Chapter Seventeen | Flaunting Marks

JUST AS AFTER (Name) got dressed and ready for the day, she was met with an unexpected visitor. It was Dabi.

As far as (Name) knew, it wasn't that long ago when Dabi became her father's advisor. The former advisor went missing, everyone assumed he abandoned his duties for being unable to help (Name)'s father in solving the dispute in Magus. Dabi, who has been working in the court of King (Last Name), was promoted to be the advisor because according to everyone, (Name)'s father is impressed by his wits and calm demeanor.

(Name) is not that close with him and in fact, Dabi is not that close with everyone in the House of (Last Name) except for her father. She doesn't even know if Dabi has a quirk or not and is unaware of his background.

"Dabi," (Name) addressed and he bowed, "what brings you here?"

(Name) was quite worried something happened in Magus again for Dabi to come here so personally. But it seems that it wasn't the case when he pulled out an envelope.

"I came here Your Majesty, to deliver your father's letter."

She raised a brow, thinking how his father bothered to sent his advisor just to give a letter.

Dabi gave the letter to her.

"Thank you." (Name) said, opening the letter while the man waited at the side.

(Name) read the letter. Her father told her the financial help was given although it did not reach to the amount that was promised. Bakugou deliberately reduced the amount and (Name)'s father thinks that he's still mad for what she did. He then wrote about the coup. He asked (Name) about her preparation for the coup, whether or not she had started and found a way to overthrow her husband.

Her father then told her to write to him about it and that she should not worry that someone will discover about what she's writing as her father sent Dabi to be the only one to deliver and receive the letters between them.

(Name) did what she's told.

She wrote to her father about the coup and how she's still working on getting a very important ally from the court. She also wrote about the issue of the court pressuring her to have an heir, to which (Name) said she refused to do so. Somewhere between it, she mentioned the mistress and how it's a good thing that someone is distracting her husband so she can focus on her coup.

As soon as (Name) sealed the letter to an envelope, she gave it to Dabi.

"Thank you for coming here personally, it must be tiring."

The man held a lazy smile. "Not at all, Your Majesty. It is my duty."

(Name) smiled and watched as he secured the letter.

"I must go now."

"All right, thank you and take care on your way back."

The man nodded then bowed again before he went out of her room.

When (Name) was left alone to herself in her chambers, she decided to got outside and maybe meet up with Mina and the others.

(Name) strolled around the the palace to find her friends, she was met with the nobles who are still whispering about something. But (Name) noticed they haven't given her those snarky looks yet, maybe they forgot about the rumour between her and Midoriya and found something new to talk about.

"Have you seen the marks on her neck?"

"So inappropriate, flaunting it around the place..."

"So vulgar..."

(Name) heard their whispers, she furrowed her brows and wondered what they're talking about. Then, she shook her head thinking that she has more important things to ponder.
