76.
Unlike the other two who confidently expressed their opinions, it was difficult for Ban to even say it. Because I know that, the way I look at my class becos more sorrowful.
Without realizing it, Richt stretched out his hand and cupped Ban’s hesitant cheek. Van’s eyes, which had been dark and sunken the whole ti, catch the light and sparkle. It was so pretty that I couldn’t look away.
‘Can I throw away half?’
A question suddenly occurred to . Can he leave this place behind, this person he feels he cannot live without? Richt bit his lip gently. His mind beca confused with indefinable emotions.
“half.”
When the na is called, Ban’s expression changes. I just called one na, so why am I so happy? As she looked at her brightly blooming face, her Lichtian expression also lted. She had sothing to say. The mont she opened her mouth, a loud cry ca from behind her.
“Uh huh huh.”
Theodore was crying again. The cause is obviously Abel. Richt sighed and turned around. When I glared at Abel, he gave an expression that seed unfair.
“I know what you’re thinking, but it’s not .”
No, it doesn’t an anything.
“It’s not real.”
Abel looked down at Theodore, who was sitting on the sofa, with a shocked expression. Richt sighed. That guy was so well-bred that he easily said things that could hurt others, so he must have said sothing to Theodore.
Richt approached Theodore and lowered his body to make eye contact.
[But why is she crying?]
[I don’t know either? I guess I suddenly got sad.]
[Why am I sad?]
[You don’t know?]
Ignoring the spirits whispering behind , I spoke to Theodore, who was still sobbing.
“Stop crying.”
“But, don’t do it.”
Although Theodore was a mature child, he sotis showed signs of being his own age. Maybe that’s why he was more interested. Richt patted Theodore’s head. It was sothing he shouldn’t have done to the Crown Prince, but he knew Theodore wouldn’t bla him for it.
“What should I do to stop crying?”
When I asked him sweetly, Theodore hesitated and said,
“pancake.”
“yes?”
“I want to eat hotcakes.”
I left the recipe behind. When I looked at him with a puzzled gaze, Theodore spoke as if making an excuse.
“What Richt makes is more delicious than what the imperial palace bakers make.”
Is that possible? They are carefully selected skilled workers who work in the imperial palace. Even though I thought that, I didn’t feel bad. That’s how delicious his bread was.
“Then would you like to make it for you?”
Theodor nodded to Richt’s question.
“It will take a while.”
“Can I watch from the side?”
“There is nothing that cannot be done.”
After calming Theodore down like that, Abel intervened this ti.
“Mine too.”
“Why should I make one for Archduke Graham?”
“I’m sorry. “You called Abel just now.”
stop. Richt raised his eyebrows.
“I don’t rember.”
“Then shall I remind you?”
Abel grins and looks down at the floor. Since it looked like they were going to repeat what happened earlier, Richt decided to leave the room quickly.
“Then let’s move places.”
Perhaps thinking this was tacit permission, Abel followed along with Theodore. As soon as Van left the room, she naturally stood next to Richt.
“Are you out?”
Ain was waiting outside the door. He had been summoned before he knew it, and Ferdi was also there.
“I see you, His Majesty the Crown Prince.”
Ferdi bowed gracefully.
“It’s been a while. “Sir Ferdi.”
“Yes, it’s been a while. “I think this is the first ti since Your Majesty created the wanted badge.”
Horses have bones. It’s so cold that I can’t even believe it’s being said to a child.
“It was a misunderstanding.”
“A misunderstanding?”
Ferdi raised the corners of his mouth. How could that man smile like that? Richt was surprised by the unexpected appearance.
“okay. Misunderstandings are dangerous. So, to avoid any further misunderstandings, I will take you to the imperial palace. I have already contacted you. The aide was surprised. “I think you’d better pass away quickly.”
“I haven’t finished my business yet.”
“Did you have business to do?”
“there is.”
“I don’t know what it is, but how about putting it off until later? “The head of the family has not recovered his health yet.”
At those words, Theodore looked up at Richt with a worried expression.
“Does it hurt a lot?”
No, that’s faking it. But I couldn’t tell the truth. Ferdi is Devine’s vassal. Although he found Theodore cute, he couldn’t bring himself to humiliate Ferdi in front of him.
“I’m almost done.”
“Then get so more rest. “You can eat hotcakes next ti.”
Theodore answered bravely. Although this may seem affectionate, Ferdi’s expression is still hard.
“Then it has been decided.”
Ferdi’s gaze moved from Theodore to Abel.
“Then it will be up to Archduke Graham to serve you.”
It seems like the intention is to deal with those who are botherso all at once.
“I have work to do too.”
“Is there a problem?”
In response to Ferdi’s question, Abel looked at Richt with a sly expression.
‘Can I tell you?’
It was a questioning look. Richt smiled kindly at Abel and spoke softly.
“Did you say it? Then there will be no next ti.”
Abel changed his attitude when he heard the next word.
“Okay, then I will serve your highness.”
Ferdi looked suspiciously at Abel, who suddenly retreated, but that was the end.
“I will prepare a carriage.”
Finally, Ain finished the story. Theodore said a heartfelt goodbye before leaving.
“Just a little bit longer and it’s my birthday. Please co to the birthday party. Definitely, definitely.”
“Yes, I will definitely go.”
Only after receiving the promise did Theodore get into the carriage.
“Then I’ll co back.”
Abel waved his hand and mounted his prepared horse.
“You don’t have to co back.”
Ferdi added coldly, but he wasn’t in the mood to listen. Abel ignored Ferdi and ran his horse after the moving carriage. Devine’s door closed, and Ferdi spoke as he passed by.
“You better be careful when dating people in the future. Archduke Graham is a self-indulgent person, and there is no benefit in keeping him close to him. And so does the Crown Prince.”
In the past, Richt hated Ferdi. Because he was considered a person who ddled in everything and was a hindrance.
‘But the foundation of it all is love.’
Look at the other vassals. Despite the previous Duke’s urging, Richt did not move until it beca truly dangerous. In contrast, Ferdi stayed near Richt even after the danger was over.
I guess the reason I stayed away from him before was because I knew Richt disapproved of him, so I avoided him first.
“I can’t believe it was a mistake to put up a wanted notice.”
Ferdi clicked his tongue as if he was displeased. As he looked at it, he rembered what he wanted to say.
“Thank you for your concern.”
Ferdi, who had been complaining, suddenly stiffened and slowly made eye contact with Richt. He blinked his eyes a few tis and then slowly raised the corners of his mouth. He was different from the sneer he showed towards Theodore and Abel. Now he was laughing heartily.
A warm atmosphere flowed between the two.
“As a vassal, it is natural to worry about the head of the family.”
Ferdi cleared his throat and covered his mouth with his hand.
“I will continue to work harder in the future. “Then I have so work to do, so I’ll leave first.”
And then he disappeared with light steps.
“I have work to do, so I will step down.”
When Ain, who had been watching with joy from the side, disappeared, only half of the people remained.
“Shall we go in too?”
Richt asked and Van nodded.
The carriage carrying Theodore ran quickly and arrived at the imperial palace.
“Your Majesty the Crown Prince!”
The aide ca running to Altain with a stiff expression on his face and said.
“Do you know how much I was worried? “I searched and searched, but I couldn’t find it, so I felt sick to my stomach.”
Since it should not be known to the outside world, it would have been more difficult to find it secretly.
“As I was worrying about what to do about this situation, soone from Devine Street ca and said that Theodore was there. Do you know how surprised I was? “I thought my heart was going to drop.”
Altain was now starting to cry.
“Still, I’m glad you’re safe.”
Altane’s eyes sharpened at Abel’s sudden intervention.
“Are you saying that? No, now that I think about it, where was Archduke Graham? Are you really at the Devine family as rumored? yes?”
Abel lightly shrugged his shoulders.
“Oh, my God. “Are you crazy?”
“Maybe so.”
“oh my god. “I can’t believe you were there in this situation.”
“What is this situation?”
Altain heated up at the blunt answer.
“Do you know how many Shinigami have gathered now? “You’ve managed to deal with Theodore so far, but don’t you know that it’s difficult?”
“Why, because the crown prince is so easygoing?”
“Archduke Graham!”
Altain shouted in horror. It wasn’t wrong, but to say it out loud in front of the person involved. He is also crazy.
“are you okay. “I don’t get hurt by those words.”
Theodore spoke proudly to Altain.
“Master Theodore.”
“Altain, I’m fine.”
Altane looked like he was going to burst into tears at any mont, but he held it back.
“It’s not like I didn’t know that Archduke Graham was that kind of person. “It seed a little crazy to begin with.”
Theodore calmly mocked him in front of Archduke Graham.
