— I would be honoured. However, I wonder if the place is proper for the lady to visit. —
— Oh, I would look from afar... I would not want to distract or interfere with the knights’ training... I promise, Your Highness. A quiet visit it will be. —
—... If so, I will be expectant to see you, my lady. Solely recall there may be so rough exercises while you are there, so the n are bound to be noisy. —
’Hehehe~... I managed to convince him quite easily.’ — Now, as I prepare for my stroll at the Empress’s garden, recalled victorious the agreent he gave to my lovely idea. Actually feeling a tad surprised at how my personality was evolving so quickly into a more consistent self... that for now I only believe is off in the way I’ve ended up expressing myself from ti to ti. The words used seem to have little balance sohow...
Nevertheless, when it cos to this victory, the mont he ntioned training, it was as if my instincts flared up knowledgeable of what I should do and there would be no chance for the thought to be taken away.
It was my whole self telling ... that I should witness such activity at all costs... That I should go and show my support to the muscle- to the n who arduously protected the Empire with their abs- hearts...
... To support a handso crown prince that will be training... those marvellous arms... a-and hands...
’Hehe... Why do I correct myself anyway?... So things change and so do not... I am as eager to have glimpses of his body but now I also feel shaful to be this excited about it... before I would simply take the chance without a hint of sha... Goodness my... hopeless I am...’
... Either way, it is sure to be a sight and I will not lose the chance.
That night he ca to after so training was enough to make want to see it. How he gets all sensually sweaty... heh... A bad girl I am... but I am sure I will survive this sha with wonderful mories. My daydreams will surely appreciate it which is enough comfort for my current conscience.
’... mories of his torso, his back also... hehe... shiny arms...’ — I thought, imdiately feeling the remorse that I would still ignore. — "Sigh. Control yourself, Marianne. You are a Lady. Behave and don’t let anyone know the truth... or it will stay a daydream."
"Did you say sothing, my lady?"
"... uh, nope. Nothing. I was just wondering if I should take my stack and my tools with . I do not plan on staying long at the Empress’ Garden but... I am not sure, truthfully." — I answered Paige, who was currently organizing the gifts I was given yesterday. Knowing that if I did not distract her with so other matters she would inquire further. — "... Nevertheless, those are a lot of gifts... These are all that the assistants to my birthday sent?"
"Ah... Well, my lady. The ones from the assistants to your tea party are over there. anwhile, these I am bringing in at the mont are so that the people from the city left at the doors of the Palace. Word was spread in every corner and many ca to leave a present for you before the day ended."
"... These are all flowers... oh... there are also letters and drawings... oh, my! Pastries as well... and so carefully packed... These are all from the people you say?" — I said taking so in my hands as I paced around. Overwheld by the quality and the price the people must have paid to get these for myself.
"Yes. There were more, however, it was not possible to get them here. We also needed to be careful with what was allowed. Otherwise, your chambers would be full of them. I heard so even danced under the moonlight at the entrance to celebrate in your honour." — Paige said, proud of the effect my simple birthday invoked on the Empire’s people.
"Oh... I would have loved to see that... I cannot believe they did this for ."
"As the ninth, the people wish your happiness and well being for it also represents the empire’s future. If the ninth is treated with warmth, then the Empire will be blessed in return. Surely in other cities they also celebrated. What they did will be learnt shortly and certainly, my lady."
"Hm... is that how it is? I guess I will need to take my ti opening each of them after my stroll to properly see what they gave ." — Knowing I should pay attention to the lovely presents the people had prepared, I told this to the busy Paige, who was arranging them in my chambers as we spoke. Bearing new anticipation to the ti I made it back to co so this mountain could be opened by my hands.
’There must be probably so letters and snacks or little crafts they made as well...’ — I thought after giving the mountain a glance. Moved by how nice a touch this was when little did they know about . — ’How lovely it is that they even made this effort for ... I should get myself more close to the people... they seem to like for the title and I feel like I should actually do things for them after this...’
My sense of responsibility appeared to kick in the more I thought it was unfair to let them like myself for no solid reason. And so, I felt determined to craft opportunities from here on to et the people.
"Sir Vitor and Sir Theodore, will you co with ?" — I asked rrily as I ca closer to the doors so I could do as once inford. Already knowledgeable of the answer they would grant.
"Yes, my lady." — Vitor said, bowing respectfully along with Theodore.
I nodded, glad to see I was right... Yet stopping for a second as I felt an espontaneous need to say sothing more.
