Despite to his worries about Lucien not paying attention, he was focused, taking notes. After that, Gavin continued his lecture on ancient civilization. The content was easy for Kian, but with the help of drawings and pictures, it was interesting enough. “That will be all for today. Tomorrow we will study the lineage of the Gold Dragon, guardian of the Celestia Kingdom.” As soon as class ended, the princess ran up to Kian. “Do you want to go eat fruit skewers?” Considering the…-

Well-warmed soup and fresh salad were placed on the table. Kian scooped a spoonful of soup and ate before speaking. “Why act like it must be hidden? You are more comfortable like this than yesterday, are you not? When your body grows, you need new clothes and more trouble.” “I do not want you to look down on me.” Kian’s fork, reaching for salad, stopped in the air. “You are mistaken. I do not look down on you, Lord Lucien.” “But since my body shrank, you only think I am cute.…-

Kian blinked rapidly and stuttered. “W-why, why are you doing that?” Lucien looked at Kian with a smile. “I did nothing.” Kian felt foolish for being startled. ‘I cannot just let myself be dragged along.’ He had a secret weapon. ‘If nothing else works, I knock him out and keep him unconscious until morning.’ Thinking of subduing him by force made his heart settle. In the end, people had to live the way they always had. “Shall we sleep now?” Kian glanced at…-

Kian realized a point he had not thought of before and he apologized again. “I am sorry for everything. I was careless.” “But if that is the path given to you, then it cannot be helped.” Whether he was timid or bold, Kian could not tell from those words. Together, they entered the palace. When the door opened, Ibrahim was on the floor at the entrance, bowing with his head down. In a desperate voice he said, “I have committed an unforgivable sin against you both! Please cut off this…-

“……!” As the hall fell into shock, Kian asked calmly, “Is this not enough?” The pope wiped the sweat running down his forehead and answered, “Ah, hmm… Forgive me, but there is also a time for the bride to kiss the groom.” “I see.” Kian tapped his own lips with his index finger. “Kiss me, Lord Lucien.” “I…” “You do not need to listen to talk about the first night. That experience, I have more than enough. I will share some of my overflowing…-

The startled people turned their eyes toward where it had come from. Then another stone flew from the same direction. Bang! No, this time it was not a small stone but a rock. The side of the carriage dented in the shape of the rock. People hit by the fragments frowned and looked around, ready to voice their complaint against the one who had thrown it. But Kian had been watching the man even before the stone flew. A face pale like it had been smeared with white ash. Features with nothing…-

The conversation veered off track. One was too nervous, the other not nervous at all. Kian had decided the boy was unwell, he had other thoughts. ‘I’ll have Ibrahim ask later what this was about.’ He didn’t want to trouble a sick child for a message. “And? Is that all?” “…Do it.” “What should I do?” “Marr…iage. Marry me.” “You want me to decide something?”1 “Yeah.” Kian nodded calmly. “Understood. I’ll tell him that’s what you…-

Because of that, even when the king prepared this tournament to help him find a mate, he never expected Lucien would find one so easily. All the more so in this tournament. But Lucien did find one. And unable to contain his joy, he had barged into the king’s office. ‘I have never seen anyone so beautiful in my life!’ ‘The moment I saw him, I felt like I couldn’t breathe. That is how pretty he is.’ ‘Do you know, Eddie? Everything around him looks pitch black, as if he absorbed…-

Kian stroked the goat’s back. The little goat rubbed its head against his leg, acting cute, it liked the touch. Kian crouched down so their eyes were level and petted its head. “Come to think of it, I was waiting for your master.” Baa. “Do you know where your master is?” Baa. “If you do, won’t you tell me?” Baa. As if such a question was too hard, the goat buried its small head into Kian’s chest. Since it was already leaning against him, Kian lifted it into his…-

“Telling those preparing for war to stop is useless. They are already intoxicated with themselves. So there is only one way to stop them. Break their intoxication. In other words, take away their ‘justification.’” “By justification, you mean…” “What drove them into such fierce confrontation?” “The Blood Harvest. The conflict worsened over the matter of compensation for the slain of Chronos.” “Then that is where we begin. Clarify the rights and wrongs of that incident.…-
