Yudit, who had escorted Isiah back to her seat, also sat down. The guests were eating and chatting about the performance. Isiah, who had been silently gazing at the dessert, finally spoke. “Thank you for giving me this opportunity.” “I should be the one thanking you. Thanks to you, I was able to get through a difficult moment. It was truly… a beautiful song.” Isiah took a spoonful, then set the spoon back down. “The days will grow colder soon. You shouldn’t visit the gravesite at…-

The princes did not usually express such clear opinions about other countries because they were not emperors. This could result in a rift with the emperor. However, Yudit was certain that the harmony between Herut and Adanauer was exactly what the emperor desired. Cooperation with Herut was essential if they were to establish relations with the countries beyond the desert. The soldiers of Adanauer didn’t even know how to face the sand monsters, let alone endure the desert. And if the emperor hadn’t…-

Yudit, like every other morning, headed towards the banquet hall. The hall, bathed in sunlight, looked entirely different from the night before. Yudit paused for a moment to gaze at the dust particles floating in the light before picking up the cleaning tools he had brought. Thankfully, the servants had at least tidied up the hall somewhat, so there wasn’t much left for Yudit to do. A quick sweep and wipe would suffice. The tapestries were rolled up and neatly placed in a corner, and the cloths and…-

“…What did you say?” “As Wadiram mentioned before, the desert can hide one person easily,” Huyan said with a serious expression. Yudit realized that he was being sincere. “…Why?” “Because if you stay here, you’ll die.” “…” “You did mention that when someone ascends to the throne in Adanauer, all their siblings are killed, right?” Yudit understood that Huyan was genuinely concerned for him, which softened the wound left by his earlier words. “The prince…-

After Yudit crawled out of the hole, he stood up and brushed off his robe. It had dirt all over it from crawling, but since the clothes weren’t that clean to begin with, it didn’t matter. Yudit adjusted his robe, pressing it down, and blended into the crowd. As Yudit looked around the market, he made his way to the candy shop at the corner of an alley. The shop had no customers, probably because of the almost completely faded sign or the cobwebbed display case. Even the shopkeeper was missing, so…-

“Is the dance performed when it rains something that is set in tradition?” “Of course. There is a dance that has been passed down through the family for generations. If you get it wrong, you’ll be punished quite harshly.” “Is, is that so?” Wadiram said with an expression that was hard to tell whether he was joking or serious. “It’s a joke.” Wadiram chuckled, and with a hearty laugh, he ran ahead, still a bit tipsy from the beer. “I’ll show it to Yudit…-

“…….” It had been an oddly vivid dream. Even after waking, Yudit couldn’t collect his thoughts for a while. Just then, someone approached him. As if by habit, Yudit reached between the bed and mattress, clutching his dagger close. “Your Highness, you’re awake?” The nanny approached with a damp towel in her hands. Was he still dreaming? “Nanny, wasn’t your leave until tomorrow?” “It was. But I came back early. Your Highness has been pushing himself too hard lately. I…-

“Hey, Huyan. Why would you say that? I was going to say it myself.” “……?” “I’m sorry, Your Highness. The truth is, I already knew. I just wanted to see how far you’d go for us, so I acted a bit spoiled. But you really did everything for us.” “……I see.” “So, there’s no need to worry.” “If Your Highness had even looked slightly displeased or angry, I would’ve stopped right away. But you didn’t. I honestly wondered if you were really a prince.” Yudit…-

Yudit. A name that softened the heart just by pronouncing it. Their first meeting had been strange from the start. Though he was a prince, he mingled among the servants. Even at Reginald’s banquet, he hadn’t been invited, instead watching them from a neighboring building until he was discovered. Huyan had thought him an assassin, or at least a spy of Adanauer—but he turned out to be a prince of Adanauer. He didn’t seem to be treated like a prince, though. When Huyan learned he had held a…-

Yudit slept through the entire morning and only woke up in the afternoon. By the time he woke, the delegation had already left. Wadiram had also mentioned that he would accompany them only to the border. Yudit wondered if he would stay at the imperial palace in Adanauer, but that was not the case. He had rented a house separately and would stay there. He mentioned that he had to rent a warehouse anyway, given how many things Azil had given him, and invited Yudit to visit once everything was sorted…-
