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…- 396.9 K • Completed
- 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, 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…

- No matter how things had turned out, it seemed difficult for Sonia to sing at Yudit’s banquet. Yudit had no intention of pressuring her just because she had promised. Just attending had already made Sonia a potential target. Yudit wished that Sonia would choose her own safety, even if it meant selling him out. “Brother.” Just then, someone called out to Yudit. Unlike others, the voice came from below. When he looked down, he saw Azil looking up at him. “Father isn’t feeling well, so…

- “The prince’s banquet is… similar to those in Herut, yet also quite different.” When Yudit’s expression darkened, Huyan quickly waved his hand and continued speaking. “I meant that in a good way.” “…Is that so?” “Yes. At Herut’s banquets, most of the dishes are sweet and salty. But I don’t care much for sweet things, so I can only eat a little. However, the food served at today’s banquet… I could eat to my fill without feeling burdened. It was delicious.” At…

- “Welcome, Sonia.” “I’m sorry I’m late, Your Highness.” “I’m just grateful you came at all. This way, I’ll show you to your seat.” Yudit led Sonia to her seat. She was placed at the same table as Yasin, and by coincidence, the seat next to Sonia was occupied by Wadiram. Wadiram gazed at Sonia with a look of rapture. “Hello, I’m Sonia.” “Nice to, meet you.” People eagerly took turns greeting Sonia. Although she was a commoner, she was a dominant Omega and the…

- “Your Grace, Duke Khalid.” At Yudit’s slight bow, Khalid greeted him in turn. “It is a pleasure, Your Highness.” With a leisurely gaze, he swept his eyes over the banquet hall. After taking in the entire scene, he leaned in slightly and murmured to Yudit, “You’ve worked hard.” It was a short remark, but it carried a recognition of all Yudit had endured, making him inhale sharply. With a glance, he signaled an attendant to guide Khalid to his seat. Sonia had prior…

- “The first banquet will be hosted by His Highness Reginald, the second by His Highness Hiore, the third by His Highness Azil, and the fourth by His Highness Yudit. If anyone has any objections, please speak now.” It seemed like Hiore had picked an awkward day, as his expression was not pleasant, but he did not challenge the Emperor, who had appeared in public after a long time. As the princes remained silent for a while, the attendant turned to confirm the Emperor’s wishes. When the Emperor…

- “Why? You could just do something else. Do you have to become emperor?” “Even if they don’t become emperor, they still have a claim to the throne. You never know when a rebellion might break out, so they cut off the threat in advance.” “Will Your Highness become emperor?” Wadiram asked in a worried voice. “Hmm… I want to.” But the chances were slim. If he didn’t place in the top two of this competition, he would lose his head. As Wadiram stared intently at Yudit, he…

- “Ah, speaking of which, Your Highness, how are you so good at speaking Herut? Other princes can’t do it.” “I have a friend from Herut. Actually, I wasn’t very good at it, but recently, I’ve learned a lot from that friend.” “Aha, I guess that friend is from the East.” “I’m not sure where they lived.” “It’s probably the East. There’s a bit of an Eastern accent mixed in,” Wadiram said confidently. It seemed like it was probably true, considering his…
