Today, Yudit hid in the building across, but instead of peeking through the curtains, he made a hole in them. The people on Herut’s side also spotted him. Not long after the banquet began, the windows and curtains of the banquet hall opened. It seemed as if they knew someone was on this side, as they looked over directly. Their identities were Huyan and Wadiram. Wadiram winked at Yudit. It was clear that he had made a deliberate gesture to allow him to observe openly. When a servant tried to close the…- 396.9 K • Completed
- “We greet His Highness the prince.” They bowed their heads to Yudit, in accordance with the etiquette of the Adanauer Empire. The man who had arrived late glanced up at Yudit while still bowing. Seeing Yudit rubbing his neck, the man slapped the back of Huyan’s head with his palm. “I am truly sorry. I have no idea what this madman has done. I sincerely apologize, Your Highness.” It was a grave offense to threaten a prince with a sword, one deserving of execution. But that would only be…

- Yudit wasn’t sure how he ran, but after climbing to the second floor of the adjacent building, he stuck his head out carefully and peered toward the banquet hall. Fortunately, the curtains were still drawn back. Squinting his eyes, Yudit’s lips parted in surprise. “Oh my…” Reginald had created a completely different space from the outside world. The walls were lined with tapestries, arranged according to color, the very ones Yudit had wanted to borrow. Armor, spears, swords, and other…

- “The physician said that, at this level, I might as well be a Beta.” “What about heat?” “Pardon?” “Have you ever gone into heat?” What Khalid meant by “heat” was the heat cycle—a period of estrus that Omegas experienced at regular intervals. During heat, an Omega’s chances of conception increased, and their pheromones grew more intense, luring Alphas. Since an Omega’s scent could attract Alphas regardless of blood relation, those without partners typically took…

- “I should have listened to you, Selena. I’m sorry. Because of me, we couldn’t even have our lesson.” At Yudit’s words, Selena’s eyes immediately sharpened. “Is this really the time to be talking about lessons? You need to see a physician and get proper rest.” “But—” “No!” Selena was adamant, and Yasin was no different. “The budget plan is perfect, and the banquet preparations are going smoothly. The food supply is stable, and we’ve secured all the chefs. I…

- “Take a break this time.” Back in the banquet hall, Yudit once again picked up a chair. “I can’t do that.” Despite their words, Selena and Yasin were flushed and panting. “You don’t have to help with everything. The reason I called you both today was to get your advice on the interior decorations, not to make you carry things. If this continues, I won’t be able to ask for your help in the future.” At Yudit’s firm words, Selena and Yasin hesitated before nodding. “Go…

- “Yasin is an artist.” At Yudit’s words, Yasin’s face flushed. He seemed pleased. “How can it be this beautiful? But… it’s a little sad.” Selena dabbed at the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. Yudit, too, had felt a whirlwind of emotions when he first saw the piece. If he had been alone, he might have quietly wept. “May I take a closer look?” “Yes.” When Selena gestured and spoke, mixing words with motions, Yasin nodded. Seen up close, the tapestry was even…

- “I don’t understand. Could you please speak a little slower?” At Yudit’s words, Yasin blushed, as if coming to his senses, feeling embarrassed. “How did you learn the Herut language?” “I learned it by reading books.” “That’s amazing. I still find this country’s language awkward…” Yasin lowered his head with an awkward smile. Yudit noticed that Yasin was struggling to adapt in this country. A person who came to an unfamiliar land for love, and now living alone. Was it…

- “A delegation from that country will be staying for four days.” ”…...” “Each prince will be given one day to host a banquet. Make sure yours is a success.” “May I ask what the standard for success is?” “Hmm, there are four princes left now, aren’t there?” The imperial family had six children in total. However, with the deaths of the first prince and the fourth princess, only four remained—Second Prince Reginald, Third Prince Hiore, who shared the same mother as…

- “I heard the competition has started. It’s a banquet for the embassy delegates, right?” “That’s correct. We are holding a banquet for the delegation from Herut.” Anyone who regularly read the newspapers would know about the competition. The Emperor had been heavily promoting it. While others were aware, they didn’t seem eager to discuss it. “How are you approaching the competition, Your Highness?” “I’m doing my best, in my own way.” Even if he won, the chances of him…
