Nina could feel his fingertips trembling as he grabbed her hand.

“That’s it, I…”

The prince forgot to say hello and stuttered, Nina got off the carriage and said.

“Are you surprised?”

“Yes, I was surprised. I thought you’d definitely wear a uniform……”

“Then it’s no fun.”

“Right, right.”

Not knowing what he was agreeing to, Faradiv only agreed. He would have agreed if Nina had said, “The Empire is not so good.”

“Oh, Viscountess Dell, your clothes suit you very well.”

Lady Adele walked in from behind and gave her a shout. Nina replied humbly.

“The designer that Lady Adele introduced me to was very good.”

“Please entertain this person with this appearance sometimes.”

“Of course.”

“Then would you like to come inside? We have reserved a seat on the back terrace.”

“I liked hearing that.”

“What do you mean?”

“The word ‘a place on the terrace’.”

As the two advanced side by side, waving the hem of their dress, Faradiv sighed and followed behind. For some reason, in front of Nina, he seemed to keep showing only his stupid and dull side. But he couldn’t think of a compliment because he was suffocated. Just like when he saw the rising sun, he couldn’t help but hold his breath and admire it.

‘Calm down, Faradiv. Wake up.’

She came today to tell an important story. I can’t keep looking like an idiot.

Faradiv took a long breath in and moved his steps with strength. On the back terrace was a table decorated with flowers. Lady Adele, who was already pouring tea, offered Faradiv a seat.

As he sat down, Lady Adele stepped back, filling his glass and leaving a polite word or two. The sun was shining on the terrace in midsummer, but the grapevines provided a cool shade.

The dark green leaves glistened, and the grape clusters opened in the middle looked like olivine decorations. The sunlight scattered through the leaves and fell on the teacups and teapots, the pure white ceramics and the gilt decorations, sparkling like new.

The small drops of sunshine that looked like a decoration shook around every time the wind blew.

Nina blew hot tea afterward.

Cling.

With a small sound, her teacup was covered with thin ice.

‘Cold tea in the summer is a must-have.’

She looked around her and leaned over to Faradiv and whispered.

“Do you like cold tea, Prince?”

“What? Yes, of course. Bring me some ice…”

When Nina reached out her hand, his tea also froze. Even the tea in the hot pot was pleasantly cold.

“Convenient.”

Faradiv murmured.

The tea he had a sip of was chillingly cold, but it was just a pleasant temperature in summer. A pleasantly cool breeze blew moderately.

“So what were you doing alone, in a dangerous situation?”

His eyebrows drooped at Nina’s words.

“Naff already scolded me a lot.”

“You deserve to be scolded.”

Nina looked straight, and Faradiv shrugged his shoulders. He saved his life thanks to her, so he had nothing to say back.

Nina said.

“They were like knights.”

“That’s right.”

Faradiv smiled bitterly. Looking at the prince with a strange expression, Nina asked

“Are you saying that it’s natural to be chased by a knight?”

“The majority of the Lily Knights have long since passed to Vialentel. The knight commander has also been changed.”

“What?”

“You didn’t know? It was said that Sir Benzel has been removed from his post. So, rumors are circulating that they are creating another division, rather than only reorganizing the Knights of the Lilies.”

It was a story about whether it was possible to move the main personnel of the Lily Knights and create the new Knights of Vialentel.

“I see.”

It would be nice if that was the case.

No wonder she felt ominous.

Watching Nina lost in thought, Faradise asked.

“Are you worried?”

“What?”

“Lord Benzel. It seems that you have some personal exchanged…”

The shock of witnessing the scene where she was eating with Benzel was still vivid. Nina nodded her head.

“Yes, a little bit. But there is nothing I can do about worrying about it. So do you think you were chased by the Lily Knights?”

No matter how much of a battle for the throne this is, isn’t it too much to touch the imperial family while being an Imperial Knight?

Faradiv laughed at Nina’s words.

“That’s why you can put your hands on it. Because I’m the last line standing.”

“It makes sense if you say it like that.”

“But it was probably not just the Knights of the Lilies who came after me that day.”

“Temple Knights?”

At Nina’s words, Faradiv opened her eyes and exhaled her breath.

“I keep forgetting the skills of the Duke of Luverne. Yes, the Temple Knights. What I found that day.”

His expression darkened.

“It’s proof that my sister is conducting human experiments.”

“!!”

The tea shook.

Nina carefully placed the teacup on the pedestal.

“If it’s evidence…?”

“This is a letter between her and The Cult.”

“Wow, Your highness the Prince.”

Nina was speechless.

“It is a miracle that you are still alive.”

“It’s a miracle made by my Spirit Queen.”

Nina put her fingertips to her cheek and sighed theatrically at him.

“You really should be grateful.”

Faradiv laughed involuntarily. Looking at those slender fingers of her, it’s hard to believe that she beat someone to death with her fist.

Don’t be fooled by what one sees.

This proverb is eternal because man always goes beyond what is seen.

“How did you end up going to such a place?”

“A maid close to my sister often went out of the castle because she had a lover. That’s where it started.”

He smiled

That day bellac came in while he was at the ballroom. The timing was so good, the idea didn’t leave his mind. Perhaps there was a connection between the Cult, the Temple, or the Cult and Vialentel.

Naff dismissed it, saying, ‘It’s nonsense.’ But Faradiv kept his ground and with that idea, he started chasing it down.

“The detailed story is boring, so I will skip it. I thought I should check it with my own eyes, but what I saw there…”

His expression darkened.

I still get goosebumps thinking about what I saw there. I’m glad it’s in a bright place. I’m glad it’s midday.

Nina put her hand on his arm. Startled, he looked at Nina and she said.

“I’m sorry, you saw something that should not be seen, but I ask that you tell me about it.”

“No. Hmmm, what I saw were horribly disfigured corpses. There was equipment that I didn’t know what they were, and there were bellacs locked in one side.”

‘I think I saw it somewhere.’

Wasn’t that the place where we rescued Fiona?

“I took the opportunity and came out with a bunch of papers. I never thought that there would be a letter from my sister there. I am…….”

Faradiv clenched his fist.

“Some asked me to kill them. Some asked me to save them. I couldn’t do anything, so I just run away…”

“Prince.”

Nina called to him, but he didn’t lookup.

“Faradiv.”

As she shook him by calling his name, Faradiv looked up at Nina, startled.

“It’s okay. You did what you could.”

Her hand on his arm was warm, and her golden eyes remained unshakable.

Nina smiled faintly.

“So breathe.”

Faradiv exhaled a long breath as if relieved at that moment and coughed. He calmed himself and say.

“For some reason, I keep showing only my bad side.”

“Bad side?”

Faradiv laughed at Nina’s joking remarks.

“So what are you going to do?”

“After the ball is over, I plan to bring the evidence to my father.”

“You won’t spread it first? Shouldn’t it be a special headline in front of everyone?”

“Because I am also a member of the royal family.”

Faradiv said so with a bitter smile. It would be best if Vialentel was quietly dismissed because of this. What would the people think about the rumors that the royal family had started conducting human experiments?

It would be the first time the criticism is thrown at Vialentel, but in the end, the credibility towards the imperial family will hit the floor. Father must know that such a situation will come.

“Even if it doesn’t work, she will be confined.”

Nina asked.

“And if it doesn’t work?”
