“Huh?”

She suddenly cheered him up, he seemed puzzled, but Irene simply nodded her head without saying anything. As if she knew everything.

Now her shoulders are heavier. Her brother is also precious, but the future of someone who has a deep friendship with your brother is also precious.

She couldn’t let him suffer under a heinous person like his Highness, the Crown Prince.

Fortunately, this guy and Benjamin are still very young. 12 years old is an adequate age to change the future.

“I need to get to know more about his Highness, the Prince quickly, seriously.”

As Irene began to talk and focus on the book again, Elvin completely missed the timing of his confession.

‘So why do you keep saying that you need to know more about me?’

Of course, Elvin’s curiosity could not be dispelled.

Beth, a maid who had a pleasant meeting with her friend at that moment, returned with a bright face.

“The little lady of the Weber family is said to have returned safely, your Highness.”

After returning to the Imperial Palace, he sits on the window frame and reads a book, Elvin turns his head for a moment.

The knight, who pledged loyalty to the emperor, was respectfully kneeling on his knees.

Elvin closed a history book he borrowed from the library.

“Thank God.”

Actually I was worried. Maybe he’s doing something useless on part for Roger Blake.

“Are you worried for that girl?”

Elvin laughed for a moment at the Knight’s question. When he knows the true intention of that question.

Perhaps you wanted to ask if I have any special interest in the little girl.

What a hard question. It was all the more so considering that Elvin and Irene were young.

“Benjamin Webber’s mood depends on his sister’s well-being.”

So he naturally shifted the center of the story to Benjamin Weber.

The knight raised his head.

His eyes seemed to be made of faithfulness. It is an ideal look for a knight. The problem is, that loyalty is not for Elvin. His true allegiance is elsewhere. Occasionally, it was clear that he’s looking at Elvin with a glance like a spy.

Perhaps it is to observe closely whether there is any problem with his growth or whether there is trouble. And things like changes in his relationship like just now.

“To maintain your relationship with him, you were paying attention to the girl. That’s a good idea.”

Benjamin Webber’s intelligence was already famous in the capital with that quick-witted personality. So, the emperor had previously ‘commanded’ Elvin to build a friendship with Benjamin. In order to utilise that intelligence as a worker of the Imperial family.

Elvin, of course, was faithfully fulfilling that command. The son, who only learned of ‘obedience to father’ at birth, could not refuse it.

“If you keep a good relationship with that little sister, Benjamin Weber will surely be your Highness’s man.”

“Well.”

“Let’s try to buy a little gift for the girl. Any ordinary child would love it.”

Ordinary child?

Elvin recalled of a little girl writing a letter by pressing colored pencils while laying out business magazines.

No matter how you look at it, she’s not an ‘ordinary child’. It was clear just by looking at the vocabulary and interests she had.

“Why do you say that?”

When the Knight asked, Elvin shook his head.

“I’ll hurt Benjamin Webber’s feelings if I give her a gift. It’s okay if we get along, but I don’t want to complicate things.”

It still bothered me that Irene’s interests included ‘The Crown Prince’. Probably if she had been an ordinary 8-year-old child, I wouldn’t have paid attention much. Because the prince is a ‘person from a fairy tale book’ to children. So of course, interest is going to be there.

However, such children do not search for the prince while searching in business magazines.

In other words, what she cares about is Elvin himself.

Anyway, Elvin decided to change the subject in moderation. He’s been learning lately to keep his thoughts and minds out of sight naturally.

“Just, I thought it would be nice if I had an older sibling.”

“Like Benjamin Weber?”

“Yes, whether it’s a girl or a boy.”

I said this to change the subject, but I was being a little sincere.

I also have confidence to be pretty cute. He could read books or give up snacks, like what Benjamin did. He could make an umbrella for you on a rainy day, and a snowman bigger than my height on a snowy day. In general, just like how Benjamin Webber loves his sister.

“It won’t be as good as you think, sire.”

However, the knight interrupted and answered. He was full of confidence.

“……”

“The brothers outside and the brothers inside the imperial family are different.”

“That…”

“If you have a brother, you will probably have to increase your escort five times as much as you have currently.”

“Is that so.”

“Yes, it will only be a life-threatening relationship with each other.”

“Life… threatening.”

“Your Highness knows better.”

The Knight said firmly, and he eyed the book that Elvin had borrowed today. It was a history book. It is a record of the history before the Terrence dynasty was founded, and the word ‘Successor Confrontation’ is written.

He killed his brother, and crippled his brother. The stories of hating and hating each other and eventually harming their children that were raised nicely by time and age.

Elvin just laughed.

“That’s right.”

The moment I said that, I became conscious of a new subject. A human like a cruel whirlpool who draws anyone to death. Therefore, it is difficult to pay unnecessary attention to others unless it is a special case. Even if the other person is said to be a cute girl whom I like enough to want to be my sister.

No, that’s why we should stay away from her.

“Then, I’ll read my book.”

Elvin fixed his posture again and opened the book.

The knight said, ‘Then I will step back so that it does not interfere with your reading.”

He turned away, leaving only those words.

“……”

Elvin fixed his gaze on the letters.

At first glance, it looked like he was reading a book, but in fact, he couldn’t read a single word. The reason was unknown to himself.

He felt sick somewhere. Somewhere beyond his reach.

‘Come to think of it.’

That night, Irene, who was in bed, belatedly realized one thing.

‘I didn’t ask for his name.’

He was the benefactor, who helped her brother.

‘I was so happy to hear the story so seriously that I never thought of asking for his name.’

Irene grabbed the thick blanket.

Of course, the Weber family always listened to Irene’s story. But that was only consideration for their ‘little child’.

But her benefactor was different. He did not treat her like a child and listened to her story carefully.

It’s a trivial thing, but it’s very difficult. Perhaps her benefactor is a very good person.

‘I’m calling him a benefactor at will.’

A title that has already been settled.

‘Well, it’s not wrong.’

If we meet again someday, then we have to give each other our names.

It’s okay to ask my brother, but I also wanted to say hello and open up a relationship. That way, he will be able to help her brother avoid working for the vicious prince in the future.

Irene smiled satisfactorily and fell asleep. See you soon, benefactor.

* * *

The next day, as soon as Irene opened her eyes, she was led by Beth to soak her body in a warm bathtub.

“What’s going on?”

Irene asked, while lining up the ducks floating on the water. The free-spirited ducks were moving around in a circle, breaking away from the line and making Irene feel dizzy.

“You know, because the busy designers from the capital are coming to the Weber family.”

“Why?”

Irene caught the far-away duck and set it back in line.

“Why, of course.”

Beth replied, glancing at Irene, who was wrestling with the duck.

“Because of the lady’s dress. Birthday dress, I mean.”

“My birthday is spring, don’t I still have a few months left?”

“I told you. It’s the busiest designer in the capital. Of course you have to put in an order a few months earlier.”

Beth wiped Irene. Her face shines very brightly.

After taking a bath, she dried her body in a warm place and combed her hair.

While Beth was delicately combing her hair, Irene kissed the duck she had bathed.

“My lady, yesterday at the library,”

Puek.

A duck vomited water to Beth’s story and answered for Irene.

Library?

“Did you know the person you were talking to?”

“Well… I don’t know.”

I don’t even know his name.

“I know he’s a good man.”


Irene pressed the duck’s belly and drained the remaining water.

“Ah, my lady is so kind that everyone sees her nicely. No one thinks of you badly.”

There’s a lot. The group of 2 year-old vicious boys we saw yesterday.

They’re trash that can’t be recycled. No, trash would have been more helpful than they would be.

You’re just trash. Get out of earth right now!

……Oh, this wasn’t Earth.

In any case, Irene decided to conclude that her benefactor was not a bad person.

“It’s your brother’s friend. They can’t be a bad person.”

“……”
