Episode 182: I’m jealous of Your Majesty

It’s been two nights since I had a close discussion with Cecilia at Huwon.

Cecilia called me into her room her her her her. I was wondering if she was calling for an international event, but no.

“It seemed like Lucia had a clue that could lead to finding her culprit.”

“Is that really true?”

To my surprise, she nodded her head once toward me.

“And, this time too, the person who instigated it was said to have used the pseudonym M.”

That name was once given by a person who commissioned a guild to exchange black tea leaves from Lowell.

If that’s the case, it means there’s a high possibility that it’s the same person this time…

“I wonder how you identified the culprit, Your Majesty.”

“The person Lucia captured this time is the guild leader of a guild called Black Knife, and it is said that a person named M will come by in person to hear whether this operation was successful or not a few days later. Lucia is watching this and plans to follow in M’s footsteps.”

“It seems like a simple but sure method.”

“Yes.”

Cecilia looked perplexed.

“Then, can you leave evidence of that as well?”

“You don’t have to worry about that. “Lucia will take care of it.”

Her tone contained strong trust in Lucia.

Well, since Lucia is the leader of Luna, she will take care of such details meticulously.

“Just get this far for now.”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I hope you have a peaceful night.”

I bid her good night and then went back to her room.

A plan related to the parade event has finally been drawn up in a plausible manner. However, since we have not yet conducted a field trip, it cannot be said to be perfect.

Only after comparing it with the field and making several revisions can it be called a perfect plan.

“Mulia. Have you figured out the progress of the parade-related sculptures?”

As the founding of the nation slowly gets closer, the amount of documents we have to process has increased accordingly.

This time, the workload was even heavier as we had to hold a parade event for the first time in the history of the founding festival.

“I’ll check it now.”

Mulia began to look through the pile of documents that had not yet been processed. Looking at that, it seems like I don’t understand for some reason…

After a while, I found out that my prediction was not wrong.

“It hasn’t come up from the department yet, Your Majesty.”

“Was the person in charge the secretary’s office?”

Mulia answered yes to Cecilia’s question.

“Go right away and find out what’s going on.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Mulia left her office immediately. Next, Cecilia told me to bring the parade plan.

“Here it is.”

“Let’s see…”

She read the print on her document with her careful eyes. After a while she gave me her plan roll back.

“It seems like a good idea to go on a field trip today.”

“Can I go alone?”

“Go with Flora.”

As soon as Cecilia’s instructions were given, Flora let out an exclamation of joy.

“Oh! “Luke and I alone?”

“It’s a field trip. “I’m not sending you to go have fun.”

Even though Cecilia warned her, Flora had a smiling face. Maybe she’s just happy to be free from the pile of papers and to come with me.

“Yes, I know, don’t worry!”

… Do you really know this?

Well, Flora isn’t one to act rashly and cause accidents, so I don’t have to worry.

As soon as we finished lunch, Flora and I got into the carriage.

“It’s been a while since I went out alone with Luke.”

“You look very excited, Lady Flora.”

“How can you not be happy when you go with someone you like?”

Wait a minute, why the sudden confession attack…

Perhaps it was because I made a dumbfounded expression, but Flora burst out laughing.

“Young lady. “If you keep playing around, I’ll get angry.”

“Really? “I thought I’d like to see Luke get angry at least once.”

When he attacked with a smiling face, I had no ability to defend myself.

“Anyway, I work hard at my job.”

“Good!”

The carriage carrying us quickly left the imperial palace grounds. It’s been a while since I’ve seen Deleson’s cityscape and it still looked the same.

Various buildings close together and well-maintained streets. And many passers-by walking there.

People’s expressions were full of vitality. It seemed even more so because the founder of the country was closer.

“Where did you say this parade started?”

At her question her, I turned my head towards her.

“The course starts from the eastern gate, passes through the fountain in the central square, and ends in front of the imperial gate.”

“Ah, thanks to you, I remembered.”

Flora clapped her hands lightly.

It was completely understandable that she didn’t grasp this point. Cecilia and I have played a leading role in planning the parade.

After traveling for a while, the carriage reached the eastern gate. After getting off the carriage, we first looked at the main street and the surrounding buildings.

I thought it would be more efficient for me to take the left and Flora to take the right…

“I want to go out with Luke!”

Because Flora pushed her way so strongly, she eventually decided to go together.

Approximately 500 people were scheduled to participate in this parade. Fortunately, there were no tall buildings around and the streets were wide, so it seemed like we could proceed without any problems as long as we had good safety controls.

“You can see the parade in three weeks, right? I’m looking forward to it.”

Flora’s emerald eyes shine brightly.

We got back into the carriage. This time, I slowly walked back the way I came and headed toward the square.

“Mr. Luke. “I have one question.”

“What is it?”

I looked at her sitting in her seat across from her.

“If… What happened to you recently? “I think you seem strangely listless.”

Looking at Flora’s serious voice her, it seemed like she had been watching Cecilia for a few days.

Well, I could fully understand her concern. The problem was that this matter was top secret, so I couldn’t reveal it to anyone.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t talk about this.”

As I spoke in a clear tone, Flora stared at me.

“It looks like something happened…”

“Yes. But I can’t say more than that.”

“Okay…”

Flora slumped her shoulders, showing her disappointment. Eventually, a sigh escaped her lips.

“At times like this, I really envy your Majesty.”

Hmm? What does that mean?

When I tilted her head, Flora waved her hand, telling me not to misunderstand.

“I’m not saying I’m jealous of what she went through… Just…”

She looked at me subtly as she trailed off her words.

What on earth are you trying to say?

After a while, unexpected words came out of Flora’s lips

“I envy Mr. Luke for sharing all his secrets with Her Majesty Cecilia.”

I watched Flora’s cheeks turn red. As a result, I also became embarrassed.

“Then you can hire me as your secretary.”

To relieve her embarrassment, I said something and rubbed the back of her head.

“If I could, I would have done it a long time ago. But now I am His Majesty’s direct secretary.”

There was a look of sincere regret on her face.

No matter how I look at it, I feel like I said something pointless…

Just as I was wondering how to control the mood, fortunately Flora showed herself as a mood maker.

“You just got a little shaken, right?”

“Yes?”

“It seems like you want to be my secretary.”

A playful smile appeared on Flora’s face.

“When you say that, I suddenly feel less shaken.”

So I responded playfully. We burst out laughing, haha, no matter who was first.

Then Flora hit my thigh.

“Evil!”

“Joy. It’s revenge.”

Seeing her deliberately pretending to be upset, I laughed again.

After all, if you go around with Flora, you’ll never be bored.

* * *

After returning to the imperial palace with Flora, she immediately began her afternoon work.

When the grandfather clock struck 4 p.M., Cecilia suddenly called me.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“I need to go inspect the banquet hall. “I want you to come along too.”

For reference, in recent days, some of the imperial family’s employees have been deployed to clean the banquet hall and install equipment. Today, it meant that I would directly check how well it was cleaned and whether the equipment was properly placed.

“Have a nice trip!”

“Take care, Your Majesty.”

We left the office while being seen off by the two maids.

By riding a carriage, I was able to quickly reach the banquet hall. I got off first and then held out my right hand for Cecilia.

She took my hand and carefully got out of her carriage. Then he looked at me and smiled gently.

“Let’s go in.”

I followed her lead and entered the banquet hall. After Cecilia looked around the inside of the banquet hall, she walked leisurely.

I moved my head left and right and looked at the cleaning status and arrangement of equipment.

When we reached the end of the banquet hall, Cecilia turned towards us.

“It might be a good idea to reconsider the table and seating arrangements later.”

“When do you plan to start decorating the interior of the banquet hall?”

“Hmm. “If I start next week, I think I can finish it right before the event.”

“I’ll take a note when I get back to the office.”

Cecilia seemed to be satisfied with my answer and nodded her head without saying anything. Next, she went up to the podium set up in the banquet hall. The place she was heading to was her throne.

I stood next to her.

“Luke. Do you remember what we talked about at the sponsorship a few days ago?”

Cecilia fixed her gaze on the front and made a serious noise.

“Yes, I remember.”

“I said it back then. “I need to prepare to take away the power of the noble faction.”

Could it be that the banquet hall inspection was an excuse and that they brought me here to talk about this?

“By any chance, did you have something in mind?”

“I’ve been thinking about it since I told you, and I came up with a method that might work.”

“What is it?”

Because the atmosphere became quite serious, I also began to speak in a low voice.

Cecilia remained silent for a moment and then slowly turned her head in this direction. Then she told me how.

“What is it like?”

“I think it’s good, Your Majesty.”

“I’m glad you think so.”

Cecilia slowly raised the corners of her mouth and smiled softly.
