Second Crown Prince Cedric Jeanne Hermeia, who was walking down a corridor lined with skewed paintings of generations of emperors, stopped at the footsteps coming from the front.

The wide and long corridors, where the sun slips in through large windows lined up at equal intervals, are shady and invisible in the back. But this is a painting of the Imperial Castle, where only the royal family is allowed in and out. My beloved fiancée and friends are not allowed to step foot in this hallway, with a limited number of people going wrong, etc.

- Cedric.

The footsteps, which regularly echoed this one, this one, and this one, stopped in the shadow of the two ahead windows.

"... brother. That's unusual. I didn't mean to come to this place."

I wanted to force myself to lift the sinking mood, and I was so sarcastic.

There are only four people who can walk through this section, which is the residence of the royal family. Himself, his father, the emperor, his grandmother, the empress, and this half-brother. But this brother does not live in this section when he returns to the Crown Prince, but is amazing in the old castle of the ragged woods. My father cared badly about that.

My brother wondered if I could ever forgive my family again.

(Ridiculous)

Cedric hates his father. I have no choice but to hide or protect my half-brother because she is such a good and lamenting demon king, just an emperor flushed around and by the Empress and eventually abandoned her. A selfish father who secretly sighs at not being as good as his brother while keeping Cedric to his reasons for abandoning his brother for saying he was grateful you were born.

That father doesn't even realize that he didn't abandon his brother and that he was truncated by his brother.

"Did you finally think you'd be back here? Out of that woodland castle."

"No, it's a call from the Empress"

"From your grandmother? This is probably even new poison."

I hate my grandmother too.

My concubine will make you emperor. You don't have to worry about anything. Yes, there's only one reason to whisper like a demon. Because he's not my half-brother, that's all. Cedric is just a doll. I'm obsessed with your brother. If it's the child of that hateful woman, the woman's feud is ugly everywhere.

"I'm sad for you. Don't let them kill you at best, brother."

"I'm sorry. I'm always worried about you."

"Worried? You're as relaxed as ever. We're fighting to be emperors."

"It's not me and you who are fighting, is it?

- Brother, ha. What about my half-brother who has a stomachache.

Cedric gently dropped his gaze diagonally and threw it away.

"It's me and my brother. I'll be emperor."

"For your fiancée?

"Yes, I am."

No one sees themselves. I just pushed my brother's replacement role as the Crown Prince. But if you work hard and get results, you'll understand someday, that's what I've been playing "Good Crown Prince" for a long time. While I dull my true self.

It was Lilia who soothed me like that. If that Lilia wants.

"Even my brother will be emperor because Eileen wishes so."

Eileen, a former fiancée, was a woman who wanted to be queen. So now he switched from himself to his brother. That's all. It doesn't make sense if you don't get it, no matter what they say you admired.

Towards Cedric, who bites his lips, his brother approached him making noises with this one. Under the sun, the beauty of mortally detached demons is exposed. My expression barely moves because my brother's emotions change the weather around him. If you see someone who doesn't know what's going on, you'll wonder if they don't have feelings.

But if you look at it properly, you'll see. Like a slightly gentle floating smile.

"You're really, really mean. If you don't know what to do, you can honestly talk to him. I'm your brother."

"... could you stop looking strangely happy. Now what?"

"Then just one thing, I'll advise you. A man who just becomes a woman can quickly get bored."

I raised my face to a word that seemed clear of everything, but my vision was blocked by the shadow of a large palm.

He lightens his head once and shakes off his hand after looking at him. Staring silently, my brother laughs clearly this time.

"Eileen will be taken to a night club hosted by the Crown Princess tomorrow. Don't be evil."

It was Lilia's words that came through then.

- Doesn't Cedric like Irene?

- Brother! Lilia's got something going on. "

About three steps ahead, Claude looked back.

"You should be careful.... That's all I can say."

I can't wait to see the sight from my brother and Cedric moves forward fast. Cover your back teeth and never look back.

I just left the residential block for the royal family, and my childhood friend Marks was waiting for me.

"How was your visit with the Empress?"

"They're going to push me to the emperor unchanged. He seems angry that his father took the liberty of returning his brother to the Crown Prince, and he's already rooted for it. He said he'd give Lilia a dress later."

"Then you're relieved. Now the only leading nobleman on the Demon King's side is the Duke Dorthrish family. Well, that's the trouble..."

"... If I had married Eileen, I would have become an emperor so much"

"You think there's more untrained now? To Eileen?"

Cedric calmly looked back at Marks with his face up.

"It's just a fact. The way we turned the Duke of Dorthrish house against our enemies was bad."

"What are you going to say? You and I were sick of the end of Eileen. Though childhood friends, there are limits. You can say whatever you want without thinking about your surroundings, do whatever you want..."

Yes. I was down to that arrogant attitude that neither myself nor Marks would reflect on. There were also concerns about how the mighty power of the Duke of Dorthrish family would expand.

But Irene can't help it because she's like her sister - even when she thought so, it did happen.

"It's good for me, but when I say it in front of the others, it's gonna be misunderstood. Don't make such inadvertent remarks. Most importantly, it makes Lilia anxious. They suspected you liked Eileen a while ago."

"... oh, you did"

I told him to hold on, and Marks moved on. I hear Lilia and the others are waiting.

More people have been around Lilia lately. If I wasn't firm on my fiancée, someone would be hurting Lilia in no time. Marks is worried about that for me.

(... makes Lilia anxious, huh?

At first I wondered if Lilia, who said she liked Eileen, had made herself anxious about something too. So what are you gonna say, Lilia? - Yes, I tried to get rid of your anxiety.

Yet Lilia looked disappointed.

I laughed at Cedric after seeing him with his tedious eyes, saying he was a boring man.

- A man who just gets tired of being a woman, sooner or later.

Slowly Cedric hides and grips his fist. That's how I saw my dear fiancée's face.

"Welcome back, Cedric. How are you, Your Highness?

Yes, she laughs.

Keep mocking the men who are just her sayings, as usual.
