Cherise pretended to be playing in the Imperial Palace garden while looking for plum trees.

Meanwhile, in the prince’s office.

“I didn’t know Her Highness could really help you.”

“Yes, it was unexpected.”

“The tiny princess has no idea how fortunate she is to have been allowed to touch your body.”

Prince Baikal and his aide, Sollip, chatted for a while rather than processing the paperwork.

The loud conversations outside didn’t bother them.

They just listened and saw her.

“Plum tree! Plum tree!”

They heard a really cute voice.

What makes her so happy to see a plum tree?

Baikal felt the corners of his lips rising without realizing it, and gently touched the corners of his lips.

Outside the window, he sees a child trying to reach a tree.

With each jump, her shiny golden hair fluttered.

“The White Night Palace is finally lively, Your Highness. Now that the rightful owner has returned, it is natural for it to be lively, and in its brilliance, even the smallest stars will twinkle.”

Looking at the same scene, Sollip smiled and adjusted his glasses.

As if he knew what Sollip was trying to say, Baikal shook his head slightly.

“She looks similar.”

“Yes. She was exactly like her.”

“She came to me without fear and held me.”

“The youngest princess was certainly like that too. She was not afraid of His Majesty.”

Cherise Wynn Castalia.

She is only four years old now.

The daughter of Kyena Wynn Karan, the youngest sister of Baikal.

But they didn’t know who the father was.

Since Kyena died leaving only the child behind, it’s really hard to find out.

“There were rumors that she was an idiot, but suddenly she was like an ordinary child. It’s strange.”

“When I questioned the nanny, it seemed certain that she was an idiot. But she suddenly came to her senses.”

“Can such a thing happen to young children?”

“Maybe it’s her plan. When she thought she had no guardian, she acted like that. But she decided that she would be able to get help when Your Highness appeared.”

“Hmm…”

Tuk, tuk.

Baikal lightly tapped the table.

It was a habit he developed while pondering.

The Castalian Empire had two rulers who divided the large nation into northern and southern territories.

However, not many knows that the real power rests with the northern emperor*

TL/N: Now that this is explained, he’s really an emperor, I’ll change his title starting from now on and edit the former ones when I have time. So yep, Prince Baikal is actually an emperor in the northern area.

They once had a sword master, a one-of-a-kind human with dragon-like abilities.

He is the first and longest-serving emperor of Northern Castalia, having reigned for more than 150 years.

Such a person had three children, two sons and one daughter.

And they were called Jane, Zyn, and Wynn respectively.

Wynn’s descendants were Baikal’s younger siblings and their children.

They can easily tell which lineage they are from their middle name.

Since the royal family was divided into three groups, the nobles were naturally divided into three factions, standing on the side of Jane, Zyn, and Wynn, and were at odds with each other.

However, four years ago, Wynn’s family suddenly dominated them.

This meant that it would not be possible for Alexandra Jane Castalia to harass Cherise Wynn Castalia.

“The castle was infested with rats while I was away.”

“It’s time to eliminate them.”

Baikal glanced down at the documents on his desk coldly.

It was material that could give someone the death penalty.

Those are confessions of sins that Cherise’s nanny and her maids said.

They had not properly served Cherise until now, as well as allocated the budget to her.

It was a daring theft.

“Tell Sophia to investigate this child’s jewelry to see if it’s true.”

“Yes. If it had been stolen that much, maybe there would be only poor quality products on that child.”

Poor quality products.

At those words, Baikal’s eyes sharpened.

Items used by the royal family should always be of high quality and pure.

A royal family needs at least gold or silver jewelry. How dare they?

“Fire the jewellerer, wait no.”

It was simple to contact Cherise and order whatever she wanted.

But it takes time.

Princess Wynn, the daughter of Kyena, lacked high-quality jewels at the moment.

“Give Sophia the right to use the stuff on the fourth floor. Tell them to bring something that suits the princess.”
