NovelEnglishAt the time, Alexandra’s cronies were screaming at her, wondering how she could talk back to His Majesty’s sister, even though she was only politely telling the truth, thinking that it was a fair reversal.
Later, the Emperor, depressed by the loss of Prince Sergei, decided to abdicate, and Magdalena became Empress. She was an unpleasant opponent, even with her clearly superior status, but Alexandra’s gradual loss of influence and irritation at Magdalena’s denial of what she produced was amusing in its own way.
“But yeah, I will be looking forward to Ekaterina’s future, although Elizabeth is a good girl too…Right?”
Elizabeth is the daughter of Yurimagna, she is ten years old, she is trying to be liked by Mikhael, she is healthy, she is lovely to look at, she will probably also grow up to be a good noblewoman, but currently she is still very young.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer father, Giorgie, once ridiculed Ekaterina at a meeting of the Three Dukes in front of the Emperor, saying that Nova’s daughter was sickly and had never been educated or had visited other families.
Even if they are trying to kick down a rival, blatantly demeaning an unfortunate girl lowers the stature of the person saying it. Mikhael’s parents, and the family of Mikhael’s wife to be, would become linked to the next Emperor. The next Emperor after him would be a relative of Mikhael’s wife’s. It would be a shame if the head himself became a source of anxiety when he was trying to promote his daughter.
The Emperor groaned thinking about this.
“However, what does Alexei intend to do with his sister?” (Empress)
Alexei did not fail to understand the meaning of clearly stating [my sister is weak] in front of the Emperor and Empress. Being an empress and even a crown princess is a difficult position. Above all, in reality, her greatest duty is to give birth to an heir. Therefore, to have good health is a major requirement.
Alexei’s words were as good as stating that Yurinova did not wish to have Ekaterina to ascend as the Empress.
“Nova is all alone with those two now, isn’t it? I wonder if he’d like to put Ekaterina in a branch of the family to help leverage the whole house. Maybe he just doesn’t want to let her go because she is so cute. But what does Ekaterina herself want?” (Empress)
At this point,both the Emperor and the Empress; the husband and wife pair glanced at their son.
“…Ekaterina is not interested in me.” (Mikhail)
Mikhael waved a hand out the window without breaking into a smile, but the tone of his voice did not sound as nonchalant as he had intended.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“The first time I spoke to her, she looked at me like I was a caterpillar. I even thought she might back away.” (Mikhail)
Ekaterina was completely aware of the fact that she was about to back away.
“I thought that might be the plan, you know?” (Empress)
“I’ve seen girls pretend to be unconcerned before, trying to get my attention. Girls are scary, aren’t they? But Ekaterina doesn’t seem to be like that. Even after the fight with the magic beast, she was so attached to Alexei that she forgot I was even there.”
It was obvious that she had forgotten that he existed.
“I thought that she was indeed a lady of Yurinova, she was calm and fighting in a defined way even though the appearance of the magic beast was so sudden, but then as soon as it was over…she cried a lot and clung to Alexie, as if she again had turned into a normal girl. When I praised her for her bravery, she also almost started to cry. That was……a bit, adorable, though.” (Mikhail)
The parents listened to their son’s words, pretending not to hear what he was saying, as he gradually continued to talk to himself.
