Chapter 19: CH 19

The sword training ended late in the evening. Michael looked tired, he even refused to eat dinner and wanted to go to bed right away.

Since it was impossible to force the Crown Prince to eat, Leticia left work earlier than usual.

“Going to the library again today?”

“Of course.”

“I wish you good luck.”

Lord George greeted me with a stern greeting as if he were dealing with a knight going to the battlefield.

“Thank you for bringing me here again today. See you tomorrow.”

Leticia greeted him politely as usual and then walked into the library.

Now that I’m quite used to the long dress, I did not fall even if I ran fast.

After a while.

Leticia leaned against the political bookshelf section, pulled out <Callas’ Introduction To Politics For The Little Master> and started reading it.

It has been three months since she became Michael’s translator. It was quite a long time, but it felt like a short time.

Leticia preferred to think she was a translator rather than something ‘nothing’.

It was a word that no one could understand, but it felt like the role became clear only when Leticia called herself a translator.

I always had to know a little more than Michael did in order to be a translator properly.

It was extremely difficult for Leticia when Michael’s comprehension always surprised Professor Schweiger.

Whenever Michael said something beyond Leticia’s comprehension, problems always occurred.

Leticia couldn’t interpret Michael’s words at all, and Professor Schweiger was immediately upset.

Fortunately, Professor Schweiger understood the situation now, but it was Leticia’s job to appeal to Professor Schweiger, who stood up several times when he wanted to quit.

‘I’m going into politics soon…. it’s better to learn it properly.’

Professor Schweiger announced in a class a few days ago that he would soon start his political class.

I’ve already learned some sense throughout history class, so he warned me that I should make progress.

It was Professor Schweiger’s consideration, but it sounded like a declaration of war to Leticia.

‘For the time being, I should learn politics in advance even though I have to sacrifice my sleep.’

Now that I think about it, I was so grateful to Lord George for giving me access to the library instead of getting a tutor.

If it were a regular tutor, it would have required a huge amount of money to teach Leticia the amount of learning she needed.

Leticia pulled out a few more books. She didn’t intend to go back until she had finished reading these books.

So it was when Leticia was in the middle of reading.

“Leticia.”

“…..Your Highness!”

Leticia shuddered. Standing in front of her was a boy who shouldn’t have been here.

“How, how did you come here…. Hurry up and go back!”

Leticia spoke quietly in fear of being caught, but she could not hide her agitation and fear.

“Orchid.”

The flower language of orchids was ‘I miss you’.

“Yes, if you missed me, you can wait until tomorrow morning. Wait, I’ve never told you that I’m going to the library, how did you know?”

“Orchid.”

“I missed you too. But you’ll see me tomorrow morning! Now it’s like a unicorn, this is like a unicorn.”

Leticia didn’t even know what she was talking about.

It was just a whimper at the thought of having to send Michael back somehow.

“What, what are the guards doing……!”

It may have been like that before, but now Michael is not growing up being neglected by people who only see him as a naughty boy.

There were countless eyes, and there was Lord George who was sincere in his service.

But how could he get out of his most heavily guarded bedroom alone, enter the library without being seen, and even find her?

“Magician.”

“Your Highness!”

Leticia was startled and made a loud noise.

Unlike highly regarded wizards, wandering magicians, who usually perform tricks in the market, were often treated as swindlers.

Michael was now proudly saying that he had tricked the guards out.

There must have been a great disturbance.

Leticia eventually put the books she had been reading back into the bookshelf and watched Michael closely.

“Your Highness, we have to go back now.”

Surprisingly, Michael broke his stubbornness and followed Leticia.

They sneaked out of the library while the librarian was away.

Leticia was frightened and unable to soothe her pounding heart.

‘I did a trick. Already.’

Of course, Leticia has also lied a lot since she ran away from home.

But Michael tricked and shunned several people simply because he wanted to see someone who was nothing like her.

‘As expected, the future will not change.’

Leticia had hope in her heart that Michael’s future as a tyrant might change.

Because Leticia’s future has already changed.

Leticia will never return to her family. Of course, she won’t have a miserable end after being used like her in the book.

‘So I thought that Michael also could change completely…..’

Leticia stopped her slow steps for a moment. Her legs hurt as she walked all the way from the library.

“I’m sorry, Let’s take a short break…. Your Highness?”

Michael was neither looking at her nor the front, but he was looking out of the corridor.

‘It’s the sky.’

Leticia soon realized what exactly Michael was looking at. Michael was not looking at the sky. He was looking at the huge full moon rising in the black sky.

She tried to wait for Michael to finish his appreciation, but even though she had rested enough, Michael’s gaze did not fall off from the moon.

“Why do you look at the moon like that? What was the reason ….”

“Brooch.”

“……!”

Michael was talking about the full moon that rose the day they met.

At the same time, Leticia realized that she had completely forgotten about the brooch Michael had given her.

‘It’s so precious!’

Leticia immediately began to apologize to Michael.

“I, I’m really sorry. It’s not because I think it’s trivial….. it’s just, things have been so hectic ….”

Instead of answering, Michael smiled brightly as if it was not a big deal. The little boy’s giggling echoed in the corridor.

Leticia thought as she smiled.

‘Yeah, who cares about the future. I just need to take good care of him for the next few years. Then Michael will be less likely to get hurt, and he will not become a tyrant.’

Leticia held Michael’s hand tightly. She felt a warm warmth.

At that moment, an unidentified feeling swept through Leticia.

In the meantime, Leticia had never felt ashamed about being too small to be a 14-year-old that everyone mistook her for a 12-year-old.

Even when she kept failing interviews to be a maid because of that. What difference will it make to resent her natural body.

But for now, Leticia wished she was bigger than Lord George.

Enough to protect Michael from anything in the world.

“Huaaa…..”

Leticia was snuggled up under the covers.

She knew she had to wake up because her eyes has been hit by the morning light, but she wanted to stay under the blanket for a few more seconds because she couldn’t sleep well last night.

Then, the maid called her up urgently.

“Miss Leticia!”

“…..?”

Leticia blinked in surprise.

Her exclusive maid, Ashley, was a bright and gentle person. She was not the type of person to make a fuss over trivial matters.

“What, what’s happened?”

“The Crown Prince has finally been invited to the Imperial Ball!”

As if someone had showered her with ice water, Leticia woke up intensely.

Leticia was shocked in two ways.

One was that Michael, the nominal Crown Prince, had not yet been able to attend a single Royal Ball. The other was that she would definitely have to go to the Imperial Ball too.

As a translator, Of course.

“When, when is it?”

“It’s in ten days. I’m so glad we have some time.”

Ashley says excitedly.

Leticia couldn’t figure out what was good for her, but now there were more important things piled up than refuting Ashley’s words.

“Did Lord George send you the schedule?”

“Not yet. As soon as he heard the news from the messenger, I think he delivered the message to this side right away. There doesn’t seem to be any rush right now, so why don’t we start with grooming you slowly?”

Leticia groaned and slid down from the bed.

“I think today is going to be a tough day.”

“Actually, so am I.”

Ashley whispered in Leticia’s ear. Leticia grinned.

“I see. You’re saying that it will be less tiring if I keep a bright thought, right?”

“This is why I like Miss Leticia.”

“This is why I also like Ashley.”

Knock knock.

Someone knocked on the door. While Ashley hurried out to greet the guest, Leticia put on her coat. It must be Lord George.

The prediction was not wrong.

“Did you hear the news?”

“Yes.”

“This good news….! It’s all thanks to Miss Woods.”

Lord George looked genuinely moved.

“I, I’m actually worried.”

“I want you to leave all those worries to adults. All Miss Woods has to think about is Miss Woods and His Highness Michael.”

Leticia shook her head.

Even the problems that immediately came to her mind felt like a huge cliff.

Besides, from what I’ve experienced so far, Lord George was a bit ignorant.

Leticia did not hide her frown.

“His Highness Michael will show that he is not a good speaker, what are you gonna do about that?”

“His Majesty already has something in mind.”

Lord George smiled.

“He said he would reveal His Highness’ weaknesses to the whole world.”
