“Wow, the Founding Medal?”

"Yups! The Imperial Palace sent someone to the clothing store!”

Each year, on the day of its founding, the Emperor confers a medal.

It's up to the Emperor to who the medal will be given.

Some of the successive Emperors gave medals to their son, the Prince.

The contents of the medal were also varied.

In some cases, given to the people, and in some cases, one of the royal relatives was greatly awarded.

"I made ready-to-wear clothes to help improve the health of the Imperial People..."

He still couldn't believe it, he muttered and pinching my cheek.

"Dad is the best!"

I kissed my dad's cheek and made him happier.

In fact, I already knew.

The fact that the recipient of this year's Founding Medal is my father.

It was because Emperor Jovanes had already conveyed his intentions to my grandfather three months ago, and Clerivan had told me that.

I didn't write to Perez that I'll see him sooner or later.

Moreover, this year's banquet was expected to be even more special.

Clerivan brought news that the extended family, who presided over each area, had arrived in the capital to attend the banquet.

South Sussew, East Luman, West Huxley, and North Ivan.

Of all the Imperial Banquets that have been held in the past few decades, was there any banquet as magnificent as this time and was attended by many valued guests?

"Because they told me to attend the Banquet in three days. What should I prepare?"

My father is still muttering and choosing my clothes first.1

It's not me, but my father who wins the award.

“I'm going to wear the clothes at the Gallahan clothing store!”

My father was surprised at what I cried out, and his eyes widened.

"But, Tia. The clothes in the clothing store..."

My father was silent for a while.

"It's a little bit to wear to the Imperial Palace Banquet..... How about wearing the clothes that Aunt Shananet gave us as a gift this time?"

It seemed that he was worried that I would be teased after going to the imperial palace in ready-to-wear clothes.

In a way, it was a natural concern. Ready-made clothes were common people's clothes.

I could tell from seeing my father receive a medal for making ready-made clothes for them, who were always naked and cold.

But he couldn't resist my stubbornness.

"I'm going to wear the clothes that my dad made!"

"Tia …."

My father hugged me tightly.

It seemed that he was moved by my extreme innocent.

"Thank you, Tia."

My father patted my back at the end of his crying voice.

"Who's daughter will be so pretty?"

I also hugged my father tightly.

I feel good, so I laugh.

The Imperial Palace Banquet.

It's a great opportunity to promote children's clothing.3

"Your Majesty is waiting."

The Emperor's chief butler said quietly to Perez when he approached.

It's an early time when the sun has barely reached.

Jovanes called Perez about once a month to eat breakfast with him.

Others looked at it and seemed to say,' Your Majesty cares very much for the Second Prince', but well.

Perez thought this was rather close to surveillance.

He checked to see if the Second Prince who was reluctant to gather was sternly minded.

Upon entering, the Emperor was already eating.

Without common greeting, Jovanes didn't stop eating, confirming that Perez had come with a side glance.

Perez, too, took a seat and sat down one place away.

Before long, the food was prepared with the same excellent food that the Emperor eats.

Looking back at it, Perez recalled the day he first entered the Poirak Palace.

When he was getting used to moldy food, that the day he first learned what a 'prince-like-meal' was.

That day when the sun went down, the candles were lit, and the wall torch was lit all night, and he realized how warm the night was.

On the day when anger was hotter than the burning fire.

The only thing that made Perez laugh in the memory of that day was Florentia.

“I heard that the duration of your Aura has increased noticeably.”

The emperor said to Perez, who was thinking about Florentia.

“……Yes."

"Right."

It was ridiculously short to answer to the emperor, but Jovanes didn't mind.

It was because his interest had focused on Perez's tremendous sword skills.

When he first read the report brought by the swordsman teacher to the chief of staff, Jovanes doubted his eyes.

At the age of thirteen, Perez already capable of maintaining Aura for an hour!

Until recently, there had not been such an achievement in the history of the Empire.

At the age of thirteen, it was the age where talent is assessed by following physical and basic training.

A similar example was Astana, the First Prince.

Astana, who has been holding swords from a much younger age than Perez, recently finished basic training at the age of fifteen and had just started a theory class for Aura.

Very fast progress.

Looking at Astana, the nobles of the empire were saying, 'The future of the Imperial Family is bright'.

Until now, Perez's achievements were known only as Jovanes and his swordsmanship teacher.

No, the swordsmanship teacher from the beginning was recommended by Lombardy, so Lulak also receiving the reports.

But except for them, Perez was still a forgotten Prince.

It was completely different from Astana, which was receiving the attention of the nobles every step of the way.

 

 

Only they knew the existence of Perez.

"Perez."

Perez put down the spoon at Jovanes's call.

“Attend this Imperial Banquet.”

Perez's red eyes looked at the Emperor with doubts.

Jovanes looked at those eyes and wondered if Perez's mother, whose face no longer remembered, had those red eyes.4

“……I don't think it's a good idea."

What came out after a moment of silence was rejection.

Jovanes was confused, he not even thinking that Perez would reject the Emperor ordered.

Perez had lived in a hidden place so far, Jovenes thought he would be happy to finally jump on the chance to come out to the sun.

although there usually isn't much expression on Perez's face.

There was a sign of annoyance now.

"You are someone who can be recognized as the Second Prince."

Jovanes said as the last warning.

"Do I need approval?"

"What?"

Even when Jovenes asked again, Perez stubbornly shut his mouth without explaining any further.

The Emperor looked at it and muttered to himself.

"You boy, you resemble me."

In a moment, Perez's eyes were overwhelmed by unpleasant displeasure, but Jovanes, who was absorbed in his own thoughts, continued to talk without seeing it.

"Yeah. You are my blood without the recognition of the nobles. You are the Second Prince of the Lambrew Empire."

The 'recognition' Perez spoke of was not just the recognition of the nobles, as Jovannes understood it.

It meant that no need Emperor's recognition too.

In fact, it's been less than three years since the Emperor began to care if Perez was alive or dead.

Before that, Perez was thrown to the Empress, hoping to die.

Maybe the Emperor wished that his overnight mistakes would disappear like that.

However, Jovanes seems to have taken it in a very different way.

"That's…”

Perez tried to correct the misunderstanding but was interrupted by the Emperor's words.

“But the nobles need to know that Astana is not the only prince who is recognized by the Emperor.”

Astana.

Perez' eyes changed at the name of the 1st Prince.

Jovanes, who noticed it, laughed wildly.

"Yes. You seem to agree with that."

In fact, it's better to stay hidden for a few more years if it's entirely in Perez's interests.

Astana's maternal mother, Angena's enormous power, Perez couldn't allow it.

Although Perez had Lulak Lombardy as his guardian, it was only the deal between the Emperor and Lulak.

So, it's good to keep quiet as is and develop more strength on your own.

But that's only the way for Perez.

That wasn't the way for Jovannes.

"Imperial Banquet has a special meaning in many ways since ancient times."

Not long ago, Angenas offered 10 gold bars.

It was an action taken by Angenas to check Perez' existence and make him visible to Jovanes.

Angenas would have to pay attention if Perez was at Imperial Banquet this time.

More than just 10 gold bars.

"It's, even more, special this year. Gallahan Lombardy is going to be admitted to receive the medal, so the nobles who attend the banquet will be the same as usual...."

“I will attend.”13

Perez said at that moment.

Until a while ago, it was a bright face, but now it shines from the eyes.

'You seem to be greedy.'

Jovanes nodded and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

It was because he didn't even think that Perez would change his attitude like a thunderbolt just by hearing the name 'Gallahan Lombardy'.

* * *

The day of the Imperial Founding Banquet. I got ready with Louryl's help.

“Yes, this is it.”

I laughed with satisfaction when I moved my body in front of the mirror.

"Wow, Miss is so cute!"

"Right?"

Usually, kids my age hate when adults say 'cute'.

But no matter what they think, if I look cute to an adult, it doesn't matter.

It's adults who buy children's clothes.

To promote the children's clothing launched this time, the dress I chose was a gentle brown dress.

It's a style that adults love to wear to their children, which makes my green eyes stand out and look neat.

But that wasn't all.

An off-white silk blouse was worn inside the monochromatic dress, and green silk embroidered with colorful flowers in gold was stitched along the hem of the brown dress.

A fine emerald was attached to the brown fabric, which could seem flat, a Rosario made of silver, whose thicker than the finger joints, was used to tie the waist once to make the dress more voluminous.

In addition, the sleeves are decorated with round white lace, which makes it a gorgeous and beautiful dress that cannot be thought of as a ready-made dress.

Although the beginning was similar to others, it was the charm of ready-to-wear that could change into a unique look by showing the desired accessories and each fashion sense.

Of course, the point here is that everyone knows what a monotonous ready-made suit looks like.

People need to know the prototype so that people can know how expensive jewelry I used and how I changed it to a pretty design with an aesthetic sense.

It was a good material to stimulate the competitive spirit of the nobles who like to show off anything, have a lot of money, time, and a little work to do.
