#What is a Divine Administrator? A Divine Administrator commands the wind, brings rain to parched skies, folds the earth to traverse it swiftly, wields sharp blades like wind to cleave the heavens, and knows how to handle that same blade with the delicacy of a flower.

I was scolded by the bachelor and kicked out for entering Cecil’s bedroom with mud feet. The maids at the Crown Princess’ palace pushed me and my albino into the same bathtub and washed them vigorously, but it felt like we were being washed rather than taking a bath. I wonder if these women are relieving their stress from not being able to breathe properly while attending to Cecile’s bath.
I got scolded by the Bachelor for entering Cecilia’s bedroom with muddy feet and was forced to wash up. The maids of the Crown Princess Palace shoved me and White One into the same bathtub and scrubbed us down hard—it felt less like bathing and more like doing laundry. I wonder if these women were taking out the stress they’d been holding in from not being able to breathe properly while attending to Cecilia’s baths on me.
After washing, drying, and grooming, Cecilia came out wearing the black one-piece dress she commonly wore as loungewear indoors, and Bachelor had prepared hot cocoa with marshmallows floating on top. He also prepared food for White One, but when I asked him to cook the raw meat, Bachelor gave White One a strange look. Our pet might like cooked meat too—why are you staring like that? It’s ridiculous.
“If it’s talks with the Sungkuk Kingdom, I’ll participate as well. Making such a fuss already—it looks rather undignified.”
“I never had any dignity to begin with.”
“It’s an order, so bring it.”
Does it work out the way you want? I gulped down my lukewarm cocoa and let out a satisfied sigh. That feeling of sugar rushing through my veins is to die for.
“I should try to follow Cecilia’s example, even if just a little.”
“Bachelor, you really are upright.”
How can you treat me the same whether I’m going by Evan’s name or by Duke Neftis’s daughter Mitchell’s name? Is that it? Do you have a perspective where only Cecilia stands above all things, and everyone else looks equal to you?
“Is it dissatisfaction?”
“Hmm…really?”
“You’re consistently disrespectful in how you treat Princess Cecilia, aren’t you?”
I’m fine with that.
“I suppose so.”
“As if the next Duke Neftis would see anything worth looking at,” the Bachelor sneered. But I could see quite a lot. Let me tell you, my vision is 2.0 in both eyes, and the Bachelor tried to hit me.
“Seian Crowell going to Seongguk? That’s out of the question.”
I was bickering with the Bachelor when Cecilia let out her characteristic eerie chuckle with a sinister smile. I thought I’d grown used to that creepiness by now, but apparently I hadn’t. Goosebumps rose on my skin and I found myself scratching my arms, and I could see the Bachelor flinch as well. It seemed Cecilia had given him goosebumps too. Whether one is a subject or loyal, people can’t go against their physiological responses.
“As expected of Cecilia from the Abyss Visa. Does she have some kind of plan?”
“…?”
“….”
Did I say something wrong? Two people were looking at me very bewildered, so I became bewildered too, and then the Bachelor stepped in and asked what that abyss thing was supposed to be.
“It refers to Cecilia’s dark and venomous sneer, as if she were staring into an abyss. In other words, it’s her nickname.”
Don’t do it.
Why?
“It will tarnish Your Majesty’s reputation. Don’t do it.”
The Bachelor looks resolute. But what about Cecilia? If only Cecilia would say it was fine, then I could have teased Cecilia as Abyss Visso to my heart’s content.
“I wish you wouldn’t do that.”
Cecilia, who had been deliberating whether to allow it or not, came to a decision. It was a shame.
“Why? Isn’t Sim Yeon-bi cool?”
Don’t do it.
“I told you not to do it.”
Ugh, how boring. Anyway, do you have a plan regarding the marriage alliance with Sung King? When Cecilia asked the Female Informant this, she tilted her head greatly and said, “Why do I need to say more when she’s refusing to give me mine?”
As expected, Cecilia doesn’t understand the human heart. If things go wrong, I’ll have no choice but to grab Seian and run off during the talks.

There were a total of eight seats in the conference room to discuss the marriage alliance. The three gathered there appear to be Dongseoksae, Sera, and Seian, and the two seats here appear to be Seo and I. Are there three people attending as representatives of the Holy Kingdom’s envoys?
The conference hall convened for marriage alliance negotiations held eight seats in total. The three clustered over there appeared to belong to Sunbird, Sera, and Seian Crowell, while these two seats were mine and Cecilia’s, and it seemed Seongguk was sending three representatives as their delegation.
When I appeared alongside Cecilia, our garments coordinated in matching embellishments, the Seongguk delegation released a small gasp of astonishment. It was hardly surprising—Cecilia alone would overwhelm any conference chamber with her dark aura and sinister presence, but with me standing beside her, we made quite the breathtaking pair.
Eyes as devastatingly lifeless as the abyss itself, overflowing with otherworldly beauty—that was Cecilia—and there I stood beside her, a woman whose beauty could scarcely be called anything less than the most exquisite in all the world. One could forgive them for losing their sight, alternating between light and darkness. Especially today, my face would shine without mercy. I’d slept soundly the night before.
“Ha ha! So you must be Crown Princess Cecilia, whose approval ratings plummeted in one fell swoop!”
What kind of death wish does this person have, speaking to Cecilia like that on first meeting? Before we’d even taken our seats, the provocation had begun. I shot her a look suggesting I’d like to tear her throat out, but Cecilia calmed me with a gesture and opened her mouth coldly.
“I had no idea the Sung King herself would grace us with her presence.”
So that woman is the top dog of Seongguk? She seemed more suited to piracy than priesthood.
The woman who laughed at Cecilia’s words suddenly stood and approached us, extending her hand for a handshake. Cecilia accepted without hesitation, shaking her hand smoothly. The Sung King then turned her attention to me as her target, hurling an insult before extending her hand.
