【Chapter 43】
Blink blink—
I was dumbfounded and lost my composure due to the surreal figures before me.
Right now in front of me were,
Queen Grace of the Frozen Kingdom.
Marquis Aria, who is responsible for the southern part of the Frozen Kingdom.
Princess Maria, who is rumored to be intelligent in the eastern part of the Frozen Kingdom.
And Count Del, who is rumored to be the most handsome in the western part of the Frozen Kingdom.
Wait a minute.
There are several people here, so how should I greet them?
Normally I would just introduce myself and be done with it, but right now there was none other than the Queen standing before me.
And although I’m 5 years old, I’m a former professional spy who has experienced social life.
‘Aisha, greet them!’
Having quickly regained my composure, I first stood before Queen Grace.
“The sun of the world shines upon the Frozen Kingdom, hello. Your Majesty Queen Grace.”
And I moved my fern-like little fingers to try to lift the hem of my dress.
“…?”
Something felt empty.
When I hurriedly looked down, there was no dress hem that should have been gorgeously puffed up with lace and ruffles.
Instead.
‘Damn it! I’m wearing pajamas!’
My eyes trembled with shock.
What kind of outfit is this to wear in front of Her Majesty the Queen!
“Lord Nox! My clothes!”
“Ah, I apologize. We brought you directly from the inn to the kingdom and happened to encounter Her Majesty the Queen… Since Her Majesty told us not to wake you, you ended up entering the kingdom in your pajamas.”
“What?!”
My mouth opened wide in a triangle shape in despair.
I am standing. In front of Her Majesty the Queen. In my pajamas.
‘Pajamas are comfortable pants, my clothes are similar pajamas to what Lucas wears!’
Glancing around, I saw four people with tremendous power in the Frozen Kingdom looking at me with eyes full of curiosity.
Get it together, myself.
If I don’t have a dress, if I’m wearing pants…
I just need to greet them like a gentleman!
“I am Princess Aisha Croste. I apologize for my inadequate attire when meeting Your Majesty.”
Ta-da—
As I tilted one leg and placed one arm on my chest while bowing my upper body.
Clap clap clap.
The people watching applauded as if they found it fascinating.
“Is that a hamster?”
“Where did you learn to greet like that? What a fascinating and cute child.”
“Can I touch you?”
At the last question, I quickly spread my hamster-like hands and shook my head vigorously.
“No.”
This is the first time in my life I’ve received applause for greeting someone.
This is strange. These people are strange.
“Welcome to the Queen’s Palace, Miss Aisha.”
Queen Grace, who had been watching my greeting for quite a while, nodded her head and accepted my greeting.
Still, what was interesting was that although it was strange, it didn’t seem bad.
“Yes!”
I looked at Her Majesty with a slightly shy expression.
‘I had only seen her through novel descriptions, but seeing her in person, she really is unrealistically beautiful.’
Grace was the Queen who received the greatest support from the common people among all the Queens in the history of the Frozen Kingdom.
Developed monster lure at age 18.
At 22, she developed an automatic plow using magic for the common people as a hobby.
She doesn’t indulge in luxury, and having great interest in monsters, she continuously contacts the North to introduce magic-related knowledge and items.
Oh, and a revolutionary fact.
The portal of the Frozen Kingdom was also created by this person!
‘A-ma-zing.’
I looked at Grace with eyes of respect.
But since Grace was also human, she had flaws about the size of a booger.
No, considering her status as a noble, it was a bit bigger than a booger.
‘She was so interested in magic studies and monsters that she didn’t care about high society at all.’
Being awkward at chatting with ordinary noble ladies, she was described as always standing like a statue at regularly held royal events.
In the original work, it wasn’t written that she had joined the Monster Appreciation Society.
But this was probably the only gathering Grace ever attended.
“By the way, you said you brought something else interesting?”
Her light green eyes that held early summer turned toward Nox.
At Grace’s question, Nox got to the main point in earnest.
“Miss Aisha. If it’s alright with you, please bring out the baby.”
“Yes!”
This place was a huge tea room with the terrace of the Queen’s Palace spread out.
“Baby. Just for a moment, shall we greet our society members?”
I held the baby under its front legs and presented it to the society members.
As the warm spring breeze of the capital blew into the terrace, the baby that had been rubbing its head opened its eyes with a meow.
“Really, those eyes…”
“They’re purple.”
The mouths of the people who saw the baby slowly opened.
“After reading Lord Nox’s letter, I honestly thought you were exaggerating…”
“Those eyes, what exactly… is it some kind of horned horse?”
“Can I touch it?”
Princess Maria, who seemed to want to touch anything cute, actually tried to reach out this time.
Smack—
“Kyaak!”
The baby, wrinkling its nose bridge, hissed and turned its head into my arms.
“It doesn’t like anyone except me.”
At my words, Grace expressed doubt.
“With that kind of personality, it must have been hard to hide from people. How did you bring it here?”
“As long as people don’t approach first, it listens to me well. It’s very well-behaved.”
“Well-behaved?”
“Yes! It’s completely like a dog-like cat!”
Is this, is this what it feels like to be a parent bragging about their child?
I snorted with inexplicable good mood.
“…”
But it was unexpected.
Grace’s expression, which seemed like she would applaud, darkened slightly.
“Ah, let’s sit down first.”
After staring at the baby for quite a while, she tried to hide her flustered expression and offered seats.
‘What? Given Her Majesty’s personality that I just observed, I thought she would react positively.’
It was a bit puzzling, but since I hadn’t figured out Grace yet, it could be like that.
As everyone sat down at her suggestion, I also tried to sit in a chair.
“Princess Aisha.”
Calm footsteps inserted themselves between me and the chair.
It was Grace.
“Do you like dessert?”
“Yes!”
At my spirited answer, Grace smiled warmly this time.
“Nox mentioned it before. That Miss Aisha likes eating sandwiches in the garden.”
“That’s right!”
“The royal chef is a crepe master, so how about eating some while enjoying the sunlight in that garden over there?”
Huh?
“…?”
This was a dismissal.
Moreover, she was unusually kneeling down to my eye level and smiling kindly, which didn’t befit her status as Queen.
Everyone, including Nox, exchanged glances at this unexpected situation, but this was the Queen’s command.
No one dared to question her words.
“…Yes!”
After being frozen for a moment, I regained my bright smile and nodded.
* * *
At Grace’s suggestion, the kitten drank water with a drop of eye color transformation potion.
“Meow-“
Perhaps because it was thirsty, as the cat lapped at the water, dark brown spread around its sharp irises.
Click.
As Aisha disappeared with the cat along with Head Maid Mai and the servants-
“Is there some reason for this?”
Nox, who had been quietly keeping his mouth shut, asked.
Queen Grace had too many things to observe when conversing due to her public status.
But now that outsiders had left, she was just a member of the Monster Appreciation Society.
The Monster Appreciation Society aimed for relationships that were as horizontal as possible since it gathered people with great interest in monsters.
“How long has Miss Aisha been attached to that cat?”
“Well. She got permission from the physician, told me that day, and came straight to the kingdom, so it’s been a little over two weeks and two or three nights.”
“Two weeks and two or three nights.”
Just then, a child’s laughter could be heard from outside.
People automatically looked in that direction at the joyful voice that sounded like singing.
Beyond the terrace.
In the garden Grace had mentioned, they could see the cat running toward Aisha who was sitting on a bench.
“Hehe. Stop it, baby!”
Rolling around in the field, they looked like a scene from a happy painting.
However.
“Then separate that cat from the Princess within two weeks.”
A voice as cold as frost severed their relationship.
“…Pardon?”
“Right now it looks like a weak little kitten, but if it ever catches the scent of human blood.”
Grace paused for a moment.
She chose words to explain that thing, and having chosen, she spoke.
“It will become a monster.”
