Chapter 110

Karl Windsor had something he did as soon as he returned to the estate.

‘I wonder how Dana has been doing all this time.’

It was secretly searching through Dana’s bedroom.

That was one of his important daily routines.

As always, he secretly entered the room with his secret key and searched through her bedroom. While thoroughly searching through the room and gathering all information about Dana’s private life.

‘What is this?’

He discovered something different from usual.

Deep inside the drawer.

He found a strange threatening letter.

‘If you don’t keep your mouth shut, I’ll kill you?’

It was a letter with pieces of newspaper text cut and pasted together to hide the handwriting.

Karl’s face became serious. Someone was threatening Dana.

Moreover, they would kill her if she didn’t keep her mouth shut. Could it be that Dana had discovered someone’s deadly secret?

‘I’ve been too busy, so she couldn’t consult with me.’

Poor Dana. How much must she be suffering inside.

Surely Dana would want to lean on him. He had been away too long due to being busy with mine work.

He couldn’t tell her he saw this first.

‘She’ll tell me soon enough.’

Besides, his next schedule would allow him to be with Dana the entire time. He should stay by her side so Dana could speak whenever she wanted.

Karl put the threatening letter back and closed the drawer. Then he stood up and took a deep breath.

‘Ah, this feels good.’

Dana’s room had a pleasant fragrance.

It was the scent that wafted from Dana’s hair.

A few days later, Lete had completely recovered.

“I apologize for causing you worry, Miss.”

As if he had never been sick, he presented documents with a healthy complexion again.

“Here are the reports from the surveillance agents assigned to Sandra Windsor and Alice Windsor.”

“It’s quite thick.”

“It records several months’ worth of their every move.”

It had been quite a while since she had people assigned to Alice and Sandra.

Alice had been under surveillance since the Moonlight Flower incident, and Sandra since right after returning from Windsor Territory.

‘It cost an enormous amount of money though.’

Looking at the document contents, it seemed worth the cost.

“Double the surveillance agents’ salary. As a sign to work even harder. And.”

Dana hesitated for a moment, then made up her mind and spoke.

“Lete. You should find a hobby.”

“Pardon?”

“You don’t have any hobbies. So I’d like you to try finding one. Exercise, playing an instrument, or… yes, even opera viewing would be good.”

“….”

“Or is there anything you’d like to study more? It would be good to explore such fields too.”

Then Lete looked at her intently and asked.

“Miss.”

“Yes?”

“Are you going somewhere by any chance?”

For a moment, Dana felt a chill down her spine. How did he know that?

She knew Lete was incredibly perceptive, but she didn’t expect it to be to this extent…

“That’s right. Viego Windsor gave me a business trip assignment.”

She didn’t want to lie to Lete. However, since it wasn’t time to tell the truth yet, Dana spoke indirectly.

“So while I’m away on the business trip, try to find a hobby. Understood, Lete?”

“….”

“You need to answer. Okay?”

When she gently coaxed him, Lete nodded.

“Yes, Miss.”

“When I return from the business trip, I’ll check if you found one well. Understood?”

“Yes, Miss.”

He added calmly.

“Please check on me.”

* * *

What she told Lete wasn’t a lie.

Viego had given her a business trip assignment for the first time, so she had to leave the estate for a while.

“They say it’s the world’s largest passenger ship. Isn’t that amazing?”

It was to attend the launch of a passenger ship built by Windsor Shipbuilding as a representative of the Windsor Family. That was her job.

“They say the ship is practically like a palace.”

Inside the carriage heading to the port.

Dana was with Karl.

Dana looked intently at Karl, who had been chattering away since earlier.

Dana wasn’t the only one boarding the passenger ship.

Karl and Sandra, even Alice and Lyos. Those annoying names were also included on the passenger list.

‘Fortunately, those people are getting off at an intermediate stop.’

Still, having to be on the same ship for several days was unpleasant. Especially because of Lyos.

Just thinking about seeing Lyos’s shameless face made her stomach twist. Especially since such a thing had happened not long ago.

‘After doing such a thing to me, he called Alice as if nothing happened?’

What a truly disgusting bastard.

Still, the only consolation was that Sandra and Karl were going together.

Even during the business trip, she could work on tearing the two apart.

She could do the work her brother assigned and ruin Karl’s marriage. And by the time she returned to the capital, the Sacred Court would be ready.

“Dana.”

Then, perhaps anxious about getting no response, Karl cautiously spoke to her.

“Do you have any worries lately?”

“Pardon?”

“You look like you’re in a bad mood.”

Dana looked at him and smiled brightly.

“I don’t have any worries like that.”

“I see…”

Karl muttered somewhat disappointedly but soon smiled brightly.

“If anything happens, tell me. Understood?”

“Yes, I’ll do that.”

Dana spoke indifferently while looking outside the window.

“We’re almost there.”

Through the window, she could see the sea sparkling under the dazzling sunlight.

And truly, just as Karl had said, a palace-like ship was anchored at the port.

The name of that passenger ship was none other than the Diana.

‘They’re openly advertising that the Windsor family is the head of the New Church Faction.’

Diana.

It was the world’s largest passenger ship, named after the Moon God.

* * *

“We’re going to see the Former Emperor!”

At the port they reached after the long carriage journey.

While waiting to board, Alice chattered excitedly.

“The Former Emperor is staying in a port city called Lipton, and fortunately the Diana’s route includes a stop at Lipton. So we’ll get off halfway there!”

“Mm-hmm. I see.”

“Isn’t it amazing! The Former Emperor is incredibly difficult to meet!”

“Right. That’s true.”

“Not just me, but Mother and Father were invited together too!”

“Yes, that’s really amazing.”

What’s this? Is she even listening?

Alice looked at her maid with dissatisfaction. Miona seemed distracted, barely paying attention.

‘What’s this? I went to the trouble of getting her out of the monastery.’

Far from being grateful, she’s acting so indifferent.

Could it be she doesn’t realize how amazing this is? Alice added more explanation to draw out a more enthusiastic reaction.

“Miona. Do you know? Sister Dana has never once met the Former Emperor personally!”

Not even once.

Lyos had never privately introduced Sister Dana to the Former Emperor, his biological father.

They had only encountered each other a few times at official events.

In fact, I heard he made efforts to prevent them from meeting.

‘But he’s personally introducing me!’

That must mean he’s thinking about this seriously.

But why is Miona’s reaction so lukewarm?

Only then did Alice realize that Miona was staring somewhere as if entranced.

In front of the port, among the bustling crowd waiting to board, a head that stood out particularly tall.

A platinum-haired man in a black coat. The handsome man with a smiling face was—

‘That’s Father.’

She’s stealing glances at my father again.

Alice observed Miona with an uncomfortable expression.

I knew it from when she asked for Father’s clothes, but…

‘She seems to have gotten stranger.’

Since returning from the monastery, Miona seemed somewhat absent-minded.

Moreover, in the way she was looking at Father now, there was a hunger that seemed almost like a starving beast.

‘If Mother catches her like this, she’ll be dead.’

Then Miona muttered.

“He really smiles so brightly.”

“Huh?”

“I mean Karl. When he talks with Sister Danae, he seems to do it even more. What is it about Sister Danae that makes Karl smile like that?”

What kind of nonsense is she talking about?

However, Alice agreed with those words.

Father seriously liked Sister. When he was with Sister, he just smiled and smiled and smiled some more.

‘Look, look. Even Mother is angry now.’

Mother, Sandra Windsor, who was standing far away with other noble ladies, was also watching Father and Sister with a frozen expression.

‘Father seems to like Sister more than me.’

Feeling spiteful, Alice turned her head sharply. Then she discovered something and narrowed her eyes.

‘Huh?’

That man pushing through the crowd right now.

The man with his hat pulled down low was…

The moment she rose on her tiptoes to see more clearly, the man disappeared into the crowd.

Alice tilted her head. It seemed like someone she knew, but had she seen wrong?

Well, that person couldn’t be here anyway.

‘Right. That person is wanted right now, isn’t he?’

Ignis de Windsor— there’s no way that person would board the Diana.
