Does not exist.

Nowhere.

“Lou… Lou…!”

no matter how much i cry, i don’t answer

Lou, who always answered and ran when he called, was gone.

“Ueeen…

Louder, louder even if your throat hurts.

He cried louder so that it could be heard outside the large door.

It still doesn’t come back, but it still cries.

Even when the nasty-sounding nanny peered in with a lined face and said, “Stop it, stop crying,” and pulled it from the door and led it inside, it came back and continued to stare at the door.

When Lilitha cries, Lou returns.

Because it was always like that.

I kept crying even though my throat hurt and I couldn’t make a sound, so I think I finally heard Lilitha’s cry.

The door opened and I saw Lou.

A large man was holding it.

I look at Lou still crying. I could see Lou’s face through the blurred tears and smelled the familiar scent of Lou. It smelled like strange grass, but it was definitely Lou’s.

And for some reason, a white dress was wrapped around Lou’s body.

Every night he thought that the princess he had been talking about had appeared.

Lu has become a princess!

Maybe that’s why he never came back.

The princess is a person who goes to live in a big castle.

If the horse bigger than a goat takes it away, it will never come back.

What was left of the mansion was the two mean sisters, seven dwarfs, a pumpkin and a mouse, and… er, what. That’s right, just a broken magic mirror.

There is always something left in the mansion of the princess Lou tells about.

I don’t know if Lilitha will be left behind either. No, it will definitely be left behind. After the princess leaves the castle, Lilitha will remain in this mansion and live forever as a broken magic mirror.

Lou always calls her princess, but Lilitha was not a princess.

A broken magic mirror lying still.

As it was before Lou came, when Lou is gone, it becomes a broken mirror again.

Before, she didn’t know what Lilitha was, but now she knew she was a broken mirror.

[Be back by 12:00, or the magic will break.]

Lou’s voice echoed around in my head.

If Lou disappears from here, Lilitha becomes a broken mirror again.

Neither the magician nor the prince came here, so Lilitha could never become a princess.

When did Lou meet the wizard? No, Lou is a wizard. But a wizard is not a princess.

Anyway, now Lu is gone to the big castle and will never come back.

Because she is a princess wearing a white dress.

The princess always leaves something behind in the mansion and never returns. You’ll be happy alone in the castle.

‘no. no. I can’t go.’

As I held Lou tightly and cried, for some reason, Lou, who had become a princess, also cried. Seeing Lou sobbing, I thought it was pitiful.

Maybe Lou didn’t want to be a princess.

‘Then I have to protect it.’

Lilitha needs to become a prince and protect Lu.

yes, let’s do that

Lilitha will be a prince, not a princess. So I’ll protect Lou.

I will definitely become a prince, Lou.

So I’ll be sure to protect you. Until then, don’t be a princess. Don’t leave Rilisha here.

After Rudy returned from the New Year’s banquet, Princess Lilitha became a more combative insect warrior.

He wanders around the mansion all day looking for bugs.

Why, Rudy has no idea.

However, the princess was really enthusiastic, as if her small body meant something.

In the end, I gave up on stopping the princess and decided to write the [Detox] spell on her body.

In fact, if Ma Ink wasn’t dangerous, Princess Lilitha would be the first to decipher it. I pick up whatever I can get my hands on, and I step on it regardless of whether it’s goat dung or chicken dung.

‘The problem is where to write it down, but…’

You cannot engrave it on the soles of your feet, just like Bhimama.

If you are crawling on the floor all day like Princess Ririsha, the place that others see the most is your feet.

Of course, in normal circumstances, he would wear socks, but in this shabby mansion, even those were very valuable items.

Slave Marie is working hard on one hand, but this and that are very lacking. When making something urgent, the princess’s socks were always pushed back.

Because of this, the princess was almost always barefoot or wearing something like a loose bootie that her nanny had made in the past.

The horse is a baltosi, it’s just a long piece of lightly stitched fabric. After crawling 1 meter, it came off as it was.

On his knees, he wears leather protectors that Rudy devised, but after wandering around for a while, it is hard to see if he dropped them somewhere.

Anyway, the soles are difficult.

‘hmm···. What should I do?’

The easiest place is to write it on the inside of the thigh like he did, but I was a little reluctant since I was a girl no matter how young I was.

‘No, there’s no need to think strangely at all.’

After all, he is also the body of a five-year-old child, and there is no problem at all physically or mentally.

Besides, even now it was Rudy who bathed the princess. There is no corner to think of as strange. There is nothing strange about it, but…

‘ha.’

Rudy let out a long sigh.

Cook Cook.

Princess Lilitha pricked Rudy’s body with her finger. The bandage on the part that hasn’t been loosened yet looks strange.

Rudy wrapped his hands around the princess’s little hand to stop the stabbing.

“Princess, it hurts when I touch it.”

“…de…doesu…”

I want to say something, but it doesn’t seem to work.

“Yes it is. Let’s do it.”

While arguing, I put my hand inside the tub to check the temperature of the water.

A small distance from the fireplace is a small bowl, slightly larger than a basin.

Originally, it was used for other purposes, but now it was used as a bathtub for the princess to bathe.

It’s a bit on the low side, so it’s easy for Rudy to put the princess in the barrel alone.

A round partition was placed around the place where the barrel was placed to prevent drafts. It is a partition that originally surrounded the bed of the princess.

The crib that was originally sleeping was moved upstairs the day the mattress came in.

The princess is sleeping with Rudy on a large mattress next to the partition.

Even if she had no eyes to see, I wasn’t sure if it would be okay for a princess to sleep with a slave. Well, the princess had no choice but to fall asleep until she fell asleep.

After adding a little more warm water with the water magic tool, adjust the temperature again.

It seems appropriate.

Rudy took off all of Princess Lilitha’s clothes and lifted her up using her whole body.

When I put my hand on the princess’s armpit and applied force, the wound hurt. There may be a place where the wound that has been attached for a few days has opened.

After entering the bathtub, the princess instantly felt better.

At first, the princess thought she would die if she went into the water, but now she loves bathing enough to crawl into it herself.

Bak bak bak bak, playing with water by hitting it with the palm of your hand.

The water seeped through the bandage wrapped around his forearm.

‘Should I loosen all the bandages now?’

There were some small cuts and some quite deep, but there were no inflamed or troubled areas.

At first, I thought it was because of the herbs the doctor gave me, but it seems to be the effect of the [Detoxification] spell.

[Detox] doesn’t have the power to heal the wound itself, but it seems to get rid of germs.

It would be unmistakable to see Buradov startled.

Unexpectedly, I found something good.

As expected, even if it’s a little reluctant, it’s better to write down the [Detox] spell on Princess Lilisha’s body.

For Bhimama, I already wrote [Nervous Sedative] when I wrote it. Ah, maybe thanks to that, the addictiveness of the medicine I take at night will be a little less.

‘I hope so.’

While lost in thought, the princess was excited.

Inside the partition, the water splashed by the princess was all over the place. The laundry that had been laid out around the tub was all soaked, and the princess’s hair was wet and sinking.

“Really… what about all this?”

Rudy looked at the watery bottom and let out a long sigh.

Rudy was also soaking wet.

It’s a bit damp, but you won’t catch a cold anyway.

Inside the partition lies a horse necklace bought from a slave trader.

Rudy was using some of the hemp necklaces for [heating].

It is a secret to the nanny.

She just thought that the original [heating] magic tool had become warmer thanks to Rudy’s magic.

That’s true, but it’s a building with severe drafts, so it’s cold with a heater. so···.

slaps slaps.

The princess laughed and sprayed water on Rudy’s face.

“…”

Dealing with children is difficult.

It’s harder for a man to deal with a girl.

Rudy sighed for an unknown number of times and reached out his hand.

“I have to leave now. If you do it wrong, your fingers will wrinkle and turn into an old woman.”

For well over ten minutes after that, Rudy wrestled with Princess Lilitha, who was dodging herself like a loach.

In the past, they used to scream that they would not go in, but now they say they will not come out.

‘Parenting is really difficult.’

Late that night, on the first floor of the mansion where everyone was sleeping, Rudy put all of Princess Lilitha’s clothes on and carved a magic spell deep inside her thigh.

I didn’t do anything wrong, but I couldn’t sleep because of the strange feeling of guilt.

But the next day, he was relieved to know that his choice was not wrong.

The princess doesn’t know why, but it seems that the target of the fight has been raised from bugs to rats.

While Rudy was watching the goats, chickens, and rabbits for a moment, the princess ran at the mouse standing at a distance. It seems that the mouse was aiming to steal and eat the grains it gave to the chicken.

I thought my heart stopped.

Besides, it’s very fast. I can’t tell if this is a princess or a human spider.

Maybe we should develop something that can not only be deciphered, but later be bound by spells.

I think it will be a big problem if I just leave it alone.

Contrary to the princess being active like a wild monkey, Nadia Bhimama is sleeping well during the day now because of her deteriorating condition.

It is said that the first day he returned from the New Year’s banquet was quite severe.

When Rudy returned from treating his wounds, the inside of the mansion was a mess.

The princess cries for a hoarse voice, Bhimama screams and says she fell asleep while drunk, and things are lying here and there…

Later, when Nadia Mama woke up, she was shocked.

Her mind seems to have stopped right before the gladiator fight at the New Year’s banquet. It was a little difficult because he suddenly rushed at him and wailed and begged the emperor who was not here.

Even so, when the emperor is nowhere to be seen and Rudy calls himself Enrico, Bhimama seems relieved.

To prevent Nanny from using the medicine, Rudy has kept the [Nervous Sedative] spell activated at all times since that day.

As days passed since the New Year’s banquet gladiator fight and the wounds were drying up, Buradov informed me that the training of battle slaves would begin.

I already let out a sigh at the thought of leaving the princess behind.

Still, it’s a bit fortunate to hear that training starts early in the morning before dawn. At least I don’t think I’ll have to see her crying when I go. It’s a problem after coming back.

On the first day of combat training, Rudy was greeted by a boy he had never seen before.

I must have been about fourteen or five years old.

Quite young.

She had her hair neatly tied back and was dressed in plain clothes.

Maybe it’s not a formal servant, but an apprentice.

“Starting today, Rudi is called Raebin, who will serve from the concubine to the training ground. Please let me know if you need anything.”

“…”

Something is strange.

I don’t know why you treat slaves with respect.

When Rudy pauses, stands still, and looks up at the boy named Levin, he smiles.

cute.

He’s a man, but he’s cute.

You look prettier than most women.

What kind of place is the Imperial Palace, where only handsome boys and girls gather?

“Rudy-sama is cute!”

no, you’re cute

“Just like a girl.”

No, I think that’s what you were talking about…

Levin opened his eyes and suddenly went to the carriage and rummaged in the back of the seat. And came with a small pouch.

“Would you like to have this?”

It contained several pieces of dried fruit.

“thank you.”

When I thought of Princess Lilitha, I accepted it and slightly raised my gaze, Levin was smiling bright enough to shine on his face.

“Ever since I entered the imperial palace, I kept making mistakes, being bullied by my colleagues, and getting older without being able to take on a job, so it was really painful. All my other co-workers are working as assistants, but I have not been in charge of anything so far. That’s why it’s my first time serving Rudy-nim. I will work really hard.”

“…”

It seems that he was pushed to himself as a slave because he was on the verge of being cut off.

a little pitiful

It seemed that he was very happy with something, but it was already decided that he would be kicked out at the point of serving a battle slave or something.

It may be that only the person himself is unaware of it, and it may have already been abandoned.

Rudy held out a piece of fruit he had received from Levin.

“Wow, are you giving it to me? thank you.”

I am very happy when I take back a piece of what he gave me.

Maybe he’s a bit of a hater.

“…”

When I climbed into the carriage with the boy attendant a little further away, the coachman lifted the reins.

The carriage with a small horse lamp attached starts to move slowly, and the boy attendant, who is still in a good mood, talks about this and that indiscriminately.

Rudy thought about the emperor while listening to the boy in a daze.

What is the emperor thinking?

Why did he ask himself to become a slave to the golden necklace?

There are too many unknowns.
