590 – Department Without a Minister, Minister Not Working – 4

After the Crown Princess’ stone-throwing incident, the emperor’s mentality became surprisingly strong.

“Time! Time!”

“Good morning, Your Majesty. How have you been?”

“Wow!”

How could it be that even though the Crown Princess, who toddled along, fell into my arms, she would never look angry or jealous?

“As expected, the Crown Princess likes her godfather.”

She just nodded, touching her chin with her happy gaze.

No, to be precise, she covered her mouth with her hand in an effort to suppress the twitching of the corners of her mouth.

‘Damn you.’

Thinking she knew why she was like that, she bit her lip. When the Crown Princess chose me as her stone catcher, the emperor burst out laughing, saying he had caught the best thing of all.

Since the emperor was so happy, I wonder what other people must have felt. Everyone was busy applauding, saying that Her Majesty the Crown Princess was wise and that she had a brighter future than anything else. Thanks to this, I was reduced to an ‘object’ on the same level as a wooden sword and a quill.

It is truly a sad thing. Not only is it not enough to be a servant of the imperial family, but it is also an object of the princess. How far do my human rights fall? It’s so deplorable.

“It’s time! It’s time!”

With her bitter feelings, she patted the back of the Crown Princess in her arms, and the Crown Princess wriggled out and thrust her fist towards me.

I was confused for a moment. What on earth does this fist imply? Is this really a request for sparring?

“Your Highness? What is this?”

“Preface – Water!”

I was relieved to hear what followed. It wasn’t a request for sparring, it was a hiding of a gift.

‘I already know how to give gifts.’

The corners of my mouth went up without me knowing. A baby who has just started talking and walking even gets a gift from his godfather. What an amazing thing this is.

To be honest, I think he picked up flowers or grass he found while playing in the garden, but he brought them with his small hands to give as a gift to his godfather. You can receive it with a happy heart.

“I will be grateful, Your Majesty.”

“Ugh! You’re screwed!”

Once she smiled and put her hand under the Crown Princess’s fist, the Crown Princess smiled and unclenched her fist.

‘Huh?’

Eventually, an unexpected object fell onto my hand and I was a little surprised.

A small rectangular object wrapped in red wrapping paper. This is a chocolate brand that is famous in the islands.

“Drink this! Drink it!”

She blinked her eyes blankly and then turned her gaze to the Crown Princess, who could be seen shrugging her shoulders with proud expression on her face.

I was very surprised this time. It’s hard to believe that the Crown Princess is already at an age where she can eat chocolate, and that she gave up her chocolate to me when she was just introduced to sweets and was filled with greed.

Oh my god I can’t believe the baby gave up her own snack. They give you chocolate that is nothing short of sweetness.

“Thank you. I will enjoy the meal while thinking of you.”

“Wow!”

The Crown Princess nodded her head vigorously as if she was satisfied with my answer.

Don’t eat this, but use a preservation spell to store it. As a godfather, you cannot eat and destroy the first gift you received from your goddaughter.

And she knew that the Crown Princess was old enough to eat chocolate, so next time she comes, she should at least bring some chocolate or candy from a famous bakery. If she has received a gift, it is her duty to repay it.

‘Is candy still too much?’

However, I hesitated when I saw the cute teeth between the princess’s mouth smiling at her. I think my teeth would be damaged if I bit into candy with that.

Okay, let’s leave the candy for later. No matter how much you have baby teeth, it is difficult if your teeth go wrong while eating candy.

“I-I haven’t received any presents yet…”

In the meantime, the emperor’s despairing mutterings were heard, but they were ignored.

That b*stard was punished. So who wants to treat people like objects?

“Your Highness.” Would you like to take a walk with this godfather?”

“Walk! Joe!”

He carefully picked up the princess, who was flapping her arms.

My father is frustrated there. Because the godfather is coming to play with the goddaughter.

“Is there somewhere you want to go?”

“Habuji!”

Ugh.

“Habuji! Home! Friend Mana!”

It was an unexpected answer, so her eyes rolled back and forth.

If it were someone the Crown Princess would call her grandfather, there would be only one situation, and if it was her situation her her her home her her her, it would be the animal farm in the corner of the imperial palace . Her friend is probably talking about the Bremen Music School that lives there.

‘What should I do…’

I am conflicted. I’m a bit reluctant to go there too.

It’s a situation like no one else’s. Although it is now retired and has no presence, it was the hideout of a monster that commanded the entire empire and nobles until a few years ago. It’s a bit scary to go there on my own.

“Eye patch…?”

“Let’s go through everything.”

“Wow!”

As soon as she saw the Crown Princess making a tearful face, she started walking.

If I told her I was here to deliver her granddaughter, I wouldn’t say much about the situation.

The only shield has disappeared.

“Dog!”

“Uh, Your Highness!”

Arriving at the situation’s hideout, the Crown Princess left her godfather and ran to Titi’s siblings.

I felt betrayed. The reason I came to this scary place was for the sake of the Crown Princess, but she actually turned away from her godfather.

“I didn’t know her guest would suddenly come.”

While I was looking at the Crown Princess and her injeolmi her in confusion, I hurriedly bowed down at the voice of Sang-tae.

“Long live His Majesty the Situation. Head of the Crasius family—”

“Now, get up. There is no need to show too much respect to the old man who has already put down his crown.”

Hearing those words, I carefully stood up. If you lie down even though the situation has been described as such, it is just rude.

“So what brought you here?”

“As her godfather, she was going to enjoy a walk with Her Highness the Crown Princess, and she said Her Highness she wanted to come here.”

“The Crown Princess?”

The situation in which she glanced at the Crown Princess slightly raised the corners of her mouth.

It was a very, very subtle movement, but it was definitely a smile. As expected, she can’t be blunt in front of her granddaughter.

“Then don’t worry about me and stay her by her daughter her’s her side her her her. Although those guys are gentle, they are so energetic that they can knock down her young princess.”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I will be careful.”

Since I am also raising T.T., I know very well that those Injeolmi are full of power. From the perspective of the injeolmi, I also know that even nudging them to play is like getting hit by a dump truck.

Therefore, as soon as the situation permitted, she ran to the Crown Princess. The Injeolmi are still hovering around the little Crown Princess, keeping an eye on her, but there is no telling what will happen when the excitement explodes.

– Bruise? Woof woof!

– Wow!

‘What?’

And as I approached, the attention of the Injeolmi who were wandering around the Crown Princess was attracted. I probably remember the smell of TT on my body.

“Time! I’m lifted up!”

“Yes?”

In the meantime, the Crown Princess, who was looking away with her, extended her hand to me and shouted.

Please upload it. Where?

“Dog! On top of doggie!”

– Bruise?

“Not bad!”

At the clear and definite request, one of the Injeolmi blinked and lowered her body.

“Wow!”

“Wow.”

They expressed exclamations with different meanings. The Crown Princess was surprised that her Injeolmi listened to her, and I was surprised that Titi’s siblings were not of average intelligence either.

“Dog!”

Anyway, the Crown Princess climbed on her Injeolmi’s back without hesitation.

No. When children see an animal, do they have a desire to ride it? Pedi is like this and so is the Crown Princess.

– Woof!

– Wow! Wow!

Although the boarding was sudden, the Injeolmi actually welcomed the Crown Princess’s boarding to her. As if she realized that the Crown Princess liked them and wanted to play with them.

‘Who on earth are their parents?’

It’s amazing every time I see it. Pet dogs tend to grow up to be intelligent if they get plenty of love, but even taking that into account, these dogs and Titi are amazing.

Do you have extraordinary blood among your ancestors? When Titi sees her children, will children like this be born?

“Dog! Let’s go!”

– Woof!

“Well, Your Highness! It’s dangerous if you go alone!”

She started running through the palace, supporting the princess as she made a surprise departure.

If an accident occurs, I will die and the empire will die…!

***

I can’t hold the pen in my hand.

I still can’t forget the bright smile of our beloved Crown Princess or the chocolate that Charlotte gave to her minister.

‘I liked it so much…’

I feel like crying. Charlotte gave up chocolate instead of anything else? This is ridiculous. That can’t happen.

It was only a few weeks ago that I gave Charlotte her first chocolate. I still vividly see Charlotte’s curiosity about food she saw for the first time, and her eyes widening at the sweetness she tasted for the first time in her life her remain her in my heart.

From that day on, she begged for more chocolate, but the Empress strictly limited it to two per day, so Charlotte ate it all the time.

Charlotte gave the entire piece to the minister. What she didn’t give to me, she gave to the minister as a gift.

“Keuuuuu…

I feel like my heart is being torn apart. It feels like she was robbed of her one and only precious daughter.

I let my guard down. She laughed it off when she was treated as the minister’s favorite ‘object’, but since it was her favorite object, she never imagined the idea of giving something she loved.

Me too… I too can be my daughter’s thing…

‘I should have held it, not the minister.’

The event was called Doljabi by the Minister. Since the minister was the one who first came up with the event, Charlotte was left in the care of the minister. I thought that the designer and godfather deserved it.

But it was a wrong idea. I had to embrace it myself, not leave it to someone else. If that were the case, Charlotte would have caught me instead of the minister.

‘…It’s already in the past.’

I groaned for a while and then sighed.

What does it mean if I regret it now? It just burns inside me.

‘Damn it.’

With a bitter feeling, I picked up the documents I had been neglecting again. If you struggle alone, the end of work will only be delayed and the time for a cozy dinner with family will be wasted.

Such a tragedy should not happen. Even if you give up Charlotte’s chocolate, you cannot give up meal time.

‘Hmm?’

As soon as I pulled myself together and picked up the document, an unusual sentence caught my eye.

[Support and escort for the next saint-led year-end worship service. ]

The sentence states that the next saint will personally hold a year-end service in the territory of the empire.

It’s not bad news. The faithful nobles and people will be happy to see the next saint, and if they can even hear the worship service led by the next saint, they will consider it the honor of her life.

‘We can just send Cardinal Liciucco.’

And if a high-ranking member of the Holy Church conducts worship within the empire, it is incumbent upon the empire to show the same sincerity. If, as is customary, we send Cardinal Liciucco, the highest-ranking priest in the empire…

‘Wait a minute.’

The hand that was about to sign stopped.

‘Is Cardinal Lisciucco the highest ranking person?’

Confusing. The highest rank among ‘priests’ is simply Cardinal Liciuco, but if you expand the scope to include ‘all believers’, there are living minister blesseds and ministers’ wives.

Then should we send the minister and his wife his his his…? No, so the minister is not particularly faithful?

‘Damn it.’

In the end, I touched my forehead and sighed.

Also, because of the minister, existing customs were broken down.
