“Mother… are you going to a party somewhere?”
At the question of Aria, she replied, laughing loudly.
“Then what else would it be?”
“You are right.”
‘Yes, yes, I am going to the place where Isis would mourn loudly and disappear, whom I had to turn the hourglass to be able to talk when I first met. Isis would be beheaded so ugly, like my old self.’ Aria, who smiled a little and affirmed this, climbed into the carriage with Carin, and a splendid, luxurious carriage, which could not be considered a commoner’s, ran quickly toward her destination.
The mansion was located near the busy street, and it was not long before it arrived in the square. There was still a little time until the beginning, but a crowd of people surged toward it, and each one started to look at the colorful carriage that did not have a stamp on.
“Oh, my supreme-ruler, it’s Miss Aria!”
“I thought I’d see her when I come here, but I can’t believe she really came!”
“How beautiful she is!”
“I can’t believe she’s a commoner now.”
“What do you mean? She’s a commoner for a while, for she’s so well with the Crown Prince! Soon she’ll be the Crown Princess!”
And as she got out of the wagon, the bystanders raised their voices and couldn’t hide their admiration as if their guesses were correct. Aria waved and greeted them with a big, happy smile, and their voices grew louder and her ears ached.
“Huh…”
So Carin laughed, covering her mouth with her fan, and was about to follow the knights who were waiting in advance.
“You’re here. I was waiting. How can you make a king of a country wait?”
A familiar voice sounded and Aria turned her head, and there was Lohan, smiling and standing there.
“… Mr. Lohan?… didn’t you go back to Croa?”
“I can’t help but come on such an important day.”
It was Lohan who answered so, but he smiled a faint smile as if he was planning something else. And…
“… Chloe” murmured Carin with a surprise, who stood beside Aria, looking after Lohan.
‘Chloe? I’ve heard of the name somewhere…’ So Aria also turned, following Carin and she hardened as if time had stopped.
He looked so beautiful enough to admire. ‘Why? Why does someone exist who resembles me so much?’
It was strange indeed. Their gender and age were different, but it was as if she was looking at herself in the mirror. Aria was staring at him with a shock, lost her words for a moment, and carefully asked Chloe’s identity.
“… who are you?”
“Well…”
Carin, who was beside her, hesitated to answer as if it hadn’t been planned in advance, and Chloe, the person directly involved, looked a little embarrassed.
Lohan asked Chloe, furrowing his forehead. “Did you come to tell her?”
“… I told you before, but I didn’t mean to talk about it on the street.”
It was a space where they had prepared to help Aria to park her wagon, and had arranged knights, but it was open without being closed, and the gaze of the spectators followed.
And even though she was a humble woman, she had a great success which would last long in history and had a scandal with the Crown Prince. Therefore, they were paying much attention to her every insignificant move.
“I never meant to rush out like this.”
“That’s because Lady Aria showed up but you were just watching from afar.”
“… Your Majesty, as I said, I was going to ask for her understanding and move to the other place.”
So when he answered with a tone that said he’d ruined, he twisted his eyebrows subtly.
“Yes, I see. You mean, I’m not needed now that you’ve found her.”
“…”
“That’s too much! I found her!”
