Chapter: 212

‘It’s probably a trap.’

It was very crude for a trap.

‘What would you get if you framed a young child into a trap?’

There was one thing to be gained.

If you framed Theor, it was Astelle who got into trouble.

She could be punished for ruining the collections of the previous emperor.

Even if she is not punished, she will have to pay at least the price of the pottery.

She felt that there was only one person who could come up with such a thing.

‘It must have been the Marchioness.’

Astelle asked Theor, “Theor, can you tell me what really happened?”

“I……”

Theor bit his lip involuntarily.

‘His Majesty the Emperor told me to keep it a secret……’

Should I keep it a secret where we met?

It was difficult to distinguish from where it was a secret and from where it was not.

‘He told me to keep only what he said, but……’

If he said he had met the emperor, Astelle would ask what he was talking about.

As Theor was so arguing inside, Astelle found yellow powder on Theor’s wrist and Blynn’s hair.

Upon closer inspection, it was clearly pollen.

It is pollen with a very familiar scent.

Tokar flower.

It must have been the pollen of the Tokar flower.

A smile appeared on Astelle’s lips when she saw it.

“You went to Tokar flowerbed, right?”

“Oh, how did you know?”
