Chapter: 632
The dried grass was cut into small pieces and tied together.
‘Why is this in here?’
Did Theor leave it behind while playing with it in the garden?
Since it’s a toy box, it looks like he just left it here while playing.
He thought so and picked it up to throw it away, but for a moment an unfamiliar scent struck his nose.
‘Well?’
He put a bunch of grass to his nose and smelled its scent.
A unique scent was faintly smelled in the bitter smell of grass.
Kaizen instantly realized the identity of the grass.
It was an herb.
An herb commonly used by young ladies.
“Your Majesty? What’s going on?”
The servant, who returned with a small picture frame, asked with a puzzled face.
Kaizen stood up without answering.
“I will go to the empress’ palace right now.”
Kaizen headed back to the empress’ palace to meet Astelle.

“Your Majesty, are you going to sleep here tonight?”
Theor asked, clinging to Kaizen’s arm. Kaizen turned to Astelle and replied, “……yes.”
“That’s great,” Theor rejoiced.
The quick-witted Astelle said quickly, “Theor, go to your room first. I’ll follow you in a little while.”
“Yes……”
Theor frowned and grabbed Kaizen’s hand.
“Your Majesty has to come, too.”
“Yes, of course.”
