Chapter: 677

“Astelle.”

Then she heard a familiar voice behind her.

Kaizen, who was surrounded by nobles, approached this way.

Kaizen wears the emperor’s robe which is usually worn at court events.

Usually, that outfit looked good on Kaizen as if it were tailored to him, but it was even more wonderful in broad daylight.

It shows the dignity of the owner of the empire.

He approached Astelle at a quick pace.

“I greet you, Your Majesty the Emperor.”

Kaizen, who came closer, frowned.

What’s wrong? He suddenly raised his hand. Without hesitation, his hand lightly touched Astelle’s cheek.

Astelle was startled.

“Are you hot? The sun is blazing.”

“Oh…… No, Your Majesty.”

In such a public place, he suddenly touched her face.

The nobles around them all pretended to be absorbed in the conversation and glanced over here.

“Your Majesty, I am fine.”

“It’s okay, don’t overdo it.”

It’s a little hot because of the sun, but it’s not that hot.

Kaizen pointed to the small pavilion on the other side of the garden.

“You better go over there and get some rest.”

She couldn’t even say no when the emperor himself recommended it.

Actually, she didn’t have time to say so.

Because Kaizen was already walking over there holding Astelle’s hand.

The pavilion here is also used as a tearoom or break room.

All the windows are open and a cool breeze is blowing in.
