Chapter 93
So that she may slowly grow into the perfect Emperor, hiding her claws in her lavish clothes and decorations.
Of course I was just thinking that it might be that way.
The Princess shrugged her shoulders slightly.
No matter how much she was a beloved daughter, she could not fully understand her father’s true intentions.
In any case, the long hours he carried her with him were not in vain.
Because she led her attendants and knights nicely.
So, when almost all preparations were completed, the Emperor’s carriage finally arrived at the hunting grounds.
“Your Majesty.”
Upon hearing the news of his arrival, Gabriella immediately ran and bowed her back without holding her breath.
“I’m sorry I’m late, my Gabi.”
The Emperor used to call his daughter ‘my Gabi’.
With love.
“No, I checked everything you instructed. The assignment of manpower to the divided areas has also been completed. I have checked.”
Beyond that, Gabriella gave a brief overview of what the Emperor needed to know.
“My daughter is smart and meticulous. Thank you.”
“No, I’m glad I got the chance.”
Since she turned 16 she hasn’t been able to do much, so she’s been a little depressed.
“It’s a pleasure to see the successor looking for work. But my daughter still needs protection and study.”
Protection and study.
There were two rules that her Emperor always emphasized to her.
Gabriella Farrell Mechidia was the Emperor’s only child.
She was the youngest of pure blood.
There were many people in this world who would put a blade on her neck with that fact alone.
So she had to learn.
What would put her most at risk, and what could save her.
Of course, the Emperor’s being a ‘daughter fool’ behavior played a big role.
Even if for some reason he puts excessive escort on her, he’ll be able to get around in moderation by saying, ‘Because I’m so worried about my cute daughter.’
“But . . . I am sixteen now.”
Gabriella raised her heartfelt voice cautiously.
Just like ordinary sixteen-year-olds do to their parents.
“Of course I know. This is the age at which the class of becoming an adult begins.”
The Emperor looked at his daughter, who had grown to his chest, and smiled brightly.
So, with a little hope, she took one step further and handed a question.
“Uh, so can I get a little more freedom in the future?”
Thump, thump.
The Princess’s heart was pounding for some reason.
In fact, she’d always wanted to get involved in anything he did, but she would face desperate opposition from her father every time.
There was only one thing she was allowed to do with him. Watching from a safe place.
That was all.
“Obviously, you deserve a chance now.”
“Father!”
Gabriella was so happy that she even clapped her hand a little.
She, of course, did not forget to straighten her posture quickly and bow her back.
“Thank you for the permission.”
“Is there any reason to object that my daughter is trying to be a good monarch?”
The two suddenly stood in front of the place where numerous knights and nobles lined up.
When the attendant loudly announced the arrival of the Emperor and Princess, everyone present fell to their knees.
Putting the sharp weapon on the ground and kneeling down meant perfect trust and loyalty.
Gabriella felt something pounding in her heart.
One day, she will rise to the position of leading them completely.
Will she be able to overcome the pressure?
No, she had to.
Because she is no longer a young Princess who seemed to be living in a house of sweets.
“My Gabi.”
To the words the Emperor called quietly, she answered with strength in her hand.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“The victory in today’s hunting competition is yours.”
“. . . !”
She looked at her father in surprise.
Gabriella has been practicing for quite some time to look great today.
Blisters and bursts, until the flesh hardens.
Still, from her first appearance at the age of sixteen, she never thought that he would win.
She just wanted to not show a shameful appearance.
Gabriella rejoiced in her heart for his father wishing her victory.
“Really, thank you . . .”
“While you wait here, I will make it happen.”
However, the declaration she heard soon after was quite different from what she had expected.
That’s what the Emperor intended to do.
“I will hunt big things that no one can beat and give them to you.”
The Emperor took a handkerchief from his arms and tied it neatly to his daughter’s wrist.
“Oh, no, Your-!”
Gabriella tried to retaliate by saying something, but she couldn’t say anything to the huge shouts that rushed around her.
Soon the drum rang at regular intervals.
Dong, dong, dong.
At the sound of the beating resounding high in the sky, the people shouted with excitement.
Some shouted while raising their weapons high.
Doong!
For a long time, it was like that. When the last drum stopped sounding, silence remained among the people.
But the excitement that made everyone’s eyes twinkle remained there.
The Emperor announced the start of the contest.
“The winner will be worthy of honor and reward!”
