Claire was surprised.Suddenly, it was the Duke of Aston, the Duchess, and Silane, Sir Rendell, Luca, and Lois, who in turn shouted.When several people shouted at once like some kind of surfing, Elliot also had a puzzled expression.”dismissal.”Lord Rendell called the Duke of Aston with a serious expression.”Summon the knights.””I would like to meet the Empress in person.”When the Duke of Aston gave the order, he raised his hand as if he had become Ines, and said:Meanwhile, Claire was surprised inside.’Elliot believed what I said.’Apparently in the Imperial Palace, Claire said that the woman pushed him.But she made excuses for that woman. She said that Claire was surprised by herself and fell over.However, Elliot believed Claire’s words were true, not the woman’s.Rafine was very proud and grateful for that fact.But for now, that’s it.Claire opened her mouth to rectify the situation.”No one was hurt!”But Claire’s words were of no avail.”A member of the legislature right now.””Ugh… our baby…”Ines took Claire from the Duke who was looking for a member of Parliament and began to sob as she embraced it.She seemed surprised to find out that the child she had found after six years had returned from the Imperial Palace (?).* * *Fortunately, Claire managed to manage the situation well.At least, the duke dragged the knights and attacked the imperial castle was prevented.But…”I must see the Empress tomorrow immediately.””Shall I go with you, madam?””No, you know the woman. I will take care of this.”At Ines’s resolute words, the Duke of Aston nodded like a loyal servant.”You push a child. She deserves an explanation, no matter how much she might be the wife of Lord Laurelian.”Ines said boldly.Claire felt his heart beating strangely for nothing.’I feel weird.’She felt strange that a mother, and no one else, would do that for her.But she wasn’t in a bad mood.Although her chest is pounding, it warms her heart to know that she is being protected.So Claire…”Uh, Mom…”… ‘ he whispered carefully without realizing it and put him in her arms.”… Claire?”It was the moment when Claire first uttered the word ‘mom’ out of her mouth.”honey!” “mother…”The Duke of Aston and Elliot summoned Ines for joy. Ines was bewildered by the fact that she couldn’t believe it, and then she gradually accepted the situation.Tears were dripping down from her eyes.Claire hesitated, wiping her tears from Ines’s cheek.At the warm touch of her little child, Ines began to cry profusely.”Ugh… I’m sorry. I’m sorry mom… Sorry…”As a result, the Duke of Aston, Elliot, and even Luca and Lois were suffocated with tears.Even those who watched her took out her handkerchief and drank her tears.Thanks to this, Claire’s shoulders gradually shook, and she said, “Ugh!” She did and started to cry.Her child’s body was hard to stop once the cry broke out.* * *And that night.Claire was taken to her own room, not her duke’s bedroom, and (?) slept with her mom and dad.’I cried a lot…’She was fortunate enough to have her stomach full after crying. If she hadn’t, she would have continued to frown like her child.「Good job, sweetheart. You did really well. I almost cried too.」「Jeo Doo-yong, my lord. As a water spirit, I so coveted my master’s tears… First, I was so sad.」Claire lightly ignored her Orphana’s words.It won’t snow tomorrow, will it?still…’I rather like it.’After the duke and everyone cried, Ines became even more indignant.So she decided to go find the Empress immediately with Claire tomorrow morning.’It’s still one o’clock in a hurry. I was trying to force myself to want to go to the Imperial Palace again by lying on my back. very good That’s good.’「Yes, sweetheart. I took the opportunity well!」If you meet the Empress tomorrow, you can meet her too.’For the time being, I will be staying in the residence of the guests of the Imperial Palace… The Empress loved her youngest sister very much, so she will stay by her side. I will take care of the wedding preparations myself.’For Claire, Anna was staying in the capital, the Imperial Fortress, as an opportunity.She’s a bud that will cause big problems, so it’s good to deal with her when she has a chance.If you miss this opportunity, you never know when another will come.So, it was important for her not to miss the opportunity that came to her for the first time.Claire thought so, made a firm decision, and said to Orphana.Orphana, the official contract is a bit different… Let’s make a temporary contract.’「master… You’re finally accepting me! It’s such a pleasure! Aaaaah! Aaaaah! Aaaaah like!」「Ah! Shut up you idiot! Don’t scream before you tear your body apart!」 At Orphana and Ruby’s shouts, Claire was also terrified.’Ah! Noisy!’「Aaaaah! happy! AAAAAAAA!」’Aaaaah!’「Aaaah!」Today, Claire’s head was noisy.* * *So Claire decided to sign a temporary contract with Orpana.But before that, let’s take a look.’Orphan. Instead, I have a condition.’Claire had no intention of accepting Orphana lightly.「What condition? ?」There was a sense of tension in Orpana’s voice.’Tell me how to do it.’「…」 I know. You’re going to need some strength to use this method anyway! Instead, I have a condition!」’Are you kidding me now? What other conditions are there!’「Listen now!」「Baby, that guy is a scammer!」Claire groaned inwardly. Anyway, Orfana was a really cunning guy.「If this work is successful, please sign a formal contract with me! That’s the condition! I will definitely succeed! I’ll listen carefully to the owner! I will become a good spirit!」’… Why are you so obsessed with me? I don’t understand.’「That’s because the owner is cute. It was my wish to have a cute owner.」’Oscar is cute too.’「…」 .」Orphana pretended not to hear, and she did not answer. after… get hotClaire eventually decided to step back.To acquire one, one must give up one.’… great. Instead, it’s only when it’s really perfectly successful. Perfect enough to admit! But I have a condition.’「Yeing! Again?」You can’t yield everything to the cunning Orphana.’If I get a job well and make a contract with you… Before I sign a contract with you, I’ll sign a contract with Ruby first.’「Hey…」「…」 Baby!」Ruby exclaimed in a thrilled voice.「baby… Black, I was counting on you! Of course I believed it!」’If it is not for this condition, I will not do it. I’m going to throw away the bracelet right now.’Orphana also decided to back down by one step due to Claire’s determination.「Okay, Master. After all, the master will love me even more… Only this time, this Orphana will yield.」’So what should I do? Quickly tell me how.’「That’s…」Orphana got excited and started chattering.「I was living with only blue jewels among the things that were passed down as treasures from the empress’s family.」’therefore?’「Since the Empress came to the Imperial Castle, she has always been in her jewelry box! She knows her character very well, as she has been very close to the Empress.」’The problem is that the Empress has to find out that the woman is pregnant with another man’s child.’「Simple. The Empress believes deeply in her spirit divination!」’Elemental dots?’Claire thought, blinking.’It’s a spirit dot…’It was even mentioned in a children’s book that Silane had read.To the extent that people in this world firmly believe in the existence of spirits, the myths about spirits are regarded as folk beliefs.So, what is a spirit dot?You can cast special spells and then divination using water from nature, tree branches, petals, wind, and soil.In the private sector, mainly wizards with weak magical powers made a living from it.The wizards believed in the spirits as much as the source of the magic they used was nature.However, in the temple, people did not like the belief in the folk belief of the spirit divination.The temple believed that the divine power given by the gods was more noble, strong, and just than the power of spirits or magic.However, unlike in the distant past, the power of paladins and priests with divine power was weakening, so their power was declining.In that situation, as if a generational change, magicians with power appeared increasingly.’Perhaps the temple will be very nervous.’The temple pretended to respect magic on the surface, but beneath him he was restraining the wizards.’I wondered why the temple hates the Empress so much, and there must be a reason for this.’The Empress was a person who believed in the existence of spirits rather than the formal religion taught by the temple.
