* * *

Under the pretext of celebrating Rosé and Ferre’s completed mana manifestation, Sera visited the Star Palace.

She had been coming to the palace almost as frequently as when she had been their tutor.

Nobody found it unusual for her to visit so often, likely because of her unique status.

Sera sat on the terrace, enjoying chocolate cake with the twins.

Now, things no longer floated around, and there were no more tremors. The environment around Rosé and Ferre had stabilized considerably.

However, the overall atmosphere in the palace, unlike the serene Star Palace, was bustling and busy.

Sera contemplated the reason behind the unusually high presence of mages today.

She turned halfway to Jean, who stood behind her, and asked,

“Sir Knight, is there some event happening? There seems to be a lot of mages here today.”

The mages in the procession were all carrying bundles of books and papers.

Rosé and Ferre seemed to share Sera’s thoughts, as they nodded in agreement while absentmindedly stuffing their cheeks with their food.

“Yeah. Just like Sera said, there’s so many more mages today.”

“Don’t the mages always just stay at the palace’s magic tower? And they don’t get out.”

Sera and the children turned to Jean, asking if he knew anything.

Jean scratched his head and replied,

“I don’t have all the details, but I heard something related to the incident that happened at the Imperial Villa…”

“The Imperial Villa?”

Jean nodded subtly, making eye contact with Sera.

The villa…

She couldn’t say she wasn’t concerned about what had happened there, but her worries were perhaps less pronounced than others, even though she was directly involved.

She never told anyone, but at the end of the day, she was someone who had her past memories intact.

At the back of her mind, she had a feeling that this was partly the reason why she couldn’t use any magic, even though she hadn’t found a clear reason.

So, while others might see that incident related to her as something exceptional, she naturally accepted the unusual phenomena without realizing it.

She just figured that Helios would share new information when it became available.

However, seeing so many mages gathered like this today made her feel uneasy.

What could they have found out that had all the palace mages bustling around? Sera was curious about why the mages were suddenly so busy.

“Sera, what’re you thinking?”

“Me? Your Highness Ferre?”

Ferre, who had been watching the passing mages in a daze, tugged at Sera’s arm. Sera turned to look at the children.

Somewhere along the way, their faces were messily smeared with a mess of dark chocolate.

“We finished the cake, so we’re gonna wash our faces.”

“All right, please go ahead.”

Looking at the twins, who had grown up to the point where they could wash their faces on their own, Sera affectionately patted their heads.

Rosé and Ferre proudly puffed their chests in response, then they hopped down from their chairs, heading off to wash their faces.

“Pardon me, Miss Sera.”

Taking advantage of the twins’ absence, Jean, who had been standing by the wall, approached Sera.

Sera, who didn’t quite understand what he meant, raised an eyebrow. Jean fidgeted nervously, scratching his neck.

“Are you busy this weekend?”

“This weekend…?”

Sera was about to say that she had no plans, but she changed her mind when she saw Jean’s expression.

He had been making a face like he had something to say ever since they visited her home.

He had also asked about her meeting with Count Peters. …It seemed like he was trying to ask her out on a date.

She couldn’t tell him that she was already seeing someone.

And that someone being Helios.

Sera felt a bit awkward about how to turn him down.

“Um, well… Sir Knight.”

Thankfully, Jean realized her hesitation before she answered.

He looked disappointed and asked in a voice filled with regret,

“Are you already dating someone?”

Sera hesitated about how to respond, her face filled with embarrassment.

“Yes… Only recently.”

Feeling it was difficult to explain in detail, she hesitated to respond.

But seeing Sera’s difficulty in elaborating, Jean fully understood and told her not to worry.

He smiled even brighter and congratulated her.

“I’m happy for you, Miss Sera. Don’t think too much of what I would have said.”

“Thank you for your support, Sir Jean.”

Sera and Jean shared an awkward laugh.

At that moment, there was a little soft thump, and when they both looked towards that direction, they saw Ferre stumbling at the entrance of the terrace.

“Your Highness Ferre! What’s wrong? Are you hurt?”

Sera quickly rushed to help Ferre to her feet, brushing off the dirt on her knees. With a blank expression, Ferre whispered softly.

“Sera, you’re dating someone? Who?”

Ferre overheard the conversation she had with Jean.

Honestly speaking, Sear knew that the twins would be delighted to hear the news. While the children might have been happy about it, considering the reality that she was in, she knew that she should keep it a secret for as long as possible.

But she couldn’t lie about it either.

Sera gently patted the teary-eyed Ferre on the back.

And Rosé, who was there beside her twin brother, holding his hand, tried to pull him up to hug him. However, strangely, Rose, who should have reacted louder, had no reaction.

“Your Highness Rosé?”

Rosé’s green eyes met Sera’s, and the little girl’s lips suddenly curled up in a mischievous smile. She was clearly ecstatic.

She leaned closer to Sera and whispered in her ear.

“I don’t know anything, Sera.”

Startled, Sera gauged Rosé.

Tilting her head to the side, Rosé was wearing an undeniably mischievous expression.

That’s what she said, but it seemed like Rosé already knew everything.

Sera couldn’t shake the feeling that she had been caught.

‘…Where and how did she find out?’
