“OppaOppaOppa!”
“HyungHyungHyung!”
Rosé and Ferre, ignoring the flustered Jean and Raphael, bounced up and hung onto one of Helios’s shoulders each.
Just as Helios was about to scold them for interrupting his work, the twins, seeming to have a lot to say, pointed at the newspapers on the desk that Jean had brought.
“Look at this! Look at this, Heli Oppa! We saw it too!”
“Yeah, Heli Hyung! We heard everything too!”
“The maids were all looking at this!”
“It’s been going around the palace too! Rosé and I saw it all too!”
Rosé and Ferre’s faces were as red as tomatoes, and they were huffing angrily.
Initially, Helios thought they were excitedly happy, but upon closer inspection, he realized that Rosé and Ferre were not happy, but angry.
“Rosé, Ferre. I don’t know why you’re angry, but calm down…”
Helios tried to soothe Rosé and Ferre, but his words had no effect.
“I hate Oppa, I hate Oppa, I hate Oppa!”
“Hyung bad, Hyung bad, Hyung bad!”
The twins just kept repeating those two sentences over and over like a mantra.
Helios looked at Rosé and Ferre and sighed, drained.
It seemed he had to postpone scolding them, and with a forgiving expression, he met the twins’ gazes.
“Rosé. Ferre. If you tell me why you’re angry, maybe I can explain the reason too.”
“You really don’t know, Hyung?”
“Oppa, are you really asking because you don’t know?”
As Helios slowly nodded, Rosé and Ferre turned their heads sharply.
“Hmph!”
They expressed their displeasure, then poked their little fingers at several photos in the newspapers.
“How can Sera and you meet just the two of you!”
“Right! You know that me and Ferre want to meet with Sera very very very much too!”
That was the reason.
Helios rubbed his forehead, relieved that it wasn’t a big deal, yet exasperated.
Just as he was about to make various excuses, Jean abruptly interjected.
“Don’t be too angry, Your Highnesses. His Majesty has everything thought out. Maybe soon Miss Sera and…”
Helios quickly got up and covered Jean’s mouth.
With a smile that seemed almost like a threat, Jean gulped and nodded.
The problem was Rosé.
“Oppa, don’t tell me with Sera…”
Rosé’s eyes sparkled a bright green, seemingly excited about what was to come.
“No, Rosé. It’s not like that.”
Helios waved his hands urgently.
“Hmm?”
Rosé tilted her head curiously, then suddenly turned around, covering her mouth with both hands and giggling.
As usual, Ferre, struggling to keep up, poked Rosé’s ribs as she laughed.
“Why. Why are you giggling all of a sudden, Rosé?”
Rosé glanced at Helios. She lifted the corners of her mouth to her cheeks and said cutely.
“Secret!”

“You should be able to leave the temple in a few days. I’ve also informed His Majesty.”
Roward, having completed the final examination, beamed as he conveyed his final opinion to Sera.
After waking up from her coma, Sera had undergone regular examinations related to the curse for a month, and indeed, the results showed no trace of the curse.
Despite people being very worried, she had to keep receiving divine power treatments, but that was ending today.
“Thank you, Sir Mage.”
“Not at all, Your Eminence the Saintess.”
“You don’t have to call me that.”
Sera gave an embarrassed smile at the title she wasn’t used to.
“It seems there are more people at the temple than usual today.”
Sera casually mentioned, looking out at the crowd outside.
Since it was revealed that she was staying in this temple as the Saintess, the number of visitors had exploded, but today seemed exceptionally high.
It looked to be at least double.
“Umm… Saintess.”
Araella turned to Sera and hesitated to speak.
“Did you read the newspaper today by any chance?”
“The newspaper? I couldn’t read it because of the examination preparations. Was there a special article published?”
Araella seemed contemplative, then asked Sera to wait a moment.
Within a few minutes, she returned and handed a newspaper to Sera.
“What is this?”
“Today’s newspaper.”
[ Surprise Date: The Emperor and the Empire’s Saintess Are Dating! ]
As soon as she saw the large headline and photo, Sera bowed her head in embarrassment.
She hadn’t expected that her date with Helios would be captured and printed out in such a large photo.
Moreover, the photo was zoomed in so explicitly on them holding hands that it occupied half of the picture.
Remembering the past, where such hand-holding had been described in an overly sweet manner, Sera anxiously skimmed through the article.
The part that started to color Sera’s face with horror was the content of an interview with a priest of the temple.
[ One priest from the temple, who asks to remain anonymous, was asked if he could confirm their relationship and he answered this way.
“The two of them are very passionate. It’s like seeing the former Emperor and Empress. The two of them have passionate kisses at the temple…” ]
Eek.
Appalled, Sera could not bear to read any further and threw the newspaper away entirely.
Seeing Araella and Roward blushing as well and unable to meet her eyes, it seemed they had read the article, too.
‘It’s all His Majesty’s fault! I don’t know anymore!’
