K, Keum. Not that he had actually said that. It was just my opinion.

“Princess, you look beautiful today, too!”

Aw, she was making me blush. The ladies all looked at me with shining eyes, and I complimented them as well. Not that I was making things up. They were really all pretty and adorable. Oh wait. Stop smiling Ati.

I pressed down the smile that kept on trying to creep up. And I greeted the person that had been looking at me for a while.

“Hello, Lady Margarita. The weather is nice today as well.”

I knew what she was looking at. The blue ribbon in my hair that was blowing in the wind. It was the handmade ribbon she got from the ribbon store. And Lili helped decorate my hair with her skills.

“Today, let’s go to the garden. The yellow roses have bloomed beautifully.”

Since people were looking, I didn’t mention the ribbon, but I smiled at Jannette with a thankful smile. And a smile spread across her face as well.

“As long as it’s with the Princess, anywhere is fine.”

She replied with a shy face.

“Oh, speaking of, would you like to go to the festival with me when it begins?”

“Ah, right, the Founding Celebration is right after the Emperor’s birthday.”

The time I spent with the ladies was fun.

“You must be participating in the Founding Celebration this year, Princess. I’m so excited.”

Like what they said, I needed to participate in official events now. I was already worried. The festival was incomparable to the debutante ball. What was I going to do? Even though I had heard from Lili and Felix that I would staying right next to Claude the entire time.

“Will you be going to the festival as well?”

Jannette asked with me with expectant eyes. Critical attack! Why was she looking at me with such a cute face?

“I’m not sure.”

Of course, I wanted to go, but I didn’t know if Claude would let me. He didn’t even let me go to the other ladies’ houses because apparently it was dangerous.

“Aw. I thought I would be able to go with the Princess.”

“Oh my. I heard that Lady Margarita had to stay at home when she was younger when she was young. Is that true?”

Another lady spoke up after Jannette asked me. Jannette replied with a yes. Aw. It was because she had to stay at home to hide her eyes. But it seemed like she was able to leave the house more freely now, with her leaving the house with Ezekiel that day, and coming to the castle like this to my tea party.

“Hm. But what’s that?”

Everyone looked towards where the lady was looking. Now that she said it, it did seem noisy somewhere.

“Arf!”

It was a familiar blurry object.

“Ack!”

“What’s that?”

“A monster! A monster has appeared!”

N,no! That wasn’t a monster, but Blackie.

But the surprised ladies started to scream and run around everywhere.

“Princess! Please escape!”

“W, wait! That isn’t a monster!”

“���!”

Jannette rushed over to pull me away.

“Blackie!”

I let go of Jannette and ran towards Blackie to calm everyone down. The other ladies had all escaped behind a tree. Oh now! Some people were hiding behind Felix.

“Oh! Princess!”

Blackie runned into my arms and licked my face.

“No! The Princess has been attacked!”

No, I haven’t! Would Felix stay still if I had?

“Arf!”

Ack, this friction!

I sighed and tried to calm Blackie down.

“Blackie, sit!”

Whine.

He sat down on the grass looking at me sadly. Huh, it was a good thing Lucas taught him to sit and stay. I didn’t use them normally, but I needed to to calm people down.

“Good. Good boy, Blackie.”

I stroked Blackie’s fur. Why was he here when he was supposed to be in the flower garden?

My question was answered by Hannah following him from behind, trying to catch her breath.

“Sorry, Princess! He must’ve smelt the new chocolate cake and he came running….”

So he had run over here after smelling the cake. Aw, our Blackie was so good at smelling things.

“P, Princess? That is?”

Oh oops. I forgot about Jannette behind me. Aw! The only person that had tried to save me was Jannette. It was so touching. She must’ve been scared like everyone else.

“Yes. He’s my pet.”

Actually, he was a magical beast. I awkwardly looked at Blackie.

“Oh. So it’s your pet.”

Jannette sighed in relief. I was touched once again. I won’t ever forget your bravery! That was a total girl crush move she did.

“Now, he really does seem nice and well-behaved.”

Jannette saw Blackie’s true self. Was this why they said that owners became happier when their pets were praised?

“May I pet him?”

Jannette truly was brave.

“Of course.”

I was touched that someone had recognized how cute Blackie was. Blackie was still calmly sittingin the grass.

Jannette curiously looked at Blackie.

“Arf.”

Blackie didn’t avoid Jannette’s hand. She stroked his head and I looked at him like a proud mom.

Aw, our blackie. Shall we give you a snack since you’re here?

The other ladies approached after seeing Jannette pet him. Jannette looked more relaxed petting him now. Looking proudly at him, I reached out to him.

Spark!

But it was then.

“Hm?”

The moment I touched Blackie, a sharp pain slithered to my heart. It felt like something was coming up. It was hot, like lava was coming up from my stomach. When I looked at his gold eyes, I couldn’t hold it in and dry heaved into my mouth.

“Uk!”

Huk. Was this familiar feeling perhaps…

Drip drip. Something red fell on the grass. Jannette, who was next to me, screamed.

“Princess!”

Gulp. Blood poured out of my mouth. I wasn’t able to hold myself up and fell on top of Blackie.

Spark!

“Ouch!”

Before Jannette was able to touch me, a bright light appeared. The sound of fireworks could be heard. I couldn’t tell if it was coming from within me or from outside.

“Princess!”

I could hear Felix’s shocked shout. I realized the light had prevented people from approaching me. Now I saw that Jannette had fainted after being shocked from almost touching me.

It was similar to what had happened to me when I was younger. I tried to move my hands, but my hands just barely moved on top of Blackie’s fur. Blackie’s fur was still wet with all the blood I was vomiting.

My surroundings were hectic. But a pain so great that I couldn’t move or speak overcame me, and my consciousness faded away.

Soon, a darkness trapped me.
