Chapter 4

"Even though you are a little princess, you must have heard about my bad reputation, haven't you? As my queen, you might not have a very enjoyable time in this court..."

Ferris took Letizia's small hand.

"...Um..."

"Hmm?"

It's hard to ask.

But it's on my mind.

"Please, feel free to ask any questions, Princess?"

Though hesitant and hesitant, Letizia was encouraged by Ferris.

"Why are you spoken of so poorly, Ferris-sama?"

"Hmm. I wonder why."

He laughed, looking troubled.

"I try not to be a hindrance, but perhaps just my presence is bothersome to some."

The current King Marius of Diana is twenty-seven years old, ten years older than Ferris-sama. Ferris-sama is his half-brother, born of a different mother.

"That's not true. Ferris-sama is not bothersome at all."

I think he's being modest, but I couldn't help but shake my head and seriously deny it.

I don't want it to become a bad omen.

I need to properly deny it.

It's a mystery whether this country has the concept of words having power.

"...Thank you, Letizia."

Ferris smiled, looking a bit dazzled and happy.
