Chapter 20
Chapter 20: The Emperor’s Daughter Chapter . 20
As my insides were exploding, Dranste looked down above me with a big cheerful grin .
That damned guy, that rotten f*cker, that f*cker that deserved to die!
In the end, I glared at him with a death glare and picked a fight with him .
I hate the sight of him laughing to death! I peered at him with my slitted eyes and threw a question at him .
‘What the hell are you?’
“Huh?”
Drantse, who shortly laughed, cocked his head . Thanks to that, Drantse’s seductive smile disappeared from his mouth .
Ah, now my inwards feel better .
His short black hair with blue lights shook . The blue eyes that couldn’t be hidden in the dark looked at me .
“To say ‘What’, you’re pretty good . Really good, actually . ”
What the hell are you saying? Caitel wasn’t a person who made sense, but this guy took the cake for coming out of the left field . Ah, even just talking was tiring . This damn guy .
“What do you think am I?”
‘Pig . ’
“Do you want to die?”
Don’t threaten me as you laugh . Even if you do that, it wouldn’t work .
Dranste must have felt wrong because he made a crying face .
It wouldn’t work though .
From above me, I could hear him go, “Chi!” Ugh! Why was everyone who tried to play with me a bratty kid? Was I not supposed to be the bratty baby, or were they the bratty baby? Ah, Serira was the exception .
Anyway, that’s that…
Ah, there was no answer coming to mind . I couldn’t even grasp an idea or feeling . He said he wasn’t a ghost .
He’s too wretched to be a god so exclude that . Dragon? There couldn’t be a creature like that…
Of course, celestial beings were also excluded . Then the only thing left was…
Demon?
“Caitel does call me that . ”
‘Then are you saying you’re not?;
He laughed at my reply . His laughing form as he went “kh kh kh” looked like a crazy person, so I didn’t even want to be close to him . The problem was I couldn’t crawl away! Yet that person could walk!
“We will see each other often until the day Caitel dies, so you don’t have to abuse your head anymore . Someday, you may figure it out . ”
‘Are you trying to comfort me? Wanna die? No, I’m curious now . Tell me . Now . ’
“Uh huh, you have an impatient personality, lady . ”
Ah…
God, If you can make my hand and body grow up right now, so I could just hit that knucklehead once, I will sell my soul . Yes?
Were you saying you won’t receive my soul?
Ugh, fuck .
I felt dispirited and leaned against the safety rail of the crib . As I let out several deep sighs, Dranste reached his hand out for me . Then he held my hand up and laid a kiss on it .
It was something he did so often I just left him alone when suddenly, his eyes that were on me sparkled .
What wrong with this thing?
At that moment he laughed .
“When you grow up, will you like to be my bride?”
Get out and die .
“Here . Ah, so pretty . ”
Serira was randomly giving it her all at playing dressing up doll with me . The custom fitted white dress was put on me .
The clothes were pretty, but being dressed up so suddenly was also quite burdensome .
‘What’s going on, everyone?’
“This outfit seems to be the best one . ”
Elene, who was at the side, took out something from the mountain of clothes piled up . Serira reached out with just one hand and took the outfit . Then she handed me over to Elene to hold instead .
I noticed that Elene’s embrace was softer then Serira’s .
If one would ask me if I like it more then the answer was no . I was afraid her strength would overflow in her grip in her attempt to hold me and fall over . Ugh .
“That’s right, hold her for a bit . ”

Then she started to go through the clothes with more decisiveness .
Ah, I’m dizzy . This was good and all, but could I go sit down somewhere? I knew it’s comfortable since everyone was holding me, but I felt the most relaxed when I was sitting by myself .
“Oohah ooh ahh . ”
“Princess, you like it too right?”
… I think I did have a communication disability . Look at what comes out of my mouth!
Serira couldn’t understand what I was saying and neither could Elene .
Hah! Such a cruel world! I gave up . That’s right, it’s easier if one would just give up
“This outfit or this outfit?”
She measured a red dress then a blue dress on my body . Elene seriously pondered .
“I think a red dress is better than blue . A dress with a reddish hue is prettier . ”
“If you think about it, the hair is . . ”
Both people were dead silent as they looked at the two dresses in front of them .
‘What does it matter what I wear? I can wear whatever . ’
I started to get a headache just watching them waste so much energy thinking over a dress .
“Thish one! Thish one!”
I ended up having to get involved . Serira smiled as I pointed to the red dress .
“This one, does Princess like this one?”
She asked while smiling . No, but I didn’t want to get worried about it any longer .
I busied myself by nodding and laughing . Elene and Serira didn’t look satisfied with the dress I picked, but they felt they had no choice since that was the one I liked .
Now it turns out the purpose of this dress was…for a party being held tomorrow .
Telling an eight-month-old baby to go attend a party was a pretty funny thing to do, but since it’s my own father’s birthday party there was no other choice .
‘If it’s Dad’s birthday then I have to go . Yup . Who knows what will happen to me if I don’t go?
Even if I was a Wah-Wah crying baby, this was an unavoidable reality . Ugh!’
“Then we will use this outfit, so what should we do about the hairpiece?”

Not only was it a party for Caitel’s birthday, but envoys all over the continent were coming to celebrate too .
According to Elaine’s gossip, all the countries Caitel conquered, including the ones he never even touched were coming . All kinds of people with different styles of clothes and culture, almost literally all of them were coming together just to give a long-drawn-out speech that’s mostly them just talking at length about literally nothing on this occasion .
It was two empires, six kingdoms, two coalitions (United Kingdoms), and one republic . They were all coming together with bribes to offer as a tribute and a woman to seduce Caitel with… Anyway, they were really wrapping all kinds of things while coming here .
It looked like Dad was gonna be busy thanks to all those people with all kinds of goals .
Of course, when I grew up, I would be busy too . However, for now, thanks to my youth, I just had to attend the party, and it’s the end for me .
I didn’t even have to stay for a long time which was good news .
Now that I thought about it, I was the only princess of the Agrigent Empire . It was a problem that I only remembered at times like this, but I was Caitel’s only daughter .
Not only that, but I have five names .
It is Ariadna Lereg Ilestri Pre Agregiant .
Wow, it’s so long it’s scary . Just memorizing it made my brain go numb .
As I marvel at the length of my own name I felt someone come from behind me . As I turned my head, Ellene, who was holding me, turned around too .
It was a maid .
When our gazes met, she bowed politely .
“His Majesty calls for the princess . ”
“Ah-ta . ” (Appa for dad)
As soon as I saw Caitel, I was in his embrace in no time . I guess he finished his work for the day because there was not a single piece of paper in his study .
Ferdel must have swiped all of it .
I saw him a couple of times but he’s not a normal guy . However, I was not saying he’s a crazy guy either .
“Is that suppose to be ‘dad’?”
“Yes, your Majesty . ”
Couldn’t you just tell by listening? I was calling you Dad .
Now that I thought about my accent… It’s sad, so don’t say anything . Shh .
As I felt his eyes focus on me, by instinct, I reached out to pull his hair while laughing . Caitel was not so petty he’d get angry at me for playing with his hair which was a good thing .
‘Hey, Papa aren’t I loveable by now?’

“She’s prettier now . ”
It was as if he read my mind because he gave me an answer . My face lit up as I pulled Caitel’s neck towards me .
Really? For real?
“She was so ugly before . ”
… . Ah . I tried to look upon you with affection . Ugh!
“Yew-ah-uhgwy . ” (Baby talk: You are ugly)
You were ugly too! I’m not the only ugly one!
I babbled away but, as I said before, I must have some kind of communication disability .
Caitel just looked at Serira with a blank expression .
“What is she saying?”
“I, I don’t know…”
I hate both of you .
‘I want to be alone . All of you leave . ’
I couldn’t do anything about the rush of sadness I felt surging inwards .
I was a ruin .
As I lamented by myself, I felt the fervent desire to one day be able to pronounce human words . I heard loud laughter coming from the side . Just as I thought, when I turned around, there was Dranste cackling next to Caitel .
‘Don’t laugh, you jerk . ’
“If only Caitel understood… It would have been a masterpiece . How regrettable . ”
‘If you feel that way then just let him know . ’
At my remark, Dranste just shrugged his shoulders . Then the words that came out of his mouth was…
“It’s a lot more fun if he doesn’t know . ”
Oh, you jerk .
