Chapter 62
At the same time, on top of the Hope .
With the help of a magician, Seria, who became an old lady, was checking the ledger at the top of Hope .
“Curtis . ”
The man approached her .
“Luminous medicine is running out of stock . ”
It was Curtis, her acquaintance who brought Seria’s bounty to Dubbled’s in the past .
“I told the mages to hurry up and bring them . I’ll refine immediately upon arrival . ”
“Yes . Oh, and there was a message saying to keep the doctors under control . ”
He also delivered a letter from LeBlaine to Seria .
The letter said [The doctors should be careful not to put priority on making money, and from now on, sell a little less medicine than usual] .
Curtis, who checked the letter together, said,
“Why is she suddenly asking us to cut back on sales? It’s getting popular, we’ll be able to make a lot of money if we increase the circulation . ”
“Well, all I know is that the owner will never give a stupid order . ”
Curtis sank for a moment and nodded .
He knew nothing about the top of the hope, but only knew that she’s amazing .
As if she knew in advance what would happen to disasters such as famine and floods, her words were able to avoid danger and gain enormous wealth .
‘Amazing sense . ’
Given that the top of hope had Spinel’s landfill even before it was launched, she is a huge owner of capital .
Then she must be noble, but she knew how to understand the workers at the top of hope . She never treated the workers poorly .
It wasn’t that difficult to take workers, who were always considered a nuisance by other tops, thanks to the generous rewards .
The loyalty of the workers increased day by day due to higher wages and welfare compared to the other place, and those who wanted to get a job there were overflowing .
Someone even made the owner a fanclub and there are even many members .
“Oh, did you find the person the owner wanted to find out about?”
“There are a few people who might be it, but it’s hard to confirm . ”
“Find them at all costs . You can never let the owner down . ”
Seria, the representative of the owner’s follower club, threatened the man .
After finishing up, I came down the stairs .
And as soon as I saw my dad and brothers waiting under the stairs, I shouted, “Wow!”
The three men who were dressed, are very stunning
High and straight nose, beautiful and sharp eyes .
Not only their appearance but also their tall, slim bodies are great, so they fit in with whatever clothes they use .
However, they are equipped with custom-made luxurious and special robes, which makes them more stunning .
“How wonderful!”
As I spoke, they gently patted my cheeks and laughed .
“You’re very pretty, too . ”
Perhaps this isn’t just a flattery .
In the last three lives, no one thought I was pretty .
My body is so skinny that bones are sticking out . My hairstyle was taken care of carelessly to cut off some cost .
I wouldn’t have looked pretty even if I tried to look nice .
In this life, however, it has definitely changed because I received intensive care from Dubbled employees .
My body had no ugly protruding parts, my face is smooth without blemishes, and my curly hair, which was my complex, is without any damage .
In addition, Melvin made the dress with great care, a cute lace ribbon, and even shoes .
In the mirror, I look like a pretty little girl who grew up in a rich house .
‘This is the miracle of money . ’
I laughed thinking that way .
“Shall we go?”
Henry asked and I nodded .
We moved to the banquet hall in a carriage . It was the Imperial Palace’s hall where the three major festivals of the Empire were held .
At the door of the hall, the voice of the servant rang out to announce their entrance .
The eyes of the people turned to us at once .
In my last life, I had attended the festival with the duke, but this was always nerve-wracking .
‘There…’
I clasped my hands with a cold sweat .
Duke Amity and Duke Vallua did not attend the banquet this year .
The Duke of Amity is the only one who doesn’t go to such parties as the Duke of Dubbled, and the Duke of Vallua left in a hurry because of a flood in the land .
I know that, but I was afraid I’d suddenly meet them . The trauma was stimulated and it was an unprecedented state of tension .
‘Calm down . Today’s purpose is the empress . ’
I’m going back after meeting the Empress .
Dad and brothers were already surrounded by people .
Dad looked as bored as ever, Henry was talking to people with a smile, and Isaac looked so irritated .
I’m supposed to be like them too .
At times like this, people usually hang out with young children their age through the introduction of their mother, but I wasn’t aware of it because I didn’t have a mother .
At that time, the loud voice of the servant came in .
“Your Majesty the Empress!”
People stepped back at once .
Henry pulled my arm slightly so I wouldn’t be swept away .
“I greet the mother of the Empire . ”
“Thank you for coming to my party . ”
Those who saw the smiling empress looked at each other with troubled faces .
‘Oh, today,… . ’
Technically, it was the Empress who hosted the festival, but it was the imperial event .
Not ‘The Empress’ Party’ .
She was so kind and gentle at first, but the Empress had a bad temperament . In addition, she was very greedy, so she boasted of her authority with subtle words .
‘The Emperor would have hit his forehead again if he heard it . ’
“Oh, it’s the child of fate . ”
As the eyes of the empress turned to me, the audience also paid attention to me .
“Come here . ”
Henry nodded a little toward me . I cautiously walked among people who were divided like the red sea and went to her .
“I greet the mother of the empire . ”
Spreading her skirt, she spoke and looked at the Empress .
The empress held my hand with a kind face .
“You’ve grown a lot . Oh my God, you’ve grown so much . ”
I have often seen the empress in my past life, but in this life, she has not seen her on my own because of Dubbled’s strong refusal and close escort .
“The girl who would be the saviour of the empire could not be seen until she grew up, How can I raise my head to God when I die?”
The people looked at each other with a troubled face again .
It wasn’t right for the imperial family to talk about God in public .
The empire is not a state ruled by the Pope . In other words, even though Nelliard is the state religion, there is no need to believe it . However, if the royal family came out and gave power to the church, it was no different from forcing the people to believe in it .
In addition, the empress’s word could have been seen as a sign to the duke of dubbled .
I hid my laugh .
“I wanted to see the empress since I didn’t remember you very well . I was looking forward to seeing you, and you look better than I imagined!”
I said it in a childish way on purpose . I didn’t say it to flatter her .
The empress smiled even more brightly .
“You’re very lovely . I was worried because you’re growing up in Dubbled, but it was a useless thought . ”
“Yo-Your highness . ”
The maid called her in embarrassment . But the empress didn’t even listen .
“Come sit next to me . Let me know how you’ve been . ”
A short legged chair had been placed next to the empress’s chair .
I sat next to her and told many stories .
“So, I heard Duke Constance is having an affair . ”
“Truly, kids these days are amazing . ”
The empress who slightly raised her chin, shook her head .
But my words would be very exciting even that way . As evidence, her cheeks were red and she was short of breath .
No one would have told her about the rumours going around the palace . So how interesting would my stories be to her who lived in such a boring place?
‘I purposely asked Laura about the rumours . ’
Mina said something in my first life .
There’s something called a ‘morning drama’ in her world that consists of unthinkable stories . No adult dislikes those morning dramas .
“At the time of worship, a woman said that she wanted to go to the bathroom, but she couldn’t leave her seat . So she farted while saying a chant! Someone said ‘the trumpet player played very loudly today . ’”
“Ohohoho!”
The empress laughed .
I don’t really know why it’s so funny to her but it might be that funny for her who have never heard about such stories .
“It’s always difficult because the worship is long . Older people like me sometimes suffer . ”
Well, it was a sympathetic laugh .
“I love talking to you, it’s been a long time since I had such a pleasant time . ”
The empress looks so happy that the people were surprised .
The empress is a stubborn person and rarely shows such niceness to anyone .
“Next time, please come to the palace . ”
‘She got the bait . ’
I deliberately said this to her .
“But when I come to your place, there will be a priest, so my dad will be troubled . ”
Everyone in the country knows that the relationship between Dubbled and the church is bad . The empress knows this well too .
Understanding what I meant, she nodded .
“When you come, I won’t call the priest . ”
“Really? Wow! I want to go to your palace . ”
In a secret space where I can see the empress’s skin condition to be exact . Only when I know how much her skin disease has been cured, I can control the empress to abandon the church .
I hid my true motive and smiled brightly . Then the empress said, “Oh my . ”
“Wait a minute . It’s time for me to take my medicine . ”
When she reached out to the maid, the maid took out a small bottle of medicine .
Even in the first life, and in the second life, the empress is always healthy . There was nothing wrong but a skin disease .
But she’s taking meds?
“Your Majesty, are you sick? I didn’t know that you’ve been taking medicine . ”
When I forced my eyebrows down and asked, the empress laughed .
“Don’t worry . It’s a medicine for youth . It’s a rather embarrassing name . ”
What are you talking about?
I never sell that much medicine at once .
“I know . I heard what the grandfathers who went there said . I heard they sell it at the top of hope . ”
As I said so, the empress took the bait .
“It’s not the top of the Hope . It’s a new medicine developed by the church . ”
“Can I see what it is?”
The empress gave me a bottle of medicine .
I smelled the scent and checked the color .
