Chapter 41.1
At the main gate of the Heavenly Palace
Sister! How have you been?
Soniel, its been a while.
Jennifer put her arms around her sister, who was waiting for her at the palace gates.
Soniel also expressed her delight by wrapping her arms under her sisters shoulder.
This was the sister who she had not seen in a year.
Every moment of the expedition to subdue cultists as the first princess of the empire was meaningful and rewarding, but sometimes Jennifer couldnt help but feel like she wanted to enjoy the leisurely time and company of her loved ones in a place where there was no dust and mana fluctuations were always calm.Th/e most uptodat𝓮 n𝒐vels are published on n0velbj)n(.)co/m
She liked her sisters the most.
Unlike her parents sons, her time spent with her sisters, who were not interested in the throne, was always peaceful and where she could detach from reality, which would put her at ease.
Her four sisters were Soniel and Amer, and Miria and Quilly, who were still underage. Unbeknownst to her, these individuals had become the vitality and haven of her life.
As soon as Jennifer returned to the ecliptic to relieve her stress and recharge her spent energy, she visited Soniels castle.
They had a brief get-together in front of the door and then entered the parlour on the first floor.
It had been a whole year since having been to this palace.
It had been a long and exhausting year, but when she thought back to it now, a lot of things had happened during the time that had passed in an instant.
Stories piled up that neither Jennifer nor Soniel had been able to share with one of their own blood.
Jennifer planned to sleep here today.
Their conversation started with the story of how she went about subjugating the cultists.
She described the cruel and grotesque acts and cowardly methods of the wicked people, how she went about finding them, and how she eradicated them to the best of their abilities.
She gossiped about the rituals of the frenzied cultists, and the beauty of the mountains during all the different seasons of the year.
Soon, she moved on to speaking about her final story- The Cultist Surprise- in which she presented a shocking speculation.
This is just my guess... but the boy who was in the middle of them I think hes one of the five missing summoned.
Really?!
When Jennifer returned to the palace, the lady-in-waiting who managed the palace organized important events and information that needed to be relayed to the princess who had been away.
At the heart of all this news, of course, was the Summoners Cataclysm.
Cataclysms, which occurred approximately every 300 years, had been central to history in every era.
Jennifer had wanted to see this year pass quietly, but it seemed that the gods wanted to observe a new story unfold.
22 summoned beings
Their testimony informed them that the total number of individuals in their class was 27.
And there were a total of 27 different attributes.
22 of the summoned had awakened to attributes as if they were fated to have.
Therefore, it could be guessed that the remaining 5 people had to be elsewhere on the continent with the remaining 5 attributes awakened.
And Jennifer believed she had seen one of them
In a very sorry situation at that.
Do you think that simply because hes a young man with black hair and black eyes? Do you have any other clues?
The grey suit he was wearing. Of course, I didnt know it at the time, but it looks like what the summoned people call school uniform.
...Then its certainly quite likely.
*Tsk*
Jennifer clicked her tongue in embarrassment and pity.
Since he had been taken by the cult, it would surely not look good for her.
She recalled the scene again.
There had been an unconscious man and a kettle-shaped artefact placed in the centre of the encirclement of black-robed priests.
Startled by her attack, they hurriedly got around the man and even took the kettle and tried to run away, but she barely stopped them in time.
If I had known it would be like this, I would have taken that man away even if it was a little harder than expected.
At that time, she had to choose between the man who already looked hopeless, of which one could find everywhere, and a kettle that looked very suspicious.
After weighing the value of the two at that moment, Jennifer chose the latter.
Leave that kettle to me. Ill do some research on it.
Yes, please.
The unfortunate topic was put aside, and their conversation continued.
They talked about Amers awakening, Soniels new position as director of the academy, which she had been in the office for a month now, and the unknown whereabouts of the unknown being that had invaded the ecliptic.
After taking a sip of her fruit juice and looking across the room, she spotted Soniel who was sipping her black tea with an elegant posture.
She really was a little sister who lacked in no departments.
From her beautiful appearance, caring personality, brilliant brain and her outstanding skills, to her continental class attribute.
So, I have to be careful when I ask this...
Because Jennifer knew better than anyone else that Soniel was a wise child who never did things impulsively.
She believed that Soniel would not carelessly make important decisions that had the potential to determine her entire life.
Jennifer spoke the question she had wanted to ask from the moment they first met.
Soniel... I heard the news. They said that you were getting engaged...
You heard it already... Yes, thats right. Thats whats happening.
Upon hearing her sisters confirmation, Jennifer closed her eyes.
Her head seemed to be spinning.
What kind of feeling is this? Am I feeling betrayed? Deprived of something? Calm down. Ive got to calm down. Soniel doesnt belong to me, and theres no reason why she should have this goddamn androphobia like me. This is rather a good thing. Its news that is worth celebrating. The most important thing is Soniels happiness. If she really wants this engagement from the bottom of her heart, then it is what it is.
Jennifer recalled the maids third report, which was considered less important than the summoning incident and Amers awakening.
2nd Princess Soniel is unofficially promoting her engagement with the summoned, Jeong Jihoo.
She had also said, She is rumoured to have very much pleased His Majesty the Emperor. Although the credibility of this news is somewhat low, there are rumours that the princess and the summoned have already had an affair.
The moment she heard that, she gritted her teeth and adopted a frosty gaze.
Has she already had a physical relationship between a man and a woman with him? Is that really the case? It cant be. Ah, please. The two of them are not yet officially engaged, let alone married, so it cant be.
The man in question is the summoned called Jeong Jihoo, right?
Yeah. Hes a very cool person! Hes awakened the mythical [Heaven] Attribute, and hes very zealous about self-improvement. Even though hes walking the path of magic, he keeps working out, and hes kind and always considers me. And also
-Wait! Maybe... I dont want to say this, but arent you forcing yourself to think like this? Is it Father who has forced you into this potion?
