Ursilla walked through the garden in the Moon Palace. Round eyes with hot pink colored eyes move here and there, observing the beauty of the garden that is presented. Various kinds of flowers adorn along the way Ursilla walked.
There was a golden shower in the shape of a woman with long hair wearing a long dress and looking luxurious. The female statue's hand carries a teapot with intricate carvings, but looks beautiful. The teapot is in a position as if to pour tea. The shower water comes out of the teapot and under it there is a pool that holds the shower water.
Beautiful.
Everything in Moon Palace was beautiful and luxurious. This shows that the palace is indeed the residence of the King. However, the palace of the crown prince and the royal princess is no less beautiful. It's just that there are some restrictions on luxury in the palace of the crown prince and royal princess.
After being satisfied for a walk in the garden, Ursilla turned towards a greenhouse in the center of the garden. The greenhouse is even very grand in the Moon Palace. Various rare plants are found in the greenhouse. This place is often used for meetings or just relaxing, enjoying the beauty of the garden behind the transparent glass.
"Huft..." Ursilla was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief at having managed to get away from the dining room in the Moon Palace.
Ursilla's lips pursed, her tiny hand touched her puffy eyelids. Previously, while in the dining room with Victor and Elias, Ursilla cried loudly because she couldn't control her emotions.
Ursilla, no, Liera occupied Ursilla's small body. Children aged 6 years are certainly very honest in expressing their feelings without being able to hide them from adults. So, it's no wonder that 16-year-old Liera's feelings combined with 6-year-old Ursilla are certainly not easy to control because they are not used to the new body she occupies.
"Princess,... are you all right?" The butler named Wendy, a woman who was around 25 years old, looked worriedly at Ursilla who had been showing a listless face.
Over and over again Wendy heard Ursilla who had been holding her breath since leaving the dining room. The woman, who had passed the party of her maturity, felt that there was something strange about the princess she served.
Unlike the case with Wendy, who is worried about Ursilla's strangeness, Emma actually doesn't seem to care at all what happens to the princess she serves. Emma's gaze was flat, there was a hint of arrogance in her gaze.
If Ursilla was still in Liera's body, maybe Ursilla would be afraid of Emma and feel intimidated by Emma's gaze. Well, after all, children will be afraid if they are stared at without expression even though they haven't done anything wrong. Indeed, Emma is one of the reasons why Ursilla becomes a closed person after the incident in the garden that happened to Ursilla in the novel Love to Ursilla.
"I'm fine, Wendy. I'm just tired from walking in the park." Ursilla suddenly smiled brightly until her eyes narrowed.
Her little brain was thinking about what steps she had to take to survive in the world of the novel she had created. Ursilla rested her chin, her hot pink eyes surveyed the plants one by one in the greenhouse.
"The enemy's accomplice is nearby. What should I do with her? Fire her? That's not a good idea!" Ursilla shook her head, rejecting the rash thoughts that were in her mind.
If Ursilla fires Emma, how will she know the movements of the main antagonist in Love to Ursilla? Emma is the second person who can connect Ursilla to her real enemy besides Morgan, the Male Lead in the novel, Love to Ursilla.
"Please accept my greetings Morgan Winter Knight, Princess Ursilla dà Victoria."
Ursilla blinked her tiny eyes a few times. Even as she thought about Morgan, subconsciously hallucinating that Morgan was here? Ursilla also heard Morgan's full name. Hah, she might have gone crazy from being too fixated on a novel whose main conflict is still long.
"Liera, are you really stressed about Psycho Male Lead's behavior that readers always criticize? Tch, I even heard the voice of a boy who introduced himself as Morgan." Ursilla snorted, tiny and slender fingers brushed her temples, which felt throbbing.
"Princess, Grand Duke Winter Knight greets you." Wendy's whisper sounded in Ursilla's ear.
The previously closed eyelids were now wide open. Ursilla turned to the side and found a boy standing with a bow with his right hand placed on his left chest.
The boy lifted his head when he felt the person he was saluting had noticed his presence. The boy carved a big smile that added a handsome impression on his face that seemed to have no room for insults.
"Nice to meet you, Princess Silla."
"So this isn't a hallucination?!"
Ursilla's face exploded with embarrassment that she couldn't hide. Ursilla cleared her throat softly to dispel the shame that burned her face.
Ursilla got up from the chair, her hands lifted her dress and bowed slightly. "Nice to meet you, Grand Duke Winter Knight."
{ Morgan Winter Knight, the youngest Grand Duke in history because he got the title at the very young age of 12 years. The previous Grand Duke, Morgan's father, had died along with the Grand Duchess, Morgan's mother while the two people were on their way back to Winter Knight after making a pact with another realm. Morgan's parents died because they were killed by a hitman who until now still has not been found who was behind the incident. }
{ The investigation is still ongoing, although the results are deadlocked. However, the deaths of the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess simultaneously left the position in the Winter Knight vacant. So, Morgan, the son of the previous Grand Duke, was finally sworn in as the new Grand Duke. He is probably 12 years old, and many people underestimate his abilities. However, Morgan was such a smart man that he could control the Winter Knight in just a few months. His achievements made all parties who initially protested finally silenced themselves. }
"The journey of his life sounds sad and full of struggle. But, no one knows what's going on in his devious brain." Ursilla observed Morgan's appearance, who was now sitting in front of her.
There was a table in the middle separating Ursilla and Morgan. Ursilla ate the snack the maid had brought. Ursilla blatantly observed every move that was made by Morgan.
Morgan, who was holding the teacup, drank the tea little by little. At that moment, Morgan returned Ursilla's gaze, causing Ursilla to choke on receiving such a sudden stare.
"Princess! Drink it first!" Wendy held out a glass of Ursilla's favorite warm milk. Wendy's hand patted Ursilla's back to relieve Ursilla's coughing.
Ursilla put the glass down on the table after the snack stuck in her throat had been digested. "Ugh, his presence has even had a bad impact on me. Then, what will happen in the future if I get engaged to him?!"
"Princess, are you okay?! I'm sorry for the impudence of me staring at the Princess all of a sudden so that it startled the Princess!" Morgan immediately knelt beside Ursilla guiltily.
Ursilla screamed in her heart. "Bastard!! What are you asking?! Didn't you see I wasn't fine before because of choking?! Your sudden gaze almost killed me! Tch, how ridiculous would I be if I choked to death from a Grand Duke's gaze!"
If Ursilla really died from choking, the newspapers would probably publish the title 'Princess Silla died from being enchanted by the handsome Grand Duke's gaze!'
Tch, even if Ursilla died silly, Morgan wouldn't give Ursilla a chance to die with honor.
"Handsome is not enough if his personality is really rotten!"
"It's not the Grand Duke's fault. I'm the one being disrespectful for staring at you so openly." Ursilla carved a sweet smile even though in her heart a demo was going on because she wanted to immediately hit the handsome face in front of her which was made as sad as possible.
"Cheating! Is good looks a man's weapon to melt a woman's heart?!"
The charm of a handsome Morgan cannot be ignored. Moreover, Liera is a person who likes handsome men and washes her eyes with the faces of artists who have charming looks.
While Liera was busy holding back her feelings of admiring Morgan's good looks, and preventing her from falling into the same abyss as Ursilla, Morgan, who was kneeling, stared at Ursilla's smile which added to her beauty.
No one noticed Morgan's ears, which were faintly red the more he studied Ursilla's face. Morgan averted his gaze when he felt his heart skip a beat. "Ugh, what's wrong with me?"
Morgan squeezed his left chest, which was beating uncharacteristically fast. "Tsk, did this woman cast evil magic on me? As expected, she is a dangerous woman for me, as Auntie said."
Morgan stood up, taking a deep breath to calm his pounding heart that never returned to normal. Morgan's brows furrowed slightly with anxiety plastered on his face.
Ursilla turned her attention back to Morgan. "What is it, Grand Duke? Looks like something is bothering you?"
Morgan shook his head. "I'm all right, Princess. Thank you for your concern. I just feel bad to resign because I am reminded of unfinished work."
Ursilla suddenly remembered the contents of the novel. Morgan's presence at the Moon Palace must have something to do with the inauguration of the title of Grand Duke, which must be acknowledged by Victor, King of the Kingdom of Victoria.
"There's no need to feel embarrassed, Duke. I understand that you are busy with your work because of the degree you got. You can resign if there is still unfinished work."
"Thank you for your generosity, Princess. Morgan Winter Knight, please step down."
"Please, Grand Duke."
Morgan turned and walked briskly. He had to get away from Ursilla who had bewitched him. It was dangerous if Morgan was in the same place as Ursilla for a long time.
Well, that's what Morgan had in mind. Little did Morgan know that the feelings he had for Ursilla weren't the evil magic he thought. It's called fascinated.
