I’m the Main Character’s Child

that much.

Unlike her, who was bewildered, Deska said that her guess was correct, she muttered a little.

“If you are a sincere teacher, I think you can immediately find out your disciple’s brilliance and talent.”

Deska laughed and dragged a chair nearby.

“From now on, I will tell the princess what she is curious about.
Do you have any more questions?”

Deska was quick to see through the gist of the question she was curious about.

“…Yes, please tell me.”

She took off her six-year-old’s mask and answered honestly.

At her words, Deska brought out a story with a gleam in her eyes like never before.

“It’s been eight years since the Second Crown Prince took the throne.
In the meantime, the Dandelkius Empire has been walking on a path of unprecedented destruction.”

Deska’s remarks were, in fact, a great insult to the imperial family.

‘You’re very frank.’

Deska was telling how messed up the Empire is now.

“Taxes rise every year and the lives of my people become increasingly impoverished, and the treasury filled with taxes is often wasted in the wrong place.
The current emperor is a tax thief with little to no ability.”

As she listened to the stinging criticism, she could tell just how messed up the empire was right now.

“Now the Dandelkius Empire is…… It is safe to say that Duke Bardion is maintaining it.”

“Papa?”

Her head fluttered at the unexpected name.

“Yes.
The ballroom issue in the north is also a major disaster that the emperor must personally lead.
But the one sitting on the throne right now doesn’t do anything right… *Coughs*.”

Looking at Deska, who became more emotional, she could guess how angry she was.

“Hmm, the one who took the lead in all matters at that time was Duke Bardion.
Now, it must be said that the duke maintains the entire administrative system of the Empire.”

“That’s why the emperor can’t do anything with Papa?”

Adults are the mirror of children.

“Yes, but not only for that reason.
How many ordinary knights do you think you need to confront the duke, who is a magic swordsman?”

Considering his ability as a magic swordsman, she tried to calculate as generously as possible.

“A thousand!”

Her thoughts of being too generous was overshadowed by Deska’s continuing answer, which was enough to amaze her.

“It is tens of thousands.”

“What?”

“These words mean that one Duke plays the role of tens of thousands of knights.
To be honest, it is not difficult for the duke to change the Empire of Dandelkius into the Bardion Empire if he wants to.”

“Ten Thousand….
“

She was stunned by the unthinkable number.

“The emperor knows that, too.” For those who have no ability but want to maintain their position, the Duke of Bardion is bound to be their savior and an object of fear”

“But if Papa’s position rises that much, wouldn’t the emperor definitely hate it?”

Even if the emperor had no head, if he knew that his position was being threatened, he wouldn’t leave him alone.

“Actually, the duke has once resigned from all his duties.
It was already six years ago.”

“Ah….”

She immediately figured out why.

Six years ago, this is the year I was born and the year that Raina died.

The emperor thought this was the opportunity, so he established a noble family friendly to him in place of the duke and changed the job system extensively.”

Deska let out the rest of her words with a sigh.

“The duke was the only one not there, but the empire was paralyzed.
The people who deal with things and the people who do things are different.
I hope the empire will return to its normal state.” 

The emperor, who had spent a year without Cardin, finally made a humble wish and asked Cardin to return.

However, it is said that Cardin lightly ignored the emperor’s orders and continued his life in seclusion.

A year passed after that, and around the time when the desperate screams of the people of the Empire pierced the sky, Cardin ended his seclusion and returned to the Imperial Palace.

“As you might expect, it was an opportunity to further elevate the duke’s ability and status.
Really… … The next emperor should be the right person.”

“Neinster doesn’t look like the right….” 

The smile on his face as he brutally crushed the crawling ants with tree branches flashed in her mind.

“Still, the public’s evaluation of the second prince is very good.”

“I see.
That little brat.
By the way, is Neinster the second prince?”

“Yes, he has a half-brother, the first prince.” 

It was something she didn’t know at all. 

“What about the first prince?”

“Um, it’s hard to say.”

After hearing the story of the first prince from Deska, she felt even more disgust for the emperor. 

The first prince was one year older than Neinster.

Before the emperor married Mogris, the first prince, was born from a young lady of a common noble family. 

The mother of the first prince, was the daughter of a Baron, living at the border region died after three years without receiving any position at the Imperial Palace.

The first prince never made his official appearance as the 1st Prince.

‘No, you have to take responsibility for what you have done.
Is that all you can do?’

She trembled at the shameful record of the emperor.

“Ah, maybe we’ll see him at His Majesty’s birthday party in two months.”

Nodding her head, she organized the new facts she learned today in her head.

What she knew from reading the books in her previous life was just the tip of the iceberg.

knock, knock

“Princess.
I’m sorry for disturbing your class.
The duke is looking for you urgently.”

The servant who opened the door carefully came in and delivered the news of Cardin.
