Chapter 31 - Secret Conversation

I came out of my reverie upon hearing Alexandra's distinct voice. However, she wasn't alone. She was talking to someone else right at this moment. I recognized her voice, but the other person was unfamiliar. Given we were in the Emperor's castle, the chances of her talking to the Emperor himself were quite high. Their discussion seemed serious, with no playfulness in their tones.

I took a quick look around and decided to get closer. I wanted to hear their discussion—who knows, maybe I was the subject of their discussion?

If that were to be the case, then I wanted to hear every last thing coming out of their mouth, which is why I got as close as possible.

Hiding behind a wall a few meters away, I glanced at them subtly. I managed to confirm one thing: one of the voices was Alexandra's, but I still couldn't identify the other person. He was dressed in luxurious clothing, but that was common at the party. At least one thing was clear—he was rich and powerful.
