A MEANINGFUL PRESENT

BLERGH.

Melvin almost threw up as soon as Princess(?) Neoma put the crown on top of Prince Calyx's head.

[What a puke-inducing scene.]

His stomach was in knots because he could tell Princess Neoma's intention by giving the silver crown to Prince Calyx. Of course, it was just his speculation.

However…

'Don't even dream about being the next emperor.'

That seemed to be Princess Neoma's message to Prince Calyx.

[I knew I'd regret becoming Prince Nero's secretary.]

Everyone who studied the History of the Great Moonasterion Empire would recognize the missing silver crown of the first emperor.

But not everyone knew the story behind it.

Only the Crown Prince was educated about the silver crown's origin.

Well, supposed to be.

[There's a book that only the future emperors are supposed to read. But Prince Nero made me read the entire book as punishment the first time I handed in my resignation letter.]
