Sarah tilted her head and said, without changing her expression.

The Emperor's decision did not take long. That night, a letter containing the Emperor's secret intentions arrived at Duke Ambrosia's family, and Sarah and Ethan immediately ordered that their luggage be packed. Throughout the Empire, the situation of the Alton Estate became widely known, and the people of the Empire praised the Emperor for his success in negotiating with the magic tower.

"Rumors of atrocities happening at Alton Estate were true. That's why you don't know what's going to happen in the monster forest."

"Oh my God, a magician is coming to this Empire!"

"Did you mean that the magic tower really existed? I've only read it in books!"

"I'd like to go see it, so can we sneak in the Ambrosia procession?"

"Say something that makes sense! Didn't they say there are dozens of people dying in Alton Estate in a day?!"

"Still, the magician is with them...... When will I ever see a magician in my life? Right?"

People began to gather in the capital to see the magician who would appear in the procession of Ambrosia. Envoys sent by kingdoms and empires close to the Crombell Empire also gathered in the capital of Crombell from time to time. They also paced around Ambrosia's mansion to catch a chance to encounter the magician somehow.

"Heaven...... Now you have to leave tomorrow, but can you break through that crowd?"

May brushed Sarah's hair from behind, who sat by the window, and said in a voice of admiration. She knew the existence of a magician was really mysterious and the influence was great, but she forgot about it as she faced Sarah every day. That the existence of Sarah, the magician, could create such a big wind.

"The nobles will also gather in those crowds. The commoners would not be able to stand in front of them because they were afraid, and the nobles would not be able to block their way to save their faces, so it would be okay."

"It's a different scenery."

Sarah rested her chin on the window sill and looked out blankly. It was when May quietly started brushing Sarah's hair again, seeing how complicated her feelings were.

"Nannyyy......"

Claude's weeping voice came from outside Sarah's door, with a knock on the door.

"Claude-nim?"

Sarah got up from the chair and opened the door wide. Then she could see Claude rubbing his red, bloodshot eyes because he couldn't sleep at the best time to sleep, and Benjamin with a displeased face behind him.

"What's going on at this hour? Is there anything wrong?"
