45. Three years of time

[Episode 45] – Three years of time.

Time flew by like an arrow, and three years had already passed.

She said that the Queen Mother couldn’t see me except for herself, she played with the princess and ate me, and she threw me a job that she was an actor even though she gave herself. 3 Years ago she started learning the job from Bangshaw.

It was two years ago that the dark and timid princess’ personality gradually brightened and she started calling me ‘Mother’. And, it was a year ago that she started a fire in her kitchen saying that the princess would cook me a delicious meal.

And now…

“- In the afternoon, the Minister of Foreign Affairs requested an audience. What would you like?”

“How many times have I told you not to ask for an audience and come to the office on your own? Neither you nor the Minister of Foreign Affairs are listening to me.”

“Heh heh, I can’t find you on my own. Please don’t treat me the same as that person.”

“Not listening is the same for both. You can anticipate why he will come, so tell him to come when you have time. But, like last time, if you come right before work ends, tell the office that you will release the dog-“

“I’m a mother!!!”

Doo-doo-doo-

With the sound of the hallway kicking and the ground shaking, the princess’s booming voice came from behind. No matter how fast I ran, I had no time to turn my head before something heavy hit my back.

Boom!

“Sigh!”

Now, this feeling of heaviness is not heavy enough. Jump on my back and come to me! The embracing princess wrapped around my waist. Now that I’ve gotten stronger, I can even feel the pressure on my back.

I turned my head and looked down at the heaviness I felt in my lower back. The princess hugged my pelvis and looked up at me with a big smile. The impact was so strong that the princess’s forehead turned red.

“Titania… I told you not to run in the hallway. Dangerous.”

Black hair that now falls below the shoulders. The softly folded corners of his eyes were full of mischief, so it seemed like they would overflow. The princess’s face was full of laughter, wondering why she was so happy to hear nagging.

Where did that timidity from childhood hide…

As I stroked the princess’ hair, I smiled at the laughter that came out of me. Then the princess responded with a broad smile at my laughter.

“But, I saw my mother from afar!”

It meant that there was no particular reason for coming to me.

As I was tidying up the princess’ hair, which had become scattered from running, the princess raised her arms and looked at me. She picked up the habit of hugging me from a young age, and even now, at the age of ten, she wants to be held by me.

I put her hand between the armpits of the princess who had lifted her arms and lifted her up like a baby, and then I held her in my arms using my arms as a chair.

The princess in my arms embraced my neck with her arms as usual, looked at Bangsho, covered her mouth, and smiled. Who the hell taught you to laugh like that…

Bincho looked at the princess with me and nodded – greeted the princess and looked at the princess with a kind smile. The princess also waved her hand to Bangshaw, who was now old and became her grandfather.

“Princess, long time no see. How have you been with Her Highness the Queen?”

“Yes! How was the bang show?!”

“Heh heh, of course. Have a good day.”

Vinshaw, seeing the princess he has seen for the first time in two months, smiled heartily with the expression of her grandfather looking at her granddaughter. In the meantime, the princess, who had been looking closely at Bangsho’s head, shouted with a surprised expression on her face.

“You said you were doing well, why did you fall for more?!”

At the sudden personal attack from the princess, Vinshaw patted his head with a surprised expression. A topic that can’t be touched even if you try to touch it. I burst out laughing when I saw Bangsho fumbling through his hair.

It is said that children are honest, but it seems that they are really honest. I was sorry and couldn’t say anything, but the princess noticed the change in the bang show she saw in two months and said it honestly.

“Puhuh, that’s what you mean. Anyway, Vinchaud, you tell the foreign minister to come by any time. I have something to talk to the princess for a while.”

“Yes… I will.”

Leaving behind the sullen Bangsho, I hugged the princess and headed to my room. For these days, there were quite a few people who were harmed by such a frank and mischievous princess.

Not to mention Bang Chau, when the princess found out that the foreign minister was afraid of dogs, the princess immediately made a prank by hiding a puppy doll in the foreign minister’s office.

I still can’t forget the scream of the foreign minister who mistook a toy dog for a real dog. Should I say it screams like a little girl?

The Minister of Education, who heard the scream, copied the scream whenever he had a chance and made fun of the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

‘I would never have thought that a minister who was afraid of puppies would still be the minister of this country…! Screaming like a little girl…! Shame on you!’

‘Surely you guys went crazy because they wanted to close the academy!’

Well… It was the ‘Ainsel’ hanging around the princess’s neck that was the problem, telling her secrets and pranks. For these days, Ainsel spent more time with the princess than he did with me.

I glared at Ainsel, who was giggling in the princess’s hand, and the princess in my arms. Even if it wasn’t so, there was something to be scolded for, but he came looking for himself…

“Ainsel, you told Titania the location of the snacks hidden in my room again. How many times have I told you? Please don’t do that.”

At my words, the princess’s shoulders trembled. Ainsel also averted my gaze and began to make excuses while covering his face with her hands.

-Uh, it can’t be helped, right? Because you cut down on the princess’ snacks… It’s time for the princess to grow up quickly…? So, at least one…

“Why do you think I cut down on snacks? These days, the maids keep giving me snacks while saying that Titania is cute~ she’s cute~, so I haven’t reduced it. Titania? What do you think?”

“Yeah, but…”

“It’s just that, it’s just that, and if it’s not possible, it’s not possible. If you keep eating snacks without my knowledge, I’ll have to tell the chef not to make any more snacks. I will also punish the maids who give me treats.”

“Oh, Mom…! Don’t do that!”

Now the princess who calls me mother and hugs my neck tightly.

In the past, I listened to the princess a few times because I was lost in this cute charm, but now it seems that her habit has gone bad. I shook her head resolutely and turned her head away from the princess.

“It’s no use even if you call me mother. Eat snacks in moderation. If I keep eating snacks secretly, I might gain weight and turn into a pig. Then you can’t even hug me like this?”

When I tried to put the princess on the floor, the princess hugged me tightly and refused to go down. As I got into the position of hanging from my neck, I let out a sigh without realizing it.

“So, I will refrain from snacking from now on. I will really scold you if you touch the snack box in my room again this time. In particular, Ainsell. You are really mad I’m not kidding.”

-Mi, I’m sorry…

“Titania, what about you?”

“Okay… I’m sorry…”

I hugged my neck and held the dangling princess back in my arms, then started walking down the aisle again. The princess makes a sullen expression with her lips pouting, as if she is suffering from being restricted from snacking.

My heart was shaken when I saw the princess’s expression, but I couldn’t help it. It’s really a big deal if you do something wrong and your teeth rot. I had to be more careful because my milk teeth were falling out recently.

Looking at the princess again, she began to cry as if she would cry at any moment. Is it something to be so sad about with limited snacks? I sighed again and patted the princess on the back.

“…Haa, this is just this one time. I guess I should go and ask Ellie to get some snacks from the kitchen.”

“Ehehehe, I really like my mother the most!”

With those words, the princess who smiled and hugged my neck tightly. Seriously… Even if you’re determined, in front of the princess’ crying face, it will quickly collapse like a sandcastle in front of the waves.

I wonder if this is what parents think…

I enjoyed a very small tea time with the princess, and when I returned to the office, I met the foreign minister sitting on the sofa and eating snacks. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, who jumped up and swallowed the snack in his mouth, nodded.

“It’s been a while. Her Highness the Queen.”

“…So, was the foreign country you went on a business trip good for eating and playing?”

“Heh heh, it wasn’t very good. After all, home is the best.”

The Minister of Foreign Affairs once again raised his hand to treat snacks. Bansho, who doesn’t know when he entered the office, pats his hand! Let’s go, the Minister of Foreign Affairs dropped the snack he was holding in his hand on the desk.

“Have you got hair on your conscience? Those snacks are the snacks I prepared for the princess who often visits here. It’s not something you or the like prepared to eat.”

At that, the foreign minister smiled and pointed at Bangchow’s head.

“I have hair on my conscience, but you have no hair on your head.”

“You bastard…!”

“Stop, stop! What are you childishly doing!”

Is this really an argument between the ministers of this country? It was so childish that it was hard to see. I sat down in my chair, let out a small sigh, and motioned for the foreign minister to come closer.

“Really… Please stop making fun of the bang show. Even if it’s not, it’s just one hit by the princess and it’s on its way. Anyway… Your return means that all the envoys have also returned.”

“Keuhehehe, to the princess? Anyway… Yes, it is. All delegations that had been dispatched to neighboring countries completed their return as of yesterday. And…”

The Minister of Foreign Affairs handed me the documents he was holding. I took the document, opened it carefully, and began to read the documents written in it one by one. And, without realizing it, I frowned.

‘As expected… I can’t avoid the big story of the game.’

Now is the time when the princess’s spring ends and ‘summer’ begins. At the beginning of summer, there was a ‘sub-event’ as important as the ‘main event’.

This event was one of the crossroads towards the end.

I read the document once more and sighed again. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, whether he knew my feelings or not, calmly began to explain the documents he had prepared.

“As written in the documents, about three months after our delegation returns, the kingdom promised to send an ‘envoy’ to our country.”

“……Yes, thanks to this ‘person’ included in the delegation, I will have to make grand preparations.”

“Yes, no matter how ordinary it is, you can’t prepare. I don’t know if I’ll have to draw the country’s finances quite a bit. Well, when it comes to finances, Bang Shaw will take care of it.”

“…Yes.”

In the game, there is a ‘sub-event’ that is held first after summer begins. It is very important in the game, and if it is the most important in ‘Snow White’, an event where an important person comes to meet ‘The Princess’.

The foreign minister let out a small sigh, then shook his head and continued.

“…It will be a big event. Because it is a confrontation between the ‘third prince’ of a neighboring country and our princess. If all goes well, a prince from a neighboring country might become the princess’s ‘fiance’.”
