[Episode 45] – Three years.

Time flies by and three years have already passed.

The queen queen said she couldn’t watch me play and eat with the princess except for her, so she challenged me to learn at least the work she gave me. After that, I started learning from Bangchot three years ago.

Two years ago, the princess’ once dark and timid personality became brighter and she started calling me ‘mother’. And, it was a year ago that the princess set the kitchen on fire, saying she would cook me delicious food.

And now…

“-In the afternoon, the Minister of Foreign Affairs requested an audience. “What are you going to do?”

“How many times haven’t I told you to stop asking for an audience and come to the office on your own? “Both you and the Minister of Foreign Affairs are not listening to me at all.”

“Hehe, I don’t know how to find it on my own. “Please don’t treat me the same way as that person.”

“We both have the same problem of not listening. I can guess why he’s coming, so tell him to come when he has time. However, if you come to me right before work is over like last time, I will tell you that I will let the dog loose in the office-”

“It’s my mother!!!”

Doo doo doo doo-

The princess’s loud voice came from behind along with the sound of the ground shaking in the hallway. I ran so fast that before I had time to turn my head, something heavy hit my lower back.

bang!

“Woof!”

Now, this feeling of weight that feels not only heavy, but heavy. Jump on my back and rock me! The hugging princess wrapped her arms around my waist. Now that my strength had grown, I could even feel the pressure tightening around my waist.

When I turned my head and looked down at the feeling of heaviness at my waist, the princess who was hugging my pelvis looked up at me with a big smile. It hit so hard that the princess’s forehead turned bright red.

“Titania… I told you not to run in the hallway. “It’s dangerous.”

Black hair that now falls below her shoulders. The gently folded corners of his eyes were so full of mischief that it seemed as if they were overflowing. What was so good about hearing nagging, the princess’s face was filled with laughter.

Where did that timid girl hide when she was young?

I stroked the princess’s head and laughed at the laughter that came out without me knowing. Then the princess smiled brightly in response to my laughter.

“But, I saw my mother from afar!”

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

As I straightened the princess’s hair, which had become messy from running, she raised her arms and looked at me. I developed the habit of hugging her from a young age, so even now, at the age of ten, she still wants to be hugged by me.

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

The princess in my arms wrapped her arms around my neck in a familiar way, looked at Bangsho, covered her mouth, and smiled. Who on earth did you learn that laugh from?

Bangsho came out and looked at the princess and bowed, greeted her and looked at her with a friendly smile. The princess also waved to Bangchot, who is now old and has become a grandfather.

“Princess, it’s been a while. “Have you been getting along well with Her Majesty the Queen?”

“huh! “How have you been, Bang Show?!”

“Heh heh, of course. “Please take care of yourself.”

Bang Chau, seeing the princess for the first time in two months, smiled happily with the expression of a grandfather looking at his granddaughter. Meanwhile, the princess, who was looking at Vinchot’s head closely, shouted with a shocked expression.

“You said you were doing well, so why did you fall even further?!”

Vinchot looked surprised at the princess’s sudden personal attack and groped his head. A subject that cannot be touched even if one touches it. When I saw Bang Show stuttering his head, I burst out laughing.

The child was said to be honest, and it seemed like he was really honest. I was so sorry that I couldn’t say anything, but the princess, noticing the change in Bangsho for the first time in two months, spoke honestly.

“Puh-huh, that’s right. Anyway, Vinchot, please tell the Minister of Foreign Affairs to come visit him at any time. “I have something to talk with the princess for a moment.”

“Yes… I will.”

Leaving the sullen Bank show behind, I hugged the princess and headed to my room. Lately, there have been quite a few people who have been harmed by the princess who has become so honest and playful.

When the princess found out that the Minister of Foreign Affairs was afraid of dogs, not to mention Binchot, she immediately made a prank by hiding a stuffed dog in the Minister of Foreign Affairs’ office.

The screams of the Minister of Foreign Affairs who mistook a dog doll for a real dog were still unforgettable. Should I say it screams like a little girl?

The Minister of Education, who heard the screams, imitated the screams whenever he got the chance and made fun of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, which once led to a childish fight among the ministers.

‘Who would have thought that a minister who is afraid of dogs would still remain as the minister of this country…! Scream like a girl! Shame on you!’

‘You really went crazy because you wanted to close the Academy!’

Well… it was none other than the ‘Heinsel’ hanging around the princess’s neck that revealed various secrets and pranks. These days, Ainsel has been spending more time with the princess than with me.

I glared at Ainsel, who was giggling in the princess’ hands, and at the princess in my arms. Even if it wasn’t, there was something I needed to scold, but you came to find it on your own…

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

The princess’s shoulders trembled at my words. Ainsel also avoided my gaze, covered his face with both hands, and started making excuses.

-Uh, it can’t be helped, right? Since you’re cutting back on the princess’s snacks… she’s growing up now, right…? So, about one…

“Why do you think I cut back on snacks? These days, the maids keep giving me snacks without my knowledge, saying Titania is cute~ I’m not saying I’m cutting down on it. Titania? What do you think?”

“Yeah, but…”

“But it’s just that, it’s just that it can’t be done. If you keep snacking without me knowing, I’ll have to tell the chef not to make any more snacks. “I will also punish the maids who give me snacks.”

“Uh, mom…! “Don’t do that!”

The princess now calls me mommy and hugs my neck tightly.

In the past, I was overcome by this cute charm and listened to the princess a few times, but now it seemed like the habit had gotten worse. I shook my head resolutely and turned away from the princess.

“It’s no use calling me mom. From now on, eat snacks in moderation. If you keep eating snacks without me knowing, you might gain weight and turn into a pig. Then you won’t be able to hug me like this, right?”

When I tried to put the princess down on the floor, she was holding onto my neck tightly and was struggling to get down. When it came to a position where it was hanging around my neck, I sighed involuntarily.

“So, refrain from snacking from now on. This time, if you dare to touch the snack container in my room, I will really scold you. Especially, Ainsel. You are really scolded. “It’s no joke.”

-I’m sorry…

“Titania, what about you?”

“I understand… I’m sorry…”

I hugged the princess who was hanging around my neck, held her in my arms again, and started walking down the hallway again. The princess pouted her lips and made a sullen expression, as if she was distressed by being restricted from eating snacks.

My heart was shaken when I saw the princess’s expression like this, but I couldn’t help it. If you make a mistake and your teeth rot, it’s really a big problem. Lately, my baby teeth have been falling out, so I had to be more careful.

When I glanced at the princess again, she started crying as if she was going to cry at any moment. Is being restricted from eating snacks something to be that sad about? I sighed again and patted the princess on the back.

“…Ha, it’s just this one time. “I guess I should go and ask Ellie to get some snacks from the kitchen.”

“Ehehe, as expected, my mother is the best!”

With those words, the princess smiled brightly and hugged my neck. Really… Even if you make up your mind, in front of the princess’s crying expression, you quickly collapse like a sand castle in front of the waves.

Is this what parents think?

After enjoying a simple tea time with the princess, I returned to the office and made eye contact with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who was sitting on the sofa eating snacks. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, who jumped up and swallowed the snack in his mouth, bowed.

“long time no see. “Her Majesty the Queen.”

“…So, was the foreign country you visited on business a good place to eat and play?”

“Huh, it wasn’t that good. “After all, hometown is the best.”

The Minister of Foreign Affairs once again reached for snacks for entertainment. Bang Show, who doesn’t know when he entered the office, taps his hand! Now, the Minister of Foreign Affairs dropped the snack he was holding in his hand on the desk.

“Do you have a conscience? That snack is a snack I prepared for the princess who often comes here. “It’s not something I prepared for people like you to eat.”

At those words, the Minister of Foreign Affairs laughed and pointed to Vinchot’s head.

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

“You bastard…!”

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

Is this really a bickering among the ministers of this country? It was so childish that it was hard to watch. I sat down in my chair, sighed softly, and motioned for the Minister of Foreign Affairs to come closer.

“Really… please, stop making fun of Bank Show. Even if it’s not so, I’m just on my way after being hit by the princess. Anyway… your return means that the entire delegation has also returned.”

“Hehehe, you mean the princess? Anyway… yes, that’s right. As of yesterday, all delegations sent to neighboring countries have returned home. and…”

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

‘As expected… can’t we avoid the game’s big story?’

Currently, the princess’s spring ends and ‘summer’ begins. At the beginning of summer, there was a ‘sub-event’ that was just as important as the ‘main event’.

This event was one of the crossroads leading to the conclusion.

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

“As written in the document, your kingdom promised to send a ‘mission’ to our country about three months after our delegation returned.”

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

“Yes, no matter what, you can’t prepare normally. We may have to use up quite a bit of the country’s finances. Well, Bank Show will take care of the finances.”

“…okay.”

In the game, there is a ‘sub-event’ that is held first when summer begins. It is very important in the game, and the most important event in ‘Snow White’ is the event where an important character comes to meet the ‘princess’.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs sighed softly, shook his head, and continued.

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