“I will help you if I can, but it is impossible for me to interest Princess Mona. “He is someone who lacks nothing.”

Princess Mona seems to be a difficult opponent for Erintina.

You can see the embarrassed expression on his face as soon as her name is mentioned.

Since the reputation of the target is so high, the tension naturally makes my mouth dry.

“I’m not asking you to help me. “I can sufficiently arouse interest with what I have prepared.”

I deliberately looked more confident because I didn’t want to lose.

Then Erintina said oh? He said.

“The princess’s interest… . “Do you have any imperial relics?”

I think he just said it as a joke, but he saw right through my confidence.

“answer.”

“really?”

Erintina showed interest as she leisurely put the coffee cup that was reaching her lips back on the table.

“It’s something that Princess Mona can’t help but be interested in.”

“Tell me in detail. “I’m dying of curiosity.”

Isn’t Princess Mona a fan of imperial history?

I was confident that she would be fascinated by the music box containing the original image of the old imperial palace that the first emperor had gifted to his granddaughter.

“Shall I show you?”

“huh.”

I thought that Erintina might be able to package the bribe to Princess Mona in a rather believable way.

“Is this it?”

“huh. “It’s a music box that the first emperor gave to his granddaughter.”

“Is this really the imperial palace?”

“huh.”

The dense buildings spread out inside the music box.

Even at first glance, the hand holding the music box was very careful, as if it felt like it wasn’t made roughly.

“If this is, as you said, a gift from the first emperor to his granddaughter, then it must be worth a lot of money. And even if this is not the first emperor’s granddaughter’s item, its value will definitely not be low. “It must be an item made by a great craftsman who expressed every single detail without missing a single detail.”

The more I looked, the more I could see how much care had been put into each expression, and Erintina did not miss that part.

“How did you know that this item was a gift from the first emperor to his granddaughter? There has to be evidence. “Then even Princess Mona will believe it.”

“No, no need.”

“huh?”

“If you show it to Princess Mona, she will find it and bring it to the museum.”

Princess Mona, a history buff, will enjoy the process of finding evidence to confirm that this item was truly made by the first emperor for his granddaughter.

And finally, you will feel proud when you confirm that it is the real thing and proudly display it in a museum.

“There is no need to deprive Princess Mona of something she would like to do.”

“Dozens of fraudsters a year bring items to Princess Mona as relics. And they try to sell it for a lot of money.”

Among those scammers, I wonder if my product can attract Princess Mona’s interest.

“That’s why we need evidence.”

“There is a difference between those scammers and me.”

In order to defraud Princess Mona, they took a flimsy fake.

“I’m not trying to scam people, but I’m trying to build connections through this product.”

It’s not Princess Mona who wouldn’t notice that.

“Then, is there one thing you want from me?”

“okay. “It’s about making time for me to meet Princess Mona.”

“good. I’ll try it. “If you are Princess Mona, you probably don’t know why we are approaching you.”

You probably know who developed the purification solution and what business that person operates.

“Don’t approach it too low-key.”

“huh?”

Of course, it is true that my situation is urgent.

But to Princess Mona, I am a piece of cake that came rolling in.

I’m drooling everywhere else.

“If Princess Mona saw the benefit, she would see it. It’s not a relationship where she would lose.”

“yes. Even Princess Mona probably knows how appetizing you are, right?”

“So, don’t be too low-key. “There is no need to take action and diminish your self-worth.”

“I knew what you were talking about. “I will do as you say, but can you handle it?”

“Is it possible.”

Anything is possible.

… I thought it was possible.

* * *

Princess Mona is an awakened person with a special ability called Dragon Eye.

Because he was born a noble being, his personality and daily behavior were full of dignity.

A person who takes it for granted to rule over someone.

The production team gave a person who already had a lot of money the deceptive abilities of Yongan and Eonlyeong.

‘The dondog has risen properly.’

You guys have to pick Princess Mona to continue playing the game? It was no different from forcing it.

What kind of woman is she who has it all?

When you think of her, the first thing that comes to mind is that she is a woman who is sincere about her hobbies.

“Hello, Princess Mona.”

What she called me was the museum.

Of course, I was called here late at night after the museum’s operating hours were over.

When I entered the museum, Princess Mona was standing with her back to me.

‘It’s still gorgeous.’

Costly jewels and clothes made of precious silk were decorating Princess Mona gorgeously even today.

She seemed to be checking to see if the artifacts on display at the museum were in good condition.

I deliberately walked closer and said hello.

“So, you said you wanted to meet me?”

Princess Mona spoke without taking her eyes off the relic.

People like us just look at it once and then stop, but Princess Mona was the one who was involved in the display of the relics from start to finish.

However, as he looked at the relic, he did not look bored or tired.

I remember when I was given a tour of the museum by her, she looked at the artifacts with those eyes and eagerly introduced them to me.

“Yes, princess.”

“Originally I would have refused, but he became interested because he wanted to meet me at a military-paying company rather than another company. “I was wondering what on earth you were looking for me for.”

Princess Mona’s source of information would have told them who the owner of the business was and what had caused the palace to be in trouble this time.

Despite this, she was naturally acting flirtatious.

“As you may have guessed, I came here because I wanted to build a good relationship with the princess.”

“It’s a good relationship… “You talk about trivial things as always.”

Princess Mona was still not looking at my face.

He seemed to think it would be better to look at the artifacts at that time.

“I also didn’t want to talk about trivial things like this. However, if I stayed still, it seemed like the 1st prince would have his left arm ripped off, the 3rd prince would have his right arm ripped off, and some princesses would have their legs ripped off. Shouldn’t you do something before you die with your limbs torn off? That’s why I came to find someone who could protect my body completely.”

Even though he was insulting the royal family in front of the royal family, he said it without hesitation.

It was because he knew that Princess Mona was not the kind of person who would get angry over something like this.

“Oh my, my brothers and sisters are trying to eat your blood and flesh? wherefore?”

In fact, instead of getting angry after hearing what I said, Princess Mona simply pretended not to notice.

“Suddenly, a plump pig appears, so it’s not strange to think about how to cook it and eat it. But wouldn’t it be inevitable for the pig to feel unfair? “You can’t sit still and get eaten, so you want to choose who gets eaten.”

“Is that choice supposed to be me?”

“Because pigs are quite intelligent. Even if you are eaten, shouldn’t you be eaten by the right person so that your merits can be recognized even when you are reincarnated after death?”

Were you interested in what I had to say?

Finally, Princess Mona took her eyes off the relic and turned her head.

Only now was I finally able to receive her attention.

‘I didn’t know that just making eye contact would be this difficult.’

Looking at her attitude, I thought that many nobles before me had been treated as less than relics and disappeared after a brief conversation.

From Princess Mona’s perspective, it must have been a know-how that allowed her to deal with those nasty bugs without getting tired.

“hmm? “You look familiar.”

Princess Mona looks at me and tilts her head.

“When I happened to visit the museum, the princess herself gave me guidance.”

Surprisingly, he still seemed to remember my face.

“Ah, yes! I remember. He was a nobleman who was very interested in imperial history. “It was so special that I remembered his face.”

“It’s an honor, princess.”

“Hmm, follow me.”

Princess Mona thought for a moment and then took me to another place.

I felt better because I felt like I had been confirmed that at least talking with me was more valuable than looking at the relics.

“Are you the alchemist who developed the purifying liquid? “I heard you recently visited the imperial palace.”

I didn’t know that the news was already out there.

As expected, Princess Mona was aware of the entire situation, but pretended not to know in front of me.

“yes. you’re right.”

“It’s a purifying liquid… It was an invention that would be of great help to mankind. “Personally, after hearing that, I really wanted to praise you.”

“It is an honor to be praised by the princess. But why didn’t you do it? “If you had called me, I would have run at any time.”

The distance was close, so I could go there right away.

“I think there are many people who would praise you other than me.”

It was a very sad story to me.

I wasn’t interested in other people’s praise.

“The praise the princess gave me was probably the most meaningful.”

“Huh~ You’re unusually good at saying provocative things.”

“Wouldn’t it be better for me to receive praise from other royal family members and offer it to the princess rather than cutting up my flesh? “Isn’t it possible that my flesh could attack the princess?”

Even though Princess Mona was the smartest person among the royal family, her succession ranking was bound to be low.

On the other hand, the 1st prince had by far the highest succession rank, and since he did not have a bad relationship with the emperor, he would have easily won the position of successor if not for Princess Mona.

If my wealth were added to the 1st prince, even Princess Mona would inevitably be in trouble.

‘Don’t bounce too much, just accept it.’

I didn’t like the idea of going too low, so I gave up.

In the end, isn’t Princess Mona acting like an asshole when she has no choice but to accept me?

But did I think wrong?

Princess Mona said something that left me speechless.

“If you want to be liked by me, you’d better not make such provocations. “I have a bad temper, so I have to scold bad dogs to get rid of my temper.”

“… … .”

“Isn’t that why you came to me because you knew that if you poured money into it, it would end up being used for luxury?”

There was no rebuttal to Princess Mona’s sharp words.
