Crown Prince’s Ex-Boyfriend

I was such a fool. How did I not know!

Come to think of it, there were so many strange things.

Moreover, when my life was at stake, she managed to carry such an important note, but then dropped it!

Only someone as careless as my sister could do something like this.

“Baek Mi-na, you idiot. Where are you now!”

I wanted to rush over and grab her collar, but I couldn’t do that yet, instead I quickly skimmed through the pages of the notebook.

When I let go of the pen that was securely fastened so it couldn’t move, the letters came into view.

[Anyway, I’m done talking about myself, so go ahead.]

[Yes, we’ll find the old fox.]

[What are you talking about, Sith? Why… How are you planning to find Mona White?]

[I know. It’s difficult unless Mona White shows up on her own.]

[That will never happen! You know that, right? Never!]

[You both are so loud. Didn’t you hear me? I would have told you to go now.]

[Oh, right. I’ll hurry and disappear.]

[Go to sleep, Your Highness.]

[Hang on. I have one last question.]

[What is it?]

[Yes, Your Highness?]

[…Does I smell?]

What is the prince up to?

I can’t believe you still care about it.

[Can I be honest?]

[Speak, Lady Isdon.]

[You do smell a bit! I’ll go now!]

[…….]

[…Your Highness, she must be joking to tease you like this. Don’t worry too much.]

[What’s the point of teasing me?]

[…….I ]

After that, the quill pen remained still for a long time. Both seemed unable to speak due to the awkward atmosphere.

Then Sith spoke up again, saying she would go, and soon the pen resumed writing rapidly..

It seemed that she met Rapel again.

[Haha! Did you hear that? He asked if we smelled him. Was it harsh remarks from the Deputy Head?]

[I suppose so. What else can we do? Your Highness is searching for you, Mona White.]

[What should I do?. I’ll just say I didn’t find her until the end].

It was Vin who identified Rapel Isdon in the original.

However, now that the relationship between the two has fallen, there was no room for Vin to intervene in the meeting of these close aides.

Therefore, it should be considered impossible to find Mona White unless the Crown Prince does it himself.

I don’t know if I should be relieved or not.

If the Crown Prince can’t find the treasure, he can’t kill me, but Brilliante on the Emperor’s neck cannot be destroyed either.

As long as the Emperor is alive, he will try to kill the Crown Prince until he dies. Can the Crown Prince avoid it for the rest of his life?

It’s practically impossible.

So is it really right for Irillin Heather, who should have died originally, to live, and the c77rown prince to die instead?

Wouldn’t it be too selfish to let others die just to live.

My heart sank.

“Why are you sitting there like that?”

Sith came into the accommodation shortly after…… My sister looked at me and asked.

I sat up in my sister’s bed.

Then I grabbed her by the collar.

“Where the hell have you been all this time, Baek Mi-na!”

About three years before I entered <The Crown Prince’s Lover> my sister had gone missing.

It had been seven years since then, and it had been ten years since I last saw my sister.

I tried to deny the possibility of her vague death or cling to the unfounded hope of meeting my sister again. It had been ten years.

Baek Mi-na. I uttered those three syllables for the first time in ten years.

Tears burst forth like a dam breaking, and I cried sorrowfully.

“Wuu- Uhuhuhuhuhu…….”

And so did my sister.

Tears streamed down Sith Heather’s face, which always appeared indifferent.

“Why did you make such a foolish contract! Where did you go when you disappeared?”

“…….”

“Why can’t you answer, Baek Mi-na!”

“I can’t tell you anything, or ask you anything…….”

I could sense what my sister wanted to say from her trembling eyes and voice.

There were countless things she wanted to tell me and ask me.

But she was choking up and couldn’t speak.

“Ugh – Baek Mina, you idiot…….”

I even had a runny nose and buried my face in my sister’s chest.

Please pat me on the back like that…… Ah it’s a dead end.

“……You have a runny nose. Would you please stay away from me?”

She gently pushed me away with a disgusted expression.

…Yes, no matter how long she had been dead or alive for ten years, sisters were still sisters.

Realizing that, tears welled up in my eyes.

But I still couldn’t believe it.

Why was my sister, who had definitely disappeared, standing in front of me… I didn’t know if she was the same person as the one in the novel she wrote.

I couldn’t ask her about the contract. Damn it.

The more I think about it, the more I’m speechless. How dare that damn doppelganger1 try to steal someone’s sister?

“Sister.”

“…….”

“Oh, you’re still as shameless as ever! Excuse me, Mr. Sith Heather!”

“Yes.”

“……Please tie my hair.”

“All of a sudden?”

“What do you mean all of a sudden? You used to do it for me. Now, do it quickly!”

I turned around and pushed my sister’s head from behind.

My sister, who sighed as if she was dumbfounded, soon sat behind me and made a clattering noise.

When I slightly turned my head to see what it was, to my surprise, there were various hair tools such as combs and hairpins.

“Have you been growing your hair? Why are these things in Sith Heather’s room?”

“No, I haven’t grown it. It’s just… I came here and bought them.”

I hadn’t tied my hair properly since I became a high school student. That was because my sister used to tie my hair every morning without fail.

After that, there were three years when my sister went missing and seven years as Irilyn Heather.

It had been a long time since I had tied my hair properly by myself. I still thought I was the same as before, so I tried to tie her hair.(?)

You think I’m still a kid. I choked up, unable to speak.

“What style do you want me to do? Ponytail? Half-up? Braids?”

“Do it in my favorite style.”

“…….”

There was a moment of silence, but it only lasted for a moment. Soon, my sister’s hands started moving busily.

She said she hadn’t grown her hair since becoming Sith Heather, but her skills were still amazing. She was even better than me, who had tied my own hair until recently.

“It’s done.”

My sister handed me a mirror from behind.

Even though it was a face I had seen for seven years, seeing it in the mirror felt strange.

Perhaps it was because my blue hair was half-up, unlike my original hair that had been damaged by frequent dyeing.

However, despite many changes, there was still a happy smile that floated on my sister’s face.

So it was good.

“Oh, I want to eat ramen!”

“Is that how you feel about your hair?”

“Do you want me to compliment you?”

“No, don’t bother, if I hear it from you, I might throw up.”

“See? I still want to eat ramen!”

“But there’s no ramen here.”

There’s no such thing here?

The strange meaning of the word makes me smile.

Looking at my sister, who smiled ever so slightly, I thought to myself.

‘You damn doppelganger. You’re dead in my hands now.’

“This is Rapel Isdon, the head of the Imperial Knights. I’ve been transporting Serom’s prisoners, so I’m finally greeting you. I’m with you in today’s training, so please take care of me.”

As soon as I got to work, I saw the damn doppelganger.

I wanted to jump out right away, grab her by the collar, and shout, “Know your place, you doppelganger!”

But the doppelganger, Rapel Isdon was my boss.

If I did such a thing, I would not only be removed from the Knights but also imprisoned again.

So, for now, I had to suppress my anger and put it aside.

“By the way, where is our Deputy Head, and why is Your Highness here?”

Rapel asked with a smile. The Crown Prince answered promptly.

“I put him on probation. Instead, I filled the position myself.”

“I don’t think that’s even a word… Well, Your Highness, let’s go over there for a moment and talk.”

In a moment, the urge to grab him by the collar faded as I saw her grim, hardened expression.

…Do I look this frightening when I’m angry?

“…How dare you… Cancel my men… .”

Some words were heard from afar.

The lengthy quarrel between the two seemed to come to an end with Raffel’s words.

“Your Majesty… I’ll tell you.”

So the Crown Prince finally gritted his teeth and walked out.

“Long time no see.”

Our Deputy Head is back again.

Unfortunately, no one liked the return of the Deputy Head

“Well, let’s start the training right away. We’ll begin with a light warm-up of twenty laps. Begin.”

For the new knights, whether it be the Crown Prince or Vin, it was quite a terrible thing.

With the National Foundation Festival approaching, the intensity of training had significantly increased in recent days.

The task assigned to new knights was to organize the order of the citizens outside the palace.

The reason why everyone is passionate about training despite this boring mission is to get a chance to stand guard at the banquet hall, which is provided only to the three best new knights.

Instead of a crowded place where even senior knights struggled to stand out, the banquet hall was filled with influential families, senior knights, and potential future partners.

It is a place where many opportunities lie.

Wasn’t everyone aiming for that?

And I was sure this opportunity would come to me.

Even without competing, it was clear that I was the best among them.

(just in case y’all are confused she’s talking about Rapel)
