When I woke up, it was still late at night. Liko slowly sat up.

He looks over and sees his son Idea sleeping on his back. His sleeping face is so happy that Rico feels his heart is soothed by seeing it.

There is still time before dawn. It looks like he will be able to get another good night's sleep. She covers Idea with a blanket and lies down again. At that moment, Idea, who has been sleeping next to her, rolls over and comes to Riko's side. He squeezed the hem of her pajamas and murmured in a small voice.

Such a thought crosses his mind. No, it is not true. A child grows stronger when its mother is gone. I am sure that this child will live strong even if I am gone. My other self is telling me in my heart.

Liko strokes Idea's head and smiles. She had always thought that parents were too busy to take care of their children, but now that she has given birth and raised a child, she understands the love her late parents had for her. Even though they did not have much contact with each other due to their heavy responsibilities as the emperor and empress, they still gave them books, clothes, and capable retainers. I did not understand such love when I was a child, but now, looking back, it is painfully obvious that all these things were the result of my parents' deep love for me.

Rico gently caresses the child's cheek, looking at Idea's happy sleeping face. The subtle warmth of her son's cheek soothes her heart. Her husband is kind and her children are growing up well. She has no complaints about her current environment. In this way, her childhood visions of a future tormented by loneliness have all come to pass, and she is leading a life that she never intended. She could not help but feel the wonder of her life.

On the other hand, she wonders if it is right to let her son be so spoiled by his mother. This child would be the future king of Agartha. He must have many retainers. Shouldn't he be given a gifted education now? Shouldn't he be placed in the care of the best and brought up by the best? .......

Liko's mind recalls the words of her husband, Linos. When she first heard these words, she could not believe them at all. It was the complete opposite of the education and way of thinking that Liko had received.

Basically, a child born into a noble family is immediately sent to a nanny to live away from his parents. This was the norm in the Hereditary Empire, and Liko was also educated in this way.

However, when one thinks about it in a calm way, the older brother who was raised away from his parents was weak-minded from an early age and often looked at others around him. On the other hand, his younger brother, Vyrus, was raised by his biological mother because he was not supposed to inherit the throne. From an early age, he was intelligent and clever, and had a good sense of the moods of those around him. The difference between the two brothers may not be attributed solely to their upbringing. However, Rico could not help but agree with her husband's words when he reminded her of her brother and sister.

I always think that men are mysterious creatures. No matter how sad or depressed they are, they quickly recover when they are hugged by their mothers. It is more effective than any words of comfort or attitude. On the other hand, Eryl, the eldest daughter, will not recover unless the cause of her depression is identified and a clear solution is given to her. Her husband, Linos, does not seem to understand this. Whenever Eryl is depressed, he just wanders around with a worried look on his face.

Perhaps it is because Eryl and Rinos are both women, but Eryl knows what her daughter is thinking, even if they do not exchange words. She does not talk to herself much because she knows that if there is something she does not understand, she will ask herself, her mother, at the end of the day.

I think she understands her mother's intention very well. In the future, she will be the Empress of the Heedata Empire. She needs to learn many things now. She knows this very well, which is why she often asks questions to May, Sidhi and others. She misses Matkal a lot, probably because of their compatibility, but I think she is comfortable with the fact that Matkal can give her an answer in a few words.

If she is going to be the future Empress of the Heedata Empire, it would be better for her to get used to the waters of the Empire as soon as possible, as her brother had said. That country has its own customs. The earlier he gets accustomed to them, the better it will be for him. Besides, he needs to make some contacts before the wedding.

First of all, I will put my brother Vilas on the back. He should have no objection. Then, once he has all the Gremont family connections behind his brother, there will be no one to publicly criticize Eril. Now all that remains is how to hold back the imperial army.

That is the task of the Arrows, to whom he is engaged. My brother. Perhaps when he reaches a certain age, he will enlist in the Imperial Guard. And I will give him a military education there, but at the same time I will teach him the imperial sciences as an emperor.

If he joins the Imperial Army, Arrows will live together in a dormitory for a while. It would be better to have Eryl and the Arrows get to know each other before that. The old custom of meeting for the first time at the wedding would not suit this girl.

......Eryl is almost eight years old. Arrows is eleven. I am sure my brother will enlist Arrows in the Imperial Guard when she turns thirteen. Then it will be difficult for Eryl to see him. This is the year.
