Chapter 15

Prim approached him carefully. Reynsis was dazed but he quickly looked away.

“No.”

Prim turned the table back as she glanced at him.

“I’m sorry I went out all of a sudden today. I had an emergency.”

“Coffee.”

Suddenly he murmured.

“What?”

“I smell coffee.”

When she heard him, she felt a sudden thump and grabbed the hem of her dress.

The smell must have been too strong. Prim just shrugged it off with some excuses.

“Yes. I like coffee.

“……”

“But you must have been reading all this time.”

She bent over to pick up a book.

[ BAMM ]

He snatched the book that was in her hand. In such a rapid move, Prim stared at him blankly.

“Do not look.”

Reynsis muttered while his face burned red. 3

“I am more curious if you say so.”

“No.”

“…..??”

What is wrong with him?

Prim suddenly remembered the rated 19 books that the maids were talking about. They hide it in secret. Only those who have lived in this palace can find it. 3

Don’t tell me…

A smile formed on her lips as Prim tried to peek and see the title. Then Reynsis snapped and moved away.

“What are you doing? Aren’t you going away?”

“I want to see the book.”

“You’re mad as hell. You can’t see it.”

“Oh my, Your Highness, I can see it.”

“You!”

The teasing was excellent. Prim laughed at him.

Reynsis hugged the book with a surprised look.

“Just kidding. I haven’t seen it.”

“…..”

Then Reynsis shut his mouth tight. His face had been visibly red. 3

Prim just giggled when she saw his burning face.

“I have to go now. Have a good night.”

Prim turned and tried to get out of the room.

“…Tomorrow.”

“What?”

“Are you going out again tomorrow?”

Reynsis asked carefully while looking at her. Prim turned her head and looked at him.

“Is tomorrow going to be the same as it is today?”

Prim shook her head. It was after these that she and Elena met.

“No, we are going to have a class tomorrow.”

You’re looking forward to it, aren’t you?

Prim, who deliberately smiled while looking at Reynsis, waiting for his answers.

But Reynsis didn’t say much. On the contrary, he looked a little bit squashed.

“……Yes.”

And even nodding his head. 1

Prim was startled with his reaction.

After a bit of thinking, Prim nodded.

“Yes, I’m teaching the Prince by accident.”

“Are you okay? Listen to me, the painters who taught the prince —”

“That’s all a lie!”

Elena looked at Prim with a surprised look.

Prim shouted in a loud voice. Thanks to her, the eyes of the people around focused towards them.

“The painters lied! Look, I’m fine.”

“Prim?”

“This hand was hurt because I was clumsy. It has nothing to do with the Prince!”

“Alright, okay. I trust you.”

Elena nodded. Otherwise, Prim seemed to get even angrier.

“And you said you were teaching the Prince, right?”

Elena looked down at the canvas before her eyes.

“…”

“…”

There was a silence between the two. Elina’s face was serious. Prim had a dumbfounded face.

“It’s different, isn’t it?”

“Yes, it’s really different.”

In other words, it meant strange.

Prim couldn’t draw. Therefore, the “real Prim” may have been well as a painter but the “fake Prim” that came into the body was not talented in painting.

However, she should not show her skills here. Then, it was all over.

“There were many forms of art in my hometown. This is my drawing in my own way. Think about it. Elena, you shouldn’t have taken me. Did I order it?”

“That’s true, but…”

Eleanor looked sideways at Prim’s painting as if it was hard to believe.

“Elina, what I’m after is avant-garde.”

What?”

“Avant-garde”

(Note: The avant-garde are people or works that are experimental, radical, or unorthodox with respect to art, culture, or society.)

“……What is it?”

“Like this.”

Prim pointed to her painting and said as Elena, who was only pouting, said with a serious look.

“You said there were many forms of art in Prim’s hometown, right?”

“Yes.”

“Then I’ll show you what arts are popular in the Empire”.

“… Yes?”

“So that no one is suspicious of the Prince.”

Elena’s eyes began to twinkle with enthusiasm.

The manipulation was not working. Prim realized something was wrong.
