Thiel muttered a few times in her mouth as if she was chewing on Ian’s name, then smiled broadly.

Ian watched the scene, then turned his head shyly and gestured.

“Okay, try transforming.’

Ian crossed his arms and said. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thiel carefully looked at Ian. read only at salmonlatte . com.

This annoying watermark is not there.

“Go ahead,”

At those words, Thiel spun around in place.

The little girl’s figure suddenly disappeared and a snow leopard appeared.

Thiel, who had turned into a snow leopard, passed Ian’s feet and quickly ran to the bed.

With a bundle of blankets in her mouth, Thiel brought it to rest at Ian’s feet, as if to snuggle up next to him.

“Do we have to take this too?”

Ian asked, with a tone suggesting, whether it was really necessary to take it. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thiel nodded in response to Ian’s question.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

‘Because my mother’s locket is here.’

Seeing that determined expression, Ian let out a sigh and accepted the bundle of blankets. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Only then did Thiel’s expression brighten slightly.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

And.

Ian held out his hand in the air.

Paaaa-!

Light poured in momentarily. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thiel closed her eyes and opened them.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

‘Wow…’

However, after confirming what Ian had created, she opened his mouth slightly.

In the air, Ian created a white hole.

Thiel took a step back in surprise at the sight. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was a natural reaction for Thiel, since she had never seen this kind of ability before.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ian tossed Thiel’s bundle of blankets into the hole.

“…!!”

Thiel opened her eyes wide in surprise.

‘The blanket is gone!’

I saw with my own eyes what Ian was holding. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.When he threw it into the hole, the blanket was completely gone.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Thiel didn’t know what to do and hovered around the hole. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The missing blanket was nowhere to be seen.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Seeing that, Ian thrust his hand into the hole.

“Now, look here.”

And then, Ian gently pulled out the small, knotted blanket from the hole and showed it to Thiel.

“Are you okay?”

“… Huh?”

“… this is my ability. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It creates a subspace that only I can open.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ian said, pointing to the white hole that had formed in the air.

Subspace creation.

It is an ability that allows the caster to create the desired space, and it is an ability that has not yet been properly revealed.

It was because there were almost no owners of this ability in the history of the empire.

It is said that a long time ago, a princess had the ability to create subspaces, but died without living long.

And after several hundred years, Iandros Krasion was born with the ability to create subspaces.

But still, few things have been revealed.

It was because Ian was extremely reluctant to reveal his ability.

Ian’s ability, ‘creation of subspace’, was capable of storing things in subspace and dragging people from the real world into subspace.

Of course, Thiel didn’t know this fact. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thiel took a step back, slightly frightened and swaying.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ian seemed to understand Thiel’s feelings and created a smaller pocket space in the air, saying, “You can open it anytime, and close it anytime. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.As long as I’m alive, you won’t get lost in here. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.So don’t worry.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Thiel cautiously approached, lips tightly pressed in thought.

‘Either way, there’s no choice.’

Even if you are forever trapped in that subspace, you have to go in first.

If more time is delayed, servants will come to pick up Ian, and if they find her, she will be dragged away right away.

to that attic.

Thiel looked up at Ian with her eyes twinkling as if she had made up her mind.

Thiel held out her tiny front paw to Ian.

Ian’s lips, looking at that figure, drew an arc gently.

He picked Thiel up in his arms.

“Don’t be too scared, I’ll get you out of there in no time.”

He carefully put Thiel into the subspace. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thiel reflexively closed her eyes.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

That moment.

“… uh, huh?”

Ian’s hand gently wrapped around her side disappeared, and the subspace that had been opened slowly closed.

Thiel looked around. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.And she gasped in surpriseread only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“… here.”

Ian’s subspace.

The inside was quite a mess.

Contrary to the image of Ian, who looked relaxed, the space he opened was a ruined mansion.

Dolls with torn stitches were scattered here and there, and torn books were scattered everywhere.

There were also old and broken toys. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thiel involuntarily reached out her front paw for the old doll.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

That moment.

‘Ah.’

The doll disappeared without a trace the moment Thiel’s paw touched it.

Thiel thought carefully as she put her front paws together carefully.

‘I can’t touch it.’

It seemed to disappear when touched. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thiel carefully sat down in the corner so that she wouldn’t damage this subspace.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Fortunately, in the corner of the ruined room, there was a cushion that was so soft and pretty that it was foreign.

Thiel tried to touch the cushion with her forepaw just in case.

‘This won’t go away.’

Fortunately, unlike other items, the cushion didn’t disappear even if Thiel’s forepaw touched it.

It was a cushion that did not match the broken subspace at all, but Thiel sat on it without a doubt.

Then she curled up on the cushion and blinked her eyes.

***

“I don’t know if you were comfortable during your stay.”

Zender, who was sitting across from the guest, smiled and slowly brought the teacup to his lips.

He had a smile on his face, but in reality, his stomach was burning.

‘Damn it, damn it!’

Zender gritted his teeth at the thought of his tiny, ungainly granddaughter.

Thiel.

A mongrel kid with no help whatsoever.

By sparing what should have been discarded long ago, Lena ended up causing trouble in the end, all for the sake of her daughter.

She escaped from her room last night and caused a commotion in the mansion.

‘Even on such an important day!’

Several household servants saw the little Thiel boldly enter the annex where the guests of the palace were staying.

Zender instructed them to thoroughly search the annex with the guests’ permission, but they couldn’t find Thiel.

And even now, she must be hiding somewhere in the mansion like a little mouse. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Zender gripped the handle of the teacup so hard that it seemed he could crush it.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

‘That little brat, if only we could catch her…’

Until the age of seven, Thiel had never crawled out of her room alone, and this neglect in her upbringing had finally become a problem.

Zender hoped that last night’s commotion hadn’t disturbed the man’s mind who stood before him, and he glanced at him nervously.

Cedric Yovino.

The guest who visited the mansion was the Emperor’s aide, who was here to test the qualities of Rowan Nestian as the crown princess candidate from the palace.

Zender had put in a great effort to entertain Cedric for the past month.

But then, that little brat Thiel ruined everything.

Cedric, sipping his tea with ease, whether or not he knew Zender’s feelings, said, “Thanks to your hospitality, I was able to stay without any inconvenience. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I would like to express my gratitude to the head of the Nestian family.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Upon hearing his words, Zender’s face brightened.

“I’m glad to hear that. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Before you leave, could you meet Rowan once more…?”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Thud.

Cedric put the teacup down with a noise.

“Miss Rowan has become an accomplished young lady. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It seems like it’s time for me to leave, since I have a long way to go. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I hope we can meet again next time. read only at salmonlatte . com.

This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Cedric got up from his seat coldly. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Just then, the door to the drawing room where Zender and Cedric were talking burst open.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Grandfather-!”

It was Zender’s granddaughter, Rowan, who suddenly came.

A lovely girl with finely gleaming silver hair gently walked into the room.

“Oh, Rowan, baby. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.For a moment…”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Zender tried to stop his granddaughter but to no avail.

Cedric raised his eyebrows at Rowan’s act of opening the parlor door without knocking.

Sensing Cedric’s uneasiness, Zender hurriedly tried to send Rowan away, but dealing with an unruly eldest granddaughter was difficult.

Zender glanced at the maid standing behind Rowan and asked, ‘Where’s Cornelia?’ But the maid didn’t understand.

“Grandfather, did the guest leave now? Did he ask you to take care of Rowan?”

Rowan asked with a bright smile while holding Zender’s hand tightly.

No one in the room noticed the young attendant standing next to Cedric, who frowned at Rowan’s reckless behavior.

Cedric sighed and tried to sort things out.

“Yes, Miss Rowan. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Nice to meet you. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.May Krasion’s protection be with you.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

To paraphrase Cedric, it meant that they would not be seeing each other anymore and that they would be fine.

However, young Rowan could not understand what Cedric meant.

“Yes, then when can we meet again? When will the guest come to Rowan’s mansion again?”

“Rowan, stop…”

Zender, who understood what Cedric meant, tried to stop Rowan with a white face, but to no avail.

“Grandpa, I want to go to the capital too! Can’t we follow the guest to the capital?”

Rowan’s dress fluttered. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Cedric didn’t respond to Rowan anymore.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Silence passed between them. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was Cedric who broke the silence first.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I’ll get going now.”

At Cedric’s words, Zender went white and followed him to see him off.

Among them, of course, was Rowan, who still had no idea what was going on.

The young servant next to Cedric looked at Rowan, who jumped and jumped, pathetically.

Brilliant golden hair appeared under the slightly swaying attendant’s hat and quickly disappeared.

The servants of the Nestian Mansion stood in a line and bowed to see them off.

Cedric, the young servant, and the guests of the imperial palace boarded the wagon, being escorted by all the servants of the Nestian family.

Zender had to break into a cold sweat trying to stop his granddaughter from insisting on getting on the royal carriage.

“May Krasion’s protection be with the house of Nestian.”

“Krasion… bless..”

Bang!

But before Zender could finish his sentence, the young servant slammed the door shut.

It was a pretty rude move, but the shocked Zender gave no thought to it.

The carriage hurriedly departed.

As soon as the carriage pulled away from the Nestian family’s mansion, Ian, who was disguised as an attendant, took off his hat and said,

“Damn, why is his tongue so long?”

“That’s the Lord of Nestian. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.You shouldn’t speak disrespectfully,”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Cedric scolded him slowly. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.But Ian paid no attention and rubbed his head as if he didn’t care.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Tsk, anyway. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.This is why I said I don’t want to get married early…”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Early on, Iandros Krasion needed a companion to imprint on.

Now Ian was in an unstable state.

The size of Ian’s ability was so great that Ian’s body couldn’t handle the power.

At this rate, I might run wild. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.“So I had to make a companion and imprint it.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Because companions can share their abilities through imprinting.

But.

Families that failed to become the head of each clan tried to gain power by producing a princess from their own family.

This situation continued. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Zender was the same kind of human being. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Ian was now irritated by the whole situation.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com.

Cedric, noticing Ian’s displeasure, quickly changed the subject of conversation.

“Anyway, the head of the Nestian family seemed uneasy. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Something to do with that incident at dawn…”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

It was only then that Ian looked as if he had realized something.

“Oh right.”

Ian put a finger to his lips and reached out into the air.

Cedric looked at Ian quietly.

Paaaa-!

The white glowing subspace swayed unsteadily in the air. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Cedric looked at the subspace created by Ian.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ian thrust his hands into the subspace. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.And…read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“…?”

“… kking.”

He suddenly took out a small baby snow leopard from the subspace.

“You, Your Highness?”

Cedric’s eyes widened.
