Chapter 23

It was during a walk in the garden.

Today, the palace seemed unusually noisy. Servants were rushing around, and the priests were more visible than usual.

Clearly, something had happened.

Then, a familiar face caught my eye. It was Louis, crossing the garden hastily.

"Brother?"

"Oh, Livia. Are you taking a walk?"@@novelbin@@

"Yes, but you seem to be in a hurry. Is something wrong?"

He hesitated before answering.

"Did you come to see me?"

"No, not that."

Then what is it? Louis is a high-ranking noble but not a minister. He isn’t particularly close to Leto either. He wouldn’t have any reason to frequent the palace other than to see me.

He spoke with difficulty.

"I received news that my master is critically ill. Shawn is on his way to the palace as well."

"Your master, as in from the academy?"

"Yes, Professor Quinas. You met him when you married into the palace."

...I remembered. The great scholar of the Set Empire, Quinas Unt.

The Matrion brothers, the high-ranking nobles, and Leto's mentor.

He dedicated his life to educating the royal family. He was highly respected and academically brilliant. Unfortunately, he fell gravely ill in his old age and is dying.

In the original story, the nature of his illness is not revealed. However, from the symptoms, it is presumed to be cancer.
