Chapitre 67: 040. Imperial Prince is Heading Out to Enjoy a Festival -3 (Part One)

It was the death anniversary of a woman.

To remember her passing, people came together. The location was the garden found within the imperial palace.

The ceremony itself was simple, sombre, and quiet.

Kelt, Luan, and myself stood before the woman's statue and offered our silent prayers. The ceremony itself was brief; it ended quickly and everyone went on their own ways.

However, I remained behind and continued staring at the statue.

Harman addressed me from behind. "It's Lady Yulisia. She was your mother, your highness."

Stunned by that revelation, I took a deeper look at her statue.

That's right... I did hear about her. She was the Crown Princess Consort, and the mother of the current me. The one who lost her life while valiantly defending the Seventh Imperial Prince from a Vampire's sneak attack.

She was also apparently the most pure-hearted and kindest person as well.

I stared at the statue erected above her final resting place and offered one more silent prayer.
