Chapter 102 Cecilia arrives ahead of schedule
Chapter 102 Cecilia arrives ahead of schedule
For the week that followed, our delegation had a busy schedule.
In place of Vettel, he went out to every corner of the city of Ferris as well as the suburbs under the guidance of his aide, Count Ponta Huxley.
I also visited rice fields and fields there.
What the members found most interesting was rice.
After listening to what Ponta had explained, I translated it to the delegation members.
“The pure white rice that is served on the table often comes from this rice.”

The first member who responded that he was curious was Viscount Arko.
Since wheat was the staple food in the empire, there was almost no need to see rice at all. So, it was not unreasonable for everyone to be amazed.
Except me.
‘Well, I don’t have the chance to see it in person like this often.’
Because in my previous life, I mainly encountered rice through TV.
Aside from rice, there were many crops that were hard to see in the empire.
In the carriage returning from the field trip, I asked Fonta a question.
“When trade resumes, it seems that there will be a lot of trade in agricultural products. What do you think, Count Huxley?”
“I am of the same opinion as the captain. However, it is not yet certain.”
That was right, so I nodded my head as a sign of understanding.
After going on field trips all day, today I have free time for the first time in a while.
Shall we go see real estate?
After thinking about that for a while, I shook my head.
Looking at a mansion doesn’t mean you can buy it right now.
And strangely, Ileina’s worrying about me a few days ago kept lingering in her head.
‘Let’s rest quietly today.’
Otherwise, I think it would be nice to look at the borrowed book.
I, who had been rolling around on the soft bed, decided to read and got up. Right after that, someone knocked on the door.
“Who are you?”
“Earl Huxley, Captain.”
As soon as I opened the door, he informed me of the business he had come to me.
“His Highness Vettel was looking for it. I heard you received a letter from the Empress of the Empire.”
“Ah! Really?”
When I asked back in surprise, Fonta nodded.
In that case, I’ll go check it out soon.
I headed to Vettel’s office on the first floor with Fonta.
He knocked on the door of the office on my behalf and let me in.
“Ah, welcome.”
Vettel greeted me with a kind smile. Then he showed me the envelope.
A pure white envelope with gold trim around the edges.
Even in the Eckhart Empire, only Cecilia could use it.
“Come here.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
I walked closer to his desk.
Vettel took out the paper knife from the drawer to remove the seal, then carefully took out the stationery.
“Let’s see…….”
As soon as he opened the letter and checked the contents, he closed his eyes tightly.
“Looks like a letter to the captain. I want you to read it instead.”
He handed me a letter. At the beginning of the letter written in the imperial language, the phrase ‘To Luke’ was written.
Before reading, I first glanced over the contents.
[Immediately after contacting you, I finished preparations for departure as quickly as possible.
By the time this letter arrives at the palace, my arrival will not be far off.
I’m most concerned about whether you had a good discussion with King Betel beforehand.
Of course, he believes you would have been good enough.
Currently, the families of the Marquis of Ranker are imprisoned in the dungeon of the imperial palace.
As soon as the discussion on diplomatic relations ends this time, they will be executed, so I hope you will tell the king about this. (Syncopation)]
“… ….”
Speaking Some sensitive details are also included.
“I wonder what Her Majesty the Empress of the Empire might have written down.”
I only talked about the core, leaving out the sensitive content.
First, the arrival date is not far away.
Secondly, all the descendants of the criminal family were imprisoned in the dungeon.
Lastly, as soon as this diplomatic relationship ends, he will be executed without fail.
“I see. I’m glad you seem to have a strong will. Is there anything else besides that?”
“You said you wanted to see Your Highness as soon as possible.”
“Whoops. I also want to see Her Majesty as soon as possible.”
A line was drawn on Vettel’s mouth.
“I’m really looking forward to seeing what kind of gifts you bring to Sergel Kingdom.”
“Maybe you can look forward to it.”
I have no idea what Cecilia might have brought, but she said that for now.
‘Well, I must have taken care of it myself.’
“Your Highness. May I take this letter with you?”
“Of course. It came to our palace, but it’s the same as sending it to the captain.”
After thanking him, I took the envelope and the letter paper in my arms.
“Your Majesty seems to have a lot of trust in you.”
A strange smile appeared on Vettel’s face.
What are you imagining?
I was nervous, but I thought I shouldn’t ask.
“I will step back, Your Highness Bethel.”
I greeted him and left the office.
As I was walking along the corridor, I noticed Princess McKenna approaching from the other side. She recognized me in a pale pink dress and immediately stopped her steps.
“Hello, Princess McKenna.”
“We met again today.”
By the way, the princess was visiting the palace almost once every two days.
“His Highness Betel is in the office.”
“Thanks for letting me know, Captain Nedville.”
She greeted me with her graceful movements and headed for Vettel’s office without looking back.
I stared at the back of her as she walked away.
‘What kind of relationship do those two have?’
I don’t think we’re usually close enough to visit each other this often…….
But for some reason, I felt the pressure. That kind of feeling that you shouldn’t touch it carelessly.
Well, you know what to do.
I shrugged once and walked to my room.

Cecilia’s carriage arrived at the northern gate of Peris, the capital of Sergel Kingdom, about 15 days after leaving the Eckhart Empire.
As a result of Cecilia’s order of a tremendous forced march, she succeeded in shortening the time by as much as 5 days.
The captain of the escort knight approached Cecilia’s carriage and informed her that she had arrived at her destination. Cecilia nodded her head, but the expression on her face showed that she had done it quietly.
“I realized throughout this journey that carriages can run so fast… ….”
Muttered Flora, who was riding in the same carriage as Cecilia, half dazed.
Then Mullia, who was next to her, nodded her head twice.
Cecilia let out her long sigh.
“I need to move leisurely when I go back.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Mulia gave a short answer.
“Yes. My back hurt three days ago…….”
Flora rubbed her lower back with her hands in tears.
I should get a massage as soon as I get to the palace.
While Flora was thinking about her next plan, the leader guarding the northern gate approached Cecilia’s carriage.
He saluted as soon as Cecilia appeared outside her door.
“I am Cecilia Campbell Eckhart. She is the current emperor of the Eckhart Empire.”
Cecilia introduced herself in her dignified voice.
“Welcome to Her Majesty the Empress of the Empire.”
“I want you to inform the palace of my arrival.”
The captain replied in a loud voice that he would do it.
“Wow! Your Majesty, you are so handsome.”
“Your kingdom language skills are really amazing.”
As Flora and Mullia admired, Cecilia raised the corner of her mouth.
“This is no big deal to me.”
But the two maids knew.
The fact that Cecilia was originally the type that was weak to her compliments. At the same time, the fact that he is working hard on managing his expression now.
About 40 minutes had passed since I waited in front of the gate.
“The gates are open!”
A deep voice came from the front of the procession.
Soon afterward, the imperial carriage also began to slowly move along with the procession.
“Finally, we are entering the capital city of Peris!”
Flora’s voice was filled with excitement and excitement. Mullia fixed her gaze out the window, her excitement showing on her face.
“Now, can we meet Mr. Luke?”
The moment ‘Luke’s name was mentioned, Mullia jerked her head towards Flora. Cecilia also looked at Flora.
Flora looked at the two women alternately, and she smiled mischievously.
“Oops. Did Mullia miss you, too, and Her Majesty misses Mr. Luke?”
At that moment, Cecilia and Mulia both shuddered and shook their shoulders at the same time.
“Well, since you are my secretary, how can you not be worried?”
“Yes. As a colleague myself, I was just worried.”
But Flora clearly saw the pale blush on the cheeks of the two women.
“So you weren’t worried about Luke?”
“Of course I was worried. But I believed that you would do well in a faraway country.”
Flora’s voice was full of conviction.
“Because Mr. Luke is such a wonderful person.”
“Hmm. That’s right.”
“Yes. I think so.”
The wagon carrying them quickly approached the palace.
* * *
At the news of Cecilia’s arrival, not only the people in the palace, but all of our envoys came out the front door.
Vettel ordered the drivers to stand side by side on the red carpet.
More people gathered than when we were greeted, and the red carpet was much longer.
Our delegation was located at the very end of the red carpet.
“I didn’t expect Your Majesty to arrive so quickly.”
Count Henkers whispered to me.
To be honest, I was also unexpected. I never thought Cecilia would arrive so soon…….
That’s why he probably wanted to discuss exchanges with the kingdom as soon as possible.
After a while, the gate to the royal palace site opened, and the carriages of the Eckhart Empire began to enter one by one. In the middle of the procession was the most splendid imperial carriage.
The moment I saw that carriage, my heart beat a little faster than usual.
‘I’ll see Cecilia, Flora, and Mulia soon.’
I was glad to see them for the first time in a while, but on the other hand, I also thought that I should show them properly.
I don’t know why…….
Soon the carriage procession came to a complete stop, and Cecilia got off the carriage.
At the same time, the orchestra started playing.
It was the moment when a historic encounter was about to begin.
