t?”

“I wouldn’t have let you go to the academy alone if I could… If I tried I could do it, but I feel it’s dangerous.”

“Why?”

When our eyes met, Heinley averted her gaze and murmured,

“There was one time I tried to do something like that and it didn’t work as expected…”

What is wrong with him? He seemed to have some trauma related to this.

In the end, I decided to have Grand Duke Kapmen help me feel the mana in front of Heinley.

“Empress Navier, hold out your hand.”

Although Heinley didn’t know that the Grand Duke fell in love with me after drinking a potion, he couldn’t hide his unease when Grand Duke Kapmen grabbed my hand.

While I tried hard to pretend not to be aware of his expression, I turned my attention to my hand held by Grand Duke Kapmen.

“Please focus on the sensation going up along the length of your arm.”

“All right.”

It was hard for me to concentrate at first because I was worried about Heinley.
But once I closed my eyes completely, I felt a tingling around the palm of my hand.

“Huh.”

“Can you feel it?”

“Just a little…”

After a while, I felt it again.
This time around my wrist.

It was a strange sensation.
It was like a very faint electric shock.
It wasn’t painful, but it was definitely felt.

“I can feel it.
It’s a tingling.”

“It’s because of the nature of my mana.
Now I’ll put some more in.”

Just as I was about to nod to concentrate on my arm, someone suddenly pulled my hand away from Grand Duke Kapmen.

As soon as I opened my eyes in surprise, I saw Heinley in the middle of the Grand Duke and me with a flushed reddened face.

With one hand gripping mine and the other gripping Grand Duke Kapmen’s forearm.

“Heinley?”

Looking at him with a quizzical expression, Heinley said with a stiff smile.

“My Queen.
I myself will learn it from the Grand Duke and do it.”

“It could relive your trauma…”

“Jealousy seems to suppress the trauma.”

Grand Duke Kapmen chuckled as if he had read his thoughts.

In any case, it was convenient for me.
I preferred Heinley to do it, so I quietly stepped aside.

Heinley stood where I was a moment ago, the two of them hesitated and joined hands.

Wait… what the hell were they doing? I unconsciously bit my lower lip as I watched the scene.

It was very funny.
Why did they both have that expression? It was a face of utter displeasure.

But I couldn’t laugh because they would both feel embarrassed, so I looked at them with a deadpan face.

Just then, the door burst open and McKenna ran in.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”

He had a very serious expression.

McKenna had permission to freely come and go from Heinley’s office.
He seemed to have rushed in on urgent business…

As soon as he saw Heinley and Grand Duke Kapmen with their hands clasped together, McKenna was perplexed.

“Wait, what are you guys doing?”

His expression got even worse when he saw me standing off to the side.

“Empress, what are you looking at?”

McKenna’s pupils quivered rapidly.

“Why, why do our Emperor and the Grand Duke hold hands so amicably, and why does Your Majesty look at them so happily…”

Belatedly, Heinley and Grand Duke Kapmen let go of each other’s hands.
Taking about five steps back.

“It’s because of me.”

When I stepped forward to try to fix the situation, McKenna said with narrowed eyes,

“Ah, of course, it’s because of the Empress.
Well, the basics are bread and coffee, but if it’s coffee with milk so much the better.”

He spoke in a very solemn tone.
However, what kind of metaphor was that?

“I don’t care what the three of you do by mutual agreement.
But don’t ask me to play the role of jam.”

Jam?

“Ah, this isn’t the important point.”

McKenna patted his own head before grimly exclaiming,

“Christa has committed suicide!”
