Michael felt dizzy just thinking about that touch again.
'Haa, this is putting the cart before the horse.'
While trying to seduce the Princess, he was the only one who fell deeper into it.
Michael tilted his head back again. His chest was stuffy.
"Eve."
He was going to sigh, but her name just came out. It was unconscious.
Michael wanted to call Eve that, but he could never call her that by mistake.
It is because he taught her that calling unauthorized nicknames at will means wanting to sleep.
Eve was the central axis of regression.
Thinking she remembered her past life, the conversation he had with her at the time was unusual.
"Is it true that after you sorted out your relationship with that homunculus, you accepted me as your direct knight?"
"...Huh? Oh, yeah. He's dead.
"It's fortunate, but it's shame."
No matter how much he thinks about it, Michael himself was the one who died and cleaned up himself.
"I'm going crazy..."
Because he did not even know the existence of the past life, Michael believed in the pure self of this life and said everything.
It was not enough to give Eve the meaning of the nickname honestly, and he even harshly criticized himself in the past as a blind man who dared to show sexual desire to the Princess first.
"Sigh...Why did you do that..."
A sigh broke out of its own accord.
It was hard to wake up to the endless rush of shame.
He covered the aforementioned face with his hands pretending to wash it with water. However, it was not enough, and after a long time, it came out after being immersed in the bath water.
There was a simple desire to go back to that time and cover up his mouth if he could go back to it once more.
"Did I make any other mistakes?"
He looked back on his whole life after meeting Eve. The memory of self-destruction came out again.
It was when Eve and he went abroad to the spruce forest alone. He seems to have cursed a person who carried out a ritual of regression, a person who couldn't do it when he was close and then disappeared.
Let's say it's okay because it's a sound in front of the Great Sage...
However, the fact that Eve met the sage in the same way as he met the sage through his dream at that time could not be let go.
'How far did the Great Sage tell Eve that day?;
Eve's memories of her past life would have been cut off at the time of her death.
She must have questioned the miraculous return.
So, what is the principle of regression?
She must have gone the the Great Sage in the Zelkova forest to ask what happened.
Then, how much did the Great Sage tell his favorite disciple about the truth related to the ritual of regression?
Did he do the same in front of Eve when he couldn't stand the loss of his precious person?
"I'm going crazy."
No matter how much it is about himself in the past life, the feeling was connected to this life.
It was hard for me to stay sane thinking I was exposed in that way.
He went back into the water to the tip of his head and came out.
He didn't think he could talk about the fact of regression while facing Eve's face yet.
'Let's be quiet until Eve speaks first. Eve will need to prepare herself.'
It was right strategically, too. Revealing to Eve that he remembers her, even in fragments, does not help in seducing her at all.
For Michael, the past is like a black history. He even purged the imperial family by committing treason and imprisoned her.
The part that can offset this sin is the fact that he enthusiastically loved Eve and carried out a ritual of regression.
However, even the only advantage was beaten with a harsh evaluation, saying that he was a reckless man who showed sexual desire.
'Ha. What does Eve think of me in my past life...'
No matter how he looked at it, he didn't think the comprehensive evaluation would be good.
Michael sighed, thrusting his forehead slightly into the marble pillar. He felt a sense of denial.
He wondered if this is how it feels to lose motivation in life.
Michael from the past life was such an unattractive man that he was even told to sharpen his charm to Eve.
How terrible must it be from Eve's point of view, as a man who is not even in her heart flirted with wanting to sleep?
Even if he thought about it a hundred or a thousand times, it seemed right to cut himself off from the past life and start anew.
"I'm different from him. There's no reason to take over karma."
His memory has not yet returned, and his personality was different in the first place.
Unlike Michael in the past life, who didn't hesitate to taint his body and mind, Michael in this life wanted to give his everything entirely to Eve.
As Michael blamed his past life for not being clear and white, his thoughts naturally became related to Rosenite.
There was something he had to point out.
'How far does Eve know about her death? Does she know that the 8th Princess poisoned her?'
In this life, Eve appeared to be wary of Rosenite. Especially in situations involving Michael, it seemed even more so.
'Are you guessing the motive of the poisoning? If so, that's a relief.'
Michael will behave correctly in this life, but it would have been more reassuring if she recognized the dangers and defended herself.
It was then. As if it was too early to relax, a shocking fact came to mind and struck Michael in the back of the head.
" Ah."
A baby.
The baby problem remained.
In the last life, Rosenite went to Eve to hand over the poison.
Wouldn't Rosenite have bragged about the baby pride in her stomach while constantly trying to persuade and threaten her rivals?
No way. As evidence, Eve even promised Michael that she would make a baby while letting him know that a harp of a human being and a homunculus is possible. Where did all that information come from?
It was clear that the mouth of Rosenite from the past life came from.
If so, Eve must have mistakenly thought that what was in Rosenite's stomach was himself and Rosenit's child.
'Oh, my God.'
The child was a completely different matter, even if it was inevitable that he fulfilled all of his duties as a direct knight of Rosenite.
And he could only explain this by telling her that he remembered it.
However, even if he explained it, he was not completely proud.
He seduced Rosenite to the fullest extent for political reasons and then pretended to be his lover and made her have a different affection for him. It was a shameless piece of trash.
"I'm going crazy. Ha..."
Why on earth did he live so wrong in his past life? It was hard because he kept being held back.
Will Eve, who remembers all this, love him?
When Michael was questioned, the purple eyes wandered with gloom. He had a heartbroken face as if he had already been broken.
The moment when Michael was radiating a lonely charm on his own, Eve was listening to Cedella's report in the office.
The slime essence dragon release entrusted to Rahman had already been completed, and the stone worm internal potion was also in prototype form.
He said that he hoped that the glorious day would come when Eve would use the potion so that the efficiency and safety could be verified quickly.
"So when is the approximate date of completion?"
"It is said that it can be completed stably by the end of the summer rainy season."
"It's late. At least until the masquerade meeting just before the summer wet season, it's on the market and needs to go viral."
Although it was originally developed as a treatment for heart disease, there was no reason to give up its original efficacy and benefits as a stimulant.
Rather, if she acted decently for no reason, she would greatly disappoint Rahman.
And it just so happened that the palace's masquerade ball was the starting point for a boom in the aphrodisiac and stimulant business.
Once the summer rainy season begins, the world is submerged in heavy rain day and night.
There were few ways to get pleasure in a state where it was impossible to even take a walk, let alone outside activities.
"I think the summer and winter rainy seasons played a role in the development of the empire's sex culture."
The Imperial Palace's Mask Dance Society, also known as the 'Daydream of the Summer', is held for three days just before the summer rainy season.
Therefore, it was a time for men and women who did not want to spend the rainy season bored to find a partner, and it was also a time to find out about the items needed for a healthy nightlife through word of mouth.
She had no choice but to enjoy the special.
"Tell Rahman to focus only on the commercialization of Stamina Potion for the time being."
"I see, Your Royal Highness."
Cedella took orders and moved on to the next report.
Then, stories such as the palace's preparation for the summer rainy season, the progress of the development of the pioneering district, and the arms orders pushed into Riblo's blacksmith's shop were briefly discussed and moved on.
The next thing Eve listened to was Brigette's movements.
"Her Majesty Queen Lemieux is in contact with wealthy but low-ranking aristocrats through the salons of the Marquess of Lamecal."
Lemieux is Brigette's birth mother as the fourth Queen and the Marquis of Lamecal is Lemieux's parents.
"Looks like she's trying to get a decent end-to-end temporary funding package."
"Is it to support the Marquis Chansley who is working today and tomorrow?"
"No. The fine was handed down to the criminal offense discovered by the Emperor. It doesn't look good because she's actively coming. Moreover, the third Princess must have been angry because she received information about the rise in the price of magic stone and sold it to other nobles."
"So you're moving because Your Highness the 3rd Princess herself needs funds right away?"
"That's right."
The reason was obvious.
"She's trying to raise funds to run the imperial guard as she wants."
