The midsummer wind blew softly when Cedric finally returned to the Blaine Kingdom. On the outside, he looked calm, like a prince who had just returned from a diplomatic visit. But behind that attitude, his mind kept replaying every word from his conversation with Cecilia.
Cecilia's plan was indeed great. But even without it, Cedric had prepared a perfect plan to overthrow his father. But that didn't mean Cedric would reject Cecilia's offer. Something was bothering him. Therefore, Cedric decided to play along with Cecilia's wishes.
"The King has been waiting for you, Prince Cedric."
The reception from the people in the palace was as cold as usual when Cedric finally reached the throne hall. Cedric was not surprised when he received such a cold welcome. After all, they must have believed they had a chance to get rid of him by allowing him to go to Magenta.
