Chapter 109
A few days passed, and it was already weekend .
The last few days were pretty relaxed . In the day, I attended classes and helped Dina in the student council . At night, I would send [Eternity's Fangs] to train inside the space-time tunnel while I meditated to recover my injuries .
Sometimes, I would go to Mrs . Lluvia's house to show my face . I also went inside the space-time tunnel a pair of times to accelerate the recovery of my injuries .
Like that, the week passed .
Although I could live in the dormitory permanently, as a prince, I had to return to the palace regularly . Moreover, I had certain plans in the palace, so I decided to return each weekend .
Dina, on the other hand, decided to remain in the institute and try to create opportunities to talk with the other students . She wanted to create a strong image in the students' hearts so they can accept her as the emperor more easily .
Many of the students in the institute were the future lords of the empire, so gaining their loyalty was the same as gaining the future lords' loyalty .
Of course, gaining their loyalty was not something she could do right away, but with Dina's charisma, starting with a few students would not be a problem
Thus, I agreed to her idea .
The palace was the same as when I left . The same tall walls, the same cold atmosphere, the same guards, and the same servants . Well, nothing much could change in a week .
When the carriage entered the palace, I saw someone familiar .
One of the guards meet my gaze and trembled in fear .
Sir Raul, the imperial guards' captain, shook visibly when he felt my gaze . His face turned pale, and his hands trembled involuntarily .
"P-Prince C-Claus, you are back . " He stuttered .
I descended off the carriage followed by Daisy and smiled at him .
"Oh? If it's Sir Raul . Have you been well?"
"Y-Yes . T-Thank you for your concern . "
I nodded with a malicious smile . "Is it so? You look pale though . "
Sir Raul started to sweat cold . The seed of fear in his mind made him terrified of my presence .
Seeing the situation, some of the guards put on startled expressions . Sir Raul usually treated me with disdain, so they could not understand why he was so respectful today .
I just smiled at them and walked inside . I made a mental note to visit Elene soon . I wonder how is she doing after not seeing me for one week .
Before I could reach my room, a petite shadow suddenly rushed towards me .
"Big bro!" Lena jumped towards my chest excitedly .
I caught her gently and stroked her head . "Lena . "
"… Big brother, I missed you . " She whispered softly on my chest .
"Me too . I was starting to miss seeing my cute little sister each day . "
