“That is ugly! Ugly…good to see you, Empress-Mom!”

It was solely then that Monica knew that the title of the hen was Ugly.

“Ugly is Adrian’s good friend! Courageous and large! However you must give him. As a result of he’s Adrian’s comrade.”

Evelyn might see that Monica sighed a bit, and simply stared with an expressionless face in direction of Adrian.

“Does he imply, he need to make that hen because the Prince’s comrade…..?” Monica requested Evelyn in a whisper as she wasn’t positive about it. And Evelyn quietly nodded her head.

“What would you like me to do? I give him…?”

“Ti-tle! That’s how he generally is a noble.”

“Ah…… You need me to provide him a title.”

Evelyn took a deep breath because the thriller lastly solved.

“Oh, I imply, that’s the regulation within the Imperial Palace the place you reside. However not within the separate Palace the place I stay. “

Now Evelyn couldn’t work out how this case was going.

“Uhm….Actually………?”

However Adrian nonetheless fiddled with Monica’s hand as if he nonetheless had one thing to say.
