It was ten at night. Luc and Ruby would leave at twelve, Luc said. Dem was arguing with Luc about something again and the duke was with them. Ruby was taking a break since she had been standing for too long. Iris and I were chatting, a bit far away from the crowd.

"The preparation has been amazing. No wonder the wedding planner is the one who planned your wedding," she said.

"Yeah. I suggested her to Luc," I agreed.

"That\'s great. It seems Ruby had a hard day. Just look at her... I wish I could take her somewhere to less crowded. But she is the main attraction, though I think people are more interested in the Queen."

"That\'s because I don\'t join banquets at all. I got a lot of invitations, but I am busy. I don\'t have any time for those. Besides, I don\'t really like to get close to these people. They are the ones who spread rumors the most. It would be good if they were on my side for sure.

But right now, I have managed to get the important political figures on my side. Dem helped a lot with that too. So, not many people can go against me even though I am a human," I said.

"Yes, some puny nobles are not needed to pay any attention to," she grumbled. "They just go around partying and try to light a fire to a good atmosphere for no good reason. Those flies... But our Blue is very brave for being able to be such a great Queen despite your age. I really admire you for that."

"Greeting, Your Majesty, the Queen and the mother of Querencia, and Her Grace, the Duchess."

I was taken aback by the sudden greeting. I turned back and found three women curtsying. "I am Merry Sunrock, the successor of Marquis Alfredo Sunrock."

"I am Penny Starwolf, youngest daughter of Earl Benson Starwolf."

"And I am Latte Prideglow. I am the elder sister of Marchioness Spring Prideglow."

\'Latte? She is named after coffee. I will assume that her parents loved coffee. And her sister\'s name is also unique. Spring- perhaps their mother\'s favorite season was spring. Anyway, not bad.\'

"You may rise. I am familiar with Marquis Alfredo, Marchioness Spring, and Earl Benson. It feels great to meet their offspring as well," I said.

"We are very grateful to be able to meet Your Majesty," Merry said. "We were very curious to see what kind of person Her Majesty, the Queen is."

\'So disrespectful. What do they want? No one can talk like this to the Queen if it\'s not another King or Queen. Even they maintain their tone. Her tone is very rude.\'

"Your Majesty exceeded our expectations," she chuckled, hiding her face behind her fan.

"May I ask what Lady Merry expected?" Iris asked, controlling her tone. It seemed she was pissed.

"Hm, I thought a human was just a human. But of course, Her Majesty, the Queen has to be extraordinary and..."

"Lady Merry, do you know that you are being disrespectful towards Her Majesty, the Queen?" Iris asked.

"Oh my, I was just answering Your Grace\'s question."

"Well, let\'s say the lady was answering the duchess\'s question. But doesn\'t the lady know that it\'s the Queen she is talking about? You see, if everyone hears that you disrespected the Queen, they will mock you. But if I cut your tongue right now in front of everyone, I wonder who will dare to stop me. Well, you know, recently, I have developed this new hobby to curve on others\' faces with my dagger.

I wonder what if I show it to everyone. The lady can have the honor to be my doll for today."

"W-What...?" she trembled and the other two women stepped back a bit.

"Lady Merry was brave enough to be rude to me, yet the lady is afraid of this. Tsk, how can such a dim-witted person be Marquis Alfredo\'s heir? It seems I need to talk to the Marquis a bit since it concerns my kingdom as well."

"You... you can\'t."

"Lady Merry, do I have to show you that I was not joking about curving on your face?" I glared at her. "If you understand, why don\'t you get out of here and not come in front of me tonight again? I think I need to clean my eyes right now... Shoo, shoo, go away..."

She was fuming in anger as she walked away with the other two women who asked for my forgiveness. I did not forgive though.

"Really, that bitch! She was talking that way to the Queen. More than the words, it\'s the tone she used. Good thing that you showed her a lesson. I wished you slapped her."

"There are a lot of people like her. She just showed herself and others are still behind the shadow," I muttered.

"His Majesty is looking this way again and again. I think His Majesty wants you to go there or something... Ah, no, he is coming this way. I better be on my way. I will go to Ruby."

"Alright," I nodded.

"How are you feeling?" Dem asked.

"I\'m fine. Just this coat is uncomfortable," I replied.

"The Royal coat? You can take it off if you want to," he said.

"But how can I? I am the Queen and I am to wear it," I said. "What will others say?"

"Who cares about that?" he shrugged.

"Haa, I do," I said. "Anyway, forget about that. By the way, do you know Lady Merry?"

"Who is that?"

"The successor of Marquis Alfredo."

"Oh, is that so?"

"Yes, she had come to greet me a while ago along with two other ladies- Lady Penny and Lady Latte. They are respectfully the youngest daughter of Earl Benson Starwolf and the elder sister of Marchioness Spring Prideglow. Lady Merry was disrespectful towards me."

"What did she say?" he asked, gritting his teeth.

"You don\'t have to worry about that. I was just asking if I can shape her life a bit," I said.

"Shape her life a bit?" he chuckled. "Why don\'t you let me do it? I will make sure you never have to see her again."

\'You are going to kill her...\'

"No, I will take care of it. It\'s my problem, so let me take care of it," I said. "Or did you make me the Queen so I will come running to you about every single of my problems?"

"I made you the Queen so you can stay by my side as my wife," he said. "I don\'t mind if you come running to me."

"I... I don\'t want that. I want to solve my own problems. Since you don\'t like it if I do something without letting you know, I wanted to tell you about it. I don\'t require your help."

"Alright, do whatever you want," he said. "I\'m glad that you let me know first."

Just when I thought that I could now sit down quietly, two people came running toward me. They were perhaps in their forties.

The woman had brown hair and the man also had brown hair with a few silver strands, just like Luc. It was clear who they were.

"Greetings, Your Majesty, the Queen, and the King," the man bowed and the woman did a curtsy.

"Marquis and Marchioness, it\'s been long," Dem said. It was the first time I heard him saying something back after someone greeted him. "They are Luc\'s parents, Blue. It must be your first time meeting them."

"Ah, Luc\'s parents. I have heard about you two a lot. It\'s great to meet you both in person," I smiled.

"Oh my! Your Majesty, the Queen is very generous and beautiful," the Marchioness smiled. "Isn\'t that right, dear?"

"Yes, Her Majesty is kinder than Luc said," the Marquis nodded.

\'What have I done to be kind all of a sudden?\'

"Luc is Dem\'s childhood friend and now my friend as well. So, please call me Blue," I said.

"Is that alright? Then Blue should call me Mom."

"Yes, and you can call me Dad."

\'Luc was not exaggerating. But they are very adorable.\'

"Sure then," I smiled.

"Kya! We actually want to spend some time with Blue because Blue is just so adorable. Then we would like to propose something," the Marchioness said. "Luc told us about Blue and since then, we wanted to meet you. You don\'t even know how happy we are."

"Is that so?" I chuckled.

"See, Blue? Didn\'t I tell you? They truly ditched their own son to meet you," Luc grumbled, coming up from behind. "Mother just gained the courage to finally talk to you and came running. Father is no different. It seems you are their daughter and I am just a passerby."
