Ninym Ralei was early to rise from bed. It was part of her morning routine to wake up at the crack of dawn. After all, she lived in an era when daylight was too precious to waste.

Plus, she was participating in a military expedition and needed to avoid squandering lamp oils and candles. That made starting work at sunrise the most optimal solution.

But the very first thing she did was cleanse herself.

“…Phew.”

It’d been one week since Natra took over the Jilaat gold mine.

The Natran forces had put the former managers of the mine back to work and had familiarized themselves with the layout of their temporary headquarters, finally bringing their affairs up to speed. At long last, she could take some time to shower.

Well, seeing how she was out here, she used the term showering pretty liberally. She couldn’t soak herself in hot water or dab scented oil on her skin. As a woman, she felt a keen desire for a few more luxuries that catered to her wants, but as a sensible aide, she drove it out and kept it at bay.

Well then, I better go wake him.

Stepping out of the bathtub, she dried off and dressed herself before continuing down the hallway to head for Wein’s bedroom.

“Miss Aide. Up early again, I see.” Two guards stood in front of his door.

“I can’t oversleep, or His Highness will, too. Anything to report while you were on watch?”

“Nothing to report. All has been quiet.”

“Very good. As you were.”

The guards stepped away from the door, letting Ninym enter the prince’s room.

It was modest. On the day their forces had seized this place, the army had appropriated everything of value in the building. The original owners had taken most of the valuables with them as they fled, so the army hadn’t gathered much. But looking beyond material possessions, this room contained the Kingdom of Natra’s second most precious item.

It was Wein Salema Arbalest, sleeping on the bed.

“…Wein,” she breathed into his ear.

He wouldn’t wake up. She knew that. He loved sleeping—and despised getting up. If she let him, he’d sleep, dead like a log, until the middle of the day. He’d wake up only when the sun shone through his windows a little too brightly.

Right now, the best she could do was open the curtains, let light pour in, and cheerfully whisper in his ear. Only then would he groggily crawl out from under his warm blanket.

But that wasn’t her first course of action. She rested her hands on her chin by his pillow and stared at his sleeping face. Every now and then, she’d watch Wein sleep—it was her moment of indulgence.

“Mnn… Hrnnm.”

He groaned, croaking incomprehensible noises from the back of his throat. What could he be dreaming about? He looked too peaceful to be caught in a nightmare.

Could he be dreaming about me?

She had no way of knowing, but the thought alone made her happy.

I think I’ll make some of Wein’s favorites for breakfast today.

Out here in Marden, they didn’t
