Time began to move more quickly after the head maid's visit. And before long, it was Ellis's birthday… just a few hours before his ability, Ephemeral Soul Genesis, would become usable in its entirety.
He was in his best condition, and nothing seemed to be going wrong. So, Ellis was happy.
Everything should become better after today, after all.
That's what he believed in!
So, as royalty, even if an abandoned one… should he not celebrate his birthday?
Silas had insisted that he do something. And had today been a normal birthday, he probably wouldn't have cared much.
But because it was a special day, he agreed to have a small celebration, just him and her.
And with that in mind, he called the two maids.
"Today is my birthday, so I plan to spend it alone with Silas. You don't mind that, right?" Ellis asked, looking at Grenda with a beaming smile.
A smile that made her face lose color, as she hurriedly nodded and said, "O-of course we don't mind, Your Highness."
