Chapter 261: Initial History (3)
Arren’s interest in his crush, the emperor, made him more curious about the state of the empire. Well, at least he wanted to know more about the emperor the most rather than the empire.
When he came home a few days later, he began to search for any interviews or even photos of the emperor. However, he found out that the new Emperor didn’t have many public interviews yet, and some of the speeches were formal events where the media couldn’t easily access them.
There were also a pitiful number of photos circulating on the internet, and Arren was unable to find more. It did make sense; after all, the monarch was a figure everyone respected in the empire and not some kind of normal celebrity.
Afterward, Arren also began to search for any rumors, like dating rumors around the emperor. Similarly, he didn’t find any. Some were just speculations from the general public, such as who was fit to be an empress based on popularity, status, or even appearance.
That was normal, as the rumors about the nobilities weren’t that different from celebrity rumors.
Like that, days passed. Arren still maintained his overall day-to-day life while also having another hobby, being updated on the recent public schedule of the emperor. It wasn’t much, though, but it was enough for the current him.
Of course, Arren wasn’t an ordinary ’celebrity chaser’ either; he had the status and connection to meet the one he admired. He was too thankful for this.
"Do you want to come with me to the palace?" The Duke inquired with a bit of disbelief in his tone.
"Yes, Dad. I want to visit the palace," Arren answered with a smile. Of course, his intention was only known to him.
"But it’s summer vacation."
"I know, Dad. I don’t have plans to take a vacation." Arren already declined his friends. What was more important than seeing his crush? He could take a vacation whenever he wanted to anyway.
