Hollywood Zenith

Chapter 44 Masako



Mai Azumi has been working for the agency for the last five years. She is tasked with cataloguing and observing the young princess' behaviour in public. Every royal member must learn from an early age about the customs and rules they must follow when they appear in public. The teachings start at eight, and it is brutal for female family members. They are from the family who are serving the Imperial family generations.

--Japanese/outsiders never touch the royal family members. In the case of a medical contingency, doctors wear gloves and make sure they follow the norms set by the Imperial Agency.

-- Imperial Family members are not allowed to openly share their preferences.

-- Male members always walk first, with the female members walking behind them. They often get off their cars first, stand aside, and wait for their husbands to get off, and they usually bow to them the moment their husbands alight from their vehicles.

-- Whenever Imperial Family members give interviews on their birthdays or before foreign trips, all questions and answers are "screened" by the IHA. The media should also follow a strict code of conduct.

-- Female members cannot speak longer than their husbands during press conferences.

-- The Empress can't step in the Emperor's shadow, as do the other female members of the Imperial Family, in the case of their husbands.

There are many rules in place; females cannot fight for the throne, though there were previous Empresses; It was abolished by the new law in the late fifties. Mai is always optimistic about the young princess Kako, but she is holding the young boy's hand with sparkling eyes in front of everyone. Everyone is distressed about the development, but Samuel decides to bury the silence.

" Yes, princess, I am the author. It seems like you read the book. Nothing good will come from him mentioning it. " Samuel said, ignoring the princess' hand.

" I have already read it a few times. I also heard about the new picture version of the story, but sadly it is not yet translated to Japanese. I have seen the artwork; It's fascinating." Princess Kako said, strengthening her hold on my hand.

" Princess, it is terrible to touch people without permission. I have emphasized it regularly. It seems like you are not taking your studies seriously. " Mai pointed out in a low voice. She has repeatedly reminded the princess of different rules before their visit to the palace.

Kako hurriedly realized her mistake and freed Samuel's hand; she was embarrassed about her behaviour. How can she hold a stranger's hand? It is unbecoming of royalty, especially for a female member, to be like this. Her cheeks reddened as she stared at the floor. Sensing the significant change, Crown Princess Masako interjected.

" Please, don't mind my niece. She likes to read a lot, and her favourite topic is 'Hobbit'. She just got excited to meet the author."

" It is okay. It is my honour that her Highness is interested in my work. So, you don't have to mind because I don't mind it. " I know their rule and tried to de-escalate the situation by being carefree.

" And I am expanding my works with a new story connected to Hobbit. So, you can look forward to it. " I added.

" Really? I am excited. " Princess Kako chirped, which eased the tension in the air.

I nodded and turned toward Princess Masako and said--

" Now, about our earlier talk, your eating preference. I have read that these are the common signs that are seen in pregnant women. You might want to go see a doctor confirm it. Early detection is always good for these things. "

It was blunt and to the point. I just have to plant an idea.

Masako is dumbfounded; It was only recently when she and her husband planned to have a baby, but she never thought her body was showing pregnancy symptoms.

Her entourage was shocked to hear my explanation too, which gave me a few seconds for the next phase.

I activated a few titles and started the life force. It is invisible to the naked eyes, but I could see it directly; I focused on forming a small sphere and directed it toward her abdomen, focusing on the fetus. The force entered her stomach and got absorbed by the baby. It is very early, but I cannot take any chances.

" Are you sure? " She asked in an inquiring tone.

" I am sure about what I read, but I cannot verify its validity. You have to consult a doctor for further proof. " I deflected from a specific answer.

" Princess, we have to investigate as soon as possible. It is an important matter. We have to leave. " Mai said. As the leader of this foreign visit, she has to take the lead.

I nodded and said to Oscar. " Oscar, Please see to it and assist her Highness with her requirement. Your Highness, you can consult Oscar and David for any conditions. "

She nodded, and everyone started moving. Princess Kako is clueless about the whole situation but decides to follow her aunt and other delegates.

"Samuel-sama, I forgot to wish you. Happy birthday. It was nice meeting you. I will be waiting for your next book. " Princess Kako said.

" Yes, Samuel; I am afraid we have to cut our meeting short. We have to confirm with you them. We will welcome you if you ever visit Japan. " Princess Masako said.

"It is okay. Please take care Crown Princess and Princess Kako. It was nice meeting you as well. I will inform you if I ever plan a visit and Princess Kako; please look forward to my next project. I promise you will not be disappointed. " I said and bowed slightly.

They nodded and left with Oscar in the lead.

The party is in full swing, and everyone enjoys the food and drinks. Several others also came to congratulate me, which helped me further my connections. A few hours passed as people began to leave when a butler came to inform me that I had been summoned.

I remembered my short conversation with the Queen. I guess It's finally time to meet my aunt from royalty.
