If you're going to eavesdrop, do it from the very beginning.

Yet another misunderstanding! Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

even if u hear the whole convo lol i would be kinda traumatized if my parents said that

let us not to forget : they are practically adults, so they should make their own deduction of the informations !!! but it seems the author is simply ignoring sometimes this fact and pressuring the "little kids" image.

yeah true.. but lets not forget they don't know a lot about the emperor who abandoned them for 5 years and suddenly appears. so after hearing that..

True, but everything is based on speculation. We dont know why the emperor wasnt with them during those 5 years. Its implied and stated that there was a contract. We dont know if it was out right abandonment.
