When Falden saw that the communication tool’s light was off, he disappointedly shut his mouth.
Serdel, who he hasn’t seen in a long time, is still small and arrogant.
He was thrilled to think that she would go to the palace and do business with the emperor for some reason.
He doesn’t know how she got the Lord of the Wizard Tower out of the tower, but he was able to fill the most important positions with his people because of her.
When he heard about this from the subordinate planted in the Imperial palace, he was emotional.
It was Falden, who had lived as if he had been kicked out of the palace since he was young.
His status didn’t protect him on the battlefield.
If anything, nobody cared about the fallen prince. Therefore, even if the opponent was a soldier, he had to try hard to win favor.
The process of getting the current subordinates was intense.
At first, no one tried to reach out to him.
Serdel was the first and only one.
The first feeling he had was gratitude.
People had betrayed him so many times in the past, so he kept treating her like a test—.
But she opened the way for him.
Come to think of it, even when they moved together during the expedition, she didn’t turn away at the most important moment and gave the most help.
She has no idea how helpful it was.
But then he couldn’t help but be shocked by the news that followed her because of how she was.
That’s because the Young Lady, who the Emperor invited to an audience at the Imperial Palace, was assaulted!
For a moment, he doubted his ears.
He couldn’t believe it. Is that Serdel?
At first, he was dumbfounded, then he laughed because it was so ridiculous, and in the end, he was angry.
It also brought up memories of the abuse he received from the Empress as a child.
Anger boiled over when he remembered how powerless he was and the fragile woman.
When their comrades at the palace told Addis and Redan about this, none of them became angry.
He probably would have too if her brothers and sisters hadn’t gone crazy in the enemy camp.
“Damn, I shouldn’t have asked you if you’re okay.”
It must be something she doesn’t want to remember. When he looked back, he was afraid that he had hurt her again.
Ha. After wiping his face nervously and sighing, everyone was looking at him when he left the study.
In particular, Addis and Redan quickly pulled their faces away, as if they were listening to the door.
After feeling embarrassed for a moment, Addis started to get angry.
“It’s been a while since I’ve communicated with my sister. Why are you interrupting me? This is beyond your power!”
Redan eagerly nodded next to her and said that she was right.
“What exactly both of you talking about—”
“Didn’t the Young Lady say that before? She’s an adult. Aren’t you treating Young Lady like children too much?”
Addis’s mouth closed.
On the other hand, Redan made sullen answers,
“…I couldn’t even treat her like a child when she was a kid. I don’t want to regret it now, so I’m trying to get closer before it’s too late. What’s wrong with it?”
“It’s good to be close, but it’s not the right way. Have you ever thought that the Young Lady would feel uncomfortable? It’s nice to care about and think about your younger sister, but the two of them tend to push too hard. From the point of view of accepting it, that is neither considerate nor anything else.”
Instead, it was just like any other violent act because she had to force herself to understand the other person’s point of view.
However, Falden didn’t speak until that point. More than that is really too much, and it’s the same as using violence against the two of them.
Instead, he took a look around
“Besides that, shouldn’t the two of you be more concerned about the castle and the estate? Didn’t you feel it when you came in? The expression on the faces of the officials, the lighter atmosphere.”
Falden thought it was strange that they were so excited about the new business in front of him.
“A new well attracts flies. In the capital, the Young Lady is doing her best to protect her family despite all the bad things. This is not the time for the both of you to relax and worry about your younger sister.”
Redan’s face hardened at his sharp criticism.
“You shouldn’t get in the way of the path that the Young Lady has made, right?”
When Addis and Redan finally looked up, they quickly went through the castle.
Certainly, the atmosphere flowing from everywhere was different from before.
Damon walked up to Falden, who was about to look away when he saw the two people’s eyes change.
“I think I need to use some communication tools too.”
He held out his hand with an indifferent look on his face.
Falden hesitated for a moment, then gave the tool to the man and left.
Is he trying to contact the Marquis?
Or is he trying to contact Serdel separately? He felt kind of bad because he felt especially close to her.
Damon, who he had only thought of as an inexperienced person, showed a figure that was daring and brave after one failure.
He didn’t have strong powers, but he covered all his weaknesses with a good brain.
As he fought, his eyes became sharper, his judgment was as fast as a sword, and he gave his subordinates only accurate orders without any errors in judgment.
Perhaps he will have a bigger status in the family starting from this time.
Maybe he’ll push his two brothers down and go straight up to the Marquis—.
“Is the Young Lady doing okay?”
Falden, lost in thought, turned his head. Belters were standing next to him.
“Didn’t you see something good before?”
“Yes, but— well, no.”
“What is this?? What are you curious about?”
“It’s nothing, we’ll meet when we get to the capital anyway.”
“…Why is the Duke meeting Young Lady?”
He has a relaxed expression and seems to be contemplating something with his chin raised.
It was terribly annoying.
“It can be happen.”
“What’s the matter? You’ve never talked to Young Lady before, have you?”
“There is. Pretty dramatic.”
Falden’s eyes darkened. He thought there was nothing big going on between Serdel and Belters.
“Don’t joke around.”
Belters shrugged instead of answering.
At that, Falden’s fist tightened.
His stomach was boiling.

Cartal reported to the imperial family that the subjugation of the Elbash Forest was successfully completed, and at the same time, he had a related article published in the newspaper.
No matter what side they were on, the nobles sent invitations to Count Robbesta to say congratulations.
Some people even wrote to Ledan and Serdel to ask if they were planning to get married.
When Addis entered the Imperial Knights, she said that she had no plans to get married, even though she was the heir to the family.
So, even though it was hard to go after her directly, Count Robbesta had Serdel, whose engagement had just broke, and Redan, who had to leave the house and could not decide on marriage.
There were a lot of people who wanted him, especially because if they got married to Redan and had a child, they could adopt it as Addis’ successor.
Everyone was wasting their time because Cartal had not yet said who would be his successor.
“First, return all the invitations.I have no interest in engaging with those people.”
Serdel pushed the invitations in front of her with her hands.
There was sure to be a big difference between going to this event as a Young Lady and going in the future as a successor.
The butler said he thought it would, and he took the papers with him.
Soon, the communication tool burst into light, and Edwan came.
[The merchant is ready to open. The day after tomorrow, we will officially open it.]
He showed him a video he had taken of the inside of the store.
“You organized it well.”
Edwan blushed at the brief compliment. Rudella, who was standing next to him, also blushed and liked it.
[Oh, and Ashley Rovello, who you told me to look into before. I think you need to give me a little more time.]
Serdel nodded.
She didn’t think he could gather information right away.
The documents that Dell brought from Count Maient also only had his names written next to Count Deriens.
There was nothing special about it.
“Okay.”
[Yes, then I will contact you the day after tomorrow.]
After finishing the communication, Serdel lowered her head to focus on the document again.
However, Monem came in with a knock and great timing.
She thought she had brought tea, so she was going to tell her to put it next to her—.
“Lady. A person has arrived from Count Maient. I think you should go out and see.”
Serdel put down her fountain pen when the tension in her low and heavy voice.
Monem’s expression was also serious.
Eventually, she got up from her seat and went out.
Cartal, who came out first, had a cold expression on his face.
Serdel’s gaze turned to the other side.
The knights of Count Robbesta, who had been oppressing Count Maient for some time, were surprised to see a familiar person standing in front of them while random strangers restrained him.
One of the strangers, who seemed to be the representative, walked out.
“I’m meeting the Head of Count Robbesta. My name is Carlon Maient, and I’m the new head of the Count Maient.”
It was Hershe Maient’s half-brother.
She had heard that he was going to come up to the capital when he had successfully assimilated all of the territory’s power with the assistance of his followers, but she didn’t know he would arrive so soon.
As he beckoned, the captive figure was dragged out.
It was Hershe, who was once the head of Count Maient and Serdel’s fiancée.
“Kneel down.”
At Carlon’s cool command, the knights hit Hershe’s leg and forced him to kneel.
Then he pressed it with his hand and forced his head to the floor.
The look was terrible.
“I want to express my deepest apologies to Count Robbesta for the irreparable harm that our former head of family caused you.”
Carlon also bowed his head.
And over their heads–.
[Hershe Maient, one of the supporting actors, loses more than 90% of his presence and is demoted to an extra.]
The worst death sentence for a character was dropped.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
