“Why on earth do we have to accommodate a person from Aodin?”
“So that’s why.”
“Well, only I have to do it myself?”
Zena’s eyes, looking at the restaurant where Evenel was, were filled with strong contempt.
They strongly objected to why they had to accommodate, but Emil firmly said it was the Emperor’s command, so they couldn’t dare disobey.
The resentment directed towards Evenel might have been only natural.
She just hated her existence. Being in the same space, breathing the same air.
“Isn’t she shameless? Even bowing her knees wouldn’t be enough, yet she walks around with her head held high.”
“That’s because she’s from Aodin. Where else could that blood go? Besides, she’s from the Istella Ducal family.”
“If it weren’t for the Palace Chief’s command, I would have cursed her to her face.”
Zena could not accept the fact that she had to bow her head to Evenel. It literally hurt her pride.
She wanted to pour out her anger right away.
At that moment, one person caught her eye. Emil had entrusted her to let her know about the work, and, like Evenel, was also a person from Aodin.
‘Her name was Lia, I think.’
Naturally, no one accepted Lia as a fellow colleague. They were already busy whispering as soon as she passed by.
So it was only natural that the hostility towards Evenel would go to Lia.
“So shall we show her a lesson this time?”
At Zena’s chin gesture, the other maids also noticed Lia, and they smiled as if they had planned it. Soon, Zena took the lead and called her.
“Wait a moment there.”
Lia, who was about to go to Evenel, approached Zena and her group at their beckoning.
“Did you call me?”
“Follow me. There’s something you have to do.”
Without a word, she followed them, and in a remote part of the palace, a pile of laundry was stacked.
“Take care of this.”
“All by myself?”
Even at a glance, it was not an amount that one person could handle in a short time.
The maids’ expressions became fierce as Lia gave off a vibe that she couldn’t do it.
“What, you don’t want to do it now?”
“No, it’s not that…”
“You became a maid by chance, right? Can’t you even do this?”
They were proud to be maids working in the Imperial Palace. But it was unacceptable that Lia, who was from Aodin and unqualified, had come in as a colleague.
“If you can’t do this much, you can’t be here. You’re not relying on your master now, are you?”
When they mentioned Evenel, Lia vehemently shook her head.
“No. That’s not it.”
“Then do as I say. Remember? The Palace Chief told you to learn from me.”
When Zena went so far, she could only nod her head.
Furthermore, she wasn’t unaware of the current situation surrounding Evenel. She didn’t want to be a stumbling block, let alone be a help.
“Yes, I’ll do as you say.”
“Good. Oh, come right away when you’re done. There are other tasks piled up.”
So, they left Lia to her task and the maids walked away. Once she was out of sight, they burst into laughter they had been holding back.
“She’s just fit for such a trivial job. Not all maids are the same.”
Even though it wasn’t originally a maid’s job, they forced it upon her. It was certain that her hands would be blistered if not wounded.
Meanwhile, Lia, left alone, bravely rolled up her sleeves.
‘Okay, let’s do this.’
Actually, since guarding Evenel at the Istella Ducal house, such things had been quite common. Her colleagues ignored and ridiculed her just because she was guarding Evenel.
“So this is nothing.”
She ignited her will. If they thought she would run away from a task like this, they were wrong.
(This is a time divider.)
After finishing her meal, Evenel headed to the library in the Imperial Palace that Emil had told her about. She planned to take a brief look before heading to archery practice in the afternoon.
‘It would be more comfortable with fewer watchful eyes.’
Upon arriving at the library Emil had told her about, it was filled with books, enough to be called a small library. Besides, the lighting was good, and the wind circulated well, giving it a cozy feel as well.
The feeling of desolation that was generally felt in the Imperial Palace was far away here.
“This place existed too.”
Evenel looked around the bookshelves carefully.
Among the various subjects like politics, economics, geography, the place where her feet stopped was where the books related to the history of Karies were gathered.
‘History.’
She brushed the cover with her hand and picked up one of the books. The countless criticisms and resentful glances she had received from many people, including Shuher, came to mind.
But she hesitated to open the book. She had some idea of what was written inside.
“It might be better for me not to see it.”
Isn’t ignorance a bliss?
But the moment Shuher’s angry black eyes flashed in her mind, her hand opened the first page of the book.
Evenel read the contents calmly.
The birth and development of Karies, and the first appearance of the demons and how they were empowered were all detailed.
