“To ensure Hades’ peace of mind, just as one uses multiple locks and guards when storing goods in a warehouse.”
“Latifa is not merchandise.”
Luhan spoke, displeased.
“Hades has already designated her as his property, and I am merely respecting his wishes, my son.”
“With Karina already there, why not send her to Hagunu of the same Caleb lineage…”
As Luhan continued to voice his disappointment, Rashid held up his palm to stop him.
“Hades, I’ll give you a onemonth grace period. I’ll monitor your behavior for a month, then decide if your frau can return to you. I’ll entrust everything to Karina.”
Upon hearing this, Hades’ fists clenched, but he suppressed it and spoke to the Sultan.
“You imposed such a punishment, knowing that I despise the harem? I am purely amazed by your wisdom.”
“Hades, don’t look at the tree; see the forest. Now, I have to console Eiota. Don’t you two have different places to go?”
Rashid chuckled, patting Luhan’s shoulder, and then gracefully left the reception hall.
[Star Icon][Star Icon]After leaving the reception hall, Luhan and Hades slowly walked along the symmetrical, beautifully curved, archshaped corridor.
It was a pleasant night air, slightly chilly, tickling their hair. However, they walked that path without saying a word.
“Tonight, the moonlight is weak.”
Hades, who had remained silent, was the first to casually speak to Luhan.
Luhan briefly looked up at the sky.
Indeed, a faint crescent moon was there, and even that was obscured by a thick layer of clouds. It was hardly a good view.
“Indeed.”
“Luhan, the Sultan clearly loves you.”
“…You think so?”
“I realized that when he said, ‘Don’t look at the tree; see the forest.'”
“Mm.”
“I sent Latifa to Karina, who is closer to neutral, neither siding with you nor Tarek. It probably means to win her over to your side if she is to become a sultan in the future.”
“……Then I must succeed.”
Luhan replied with a faint smile.
“I will succeed, no question about it. I don’t even need a month. I’ll get my Frau out of here as quickly as possible.”
Was Hades’ resolute voice a vow to himself?
Or a warning to another burly man standing next to him?
“……Okay.”
What more could Luhan say at this point?
Thud, thud. The two men walking along the corridor soon reached a dead end.
The path bending to the left led to the royal ward where Latifa lay, and the one bending to the right led to the palace’s main exit.
“Wait.”
Hades, intending to turn left, grabbed one arm of Luhan and handed him one of the gold bracelets jingling around his wrist.
It was one of the symbols given to Hades by the sultan in the past, which Hades had given to Latifa and later gotten back from Manut.
“What’s this all of a sudden?”
“Give this to that foolish woman. Tell her to wear it on her wrist.”
Returning to his usual self, Hades spoke in a bantering tone, to which Luhan briefly wore a dumbfounded expression.
“Aren’t you going to see her? She will be moved to the harem palace tomorrow. You won’t be able to see her freely after that.”
The area of the harem palace in the south was a place only the sultan could enter. Men could only enter up to the fourth of the seven gates, and even that was restricted to the gatekeepers.
“What’s the point of seeing her now? She’ll just be lying there with her eyes closed like a corpse. Besides, the doctors will be watching. There’s nothing ‘special’ I could do, so it’s no fun at all.”
When saying ‘special,’ Hades flicked his lips with his index finger, showing a slightly playful expression.
Luhan averted his eyes in slight embarrassment.
“She is my Frau. So, I have to label her as mine for everyone in the palace to recognize.”
“What? Label? You’re incomparable when it comes to absurdity.”
Luhan clicked his tongue, as if amazed.
“Luhan, it’s only natural to properly label what is originally mine so it doesn’t get lost. Even a threeyearold knows that, don’t you?”
He laughed heartily and offered a slight bow of formality to Luhan.
“I’ll go ahead, then, Your Highness.”
Hades gave the salute and turned without hesitation toward the right corner of the corridor.
Luhan hurriedly sent off Hades.
“Hades, wait! Take care! Ah… he’s already gone. That guy is always quick on his feet.”
Muttering to himself, Luhan looked at the gold bracelet in his hand.
The Ignite gold bracelet, marred here and there, reflected the years it had spent with him.
Quietly observing it, Luhan soon took out another small bracelet from deep within his pocket.
It was a cute and petite bracelet with a pattern of peonies intricately woven into it.
“……A label.”
A shy pink aura filled Luhan’s brown eyes as a small smile spread across his lips.
Swiftly, he turned toward the left corner of the corridor and quickened his pace.
