Those in Chalea now had to choose one of two options. Whether it was the money of the Eastern nobles infiltrated throughout the Persian Empire or the Emperor who had cleanly cleaned the spider-webbed throne.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Those in the palace had already made their choice. Now, even the police chief had to make a choice.
After Commander Luquette left the Emperor’s office with a heavy heart, Hayden heard the words of the courtier who quietly approached.
“Cabinet Noir is waiting with a mission, Your Majesty.”
Cabinet Blue was leaving, and Noir was coming. They all had to be loyal servants of Emperor, a majestic figure.
“Bring them in.”
Hayden gestured quietly.
Today, the Emperor had a lot to do. He had to hurry. Only then could he find time to leisurely go to the Glera Palace, climb up to Rua, and indulge in a charming face.
Deep down, she was a knight, and she had been through so much that she needed to whisper and comfort her, saying anything would be fine.
[Star Icon]Rua habitually bought the items she used.
No matter how you look at it, all these items brought into Glera Palace are the ones provided by the palace. From a horsehair brush and hand mirror set to clothes, shoes, and accessories, including underwear and stockings, as well as moisturizers for the face and food for consumption, it was all there.
In other words, it meant that she would leave the palace without anything.
“…I really don’t have anything to take with me.”
“Where are you going?”
Even though it was a very quietly murmured remark, Hayden, who entered the bedroom, which felt vast to the point of being endless, did not miss the words and responded.
“Where do you think you’re going, leaving me again?”
Where should I even start pointing this out? Lu had written on her face, “Your Majesty should not enter the room without permission,” but she just bowed her head instead of saying it out loud to the Chief Lady-in-Waiting of Glera Palace, who seemed too reluctant to speak.
“Your Majesty, have you come?”
Bending her waist and bowing deeply is something the recipient should do, and so she greeted him briefly out of formality.
“I came, and I heard strange sounds now.”
Set aside greetings and just respond.
“Where are you going, Lu?”
Calling her by her name rather than ‘Your Grace’ meant that Hayden was feeling anxious. He didn’t seem to like the assumption that Lu would disappear from his sight, but Lu couldn’t understand why.
“I have to go home too, Your Majesty.”
Exactly! Today, the maids of Glera Palace who lined up behind the Emperor cheered for Lu again. There were hardly any people in the palace who would openly speak to the Emperor like that.
“Why?”
“If you know, don’t pretend you don’t.”
“No, I really don’t know. Why does Your Grace have to go home?”
“Well, because this isn’t my house.”
To be more specific, Rustica Genus was the only problem child in the entire empire who treated the Emperor like an unruly child.
“Outside is dangerous, I told you.”
“Just because it’s dangerous doesn’t mean I can live in the palace forever. I’m an official outsider; the longer I stay, the more rumors will spread.”
“Why is Your Grace an outsider?”
“Because I am an outsider.”
Lu kindly answered the obvious story once again, and she was no longer interested in Hayden. No, she deliberately blocked her interest. Even if he hadn’t rescued her from Carlos, she wouldn’t have paid more attention. Let’s not look at him for now. The Emperor’s face was so fatal that she would have been mesmerized even if she hadn’t been drunk.
No matter how you think about it, I shouldn’t have been attracted to that face back then. No, if I saw such a handsome man in that rural corner, I should have just tangled with him! When will I get tangled with a handsome man in this tough life? Of course, now I’m properly tangled, but now I have to cut it off.
This life doesn’t go the way I want it to. Just living with a handsome man who listens well would have been allowed for Lu.
Whose fault is this? It’s undoubtedly the fault of that cowardly loser sitting behind the walls of Calleta. As she thought about it, Lu felt a sudden surge of anger in her head.
“Why, again. What’s going on?”
Hayden, gesturing for the maids to leave, knelt down and looked up at her. It was a simple posture, but one that an emperor would never do.
“Tell me. Why are you so upset?”
“Upset… nothing happened to be upset about.”
Rather than answering, Lu found it strange that he was asking such a question and raised her head while putting her hand on her cheek. Upset? There was nothing to be upset about. She always endured the same, with Carlos being a jerk and her just trying to survive, protect her family, and seek revenge. There was nothing particularly different.
“Okay.”
Hayden, who had been silently staring at her, nodded his head.
“I understand.”
Green eyes are always filled with emotion, whether sadness or anger. That’s the power that drives Rustica Genus.

Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
