If there is someone who blindly loves and follows the lonely loser who always shouts about liking him, it is easy for him to succeed. Lonely people are hungry for affection. Moreover, with unwarranted favor, care, and sincerity pouring down on him, there was no way he could resist it.

“Even though I’m not worthy, I really… Liked you a lot. I thought it was wrong. I’m truly sorry for changing my mind now.”

“If you’re sorry about that, am I just someone who can’t let go? Am I someone with no conscience?”

“I… I also… No, just, I’m sorry and I was wrong. It wasn’t sincere.”

Hayden, looking at Lou who was bowing deeply, asked.
“Why are you bringing this up now?”

“I can’t just let it pass…”

Even if he had rinsed his mouth and passed, he wouldn’t have asked or questioned anything Lou did. He lay down with Lou in his arms.

“Lou, you…”

Ugh. Trapped between his sturdy arms and chest, Lou couldn’t budge an inch.

“You’re too fatal and cunning.”

He sighed.

“If I say that now, you have to say I’m okay no matter what.”

Having spent a long and slow time together from yesterday afternoon until now, the Emperor, who was ready to do anything and everything for Lou, couldn’t even lift his head and apologize.

He had no intention of getting angry from the beginning, and without asking or questioning anything, he would naturally cover it up. In addition, he had to pour more love to somehow make her lift her head, straighten her shoulders, and walk around.

“Did I seem like I was going to get angry? I’m not angry at all. I’m not even disappointed. I understand.”

Of course. The Iron Lady, Milene Genesis, had excellent political sense. She chose to bow her head as a subordinate, and the daughter of a subordinate followed the absolute law of being a subordinate.

“You might regret choosing me.”

“I’ve never regretted anything. Seeing that I’ve never regretted anything so far, there’s no way I’ll regret it.”

“We can’t guarantee the future.”

Hayden quickly changed his posture. Only after Lou fell down did her face unavoidably have to face him.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, Lou.”

The jewel-like green eyes, trying to avoid, finally blocked everything before they could find a place to escape. She had to look at him alone.

“For a very long time, I survived thinking only of you.”

Muscles well-developed into a solid back covered her entirely. Even if someone dared to enter the bedroom right now, they wouldn’t be able to find Lou.

Hayden gently stroked Lou’s face. It was so beautiful that it almost didn’t feel real. Was it because it was a face he always drew in his brief moments of rest?

“I have no choice but you. If I were asked to choose between death and you, of course, it would be you.”

He mumbled, then buried his face in Lou’s embrace.

“I have no regrets. I can’t do such a thing.”

Suddenly, Lou wanted to ask. When did you and I part ways in front of the barrier, and how did you cross the barrier and come to Perseita first?

But she didn’t ask. Just as Hayden waited for her, she would wait for him to tell the story himself. She wanted to do as much for him as she had received so far.

“So, stop apologizing and say something else.”

What else? She asked with her eyes.

“Thank you for waiting.”

“Thank you for waiting.”

It was enough. Hayden hugged Lou tightly again, who was struggling to open her tired eyes.
Since yesterday, she had been quite resentful of him, but he couldn’t stop. The vague anxiety about what to do if this opportunity was missed followed the frenetic pleasure creepily.

“Take a break.”

“The time…”

“It’s enough. Don’t worry and sleep.”

Even in the lingering state of her persistently biting and clinging until morning, he somehow endured to apologize. Eventually, as the tension eased, he began to doze off.

Why does he have so many worries? Hayden urged and soothed Lou, who was trying to adhere to rules and norms obsessively, and put her to sleep.

“It’s okay.”

If the Emperor said he would return late to Chalea, he would return late. Having already postponed the schedule a bit, he looked down at the drowsy Lou.

Was it due to the strict atmosphere of the Kaleta Empire, or was it her innate nature? Or maybe Hayden hasn’t fully demonstrated his power yet?

‘Nevertheless, it’s not possible to say that many events are orchestrated by the country.’

Because one instinctively wants to look clean in front of the person they love, Hayden thoroughly considered various events involving the Emperor’s involvement and Cabinet Noir for Lou.

But he didn’t want Lou, who finally stepped forward and took his hand, to worry about various things.

‘Can’t be helped.’

Being recognized and respected to some extent in the Perecita Empire after becoming a Southern Sage, the act of holding his hand was ultimately Rustica Genesis-style love.

A relatively dignified position where she couldn’t harm Hayden and couldn’t grab his ‘ankle.’

He thought so and burst into laughter. Such feelings, anyway, made him laugh like a crazy person because he was receiving love.

“How can I make you worry less?”
