“He is planning a new hunt, as far as I know.”
“I will allow the new hunt. Take away the black sword.”
“……Yes?”
Serben made a bewildered expression at the unexpected words.
“The Empress fell into the water. I must take responsibility. One month.”
“One, a whole month?”
If Riyan couldn’t wield his sword for a month, he would surely go mad with frustration, turning into a wild beast.
“Can’t you shorten it a little, Your Majesty?”
Serben asked cautiously, but the answer was sharp.
“No.”

“……He will suffer greatly and reflect. Understood.”
Serben could already see that he would be the target of Riyan’s frustration for a painful month.
Serben was already starting to feel distressed as he continued to dress Rascal.
Thud!
“Your Majesty?”
“……”
Rascal suddenly sank to the floor. Thanks to the footstool used for putting on shoes, he didn’t hurt his hip too badly, but it was definitely strange.
“Why are you doing this? Are you hurt somewhere?”
Serben hurried over and grabbed Rascal’s ankle.
“No. I’m not hurt, but…”

He wasn’t injured. Just a moment ago, Rascal was moving without any problems, and his sensitive senses wouldn’t miss an injury.
But both were at a loss for words because Rascal’s hand was shaking.
“Why is this happening?”
Rascal asked, looking at his hand that wouldn’t stop trembling even when he exerted strength.
“That… um… perhaps, the shock of seeing Her Majesty fall into the water is just now affecting you?”
It was common for the shock to come belatedly after suffering a severe injury, such as losing a limb. It was a common occurrence among knights who lived with swords.
“Shock… is that so.”
“Yes. You must have been very startled.”
At those words, Rascal briefly recalled the incident at the waterway.
Cold sweat began to flow as the sound of the Empress falling into the water echoed in his ears over and over. He felt sick to his stomach.

“From now on, nothing can happen to the Empress.”
Rascal clenched his trembling fist and muttered lowly.
“I might lose control of my body.”
“Uh, that… If it’s to that extent, yes. It shouldn’t happen.”
Rascal suddenly looked up.
“From now on, you will be in charge of escorting the Empress.”
“Me?”
Serben pointed to himself with a surprised expression.
“You mean me?”
“Riyan can’t use his sword for a month.”

“No, I am… I am a shadow knight, Your Majesty!”
The ink of the knight’s oath was not yet dry, and it meant that you know well that he had been in charge of His Majesty’s bodyguards.
“So.”
“No, Your Majesty… the emperor and empress are different, so the escort is different, and so…”
“The same. From today.”
Serben strained himself to avoid showing a sad expression.
“No, it’s different. Her Majesty the Empress is your companion and a member of the royal family, but she does not carry on the imperial blood.”
“The same.”
Rascal was firm. There was nothing else that could be an answer.
“When the empress fell into the water, it felt like my heart was breaking. If the empress dies, I would die too. So it’s the same.”
“No, no, that’s… all of a sudden…”

“Protect. As if nothing happened.”
“Then… as you wish.”
Serben bowed his head, overwhelmed by the emperor’s momentum.
In fact, at this point, when Rascal had already decided to be with the empress for twentyfour hours, it seemed meaningless to designate an escort, but there was something else that had to be thought of first.
The empress, she must really be a true companion.
‘Liyan will not like this.’
Serben muttered to himself.
‘Of course, neither do I. If it’s the Empress’s character…’
Her character had clearly shown how much more horrific she would act when she knew the emperor was sincere.
Even now, the empress was living in the palace as she pleased. Luxury was no big deal. She had summoned her unmarried lovers to the imperial palace without hesitation, killed any number of lowborn palace women, and it was quite common for her to bury the nobles she disliked.

She had lived like this even when the emperor showed no affection for her. Now, if she found out that the emperor cherished her as his own life…
‘It’s obvious even if you don’t see it.’
The word ‘horrible’ was an understatement.
Serben bit his teeth slightly and calmed his mind.
‘I must make sure that doesn’t happen. Perhaps it’s a blessing that I’ve become the empress’s escort.’
He had to keep the empress from knowing the emperor’s sincerity.
Then again, the situation seemed daunting.
‘But if he acts like that, even a fool would notice… Really troublesome, this.’
Anyway, he had to try.
He had no intention of letting her know useful information, such as the fact that the empress liked gardenia flowers.

Thump!
He came quickly.
Now, he was getting used to the emperor’s sudden appearance.
“Your Majesty has arrived.”
Fortunately, he had come while she was fully dressed.
The emperor swept his blond hair with a strangely anxious expression.
“I didn’t think it would take this long. I finished my bath quickly, but…”
It sounded like something else had happened, though the bath was finished quickly.
No, it took a long time. He was too fast.

“You know the distance to the imperial palace. You are not late at all.”
His anxious expression brightened slightly.
“Then.”
The emperor sat down very naturally beside her.
The problem was that Rasilia had deliberately sat on a single sofa in anticipation of this, yet the emperor had still perched on the armrest.
Her body naturally stuck close. The golden eyes that looked down at her were clear. As she kept looking, she seemed to get used to that brilliance, and now she could somewhat read his expression.
The emperor pinched the tip of Rasilia’s hair and kissed her.
“I was late because I was shocked by you.”
“Is that so.”
But there was no need to kiss her.

“So I think I’ll have to make an exception until the shock wears off.”
…What are you talking about, really.
