Of course, I did feel sorry for hurting an unrelated woman. He usually chose silence rather than acting like that at official gatherings, but this time he was angry too.
‘There may be an opportunity to apologize someday. Hmm. What was her name? I can’t remember her face either…’
I could only hope that my parents had handled the situation well.
Seeing the irritated look on Eric’s face, William chuckled and then finally changed the topic.
“Did you finish the report?”
“Yes, it’s done.”
“Later than expected?”
“The Emperor’s schedule was extended.”
“Well, since you’re already late, have a drink before you leave.”
“Here?”
“Where else? If I leave the palace, it causes trouble? Do you want to go out for a drink with attendants following you?”
“……”
“Of course, with you there, it won’t be a problem even if a fight breaks out.”
“Do you think a fight will definitely occur?”
“It’s common. If you get drunk, you can get into an argument, and that can lead to a fight.”
“Your Highness seems a bit bored these days, but it’ll be a big problem if you fight with a civilian.”
“I have the prince watching my back. What’s the problem?”
“So, you’re saying we should get involved in a fight?”
“What are you talking about? In times of peace like now, we need to make good use of a skilled knight like you. How much is your salary?”
As William said, the continent has recently been peaceful.
The last conflict with Valua Empire, once called our rival, was over a year ago, and it had been 10 years since a magician caused an incident or a monster last appeared.
So, even Eric, the Knight Commander, has been stationed in the capital for nearly a year, with almost no disputes requiring his departure.
“But I don’t know why I’m busier. It would be better to go to the border.”
“Hehe. Indeed, you’ve been busy with social engagements this past year.”
Looking at William laughing, Eric finally closed his mouth.
“So, are you dissatisfied because it’s a time of peace?”
“What are you talking about? As a knight protecting the Empire and its citizens, of course I should be happy.”
“That’s what I’m saying. As the Knight Commander who has to protect the citizens of the Empire, why do you act so badly towards the women who are also citizens?”
“……”
Eric shut his mouth as it seemed like he was being teased.
“Phew, boring.”
Knowing that Eric’s reaction meant he wouldn’t retort anymore, William also sighed and dropped his hand from Eric’s shoulder.
The two were friends from the military academy, and despite being a prince and his servant, they had a casual relationship.
And thanks to being a prince, he was the only one who could talk freely to Eric.
“I’ve changed my mind. Let’s go for the salon’s special brandy.”
“Just now, you didn’t want to go with the attendants?”
“I don’t want to spend the free time I’ve got for the first time in a while in the palace. Besides, nothing will happen if you’re there. Let’s go out secretly.”
“……”
“Not going to manage your expression?”
“Oh, did it show?”
William chuckled at Eric’s attempt to deflect his question.
“Drinking till death?”
“Do it alone. I will watch.”
“Sometimes you say things that hurt without batting an eye, don’t you?”
“You’re already aware of the rumor, and yet you’re wounded. That can’t be.”
“Have you forgotten that I am the Emperor now?”
“That’s absurd. Aren’t I enduring whatever you say, Your Imperial Majesty?”
“Anyway, you won’t budge an inch.”
“Ah, do I just need to yield? I never knew you lacked selfesteem to such an extent.”
“Let’s stop, just stop.”
In the end, the Emperor raised both his hands.
In the VIP Salon office, Alicia flipped over the last page of the document.
“Good. This ends here.”
After tidying up her desk and checking the clock, she stood up from her seat. All that was left was to hand over the final copy to the Madam and explain it.
“It seems like I’ll be late. I need to hurry.”
As soon as she opened the door, someone almost bumped into her, gripping the opened door.
“Ah, I apologize.”
“No, it’s okay.”
Eric casually let go of the door he had held and resumed walking with William.
Since he was the Emperor, he often used the back route where the employees walked to move around quietly, but because the hallway was narrow, this happened from time to time.
“Oh, quick reflexes. You’re worth the salary.”
“……”
Alicia stepped out into the corridor quickly to apologize properly, but the two had already moved away. Unable to do anything, she gave up and moved towards the Madam’s office.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]The meeting with the Madam ran longer than expected, so as soon as it ended, she rushed out to catch her carriage.
“Miss Alicia Lancaster. I’ve been waiting for you.”
“Who are you?”
A strange man approached and spoke.
“I am Richard from the Duke of Kellun’s family.”
“Ah, yes. But what brings you here?”
She remembered the Madam mentioning a similar name.
She was sure that she had rejected him, but she hadn’t expected him to show up in person.
She sighed internally, sensing the hassle that was about to ensue.
“Well, you must have been surprised by my sudden visit, but I have something I really wanted to say.”
“I believe you’ve already conveyed your message through the Madam and you’ve received my response.”
“Well, yes, but I thought that I needed to see you in person and talk to you to properly convey.”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think my mind is going to change.”
“Lady Alicia.”
“I don’t have anything more to say, so I’ll excuse myself. I need to go.”
“Then let me escort you home.”
“That won’t be necessary. Goodbye.”
Alicia firmly declined with a resolute voice and turned around to get into the carriage.
“Ah.”
Her arm was grabbed and she was quickly pulled down from the carriage.
