“But why are you curious about that?”
A smile of puzzlement was drawn over Boris’s face.
“Wouldn’t anyone be curious if it’s about a knight?”
Cedric’s light voice.
“Well, I was curious too.”
The man who had guarded the position of Chief of Security for ten years nodded in agreement.
“It seems that the king has already made up his mind.”
“Heter Calypso, Duke, are you talking about him?”
“Did you also know?”
“Yes.”
Cedric, pushing up his reddish bangs, spoke again.
“But I heard there are many opposing forces.”
“Opposition has been there since Duke Calypso received the title.”
Boris Black replied nonchalantly.
It seemed obvious that Heter would take over the position of Chief of Security despite the opposition.
The chief’s gaze briefly touched Cedric, who maintained a composed expression.
“If Heter Calypso Duke takes the position of Chief of Security, wouldn’t that be a good thing for you?”
“Is that because he’s my wife’s father?”
“That’s right.”
After a moment of contemplation, Cedric opened his mouth.
“The instances of someone stabbing you in the back will likely increase as well.”
A change occurred in Boris’s consistently calm expression.
Seizing that moment, Cedric’s sharp eyes gleamed.
A man who had been commanding the kingdom’s wars for over ten years.
Cedric was convinced that handing over the position to a war hero who once fought against the kingdom’s enemies and had come over from the opposing side would be uneasy.
“He is not only my wife’s father but also a knight of the enemy country I once pointed my sword at.”
“…”
“A knight who swore allegiance to the royal family, risked his life, and protected the kingdom. Anyone would oppose giving the power of security command to such a knight.”
“Do you feel the same way?”
The eyes filled with suspicion slowly turned around the face.
“Is Chief Black doubting my loyalty?”
A subtle smile appeared on the man’s face, who had been staring as if frozen.
There was no room for doubt about Cedric’s loyalty, even if others might not know it.
“Why come suddenly and talk about this?”
Boris’s expression, which was about to get to the point, became serious.
Cedric, with a smile tinged with clarity, slowly spoke.
“Please attend the upcoming Knight Commander meeting at the palace.”
In a situation where an important meeting attended by the king occurred once a year.
“At that meeting, you can transfer the voting rights on security governance to the Knight Commanders.”
“Transfer the voting rights?”
Cedric nodded as he looked at the man with a furrowed brow.
Authority possessed only by leaders of all organizations within the royal family.
It was a designated law allowing those who were considered to be able to make the most objective judgments in situations of important decisions to hand over the decision-making power.
It was a device to prevent the king’s arbitrary rule, but no one had ever used it.
Using it carelessly would risk being out of the king’s favor.
“Would the king be pleased with that?”
While voicing concerns as Boris expected, Cedric had a subtle expression on his face.
“The king is already aware that there is a lot of opposition to Duke Calypso.”
“That’s true.”
“Black Chief, are you suspecting my loyalty?”
A faint smile appeared on the man’s face, who was watching as if frozen.
The conclusion was that no one would easily step forward to replace Calypso Duke.
The man who had straightly met Cedric’s eyes slowly opened his mouth.
“Why are you looking for someone far away?”
At that moment, the bluer-than-ever eyes emitted a clear light.
“I’m right here in front of Chief Black like this.”
The firm voice swallowed the surrounding air.
One side of the man’s eyes, which had been silently gazing, subtly twitched.
“Are you the one?”
“Do you have any issues?”
In response to Cedric’s somewhat arrogant question, a subtle smile appeared on the man’s lips.
“Count, you returned home early today.”
As soon as he entered the mansion, Cedric halted his steps at Roberto’s greeting.
Come to think of it, he couldn’t recall returning home at sunrise recently.
“Where is Lamein?”
“She’s in the rear garden.”
“The rear garden?”
“Yes.”
Is she taking a walk in the rear garden? Even after the Rose Garden incident, she rarely set foot there.
“I’ll go meet Lamein.”
“Yes, I’ll accompany you.”
“No, you take care of your business. I’ll go alone.”
Rejecting Roberto’s intention to follow, Cedric turned his steps to meet his wife.
In the cozy breeze, the leaves and petals danced in the beautifully arranged garden.
Despite the peaceful atmosphere filling the space, Cedric’s expression remained stiff.
‘Cedric, I didn’t know you were ambitious for the Head of Security position. Well, there’s nothing as important as honor for a courageous knight.’
He recalled the words the commander had said while looking at him admiringly.
It wasn’t that he was particularly ambitious for the position or coveted honor.
Just at the moment.
‘I don’t know how things will turn out once Heter seizes power.’
He was sure that giving wings to the cruel and ruthless man could lead to disaster.
The one with security governance would become one of the top authorities within the royal family.
In other words, the person holding it would be someone who could easily take care of any problem with the wave of a hand.
While he didn’t want to entertain the ominous thought that Lamein would be the first target, he had to admit the reality.
Lost in thought, the air felt suffocating.
“Phew…”
He released a long sigh as if shaking off his conscience and raised his head.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the rear garden, he had to admit it was beautiful.
The peaceful atmosphere, with the wind gently blowing, made leaves and flower petals dance.
His gaze, however, was unyielding, unlike the serene surroundings.
‘Where is she?’
As he stood still, scanning the rear garden once again.
“Just a moment. I’m scared,”
Somewhere, Lamein’s voice faintly reached him.
…What? Scared?
Cedric’s head, momentarily gripped with fear, turned sharply as if a sharp blade, cutting through the air.
The knight training ground, which was covered by a large tree, with only half of it visible.
“Move your body gently back and forth.”
“Am I doing it right? Hehe.”
“A bit more. Tighten your waist a bit more with your legs.”
“Oh… It’s strange. Wait a moment!”
A warm conversation echoing through the sunny midday garden.
What on earth is this… Could it be?
The deep blue eyes that had firmly settled since birth were now the most violently agitated.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
