    "Countess Millen? Just now, in what sense do you mean me……"

    Unusually, he muffled his lips and furrowed his brow. Perhaps he thought he heard it wrong. However, Sarah's face was more serious than ever.

    "To be exact, I need the time of Duke Ethan Ambrosia. Once a week, about three hours would be nice."

    “I'm sorry, but since His Majesty announced that he will abdicate, the movement of the nobles has been unusual. At this point, I cannot separate the time."

    "You swore, right? If there is anything I need, you will prepare it for me."

    "Is all you really need is my time?"

    "Yes."

    There was still a smile on Sarah's lips.

    "......"

    Ethan thought, rubbing his throbbing forehead.

    The current Emperor, Kylos de Crombell, turned 80 this year. He was one of the most long-lived emperors, and he wielded such a powerful imperial power. Then he declared that he now wanted to step down from the throne and live in a garden.

    In fact, this wasn't something Ethan Ambrosia would be busy with. Unfortunately, however, the Emperor did not designate any of the three princes as heirs, and he had no choice but to step forward.

    The nobles were already divided into three factions, continuing a fierce struggle for succession. In the midst of the typhoon's vortex, only the Duke of Ambrosia was in balance, unbiased by anyone. As the center of the Empire, he kept his neutrality, so the nobles also noticed and did not cross the line. But it would soon reach its limit.

    'My head hurts.'

    Ethan Ambrosia looked at Claude, who was calmly in Sarah's arms. Sarah Millen was absolutely necessary for that child because the curse coming down to Ambrosia was gradually taking roots in the child's body.

    The only people who could control that power were the magicians who could use magic. It was possible because the power of Ambrosia was similar to magic at first glance.

    'There will come a day when you will need my strength. I am sending an artifact to prove it and send it to Deline’s side. Until then, please take good care of Deline and the child.'

    Ethan smoothed the ring on his index finger, recalling the letter he received from Sarah six years ago. It was an artifact that he received with the letter. This artifact was the only thing that allowed him to control the power that was raging and fluctuating inside him. For the first time in all his life, he felt liberated from the power of the family.

    "Will it be difficult?"

    "......"

    That was why he couldn't refuse Sarah's offer. It was a terrible power that could not be controlled even by family heirlooms passed down from generation to generation. Ethan Ambrosia's father, the previous Duke, was also engulfed by this power and ran wild and died.

    'I need her for Claude's sake.’

    Not long ago, the power of Ambrosia was manifested in the child's body. In addition, Ethan's power, which he had controlled with artifacts, began to seep again as if resonating with that power.

    The ring sent by Sarah Millen gradually lost its power, and since Claude’s curse had also been manifested, Ethan had no choice but to lose patience.
