Episode 13.

". . . Your Highness?"

For a while, they silently locked eyes.

After hearing Aisha's voice, Hades snapped out of his daze.

"Ah!"

Startled, he leaned back and caused a commotion.

Aisha grabbed Hades' arm tightly.

Although she wasn't going to fall over, it felt like her arm was burning near the grip for some reason, which made Hades flustered.

"Hush."

But Aisha remained calm.

As if telling him not to make a fuss, she narrowed her eyes and pressed her index finger against her lips, leaving Hades bewildered.

Aisha cautiously turned her head and looked down at the sleeping Abel.

Fortunately, he was still asleep.

Aisha stifled her laughter, as if saying that Abel looked so cute she could die.

Hades stared intently at her for a while.

"I'm going out."

Aisha said, getting up and speaking with her mouth.

After standing up, Aisha felt that her shoulders were quite heavy. It seemed that Hades had covered her with unfamiliar clothes.

As Aisha stepped outside, she turned around and handed Hades his clothes. "Thank you."

"Did Abel ask you to stay by his side? It must have been uncomfortable, but you politely declined and went back to your room."

Hades sighed and accepted the clothes Aisha offered.

I'm already sorry, but I guess I'll just have to keep feeling sorry. . .

However, Aisha nodded without any sign of annoyance.

"No. I said I would stay. It wasn't uncomfortable at all."

". . . . . ."

Aisha, who was smiling bashfully, seemed to have completely forgotten what happened at the restaurant with Egeosa.

Hades hesitated for a moment and spoke.

"Um. . . I apologize for the Countess's rude behavior towards you. Of course, I told her to apologize to you directly."

"Huh? Why should Your Highness apologize? And there's no need for the Countess to apologize either. I wasn't that upset."

"How can you not be upset?"

"Ah, um. . ."

After Aisha seemed to think for a moment, she touched her braid and said.

"To be honest, I wasn't completely upset. . . but I understand. The Countess values her honor. I heard she received education as a successor."

"Is that so."

"If the Countess had become a Duchess, she would have chosen her marriage partner and successor for the sake of the family's honor. People have different values they believe to be right, and we should acknowledge that."

Hades listened quietly to Aisha's following words, narrowing his eyes.

Is it possible to have such thoughts even after hearing such insulting words?

He wondered, holding such doubts. "Unfortunately, due to the system of this country, you have inherited the title of Duke, but that doesn't mean I can instantly remove the affection poured by the Viscountess into the family."
