Why didnt you ask Derrick? He couldve taken you to a guest room, Regis said, looking at Max with a murderous gaze. Although his words were directed at Max, the response ca from his daughter.
It was very late at night, so I felt awkward to tell anyone since the knights had already co by. I also thought he wouldnt harm
since hes your disciple, Father.
Regis sighed softly in response.Actually, hes the most dangerous oneMax used whatever ans as necessary to fulfill his own purposes. In Regis eyes, he was no different from an outrageous tyrant. And judging by his atrocious personality, he wasnt going to think twice about inflicting danger on his daughter once he decided she was useless or beca displeased by her.That child probably doesnt even know that her life is at risk.Nevertheless, Regis couldnt bla his daughter because she had a valid reason for letting him into her room, which was his identity as her fathers disciple.Yes, its probably my fault from the start. I shouldnt have accepted him as my disciplehe thought as he sipped his well-brewed tea. It emanated a pleasant and llow scent, but he could only taste bitterness in his mouth.
Regis soon spoke coldly, criticizing Max for not showing any consideration for Jubelian. That was inappropriate of you, considering her reputation. But the person who responded again was his daughter.
You probably know this already, Father, but I dont care that much about my reputation, she said. Although Regis heart ached at the exaggerated rumors about his daughter, he didnt care much about them either. No matter what other people said, he knew that his daughter was a lovely and kind person. At that mont, Jubelian straightened up and looked straight at Regis. Still, I was extrely careful because I was afraid of causing you any trouble. And nothing actually happened between us. Regis beca taken aback by his daughters eyes, which beca filled with vigor. Im embarrassed to say this, but Ive only been in an one-sided relationship until now, she said. I think its a miracle for soone I like to like
back. Jubelian let out a sigh, then said quietly, Father, you might not trust
because Ive caused all sorts of problems until now, but I will never disgrace our familys prestigious na. So please allow us to date.
Regis had originally planned to say that this was absolutely impossible, but he began to develop a soft spot for his daughter when he heard her desperate pleas.How do you manage to make
so weak like this?She was the apple of his eye. Regis truly wanted to do everything he could for Jubelian, but the problem was the terrible existence she was attached to.
Regis gathered himself and said resolutely, I cant allow you guys to date. End the relationship.

I see. He has already made up his mind to marry
off to the crown prince.I sighed in response. An arranged marriage between the crazy, tyrannical crown prince and the dukes only daughter. Other nobles might have also considered having the prince as their son-in-law, but they would never go as far to make it a reality. However, my father was a transcendent being, so he looked far younger than his actual age. If he wanted to, he could probably get married again and bear a successor in the near future. He could start over any ti he wanted to, so it made sense that he wanted to trade with the royal family rather than give his foolish daughter a fresh start. It was simply a more advantageous choice for him.What do I do now?If I opposed my father, he would certainly force
to get married with the crown prince. I sighed in frustration, hanging my head low, when soone grasped my hand tightly.
I dont want to, a firm voice said. It was unlike my timid personality.Huh?I looked at Max with surprise. He looked back at
before staring angrily at my father. Do rember that ti you lectured , Master? he asked sternly. At that mont, I was lifted out of my chair. More accurately, Max had lifted
in bridal style.What is this guy trying to?I gave him a frantic look, but he continued to face forward with a cold expression. I think Ive found it. My weakness.
In response to his words, which sounded oddly familiar, my fathers expression beca even more bitter. You do a good job of jabbering about sothing thats not even true, he said.
Then what about you, Master? Youre being overbearing with your grown daughter, his disciple said. I frankly hadnt expected much for his acting, but he spoke in such a convincingly icy voice as if he had beco infatuated with his own performance. If you ddle with my weakness again, I will not stand by even if youre my master, he continued.
I inhaled sharply at his words.No, he shouldve said that moderately. That was too much.I carefully watched the master and disciple who had beco spiteful toward each other, unable to stop them. At that mont, my father showed an inexplicably cold smile.
Alright, if you say so. I will also not consider you as my disciple anymore, he said.
