I could see the atmosphere of the place change, perhaps surprised by my behavior.
Victor and Leon were also surprised to see .
“How high is her Pride…?”
“Well, that just how she is.”
“You’re a creepy woman. You could at least show a little weakness.”
“…I can’t do that…”
“Hah? What do you an?”
“…I think she is aware that if she shows weakness, she will not be able to keep herself. That’s why I’m sure Master will never be willing to show any weakness in the future…”
“What are you going to do if you go into a world that is hard to live in by yourself?”
“If kindness is given to soone, it will ruin them… I guess it’s when the situation makes you want to hang on to even the slightest kindness, and it repels you. …So Master must be in a lot of pain right now.”
“It’s uncanny. The little girl should just be more spoiled by her surroundings.”
“Wouldn’t Victor-sama understand being in the position of a prince?”
“…I an, how co you know more about the kid than I do, even though you’ve only been involved with the kid for a short ti?”
“Because we are similar in a way. The Pride of not showing any weakness is there to protect .”
“You’re a pain in the neck, as well.”
They seed to be having so kind of conversation, but I couldn’t grasp what they were talking about because of the expression on Duke-sama’s face.
It was not that I didn’t want to rely on Duke-sama. In fact, there were many monts when I wanted to rely on him.
If anything, I was relying on him even now. Because the first prince of Duelkis ca to Ravaal for , you know?
And I was a sinner in Duelkis.
If it wasn’t for Duke-sama when I fell off the cliff, I would be dead. Without him, I wouldn’t be here now.
“I see, I understand.”
Duke-sama paused for a mont, then smiled sowhat sadly and patted gently on the head.
…That was enough to bring tears to my eyes. What great love I was being protected by.
“Go ho.”
Victor’s words ca out of nowhere, and I froze. I shifted my gaze toward him.
I just stared at Victor, not instantly understanding his words. He stared back at .
“You go back to where you ca from.”
“What do you an? I still have things to do here…”
“You’re not from this country to begin with. Go ho.”
A few minutes ago, you were trying to make stay in this country.
What kind of change of heart was that? Was he emotionally unstable? I guess I was emotionally unstable as well.
“…Just go ho. Your presence here right now is just a nuisance.”
Without raising his voice, Victor muttered this with a frown on his face.
…Nuisance?
Did he forget that I risked my life to get the Kii for Victor?
“You’re a bunch of clumsy idiots.”
Kushana, who was watching us, chuckled in exasperation.
