“Since I’ve been so close to Nus since we were little, we still get along well, but the youngest doesn’t. She lived separately when she was young, and it’s largely because Father raised her so much. She’s not really close to me.”

“I’m glad she’s not friends with you. Next time she does that, I won’t let her off the hook again.”

“Never mind me, Euel.”

Aurin’s reply has her characteristic arrogance, it was possible to feel that Lili Xuen and Aurin were not close. They were more distant than expected.

Come to think of it, rumors about Xuen’s youngest daughter are rife, but no one seems to have seen Lili Xuen in her childhood.

“By the way, Euel, do you really have nothing to do with His Majesty?”

“No.”

I remembered that Tess said that he liked me, but I quietly buried it. Even if the dog I raised confesses to liking me, I wouldn’t know what to do. Even if he doesn’t feel like a dog, I’m not in a position to answer that.

Of course, Tess, who has transformed into my type, is very dangerous. He was hammering and breaking the stereotypes I’ve had over the years. Especially those lips.

“Yes, absolutely not.”

It may take a while, but I have no intention of getting along with anyone.

There is the reason that I have to go to another world, but it was also because of a ‘certain experience’ that held me back.

“I’m sorry. His Majesty and you were close when we were young, so I thought you would be special even now. If possible, break the youngest’s pride.”

“Haha, a lot of time has passed. Aurin, do you remember His Majesty when you were young?”

I responded with a smile at Aurin’s words. It must not have been erased from her memory that I was close with Tess.

“Of course. He cried every day.”

It seems that the change in people’s memories are limited to his appearance.

“It’s not like that. He doesn’t look like a crybaby at all now.”

“That’s right. He’s actually scary. Although this is a secret.”

“Is it a secret that he’s scary?”

“I told you before, right? He drove out the opposition. Most were death sentences. Without blinking an eye, he gave the death sentence. Those who opposed him were also put on the death sentence list without hesitation.”

Is that possible?

Perhaps reading my question, Aurin lowered her voice even more.

“I don’t know exactly when, but the Imperial Palace Knights swore allegiance to His Majesty. Originally, they were divided into three groups and fought for factions.”

“What?”

“In addition, His Majesty knew who committed the corruption all the time. So, there was plenty of justification.”

“It must have been very brutal.”

“It makes me wonder why our family hasn’t disappeared.”

Reading Aurin’s expression, I raised my eyebrows. I could tell that she was joking.

“So actually, when the Hardland family was said to return to the capital, many people were looking forward to it. I wonder if they can calm His Majesty’s rampage.”

“…….”

“There are rumors going around that His Majesty has been quiet for the past several months since the order that Hardland will return home was issued.”

Oh Father. You are doing a great job. You’re controlling the Emperor befitting the nickname ‘Iron-Blooded Hardland’, right?

“I thought you were included in that reason.”

“Me?”

“Yes. Because His Majesty, ever since he was the Crown Prince, um don’t take it badly, he treated you specially.”

Seeing my frowning face, Aurin smiled lightly.

“I know, you must have been bothered. I didn’t know it at the time, but while I was getting to know you, I could imagine how bothering His Majesty must have been to you in the past. But in the eyes of others, it could be favoritism. There may be people who still feel that way.”

It was kind advice.

If I go to a social gathering like today, there’s a hundred percent chance I’ll run into people who don’t like me. Aurin gave me a tip appropriate to my situation.

“Thank you for letting me know.”

“Don’t mention it. I want to tell you more, but I don’t know much about it either.”

“No. That’s enough.”

Yes, ever since I was little, Tess didn’t do most of what I told him not to do. Except for not coming to play.

Is there not much difference now? I told him not to kill Lili Xuen, and he did.

Remembering that I hated being noticed, he didn’t actively pretend to know me. It would be a problem if it became known that he designated me as a guide in the Concium. I put up with Tess-related things a lot.

“Are you going to stay?”

Ethyl, who seems to be forcibly staying here, asked, hoping for an answer.

“Don’t ask me, ask your partner.”

“What does Euel want to do?”

Ethyl’s eyebrows twitched slightly as Nus, who had followed Ethyl, asked after him.

“If Nus is okay, I will go.”

“Euel?”

It was Ethyl who muttered.

“When did you two become friends? You came together today even.”

“Ahh, there’s something.”

I could understand why Ethyl was confused, but I didn’t want to explain the shame of the Xuen family in front of the person itself. So I just spoke vaguely. Then Ethyl’s expression became strange.

I ignored it and said, looking at Nus.

“Let’s go. I want to go.”

The big names did not show their faces here, but I could feel the general atmosphere among the middle-class nobles. People glanced at me, but didn’t come close. Either I’m in a difficult position to deal with, or I’m not worth being close to.

Maybe it’s the latter?

Even if my father became Minister of the Internal Affairs, my family would be weak compared to the Xuen and other families that had established themselves in the capital over the years.

“If you need me again next time, call me.”

For Nus, people tend to come on their own to me, and it was very convenient because I could hear the story from the sidelines. There’s no reason to refuse.

“Okay.”

Attending my first social gathering rather ended up a success……

I thought it was, but there was an ambush.

“So Euel, who is it, Nus or Ethyl?”

I was speechless for a moment when I saw Mother, who had the same dark green eyes as mine, but I shook my head.

“Neither of them is like that, Mother.”

“Huh, I was looking forward to seeing my daughter dating. By the way, you know Father is shouting against marriage, right?”

…… I will avoid Father for a while.

I don’t want to be hugged and kissed on the cheek again when I’m all grown up…….

It took some time before I realized that there was someone else to avoid besides Father because of his violent reaction.
