Chapter 46: 46

Thinking positively, it’s delaying the punishment, but if looking at the Grand Duke’s tendency, it was the perfect death sentence to bring out all the small mistakes he had made in the past and punish them. After being pointed out by the Grand Duke, Roel answered resolutely, hiding his inside that was cheering.

“Yes. Just leave it to me. From now on, I will do my best not to disappoint the Grand Duke.”

“How long are you going to leave the criminal here?”

Byrne quickly called someone and ordered that the butler be brought out. The guards dragged the butler from both sides.

“Your Grace! You can’t do this to me! Considering the years we’ve been together, listen to me!”

The butler’s desperately extended hand could not even reach the Grand Duke. In the Grand Duke’s face, who ignored the desperate cry, only the emotion that said ‘my head hurts because of the noise’ was seen.

“I’ve decided not to blame, so I’ll hold off on you guys.”

“Thank you. I will try not to make the same mistake again.”

“Thank you for giving me another chance.”

The Grand Duke could not blame his aide. Just as he had admitted his own fault, they were the same. These are the people who helped the Grand Duke do well. They were so clever in terms of work that without them, it would be difficult to manage it this far.

He made a mistake in the same part, and punishing them was nothing but anger. It was a mistake made only by people who were the same as him and them. He had to accept people more colorfully. A person with a delicate side, rather than a smart person who only does his job well.

“And it hurts to be pointed out that I don’t know about my son. Organize Kirsec’s actions so far.”

There was no response from Roel to the Grand Duke’s orders.

“Everything, honestly?”

Roel’s hesitant voice was reminiscent of the Grand Duke of absurdity. Roel’s eyes were serious. The Grand Duke pressed his thumb and forefinger against his forehead. When Roel spoke like that, he had no idea how much Kirsec’s atrocities would be in the meantime.

There were no reports of any problems with him, so he thought Kirsec was doing fine. No, even when it was reported that there was a problem, it was cleverly conveyed as if it was someone else’s fault, and he let it go and ended it.

When meeting him, Roel bows his head and is timid to not make eye contact, but other than that, he thought there was no problem. But Roel is like this. He should no longer turn away from a 7-year-old child’s scolding.

“Tell everything honestly.”

“Understood.”

They were in the midst of discussing the possibility of a war just before the meeting. In an expedition that he went on a while ago, Ceyron dug a trap, not just a simple provocation. There was a sneak attack aimed at the Grand Duke, and Commander Hertman was injured while trying to stop it. Ceyron’s actions were becoming more and more insidious.

War wears out the people. While the able men went to war, their livelihood was sluggish, and the rest of the family was anxious while waiting for the family to return to the battlefield. It was a serious level of material and psychological exhaustion. The Grand Duke had no choice but to think carefully about the possibility of war and how to respond to provocations.

A daring kid changed the atmosphere by throwing a different kind of shock into the tense air. Unlike his father, who seems to have robbed the mountains, he was small and cute, and he was cunning and daring.

“Oh, he’s a great kid.”

Is that so? Even though the Grand Duke did not add any further comments, everyone equally thought of Commander Hertman’s daughter and showed signs of agreement.

A child who is not 7 years old at all. Was it because of her bold attitude or because of her coherent tone? He did not recognize that the child was a 7-year-old child when he heard the story. Moreover, he was unaware of the fact that she had a language ability that was inappropriate for her age. He thought he was being scolded by an adult.

The child had a talent for attracting people as if it was strangely natural for her. She must have been one year younger than Kirsec, but it was a different level of maturity.

The Grand Duke looked at Hertman, who was sitting still. He looked more uncomfortable than himself, who was scolded by his 7-year-old child.

“Hertman, you have a wonderful daughter, you must be delighted.”

“To be honest…… Yes, it is.”

Like Kirsec, she didn’t grow up on her own. He wondered what kind of happy worries it would be to have a daughter who seemed to be able to take good care of himself.

“What are you so worried about?”

“She grows too fast.”

Hertman’s bitterness touched the Grand Duke’s heart. It’s also a problem for the child to not grow up in a hurry, but even if they grew up too quickly, their parents’ hearts were devastated.

“It sounds like a full-fledged whining to me.”

“Ah, sorry. That was not the intention.”

Hertman urgently apologized, knowing that it would be inappropriate to whine in front of the Grand Duke, who had just been pointed out for his child’s negligence. The target the Grand Duke pointed out was his own daughter. It was right to be careful with his words.

“No, I’m not blaming you, it’s because I’m envious.”

I am also worried about my daughter who is too rude. How can she speak so boldly in front of the Grand Duke…? I am sorry.”

Hertman, who later recalled his daughter’s rudeness, apologized again.

No matter how much immunity she had, if the Grand Duke had been a slightly more typical nobleman, it was a crime of blasphemy that she could immediately be decapitated. Seeing the imperial nobleman, Hertman knows that his daughter has made a huge mistake. But the Grand Duke smiled lightly and waved his hand.

“Don’t do that. I already told your daughter that I forgive her, but if you do, then what will I be?”

As Hertman was at loss, the Grand Duke laughed even more. He wondered how such a foxy daughter could exist under such an honest father.
