‘Is it because she is the daughter of the Duke of Regent?’ Raytan thought to himself.

“Anyway, I’m happy to meet you like this,” Carolyn said with a small smile.

Under the shining moonlight, she looked beautiful. However, that was it. She couldn’t catch his eye. He couldn’t resist his own eyes from continuing to stare at Sezh, who was standing alone.

“The maids said that Prince Raytan is very close to Princess Sezh.”

The sudden mention of Sezh’s name forcefully brought his vision to Carolyn.

“When I saw you escorting her, it seems it wasn’t just empty words.”

“The child is not engaged yet. So, there’s nothing wrong with her brother escorting her.”

“Oh my, I didn’t intend to say that it was wrong. I just want to say that the Prince seemed to care a lot for the Princess. Isn’t that right?”“Is that so?”

“I thought it was Princess Lillian, turns out it was Princess Sezh.”

Raytan felt like there was a thorn slipped between her words. His expression became cold.

“It looks like people are surprised a lot. I also never even thought about it. I didn’t know the Prince would appear at this ball, but more than that, I didn’t know you would appear with Princess Sezh.”

“… I didn’t think about it either,” Raytan’s lips twisted up, and he continued to speak. “That the daughter of the Regent family was interrogating people in the Imperial Palace to gain more knowledge about me.”

“Really?” Carolyn laughed. “But that’s not wrong. Thanks to it, I learned a lot about you.”

“… Interesting.”

Raytan came closer to Carolyn and looked down at her. Those crimson eyes illuminated by the moonlight shone darkly like blood.

Raytan gradually opened his lips and spoke in a low and subdued voice.

“A person who already knows so much like this…”

“…”

“For what reason would you be interested in me.”

It’s impossible for Carolyn to not know about the legend that passed around the Imperial Palace from time to time. And the fact that Raytan lived under persecution in the Palace all his life.

Besides, the Regents were one of the Denhelder Empire’s founding descendants. There was no reason for Carolyn Regent to be interested in him. It was Raytan who actually should have approached her first.

Wasn’t the sole purpose of coming to this debut to attract her attention and favor? He finally achieved it now. However, the answers that came back from her mouth were somehow offensive to his ears.

“There’s something that caught my interest.”

“…. your interest?”

“Princess Lilian told me that no matter how much they bully the Prince, you never cry and cave in under the insults. She said she doesn’t like it very much.”

“So, that’s the reason you’re curious about me? From gossip like that?”

“At first, it was just curiosity. But not now… The more I listened to the story, the more I became fascinated. Even more, after seeing the Prince in person like this.”

“You have peculiar tastes for a noble lady. Don’t you know the legend in the Imperial Palace?”

“I don’t care about the legend or whatever you call it.”

“Legend or whatever?” Raytan’s eyebrows furrowed.

“It’s just crap made by stupid people. I just…” Carolyn shut her mouth for a moment and reached out her hand. She then caressed Raytan’s cheek delicately.

“I just prefer a strong man rather than those luxuriant men. Like my father.”

Raytan had also heard the story about the Regent family. Carolyn’s father was the child of a neglected concubine, and he had lived ignored his whole life.

However, the enormous number of soldiers owned by the Regent family for generations became his. Due to the Duke’s efforts, the Regent family, who had hardly been able to survive in high society before, has now established itself as the most powerful family in the Empire.

Sometimes there was gossip amongst the nobles that, in truth, the eldest son of the Regent family was murdered at the hands of the current Duke Regent. However, that never became the hottest topic in society as everyone was afraid of him.

‘A strong man?’ Raytan sneered without knowing. Maybe what Carolyn sought wasn’t strength…

“I see, the Lady likes madness. Like the Duke’s.”

“Do I?” Carolyn replied with a bright face. “But it’s cooler, isn’t it?” She smiled lightly.

No matter the reason Carolyn was interested in him, it wasn’t important at all. What Raytan needed was not Carolyn herself but her family. Carolyn, like Lize already said, was the most valuable woman now. If she came to him on her own, there was no downside for Raytan.

Raytan casually smiled as he stared at Carolyn, who still fixed her gaze on him.

“If the Prince is okay, shall we make a toast to celebrate this meeting?” Carolyn said while holding a wine glass.

Raytan nodded, and soon she began to pour the wine. The color was blood red, which perfectly resembled his eyes.

“I wish I could often see you like this in the future.”

“…”

“We can do that, can’t we?”

“… Maybe.”

Carolyn’s eyes gracefully curled as she handed him the wine glass. Raytan stared down at her and bumped their glasses.

However, the moment Raytan was about to drink his wine, below the balcony, he saw something he had never imagined: Mathias and Sezh.

***

Sezh already declared she was okay, but Mathias was stubborn. He supported the stumbling Sezh as they left the banquet hall. There were too many people in the banquet hall, and there was no space to rest.

He brought her to the courtyard located in front of the banquet hall and carefully seated Sezh on a large rock.

“Princess, are you in a lot of pain?” Mathias asked with a worried face.

Sezh once again said ‘I’m okay, so please don’t mind,’ but she unknowingly made a distressed frown.

It seemed she sprained her ankle terribly. Sezh’s ankle was throbbing unbearably and swelling rapidly. It was upsetting.

“I’m going to ask an attendant to call the physician now,” Mathias stood up and stated.

“No, no! I can just go back to my palace and get some treatment. I can still endure this…”

It was a pure lie. Forget about enduring, the pain kept increasing gradually, and it hurt so much. Nevertheless, she didn’t want to trouble the kindhearted Mathias anymore.

Also, didn’t she witness people’s stares when Mathias supported her while walking out of the banquet hall? Their gaze, directed towards her, felt like deadly arrows. Sezh didn’t wish to get any more attention.

“Then how about I accompany you to your palace?” Mathias asked, and Sezh quickly panicked.

If both of them went together to her palace and encountered other people from the Imperial Palace on their way, it would surely reach Lillian’s ears. Besides, what if Raytan was waiting for her?

He put up with all the things he didn’t like to come here with her. She couldn’t leave him alone.

“No, I’m really fine. Please go back to the banquet hall. Didn’t you say that you came here with your cousin? Your cousin must be waiting.”

However, Mathias looked like he’ll never consider going back to the banquet hall. He looked down at Sezh’s swelling ankle and bent down on his knees in front of her.

“If it’s okay, can I take a look?”

“Yes?”

“Of course, compared to a physician, I’ll be lacking, but at least I know how to do some first aid.”

“That, you don’t have to be bothered by me like this….”

“I’m not, so please don’t feel burdened. Then excuse me for a second.”

Mathias slowly reached out his hand and held Sezh’s ankles very carefully.

“Ah…”

He didn’t even in the slightest bit hold it hard, but a groan came out of her mouth.While looking at her ankle, Mathias’s expression was serious. It really hurts so much. However, when Sezh looked down at Mathias who’s still calmly examining her ankle, it made her feel embarrassed.

No, this is so embarrassing. Why did she have to be in this state in front of a person she just met for the first time today? While Sezh was captivated by her thoughts, Mathias seemed to be busy looking at her ankle. He squeezed it a little and then gently pressed the swollen area.

Sezh clenched her fists, trying to endure the pain. After a while, Mathias exhaled a sigh of relief and parted his lips.

“It looks like you stretched your ligaments. But I am glad there is nothing wrong with the bones.”

“A-are you sure?”“Certainly, but you will have to bear with the pain for the time being. If you immediately go back to your palace and get treat-…!”

Mathias couldn’t finish his words. Someone who just ran over suddenly grabbed his collar tightly. Mathias, who was bending his knees, was roughly dragged to his feet in a flash.

“.…You.” His crimson eyes shone brilliantly under the moonlight. “Now… what did you dare to do?.”

From Raytan’s lips came a chilly voice.
