Chapter 25.2
˚ ・: * ✧ * :・ ˚
Zen and Calia were staying at a hotel. Just as Cassel’s entourage, who followed him, was discussing that it was time to pay for the hotel, Lucis visited the hotel. Of course, he didn’t come empty-handed and he was also carrying a box of wine.
“Mr. Lucis!”
Zen greeted him happily.
“I see you’re all here.”
“What’s going on?”
“It’s nothing special. I’m just here to deliver a small gift from the head of the Hyllan association.”
They looked at the wine.
There was a whole box of wine that was truly rare to obtain. It was a wine that only the royal family would drink.
“No, this wine…!”
“Calia, you recognize it.”
“It’s what my father secretly treasures.”
Calia smiled.
Despite her decision to become a knight and leave behind her family and noble life, she couldn’t stop thinking about her father.
“Take a bottle each. Even though I wanted to get more, the clients were complaining about the lack of supplies.”
Calia was happy to hear Lucis’s words. She had been curious about the taste of her father’s favorite wine.
“Oh, and there’s something else I need to tell you. There will be many of you who will be living alongside His Highness Cassel in the future.”
Some had received titles and recognition for their contributions, while others had received rewards. Even though some returned to their hometowns, most followed Cassel, so their places of residence changed depending on where their master would be.
“It may be difficult to decide where to live now.”
Lucis was right.
“Staying in the hotel for free might also be inconvenient, so we’ll pay for it.”
Lucis chuckled at Zen’s words.
“That’s not necessary, but since you all seem uncomfortable, we have come up with an alternative.”
“What is it?”
They all asked with curiosity.
“There’s a mansion owned by the head of the Hyllan. There are quite a few rooms there, and it’s currently vacant. What do you think about staying there together until His Highness Cassel’s residence is determined?”
“Do we not have to pay this time as well?”
“Well, the head says the cost would be something like sharing the building maintenance and cleaning fees equally among yourselves.”
Rent in the city was expensive, so as a result, there were hardly any people who knew how much it cost to stay in such a mansion.
“The head of the Hyllan association truly cares for His Highness Cassel.”
“That’s the kind of person they are.”
Lucis adjusted his glasses.
“When we were supporting the battlefield, there were voices of opposition internally, but the head of the Hyllan persuaded those who opposed it and supported it for the victory of His Highness Cassel.”
They all nodded in agreement.
As Cassel achieved victory day by day, Lisseltz, who was in charge of the budget, failed to provide the proper supplies to Cassel’s knights. So, when the situation became dire and everyone was anxious, the head of the Hyllan association appeared.
Everyone took a glass of wine with them, reminiscing about that time.
“Even the glasses were specially customized.”
Each person’s name was engraved on the glass.
“…A glass with my name on it.”
Calia was deeply moved as she gazed at the glass.
“This is even more touching than the gift His Majesty gave us.”
Calia exclaimed with joy as she poured wine into her glass. And as she began to drink the wine, others followed suit.
Watching them, Lucis wore a satisfied expression before he checked his watch.
It was time to move on to another place now.

Cassel stared at Leilia, who was sleeping silently. After their affair, he gently brushed her hair as she slept, then returned to his bedroom and slipped on his clothes. Of course, he didn’t forget to put on the necklace she had given him and the wedding ring.
It was the appointed time. He had written a letter in advance last night so he would come at the agreed time.
“He has arrived.”
As Seychelle informed him, Cassel put on an accessory embroidered with a blue butterfly pattern.
Upon entering the reception room, he saw Lucis sitting there.
“I greet Your Highness.”
When he stood up, Cassel gestured for him to sit and asked Seychelle to bring the tea. After she left with the tea, the real conversation began.
“What can I do for you?”
The letter, which was sent through Natale, included a request for Lucis to visit the mansion by 12 o’clock today.
“We’re planning to go on our honeymoon.”
This was something Leilia also approved.
“That’s great. It will create wonderful memories for the two of you.”
“I’ll need to request some guards and servants.”
“Hmm? What about the ones in the mansion?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know?”
As he sharply questioned Lucis, who was feigning ignorance, he looked at him and eventually nodded his head in response.
“I see you knew how the people at the mansion treated the Madam.”
“Why didn’t you say anything if you knew?”
“Madam Leilia didn’t want it to be known.”
Upon hearing that, Cassel furrowed his brow.
Leilia had been hiding too much.
