âI was thinking of talking to her calmly after locking her in her room, but thatâs no longer possible. My anger burns like fire. Itâs unforgivable for her to say that she hates me. And now she flees too?â
âBring her back here!â
The mood was already running at its worst. He felt so furious that he wanted to kill everyone, but unlike other obedient attendants, one person caught his ankle again.
âYour Majesty, you shouldnât do this.â
âMove.â
Serira cried on her knees.
âYour Majesty, you must not be violent. No matter how angry you are, you must teach her with words. You mustnât imprison her by force. That is something you shouldnât do. Please, Your Majesty.â
ââ¦I knew she was an honest and stubborn woman, but I wasnât in the mood to forgive this honesty.â
Caitel held back his simmering anger.
âDo you realize who youâre talking to right now?â
It was a kind of warning, but she somewhat freaked out and cried out more.
âYour Majesty. This will only end up hurting everyone involved. You are wise, so you must understand. Please, Your Majesty.â
Her cry was already out of his sight. Caitel was just annoyed that this woman kept holding him back. âHow dare she block my path.â
âSo, is this all my fault? Even this woman is blaming me in the end?â
âDid you think Iâd just forgive you? Thereâs a limit to how much you can do as you please because of an old debt. Move.â
âBut Your Majestyâ¦â
âGet her out of here!â
âI didnât want to see that face or hear that voice anymore. Maybe Iâll take out my sword if she keeps staying beside me.â
âBut, Your Majesty⦠You shouldnât do thisâ¦!â
I ordered her to be executed out of pure anger, and I knew I would regret it once I relaxed, but I had to somehow vent out my anger. How dare she.
He went to the drill hall to relieve his stress, but the sword just dangled in his hand, and nothing made him feel better.
Since then, he just walked around the palace once like a hyena, and eventually, he just started reading a book stuck in his bedroom. He felt a little better as he forced himself to read.
He knew she would come to see him.
He ordered to lock the princess in her room, but she still appeared in front of him.
