Chapter: 1080

He wouldn’t even give him proper advice.

“That’s not the point.”

Kaizen added nervously, “Astelle is critical of whatever I do.”

Isn’t that because you always do weird things?

But Fritz wasn’t rude enough to say such a thing. He only has one life.

Of course, since Fritz is Astelle’s only brother, Kaizen wouldn’t harm him in the slightest.

However, if he became uncontrollably angry, there was a possibility that he would wield the sword first, ignoring such kinship.

“That’s something worthy of a fight. Wouldn’t you be angry if it was you?”

“……well,” Fritz murmured with no confidence.

Kaizen looked up at Fritz belatedly.

Fritz is not a person to consult on such matters.

Kaizen did not visit the Reston mansion often, but the princess wanted to visit Siegfried, so he took her once.

That day, Kaizen met Fritz at Gretel’s greenhouse.

He was smiling like an idiot, holding strange grass in his hands, and wearing muddy pants.

“It’s a holiday, so I’m helping my wife with her work.”

“Why……?”

When Kaizen blankly asked, Fritz answered as if it were natural, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Thanks to that, his handsome face was stained with dirt.

“Gretel asked for help.”

Fritz had obviously never fought with the Duchess. Not once did he ever dispute her opinion.

Fritz asked carefully, “What part are you angry at?”

“The contract,” Kaizen confessed frankly. “Why did she still have it? I couldn’t understand.”

“Oh, that’s the most important problem after all.”

Kaizen didn’t answer, but Fritz knew it was an affirmation.

Fritz couldn’t understand why the two of them still quarreled over trifles like this. Gretel and he rarely quarreled, which made him even less sympathetic.
