“I don’t care about skills.”
“Again, I may make a mistake. Please understand.”
“Do you dare refuse my hand?”
Astelle gracefully bent her knees and bowed her head.
“I’m sorry, Your Majesty.”
It was a firm refusal.

She was supposed to ask for permission to send Theor back home first, but things have gone awry.
‘What if Kaizen gets mad and leaves?’

He did not give up and reached out to Astelle again.
“Even if I ask you so earnestly?”

She thought he would get mad and walk away.
Kaizen made it feel like he would not give up all night unless Astelle accepted it.
She began to hear gossips around her.
Astelle bit her lip in embarrassment.

“I may step on Your Majesty’s feet.”
“It doesn’t matter if you step on me.”
‘I really want to step on you.’
