Chapter 162

Its spacious here.

Well, its a palace, so its naturally spacious.

Even the attempt at conversation quickly faded away. Violet didnt mind the lack of conversation. The clear blue sky stretched above them, and the palace below was equally vast, giving off an imposing feeling.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

Somewhere in this palace, Roen would be present. It was almost certain that he was being exploited for his labor by the crown prince, who was as bright as the day.

Violet wondered if she might coincidentally run into Roen, but it was a futile thought.

Oh my, whos this?

?

Isnt it Lady Everett, the famous one? Hello~?

Someone greeted her, and Violet glanced at the person who spoke. It was a face she had seen at a previous event, likely at the palace due to some official business.

Before exchanging greetings, its customary to introduce yourself first.

Surely you havent forgotten me already? Hoho, it hasnt been that long since we last met.

Let me reiterate. Please introduce yourself properly if youd like to exchange greetings.

What Oh, youve become quite confident since youve got men on both sides, hm?

The person spoke in a somewhat provoking manner to Violet. Or could it even be considered picking a fight?

It was a young lady holding a parasol, avoiding the sunlight elegantly. Violet sighed inwardly. Even if she knew who this person was, she had no intention of playing along.

Why did all these small fries behave in the same way? It would be better to confront the final boss instead.

Violet tilted her head to the side indifferently. As her petty goading didnt work, the young womans expression became visibly irritated.

I am Fael of House Asash. So, how did the illustrious Ducal Lady end up visiting the Imperial Palace?

Hmm.

Haha, I truly envy beautiful ladies like you so much, Ducal Lady. After marriage, you can forget your past and start a new life, after all!

Isnt that the same for you?

Violet said it without much thought, just a spontaneous response without going through the filter of her thoughts. The young woman was furious at Violets words.

If threatening was rude, then what she did was comparatively beyond rude. The young woman initiated the confrontation but was now acting proudly as though she had done nothing wrong. On the other hand, Violet just scoffed.

Why should I apologize? Instead, I have a question for you. Can you take responsibility for your own actions?

What?

I am asking if you can take responsibility for your actions.

Daring to turn House Everett into an enemy and running her mouth like that.

Despite not having formally learned to wield a sword, Violet exuded a different kind of pressure.

With something separate from Cairns dominating presence facing her, the young woman felt cold sweat trickling down her spine. In the end, the pressure was enough to clamp her lips shut.

W-What do you know!

At the very least, you should know that if you dont kneel and beg right now, your future will be very difficult.

Hah. So youre going to threaten me with your family now?

Instead of answering, Violet simply laughed. Face flushed with embarrassment, the young woman clenched her teeth.

It would be better for you not to speak words that wont bring any benefit if uttered.

What do you know, a girl like you? Youre worth only as much as you can be sold.

A person mocks others and talks about men like that cant really say much, can they?

If you think you can, give it a try! It will damage your reputation as well!

Do you think I cant do it?

T-Thats

Violets indifferent gaze fell upon the girl. She had been speaking so confidently, yet she now quickly faltered.

Kneeling on the dusty ground, she faced Violet and spoke with a humbled expression.

I have been impolite. Please forgive me.

Violet simply shook her head in response.
