“…Can I ask you to deliver a message to the crown princess?” Ares asks quietly, right around the time Auguste’s strength finally returns.

Sitting on the floor with his legs kicked out in front of him, Auguste bites his lip. He’d seen this coming. Under the circumstances, there’s no other way. It’s the only thing Ares can do to save Sahra.

“You only used that wife of yours so you could become king.”

“No. I wanted to be king because—”

“Don’t say you did it for her! You did it for yourself, and you know it.”

On the bed, Ares starts to argue, then falls silent. “That’s right,” he says softly.

So…? So what? That doesn’t fix anything. Knocking his forehead against his raised knee, Auguste exhales. Get it together, man.

There’s no room for personal feelings in this. The Queendom of Hausel might attack them. The more firepower they have, the better.

The type of man who succeeds can probably make the right choice in these situations. Those men wouldn’t let the fact that they hate this affect their decisions.

“…Fine. I’ll go arrange it.” Auguste climbs to his feet.

Ares’s eyes widen slightly. Ignoring him, Auguste starts to leave the room before his resolution falters.

“I do remember you.”

His hand is on the doorknob when the other man speaks to him. His voice is brusque. “I may have been torn up already, but that was the first time anyone ever took me down instantly.”

“…Oh yeah?”

“If Sahra can be saved, after that, you can do whatever you want to me.”

Grinding his teeth, Auguste leaves the room without responding. He slams the door, then stomps loudly up the corridor, wiping away the pointless moisture that wells up in his eyes.

It would be a lot easier if the bad guys just stayed bad.

Swallowing down his own ugliness and bitterness, he faces forward again. Just then, his shoulder knocks into someone. It’s Serena.

“Hey, watch where you’re go— What’s the matter?”

“…What do you mean?”

“Are you okay?” Serena frowns, sounding unusually concerned.

He wonders what sort of face he’s making, and it starts to strike him as kind of funny.

“I’m fine. Sorry, I need to talk to Lady Aileen.”

As he starts forward again, she grabs his arm.

When he turns, Serena is glaring at him. Her forehead is furrowed, and her hand is squeezing his arm so hard it hurts. Is she angry? He feels himself tense up. “Wh-what?”

“—…Guh…guh…”

“Guh? What’s wrong—?” He bends down a little, and she hauls on his arm. Her lips zoom in so fast he thinks she may be about to bite him, but instead she presses them briefly to his cheek.

“Good luck!”

Yelling the words like a parting shot, Serena leaves him there.

Auguste blinks, dazedly running his fingers over his cheek. He breaks into a grin. Even he thinks he’s too easy. It’s fine that way, though.

He loves her. She’s cute. He wants to protect her. He wants to make her wishes come true. He wants to win. He wants a future where everyone can be happy, even the bad guys, even if he can’t forgive them.
