The Flower Dances and the Wind Sings

She sat down there and cried for a long time. And then Lianne, who was worried about her, came to her.

Lianne wiped away Ercella’s tears and patted her back. Lianne did not ask any questions as if she understood her.

After Ercella’s tears stopped, Lianne kindly helped her up. Her grief-stricken body had no strength left, so Ercella leaned against Lianne back to her room.

Ercella blankly lay on her bed, dazedly remembering what happened earlier. Vicente was right in a way. Queen Grania, who had the highest position in the country, died after giving birth to Prince Alexis, so there was only a prince, but no princess.

But that wasn’t the answer she wanted. Ercella wanted to be a mother to Vicente.

What does she mean to Vicente? But in fact, there was nothing to think about. It’s just a beneficial relationship with a mother who is from a good family.

Had she been from an insignificant family, there would be no such regard. Even the servants would not have obeyed her command to reduce the number of tutors or control the training grounds. She would have lived her life unable to do anything without her husband’s consent.

No, we wouldn’t have gotten married in the first place.

She deprecated herself. Ercella was also noble, no matter how free she was, she had to consider the interests of the family. Basically, nobles value family honor above life and live their whole lives trying to raise their family prestige. In that, marriage was usually the way women lived for their families. Marrying into a good family and saving the family’s status.

And Ercella, like the rest of the nobles, was also faithful to her duties. She married the man from the best family among the proposals she received, as her father had suggested.

She truly had no regrets. In fact, the idea of regret itself was strange. This is the best family she could go for. She made the best choice at that time. Therefore, Ercella didn’t know what was there to regret.

“Madam, the Lord has returned home. And he wants to see you…”

Ercella paused as she entered his office. The lights were off. To be exact, all the lights except for the lamp on the table.

The dark room, relying on light from a dimly lit lamp, looked dreary. The owner of the room was sitting on a sofa with his eyes closed. Shaky light glowed over his face. Because of that the man’s face repeatedly darkened and brightened.

“Harsen.”

Her heart trembled like a stem of reed. It’s been a long time since they had confronted each other. Ercella looked at Harsen’s face a little blankly.

His jet-black hair was scattered irregularly over his forehead. Looks like he just arrived.

“You are here.”

Harsen’s closed eyes slowly opened, revealing his black eyes that turned towards Ercella.

Ercella was speechless from the suspense. She wanted to know if he was angry, but there were no signs on his face. His black eyes, looking at her only, seemed strangely decadent. She realized, he was tired.

About a hundred years ago, Conrad lost the war against Grania, and had to sign a peace treaty with Grania in exchange for Azrel.

Over time, they regretted losing Azrel and demanded that we cordially return it to them.

The problem is that Conrad’s power is larger than before, so this cannot be ignored for long. Grania was still dominant in force, but Conrad had a lot of developed commercial districts due to trade with neighboring countries, and Grania, too, had no choice but to rely on Conrad for some materials.

“You must be suffering.”

“It nothing hard, though.”

“You don’t show it when you’re having a hard time.”

Despite spending a long time with Ercella, he never opened up to her. Although out of regret, she had asked him several times in the past to lean on her, but he did not rely on Ercella till the end.

Ercella suddenly wondered how Harsen grew up. As Harsen stared at her, his eyes suddenly cooled down.

“What’s happened?”

“What?”
