To the Love Born in the Lowest Place

But August shook his head at those words.

"No, we don’t know what miracles Liv Gracia might perform again. And..."

Recalling the young face that had looked at him as if seeing a god, August smiled slightly.

"Emmett Lartman grew up watching and learning from me. I know him better than anyone."

"Pardon?"

"He resembles my ruthlessness. He’ll value the victory he can present to his wife more than the deaths of hundreds of slum dwellers."

"Your Majesty, even so, the lives of the people are at stake..."

"I’m the one who knows him well."

Looking at the face of old Marquis Schmidt who knew nothing, August leaned back on the throne. During the time he lived as the ’Emperor’s loyal dog’, Duke Lartman took on all sorts of dirty work for August. At that time, he had no doubt about his role, and to him, August was like the sky itself.

However, now that the person Duke Lartman follows has changed, he would be able to trample on anything for Liv Gracia.

’That fool’s stupid love is the problem.’

Emmett Lartman and Liv Gracia loved each other too much. That makes their bond even stronger.
