Chapter 21
After quite a long time had passed, the Emperor remarried Fron.
Fron had no social standing at all in high society, was blunt, and lacked refinement.
Having come from a mercenary background and spent years at the bottom, she would casually spit out words that would make noble young ladies faint.
Naturally, there was a great deal of opposition, but the Emperor ignored it all.
"The only person who can oppose my marriage is Kiaros. But Kiaros has given his blessing."
Those words even served to solidify Kiaros’s status as successor.
After safely overcoming his blackout period, no one doubted the extraordinary talent he possessed anyway.
The Emperor secretly spoke to Kiaros.
"Kiaros, I support your first love too. Whoever she may be, there will be no opposition from the Imperial Family."
Though it wasn’t publicly known, that was how Kiaros was freed from the obligation of an arranged engagement.
Because the Emperor himself had stepped forward and remained silent about his marriage.
"Our son has fallen head over heels for a girl whose hair he hasn’t even seen, showing an abnormal level of obsession for a long time... but still, I respect you."
