Chapter 242
“It seems you've done more than enough already.”
Empress Tigria praised the young daughter of Marquis Ortio once Unicia had finished putting on her clothes.
“I still have a long way to go.”
Unicia hadn’t been surprised to find the Empress nearby. She had already sensed her presence. What frustrated her was the clumsiness of her own magic.
“My training is lacking.”
Unicia was deeply ashamed of herself.
She had made the terrifying Duke angry. It was only natural for him to be worried since his precious family was in danger, yet she had stood in his way.
And then, she had nearly wet herself in fear of that very same Duke.
“...The Duke is truly incredible.”
That Duke’s daughter had now become the Duke herself.
Unicia thought the new Duke was so cool—so strong, so composed.
“She’s not even an adult, yet she’s more admirable than most adults. I want to be like her.”
