When the mysterious light burst from the Emperor’s room, the imperial knights opened the bedroom door, prepared to beheaded by the Emperor. At that time, Aslei had already wrapped Frisia’s body in a blanket.
The courtiers originally from the House of Tintalion who saw Frisia in the Emperor’s arms cried out and sat down in tears.
Those tears honestly reflected their deep joy for Frisia’s return, but they also reflected that all those years without her had been terrible.
When Aslei decided to become Emperor and invited attendants from the Tintalion duchy, most of the Duchy’s employees volunteered as if it were natural.
It was necessary because more than one person died in the imperial palace.
He had killed so many people that the palace lacked hands, so they needed to supplement with the Duchy’s family’s servants and knights. Moreover, now those initially in the palace were outnumbered and could not act territorially or fight back.
Everyone holding out in the imperial palace, including those from the Duchy, were terrified of Aslei
Fortunately, those from the Duchy were not put to death, but the circumstances of the imperial family’s servants differed. So, they always depended on the Tintalion Duke’s associates.
It was natural for things to turn out that way. If someone’s head was about to be cut off and a servant or maid from the duke’s family stepped forward and made an excuse, they could get away with their neck intact.
However, it was not as if those from the dukedom walked around with their shoulders relaxed.
The current owner was crazy. The entire palace was full of blood and stains, and when they wiped it away, it still felt worse than a ghost lair. The palace servants and maids who reported to the duke’s servants what was happening were crying and asking for help so that every day couldn’t be more difficult and stressful.
Like Aslei, their only hope was to wait for their madam to return.
Although they had prayed for it, their hope had been fading day by day, so they burst into tears as soon as they saw Frisia’s face.
Of course, those stoic knights were the only ones that didn’t sob. However, their eyes might have gotten a little watery.

Aslei sent his knights and servants away and headed to the empress’ bedroom. This was because the bedroom door was broken when the knights forced their way in. The Empress’s bedroom was refurbished and cleaned daily so that it could be used at any time, so it was usable immediately.
Frisia’s face grew hot at the sight of Aslei blatantly going straight to her bed. Just by looking at his eyes she could tell his intentions.
“Ah, Aslei… … . I have to wash up!”
It was natural since so much time had passed without her knowing. There was no way she’d be embraced by Aslei like this.
Aslei had heard something from the Spirit King and was anxious. There was also a slight anxiety that even if he washed Frisia in water, she would disappear like foam.
“But it only smells good.”
“Well— still! I’ve been sleeping for almost 4 years, now… … .”
At first glance, when she opened her eyes, she was always in the fruit. She opened her eyes in a liquid that I couldn’t tell if it was sap or juice, but no water entered her eyes. It was comfortable.
“Then let me get you ready for a bath,”
Aslei said that, sat down on the bed with her, and pulled the rope. Frisia became anxious as she was wrapped in a blanket and unable to move.
She had planned to call her maids to take a bath and ask them what had happened.
“Are you sure you want to go into the bathroom with me?”
“Can’t I?”
“O-Of course… … .”
His pitiful face filled her eyes as she tried to say no. His face was lined with tears, and his eyelids were red.
“Please… … . It still feels like a dream and I don’t let go. If this dream is shattered, I will die too.”
She was at a loss for words as he hugged and pleaded with her. She was not cruel enough to refuse the trembling and begging of the man she loved.
Especially if he had been unjustly suffering in her absence this whole time even though he had done nothing wrong.
“Oh, I see.”
Meanwhile, the maid, who was clearly wiping away her tears in a hurry, came into her room. She looked at her Frisia, her eyes shining with joy. With a calm expression, Aslei told her to prepare for her bath.
The maid disappeared out of her bedroom as if in flight, leaving the two. Aslei was scanning Frisia’s face with dreamy eyes.
As tears welled up in his eyes again, a sad expression appeared on her face.
“Why are you crying again?”
“I’m so happy… . Tears keep falling.”
Frisia muttered, “A crying man doesn’t know how to make his tears stop,” and kissed his cheek. Aslei’s cheeks, which were shedding tears, heated up, and their lips collided.
It was so sweet it took his breath away. His chest felt numb, ached, and hot at the same time.
