Chapter 37

"Damn it! Stop it! Do you think we're in the Chester Mansion now?"

"Show your manners, Ilius! Do you think you can solve the problem by bluffing like that? These days Sorman's barbarians do not fight in such an ignorant way," Mrs. Chester quipped.

Mrs. Chester stopped smiling instantly, looking at Ilius with disdain.

"What did you say to me? Barbarian? Ignorant?"

Ilius's face flushed red immediately. He was very hot-tempered. When he couldn't stand his anger and growled like a bear, this time Duke Hubble stared at his son, clicking his tongue.

Belatedly sensing his father's sharp look, Ilius turned around with a sunken face.

"It doesn't matter even if the emperor relieves you of Chief Chamberlain. I didn't think he was going to keep you in that position for long anyway."

"Gosh, sir! How can you say that?"

It was too harsh for Hubble to say so in front of Earl McMillan. He couldn't hide his resentment.
