"You should go to sleep now. It's already midnight."

Albert, who was sitting on a couch while reading a paper, said while looking at William who was working on some documents on his desk.

"Speak for yourself."

"Haa~ You know I can't do that. I have to do the work His Majesty isn't doing. I am the Emperor's aide, after all."

"Emperor's aide… Then what are you doing in my study?"

William asked as if he couldn't believe what Albert just said.

"I can't concentrate there after what happened."

Albert said bluntly while looking at the paper in his hand.

Judging by his eyes, William seemed a little surprised hearing that. But soon he looked at the document in his hand and said in a low voice,

"I see… It must have been hard for you."

"I am glad that you know."

Albert said in an obvious tone with a shrug.

"Albert."
