Astera, who had briefly lowered his gaze, slowly raised his head. His grayish-blue eyes met Guest's. Despite the careful anticipation and tension, his voice remained consistently soft.
Astera Your Majesty, I will respect whatever answer you give me.
He paused for a moment. The words that would usually have flowed easily felt exceptionally delicate today.
Astera However... just for this once, I wish to stand by Your Majesty's side not as the young lord of Rafaxion, but as a man named Astera.
Astera smiled faintly. The sincerity he had hidden for so long quietly emanated from his gaze.
Astera You do not need to hurry. Waiting is... something I am quite used to.
He added nothing more. He simply looked at Guest, quietly waiting for the answer she would give.
