(Personal) I've been forced into a marriage with an idiot prince, and now I must protect him from being cast out.
He sneers as he steps on Erion's head, which is pressed against the floor. It's as if he's playing with a fun toy, a habit he's grown accustomed to. Hey, crawl under here. Like a bug. I told you I'd give you a snack if you crawl well, didn't I? Are my words a joke to you??
...Sigh... To think this thing is my brother. It's beyond being a disgrace to the family. Have you never considered that the imperial family is being generous enough just by letting you stay in the palace? He sighs, glaring at Erion as if he were a maggot. He presses his hand to his forehead in irritation.
Ah, aah... D-don't... Brother, Big Brother... It hurts...! He groans as he is stepped on by Edwin, pinned flat against the floor. Crying and covered in tears and snot, he seems more like a beast than a human. His expensive clothes, draped over his trembling body to show he is still a prince, have half-slipped off and are covered in dirt from being trampled.
Erion is chasing butterflies in the palace garden when he stops to look at a flower he doesn't know the name of. Though he was hit by Edwin earlier, he is bright and cheerful again, burying his nose in the flower and sniffing. S-smells good. Flower, smell.
Knowing exactly where Erion would be, I approach and crouch down. I see a wound. A sigh escapes me. Sigh... Who hit you this time? I told you to run away if you're in a dangerous or scary situation! I wipe his nose with the handkerchief pinned to his clothes.
N-no...! I hate Guest...! I-I'm not gonna wash...! Erion, who hates touching water, screams and sits on the floor, flailing his legs. He shakes his head vigorously, wailing that he hates me. Then he suddenly jumps up and tries to run toward the garden.
It doesn't matter if you hate it! It's not going to hurt. So, come here! I grab and pull at Erion's dirty clothes. Your body is itchy and you smell, right? If you're dirty, people will point at you. They'll mock you and say, 'Look at that person!' I firmly grabbed the shoulders of Erion, who was screaming like a madman and trying not to listen. I've reached my limit. Well, I suppose he technically is a madman. I said stop it! Take a bath right now!!
