“I’m afraid I’ve been raising him too much lately.”

He added jokingly.

“Well, wait a minute. I heard so many words all at once.”

Vivian stopped him for a moment and then grabbed her head. She could understand what she just heard in a sentence, but she couldn’t accept it.

When he asked for her understanding, Aiden waited beside her until she calmed down.

This means, the golden unemployed man who she thought was doing nothing in the corner of the house after reading a book until now turned out to be the master of the underworld, right? In addition, he also took care of the Emperor’s difficulty and helped the power to establish itself safely.

Isn’t this more real than what she’s heard?

“It wasn’t a false rumor that the dark side was growing to dominate the palace…?”

“No, that’s bullshit. Rather than grab hold of it, they are helping out front.”

Light and darkness joined hands. Where would the victim be if they joined forces at the height of the two extremes?

There seems to be a reason why the current empire is enjoying a more peaceful era than the previous Emperor.

Vivian immediately realized why the country was doing well even though the Emperor acted like he was missing a screw. Aiden was helping you out from behind!

“No, wait a minute.”

She opened her mouth with a sudden sense of incompatibility.

“You’re talking about His Majesty’s pride, don’t you think His Majesty is unaware of this?”

“You never know.”

At the same time as his answer, Vivian could see why Aiden was desperately hiding his identity. Who can tell that he was actually the owner of a dark family and that he was helping the emperor secretly? That’s what even the Emperor doesn’t know either.

Is that what it was?

She couldn’t have felt sorry. Vivian burst into laughter with a look of bewilderment at a heavy secret beyond imagination. Seeing her like that, Aiden asked.

“Aren’t you afraid?”

Rather, he seemed afraid of himself bringing it up. He was afraid that Vivian would be afraid of him. Because that was evident even on his face, she had to think about what to say instead of hurting Aiden. The idea of receiving an apology from him was already far away.

“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t scared at all. But that’s what the Black Grand Duke and the Underworld Master are for me. So, Aiden is just Aiden.”

She brought it up, and for a moment she was silent as if she were choosing her thoughts. When she learned one of his secrets, she began to wonder about other things as if the bank that had been blocked by force had burst all at once.

Why such vicious rumors have been engraved on his chest like scarlet letters since childhood. How did he get the scar on the back of his back? What happened as a child.

She wanted to know everything about Aiden. And when she thought that far, she had no choice but to admit it.

The fact that even if he committed anything inhumane and contrary to humanity, it would be hard to hate him. She wouldn’t have approached him in the first place if she was just afraid of it.

Vivian was not a good and just character in a novel, but a very selfish human being.

She brought up a proposition that she had long acknowledged. She can’t be the main character.

“But in fact, Aiden feels incredible beyond description. Honestly, that’s a sacrifice, right? You’re helping your brother out of sight for nothing. I’m more curious about that than you’re afraid of. Why the hell did you have to do that? It’s what you really wanted.”

“That’s a question I’ve never heard of before.”

Not knowing what to answer, the answer that came back was as slow as his tone.

“It’s just my destiny.”

“Destiny?”

“Just as His Majesty was born with the fate of the Emperor, I was born with this fate. I inherited darkness, just as the animals reproduce and continue the generation of their species, and the nobles inherit the family. It was decided from the moment I was born with black hair.”

Vivian, who was listening to him seriously, asked back in a voice that she was speechless.

“What? What’s black hair got to do with it?”

“It’s a symbol of evil. On the other hand, His Majesty’s white silver hair is very pure. Like God’s blessing.”

“It’s just a superstition, isn’t it?”

“That’s true. Perhaps Julian, or Her Majesty, would have ended in superstition if he hadn’t been born with a twin face. I might have become an emperor.”

“What does it matter if you look like twins?”

“Because twins are ominous.”

Now it was so ridiculous that she couldn’t help but be amazed. No, the ignorance of calling twins ominous was ridiculous, but does it make sense that the ominousness applies even though they are not twins but brothers who resemble twins?

It was funny to expect consistency in superstitions.

“I didn’t know the noble royal family was so superstitious.”

“Ha ha.”

“It’s nothing to laugh about! What kind of mass madness is that?! It’s crazy of the Imperial family to label their brothers as evil and urge them to live like shadows for the rest of their lives!”

Vivian insulted the Imperial family with a red face and made all kinds of angry faces, but Aiden only smiled as if he had wind in his lungs let out even though he was cursed. Like she said something very, very funny.
