The Dedicated Maid Serves Her Milady Today as Well

Monica Ashton’s Perspective

“Milady, what feelings are you expressing with that look on your face?” (Monica)

As I was waiting alone in my room, I asked Milady who had just returned from His Highness Harold’s chambers.

“I’m not sure how to interpret your question, but let me see… I suppose it’s anger toward Margaret.” (Alexandra)

“Anger…” (Monica)

“Indeed. After ignoring Haru-sama for so long, the moment she’s abandoned, she tries to kill her own son. Even if she’s the First Queen, that woman… I will never forgive her.” (Alexandra)

I see. Milady’s words are undoubtedly correct. After all, the moment she responded, her eyes turned the color of fresh blood. However…

“Is that so? Then why is it, Milady, that you are smiling so brightly?” (Monica)

“…What?” (Alexandra)

Oh? Could it be she hasn’t realized? Certainly, the power of Dragon’s Favor has been activated by her anger, but her expression is the complete opposite. The corners of her mouth are lifted, and she appears to be overjoyed from the depths of her heart. Though, truth be told, her smile is unnervingly eerie.

“I… I’m smiling… with joy?” (Alexandra)

Milady looked confused and lowered her head.

It seems she is bewildered by her inability to understand her own emotions. Ordinarily, it would be appropriate to leave her alone until she regained her composure. Unfortunately, with Dragon’s Favor active, leaving her unattended is out of the question. If, by some chance, she lost control, it would lead to a tragedy here in the royal palace. Then…

“…Yes, that’s it. I am happy.” (Alexandra)

“Milady…?” (Monica)

“Isn’t it obvious? My… my Haru-sama laid bare his entire self and entrusted himself to me! Shaking with emotion, burying his face into my chest!” (Alexandra)

Milady’s crimson eyes sparkled brilliantly, and her smile was unlike any I had ever seen, radiant and yet profoundly unsettling.

Ah, I understand now. This is an extremely dangerous situation.

“You wouldn’t know, Monica, since you weren’t with us. But Haru-sama… he called my name over and over, seeking me out. As if to say, ‘I can’t live without you’…” (Xandra)

“I see…” (Monica)

I don’t know what else to say. While there is no doubt that Dragon’s Favor is trending toward a state of frenzy, as long as His Highness Harold’s feelings remain directed solely toward Milady, the risk to him should be minimal. However, with her love for Harold escalating to its peak and her overwhelming desire to protect him breaking all limits, this situation… one misstep, and she could destroy everything in this palace. Including that scum, King Eibar, Margaret, and even Cardis’ lives.

“…If that’s the case, Milady, your responsibility is immense.” (Monica)

“Oh? And what do you mean by that?” (Alexandra)

“Yes…” (Monica)

I seated Milady on a chair and carefully explained.

While it is true that His Highness Harold cannot live without Milady, her actions could ultimately deprive him of a place in this world. At times, I praised her. At others, I was strict. I paid close attention to the fluctuations in her emotions and ensured I did not provoke her wrath. One wrong word from me could seal Harold’s fate. The stress I feel right now is no joke. I absolutely must demand a special allowance for this.

“…So, Milady, you don’t wish for His Highness Harold to become unhappy, correct?” (Monica)

“Y-Yes…” (Alexandra)

Phew… It seems my lecture, or rather, my explanation has been understood. Her eyes have returned to their original sapphire blue, and she now appears meek and subdued. Truly, this troublesome ability, or rather, this curse is beyond exasperating.

“However, His Highness Harold will surely continue to seek you out, Milady. For the sake of your bond enduring forever, I, Monica, will fully support you. Please continue to take care of him as well.” (Monica)

“O-Of course! If Haru-sama remains by my side, I will do… anything…!” (Alexandra)

Yes, of course. With Milady’s Dragon’s Favor, the destruction of the Dehauvaltz Kingdom would be an effortless task.

Your Highness Harold… Monica Ashton has protected your world with all her might. Therefore, just a fraction… no, even one-hundredth of Milady’s favor will suffice. Please, grant me even a sliver of your affection.

For that alone would fill me with the greatest happiness imaginable.

      Spoken like a true edgelord. You can’t just kill her off because, there’s no “actual” proof of an assassination attempt. Another thing she *has* family that does love her and thus a war would start in spite of it being an internal affair. Third, it would most likely bring down the wrath of the king and then what? Murder the king too? Murder the country until no one disagrees? How many corpses would you have to pile up before it was enough? Finally, Margret is *his* mother not Wilfred’s. So I’m not sure how murdering Wilfred would have solved any of this. Death has consequences in real life and if the author is actually good at writing then death needs to have consequences in the story. You can kill off the “disposable pawns” but, it takes a lot more planning to get rid of any masterminds because of fallout.
