In the midst of Vio’s confusion, the maids opened the guest room door, and Viola, dressed in a blue dress, rushed into the room. Unlike her usual cheerful smile, her present expression proved grim.

“Violant, Jill already informed me of what had happened. How could Rupheus do this?! He’s too much. How did he become coldhearted enough to hit his own younger brother? Come, show me the bruise,” she said. xA48RE

The vigorous nature of Viola’s actions shocked him. He obediently allowed her to hold his face with both hands. Viola examined his left cheek, her expression pained. “It hurts, doesn’t it? I brought an ointment that works well. Apply it later. Ah, I don’t think you can show up in public for a while. Don’t leave the room until the joint training that’s three days from now, understand?”

Vio nodded, fearful of Viola’s extremely menacing look. “Y-yes…”

Vio was weak against Viola, and it was even more apparent whenever she worried about him or dressed him up. After Viola let go of his face, she directed her attention to Legion, Jill, and Rille at once, glaring intensely at them.

“How could this have happened when you were all present? Especially you, Legion Salt. You are his knight! Protect him properly!”

“I’m sorry,” said Legion.

Seeing the trio bow, Vio blurted, “But Mother, Brother’s the one at fault, right? If they did anything, their lives would have been in danger. I’m fine, so please suppress your anger.”

“Mother, please calm down! He just hit me a little. You’re exaggerating things. I’m also a man, so it’s fine.” Im4q1w

“But I’m not fine! Listen, Violant. For me, all my children are equally precious. It’s typical for the elder brother to discipline his younger brother, but Rupheus went too far. If my husband won’t protect you, then I’d have to leave him, right?”

The angry face of a beautiful woman was more impactful than others’. Overwhelmed, Vio raised both hands and said, “Y-yes. I’m sorry.”

“Can’t you get a little angry? If this happened to someone else, they would have already taken out their sword and confronted him,” she said.

“Huh… But Brother’s been like this since we were children. Isn’t it too late to do that now?”Noticing the slip of the tongue, Vio shook his head. ”Ah no, it’s nothing…” ORJehU

Staring at Vio, Viola let escape a large sigh. She pressed her fingers against her forehead, feeling a headache coming. Then she shot a glance at Legion. Beckoned to him. “Legion Salt. If Rupheus does something outrageous to this child again, protect him even if you have to draw your sword. I allow it,” she said.

“Understood,” said Legion, nodding at once.

Shocked, Vio said in a shrill voice, “Mother! If Legi does that, won’t he get punished for insubordination?”

“If that happens, I’ll have to leave the country,” said Legion. y8NHUC

“Mother…” Vio wanted to say that his brother’s bullying wasn’t a problem, but his mother wouldn’t yield. She said, “I can’t put up with this anymore. Not only are they not satisfied with driving you out into a rural town, but your brother even hit you just because His Highness came to visit you. If that fool doesn’t experience something painful once, he won’t ever understand that his actions are wrong.”

With how furious Viola appeared, Vio was unable to say anything more. He could only look around nervously. Noticing the servants looking at Viola, eyes shining with joy, he gave up trying to convince them not to worry.

I have to conduct myself properly so that I won’t stand out…

It would become a big problem if they resorted to bloodshed. Vio grew sluggish, dejected. 27CFbd

All of a sudden, Viola clapped her hands. On cue, the maids pushed in carts with books. Following that, they began stacking said books on the table.

“What is this, Mother?” Vio asked.

“You should be bored since you’re unable to leave the room, right? I’ve prepared all sorts of books here, so kill some time with them. I also heard from Jill that you have talent in magic. Study well.”

“Is it really a talent? I just find magic interesting…” oG2nEA

“Everyone has to start somewhere. You’re interested in it now, so you should develop that interest into a skill. Fifteen years old is a good age to absorb knowledge. Now is a good time to fill yourself up with information.”

“Yes…”

Viola laughed in satisfaction at Vio’s obedient nod. “I feel relieved now. Well then, I’ll be heading home since I have to prepare for the evening ball. Don’t worry about the joint training that’s coming in three days. I’ll take care of it. Also, make sure to ice your cheek, Violant. See you later.”

“Thank you very much, Mother…” ACnL8o

Once Viola had left, silence filled the room. Vio felt like a local storm had just ran through him. As he relaxed, his posture less rigid, Rille said with joy, “This is great, Master! With this, you can finally fight back!”

Jill smiled. “I feel relieved as well. I was thinking about using my last resort, but now it’s no longer necessary”

Jill’s words disturbed Vio somewhat, but Legion merely smiled thinly and muttered to himself, “I have to make sure my aim doesn’t miss him.”

“Legi, what are you saying? I want to live in peace, so refrain from doing something so extreme,” said Vio. VskoBf

All of them said they understood. However, Vio was doubtful to the max whether they would keep their promise. Then he turned to the other two knights who were standing still. “Both of you, I apologize. I’ve involved you in my family’s situation. It’s a shameful thing, so I hope you can keep it a secret.”

“…Lord Violant, you’re on bad terms with Lord Rupheus?” Lantz asked with a puzzled look.

Vio broke into a smile, the expression carrying a trace of bitterness. “I won’t answer that since it’s a private matter.”

Lantz pursed his lips, feeling awkward. Cheval appeared like he wanted to say something, but he shut his mouth in the end. TUan6m

“I’m tired,” said Vio. “I’ll rest for a short while, so I will leave the rest to you, Jill.”

“Understood. Please enjoy your rest.”

Mentally exhausted, Vio sent Jill a sidelong glance before entering his bedroom.

I told them to keep it a secret, but I’m sure they’ll report it to His Highness… Well, whatever. 1bGP6d

Since many things had already grown so troublesome, Vio decided to stop thinking about them and dove into his fluffy bed.
