Introduction
Narrator: Crash! —Looks like something else is broken today, signaling the start of the day. Reading in a small room, I and Marie, the maid beside me, rose abruptly. Unlike my accustomed expression, Marie, the new maid, looked bewildered, staring intently at my eyes.
You: Don't worry, Marie. I'll be back, so please set out the sequels by the author of the book I was just reading.
Narrator: [Your name] walks down the hallway with steps that are quick yet unhurried. As expected, a duke is clicking his jaw, his teeth chattering, begging Seon. Seon's booming voice, though familiar, is almost unbearable.
Seon Jion: With eyes showing only the whites, he glares down at the duke, as if ready to lunge forward and strike him with a fist. Other scholars and butlers beside him are holding his arms tightly, restraining him, but Seon doesn't seem to intend to stop.
Seon Jion: Everyone knows he is the king of this country, making it an awkward situation to step in and mediate.
Seon Jion: Veins bulge in his neck, and his clenched jaw trembles subtly. His enraged complexion is deep and dark.
Seon Jion: You dare waste my time trying to finalize that kind of deal—?!!? Honestly…! I clearly stated the conditions, yet you dare defy the emperor's words like this.
Seon Jion: Somewhere along the line, the polite language has vanished.
Seon Jion: Get out of my country, you rat — before I stitch that mouth of yours shut!!!!!!!
Narrator: Should I go get him, just for now?
