As I felt every time, the servants here seemed to be much more nervous in front of Izek than when Ellenia or her father were present.

I held Izek's shoulder tightly and looked around, with the servants moving busily. It was my first time here.

"Is this your room?"

"It's shabby, but it is."

Are you being sarcastic?

My husband's place, which I had entered for the first time since I came here, was much grander than I had imagined. It wasn't as fancy as I thought, but it was a place decorated with a rustic look.

The fur on the smooth black marble floor looked fluffy.

Through the square balcony, you could see the entire view of the mansion and the city at a glance like a kaleidoscope.

There was also a shining lighthouse at the Port of Elmos.

"It's just cool. It's like a fortress."

"These days, it's a fortress."

There was no decoration on the wall. I thought there might be a portrait of his deceased mother, but nothing was found.

There wasn't even a tapestry.

I remembered his father said he liked art, but he must be different in many ways.

"My lord, it's done. M-My lady...."

"Call Ronja."

I was stunned by the servant's voice and came to my senses as I stopped looking around the room. Izek sent away all the servants and took me to the bathroom.

I was literally puzzled.

"Wow......."

As soon as I entered the hot steamy bathroom, I couldn't help but admire it. This was my husband's private bathroom. You're a real Dyke, aren't you? What bathroom is more fancy than a room?!

This wasn't just a fancy bathroom. It was a private open-air bath with hot spring water!

The gold-plated walls, high marble bath, and, above all, a large window on one wall were impressive.

The window occupied half of the wall and was covered with thick curtains.

If I soaked my body here and opened the window, the scenery would be amazing.

"Watch your step."

What was going on?

Izek left me sitting on a small staircase leading to the bathtub.

What am I supposed to do? It's safe here, so you want me to wash up safely in your bathroom?

"My lady, are you all right?"

I guess that's what it is. Why is he always out of focus? That's not what I meant!

"Oh my God. Did you hurt your foot?"

"I made some mistakes. It's okay now."

Although, my chance was gone. Ugh, my progress!

While I swallowed back the bitter tears, Ronja made a fuss over my feet and busily stripped me off.

It took time to take off the fancy dress, accessories and underwear. Her friendly and delicate touch made me feel grateful.

"I'm going to take off the bandage. They said it would be good for healing wounds with holy water."

They? Oh, the servants. It must be great to pour that precious holy water into the bathtub. What a bath for a paladin.

"Don't get hurt next time, my lady. It's a waste if your pretty feet are scarred."
