Chapter 106: The Values of Each (2)
She hoped he would stay longer.
He did not want them to have high expectations of him, because in the future they had to relate to Leonhard. He didnt need to get more involved with the imperial family.
I would like to leave now. I enjoyed spending time with you.
Dersen broadly smiled.
I enjoyed the conversation, too.
It looked like Dersen wanted him to leave now.
Han Seong was pleased with the result.
He established a good relationship with them, but not too close.
I liked the conversation too. Melua, please accompany Han Seong to the door.
Rachel said reluctantly. The maid guided him towards the exit.
He looked at the maid as they walked. She had short blue hair that was more dark than Glesias. She looked quite graceful for a maid.
He wondered if she came from a noble family.
Maids in this world could belong to nobility.
A maid serving the imperial family must have had a higher origin than a Earldom. Because a person of insignificant status could not be close to the royal family or high rank nobility. Its natural.
Even the maid in the bathroom must have come from a noble family.
Suddenly, he met her gaze. Posted only on NovelUtopia
He thought he had to say something.
Do you want to ask me?
She spoke first, he shook his head.
No. I seem to have looked at you too long. Im sorry.
No need to apologize. I thought you wanted to tell me something.
Then he averted his gaze.
He wished to stop thinking about this issue, maybe due to the mental fatigue he experienced from the continuous pressure of interacting with the royal family.

The room where Han Seong had left.
Rachel let out a long sigh.
Brother.
What?
She called out to him sharply. Dersen was startled.
Why didnt you want him to have dinner with us?
We talked for almost two hours with Han Seong. Thats enough.
He indifferently spoke.
Besides, it was his own decision to leave.
I believe you influenced him with your gaze.
Dersen frowned.
No. Im sure he wanted to leave. But isnt there a big difference between us that cant be ignored? We dont have to get along with Han Seong.
He tried to persuade her. Rachel felt frustrated.
Her brothers last words provoked her anger.
This world has been changing for a long time.
The imperial family maintained its power, but it was an archaic idea to worry about status. Countless commoners had become famous, proved they deserved better status through their performance.
Moreover, the battlefront was becoming more and more dangerous.
It was beneficial to build a friendly relationship with Han Seong.
Although he had a common grade attribute, his growth potential seemed infinite.
So who in this world is good for us? How many people are qualified to interact with us on equal terms?
Persons belonging to the nobility. Also the Pillars of the Empire and mages of high rank. They fit our prestige.
Her brothers reply seemed foolish to her.
The old ideas were firmly embedded in his mind. He could not expand his horizons to accept more people.
She was worried that her brother, who would ascend to the supreme position of Emperor in the future, would evaluate people with such narrow-mindedness.
Lineage was not everything.
There were incompetent people in the imperial family itself.
She would like everyone to be outstanding, but the reality was different.
She anticipated that this subject would lead to many disputes with her brother later on.
Brother. Lets have dinner separately tonight.
Rachel!
See you tomorrow.
She got up from her seat.
She had Han Seong in her thoughts when she walked out.
She had talent.
And great confidence.
Her brother didnt know Han Seongs true value.
She was very disappointed.
