The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

Although Aarons himself did not intend to compromise with the power of the great nobles, there was still a hurdle in his heart that he had not overcome.

- If Claire later finds out that he is not the Aarons she knew in the past, will she still fight against the rules of the nobility for herself?

"Teacher Jiangyue said earlier that she has arranged a flying car to pick us up. It should be here in a while."

However, after leaving the mansion, the princess remained silent. Even if Aarons took the initiative to talk to her, he would only receive an absent-minded response.

…Perhaps she was touched by the other party’s words.

The empire's nobles did abide by certain rules of the game. Although they were not fair, they at least maintained the normal operation of the country.

The emperor's strategy of marrying the princess to the descendants of the new nobles and letting the honorary nobles fight for the territory is also likely to shake the current order.

If the nobles start fighting for power again, the current balance may be broken - Her Royal Highness the Princess can certainly understand this and knows what those people want.

So what choice will she make?

"Senior... no, Aarons Moti, I want to ask you a few questions."

When the two walked out of the gate of Marvell, Claire immediately took off her camouflage robe and returned to the black dress she was wearing originally.

However, before Aarons could figure out what to say next, she suddenly took a few steps forward and closed the distance between them.

But after turning to face Aarons, the princess' tone suddenly became cold.

"The nobles pursue powerful bloodlines, and the strong men born from them will become the cornerstone of order. So I want to ask you, what's wrong with the rules that person said?"

"…Your Highness actually asked such a question."

Aarons knew that this was not a question - if Her Royal Highness really agreed with that person's statement, then she would not ask what she thought.

He already had the answer to this question in his mind.

"He is not wrong. The rules of the nobles do have a reason to exist. This country does need more strong people to maintain order, and the nobles also hope to have strong descendants to inherit their family business."

——However, just as Aarons directly refuted the other party’s reasons before, there is actually a key flaw in this righteous argument.

"But is Her Royal Highness the Princess really necessary to maintain the rules? Will this so-called rule and order collapse without the participation of Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"…Of course I have an obligation to safeguard the interests of the empire."

"Don't you think Her Royal Highness has the right to choose? Even if she willfully abandons this duty, this country will not decline because of her choice, right?"

Although it is useful, it is not necessary - if I have to put it more simply, the planet will continue to rotate even if everyone is gone.

The nobles' rules do have a righteous cause, but whether or not the princess is involved will have no impact on them.

They were just greedily coveting the princess's talent and wanted to use her bloodline to leave more powerful descendants for themselves so that their family could continue to control power and wealth.

"And Her Royal Highness once said that she wanted me to see her willfulness. I remember it clearly."

"……Ah."

The cold and distant feeling was suddenly broken by a chuckle, and the masked Claire walked lightly in front of Aarons, even closer than before.

"Didn't you say before that you are no longer the senior I knew in the past?"

"Ah... that's right."

Although he didn't care about what others thought, Aarons was still a little nervous when it came to this key issue.

What Claire likes is the Aarons Moti of the past, and she is just an actor wearing that role - even if the identity of this character is real, it is still a deception after all.

——And when the moment comes when the lie is finally exposed, how much damage will you cause to that relationship?

"Then please tell me...can I like you as you are now?"

"……what?"

"My senior in the past also tolerated my willfulness like this. And now you are different from then, but you did the same thing."

The same thing... Did I unknowingly make the same choice as that disappeared young master?

"So answer me, can I now let go of my childhood admiration and fall in love with someone who is different from me then?"

——How should I answer this question?

No? Is it true that a person can only fall in love with the first person he meets in his life?

No, everyone has the right to make a new choice. When the dreams of youth gradually fade with the passage of time, it means that it is time for new people to take their place.

Even without any emotional experience, Aarons knew this simple truth.

"Shouldn't we ask the willful princess herself about this matter?"

"Then will the person that Her Highness Princess has chosen on her own initiative make her regret it in the future?"

"After all, that person is extremely weak, so we can only do our best."

After understanding Claire's thoughts, Aarons' confusion and anxiety gradually dissipated.

It doesn't matter even if the current self is not Aarons Moti himself, because the one Claire finally chose is him as he is now - another person whose soul comes from another world and who is similar only in appearance and name.

Therefore, there is no need for me to be afraid of anything anymore.

"Then my fiancé, please listen carefully. Since you have accepted my power, tolerated my willfulness, and acknowledged my feelings, I will also tell you the truth that I have been hiding."

"If that's the case, then I'll tell you my secret, too."

Now that things have come to this, I am no longer qualified to escape.

No matter what happens next, he will never regret it - although Aarons is not a great man, he has never regretted his choice.

"My Lord Marquis! Your Highness Princess! I'm here to take you back to Moti City!"

However, it was a pity that the flying car that arrived at the scheduled time landed beside the two of them at an inopportune time, breaking the atmosphere that was beginning to change.

"In that case, let's go back today. After you call everyone over, we can exchange our secrets."

Seeing Klia jumping into the flying car with light steps, Aarons seemed to have finally let go of a worry and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I really... lost completely."
