Arlong thought, 'Master isn't the type to show off. Why was he acting this way?

Even though Arlong was a close servant, he came from a background of a death soldier and hadn't learned to flatter, but with how obvious his master's intentions were, he had no choice but to force himself to praise. "Truly, this is an incredibly rare and exquisite item."

He meant it as a compliment, but it was also heartfelt.

Over the years, since he had been with Erik, Arlong had traveled far and wide, seen many things, but he had never seen an embroiderer with such skill. A small sachet could have such a lifelike wolf embroidered on it. It was as if the wolf would leap out if you stared at it too long.

He couldn't help but praise her again, the words flowing more smoothly, and for the first time, he realized he had a knack for flattery.

Erik listened silently, not interrupting or even nodding

Arlong couldn't tell whether his master was satisfied or not, and his heart pounded nervously. He thought. Did I praise the wrong thing!

He could tell his master wanted praise, but he wasn't sure whether it should be for the sachet or for himself.

After hesitating, he decided to try again. "Master, you're truly extraordinary, dignified and elegant. What wouldn't look good on you? It's just that you never liked decorations before. If anyone else wore this sachet, it wouldn't carry the same elegance."

Erik's brow suddenly furrowed, and he coughed loudly.

Arlong immediately fell silent. He thought, 'Alright, I got it. I'm supposed to praise the sachet

"Uh.. this sachet really matches your temperament, master. It's truly worthy of being made by the lady herself." He suddenly had an idea and changed his approach. He saw that his master's expression improved a lot.

Just as Arlong was about to keep going, Nyx raised her hand to interrupt, "Stop." "It's just an ordinary sachet." She had already had enough of such exaggerated compliments and felt so awkward she wanted to hide herself.

"No, it's not ordinary." Erik gently gripped the sachet and solemnly disagreed.

Regardless of how beautiful it was, just the thought behind it made it special to him.

But since Nyx didn't want to hear it anymore, he had no choice but to wave and dismiss Arlong. "Go ask the kitchen to send a bowl of nourishing soup, and also get some dried fruits and paper and pens."

Arlong left in response, but inwardly, he felt something was off. He thought, It's not like my master ever asks for so many things. Why is there so much to do today?"

The entire afternoon, the previously quiet courtyard was bustling, with servants coming and going. Almost everyone noticed the new, exquisite sachet hanging prominently from their young master's waist, and it quickly became the subject of gossip.

"Hey, did you see that?"

You mean the sachet? Of course, I saw it. I'm not blind"

"Is it really a sachet? I thought I was seeing things..."

"The young master never wore stuff like that before. What's going on today?"

"Teh, don't you know? It's the lady's handiwork."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a brief silence, followed by an eruption of chatter.

"What?"

"Is that true?"

"How do you know?"

"Of course it's true. Who else could have made it? The person who spoke was surrounded by curious faces, grinning as they crossed their arms. "The young master told me himself."
