Seeing her hesitation, Aron stepped forward and waved the person away, scolding, "Go away! Who do you think you are, to serve the lady?"

He thought, 'Where did this young, naive boy come from, trying to climb up the social ladder and serve someone so important?'

Given Nyx's position with Aurelius, only Aurelius's personal eunuch, like him, was fit to serve her. Anything less would be disrespectful.

As Aron bent his knee to prepare to kneel, the "little eunuch" he had just dismissed suddenly looked up, revealing a face Aron never expected to see.

Immediately, Aron nearly gasped in shock, "His... Majesty?"

The people around them all looked straight ahead, pretending they didn't see anything.

Aurelius, dressed in palace attire, knelt beside the carriage, his broad back straight as he acted as a footstool, allowing others to step on him to get out of the carriage.

This absurd scene made anyone who caught a glimpse of it nervous for their own safety, and no one dared to look any longer.

Aron felt his head spinning.

Every time he thought he had prepared himself, Aurelius would surprise him with something even more shocking.

In the past, the empress had been deeply favored by the late emperor, so much so that he even disbanded the six palaces for her, treating her like his sole wife.

That was the extent of what he could imagine for a favored concubine.

But no matter how much a husband might pamper his wife, Aron had never heard of one kneeling so humbly for her.

In the heavy silence, Nyx stared at Aurelius for a moment, then, without hesitation, stepped onto his solid back.

As soon as she landed, she was immediately lifted into the air, cradled horizontally in Aurelius's arms.

Aurelius had a joyful smile on his handsome face, his eyes full of warmth and happiness.
