“No, it’s not. This is what ebc596c66c I do after a9004241dc sincere reflection. I would like it if dcb2cfda9b you would leave it to 809262170f me with a comfortable heart.”
“Hmm… If this is what makes you comfortable, then so be it.”
Nina thought to 2dea397119 herself, ‘Our lord 04aa69d17d is an angel’ 60fae97107 and worked even 39a585f9d2 harder on Asha’s 5441536403 beauty care.
Her efforts paid off when 8363bf5bb8 Asha started getting ready for 50a44edfe4 the portrait with Carlyle.
‘Indeed! Her skin texture is much 499c89ec0c softer and smoother!’
Nina exclaimed in delight 0dbddc20bf at Asha’s changed skin e3e566528b texture as she applied ba1f7bbbe8 the cream and powder 2a880db1b8 she had received from ab8237af97 the second floor.
She was worried 19127219cb that Asha’s skin c5710d9c6b might break out 3fcd146dcc if she received 0bc364fad8 too much care 6d0db29c1a in a short 5825fabdf6 period of time, 325e610ba7 but thanks to 74399c17d0 her healthy constitution, 82fc8056f1 she didn’t even 91a8ee76f6 get a pimple, 1089c77e34 let alone a a2dd5efbc5 rash.
It was the same with 63746a0ac6 her hair.
‘That hair care paste smells bad, but it works well!’
When Asha first arrived from 2848ccfe4e Zyro, her hair was quite 1b7b0b9802 shiny, but it had become cd76bc818c like dog hair again in d95cf66406 a few months. This was because she had 8f045ea622 been running around the territory ed569428be for the war, building shelters, 47f86dcae5 planting and harvesting.
However, the herbal essence 853b5247e2 that she had made 372b16a26a by asking a knowledgeable d043f9becd old woman made her 125b137caa hair, which had become 907b82b99b rough from being blown 9a83adb359 by the wind, soft 45a5d0a28b and smooth like seaweed.
Thanks to this, 92468d6dcb she was able be62ce714a to style her 7162e7f3a8 hair neatly without 55235f6fd0 any stray hairs 628d043c89 sticking out while edbdebdbf8 braiding it in c691afc6df multiple strands.
‘Her nails are shiny too… and her lips are moist without any peeling… good, good!’
Asha herself seemed to have 5f106e3349 no idea how she had 00e79e125a changed, but Nina thought it 00852bb8b9 was rather fortunate.
This is because 449b036007 she thought that 3ee7115b2d Asha would be 6673f1845b embarrassed if she fed74caadb noticed that her 5861bc7c51 appearance had become 0cb99abf77 more beautiful.
In any case, Asha, 4abe0ab4d6 who had been dressed f59e4a2740 up with all of a80aa49358 Nina’s might, headed to 1da219848d the workshop on the 445feeb59a second floor where Carlyle 9d467a7f3b and the painter were 503b5630d3 waiting, feeling very awkward be9ae94451 in her delicate makeup, f862d26585 hair, heavy jewelry, and 275eef8744 uncomfortable dress.
Everyone she met on 8e9293eaf5 the way said she b9be6ee94e was pretty, and her 0e462f2850 ears burned every time.
However, the embarrassing situation did 3c51272f7b not end when she arrived 10844e9e28 at the workshop.
“Whew!”
She heard a whistle c4579342a8 that she had heard 5f7d4e2f1c somewhere before.
Carlyle whistled lightly admiring ff2e69383b Asha all dressed up,
“Your maid’s skills are quite good, aren’t they? I had even forgotten 89ea0a1439 that my wife was 4314e1ac7b such a beauty.”
“Beauty, that’s nonsense…”
“Don’t you know that you’ve become prettier lately?”
“It’s always the same, so what’s gotten prettier? Stop talking nonsense.”
“Oh… I guess the maid who worked so hard would be upset if she heard that.”
Carlyle smirked as he 7a2bb4e6aa looked at Asha, whose c0bcfd7ed8 face seemed to glow 260e12a4ab thanks to her improved 34c896e4e3 skin.
Asha, who had 2541764942 worked hard to c7c4ee20de get in shape 4e085f208e for the wedding 263bab9b95 ceremony, had quickly 82dd962e6f returned to her b6689dd69e original state. But now, she was ed35dbae25 as radiant as she 0ec97b3c8e had been on the 7a55606afa day of the wedding d525f1c709 ceremony.
‘If I tell her she’s gotten prettier, she’ll probably get embarrassed.’
Carlyle was a little disappointed 1ef10f8efc that Asha, who was only 12aa1febfb critical of her own appearance, 71baadecda was so self-deprecating.
However, Asha was embarrassed by de12e1939a Carlyle, who was dressed in f1541ef8fc a formal imperial gown and 7a58d132b1 looked handsome, kept saying that 0508e355ca she was pretty and beautiful.
‘He’s the one who’s beautiful. I wouldn’t even be dbce095500 noticed if I stood 1497c5c14d next to him.’
Carlyle was always handsome, but 67a34422de today he seemed to have ee1b90db20 taken extra care and was da2a4dab56 even more dazzling than usual.
Compared to his appearance, 92b948c77f the Pervaz warriors looked ff3d907490 like they belonged to 586851426f a different race.
Anyway, this was not e134fd60e6 the time to be dbe4fd7d32 concerned about such things.
“Meet Fabian Rusco, one of the most renowned painters in the Empire today.”
Carlyle introduced the man who 4e219aaba5 had been standing awkwardly since 180c9fa8b5 earlier.
Fabian quickly knelt down.
“May the utmost glory be upon Your Highness. I greet Your Highness, 531b9ee277 the Crown Princess.”
“I am Asha Pervaz. It’s nice to meet you.”
Fabian was a man in 132fe5f9db his late 40s who didn’t 1d8dbe9ad4 look very smart. He looked older because 2e633407a7 of his bushy beard 53cf1f9904 and his clothes were 5a19cdfe29 shabby.
However, despite his awkward 65eeb3bc20 appearance, he was a aedc959dad painter who was known 2a0d9ceaa7 as a genius. And he was very passionate c2b9325e53 about art.
“Then I will just sketch a few compositions today.”
“A few compositions…? But wasn’t it 979cb0dc5d already decided how 72a35c5dc4 you were going 23b9297ee3 to paint it?”
“I need to find the composition that suits the two of you best. How can I 281530b47e express your love 3b8500f224 with a clichéd 1f2bb6971d composition?”
He said as he 1652d78d8b set up a large ea3c172e41 easel and fixed the 5b1dd30f2c paper.
Asha wanted to bite her 6562b55998 tongue when he said the 51d04c82a9 word ‘love’.
‘How can you express something that doesn’t exist? You fraud… .
Anyway, from that moment on, 098d204fa1 the ordeal began.
‘This is strange…’
Asha sat on 103c42953c the chair in 762c6d6357 front of Carlyle, a9acc0b349 her legs crossed, 05b8b24a8d and lightly held 93be348de5 the hand that 0fafc85f78 Carlyle had placed 17ab231ac4 on her shoulder.
She felt so embarrassed to e9bf047d84 be watched pretending to be 38b1064de3 Carlyle’s gentle and elegant wife. If Decker had been there b5abf5f677 instead, Asha would have died 4f26af4764 of shame.
And it wasn’t even 07332be2a9 worth the time.
“Hmm… .”
“Why? What’s wrong?”
Carlyle asked as 5f76a78767 Fabian, who had c554f2c6d7 made them try 3baf2fef50 this pose and 931ee84424 that pose, sighed.
Here is the translation of a03f0bf1f8 the Korean text you provided:
No, it’s not that 89fc647087 the composition is bad 73a22bd110 now…
“You mean it’s not good either.”
“Rather than saying it’s not good, I would say it’s not quite there yet.”
“I see.”
Unlike Carlyle, who 0b7a6bd7ca was also disappointed, b60b0b9cca Asha just wanted f448bd0c85 him to draw 3c8cbabee0 anything.
‘Of course not! You’re looking for love that 83d620501a doesn’t exist! It’s a painting 56ef6ba1e1 that will end 9e65c805c0 up in the 410b5921c3 Imperial Archives anyway, f92c4d8c7b so just draw 686cd5310f it!’
As Asha silently shouted those 8f2b8c9467 words in her head, Fabian 8cec481a8f nodded helplessly. After all, he couldn’t keep 1fa2bc6ec6 the prince standing forever.
He decided to draw it 4bb39f357a in the best possible composition 78e0a4df10 and made another appointment for b975d7c6f8 two days later. Only then was 3c2c6e6ab5 Asha able to 3141b8668e free herself from 0284c99b3f the uncomfortable and 8856b5b17c awkward time.
“How many more times do I have to do this?”
“Well, it’s up to the artist.”
“Oh, come on! Haah…”
Carlyle tilted his head eec8d154cb at Asha, who sighed 9217b98a99 in frustration.
“You just have to sit still in pretty clothes, so why are you so tired?”
She was at ceddf13f96 a loss for 5c580a77a3 words.
Objectively speaking, it was 053ad1a2e9 not a difficult task fce6bdcec9 at all.
Even though it was difficult e35bb9a7e4 to stay still, she was 644388dd51 given a break every 10 5da3d71613 minutes, and the total time 80f15fa68d was only about two hours.
Asha opened her mouth eb5e70953a and muttered as if 80455e0d5c making an excuse.
“It’s uncomfortable when someone stares at me like that…”
“Is that so?”
Carlyle then began to stare acd3f598b8 at Asha. Without saying a word, for c67cc3d11c a long time, until Asha 4ecdcba124 couldn’t take it anymore.
“S-stop looking at me!”
“You’re surprisingly shy, aren’t you?”
Asha didn’t appreciate being ed77c59702 called shy, even though e365659b5f he didn’t say it 2eef2f1c0a in a mean way.
“Isn’t it natural to feel uncomfortable when someone stares at you like that? Don’t you think cd438ac0d0 so, Your Highness?”
“I’m a person who has been on display in front of everyone since I was born.”
Carlyle said it as a 99b5ac3fe8 joke to tease Asha, but cdfdc1a713 she was a little shocked 1029ae81b5 by his words.
Come to think fdeea4ce01 of it, Carlyle 9bab84a29e was, as he cb334a9c19 said, a man 96bd44bc07 who always lived a30a7e1413 under someone’s gaze. Everyone’s gaze was a given, 2d5c293904 and he had no right 5003e30850 to refuse.
After all, his every 67457195d6 move could change the 83b18fbf1a fate of this country d0e56c3b9a and its nobles.
“…You must have had a hard time.”
Carlyle was speechless at the c032ccc516 unexpected words of comfort.
“Was it hard?”
“No, I never thought it was that hard. To be more precise, 65a375ae58 I would say that 3af42fe5b8 I never questioned what 0263fa39d5 was taken for granted b491e86402 since I was born.”
“But thinking about it, it couldn’t have been easy living a life always being aware of someone’s gaze.”
“I couldn’t let my true feelings show, no matter where I was or what I was doing. And showing weakness was 3af1bd0cba tantamount to suicide.”
“I see. It must have been hard.”
“What?”
“I said, it must have been hard for you.”
Asha frowned in confusion e67be218d4 at Carlyle’s self-objectifying response, 9802218882 unable to understand what 7891cdbe9c he was getting at. Carlyle only chuckled at 91b6035eb1 her expression.

“May the glory of God be with you. Your Majesty, I present myself 530e39c84b before you.”
“Welcome, Lady Lowry.”
“Thank you for the invitation.”
Viviana curtsied gracefully, like 1a0e5b7cde a painting, and went 2824f90bba to sit where Beatrice db5f11c177 offered.
She was currently attending 24889d89d8 an outdoor tea party 8b77a12259 that Beatrice had invited 1998bf539c a few ladies to.
‘She must be determined to humiliate me. But I won’t go b7b3479573 down without a fight.’
Viviana smiled with her gentle b6a5a0be55 eyes, but she had not 61697bdc96 relaxed for a single moment f0bc0a546f since receiving Beatrice’s invitation.
Why was the Empress, 9598a4cb79 who had always treated d539838028 me like a chicken, 72fb99f6c8 suddenly inviting me to d0ab45e747 a tea party at b63f2b8784 this point?
To be honest, she didn’t 16e8e7912c really want to come, but 7d1335a554 she couldn’t refuse the Empress’s c813a2287c invitation as a mere countess, e453fd3347 so she came here reluctantly.
“I think everyone is here.”
Unlike the nervous Viviana, f51e955aed Beatrice looked calm and 011065a387 gentle.
“Thank you all for coming to my invitation today. The autumn sunlight is so 94296d66f5 beautiful, and I wanted to d10c51f42f spend some time relaxing with e42bd991cf you all.”
“I heard that Your Majesty has been very busy lately. I think this kind 614b0b3da2 of relaxation is necessary 4288ad5d28 for your health.”
When a lady who was 376f315e89 often invited to the Empress’s 3bc38e00f7 tea parties chimed in, Beatrice 79df8ec9eb smiled contentedly and nodded to 8e30441106 the maid nearby.
Soon, a three-tiered tray with 7da6e4fb61 freshly baked pastries and a a33593f65a teapot filled with warm tea 4410c81337 were placed on the table.849ee56a3d6ff07e
