Chapter 133

“Wow
!”

“They really built this place extravagantly.”

“How much money did they spend on it?”

Even from the boat, Sunset Vale’s luxury was obvious.
Leonhard and Sylvester were astonished, but Luciard and Hestia, who did not think well of Malrus, appeared unimpressed.

“My uncle and aunt are over there
”

Sylvester looked especially thoughtful. He imagined his family enjoying themselves there, and he had a complicated expression—both curious and a little sad, maybe wishing he were there too.

“Want to take a closer look?”

Hestia handed him a telescope. Sylvester thanked her and looked through it at Sunset Vale. It was so clear, it felt like he was right there.
He could see people walking by the beach and dining outdoors.
He wondered if he could spot the Duke Florence family among them.

“Oh!”

He did.

“Did you find them?”

“Yeah! Gabriel and Chloe are on the hotel terrace. Looks like they’re having a fun conversation.”

Unlike Sylvester, who was happy to see them enjoying their time, Hestia and Luciard frowned upon hearing the Florence siblings’ names.
But Sylvester didn’t notice their reactions.
He continued watching Gabriel laugh heartily at something Chloe said and wondered what the joke was.

‘I wish I could be there too.’

But if he went over, Chloe would probably leave, and Gabriel wouldn’t be laughing like that.
Knowing Chloe disliked him, Sylvester quietly pushed down his feelings.

Then, the door opened and Lasie appeared.
Gabriel and Chloe soon went inside.

Sylvester didn’t see Acid, but he was relieved to spot Lasie at least.
He lowered the telescope.

“All done. Looks like they’re enjoying their vacation.”

“We could ask the captain to get us closer.”

“No, they’re heading inside now. I just wanted to check if they’re doing okay, so I’m done.”

He told the others they could do as they pleased now.

“Then let’s head back.”

As the sun began setting, the sky darkened.

Hestia looked around for Max, when a sudden flash of light caught her eye.

“
What’s that?”

She turned to see a signal light coming from Sunset Vale, flashing toward them.

“Is something wrong?”

“No, it’s nothing serious. Are you finished sightseeing?”

“Yeah, thanks.”

“This was the last patrol zone, so we’ll return to the navy base now.”

Max gave orders, and the ship turned back.
Once they moved away, the signal light stopped.

“Commander, what were they signaling just now?” Leonhard asked curiously.

“I heard people communicate using lights by the sea. Were they asking for help?”

“Ah
”

Max looked awkward.

Sensing something was off, Hestia said,
“Don’t worry, just tell us honestly. What’s going on?”

“Well
 they were urging us to leave the Sunset Vale area quickly.”

“What?”

“They always insist that our navy ships ruin the view, and they don’t want us anywhere near their coastline.”

“What the hell?”

“That’s ridiculous!”

Sylvester and Leonhard were shocked, but Hestia wasn’t surprised.

‘In my past life, they even tried to move the navy base.’

She had managed to stop them, but still


‘This is how they end up ruining themselves.’

“I noticed a huge wall near the base. Was that their doing too?”

“Yes
 Count Humphrey’s side built it, saying they didn’t want the navy base to be visible.”

“Why didn’t you report this earlier?”

“It was tricky. The wall is technically on their land, so we couldn’t say much.”

Typical Malrus—manipulative and sneaky.

“You were only able to patrol today because of us. It’s been two weeks since your last one, right?”

“Yes, until now we could only observe from a distance
”

Hestia noticed how tired Max looked.
‘At first, I worried that stopping the base relocation might change the future too much
 but no. Malrus stays true to itself.’

“I actually wanted to discuss this. If we can’t patrol, it’ll delay our response in emergencies. Is there any way to persuade Count Humphrey?”

“I doubt he outright banned it.”

“No
 he said if anything happens, they’ll handle it themselves.”

So basically, they wouldn’t hold the navy responsible for any incidents.

“Did you get that in writing?”

“Not yet
”

“You should. If he changes his story later, he could blame you.”

Max looked a bit confused.
She didn’t seem too angry about Count Humphrey blocking patrols.

“Important guests must be there now, and they’re probably mad to see navy ships.”

“
I think he’ll come to complain tomorrow. What should I do?”

“I’ve got a plan. We’ll talk about it tomorrow. For now, it’s late.”

Hestia smiled, saying the ocean view was nice, and Max just scratched his head in confusion.


 

Meanwhile, just as Hestia’s group had arrived at Sunset Vale…

Gabriel and Chloe were relaxing on the terrace.
It was their first vacation as a whole family in the south.

At first, they enjoyed the food, hotel, and massages, but after four days, it was getting boring.
There was a casino, but it wasn’t their thing, so they stopped going.
Still, the scenery was beautiful.

As the sea turned orange under the sunset, Gabriel sighed sentimentally.

“I wish we could see Tia while we’re down here.”

“Pfft
! Ugh, you made me spit my drink. My dress is ruined.”

Chloe had choked on her drink.
Gabriel ignored her and kept dreaming.

If other noble girls had seen him like this, they might’ve swooned.
But next to him was only his sister, who always argued with him.

“When did you two get close enough to use nicknames? Did she even say you could call her that?”

“She’ll be my woman someday. Might as well practice now.”

Chloe rolled her eyes.

“Seriously? I thought your obsession would last a couple months, but it’s been two years! Time to give up.”

“I didn’t expect this either. She’s just
 so fierce.”

‘Sorry, I have other plans.’
‘I’m tired today. Maybe next time.’
‘I’m engaged. This makes me uncomfortable.’

Gabriel remembered all the cold things Hestia had said to him and smiled.

“I’ve never met a woman who rejects me this much.”

“You know she’s getting married soon, right?”

“Married?”

“Yeah, they’ve been engaged for two years. It’s about time.”

Chloe turned to look at her brother—he was suddenly laughing like crazy.

“Hahaha! You’re so naive, Chloe. They’re never getting married.”

“What?”

“The whole engagement is fake.”

Chloe was shocked into silence. Gabriel laughed so hard he cried.

“A fake engagement? People have gossiped about that, but they act like such a perfect couple
”

“They overdo it. Too much public affection—it’s unnatural.”

Neither Hestia nor Luciard are the type to show love openly, yet they always act affectionate in public.
Gabriel had even seen moments where their smiles seemed forced or their actions became awkward—like they were acting.

“Why would they pretend?”

“I don’t know, but I’m sure the act will end soon.”

“How do you know?”

“Because that illegitimate guy is getting more power in the duchy.”

Before, Hestia had appeared in public as the guardian, but now Luciard was showing up more.

“They’re probably stalling until Luciard takes over officially. That girl is impressive—I don’t chase her for no reason.”

Gabriel had looked into Hestia’s past.
He discovered something shocking.

“She practically built up Frost and Winston herself.”

“What? That’s ridiculous. Winston has always been powerful. How could she build it?”

Exactly the reaction he expected.

But Chloe overlooked something: Winston had once almost collapsed after losing its leader.

‘A lot of people tried to take advantage of that.’

But Hestia fought off all their schemes and made Winston self-sufficient again.
She even achieved more than the former duke ever had.

“It’s complicated. You wouldn’t understand.”

Was she really a Florence, with such a narrow view?
Gabriel was suddenly embarrassed by his sister.

“Sounds like you’re just making excuses to like her. Come on—she’s a commoner. You think someone like her suits us?”

“Didn’t you used to chase after that illegitimate guy?”

“That was in the past! And even if they break up—are you seriously thinking of marrying her?”

“Marry?”

Gabriel snorted.

“No way. As you said, she’s a commoner.”

“At least you’re still sane.”

“I’ll be emperor someday. A commoner can’t be my empress. But maybe
 I could take her as a concubine. She loves politics, so I’d use her skills well—within my golden cage.”

Chloe gave him a knowing look.
“Figures.”

“That person.” With that one sentence, Hestia unexpectedly became the guardian of the heir to the Duke of Winston. The problem was that this heir was the villain who killed her in her past life! After being unjustly mu*dered and reincarnated, she had been diligently building her family’s power, but the result was becoming the guardian of a future villain. There’s no helping it; since it has come to this, she must prevent Leonhard from becoming a villain and save her own life. And she must never get involved again! As time passed, she eliminated the reasons for Leonhard to become a villain and diligently fulfilled her role as a guardian. “Tia, Tia. Look! I drew our family! You’re part of my family too!” Leonhard began to genuinely follow her. “Hestia, don’t leave. We
 no, I still need you.” Leonhard’s uncle, who had hidden away before her reincarnation, now won’t let her go. Now it’s your turn to be the guardian! I just want to live comfortably!
