When I was contacted that Fania was heard crying, it was already past midnight
The job of the chamberlains was basically divided into three shifts when serving by the master’s side. Nonetheless, I, as the grand chamberlain, would already be in my post before His Highness Alfred woke up, and would only leave after I saw him retired for the night. That was a given, and there was not particularly any problem with that.
Tonight, His Highness visited Fania-sama after a long while; all the chamberlains rejoiced over this. His Highness’s obses…..ehem, ehem affection towards Fania was very deep. Since they were little, he only had his eyes on Fania, and should I say, he is smotherin…..ehem, ehem he cherishes Fania-sama very much. Fania-sama also snuggled up to His Highness, and they had an intimate relationship.
Tonight, I saw His Highness retired into Fania-sama’s room, and I changed places with the night shift chamberlain….. But somehow that was a mistake on my side. I should have stood on standby outside the room. I wonder just what had happened?
Just like during the first time they consummated their relationship, did His Highness overdo it again?
Back then, there was also the entrance ceremony on the following day, so I bid my time and called out from outside the room, but I received no response. In the end, Fania-sama was rendered to a situation where it was unknown whether he lost consciousness or simply fell asleep after His Highness persistentl……..ehem, ehem deepened their love.
On the next day, His Highness was admonished while kneeling by Bailard-sama who was greatly infuriated; yet, His Highness only had a stupid look on his face from grinning too much which only amplified Bailard-sama’s anger.
I rushed towards Fania-sama’s room. I had no clue what had happened, but I must alleviate even a bit of Fania-sama’s distress.
“Fania-sama, Nozart here. May I enter the room?”
“Wuu, wuuuu..”
Fania-sama’s muffled cries could be heard, but I had yet to receive any permission to enter. Even the guard knight who contacted me was flustered outside here.
“Excuse me.” I was ready to be reprimanded. Regardless of how irreverent this was, and how I would be penalized for this, I could not possibly do nothing once I heard Fania-sama crying.
“Fania-sama, I am very sorry to enter without permission. You may punish me as you please later.”
When I entered the room, it was dark. I placed the candle stand I was holding on a chest near the bed. Fania was fully covered by the bed sheet as he curled up in a ball on the bed.
“Anything wrong? Is there anything that Nozart here can do to help?”
“………..Wuuuu, Al, Al is-” I was glad to hear a response from Fania-sama, albeit his voice was quite low.
When I heard Fania-sama’s words, I looked at His Highness on the bed. His Highness was…… dead asleep. Or should I say, he slept soundly with an utterly content face.
“I-I don’t know what to do….. It’s so embarrassing, but, Al is already asleep….. Wuuuu. Th-these are soiled… wuuu. It’s so embarrassing if others know about this…. I don’t want them to know. Wuuu” Without even showing his face out of the sheets, Fania-sama let out his voice faintly.
He must be so distressed. So pitiful.
“It is okay. Here, there is only… Nozart. So only… I, Nozart knows. You don’t have to bother about this Nozart, just think of me like air. So everything is okay. Just leave everything to this Nozart.” I consoled Fania-sama who shuddered in shame.
Just a little… white lie, I hoped Fania-sama would forgive me as this was for his sake.
His Highness tried really hard. He—who had his hands full with official duties and habitually said ‘This Fania-deficiency is driving me crazy’—received reports that Fania was getting uncannily close with his female classmate. I was relieved that His Highness actually managed to stop himself from crashing into Class 3 to wreak havoc there.

Afterwards, in order to clarify the truth of the matter from Fania-sama himself, His Highness handled all the work without sleep for three days straight. Then, finally tonight he could spare the time to visit Fania-sama.
Everyone around him knew that Fania-sama would never have feelings towards someone other than His Highness. Just by seeing how attached Fania-sama was to His Highness, no one would doubt it.
Thus, when His Highness finally entered Fania-sama’s room, I thought I could breathe in relief…..
His Highness must’ve been relieved of all strains after he finally managed to get intimate with Fania-sama. The fatigue from sleepless three days, the relief from knowing that Fania-sama hadn’t transferred his affection towards someone else, as well as ecstasy from being able to touch Fania-sama after a long while.
………It couldn’t be helped. I could only say that it was inevitable that this time his physical energy was less than Fania-sama. Probably after they did the deed, he must’ve slept first before Fania-sama.
During their first time, Fania-sama who passed out most likely didn’t know about the ‘post-processing’ matters. Since he was little, he was brought to live inside the Palace and no one gave him education regarding the bed matters. Well, His Highness also cherished him very dearly that he didn’t teach him about it.
For example, just what should be done with the dirtied body. What to do with the remnants left inside the body. What to do to get the bedsheets changed. Where to ask for a change of clothes. All these matters… So Fania-sama actually intended to keep them unknown from others.
Even when he shook His Highness’s body, His Highness only slept soundly without any signs of waking up. Eventually Fania-sama could only sob helplessly, I suppose.
“Just leave everything to this Nozart. There’s nothing that Fania-sama should be embarrassed about with me here.” I faced Fania who curled up into a ball of bed sheet and tried to assure him as hard as I could.
Of course, I would not spare from contacting Bailard-sama to tell him about the full account of this matter so he can rebuke His Highness afterwards.
