Rose's consciousness returned as she felt strong yet delicate hands embracing her from behind.

"You're a prince, and I'm just a servant who has been raped in the past. I'm not foolish enough to believe I hold a place in your heart," she admitted, her voice quivering with a vulnerability she rarely showed. Tears slowly welled up in Rose's eyes.

"Besides, you needn't worry about my feelings. I'm not a weak woman," she added, trying to muster a hint of strength in her voice. Tears began to trickle down Rose's cheeks.

Even as she laughed, she couldn't help but think about her situation. A middle-aged servant woman, who had been raped and even had a son—how could such an existence be worthy of seeing a great prince like Daniel in her lifetime?

'And yet, here we are. Not only do I have a close relationship with such a prince, but we even shared an intimate moment just a few hours ago. Isn't this amusing'

Daniel, in turn, was not surprised by her words; Rose's words were undeniably correct. Normally, a woman like her would never even get close to him in her lifetime. The social divide between them was vast, but that didn't matter to him when it came to Rose.

But what made Rose so exceptional? She was sweet, devoted, and loyal, willing to go to great lengths for the one she loved. It was these qualities that had drawn Daniel to her in the first place, qualities that transcended societal boundaries and touched the depths of his heart.

Daniel had no intention of leaving Rose; he planned to take her with him even after parting ways with the Schneitz family. He saw in her a kindred spirit, someone who understood the complexities of life and love. Rose had become more than just a servant; she was now an integral part of his life.

Speaking of the Schneitz family, his plans to exert control over them were finally bearing fruit. His meticulous scheming and strategic maneuvers had brought him to this point, where he was on the cusp of achieving his ultimate goal. The thought of it filled him with a sense of accomplishment, but it was Rose who occupied his thoughts at this moment.

"I don't care about your status or your past. My love for you is enough to move mountains and oceans," Daniel addressed Rose without any formalities for the first time. His words were a testament to the depth of his feelings, a promise of unwavering devotion.

He wasn't lying; for the woman he truly loved, he'd go to great lengths. Of course, this only applied to someone like Eva, whom he truly loved. As for societal positions and roles, they mattered little to him, except perhaps for prostitutes, whom he regarded with a mix of pity and indifference.

Rose's heart trembled upon hearing his assertive words. Daniel's tone convinced her that he would do anything for the person he loved. But did Daniel love her? The mere thought made her heart race, and her cheeks flushed with warmth.

"But what about your family? Other people? They'll ridicule you for loving a woman like me," Rose whispered.

"People? People love to mock and humiliate. If they discover that the prince of the most powerful empire in the world loves a woman like you, there will be consequences," Daniel explained, his commitment clear. He had thought this through; he was willing to face the world's judgment for the sake of their love.

Rose's flicker of hope dimmed once more. The weight of societal expectations bore down on her, threatening to crush the fragile bud of happiness that had begun to bloom in her heart. But Daniel reassured her, his words carrying a sense of authority and determination.

"Well? Since when do the gods care about the words of ants? About my family... well, the situation is peculiar, so you needn't worry," Daniel said, his voice resolute. He had faced challenges and opposition throughout his life, and this was just another hurdle to overcome.

"Really?" Rose turned her head and looked at Daniel, her eyes filled with happiness and longing, her happiness clear.

"Of course." Then Daniel hugged her completely, and Rose didn't resist. She rested her head on Daniel's chest while sitting on his lap.

If Daniel didn't care, then why should she? Daniel was willing to do all this for her. The barriers around her heart shattered at this moment, and a figure was engraved on it—an enduring symbol of their love.

A beautiful smile appeared on her face as she thought of the future—a future with Daniel, playing with their children, their love transcending the boundaries of class and status.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere around Daniel changed, and his consciousness appeared in a starry sky.

"Show notifications," Daniel said in a casual tone, and several blue floating screens appeared in front of him.

[Congratulations to the host for winning Elena Belfort's heart]

[Congratulations to the host for capturing Rose's heart]

[You have succeeded in severing all of Fate Child's main relationships]

[You have successfully eliminated all of Fate Child's luck, and the option for killing is now available]

These notifications were a testament to his accomplishments, tangible evidence of the changes he had wrought in the world around him, reminders of the power he held and the choices he had made.

"Show my panel," Daniel requested, unfazed by the notifications. The panel provided a snapshot of his abilities, achievements, and the women who held a special place in his heart.

Daniel examined his panel, his fate having surpassed eight thousand points, allowing him to eliminate Alex. Though not thrilled, he had grown stronger andmore attuned to the intricacies of the system during his journey. Fate points were the currency of his power and choices.

However, amidst his accomplishments, there were looming uncertainties. Daniel had uncovered two variables in the web of fate—an anomaly and the possibility of the protagonist being a time regressor. While the latter didn't overly concern him, the former presented a formidable puzzle.

Daniel was confident that even if the protagonist reached that realm before his regression, he would be able to suppress him.

Being a regressor makes him increase the speed of his power increase and naturally, he knows about the existence of ancient treasures and tombs.

But Daniel not only had a system, but he was also fully aware of the future plots of the story

The anomaly could take various forms—a reincarnation of a god, a fellow traverser like himself, or even another holder of the system. Each of these possibilities brought its own set of complications and dangers. Dealing with such an enigmatic entity required careful planning and vigilance.

Moreover, the mysterious background of this anomaly added to the complexity. In the entire world, including his domain of origin, only a handful of lineages matched the status of the Hudson family. Some had even achieved the unthinkable, like cultivating a god. These forces were shrouded in power and mystery, making them formidable adversaries.

"I must eliminate Alex as soon as possible and claim the rewards from the system. I also need to address the issues with my soul power and mental state. And, of course, there's the academy and the ancestors' plan," Daniel thought, organizing his priorities.

Rose remained in his lap, clinging tightly to him, as if afraid that he might disappear. He smiled, his fingers gently caressing her hair. 

'Now that I think about it, it is possible that the trial appear sooner, Not only can it attract the attention of the hidden families and the taboo areas, but it can also for sure attract the attention of me, the so-called anomaly and the protagonist

As Daniel pondered the path ahead, one question weighed heavily on his mind—should he wait until the start of the academy to make his move, or should he begin preparations now? The decision carried profound consequences, as any misstep could have dire repercussions.

"I'd better wait," Daniel concluded after careful consideration. "If I take action now, there's a high chance that the church will uncover my identity. Although the system seems to shield me from the mirror of reincarnation, that protection might not be absolute."

The church was on high alert, and their caution made them formidable adversaries. If Daniel acted prematurely, it might trigger a chain of events that could spiral out of control. Even the formidable Hudson family might be powerless in the face of certain revelations.

As Daniel's thoughts raced with plans and possibilities, he continued to hold Rose close. Her presence was a source of comfort and strength, a reminder of the love that defied societal norms. She was more than a servant.
