### Summary
Picking up from their public encounter, the chapter deepens the connection between Grand Duke Cedric Ebron and Artezia Rosan. Cedric shows genuine concern for Artezia's well-being, noting her frailness and thin wrists, a stark contrast to the social neglect she endures. A pivotal moment clarifies a key misunderstanding for the audience, as Cedric reveals he views Lisia "like a sister," dispelling theories of a pre-existing romance, though Artezia herself may still believe he is in love with Lisia. The chapter's romantic centerpiece is a dance, where both characters claim to be poor dancers but proceed to move together perfectly, culminating in a classic trope moment where Artezia falters and Cedric catches her. Throughout the interaction, Artezia is weighed down by guilt and low self-esteem from her past life, prompting reader debate on whether her vulnerability is genuine or a calculated, genius-level manipulation to secure Cedric's alliance. Commentary also continues to focus on character design, with readers highlighting Cedric's thick eyebrows and concluding that Artezia's reputation for being "ugly" is a result of malnourishment and neglect, not her actual features.
