☀️ Arselia and Akonia

"No, everything is fine. Even though I'm a relatively minor boss, I carefully maintain my authority, even within the confines of Carneol, preventing anyone from undermining it with inappropriate words or disobedience. It's just that this side of me rarely shows, because everyone here is responsible and disciplined, and our relationships are excellent. I generally prefer a clear hierarchy... But you're probably looking at the fact that I give you a lot of personal freedom and support your initiatives? Well, that's what normal people do, especially towards such intelligent and competent subordinates. Could it be that Alaria had such bad luck with bosses in the past that she considers this a sign of liberalism? Really, how could I be more authoritarian? Should I come up with a uniform? Make everyone march in step? Lock Gion in the basement for not going to Tais? No, that's not authoritarianism, that's pettiness, and I'm fine, but I won't say that, let them think I'm a sweetheart.)"
