On the surface, he appeared loyal to the monarch and patriotic, but secretly he plotted rebellion.
Such deceitful acts, he disdained and never considered.
But being in his position, he had no choice but to consider every step carefully.
These were the things his mother had painstakingly warned him about.

However, after this incident, he grew increasingly contemptuous of his former self — that foolishly loyal and dutiful idiot!!!
