In Hades' perspective: She just realized that the "lifesaving" medicine she's taken all her life because of her father and the temple has prevented her from accessing any mana β leaving her uniquely vulnerable in a way that NO KNOWN PERSON is β and for that reason they're preventing her marriage to the Duke. She has been confined to her room with no visitors so they can claim that Hades is abducting her, which they're doing for her protection but is still actively imprisonment (albeit she's agreed to it). On top of that, withdrawal from those medications is causing excruciating pain as mana floods into a body that has never held it before.
How can you watch someone β especially someone who you care for β be in excruciating pain and do nothing, when you know that you can relieve them of that level of pain? Hades is a strong ass person and you can TELL that Aisha's pain takes a toll on him immediately. She's FUCKED UP.
As for Aisha's perspective... She's never lived an easy, pampered life: she's a reborn /isekai-ed individual who had an abusive childhood in Korea. She used to cry after having dreams of her childhood (CH13). She worked her ass off to create a fake rich identity to support the Escliffes and her stanning of Abel. She's hardworking, complicated, and is already coming to terms with the fact that the novel she read whose world she is now living in had an unreliable narrator and that much of her information is flawed β that's without getting into her current confinement and EXCRUCIATING PAIN she's experiencing due to getting off of the medication she's been willingly taken for months or years (depending on when she was reborn).
Let me tell you, being exposed to the levels of pain that Aisha is experiencing doesn't teach you SHIT. All you ever learn is that your body is unsafe, that your body is a prison on fire that you cannot escape from. Pain like that is debilitating and all consuming and the only thing that teaches you is how much you are able to endure because you have no fucking choices otherwise. She was literally begging for the drug because it was so fucking hard to bear, because it was the only relief that she knew of.
Like I cannot get over how monstrous it is to say that she should be left to her pain in order to learn a lesson. I get that she's a fictional character, but people think that about real people who experience excruciating pain and as someone with chronic pain because of a (old?) disabling injury and other medical issues, I'm ngl... That frustrates me SO MUCH. Only other people who have chronic pain understand what it's like and to be told that we're not deserving of pain relief because of a so-called "sheltered life" (lmao guess who ALSO experienced a fucked up childhood, albeit not as bad as some)... π€π€π€π€
