The work was so famous and still being serialized that preventing spoilers was extremely strict, with few comments properly explaining the relationships between characters. Since I had chosen it as my first romance fantasy novel, I didn't want to know the plot before starting, so I never even looked at blog posts marked "※SPOILER WARNING※". But Ian, who was supposed to flee in the original story, somehow seemed to have absolutely no intention of giving up his position as crown prince. Having…

Clara greeted me with a surprised expression when I returned to the mansion fuming. "Oh my, Miss?" When I started taking out several bags and packing my belongings without saying anything, Clara seemed to notice something was wrong and hurriedly approached me, sitting down in front of me. "What's happening? Why are you suddenly packing?" "Clara, I submitted my resignation letter." "What?" Clara's eyes trembled slightly as she covered her mouth, looking at me in genuine shock. "The…

In the original story, they said my father sent me as a spy for the insane Callian and demanded confidential information through letters every day, but thinking about it, my father had never once contacted me since I became Ian's aide. Even though he must have known that there was much more information to extract from the aide of Ian, who had been performing Crown Prince duties for 10 years, rather than Callian. After averting his gaze, my father never looked at me again. "Come to think of…

I frowned as Ian grinned widely, feeling far from pleased about this sudden fieldwork. That smile was clearly the one he used when looking disapprovingly at nobles who spouted nonsense during state council meetings, so why was he showing me that expression? I boarded the carriage with Ian's escort—not the Crown Prince's brilliant and luxurious carriage, but an ordinary one without any family insignia. Looking at Ian who sat across from me, I bowed my head and said: "......I apologize if my words…

Clara, the live-in maid whom I hadn't seen for three weeks, looked surprised as she took my coat while I stepped out of the carriage with my eyes closed. "What have you come to get, Miss?" "Huh?" "If you had sent someone ahead, I could have prepared it for you." Looking at Clara, who wore a pitiful expression thinking I had come to get something rather than actually returning home, I could only offer a bitter smile. Would others understand that I was working myself to the bone to prevent…

Tick-tock. Scratch-scratch. The Crown Prince's office. Only the sound of the clock hands turning and the fountain pen scribbling on documents echoed throughout the office. Despite having just passed three in the morning, bright lights remained on in the Crown Prince's office. With my eyes half-closed, I mechanically processed work from the mountain of documents piled high like a small range. As always, I gulped down the strong coffee that had already gone cold, trying to rein in my mind that…

Thud. "Here's the final budget summary for the second-half waterway construction project you requested!" "Leave it there." Thump. "Here's the final revised budget for next year's slum welfare program you asked me to modify!" "Leave it there." Bang! "Here's the draft budget for next year's Imperial Knights operations!" "Leave it there." New stacks of documents piled on top of the thick bundles of papers that already completely covered the wide desk. While watching this, I…

When I turned around, I saw the small elderly woman hurrying toward us, out of breath. The path at the edge of the forest wasn't particularly steep, but the tall weeds were tangled everywhere, making me worry she might fall. "Huff! Huff!" Mrs. Rosenthal approached us, breathing heavily, and reached into her pocket to take something out. "This! My husband asked me to give you this......" It was a small green bottle containing a potion and a tiny container of ointment. "This…

Rian, dressed in a slightly small but stylish formal suit, was assigned the task of escorting the young ladies to their bedrooms, and he performed it perfectly—even excessively so. Of course, having an unmarried man lurking around young ladies' bedrooms would be unthinkable by 19th-century standards, but I deliberately assigned this task to Rian. I trusted that he wouldn't ruin things with unnecessarily flirtatious or sleazy behavior. 'I wish you all a pleasant night.' As Rian turned with a…

I shook my head and spoke kindly to Ellie again. "As you may have heard, I'm planning to help you have your wedding at Clairfield Castle." "Is, is that true? Here, at your castle, Baron? Mrs. Baxter told me, but I couldn't believe it. Someone like me, daring to use a castle......" "Don't worry. Where else would be better for a wedding? It would be a shame to leave such a beautiful, spacious place empty when it could be put to good use." "B-but my parents...... will object. They might get angry.…
