As morning broke, Detrian and I were in the same room, entrusting our entire bodies to the ladies introduced by Countess Meilon. They meticulously checked everything from makeup to hair styling, dresses, shoes, and even socks and nails. "Detrian, are you nervous?" I asked him. His expression was dark unlike my calm demeanor. Detrian slowly nodded. "I'm so nervous...... I feel like I might throw up." I burst out laughing. "It's okay, you'll do well. And...... things with your father…

For a week, Detrian went to see the emperor every day at the same time, carrying copies of the documents. Each time, the emperor pushed Detrian away, and today he's using the excuse of being busy and not even letting us in. "Father!" Detrian's cry echoed through the palace corridor, but there was no response. Sighing, he seemed to make a decision and took another deep breath. "Father! Please reveal with your own hands the things you've done...!" As soon as he shouted, the emperor flung…

As soon as the emperor heard the aide's words, he rose from his seat and said to the knights with cold eyes, "Imprison Perserit Crescent." At the emperor's command, the knights looked at each other in confusion. Then the knight commander, standing in their midst, shouted at their attitude, "Obey His Majesty the Emperor's command!" Only then did the knights restrain the arms of the empress, who was staring blankly at the emperor, and tried to drag her out of the hall. "......How could you…

As Detrian and I sat in the hall, people began to enter one by one. We had to repeatedly stand up and sit down to greet the incoming people. "......It seems Her Majesty the Empress has invited more guests than expected." "Indeed. It's fortunate that I told Viscount Sherel to come as late as possible. This is the moment for the Sherel viscounty to be revived, so he should be the center of attention." The meal that was originally planned for just five people—Viscount Sherel, Detrian, myself,…

"Lady Rowenloa! Lady Rowenloa! Please wake up!" On the morning of the meal with the emperor, I opened my eyes to Frill's voice. Looking at the window, it was still dawn before sunrise, and Frill and Mylene were staring at me with strangely passionate eyes. "Lady Rowenloa. I just heard from my father... Her Majesty the Empress is coming to today's meal!" I nodded. "Is it that strange for the empress to attend a meal with the emperor...?" Frill shook her head and continued…

While the viscount turned his back on them to check on me, I saw Pelena pick up a knife from the ground and throw it toward Viscount Sherel. "Viscount She...!" I called out to the viscount after noticing this, but he nodded at me while maintaining eye contact. Thud— The knife lodged in his shoulder, and he let out a small groan as he pulled it out. "Father!" It was at that moment when Frill ran toward the viscount in shock… —The competition is suspended. All participants please…

"It's been quite a while since the last hunting competition, hasn't it? The one for young ladies... it's been almost 10 years, I think?" "There was a very unfortunate incident at the first competition. They sent them out to hunt, but then one child was assaulted by a group... and some young ladies secretly gathered and brought in larger monsters from outside the hunting grounds... Since this competition is being held after such a long time, I hope it ends without anyone getting hurt." "But since it's…

So I attended Countess Meilon's social gathering after a very long time. The ladies welcomed me without any signs of discomfort despite my long absence. As expected, we sipped tea at first, but after Countess Meilon sent everyone out, they began to take out the food they had brought one by one. The countess, as if accustomed to it, brought plenty of alcohol. ...Is it just my imagination, or has the amount of alcohol increased? In this free atmosphere that I hadn't felt for a long time, I had…

"But... would it be okay for me to touch things here?" Detrian tilted his head and looked at me. I carefully spoke to him. "This is a place filled with memories of your mother. It feels a bit... wrong for me to handle things carelessly." Detrian shook his head. "Just think of it as introducing you to my mother." I chuckled. "Well then, shall we start searching?" So Detrian and I began to thoroughly search the room. However, while carefully examining the room, I made an effort not…

Pristina, who had many dreams, always pursued her ideals, but reality was not lenient enough to let her focus solely on them.
