The entrance ceremony of Gelly the On Academy began. The gazes of nobles famous in politics and business focused on a man standing on the platform. That man's name... I don't remember exactly as I only saw him at the entrance ceremony in my previous life, but he is the general director of this academy and the imperial finance minister who is said to be highly favored by the emperor. "I am Deric, in charge of overseeing this academy. I look forward to working with you." Ah, right. His name…-

The teachers seated us and began introducing themselves. Starting with teachers responsible for knowledge needed to study at the academy, there were teachers for preliminary studies, dance, and knowledge related to the imperial palace. There were about five months until entering the academy, and six months until the debutante ball for social debut. It was a tight schedule to acquire all of that. More precisely, it was a very tight schedule for Leila. Since I had already learned all of this…

For a while, Bershua seemed to repeat a life of going to the training ground earlier than anyone else and returning to the marquis's mansion later than anyone else. Initially, he left home with an irritated look, filled with anger toward Father, but as the grueling training continued, his face gradually showed only resignation and sighs. And Leila, having lost Bershua as a major supporter, remained out of sight in the mansion for a while. She only occasionally showed her face at dinner with…

The servants in the house, after hearing Father's angry voice, seemed to watch carefully and then completely disappeared from Father's sight. And what caught Father's eye were me and Brother Rubert. "You two. You would have attended the banquet held after the coming-of-age ceremony." Hearing that, my brother and I nodded. "Did you hear anything there? About me, or about the dam project, or even about land-related matters." Hearing Father's words, my brother and I shook our heads. It…

At the voice from behind, the crown prince moved one step away from me with a regretful expression. Behind the crown prince, I could see Brother Rubert looking at us with a surprised expression. "Ah, Your Highness the Crown Prince is here too." As Brother Rubert bowed to the crown prince, the crown prince waved his hand as if to say the greeting was sufficient. "Ah.... They said the venue would be moved for a banquet after the coming-of-age ceremony.... But I didn't know Your Highness the Crown…

Hearing my words, Young Duke Posilia turned around with a surprised expression and quickly bent one knee to show respect to the crown prince. Seeing the young duke's actions, I also hurriedly lifted the hem of my dress and bowed. The crown prince was looking at us with a coldly hardened gaze. No, to be precise, he was looking at Young Duke Posilia with a coldly hardened gaze. Just having the crown prince's gaze directed here made it feel like all the muscles in my body were stiffening. Young…

Brother Rubert stiffened his body in surprise when he saw Bershua and Leila attending the coming-of-age ceremony. I nudged his side slightly, signaling him to snap out of it. As we entered the banquet hall, many people approached us with smiles. "Oh, it's Lady Rowenloa and Lord Rubert. I heard you received direct invitations from His Majesty the Emperor." "Despite your young age, you've been recognized for your abilities by His Majesty the Emperor. Lady Masipacius, you must be familiar with the…

"That's absurd! How... how could the members of the traditional Gels Council change so easily?" Upon hearing my words, Pelena stood up abruptly from her chair, hitting the table with an expression of disbelief. Pelena took great pride in the fact that her family was a member of the Gels Council. There was no way she wouldn't relay this story to her father, Marquis Clevan. "Um... excuse me for a moment." Pelena didn't sit back down but turned around and disappeared from the tea party. She…

The atmosphere inside the returning carriage was extremely quiet. Brother Rubert and I were focusing only on the scenery outside the window to cool our emotions, unable to hide our excited faces, while Father was just looking alternately at Bershua and the documents with an angry face. And Bershua, while watching Father's reaction and lowering his gaze to the floor, was occasionally busy glaring at Brother Rubert as if he felt upset. Rembro and Leila hadn't exchanged a single word with the…

Hearing the crown prince's words, I smiled awkwardly. What do I need to want for the crown prince to be at an advantage...? I don't remember having fought with the crown prince... Seeing my confused expression, the crown prince stepped back with a regretful look. "This way." So the crown prince guided me to the seat next to him. Since everyone else had already taken their seats, I had no choice but to stand next to the crown prince. "Now, everyone sit down." The emperor sat down,…
