2021-08-28 21:28:44'I was forced to marry an old man for the family's honor and their daughter's reputation, but thankfully, somebody took me away.' Chiara thought while brushing her hair in front of the vanity mirror and sighed.
'But tonight, I have to attend a selection ceremony to see if I'm going to be a concubine or a slave.' "A slave is fine tho, but what if I was chosen to be a concubine or a queen? Another marriage, although not with an old man, but a ruthless one."
Chiara overheard the conversation of the other ladies two weeks ago, she heard that the new emperor took the crown by force and slaughtered all the servants, knights and everyone serving the previous emperor including his children and wives. On top of that, Emperor Edleman died a humiliating death in front of the nobilities.
'Will I be able to marry a man like that?'
*Siiiiiiigghhhh*
She sighed deeply while lost in her

"Y-Your Majesty, the lady doesn't want to ... ugh ... I think she doesn't want anyone to see her while she's sick." Chiara's personal maid, who was assigned by the palace, said with hesitation.'She doesn't want me to see how she looks like when she's sick? It's not like she's wearing makeup or a fancy dress when I met her at the pond. But I should be considerate when she's being shy .... Mm! Let's be a man.' is what running through Carzus' head at this moment."I understand. The doctor will be here soon, I shall come back when she gets better.""I apologize, Your Majesty."Seviere's eyebrows twitched 'The only time he asks for permission is when he's talking with the previous emperor, he even barged in one of the ducal houses and talked to their head while he was taking a bath! But what I'm seeing right now is ... is impossible! Just who are you, possessing His Majesty's body?!'

Even after growing up with Carzus, they still fear him because of his quiet personality and domineering aura. They also witnessed how Carzus slaughtered anyone who got in his way without hesitation, many times, that's why their fear is justifiable.Carzus looks down for a moment while processing Ellie's words. He's not actually mad at what he just heard, he even thought that Ellie might help him somehow in changing himself just so Chiara won't fear him anymore."I understand." He said with a heavy tone while thinking of what kind of approach he should do next time, just then, Seviere came panting heavily."Yoh- Yoh- Your Majeh- Hah!" He's out of breath at this moment which also sums up to the excitement that he's feeling. 'Well, maybe, just maybe, His Majesty's mood will get better after hearing the news that I was going to say. Hm-Hm! Breathe in, breathe out.'"*Cough* Lady Florentine is requesting

A few days have passed since Chiara visited Triton palace and it's just another normal day, at least for her."Today, the Emperor will announce the result of the selection process. Are you excited, My Lady?" Shiela asked while preparing the lady's breakfast.Chiara was busy at her table, making sketches of different dresses and suits when she remembered something. "I didn't participate at the selection ceremony, so I won't receive any letter today." She said with overflowing confidence while wearing a relief expression on her face.'What is she being relieved about?' *Sigh* Shiela smiled awkwardly."And if ever I received one today, then you wouldn't have to serve me anymore." The lady continued as she thought of the other possibility."Wouldn't have to serve you anymore? But, why?" Her maid asked as she put down the last dish on the table."Because we will b

Chiara came back to her room completely drained, there, she found Shiela brewing tea beside the tall window.Her eyes then roamed around the room, it was nothing like the spare rooms at Triton palace, nor the other ladies' room. The decorations are so plain and simple that everything looks old, but at the same time, cozy.Seeing Shiela waiting for her to come back with a smile on her face and a newly brewed tea that calms her soul while inhaling its scent, she can feel the warmth in her heart."Shiela." Chiara suddenly uttered after having a sip of the rosebud tea. The latter glanced at her direction and was surprised to see the loveliest and most peaceful smile Chiara ever had."What's the matter, My Lady?""Thank you."Shiela's heart was immediately filled with warmth. She smiled back at the lady and bowed her head gratefully.Growing u

"Please pardon me, My Lady!" Carzus pulled the lady up and hugged her from behind. He put his fists on her stomach and squeezed her with so much force, after doing that, a large piece of chocolate bar flew out from her mouth.Then both of them sighed in relief."Haaaa, that was close!" Chiara blurted after having a near-death experience. 'Ah, I should thank the emperor for saving me!' She turned around and was about to thank him when she noticed their position.His head is just above hers, when she raised her head a little, she caught sight of a little mole on his jaw, that's how close they were at the moment.Seviere came back after getting more macaroons, but he froze after stepping inside the office.'W-W-What am I seeing?!'He saw the emperor's arms around the lady, while she was looking up at him. There were no movements from them, and it looks like the

Hubert Creyson Clermont, first son of Marquis Clermont, the most popular bachelor in Arcland famous for his handsome features and easy-to-approach attitude. He graduated at Freimon Academy of Nobles as the top of his class and was once betrothed to Chiara"I missed you, Chiara." There were sparkles in his eyes as he uttered those words. He looked at the Lady with longing and sadness at the same time."I ... It's nice to see you again, Lord Clermont." Chiara held her breath and nodded her head to return the greeting, while the latter flinched for her sudden graceful behavior.'Hm? Did she finally learn etiquette? Ah, maybe because she was supposed to marry the previous emperor.' "How are you doing, Chiara?"The lady forced a smile and answered, "I was about to take a walk around this beautiful garden, but I changed my mind. I should go back now, it's nice seeing you here, Lord Clermont."

'Ahh ... It's been so long ..." Creyson was lost in thought while staring at his cup of tea. He was trying to remember how he met Chiara back then."Brother Crey!" A girl's cute voice resounded from behind him. "I missed you so much!""Ahh, how have you been, Clareen?" He patted her head and smiled. He and his father are in Duke Florentine's estate to stay for a while, until the issue of the port is settled."I'm good! Why didn't you visit me sooner? Hmp!""Come on, don't give me that look. Hahaha, Rinrin is so cute!""Young Lady, your mother is calling you to her room." One of the maids suddenly called Clareen."Mm-hm! I'm with Brother Crey, just tell mother I won't go with her!" Clareen replied stubbornly."B-but young lady ..." The maid looked troubled. If she didn't bring Clareen there in time, the Duchess will surely punish her just

'The Capital!' Chiara exclaimed in her thoughts after reaching the capital. It's settled that she's going to stay at the palace while she works as the personal servant of the emperor, so she might as well think of something that she could invest her time with after working hours.Because eating and drinking tea alone becomes boring as time passes.And the thing that she's been so curious about since when she was a child, is how to control mana. That's why she's here to buy books about it.Everyone is born with mana inside their bodies, but not everyone knows how to control it, especially not commoners. There are also a handful of mana users in the whole empire and most of them are priests at the temple, claiming that it was Seruvia who gave them that ability, so the information about the existence of mana disappeared in the blink of an eye.Most of the people nowadays don't know about it, while

Red light district, located at the western part of the empire. This is the only land in the empire that isn't owned by a noble, this was given by the previous emperor to the current head── Elissa Beatrice.The only woman who beat the previous emperor in swordsmanship during their early twenties.This piece of news isn't new to Chiara. This is in fact one of the reasons why she wanted to come here, to see this woman who made a name for herself.But ...Chiara turned her head and saw several ladies wearing pieces of thin clothings on their bodies, revealing their sexy curves and alluring breasts.She turned red in embarrassment. She squinted her eyes at one of the ladies and those bouncing boobs made her self esteem decrease.'Ahh, why am I not blessed with large breasts like hers? Hah.'She thought helplessly, while the knights with her we

"We've stopped the interrogation since they're barely breathing. Both of them didn't admit who was behind that incident, Your Majesty." Zandro reported. He just came back from the underground prison of the palace.Carzus expected this much since those servants have families of their own. The Duke must've already done protective measures right before they hired those servants."Let them starve to death." He said coldly as he touched the mask on his face. "If Francia wasn't there, It wouldn't be possible for Lady Florentine to get out unscathed."A loud thud resounded on his office table when he slammed his fist on it. He really wanted to eliminate those people who tried to harm Chiara, but he needs evidence and witnesses though he also believes that it wouldn't be the last one. Maybe at this time the Duke was already planning something against the Lady.'Why do they hate Chiara so much?' Carzus asked

"And who are you, young man? I believe that coming to a party uninvited was already rude. I can also put you behind the bars for stepping into another family's business.""By family, do you mean your family except Lady Chiara?" The man's voice seemed to become much deeper and colder as he uttered every word.Duke Florentine and Creyson became weary of the uninvited guest."What are you──""Because that's how I see it.""What?!""Nobody asked her what happened, but everybody asked the other lady what happened to her face. Then all of you jumped up to a conclusion that Lady Chiara slapped her because she accidentally spilled wine over Lady Chiara's dress."Hearing someone standing up for her was already overwhelming for Chiara, much more when he pointed out how they treated her with unfairness. She found the coat around her shoulders warmer

"Then I shall leave you here. Marquis Clermont will be coming with Creyson, so behave yourself and make your presence as little as possible."The Duke whispered."I understand." Chiara answered with bitterness. 'What a bunch of trash. When Creyson proposed to me, they were all against it. They even purposely treated the Marquis with indifference just to tell them how unimportant I was in this family. Now, they will greet the guests themselves and what, they want me to make my presence as little as possible? Hah. Ridiculous.'She sat at an empty seat near the white roses and poured herself some a cup of tea, not giving a damn to the people around her.'Serves you right. Don't you dare forget who is the real master of this house.' Clareen smirked and began exchanging compliments with the noble ladies surrounding her.How big of a difference. Clareen was like a flower surrounded by a bunch of butterflies

"Shiela ... I'm exhausted." Chiara complained without energy left in her body.Shiela woke her up before the sun rises, now it's already time to depart to the Duke's estate."What are you saying, My Lady? You look perfect!" Shiela said excitedly that her eyes turned into hearts."Kyaaa! My Lady is already beautiful, but her dress and everything made her beauty rise up to another level!""Of course, Lady Chiara is the prettiest!""I wonder what will His Majesty's reaction be when he sees My Lady like this?""Should you even ask that? Of course he'll fall over and over again! Aaahh My Lady is like an angel!"Several maids together with Fey are all fangirling behind Chiara who was already exhausted from all the beauty procedures she had to go through.This might be just a tea party, but this is also the first time that C

'What's with him all of a sudden?' Chiara asked in her mind while racking his brain for possible answers. Even her back was full of cold sweats.She looked at the man sitting opposite of her with legs crossed, leaning his back effortlessly while his cheek rested on his fist.'Aahh, why does this puppy look like a mad dog? Oh no, oh no! Wait, shouldn't I act angry because of our last conversation? When he said he will reconsider the marriage!' She calmed herself and nodded her head. But before she could utter a word, her thoughts turned into a mess again.'But what should I get angry about? Aren't I the one who suggested it? And even if he gets married, it has nothing to do with me. I-I ... suppose ...'"Please enjoy some tea." Shiela purposefully interrupted the heavy atmosphere. "I've prepared a chamomile tea for the Lady and mint tea for His Majesty. Both of these are for calming the body and mind

"I will have the dress delivered to your estate, may I know your address?" The young attendant's mother, Gretta, asked.Chiara was taken aback. "Can I just pick up the dress here tomorrow?" 'You see, I can't tell you that I live in the palace or you might overprice the dress. I don't have that much money, hehe, hehe.' She thought that way based on personal experience."O-okay then. I will immediately work on this dress and make sure that this will fit you. I will also add some details that I think will suit My Lady.""See you tomorrow then."Gretta and her daughter bowed as Chiara exited their shop. After the latter left with her carriage, they raised their heads and the tears they were holding back from earlier flowed non-stop."Mother ... I thought we wouldn't have a choice but to close the shop! Huwaaaaaaa!""I was thankful that I didn't pack everything ye

"My Lady, you were invited for a tea party." Shiela said with a gloomy face. 'Of all tea parties, why does it have to be that woman's party? Will My Lady come?'She glanced at her lady worriedly.Chiara glanced at the stamp of the letter and her mood also dropped. She didn't want to go, but she didn't want His Majesty to get involved in meaningless gossip if she turned down this invitation.She was sure that her dear sister who was the best at acting would spark a rumor about His Majesty being the reason why she can't attend the tea party. If that happens, then the people who looked disgusted with her sight will spread more false rumors because of Clareen's misleading.'I don't want that to happen. I'd rather put up with all the humiliation than drag innocent people on this. Especially not the one who helped me.'"Shiela, I managed to earn quite a sum of money. Let's go to the ca

"What?!""Who ... Who would do this to a young child?" Chiara mumbled. Her heart was so heavy. She suffered so much as a child, but the child in front of her was literally dying."Have you gone to the herbal shop yet?" Dale asked the child's father."Yes. But they don't have medicine left to treat wounds. He just gave me some medicine to reduce the pain, but ... but his wounds ...""Then why not just make one? Those old geezers."Dale tapped Wilner's shoulder. "They might not have the ingredients. The merchant that was supposed to visit the Capital didn't come for 2 weeks now, maybe that's why they ran out of ingredients."Chiara thought something and asked, "What are the ingredients they need? I can order the knights with me to get it for you."Everybody looked at her with gloomy eyes, "The ingredients for making medicines to treat wound
