From the start, opening the gate from within with just two people sounded impossible. Ariana was just about to turn around to reach the gate, when the heavy gate that was impossible to lift, slowly began to rise upwards.“Who, who, opened the gate?! Where did the people who were asked to guard the gate go?!”From a distance, Ariana could hear the soldiers screaming in panic. The chaos got even worse when, from within the capital alone, Ariana could hear fast-moving horses.

Don't worry, we'll soon be out of this place. I've thought about it well. There's no revenge or other crimes. I just want to live happily with you from now on.”Emilio's brows furrowed as he didn't understand what his mother meant.

116. Worried

In the king's study, both Marquess Curtis and Captain Allen glanced at each other as Raoul, who had been king for several months, took another deep breath. The man's gaze looked sad, as his hands continued to move to work on the pile of tasks in front of him.The two men who had been watching Raoul for a while knew that even though the king was doing his job, his mind was actually elsewhere. Another sigh sounded again, as Raoul finished with another paper.“Your Majesty, is there something wrong?”As the new prime minister, Marquess Curtis felt that helping to lighten Raoul's burden was one of his duties. Raoul did look at him after he asked. But not long after, Raoul's head drooped again, as if the man had given up on what was on his mind.“Are you thinking about Lady Ariana, Your Majesty?”When it was Captain Allen's turn to ask, the originally limp Raoul immediately became embarrassed when the new head of the royal knights asked him. “How, how did you know?” asked Raoul in disbelie

At the end of a beautiful hill, Ariana stood accompanied by Carla, who was standing far behind her.

118. The Party

As the Sigmund Kingdom's economy had improved over the past few months, Raoul managed to save enough money to throw a grand party to celebrate Raoul's appointment as king of the Sigmund Kingdom. Since early morning, various luxurious carriages passed through the streets of the capital to go to the royal palace. Because King Raoul was so famous in the eyes of other kingdoms, queues to enter the royal palace caused congestion on the streets of the great capital.Ariana, who had come with Cale in the horse carriage, couldn't believe it when they too were caught in the traffic jam. It seemed that even before Raoul became a king, his popularity had already spread across many kingdoms. Ariana could see that most kingdoms sent their daughters as royal representatives. They did that, probably because they knew that Raoul still didn't have a queen until now.“Your Grace, thank God you arrived safely.”As soon as Ariana got off her carriage, she was immediately greeted by Captain Allen, who gre

119. Marriage Agreement

When Raoul saw Princess Elle coming to his party, the king asked for a private room to talk to the girl about the Orvel Kingdom's troops that are still living in the Sigmund Kingdom. Previously, they were forced to stay in the Sigmund Kingdom for a while because they were ordered by King Bernard to help Raoul secure the Sigmund Kingdom during the unstable reign. But now that everything was over, Raoul felt he needed to return the troops to the Orvel Kingdom. Raoul certainly couldn't talk about such sensitive matters in public. So, when the guests were entertained with various events that Raoul had prepared, the king went to see Princess Elle, who had first entered the private room that Raoul had chosen.“Raoul!”Princess Elle, who originally appeared as if she was still friends with Raoul, immediately stopped when General Dion pretended to cough to warn the girl. In front of Princess Elle right now, Raoul was no longer a prince who had the same status as her. Raoul was a king, and Pri

120. Strange Behaviour

“Curtis, should we get married? With your status and age… People must have been urging you to get married too, right?”Seeing Marquess Curtis' shocked face, Ariana finally realized that she had asked the impossible. The girl was pensive before she averted her gaze from Marquess Curtis.“You see, many people have been constantly sending me letters and gifts since His Majesty ascended the throne and everything was … Really over. They know I'm the only one left in my family, so I have an obligation to continue my family lineage. I thought that instead of marrying a noble I didn't know well before … It's better if I can marry someone I already know well.”Marquess Curtis is a man who is intelligent, gentle, and never distinguishes the status of others. Apart from Alison's family, the Alodie family was probably another noble who managed to maintain the prosperity of their territory even in times of chaotic reign. Marquess Curtis also always treated Ariana well. So, the girl thought, maybe M
