Even though I recalled the original content eagerly, nothing else came to mind. Edwin hadn’t appeared in the original yet.
“Even though you read the original so much, you know nothing.”
Emily’s clattering hoof sound suddenly softened for a moment. Looking up, I found myself in front of the stable.
Leaving Emily to Roy, I walked across the garden. When I had crossed the vast flower bed and reached the fountain, it was then.
“Big sister?”
It was Kaiden’s voice. As I stopped, Kaiden came up quickly.
“Kaiden.”
“Are you just coming now?”
It was quite dark so I hadn’t noticed, but up close Kaiden was drenched in sweat.
“Are you coming from the training ground?”
“Yes.”
Could he have been training until this time?
“Mother doesn’t like it, you know. How about paying a little more attention to family affairs?”
“I want to be a knight like you, sister. A White Knight of the Order.”
A naive smile spread across Kaiden’s lips. For a moment, I stood dumbfounded, looking down at him.
The pure desire that rose in his eyes sparkled as much as the starlight in the dark night sky.
“Being a knight is good, but you have to think about inheriting the family.”
“I can inherit the family even if I’m a knight.”
“That’s true, but… If you really want to be a knight, how about the Guardian Knights?”
The White Knights prioritized the royal escort, unlike the Guardian Knights who were an elite knight group.
If war broke out, all the White Knights had to go to the battlefield, and once or twice a year, they had to leave for monster subjugation.
Although there hadn’t been a war for nearly 10 years, war could break out anytime, and monster subjugation was no small task.
When you think about why the White Knights were honorable, the answer was clear. Because they took on dangerous tasks.
In a way, it was an honor obtained by risking one’s life.
“I like the White Knights.”
“If you must become a knight, I’d recommend the Guardian Knights, but think it over slowly.”
Giving a good look at Kaiden’s somewhat chubby face, I started walking slowly toward the main building without adding more.
“Sister…”
“Yes?”
“Can you duel with me?”
“…What’s your reason for wanting to duel with me?”
Kaiden answered without hesitation.
“Because you are the strongest person, sister. If a Swordmaster appears again in the empire, it will surely be you.”
It’s not a wrong thing to say, but why do you look more proud?
“You’re still young, Kaiden. And even in our Order of Knights, those who duel with me are…”
I was about to carelessly say that there weren’t any, but I clamped my mouth shut.
It wasn’t that there weren’t any. A fairly decent sparring partner had appeared recently.
“Sister?”
“Rare enough to count on one hand. Do you think you’re at that level now?”
Kaiden shook his head, with a calm face, as if he had expected such an answer.
“It doesn’t have to be now. Even after I’ve improved my skills more…”
“Who’s the knight training you now?”
“Arnold.”
Arnold was the knight Olivia brought in recently. Wasn’t he an upper knight from Olivia’s maternal family, the Riley family?
“Not Schutz?”
“No.”
Schutz had been an upper knight responsible for the Winters family’s escort for a long time.
Rosebelia was also Kaiden’s swordsmanship teacher, and it was surely Schultz who first taught him swordsmanship, right?
“You should know whether you have the ability to compete with me or not, Schultz would know at least. If the one teaching you now was Arnold then…….”
“Sister, I understand your words. I will handle that myself.”
“Alright, if Schultz acknowledges your skill, then I will duel with you then.”
“Understood, sister.”
The force in his voice was adorable, and I inadvertently smiled.
I wanted a younger sibling in my previous life too; would this be what it feels like if I had a real younger sibling?
Looking down at Kaiden’s tangled hair, I unconsciously reached out, but just before my fingertips touched his hair, I slowly lowered my arm.
“Sister?”
I felt Kaiden looking up at me with a puzzled expression as I stopped in place. I casually pulled up my lips and started walking again.
“Let’s go.”
[Star Icon]“Your Highness, is something bothering you?”
“Me?”
Are there any other princes here besides you, Your Highness?
Nathan, who dared not utter these words, sneakily glanced at Ian’s reaction.
He had seemed in good spirits these past few days, but today he was visibly under the weather.
“Your complexion doesn’t look very good.”
Ian moistened his lips as if to answer but soon closed his mouth.
Observing Ian’s lostinthought expression, Nathan let out a soft sigh.
When Ian suddenly announced that he would join the White Knight Order, Nathan had predicted that Ian would last at most a few months or not even a month.
‘Surely he’s not thinking of quitting already?’
Nathan had been Ian’s aide for almost three years. Throughout that time, Ian had been, well, a rather intriguing person.
Born a precious prince, he never seemed to covet anything.
Others might grow attached to what they have, but Ian didn’t.
Neither to objects nor to people did he show attachment. He was indifferent and seemed without any particular ambition in everything, doing things only because he had to, yet he was quite competent.
The only thing Ian had not let go of for a long time was his sword.
“Nathan, there’s something I want to ask.”
“To me?”
“Who else is here besides you?”
Ian, who had somehow rested his chin on the desk, slightly lifted his eyebrows.
Though there was no change in his expression, and they merely met eyes, Nathan unconsciously flinched and neatly joined his hands.
“No, what do you want to ask me?”
“I’m just asking in case…….”
“Yes, speak.”
Nathan blinked his narrowed eyes slowly.
“I…….”
‘Why do I see anxiety in His Highness’s face? Am I seeing things because I’ve been working too much lately?’
He rubbed his suddenly dimmed eyes, but nothing changed.
“Do I tend to be somewhat unnoticeable?”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
