Given the situation, it was natural for the queen and the second prince to welcome our marriage with open arms. I watched Floria, who was satisfied with the smoothly progressing events as I had predicted.
The speed at which rumors spread was faster than expected, probably because the queen, who had connections on that side, played a significant role. Cahilin and I agreed on this.
“The queen can be helpful at times.”
Cahilin smiled satisfactorily.
Day by day quickly passed, and before I knew it, it was the day of the royal martial arts competition.
Thanks to Cahilin, who seemed to have plans to drag me around as a maid until the wedding day, I was in the waiting room.
“Reneola, today I’ll show you the second-best. Please watch.”
“I doubt the second-best.”
Machi and Randols didn’t seem to have any expectations of winning from the start. Moreover, everyone in the waiting room seemed to be aiming for the second-best.
Rather than being discouraged, they seemed excited at the prospect of witnessing the swordsmanship of the continent’s only sword master up close.
“Today, will you, Your Majesty, give Reneola a golden rose as a gift?”
“Feel free to expect it since everyone will envy it.”
Since learning about the contract marriage with Cahilin, Machi and Randols, who were maids until that day, treated me as a prince rather than a maid.
Although grateful, the sparkling gazes of the two pairs of eyes were quite burdensome. Nevertheless, there were only a few people who supported our marriage.
“Well, it’s not a real marriage, but still, it’s nice if they congratulate us.”
I was making excuses for myself.
“Reneola.”
Cahilin in full armor approached, hugged my waist, and kissed my forehead.
It was an action intended for everyone in the waiting room to see.
Since deciding on the contract marriage, we had decided to show an affectionate appearance publicly, but I didn’t expect this level of intimacy. When I pushed him away in embarrassment, he chuckled softly.
There were sounds of people inhaling in surprise here and there.
While Cahilin was putting on armor with the help of Machi and Randols, I looked around the waiting room.
Certainly, they all seemed to be knights; their bodies were large, and muscles were well-defined. Even though he was a sword master, it seemed challenging for Cahilin to win easily.
Cahilin grabbed my chin, making eye contact. He seemed displeased, furrowing his brows.
“What are you looking at?”
“No, I was just looking around.”
When I hesitated to answer, Cahilin leaned in, bringing his face close, and whispered.
“Look only at me. Because I’m the best.”
Cahilin smirked confidently, pulling his lips upward. Feeling the closeness of his breath, I pushed his shoulder away.
In the midst of knights bustling from all directions, what is he doing?
As I glared, he smiled happily, brushing my cheek with his thumb. Unintentionally, I took a couple of steps back from the sensation spreading from where his fingers touched.
I observed Cahilin putting on his cloak, and from behind, I heard murmuring.
“Prince 1, why would you bring in such a woman? Prince 2, why not marry a proper woman instead.”
“Parlong’s gossip also ended up like that because of that woman.”
“There’s a rumor going around about him being a playboy. Besides, how wicked she is to the palace servants. Imagine what it would be like if she became the queen.”
“I respect Prince 1, but it seems he doesn’t have eyes for women.”
Whether they think it doesn’t reach their ears or they’re telling us to hear it, I internally let out a bitter laugh.
“If you change your mind now, you can kick her out immediately.”
Thunk!
The resounding noise, as if something exploded, was the sound of Cahilin thrusting his sword into the ground. The knights, who had closed their mouths, looked at Cahilin with stern faces.
Cahilin lightly pulled the sword, partially embedded in the ground, and glanced coldly around the waiting room.
“Sounds like a dog barking somewhere.”
In a crowded waiting room like this, he probably thought we wouldn’t know who said it, so he casually made a mocking remark. However, Cahilin didn’t hold back in his gaze. The knights he pointed to couldn’t hide their expressions.
“They’re all dead.”
Machi tsked, clicking her tongue.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
