“Following the tradition of the empire, the Crown Prince, who has completed the academic rites, is currently attending classes at the academy for state affairs management. I was wondering if the Crown Princess could also attend classes with him.”
When the emperor mentioned the academy, Edith reacted like a girl hearing the name of her first love.
“Is that really okay?”
“Of course. Especially since I heard that you have a keen interest in medicine, it would be good for you to attend theoretical lectures on public health and medicine.”
“Oh, my…”
“If the Crown Princess has an interest in a particular field, it will surely be reflected in our policies, and then everyone in Agnas can receive more appropriate medical benefits.”
Feeling her voice might tremble, Edith nodded slightly.
One of the most concerning things for Balthazar when he found out he was the emperor’s son was related to admissions to the academy’s medical department. Once she ascended to the position of Crown Princess, she could enroll and learn everything she wanted from tutors, but if she made a mistake, it could jeopardize her main profession.
Having received such a responsible position, she had considered putting aside personal academic interests. However, the emperor’s proposal was the compromise she had hoped for.
At the same time, it was somewhat surprising that the emperor acknowledged her interests and dreams.
“I will do my best, Your Majesty.”
“The medicine developed by researching Balthazar’s blood and magical power seems to suit me well. Time seems to be ample. The academy is also a place for nobles to build friendships, so it will be a good experience.”
Until the tea time with the emperor was over, Edith kept smiling brightly.
It was the same while taking a round at the palace where the Crown Prince would soon move in. Balthazar, with a smile, tidied up Edith’s disheveled hair.
“I knew you would enjoy attending classes at the academy, but I never expected you to be happier than at our wedding.”
Edith laughed softly, apologizing.
“Working in the palace has been my dream for a long time. It’s more satisfying to help more people at the palace than at the clinic.”
She had dreamed of someday doing something that would help the sick in the palace, but becoming the Crown Princess was a way to achieve that dream.
The feeling of slowly realizing everything she had wished for since childhood was indescribable.
Balthazar looked at her contented expression and smiled with satisfaction.
“Oh, right. I remember mentioning that it would be nice for welfare if there was a handsome Crown Prince.”
“Hmm, hmm.”
Pretending not to have said such a thing, Edith shook off the dust and got into the carriage. It was hard to believe that she would live in this palace soon.
The Crown Prince’s academic rites were scheduled to take place at the temple within the palace.
Having prepared early, Balthazar was still in the unfamiliar Crown Prince’s office. Cassius, who came to report and illuminate his face, couldn’t speak for a while.
Dressed in ceremonial attire befitting his authority as the Crown Prince, Balthazar was displaying a splendor and authority never seen before.
Through the large window he stood in front of, the midday sunlight poured in. The moniker of the empire’s small sun suited the young Crown Prince of Agnas perfectly.
There was an unfamiliar gap between the sight he had seen so far and the dazzling appearance now, yet for some reason, his figure in luxurious attire felt familiar.
The strange sense of intimidation he felt when he first discovered the boy trying to escape from the Portrion Mansion seemed to have finally found its place.
“I present to you, Your Highness, the Commander of the 2nd Imperial Knights directly under the Crown Prince.”
Balthazar also captured Cassius with his eyes, momentarily captivated by an indescribable feeling.
Among the knights affiliated with the royal family, especially the commanders, his appearance, wearing a uniform only those in command could wear, was solid and different from before.
“Report, Commander of the 2nd Imperial Knights directly under the Crown Prince.”
“Why address me so formally… Well, then, as the Chief Commander of the 2nd Imperial Knights directly under the Crown Prince, I will give my first report.”
“If you’re a commander, you’re a commander. What’s with the chief commander thing?”
“His Highness the Crown Prince graciously bestowed all existing titles upon me due to a long-standing friendship and sincerity.”
Cassius expressed satisfaction for a while but regained seriousness.
“Putting that aside, I will report on the execution of the House of Gouterque.”
“Executed?”
“Yes. The Viscount and Viscountess Gouterque were beheaded while confessing their sins until the last moment. That scoundrel Gilbert kept babbling nonsense until the end.”
“And Patricia?”
“Contrary to expectations, she faced the guillotine in a dejected state. According to the knights, it seems her mental strength has declined since the visit of Lady Edith.”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
