Watching her relaxed demeanor, Caelon, with a satisfied smile, shifted his gaze outside.
“That must be the Marquisate over there.”
“Ah… yes.”
The Fleur Marquisate was also an ancient and prestigious family that had existed since the early days of the empire.
Having operated independently before being subjugated by Emperor Upieter, the Marquisate, with its long history, stood tall.
Although smaller in scale compared to the Grand Duchy in Elios Territory, the Fleur Marquisate, surrounded by a blue forest adorned with enchanting atmospheres, exuded a mysterious charm.
As the envoy arrived in the Fleur Territory, the residents who welcomed the procession came out and waved flags.
Moving to their assigned lodgings according to the guidance of the servants, the Fleur Marquis approached the Grand Duke and Duchess as they reached the Marquisate.
“Welcome. You must have had a long journey.”
“The accommodations have been arranged by our servants.”
As the envoy exchanged greetings with the Marquis, others moved to their respective lodgings, and the Fleur Marquis approached the Grand Duke and Duchess.
“It’s been a while, Your Grace.”
“Indeed, it has.”
After courteously greeting the Grand Duke, the Fleur Marquis shifted his gaze to Idel. He scrutinized her face closely.
“I also extend my greetings to you, Lady.”
‘Father…’
Feeling the distinctive fragrance of the Fleur Marquis, Idel looked at him with a momentarily longing expression.
It was the first time she saw her father’s face since the Marquis had visited the Grand Duchy before the wedding. Suddenly, she recalled their last conversation.
[Dash] Idel… [Dash] Yes, please speak. [Dash] Whenever… whenever you want, you can return as the Marquise.At that time, aware of the true nature of the contract marriage with Caelon, the Fleur Marquis had earnestly urged her.
[Dash] …You are my daughter.It was a phrase she had always wanted to hear from a young age, but at that moment, it came too late, accompanied by recognition and…
If the married life through the contract had any problems or became difficult, or when the contract ended, she was free to return to the family. That’s what her father had said, but… Idel shook her head.
She had already declared her independence from the family from the moment she entered the contract. Even if the contract with Caelon were to end… she had no intention of returning to the family.
From now on, she had decided to live as Idel herself, not as the Marquise of Fleur.
“I have been well. Very much so.”
Looking at the still worried expression on the face of the Fleur Marquis, Idel responded with an even brighter smile.
“…I’m relieved.”
Although the Fleur Marquis spoke as if there was nothing to worry about while looking at his daughter, who was smiling warmly as if there was no need to worry, his expression was tinged with concern.
‘Is everything really okay…?’
The news had come that the envoy led by the Grand Duke, on their way to the Lisandro Empire, had stopped by the Fleur Territory. The Fleur Marquis, who happened to be inspecting the territory, became busy upon hearing this news.
Busy preparing to meet the unexpected envoy, he was caught off guard, and the unexpected concern arose from the recent incident.
[Dash] I came because I have something to ask. Do you happen to… know about it?The presence that came to visit unexpectedly, upon arrival, immediately brought out an unexpected question, confusing the Fleur Marquis.
‘Why on earth would such a question be asked…?’
It was at that moment when the Fleur Marquis was still immersed in unanswered questions.
“Oh! Finally, you’ve come!”
As the voice of the one who had confused him reached him from behind, the Fleur Marquis jolted in surprise.
The surprise was not only for the Fleur Marquis.
Idel, too, gradually withdrew the smile that had been on her lips when she saw the face of the unexpected visitor.
Unbeknownst to them, the air was filled with the refreshing scent of roses.
“Roselin…?”
“Greetings to the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess. Welcome to the Fleur Territory.”
Roselin, whose face was blossoming with a red flush, greeted the Grand Duke and Duchess. Her leisurely smile was more masterful than that of the Fleur Marquis, the owner of the marquisate.
“Is it your first time in the Fleur Territory?”
Roselin’s meaningful gaze turned toward Idel. As she received that gaze, Idel’s expression stiffened, and she tightly sealed her lips.
Unlike Idel, who didn’t emit any fragrance, Roselin, who had grown, emitted an increasingly strong rose scent from her body.
Having received the family’s recognition, Roselin regularly visited the Marquis’s wife and the Fleur Territory.
Since her childhood, after visiting the Fleur Territory and returning as the Marquise, Roselin used to boast proudly about the beauty of the territory in an energetic voice.
After talking for a while, always at the end, she would add a word as if she had just realized.
[Dash] Oh, right. Doesn’t Sister not know much about the Fleur Territory?“I’ll personally guide you. Since you won’t know much about the Fleur Territory, Your Grace.”
It was the same gaze and voice as back then.
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.”
