His Royal Highness's cats are very hairy.

Second story, the end of the dream story.

Prince Rutvias first saw the niece of the captain of the Imperial Knights of Kingsguard, who herself, she said, also has a place in the Knights.

Not only is she beautiful, but she is a talented woman with excellent language skills and the ability to manipulate long swords freely with her fine arms.

"What is the combination of talent? Anyway, it's decided that the woman seduced Prince Rutvias with a color trick."

That's what Adaline's mother said, knocking down the rumored lady knight.

When he said Adeline, he found out more about the woman Prince Rutvias had chosen and was strangely convinced.

I was wondering if you prefer that kind of woman.

Adeline didn't even know what kind of food she liked or what kind of woman she liked about her future husband, whom she had hardly ever spoken to.

Empire is a country where women can also take the throne. Unlike rude succeeds and neighbouring countries, where the custom of women following men is deeply ingrained, fewer women have a high status in society, such as the Lords' Parliament and Lords, he said.

The empire's diplomatic ambassador, who now visits the Rude Saxonyd court, is a beautiful sensible woman, albeit fifty. I'm sure the female knight Prince Rutvias met is also a magnificent woman with a Rin charm.

But when it comes to Adeline, if she's not beautiful, she has nothing but blood muscles. I had never tried to take a long sword or anything, and it would probably be difficult to lift it. All Adeline can do is smile without difficulty at the hard stories among the people she calculates for her greed.

Too miserable, Adeline became pathetic.

The scandal that Prince Rutvias wanted to marry a woman other than his fiancée quickly ran around the country. Domestic public opinion, like Adeline's mother, has a majority of voices criticizing the female knight that her opponent's female knight seduced Prince Rutvias. Because the Ludo Saxony people were sympathetic to Prince Rutvias, who was put hostage at a young age.

The conspiracy theory was also whispered that the Empire was from the outset a calculation to let the Royal Family of Ludo Saxonyd daughters daughter-in-law their own country.

And he also raised many voices questioning the qualities of Prince Rutvias, who was caged in them, whether he was qualified to serve as future king, whether he was tempted to be a female knight, or a conspiracy of the Empire. I wonder if the Prince has already stained the colour of the Empire because he was young and placed in the Empire.

In any case, rebellion against the Empire of St. Tyrann Azir intensified day by day within Rude Saxonyd.

It was the Imperial Council, which initially was positive about the marriage of the prince and the lady knight, that panicked for more rebellion than expected. Even before they were built, the Empire and Rude Saxony are now friendly countries. That is also because the Royal Family of Ludo Saxonyd bears all the blame for the war ahead and demonstrates a form of euphemism in the form of friendship for the Empire. The dissatisfaction with the Empire turns into dissatisfaction with the Royal Royal Roud Succeed, as does the Empire's loss of de facto belonging if it becomes a civil unrest.

The Imperial Council returned the palms lightly and expressed its opposition to the marriage.

To Prince Rutvias, who still did not bend his will, Adeline's father, who was in a hard posture, also gave way by the time he made a proposal to welcome the female knight as a side chamber to Rude Saxony.

Eventually, however, things will close in unexpected ways.

The female knight entered the monastery herself and severed her relationship with Prince Rutvias.

"You've finally been ashamed of your sins."

Adeline's mother, who gave the news, puts her mouth on a teacup poured with tea as if she were relieved.

Adeline herself, unhappy to rejoice, dropped her gaze with complicated thoughts.

Shouldn't I be the one who should go to the monastery? That would reduce one obstacle for Prince Rutvias to marry a female knight.

Even with the low status of a female knight, her physique would be ready if she were adopted by a noble nobleman of the Empire there. If the righteous queen can't get into the royal family as a side chamber, it shouldn't be difficult to gain understanding around her over time because she says she's a talented woman. It's not my dream to be queen eventually.

But the female knight went into the monastery, forsaking both her beloved and her knight's title. How clean.

-... compared to me...

Instead of being loved, you don't even care, but you still desperately cling to your status as a 'fiancé'.

Adeline's heart sank depressingly, pitiful of herself to grasp the slightest connection to Prince Rutvias for the rest of her life.

Thus, the incident that disturbed both Tiranazir Ludsaxeed countries, even said to be the great scandal of the century, eventually gradually converged.

But it wasn't long before Adeline realized that everything didn't work out.

"Good day, Master Hardevich"

At an acquaintance's tea party she hadn't attended in a long time, Adeline found a good friend to greet.

Unlike Adeline, her beautiful friend, who also had bright red hair, smiled nicely and glossy as she turned to Adeline.

"Well... good day, Master Adeline"

"Long time no see. How are you, sir?

"You don't have to take such care of me, Master Adeline."

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Adeline took a step back because it seemed strangely horrible that Hardevich's beautiful eyes would shine as usual. Hardevich takes a step forward so that he can further catch up with such Adeline.

"Don't talk to me, can't you see what you're saying? A truly foolish man."

To the obvious words of contempt, Adeline solidified. Hardevich deliberately hits his shoulder and leaves when he laughs down at Adeline like that with his nose. Adeline lay down her hands and knees on the spot.

-... to...?

I always loved hearing about Hardevich, who was bright and fun. Hardevich was always friendly to Adeline as well and taught me a lot about the fashion of dresses, makeup and hairstyles. I've never seen you like this before.

-... I... I think I've done something...

Hardevich was right, Adeline was aware that her actions were slower than people's. There are a lot of chatter and listeners, and when you get nervous, you get stuck in words. Before I realized it myself, I might have done something to hinder Hardevich's mind.

"It's lame."

Dull, Adaline raised her face to a whispering voice. Then a few of the ladies turn away.

-... why?

They were friends with Adeline. Until the other day, we used to come and go to each other's houses. Hissing, and the ladies who were elsewhere whisper.

"You can't help being abandoned by a prince."

"Well, His Royal Highness is a man. I can't even make you want to choose a gorgeous, beautiful knight over a politically determined fiancée."

Adeline finally realized that she was despised.

"I'm sorry about the prince, too. I can't believe I have to have such a plain woman as my wife, even though she's the daughter of a famous family."

"I really feel sorry for you."

Hissing laughter. My legs tremble, and Adeline can't get up.

I feel like everyone on the spot, young and old, is flattering themselves.

- - I woke up from a dream, Adeline understood.

Blessed are the kind people and happily married to a beautiful and gentle prince. I've always thought that would happen. But it was just a dream. All the Adelaine-friendly worlds that Adelaine had ever lived in were dreams.

To the mockery of the sharp and cold people, Adeline had to tremble frightened.

Then three years.
