I have no ability, nor am I a beauty.

Although it is a noble lineage, there are as many of them on the top, and it is a class of detachment.At the most, they behave in a way that is not embarrassing to their titles and lineage, such as their expected roles, and are obedient without seeing anything inconvenient.

Sometimes it's a bad habit to be mean even though you know it.Of course, that hasn't changed things for the better.Because I can't do anything big.

It's like walking around in a maze where you can't see the exit.

I mean, where, what, what should I have done?

What could I have done?

I wish I had a passion, a wish, a dream that I couldn't at least give up.

Nathalie Théos Lavee lives on like this.

"Your engagement is decided."

In response to his uncle's words, Nathalie hardened.

Lavée Imperial Capital, Laerm, and the Imperial City.It was the first voice to be summoned to the emperor's office.Be on the lookout for raids, or all the windows in the large office are draped and dim.

My uncle asked me if I was in a place I didn't know existed and I couldn't reply.

"Are you dissatisfied, or is there someone else you've decided on?"

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

I understand that this is not about my uncle and my niece, and I answer with respect.

Nathalie is a princess. It's not uncommon for an engagement to suddenly be decided.I was prepared to tell you that I would come one day.If there is a use for myself, it is only a political marriage.

Still, I was surprised because of the timing.

"I was just surprised to think that... at a time like this"

"This is the time."We must consolidate the foundations of the Lavée Empire. "

My uncle told Natalier that he was speechless.

The Lavée Empire is currently experiencing civil unrest.Maybe it should be called a revolution in front of my uncle.Georg, the uncle in front of him, called himself the new Emperor and turned the flag against his half-brother, Hadith.

Natalier heard the story after being pushed into the back of the palace without knowing it was dangerous.I was worried that a big battle might start, but the heartfelt Hadith disappeared and was lost.The Imperial Army, controlled by my uncle, is on the loose, but without a trace.Investigating whether he was hiding somewhere, the Emperor, who was not originally behind him, did not seem to rely on anyone, and there was no sign of a military campaign.

Georg might end up as the new Emperor - yes, the days are peaceful enough for everyone to start rumoring.Natalier soon returned to his old life.

Then I understand that we will consolidate the foundation in the meantime.

But Nathalie, who was observing the dragon closely, was anxious not to wipe it out.

(But the dragon's attitude is different than before)

There wasn't anything big about it.But I can feel it on my skin.The dragons had different eyes.Natalier, who had been on the side of observing dragons until now, felt like he was turning to the side where he was being observed.

I think the dragon is doing this to me.

It doesn't make sense. However, humans involved in dragons may feel the same way.I wish it was just the Imperial Castle, but what would happen if the dragon's attitude went crazy all over the Lavée Empire?

But that means my uncle is buying the wrath of the Dragon God.And the Emperor Hadith, whose uncle was a false emperor, could only admit that he was a dragon emperor.That's why no one can speak. Neither did Natalier.

I wonder if my fugitive half-brother is mocking and playing with my uncle, who is supposed to be the overwhelming winner.

"I'm sorry to bother you, but engagement is already a decision."And I can't spend much time at a time like this.I'm ready now.I'll have you leave tomorrow. "

Georg talked back to her.Nathalie nodded.

Got it.

"...... it's a lot more complicated than that."

"It must be for the Lavée Empire."... your mother and oniisama won't say anything either. "

After a bitter smile, Georg looked at his uncle for the first time since he entered the office.

"I won't let that coward talk to you... but I feel sorry for you.I wanted him to be a little bit more free. "

"It's okay, uncle." I'm 16 years old already.I would be glad if I could do my job as a princess. "

If it's your job as a princess, you can't do it anymore.

"Speaking of which, I'm going to the other side, right?"Maybe it's a grandfather who can't even stand on his hips anymore? "

Anyone can help.I think so and make a joke.

It's Gerald Dearer Kreitz.

Natalier's cheek, which was laughing, caught on the name.

The prince of the kingdom of Cratos.There is no big battle now, but if there is anything, it is not surprising that the war is about to begin, it is an enemy state from the Mythical Era.

Marrying the enemy - that's what they say.Confirm the meaning and heavy responsibility.

"I'm serious... uncle"

“I'm not joking.”

So you're making peace with Cleitos?

"I didn't say that.However, we cannot allow this situation to aggravate our relationship with Cleitos.Cratos is also positive about this. "

"I don't think so. My uncle and Cratos--"

“I didn't think it would be the first time in these millennia that the Prince of Kreitos had the opportunity to be engaged to the princess of Lavée.It's a big job, Natalie. "

My uncle, who doesn't look away, already looks at me differently.

"The age of the prince is just in proportion to the age of the prince.Unanimously, everyone pushed you.You're the only one who can do it. "

Along with that, Natalier laughed sarcastically.

(That's right, I'm the only one who can do it.)

The Lavée Empire Princess now had two other princesses besides Natalie.Erinzia, half-sister, half-sister Frida.Prince Cratos is indeed sixteen years old this year, so it is certainly Natalier who matches his age.But that's just on the surface.

Elinzia leads the Neutral Dragon Knights, one of the greatest dragon knights in the Lavée Empire.Lord Neutral is itself a neutral, and he has not clearly expressed his support for either of his uncle's or his half-brother's struggles.However, when it comes to getting Elinzia to marry Prince Kreitos, it is very likely that she will be hostile to her uncle by the pride that has protected the border for many years.

Another half-sister, Frida, is young, but she has a rare magical talent in the Lavée Empire.Lord Railzatz, one of the three dukes who were in line with Lord Neutral, was behind him.And there was a prince named Listaird.Lord Railzatz is not supportive of Hadith Theos Lavée, but he is looking at the situation in this case.In fact, Listeard was looking for Hadith with a different intention than Georg.If we know here that Prince Kreitos will marry Frida, Liszt will definitely oppose it first.Lord Railzatz's eyes also cooled, and Georg should be able to bring unnecessary suspicion.

I wonder if this civil unrest is being done with the help of the Kingdom of Kreitos.

"... can I say hello to Frida before I leave?"

"That one is still young. It would be tough to get noisy.I'll explain. Write me a letter. "

And that suspicion is probably... right.

Now, Elinzia has been sent to search for Hadith and is not in the Imperial Castle.The same goes for Lysteard. Frida was the only one there, but she didn't want to make any contact with them.And I chose Nathalie to marry without risking the blessing of the Third Duke.The answer is obvious.

Because my uncle has some sort of deal with Claytooth.

If Natalier and Prince Kreitos are engaged when it becomes public, I can explain later.

Nathalie hated his half-hearted brilliance, which made him perceive many things in an instant.

Even if I guessed, I had no choice but to nod.

"... yes, I will write to you now."I'm a little worried about a lot of things. "

“For example?”

"It must be the Prince of Cratos."It wouldn't be strange to meet a lover or other potential fiancée. "

"Oh... it's not official, but it looks like there was a candidate, alone."But I heard they were only ten years old.You have nothing to worry about. "

"I see. I mean, the prince of the kingdom of love?"Even the King would not be allowed to have more than one queen.It could be someone who really knows how to feel. "

It's a country with different institutions, different cultures, different gods.Don't be silent, Natalier says.

"I'm going to be bullied."

"I won't let you do that.You are the princess of the Lavée Empire. "

Georg said it with a serious look on his face.There was no lying voice.

"Be majestic." Prince Gerald is not a fool.I will never let you go.... and as my uncle, I'm not going to make you unhappy. "

And I was filled with anguish about becoming an emperor.Nathalie relaxes her shoulders and smiles.

"... can I just ask you one question, Uncle?"

"What the hell?"

"If I marry Prince Kreitos, will it benefit the Lavée Empire?"

After all, that's all that matters.

Whether my uncle is trying to become an emperor through Kreitus, or whether the Dragon Emperor is my half-brother, that is the criterion that Natalier should use as the princess.

And my uncle, who loved the Lavée Empire, nodded firmly.

"Yes, of course, I promise."

Well, that's fine.

Now you won't be a useless princess.

I'll take care of it. I'm going to be the princess of King Cleitos.

If that's your role, then let's do it.My uncle laid his eyes on Nathalie, who accepted me.

"... thank you, Natalie"

And briefly, I said so.

Natalier shook his head loosely.

My mother left me at the Imperial Castle to die on my brother's behalf, but I wasn't able to do anything, I was just a princess.Just getting a role was enough.
