This Time, I Became the Fiance of a Duke’s Daughter. But She is Rumored to have Bad Personality, and Ten Years Older

"We're out of time, Sister Cassandra"

"Heh heh, I wonder when Olivier and I will be face-to-face like this"

Olivier was in the reception room at the Duke of Hagendorf Mansion, Wang capital. Across the table is the Duke of Cassandra Hagendorf, the owner of this mansion.

She has not only unjustly detained Jared, she is also the person who is planning to revive the ancient magician 'The First Fathers'.

Cassandra has an adorable smile on her childhood friend, Olivier. Shorten silver blonde, neat nose beam and shaped lips. All her big, moist eyes are attractive women. Even same-sex people have something to be drawn to.

If I hadn't had negative feelings for the Duke Principal I hadn't seen in a long time, I might have been drawn in. Cassandra Hagendorf has an unspeakable charm.

"To be honest, I didn't expect you to come see me on your own feet. That's why I sent Krista."

"How dare you do that while threatening to take the life of a prince in this country"

Olivier recklessly visited Cassandra's mansion herself for a reason. That's because I found out why my fiancée's friends were hostile until they betrayed my brothers.

"I will not lay my hands on it. I'm just saying that if you cooperate with me, you will help the prince first."

"That's what you're threatening. Do you mind if I'm guilty of national treason?

"I don't know what else to do."

"... you're so ready"

It's a childhood friendly attitude that I even felt for throwing somewhere, but she shook her neck sideways saying otherwise herself.

"I'm not ready. This is a duty."

"Obligations," he said. Is it Cassandra's sister's duty to revive her ancestors and bow this country?

"Pull the bow? Don't be silly. I don't want to revive my ancestors to do that."

"... are you not?

"Maybe I'm not mistaken for revenge or anything?

Olivier gets confused. Ever since Rasmus told me about the resurrection of his ancestors, Cassandra has always wanted revenge on this country. Because that's all she has. But I say no.

"So what's the purpose? What do you want to revive your ancestors in these peaceful times?

"... these days are indeed peaceful. I think small wars, skirmishes, domestic insurgencies are better times than they used to be."

"I guess so. This era is peaceful, even with battles. That's why, please. Would you please reconsider the resurrection of your ancestors as a source of strife?

There is Olivey on this occasion because Krista told me she was taking the prince hostage. I'm a nobleman in this country myself, even though I haven't done much like nobility. As far as my fiancée is concerned, I will be a court magician serving my country.

That's why I'm here. If a prince is killed because of his resistance, I will regret it for the rest of my life. I'm a dear friend, even more so.

At the same time, I wondered if I could stop her. I couldn't, but I was also hoping I could grasp a little of what I was up to.

Olivier Alway is here as the fiancée of the court magician, as the top of the Duke of Alway's house.

"I refuse."

"... Sister Cassandra"

But Cassandra plays the words of a childhood friend who was prepared and advanced, without hesitation.

I had expected it to be difficult to persuade, but I was shocked that they made it so easy and revealing.

Once, no, even now, I have the illusion that something different from Cassandra, whom I admire as my sister, is in front of me.

Olivier's knowledge, Cassandra Hagendorf, was compassionate, gentle, bright, and not someone to hurt. Even if I was hurt, I was a strong person who could stand still to avoid a negative chain. That's her, so I admired her. I set an example when I tried to be strong enough to protect my mother.

"I've always loved Olivier's straightness. But for me, the resurrection of my ancestors has been a long-standing grief."

"For many years?"

"It's not just my problem. My mother, my grandmother, my ancestors, they've been trying to bring my ancestors back to life.... but your mother didn't intend to tell me about my ancestors."

"What does that mean? Speaking of ancestral generations, why didn't your aunt tell Master Cassandra?

"It didn't matter to my mother about the sorrow of my ancestors. It said in my diary that I only wanted to think about my loved ones, my father, rather than my ancestors, who really didn't know if they would be resurrected. I don't think you're wrong. Something you love and appreciate so much. But I'm not. I will resurrect my forefathers. That way..."

Cassandra told Olivier not as if to tell herself.

"I can prove it wasn't so to my mother and to the people who said my ancestors' blood was humble, etc. Above all, I can reward my dear benefactor."

"Dear Sister Cassandra, are you... still"

At the end of the day, Olivier thinks that Cassandra Hagendorf may have acted because of her feelings for a human being who once looked down on herself and her mother. At the same time, I owe Rasmus for not only telling her what my blood meant when I was on the verge of losing my mother. No, should it be called love?

I'm sure she's been planning this ever since she lost her mother. For more than a decade now, all the time.

Then I can't stop where Olivier just said something. That's what I thought.

"I know how you feel. I'm not saying it's understandable, but I see. But how do you revive your ancestors? The woman who draws the blood of her original ancestors is sealed with that blood by the clear storm - Prince Dragon King. Rasmus was concerned that you would be your ancestral vessel."

"Huh?"

Hearing Olivier's words, the Duke put on a decent face and snapped his neck.

And ask as surprised.

"Lady Rasmus and you both thought I would unload my ancestors on my own bodies. I'm afraid not. I can't do it."

"Can't? Why?"

"Technically, I can. Although my blood was a witch who supported my ancestors, by the time I arrived in the modern age, I was dealing with the descendants of my ancestors. I can't be the one not to be a vessel. I have something else to do, so I won't be."

"Then who are you going to use as a vessel - no way!

"You finally realized. I thought it was weird. Why do you think I kept Lord Jared Murphy away from Olivier? Why do you think I even made a false arrest that I know is a lie? It's all to drive the magician far away, strong enough to have that longing."

I've always been wrong. From the information brought to us by Rasmus, we assumed that Cassandra herself would be the vessel of her ancestors. But it wasn't. She said she would do something after the resurrection of her ancestors and would not let herself down.

- I'm sorry, Jared. I'll pull your leg again.

Olivier found herself guilty of a major failure.
