Chapter 6

“…an engagement?”

“Ah, that’s great news!”

I spent my time at the convent diligently and was able to leave after five years as stipulated. The convent is funded by government taxes, so those who have already no use for the convent are given permission to leave without question. Of course, it’s not just the government tax, but most of the support actually comes from the noble families.

It had been two years since I left the convent. I was now twelve years old. A proposal came to our house for me to get engaged to the second prince of the kingdom, his royal highness prince Cody.

The first prince of the kingdom, his Royal Highness Prince Christian, was now sixteen. He is engaged to her Royal Highness, Princess Alma, the first princess of the allied Trojan Empire.

The prince was a very frail person, and even though he’s the first prince and was already 16 years old, he has yet to become the crown prince. Because of this, three factions have formed in the county. The first prince faction, the second prince faction, and the neutral faction.

His Highness prince Christian has the backing of the Trojan Empire. In order to maintain balance, the royal family thought that it would be appropriate for the second prince to get engaged to me, who has the bloodline of the royals from the kingdom of Estoria and is also the eldest daughter of one of the four great dukes.

Well, that can’t be helped. The ones who really needed to go to the convent didn’t go. One can hide away one’s bad personality, but that won’t make it completely go away.

“Dahlia can still learn to become sensible once she becomes engaged to a royal family member. Dahlia is only twelve years old, but look forward to it. She will become a fiancée of a royal family member. So don’t just act thoughtlessly.”

“I understand…”
