The tower of rosario is only a place available for those who had voting rights in the state council.

Only some people are allowed to access the place, such as the founding family, those who own enormous wealth and million troops.

5 years ago, the Valluas farm had already lost its function due to the typhoon and great drought. William Valluas tyranny is causing uprisings everywhere. I need someone who has the freedom and the reputation to govern them.

The nobles started to talk after Count Wiltros words.

In terms of popularity alone, there is no family like Wiltro who strives to help the poor every year.

Im not going to be humble. If the young people lost their faith to their lord, wouldnt they need someone who was able to quell the chaos on the estate?

Marquis Shuheil burst into laughter.

There have been a number of precedents in the land where the lords family fell and the land was taken by the neighboring countries. It is my territory that is adjacent to the Vallua. I know the circumstances well so that Ill be able to govern it well.

Its only possible if its a small family. But Vallua is a huge manor where 33 noble families gathered. It is the national law that the manor is subject to his Majestys decision.

Then there is no need for us to have a meeting, it will be enough to wait for His Majestys decision.

As the unwilling ones began to speak, someone tapped the table.

It is the role of the 5 Dukes to convey the will of the nobility to His Majesty, no matter how the decision is made at the meeting. It is necessary to listen to the opinions of the parties.

The eyes of the nobles turned to the two sitting at the top, Duke Dubbled and Duke Marche.

The Duke of Marche put a gentle smile on his lips as usual.

Lets listen to Duke Dubbleds thoughts.

Duke Dubbled opened his mouth as he watched the meeting with an annoyed expression.

Youre only talking about this guy or that guy or bullshit.

At that time, the whole place froze.

Theodore Dubbled slowly looked around and talked to the surprised nobles.

Is there any one who gathered here for the people of Vallua? Everyone ran away as their eyes turned greedy.

Please dont talk like that Duke of Dubbled! How can you say that nobles prioritize self-interest over the people waiting for relief!

Count Wiltro lashed out at the Duke of Dubbled, but Theodore Dubbled laughed.

Dont say that to me when you know everything.

Lord Dubbled!

If you dont think so, why dont you hand over the data and property of Vallua to the Imperial Palace, and put only troublesome land of Vallua on the agenda?

The conference hall was quiet again. Theodore, who closed his eyes, lightly rubbed his temples.

You dont need to hide it. Afterall, well end up doing an auction, only the wealthiest ones could win it.

The nobles groaned, but could not refute it. As the atmosphere subsided, Theodore looked at the Duke of Marche.

Its a fight between me and Lord Marche, so lets finish this.

Im in trouble. Im a bit greedy for this.

Why are you so greedy when youre so old? No matter what you offer, Im going to do more.

Well, then I wont back down any longer.

The eyes of Theodore Dubbled and Igor Marche collide in the air, sharply.

***

At the request of godmother, I took a break from the break room and returned to see a familiar boy.

Johann.

Yes.

Johann approached me with a face as indifferent as ever.

What brings you here?

This is the center of the island, and it was not a place that Johann, who attended an overseas academic institute, could find.

Johann looked at me for a long time and slowly opened his mouth.

Im just passing by.

Passing by?

Its also not a place people usually pass by.

As I blinked, my godmother next to me covered her mouth as her shoulders shook.

Yes, What a coincidence.

She laughed at the end of her words, so I tilted my head. But Johann answered politely.

Did I become an uninvited guest?

No way, the oldest son of Dubbled couldnt be an uninvited guest.

Godmother is right.

In society, those who came in uninvited are considered to be rude, but at least there was no one here who was displeased with Johann visit.

The young ladies couldnt take their eyes off Johann, and even the old ladies looked at us curiously.

Johann is a genius who entered the best academic institution on the continent without even going through the seminary. People who are greedy with their childrens education cannot help but be interested.

In addition, he is a boy who is sure to take over the title as the eldest son of Dubbled, and he does not have a marriage set yet. Parents with daughters were praying for him.

The peoples eyes were burdensome, so I held Johanns arm and whispered.

You already greet godmother so go back

How come?

You dont like crowded places, dont you? There are a lot of people here.

Its alright.

Johann used to frown when people looked at him.

I just think of it as a penance.

Is it enough to be considered as penance?

No way, did he come here on purpose because of me?

Because the other kids are visiting with their parents, but Im the only one with godmother?

Ehm, no way

When I thought so, the host of the party gave him a seat with a big smile.

Now that youre here, lets have a chat. You dont show up very often in events, so everyone has a lot of questions.

I felt unspoken pressure, Would you like to get along well with my daughter in particular?

Its like I met a celebrity. I often meet with other Dubbleds children at parties, but I have never seen you.

But recently, it seems like youve been out often. The first princes birthday or a virtual battle. Oh, my daughter once greeted you in the virtual battle.

I was anxious that Johann might get annoyed.

Then,

I, Im Leila Nelkok. I, its an honor to see you!

Johann Dubbled.

He doesnt greet him.

As I opened my eyes widely, my godmother looked at me with a big smile.

Lady has a good brother.

Is he here on purpose too?

Johann Dubbled is a boy who is considerate like how he looks.

Then, Johann called me.

Leblaine.

Yes?

Come here.

He pointed to the seat next to him.

Unlike Henry and Isaac, Johann was a little difficult to be closer to as he spoke less, and had so many rumors.

But now that I think about it, he took care of me much more delicately than Henry or Isaac.

When I realized it, I felt a warm breeze blowing in my heart.

I grinned and said to Johann.

Johann-nim*, have some tea..

*Tl note: She called him formally

.

Theres Darjeeling and Assam. And then orange peco

Why do you still call me Johann-nim?

Huh?

Henry and Isaac are called differently?

I also called them by their names though?

You dont call them formally.

I blinked, and John said, Thats enough, as he reached out to the cup. Only after that did I nod my head, Ah!

Brother Johann.

.

His hand stopped while picking up the teacup.

Thats not it?

Is it a mistake to think that Johann actually likes it.

I wriggled my hands with a slightly dejected look.

Should I just call you Johann?

no.

No?

Brother it is.

Johann, who said so, smiled faintly.

Wow

He looked completely different with a smile.

The expressionless Johann looked just like my father and felt incredibly cold, but he looked very gentle with a smile.

Ive never seen him smile like this before.huh?

As I turned my head, I was amazed.

Uwaa.

Haa.

At the same time, the young children around him sigh happily, and even the noble ladies were staring at Johann with very happy expressions.

***

Its Lady Dubbled.

Ms. Dubbled.

The child of fate!

The shortest route to the Dubbleds brothers!

I was familiar with the story that the Dukes people were crazy about their new daughter, but I didnt really believe it.

Would those monsters truly cherish their daughter or younger sister?

I thought the rumours must have had a purpose. Until I saw the smile of Johann Dubbled!

The eyes of the young ladies and ladies were fixed to Leblaine, who drank the juice Johann had squeezed.

Ms. Dubbled, there will be an interesting opera soon. Our family has the largest concert hall in the city, If you dont mind, you can join me!

Opera is outdated. There are two cute deers in my mansion. Do you like animals? If you dont mind!

My family owns a jewelry store. There is a special gem that goes well with Lady. I really hope youll accept it, but if you dont mind, join me!

They were more enthusiastic than when I first arrived at the party.

Even Leblaine who was used to such things, didnt know what to say.

Ah, that.

Her communication device flickered just in time.

Great!

Ah, I got a message. Ill be away for a while!

Leblaine used that as an excuse and stepped out into the hallway.

Johann is really popular.

The child who sighed connected the communication device.

[Its Noanoke.]

Yes. Whats the matter?

[Ill report the incident in Tower of Rosario.]

There must have been many incidents.

When she heard that Duke Dubbled and Duke Marche had a fight, she groaned.

In the end, is it a competition of wealth? If Marche wins, its hard to get funding from my dad to buy suwon.

All right, first, lets take a good look at the situation..

Leblaine, who was talking, hurriedly ended the communication device at the end of the corridor.

He has silver hair, blue eyes, and a handsome boy like he popped out of a book!

There was no boy downstairs like what Lady said.

No way. At a party downstairs.huh?

Elizabeth Nodelli, who saw her frowned.

Why are you looking at me like that?

I was wondering why you havent returned yet.

Hmm, why do I have to go back? If you go, of course, its you who doesnt suit a party like this.

You still think Im impure huh?

Orphans are commoners right?

Elizabeth, who glared, approached Leblaine and said.

Ill make it clear. I dont like you.

Good. So am I.

Youre really terrible. Unaware of the subject!

Just then,

Leblaine.

Elizabeth hardened when she saw the boy walking out of the party. He is a beautiful boy with silver hair and blue eyes that became Elizabeths prince in an instant!

Priah, no, lord! Hello.

It was when Elizabeth bowed her head with a shy face.

Brother Johann.

What?

Elizabeth hardened at Leblaines words.
