Chapter 12 - A Maid’s Melancholy 【POV : Eliza】 My name is Eliza. I am a servant of house Maxwell, the leader of the nobles in the eastern province. More precisely, the personal maid of Dyngir Maxwell, next in line to be margrave. “Then, I’m going out. I’ll be back late today.” “Very well. Please take care, young master.” I bowed politely and saw the young master off. I remained bowed while the young master’s horse carriage was visible, then finally raised my head after the carriage…-

Chapter 6 - Holidays are for Hunting Clop, clop, clop, clop, clop, clop, clop… Several dozen horses trotted across the plains with armed men rode on top of them. The atmosphere surrounding the men was too casual to think they were soldiers: their outfits were also completely mismatched. Some of them wore knight-like armor, others wore animal skins haphazardly stitched together to form some sort of clothing.

Chapter 9 - Puberty is Awkward for both Parent and Child Margrave Maxwell manor, study. I was sitting at the desk, looking at documents, a rarity for me. I was more of an outdoor person: even for work, I usually preferred to be in the field, giving orders directly. Not everything could be done that way, of course, so sometimes I took care of the paperwork. Presently in the study, there were only two people: me and my father, the current Margrave Maxwell. It felt somewhat awkward working alone with…

Chapter 2 - Countermeasures are Crafted in Bed As soon as I returned to my home province, I reported the whole incident to my father and wrote a letter of protest to the king and Baron Nommes. Apparently, His Majesty the king had already been informed about the commotion in the academy, and immediately sent a letter of apology. Thanks to the proper response of the royal house and the abundant sum included as recompensation, the matter could be considered resolved, for the time being. On the other…

Chapter 3 - The Prodigal Son Moves in the Shadows 【POV: Margrave Maxwell】 “...is Dyn still in bed?” “Yes...he had quite a long night, after all.” So replied the Maxwell house steward, a troubled tone in his voice. I pressed my fingers against my temples, trying to subdue the migraine I felt coming. My name is Dietrich Maxwell, a margrave in charge of the provinces on the eastern border of the Lamperouge kingdom. Nobles ruling over territories located on the border have much to be worried…
