Alice & Alicia: Religious Twin Daughter

Honorable Son

As the order of the government of Marianna City was reorganized, Aurelis City also experienced the same process. However, considering the magnitude of the contribution of the De Aurel Family to the kingdom in the past, they are still given the opportunity to repair themselves.

Martin de Aurel was succeeded by his brother, Lugwid de Aurel. A man of almost four heads who rejected political affairs in his youth. He swore an oath of allegiance before Alice who played the vice-king. It was the first event in royal history in which a ten-year-old crown princess appointed a count from a prominent family.

"This is the first time I saw him, it turns out he was really still a child," whispered the nobleman who participated in the inauguration.

"If I hadn't seen it myself, I wouldn't have believed it after hearing his speech yesterday," his friend responded, "I myself wouldn't even be confident to say such heavy things."

"Don't let his soul be long-lived" chirped another noble.

"Hussis...! Where possible? Don't talk carelessly" another reminded.

Solid von Denburg only fell silent when he heard the speech of the nobles of Aurelis. He watched closely the inauguration ceremony led by Alice. There was no mistake or gap as if he had done it before.

"An lucky thing," Solid muttered as he suddenly recalled his protege and future lord, "Mr princess has a very good reputation and ability. I'm worried that An might become a burden later."

"Hi, I heard that his relationship with the crown prince was not good," a noble remark this time made Solid unable to ignore it. He squinted his eyes. It was a rumor he had been investigating all along. So, the rumor made him sensitive when he heard it.

"I heard it too. He said the crown prince was after another girl" said the young noble beside him. Solid was eager to refute him, but he could not move because this place was a formal hall. Moreover, the taking of the oath of allegiance is being carried out.

"The princess has a higher position now. If their relationship wasn't good, the crown prince might not be king" the nobles didn't know Solid had marked them. The punishment for those who insult or defame the Royal Family el Vierum is not light.

"I might be able to match up with the princess one day," said a young noble who was quite handsome. Solid could barely hold back his patience this time. His clenched hands were already itching to punch. He also issued a air that is difficult to explain until it can be felt by people on the right and left.

"Your dream! How could the princess want a playboy like you?" refute his friend jokingly, "I'm definitely more pan...."

"Can you calm down?" Solid first patted the young nobles' shoulders before one of them finished the words. Everyone around there was silent. Coincidentally the place was indeed somewhat in the corner and marginalized. So, the incident was not too noticed.

"Have you forgotten the consequences of tarnishing the Royal Family's good name?" whisik Solid with great emphasis. His eyes stared hard. There is anger there. "You knew? I am the crown prince's sharpest sword. Let's meet each other after this show is over."

The feathers of the two young nobles stood up. They gulped at the same time without daring to even turn their heads. The people around him felt the same pressure. Until the show was over, no one else dared to make the slightest sound of stuff.

As soon as the event was over, Solid actually beat up the two young nobles. He even sent an official rebuke on behalf of Young Master Marques van Denburg to the noble family. That way, no one would dare to comment

"Why haven't you come home yet?" rosemary asked curiously when she happened to meet Solid at a cafe. Since Alice had invited Marques van Denburg's second son to join, there was nothing she could do to expel him. He could only blatantly point out his objections.

"Tasks just finished. I intend to go home soon" Solid replied honestly. He was not comfortable accepting Rosemary's hostile gaze. He also felt awkward when he looked at Alice. At the table were only three of them.

"You'll be home soon, right? That's great," Alice's statement made Solid wonder, "Send this letter to her. I might not be able to deliver it when he leaves for a hunting event later. If I could, maybe I'd catch up with him."

"Your Highness the Princess will be in the hunt?" tanya Solid made sure her hearing was not wrong.

Alice and Rosemary nodded. Actually, the ones who really came were the smart girls. Alice is just coming for a vacation.

"This will be the most effective hunting season. I will definitely pass it on to Crown Prince el Vierum," Solid said passionately. He looked at Rosemary with pride as if he had made a great achievement. Rosemary began to lose her temper, then banished as she could, "You can go now, Little Marques."

"What's!? Hiya! Whatchu mean?" Solid is not accepted. He was indeed the second son and the title of young marquis belonged to his brother. But he doesn't like to be called that. At least his cool name was enough to replace that sickening call.

"Geez, what exactly makes you hate me so much?" solid finally questioned Rosemary's attitude.

"You're a trio of trouble makers. Did you forget?" Rosemary brought up her class studies over the past few years, "You, Charles, and Swan. Kids who only know how to make trouble. I got astonished. How could I lose to that Swan in the OSIS chairman election?"

"Oh, it's because you made the rules too complex," Solid replied without hesitation, "We just want a more comfortable atmosphere."

"Haha, so so, huh? That's why I don't like you guys. You guys don't really know the rules" Rosemary got up from her seat with a stinging bullying air. Solid Guts until shrinking. If the nobles he had beaten saw that, they would not believe that he was the same Solid.

"Ma... Mary," Solid sputter.

"I beg you to get out of here immediately" Rosemary kicked out with a sinister grin.

Alice covered part of her face with her large sleeves. He hides an anxious laugh from seeing Rosemary and Solid's behavior. He felt Solid could be a good match for Rosemary even though they did not like each other. Who knows?

"Thank you for the time you gave, Your Majesty," Solid greeted Rosemary with disregard. He said goodbye to Alice. Without daring to stare at the brown-haired girl's face, Solid left the cafe. He breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he got outside.

"My life might be difficult if I were his partner later" Solid muttered later.

...***...

"You're finally here" Marchioness Rubia warmly welcomed her new guest, "You've grown up well, Derrick. Welcome to the March van Ryvat."

"Greetings, Grandma. Long time no see," Derrick replied to the speech with a flat expression, "May Grandma be healthy always."

"You're really considerate. You should come to greet me like this often," Marchioness Rubia kindly responded.

Tea equipment has been served. The Marchioness herself brewed the tea. Just like Clara who prefers to brew her own tea.

As soon as the Marchioness finished preparing her tea, she began her diolag, "So, Duke Mudaku, what do you need from grandma?"

"I need more access with Saville" said Derrick, without further ado.

"Alice was expecting it, too" Marchioness Rubia flirted with a smile, "Sorry, I won't allow it. Let's discuss something else."

"Alliance" said Derrick very briefly.

"You really can't be patient. The possibility is still far away despite many bad rumors about the two," replied Marchioness Rubia sensitized. They were clearly talking about Alice's engagement which was more and more likely to fail.

"I never agreed Alice was with him," Derrick pointed out his original motives.

"You've been second in guardianship since your grandfather died" the Marchioness recalled, "Also Alice doesn't mind. Better let her choose."

"However, the marriage is still uncertain" Derrick said, hiding anxiety behind his cold face, "It's not good to let him get engaged for too long."

"I agree with that," Marchioness Rubia nodded, "We'll just wait another three months. Whatever happens, this alliance will still be formed."
