In a room.
a girl was standing at the table, looking at the map in front of her seriously.
The girl looked annoyed as well as anxious, it seemed like she was having a problem that she could not solve.
"I don't like the development of the current situation." muttered the girl
He continued to stare at the map of the continent that was loosened on the table, while thinking of something.
The girl is the princess of the kingdom of Liberas, Jeanne D'Hedwig, This year she will be 16 years old.
She wore a pink dress with red rose-shaped embroidery around her.
Her pure white skin with a red hue filled with vitality, made the dress she was wearing look a perfect fit for her.
He was tall and in some parts of his body developed quite well.
If you take a quick look at her, you won't believe she's a 16-year-old girl.
He is growing too fast compared to kids his age.
His face that looks mature and his ideal body shape, will make people who see him think that he is a mature woman.
No childish nuance emanated from it in the slightest.
On the chest of the dress, there is a large red ruby that has been carved in the form of a rose.
The jewel looks like a gate that serves to hide her abundant cleavage.
Her face looks very beautiful, there are even some rumors that say that she has Elf blood in her lineage.
Her beautiful pink hair like cherry blossoms made her beauty even more.
She tied her hair with a low Ponytail model so as not to interfere with her current job.
He also had a sharp nose, long eyelashes and reddish-brown eyes, appearing as if he was reflecting a bright flame.
She was filled with the vitality of youth, but this beautiful girl seemed to be having a big problem right now.
The room he used as his current room was called the royal room, but to be honest, there was nothing special about that room.
Although the room was large, it was just a simple room.
There was only a wardrobe, a large table where the map was unfurled, a simple dress-up table that he used to store his accessories, and a mattress that was not too big.
The room was not much different from the other ordinary rooms, although there were some decorations that slightly beautified the room.
But apart from that, everything else is pretty much the same.
Currently he was in the city of Cervi far away from the royal capital, He was being exiled in this city.
"If this situation continues, the kingdom will be destroyed in the near future .." Jeanne said in an angry tone.
He gritted his teeth and accidentally bit his lips.
"no, I can't be like this"
He tried to calm himself down after feeling the blood in his mouth.
In addition to the map, there were also letters and some important documents that were on the table.
After feeling calm, he began to read the letters once again meticulously, so as not to miss out on the slightest important information.
The cause of his previous anger was the contents of the letters sent by the Macbian Kingdom and the Kingdom of Slovakia for him.
Both letters have the same content.
The kingdom of Liberas would become a vassal kingdom and she, as the princess of the kingdom, would hold a political marriage as proof of consent.
Thinking about the difficult situation the kingdom was facing at the moment, political marriage was inevitable.
But anyone knows that the 'political marriage' written in the letter, are just sweet words from their rotten mouth.
He really did not want to suffer such bad luck.
But his father, King Liberas, would probably think differently. In order to save his citizens and the kingdom, he would probably accept the agreement.
Besides, there was no other way left.
It was impossible for him to fight against those two great empires with the military strength that the kingdom of Liberas had.
The difference between the two is too big.
The contents of the letter they wrote said that, the kingdom of Macbia has nominated a baron near the Kingdom of Liberas as a marriage partner.
There are no bad rumors about this candidate.
He was a good young man who always thought about the fate of the people living in his territory.
In addition, Jeanne had also met the man once and had no problems with his personality.
He had a good impression of her.
But, his status was the lowest among the nobles of the Macbia kingdom, thus, he would not be able to give advice to those with higher status, such as the Duke or Marquis, as such, especially King Macbia.
The man would only be a vassal of one of the great nobles and had no important standing in the kingdom of Macbia.
If Jeanne married him, he would only end up as a low-level noble whose words would not be heard by other nobles.
The noble ladies, would definitely make it as a matter of ridicule and scorn due to its low status.
In addition, the territory that the man managed was directly adjacent to the Ephes kingdom which was quite strong.
If one day the kingdom of Macbia suddenly had the intention to colonize the kingdom of Ephes, then its territory would most likely be the vanguard when war broke out.
In addition, it will not rule out the possibility that the Ephesian kingdom will attack first.
Because, the military power they have is strong enough to compete with the Macbia Kingdom.
Jeanne had investigated the man's territory before and found that no military force could stop the Ephesian kingdom's offensive force when war broke out.
The territory managed by that man would definitely be destroyed and completely turned into a war zone.
In addition, Jeanne also does not trust him too much, even though he is being kind to people at all times, who knows what his true nature is.
On the other hand, the Kingdom of Slovakia has nominated one member of the royal family as a marriage partner.
The status is of course much higher compared to the men nominated by the Macbian government.
However, there was not a single good rumor about this person.
All the women he had married had somehow died of some obscure cause.
People were naturally curious about this, but no one dared to ask the man directly because of his high status.
There are many rumors circulating about this problem, there are people who say that the women were tortured and killed by the prince who was her husband.
{ket: the man nominated by the Slovak side is the 4th son of the present king. }
There are also those who say that the women were killed by other princes, and there are also those who say that the 4th prince was cursed.
There are different types of rumors circulating in the community, but people trust the first rumor more.
This is because, the 4th prince has an irritable and rude nature. He also loves to drink and gamble.
So, people would not be surprised to find out that these women died because of her torture.
Because of these rumors, Jeanne had a bad impression on him.
Moreover, the Slovak kingdom also sent a drunkard and disrespectful soldier as a messenger.
This made him even more upset, because they had underestimated him.
