Not only the people are opposed to his behavior but also his subordinates and even neighboring countries who intend to start a war under the pretext of his bad behavior. Anywhere Gaius could suppress or even get rid of them. After that he filled vacant positions in his kingdom with his relatives.
Now no one can oppose his words. And today a banquet is held to welcome the five concubines.
“Congratulations to His Majesty!”
The guests who were present shouted together. Then they ate and drank and talked loudly.
Apollonia comes with an inconspicuous dark blue dress. As usual he hid behind a servant at the end of the banquet hall. Actually, he only intended to show his face and leave immediately. But he accidentally hit one of the concubines who was carrying a glass of wine.
“Aduh.. Beware dong”
Catherine Loenheim rebuked Apollonia with her hoarse and shrill voice while wagging her beautiful brownish-red hair.
“I almost spilled this wine on my dress.”
As a low-caste noble of the district, Catherine was the first woman to obtain a proposal from Gaius. As Gaius' trust soars, he secretly disguises himself and uses Catherine to secure his position.
“Not a concubine without a Queen is the owner of the palace itself?”
10 Days after the concubines arrived, the other concubines quickly responded to the situation and bowed to Catherine whenever they passed. But Catherine Loenheim begins to search for new prey to assert her position.
Catherine needed a high-status noble to strengthen her position. But also the one whom He could have sent to meet his needs. Simply put, he needs a woman he can easily influence.
Just as Catherine was looking for Apollonia accidentally appeared before her.
” Her Royal Highness Princess Nia.”
Princess Apollonia was a young Naiv girl who was disliked by the King because the King loved her older brother Paris. A simple Princess Paras who would look beautiful if only the Princess dressed up a little, and because of her ambiguous position might her personality be weak and fragile.
“Nice to meet you Princess Nia”
He deliberately called Apollonia by the name that the late King and Princess had called him. For Catherine some sort of subtle claim to her power. The princess of Apollonia who had forgotten about such a changed world was bewildered by the call. This meeting was witnessed by many people who were curious whether Catherine would be called the Queen by the Princess herself?
“I bumped into you.. I'm sorry Madam”
“Ah it's okay I'll be kind.. Wait what did you say?”
Catherine who had been nodding to accept Apollonia's apology immediately glared. This foolish woman calls a Queen ‘Nyonya’?. Now he believes the Princess did not get the right education. Catherine originally only intended to discipline Apollonia gently but for her the Princess was a spoiled child then she would rebuke harshly.
“Princess please don't go for a minute”
Catherine Loenheim turned around and called Apollonia while raising her lips in a proud and loud tone as a sign that she wanted everyone to listen. The several Nobles understood and began to gather one after another.
the relationship that would form between the Royal Descendant and the mistress of the King was certainly an interesting spectacle.
“It looks like We haven't officially known each other before..”.
Although Catherine said “saling” she blatantly insinuated Apollonia who did not bow to her. Of course He was intentional in order to cause criticism of Apollonia.
Catherine bowed her throat excessively and looked right at Apollonia. Like a mother who teaches her child manners.
“Well now try you do also”
The woman wanted to assert her position by obtaining the official hunchback from the Princess. But Apollonia once again replied to him with an informal greeting while looking at Catherine.
