General POV:Royal Capital,Imperial City, Royal PalaceAt the same time, Luke and his family were enjoying a lively and joyful breakfast together.About a thousand kilometres away from Steeline Castle, inside a magnificent library with rows of towering bookshelves lining the walls, reaching up to the high ceilings decorated with intricate frescoes and chandeliersA handsome, domineering, abysmal black-haired man with brown pupils was sitting on a luxurious sofa in front of a desk that was made of the finest wood and upholstered in plush velvet.He was Gustave Nix the Third, the current king of Netopia, looking at the documents in his hands with an amusing yet meaningful smile on his face."This boy of Brandon is quite something to cause such a stir in the kingdom and make the whole Imperial City his admirers, isn't it, Tania?"He spoke and then turned towards a red haired middle aged woman sitting on his side, who still looks like she is in her late 20s and who was also reading the s
General POV:Royal Capital,Imperial City, Royal PalaceIn the centre of an elegant and spacious room with high ceilings, large windows that let in the warm light of the sun, and walls that were painted a soft pink colour with intricate gold accents that give the room a sense of luxury and grandeur, sat a 13 year old cute looking girl who, despite her age, already possessed an air of grace and maturity beyond her years.She was seated at a large, ornate study table, surrounded by stacks of books and scrolls, with quills and ink pots scattered about.Dressed in a flowing blue gown, embroidered with delicate flowers and accented with silver thread, she was intently focused on writing something in her notebook.If one were to peek over her shoulder, they would find her writing a poem about the love between a mother and daughter.She was Catherine Nix, the first princess of Netopia, a stunningly beautiful young girl with walnut-black coloured hair that falls like a calm stream down her b
"Catherine, I want to tell you something, but please don't blame mom. Mom tried her best to help, but..."Finally, she hesitatingly decided not to say anything further, giving Catherine time to process the situation on her own.Hearing her mother say those words drove the final nail into Catherine's heart, confirming that her worst fears had come true.Tania didn't speak more, but Catherine understood that something must have gone horribly wrong for her mother to react in such a way.Despite this, she took her mother's hands in hers and spoke softly to her while looking her in the eyes."Yes, mom, please tell me whatever it is, and we will face it together, you don't have to bear it alone."Those comforting words finally calmed Tania, who nodded her head and started explaining."It happened like this. Today, when I was with your father...."Word for word, she explained to Catherine exactly what happened today—of course, many details were omitted to keep things short, but Catherine sti
"Fucking B*tch!"As soon as her mother left the room and the doors shut, Catherine's face became hideous. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, muttering curses under her breath. Her face contorted into a sneer of contempt, and she began thrashing the pillow on her bed as she gave it a sharp, ferocious look."B*tch! B*tch! B*tch! You f*cking b*tch."Anger was written all over her face as she punched and cursed for two minutes straight before she got exhausted and collapsed back onto her bed, taking a few deep breaths.*Exhale**Inhale*Lying on her bed, when she looked at the light pink curtains hanging from the canopy on her bed, she couldn't help but click her tongue.Tsk!No, it wasn't just the curtains.It was the entire room, which was filled with the sort of feminine trash that made her feel nauseous and in which she was expected to play the role of a sweet, innocent young girl. "Ugh! Disgusting." She sighed, got off the bed, moved to the left, and sat in the window n
Same day, 27th December. Steeline castle, As the sun went down, the sky turned a blazing mix of pinks, oranges, and purples that made a good background for the night to come. Leaves rustled and branches swayed in unison as the evening wind picked up, sending a chill down the spines of those outside. It was already evening when I finished having some fun during breakfast and taking my daily study lessons with my mother. At the moment, Archbishop Freyden and I were having a meeting in my room. There was supposed to be a meeting with him yesterday, but I was so exhausted from church activities that I passed out on the way back, and no one bothered to wake me up, so the meeting was postponed. In fact, it was not a meeting in which we were physically present but rather one in which we communicated with one another through the use of audio and video transmission devices. which involved projecting the image of Archbishop Freyden onto the crystal sphere's own curtain of fog, which had

He then turned his head to face the girl seated next to him on the couch. "What do you think?""I will go."The lovely girl responded without hesitating, displaying complete conviction in her expression."Are you sure?""I have no doubt in my mind that, in spite of the fact that he is forthright and uses harsh language, he is also very sentimental and vindictive."Audrey's face broke into a smile as she continued to talk."But he is honest about how he feels; he doesn't hide anything or have hidden m
Following Day, Training grounds, Steeline Castle Early in the morning, as the red sun rose from the east, casting warm and pleasing morning rays in the midst of the cold breeze, a peaceful environment and an optimum atmosphere were created around the Steeline castle. In which I was training with my mother on our private training grounds. She was giving me pointers on how to perform and move in different combat scenarios. Nonetheless, my focus was barely on her teachings. And it was because of these system prompts that I received after waking up in the morning that my mind has been busy thinking about how the situation has come to this and what I should do now. [You have made the king want to make you his son-in-law and keep you under his control.] [The host's actions lead the villainess Catherine Nix to become interested in you.] [Tania Red Storm had now pinned her hopes on the host and considered him the one who would bring her revenge.] [Catherine's mother is interested in
In a one-story home in a small fishing community on the northern shore of the dreamlike Chaos Sea. “Is there anything wrong, Brandon?” When she saw that he was confused, a blonde woman called out to him. Hearing her, he turned to face her. Her blonde hair was falling down her shoulders, and her black eyes were gazing lovingly in his direction. She was Katrina, the woman he had recently fallen in love with, but he decided to keep her identity a secret due to the issues it would later cause. Nevertheless, he was still meeting her, and he disregarded the immediate issues, much like a person who has fallen in love. What if there were a few problems because of their relationship? He will handle it as it arises. He thought as such and grinned as he gently stroked her face. "It's nothing; I was simply reflecting on how fortunate I am to hold such a woman in my arms." Katrina's cheeks flushed as she listened to his words; her heart began to race, and she felt an overwhelming sense
