When Rovira mentioned their names, they know that trouble will come their way. She knows their family name. It is not going to be a surprise for them if Princess Andrea will send a formal letter to their families stating the slanderous words they had spoken against her. While they are still bewildered by this sudden turn of events, the female General turns around to look at Lady Fortebard. "Lady Fortebard, Her Highness Princess Andrea said she wants to meet you one of these days." This is a slap to the faces of those three ladies who are boasting about their good families earlier. To be ignored by Princess Andrea is something they want to avoid at all costs. Before the party started, their parents reminded them to make a good connection with the Royal Family and the other well-known families that will attend tonight's party.They really put those words into their hearts. They had also decided whose young masters and young ladies they are going to mingle with tonight. But they did n
When they start walking towards them, they feel like their feet will give in because of the pressure and fear that is crawling on their skin. When Rovira sees the prince, she quickly stands up and walks towards the door. Lady Fordebart also stands up and lowers her head. When the female General stands at the entrance, Prince Marius already standing there and looking at her with a questioning look on his face. But the Crown Prince did not ask her immediately. He quietly observes their surroundings first. Rovira, his twin sister, and another young lady are staying inside the room while three more young ladies are just standing outside without moving at all. Their faces are showing how scared they are right now and they are also showing some signs of anxiousness. "Did they try to talk behind my sister's back?" Prince Marius asked Rovira. Then he looks at the three young ladies. One of them gulped loudly as they feel their sweat pooling on their backs. They are now facing the Crown Pri
"Tell Baron Fordebart to visit my mansion tomorrow afternoon. I have a few mining areas that haven't been used for months now but there are still a lot of gems that can be found inside of them. I can give it to your father in advance and just pay me later for a very low price once your family becomes stable once again." the female General saidThe mines that Rovira is talking about are just a few rewards that she received after she participated in the war for several years. Since her schedule has become hectic, Rovira has no time to manage all of her properties. That's why half of the documents about her assets and properties are still untouched until now."T-That's..." "Just make sure to tell him to visit my mansion in the afternoon. I have an appointment with His Majesty in the morning. I cannot meet Baron Fordebart at that time." General Rovira reminded her.Lady Selina remained standing there while staring at the female General with a surprised expression on her face. The young l
The people inside the resting room had a good dinner together after a maid brought them a full-course meal. The meat is so tender and savory, the soup is warm and flavorful, and the desserts remove all the lingering taste of mixed flavors in their mouths that will turn into a disgusting feeling later. The fruit juices they drank is also refreshing.All in all, they both had a good dinner tonight.While eating, Rovira noticed that the two ladies are talking and exchanging words with smiles on their faces. Their pace is not too slow or too fast in knowing each other. Lady Selina doesn't mind the Royal Princess's short responses. Instead, she is telling her a lot of short stories about herself and telling what she felt or thought about those things. They also exchange a little information about themselves and discovered that they shared a few things like their love for books or their dislike when it comes to broccoli but still has to eat those mini trees on their plate because they still
When General Rovira and Sir Gabriel returns to the banquet hall, they instantly heard someone shouting inside followed by a loud crashing sound."Assassins!"A male servant was stabbed by a woman dressed as a maid. Taking that as a signal, a magic circle suddenly appears on the floor and several men dressed in black appear in the banquet hall. All of them are holding different sharp weapons in their hands.Because of that, everyone inside the party hall panics for their lives. Loud screams can be heard everywhere. They are also scattered everywhere hoping to find a better place to hide. The knights inside the party hall quickly gather around Prince Marius who is standing next to the General Commander of the Solaris Knights. General Aster gives his knights an instruction to keep the Crown Prince safe. "Sir Gabriel, go back to the resting room and protect Princess Andrea at all costs!" The Vice General doesn't need to be told twice. After giving General Rovira a firm nod, he turns aro
Before General Commander Castella can say a word, the assassins did not wait anymore and quickly attacked them all at once.Most of the nobles left inside the party hall are all quivering in fear. This assassination attempt is really a surprise for all of them. They all expect a jovial and harmonious birthday party tonight. They even pay the best tailors and dressmakers in the kingdom to make their party clothes tonight.But all of it is useless to think of right now. They are now all afraid for their lives. Someone estimated that a hundred assassins were sent tonight to kill the Crown Prince. It is not hard to tell who is their target tonight. When Prince Marius is nowhere to be found inside the hall, the assassins start following him but was stopped by General Rovira. She already dealt with those assassins who dares to step out of this party hall. They were temporarily stuck from their mission because the female General is too strong and cannot be defeated by a few strokes of sword
Rovira has no time to think about it. She should attack these demonic creatures before investing in this incident. But first, she has to destroy the magic circle so that no more demonic creatures will appear inside the banquet hall. Avoiding the attacks coming from their opponents, Rovira jumps high and lands in front of the magic circle. Using her sword, the female General stabs the floor until she can make a huge crack and distort the magic circle drawn on it.The blinding light that is coming from it disappeared in an instant. Rovira is not too knowledgeable when it comes to magic. But the female General can tell that she succeeded in destroying the magic circle. Before she can try to destroy it further, a demonic creature is charging toward her at the back. "Be careful!"General Commander Castella blocks the demonic creature using his huge sword and kick it in its stomach. There are now standing back to back. General Aster asked if she gets injured but Rovira did not say anything
Rovira watches as Lady Rosalyn helps Roselyn to walk and follows her lead. Even in this kind of situation, she is still a gentle mother to her favorite daughter. Rovira can also see how Lady Rosalyn tries to coax her adopted daughter by saying comforting words in her ear and wrapping an arm around Roselyn's back. When the former Countess and her adopted daughter finally moved to a safer place, Rovira looks at the demonic creature in front of her. Both of her hands and wrists are injured and bleeding. But she cannot feel any pain from it. Ignoring her injuries, the female General moves her hand that is blocking the monster's mouth with a sword."Disgusting." Rovira said as she forcefully removes the sword from the monster's mouth.The demonic creature lets out a pained growl when its tongue gets torn after the female General pulls her sword that is stabbing it. But the monster is not the only one that gets hurt by it. When Rovira moves her hand, her wrist which is pierced by the monst
