The next morning Sei found herself in an unexpected situation though , there were total seven unknown Nobel men and women standing in front of her first thing in the morning . Benjamin told her to wait with them for the Lord , but she wasn't really comfortable to wait with them . Fortunately Harren didn't took long to come to her rescue .
"It's nice to see that you are all here on time ." Seilin was taken aback by the sudden seriousness in his voice .
"It's our pleasure to be able to serve you my lord ."
"Hm , well here she is my fiance . You all are in charge of her education . Make sure that she becomes the most befiting lady for house Battenburg . If there is any mistake you know what
Harren was supposed to be home early today but he didn't return even after the dinner time was over . Seilin was quite worried for him . She had to eat dinner without Harren because Benjamin wouldn't let her wait for him anymore than she already was . It wasn't the first time she have to eat dinner alone in that big table by herself . But it just shows how much busy Harren is to prepare for their wedding which was one and a half months away . Seilin wanted to help him with some work but he insisted that she should only work after she is finished with all her studies . It's not like he didn't recognize Seilin's knowledge , but he just doesn't want to let her work for the house Battenburg before their marriage ."When will he be back today?" Seilin was getting really worried now . She was still pacing back and forth in front of the stairs ."Don't worry my Lady , master will be back soon . It must have taken a lot more time in the imperi
Even after two hours of changing from one dress to another , Harren still didn't said ok to any of them . Both Seilin and the manager was getting tired . Even if she brings out the most gorgeous dress Harren was still not satisfied with it . She finally excused herself to call the creator of the dress straight to the Duke . The owner Mrs. Poppin came out after a while with a smile on her face ."It's my pleasure to serve you my Lord . May I help you to find a dress for your fiance ?""It better be the last one because I don't have all the time to spend in your shop alone .""Certainly my Lord . This way my lady ."After a couple of minutes they both came back where Harren was still waiting . This time he stood up slowly and came in front of her ."I... it's beautiful . It suits you and only you Sei . It's really beautiful .""Thank you Harren ."
"It isn't a good story to hear . Do you still want to hear it ?" Harren said as he squeezed Seilin's hand a little ." Yes I want to know about it even if it's a bad story , because it involves you in it too .""Hahaha I really love you Sei .""Okay say it now .""Alright alright. Well the relationship between our families were built from the very beginning of the empire . But it wasn't really a horrible start .....''The first duke of house Zaronark was a close friend with the first duke of Batternberg . They were childhood friend who grew up together . They pledged their loyalty to the throne together too . They were the first duke appointed by the king himself when he founded the Virident Empire. The two Duke worked together to protect the empire from the outside kingdom . The relationship between the two families started to get bitter after many years of the empire establishing peace
The knights of the Batternberg are totally made of four squad - white,black , violet and red squad . The name of the squads were taken from the color of the family flag . There is an entrance test to get into the knights squad . The exam is observed by the Duke personally . So the bonding is much more needed in this huge knight squad . But they train together in the ground which is at the front garden of the mansion . The ground is at one corner of the garden but it takes up much of the garden.When Seilin reached the knight training grounds they were all training, so they didn't notice her at first . But when a chunk of the ground flew towards her Emily didn't just stand there ."How dare you ! Can't you my lady is standing here. You should look where you are causing damage when you are flying around those swords .""Emily calm down I am alright ." Seilin was more flustered at Emily's outburst more than her .
The name Ray was stuck in Seilin's mind the rest of the day . She inquired that the patrolling knights will came back at day break . So there's nothing she can do right now . She told Harren too about her suspicion about Ray being the boy from the orphanage that she was looking for that time . He also accompanied her for quite some time but eventually he let her sleep and left for the night and told her to wait for the next day to come . But just before day break she woke due to her anxiety to know his identity . She came out in her balcony to get some fresh air . She stood there remembering all the memories of her childhood .As a child most of her memories were from the orphanage . The time spent in the orphanage was like hell until Ray came there when they both were four years old . At first he was the boy who gets into fight but eventually everyone started to hate him . Even the teachers lost any hope for disciplining him . But one day seilin suddenly
Seilin's all excitement left her when she saw the face of the knight who was waiting for her at the stairs . It wasn't the brother she was looking for so many years . He wasn't the one! When she realized this she fell on her knees choking trying to hold her tears ."M..my lady ar...are you alright ?"Harren quickly got to her and let her cry on his shoulder . Then he glared at the knight ."You , what is your name?""It's Ray my Lord .""Where are you from ?""I am from one of the orphanage at the capital city my Lord .""Alright you can leave ."After the knight left Harren hugged Seilin tightly and brought her to her room in his arms . She was still crying in her rooms . She didn't even came out of her the next day too . Harren was quite irritated by the sudden events ."Benjamin find out about
Even with weeks of searching Harren still couldn't find anything on the so called Ray from seilin's past . There were record of him getting into the orphanage ,but there wasn't any record before or after the orphanage . So he probably a ghost by now . When Harren finished his inquiry in the imperial office a royal guard suddenly came up to him ."The empress is waiting for you Duke Battenburg . ""Alright ."It's not the first time the empress have summoned him like this without any prior notice . But this time it's somehow different . Even the guard's attitude is rude towards the young Duke . It's not the first time the empress asked for him like this without any official notice . But this time he has a bad feeling about it ."I greet the empress of the empire ." The empress was waiting for him at her garden ."Oh it's nice to see you Duke . ""It's my pleas
The wedding was only two days away from today . And in this critical moment a disaster happened upon the Batternberg mansion . The wedding dress specially made for Seilin was supposed to be delivered today , but when Mrs.Poppin was coming to the mansion the carriage got overthrown from the road by a wild monster . Luckily Mrs.Poppin was unharmed but the dress was completely ruined . She came to the Batternberg mansion after getting some medical care to deliver the news to the lady who was anticipating a weeding dress . Seilin lost all hope for wearing a dress at her wedding . Harren was angry at the monster management bureau because they didn't do their job properly and that's why there was monster inside the capital still roaming around .After both of them calmed down a little they started to think about what they can do to avoid a worse situation . Mrs.Poppin suggested that she will make a new dress here again with as much resemblance as she can . Harre
