Not the Same
The meeting has finally come to an end. Darya yawned in boredom because the meeting was all about the markets that will be built in every estate. However, it made her even bored that most of the nobles were only thinking about the profit and their benefits from it. She wanted to scold them so badly and tell them straight to the point about their greed but she thought that her grandfather would surely find a solution for it. She got tired of listening, maybe because she was dissatisfied and her body was still of a young girl. She left the meeting as soon as it ended after getting permission from her grandfather. With only Ejila and Alluka, her personal knight, she walked around to see the things she could not remember in her first life. It was pretty convenient that she can remember all her past life and she can now compare what had changed and what needed to be changed. She looked at the uniforms of Ejila and Alluka. Ejila had a bright blue uniform and Alluka had a

The Captain and His Group
The sword of the knight fell to the ground as it made an ear-catching sound, making everyone look towards the Princess’ direction. Their eyes turned wide as they saw the Princess still standing perfectly while holding her sword flawlessly good. She doesn't even look like she got tired of sword practicing. And she doesn't even look that challenged with the sword fight. Princess Darya had a long sigh after she defeated one of the Imperial knights. Dissatisfied, she looked at the other knights who had their jaws dropped. She then aggressively pierced her sword to the ground, making them all stand up straight and in perfect lines. “This is a disappointment.” She announced, with her eyes going around each one of them, making them all nervous. Everyone could only either bite their tongue or sweat in intimidation. It does not make sense that a ten-year old girl could defeat a knight that had undergone five years of training. However, Princess Darya is special among

The First Princess
The painful slap echoed all over the Duke’s office as his aid could only look down, sympathising with the young master Esteban. Duke Garrett was so mad about the news he just got and called her son from the academy to go home as soon as possible. “This is how I raised you, Esteban?!” The Duke exclaimed to his son while gritting his teeth in anger. “You are meant to become the next Emperor! You are going to marry the First Princess yet you—you did such an unacceptable thing that will disgrace the Dukedom and your name?!” The Duke was so mad about knowing the news that his son, Esteban, had touched a woman and what is more unacceptable is that, that woman had a child in her womb. “And of all the women, why was it the daughter of Viscount Morata?!” It would be alright if it was a commoner or a low-ranking woman from a noble family so they could easily get rid of it. However, it was even the daughter of Viscount Morata who had the same ambition as him. Viscount M

The Pirates (1)
“I am extremely happy to have heard of such endeavour from my dear granddaughter.” Those were the reply of Emperor Oswald to Princess Darya. It is a good thing that the Emperor favours her, however, not only her uncle is a threat to the throne but also Esteban’s father, Duke Garrett, or Esteban himself. In her first life, her uncle, Prince Harrique, did all means to harm her as the First Princess. As a young child, it was a torture to have drunken poison almost every day without her knowledge. She had suffered so much in the hands of her uncle. In the end, Prince Harrique died after committing suicide because of losing his ability to get to the throne. As of now, she must focus on her ultimate enemies, which is the anti-imperial faction. And in order for her to beat them without wasting her time with spying, she needs more achievements to make the people on her side again. She just needs to do what she did in her first life and add more foundation to secure the t

The Pirates (2)
“Please show your identity.” The knight requested while looking at Sir Theobarlt who had his uniform on. So then, Alluka took off his hood to show his identity and upon seeing him, the knight immediately stood straight to show respect to someone that had a higher position than him. Alluka got off his horse as he walked close to the knight. “I was sent by her highness, the First Princess, to have the gates closed within two hours.” Hearing his report, the knight got troubled. “A-Are you sure, Sir Alluka?” “Do I look like I am not sure?” The knight flinched as he could only scratch the back of his head. “T-The Captain is currently having a break and I could not just tell my co-knights to close the gate. I still need permission to Captain Warron— “Are you mocking the authority of the First Princess?” Alluka cut the knight, making him sweat. “P-Please show me a formal letter coming from the First Princess with the seal of the Imperial Pala

I will be by your Side
“Your highness?” Baron Ciguil was surprised to see the First Princess coming to the port of Hiague. He was so frustrated that the group of knights he was with were not able to show their skills to defeat the pirates. Why did the First Princess only arrive after the pirate ship retreated?! How can he prove that the one who defeated the pirates were his knights now that the pirates are gone?! Sweating, he approached Princess Darya when she jumped off the horse with the help of the knight she is with. “I g-greet the First Princess!” An idea then popped out of his mind. Right, she is just a girl. I can fool her.So then, he showed a fake smile and started babbling nonsense thinking that the Princess is just thirteen years old and is still illiterate about this kind of problem. “A pirate ship has docked in the Hiague port, your highness. They have invaded the Empire’s coastal property as they have also stolen belongings from the Hiague people. I, Baron Andrew Ciguil, came to re

The Dream
Princess Darya was rewarded by the Emperor because of her recent achievements. He had held a grand ceremony for her as she also celebrated it with the four captains who fought by her side. Captain Warron, one of the five captains, was sentenced to lifetime imprisonment for disclosing private information to the pirates. The banquet was loud but fun and only knights and selected people were invited. With her exquisite achievement, the people recognized her name and immediately became popular in the whole Empire. This has made her enemies angry as they are all triggered by the fact that the First Princess is gaining a name now. In the Dukedom where Esteban De Garrett’s birthday banquet was held, he was alone in the balcony while looking at the bright moon in the sky. He looked at the red wine in the glass he was holding. It was red but because of the light of the moon, it became almost the colour of the Princess’ eyes. “Why…” he proceeded to speak to himself. “Why did you

The Travel
With Alluka escorting Princess Darya to the secret escaping passage of the Imperial Palace, to the tunnel, she wore her hood to hide her identity upon entering it. “Are you sure to not take me with you, your highness?” Alluka had been asking her this, three times now. “I told you, I would leave with Sir Theobarlt, only Sir Theobarlt, Alluka.” She answered the same, three times now. “You have only met Sir Theobarlt just five times and you are already entrusting your life to him instead of me who had been with you for ten years— “Stop being a child, Alluka.” “Are you throwing me away, your highness?” Alluka started sulking. “Did you get tired of my handsome face or— maybe you like Sir Theobarlt’s face more than mine?” “I cannot deny that.” She admitted it, nonchalantly, surprising Alluka after hearing her reaction. “What? So you admit that he is more handsome than me?” She chuckled because he sounded like a kid, “I did not say anything, Alluka.”

The Race
“Please tell me what have I done, your highness.” When Princess Darya opened her eyes, Sir Theobarlt was already on his knees and begging for forgiveness. After she forgave him, he is now asking what he had done. “You have no need to be concerned, Captain Theo. I asked the owner to help me.” That was her reason and until now, he could not meet her eyes. Maybe because of embarrassment that he is a light drinker. Captain Theobarlt was just following her all day while they walked around Summeria. He would only speak when the Princess would talk to him and that he needs to respond. The Princess would just pick up random fruit, buy it, and eat it. Until then, Princess Darya comes inside a fancy restaurant. It was a bit surprising to see a fancy restaurant in a faraway town. He just followed where the Princess went and did as he was told. When the Princess sat in a spot, she asked him to sit across from her. So then they were asked what they were going to eat and it was ser

The Suggestion
It was a meeting with the nobles again. And again, her grandfather, the Emperor, asked her to present in the meeting. It was about the upcoming hunting competition that will be held in the Dukedom’s estate, as usual. As they talked about it and assigned everyone’s task, Princess Darya suddenly raised her hand to speak. “Excuse my bold request but may I join the hunting competition?” There was a long silence there until then everybody reacted one at a time, making the meeting noisy. “How could a princess join…” “Your highness, you are too young…” “We should make a rule for this…” So then the Emperor cleared his throat, silencing everyone. He then turned his gaze to Princess Darya. Since he is close to her, he reached his hand to tap her head. “My grandchild, do you know that you are fourteen years old?” Her jaw dropped as she remembered that she is actually a teen-ager. She also realized that she was actually seventeen years old when she joined the hunt
