After they finished talking, both Ariana and Raoul immediately returned to the camp to watch the hunting process. In the tent that was starting to get muddy from the rain, Ariana saw that King Alexius had arrived earlier and was overseeing the appraisal process being carried out by the people. When King Alexius saw Ariana and Raoul's arrival, the king secretly smiled a little at the two. However, his look soon turned cold again, as Queen Melisa glanced at her husband with a suspicious look.Just like King Alexius, Ariana pretended not to look at the two of them as she dismounted from her horse, and then joined in watching the other participants' prey. As per her calculations, she was in the top five of all the nobles. Ariana could see the other noble children were sending her accusing looks. Of course, since Albert was with her as her knight, many people thought Ariana was just asking her knights to find her suitable prey during the competition.But something more surprising happens a

Since early morning, Raoul had been up and prepared while waiting for Ariana to arrive. Even though a lot had happened yesterday, it was undeniable that Raoul was still looking forward to his first trip with Ariana. Imagining that there would be a time when he would be able to get out of the palace walls made Raoul very excited. Raoul knew in three days he would be out to go to the northern border. But the trip with Ariana will definitely be different because this trip will be his first date with Ariana.Yes, a date. Because from the books Raoul read, when a girl and a boy walked together to enjoy something, that trip could be called a date.While Raoul was waiting for Ariana's arrival on the terrace of his castle, his keen ear heard a rustling sound from the road that Ariana and Valencia used to walk. Raoul immediately stood up to greet Ariana's arrival. But his face turned wary, when he saw two young men in simple clothes.“Your Highness, it's us, Ariana and Valencia.”When Ariana sa

As they were walking around, Raoul subconsciously stopped when he saw a weapon shop selling swords and various other weapons that looked pretty. His gaze was focused on a slender sword with an extremely sharp-looking blade. Although the sword Ariana had given him was no less beautiful and sharp, it was already starting to be too small for Raoul, who was in his growth period. Raoul had been taught how to judge the quality of a sword by Valencia. And he immediately knew that the beautiful-looking sword has excellent quality.Because Ariana was always watching Prince Raoul from time to time, the girl also glanced at the sword that the prince admired secretly. For some reason, she felt that the sword, with the sword her grandfather gave her, had similarities with that sword in various places. Ariana walked up to Raoul, then invited him to enter the shop and see the sword that the man wanted up close.“There's no need for that, Aria. My sword is still good enough to use.”When Raoul found

After Valencia left, her two brothers actually walked over to meet Ariana. They were so handsome that even though Alison's family had a lot of hostility from other families at the moment, their charms still couldn't stop many girls from approaching them openly.“My Lady.”When they arrived before Ariana, the two of them lowered their heads slightly to greet Ariana. Ariana returned the greeting by nodding and smiling. Unlike their father and sister, Ariana knows that these two are a bit more relaxed and enjoy joking around with other people.“Did Lady Aria come alone to this party?” asked Luke the eldest brother. Ariana smiled a little. To these two knights, she couldn't lie too much for Valencia's own good.“Valencia is coming with me. But, she has her own business at this party, so I let her go,” Ariana replied.“Ah … She must have seen us and tried to run away again! This can't be allowed. How could she leave Lady Aria alone? Don't tell me … She met a man behind all of us!?”Cale as

After the ball ended, the hunting festival was also officially over. The impromptu shops that were opened to celebrate the festival were dismantled again, while visitors from other kingdoms who had come to shop began to return to their kingdoms one by one.Since the results of this year's hunting festival were excellent, most people would rest for a day or two to restore their strength. But, Ariana didn't have time to rest, as she paid more attention to Prince Raoul in his last days in the capital. The girl came with various useful items for the prince, as well as telling him seriously what he had to remember while in the army. Only on the last day, Ariana came with military clothes and books when she visited Prince Raoul in his secluded castle.“Raoul, since you were immediately appointed as General by His Majesty, you should read plenty of military tactics books to learn how to lead an army. I also heard that the weather there is colder than in the capital and the surrounding area.
