‘Huh? Isn’t this a perfect plan?’
Honestly, Kylo needed to be a little more prominent.
He should be even more so than Raymond, whom all the citizens praised as a hero.
Agnes’ eyes sparkled.
It was the gaze of a true, die-hard personal fan who only thought about Kylo.
It was hard to believe that she was the one who had slapped Kylo’s face not long ago.
***
Latium Palace, Crystal Hall.
After the war, festivals were held daily throughout the empire.
The same was true in the imperial palace.
Nobles gathered at the palace ballroom every weekend to enjoy the victory of the war and the peace.
At this point, when the nobles were getting used to peace, the recent focus of the social circles was Princess Agnes.
The fact that Agnes, also known as the “Winchester Time Bomb,” had become a mage of the Black Knights caused a huge stir.
As the Emperor had anticipated, some nobles were somewhat appeased by this fact alone.
“No matter what, His Majesty’s decision seems too harsh. How could he send a royal family member to the Black Knights…”
“That’s true. Seeing her not even showing her nose at the ball, she must be deeply depressed.”
“If the princess continues to sulk and be stubborn, the Emperor will eventually revoke this decision.”
“That’s true. She’s still a young lady, after all. It’s too much.”
“She’s honest, so that’s why. She’s not a bad person…”
However, unlike those who held such opinions, most people were relieved and thought it served her right.
“This time, His Majesty made a really wise decision. How long do we have to watch her mischief? We nobles are not fools. Besides, she’s not a young girl anymore.”
“Looking at it, isn’t this the first time a royal family member has been expelled from the White Knights?”
“That’s right! Expelled is the perfect word. She’s a record-breaker in many ways.”
“Now that she’s recovered from her illness, why won’t she come to the ball? Her face must be too shameful to show. Or maybe her face is a mess from crying.”
“I wish I could see her once, with her proud beauty ruined.”
“I wouldn’t be able to show my face and walk around if I were her. Oh dear, such a person is a member of the royal family… Does Prince have such a nuisance?”
“That’s right. She hated and restrained the saintess so much… Now she won’t be able to talk so freely.”
Most people’s reactions were like this. They were the type who wished for the princess to suffer more humiliation.
“Anyway, people really love gossiping about others.”
A man who had been listening to the nobles’ gossip clicked his tongue quietly.
He was a tall, handsome man with bright blonde hair.
He was Sirius Melville, the eldest son of the Melville Duke family and a member of the White Knights.
‘Even if the princess has crossed the line, isn’t it a problem that everyone is openly enjoying her misfortune?’
Sirius Melville looked at the nobles who were excitedly gossiping about others with a contemptuous gaze.
At that moment, Hugo Rodian, who was standing next to him, spoke in a low voice.
“There’s not much wrong with what they’re saying. It’s not the first or second day that the nobles have been talking about others.”
At Hugo’s words, Sirius twisted his mouth.
Even the taciturn Hugo seemed to be itching to talk about this matter.
‘Well, it makes sense.’
Hugo Rodian had been in love with the saint for quite some time.
As deep as his affection was, he must have found Princess Agnes, who hated the saint, to be an eyesore.
“I agree with Sir Rodian. She didn’t directly harm anyone, and the princess should be able to handle being the talk of the town.”
The one who spoke in a sharp tone was Joshua.
He, too, was not particularly fond of the princess.
To begin with, there was no one in the White Knights who had a friendly attitude towards the princess.
