In the Imperial Palace, it can be seen alot of nobles attending a room with a big table on the middle
" A noble meeting out of nowhere? "
" Nonsense! It could be an important announcement by the emperor! "
" Why did the emperor called out though? "
The whispers can be heard by Felix, The princess's personal guard but he stand still like he didn't hear anything from them
He was keeping guard at the nobles trying to see if all of them are in the right places and if all of them are there, after all the emperor's invite was too sudden and other nobles might try to dismiss it
" THE EMPEROR! HIS MAJESTY, CLAUDE DE ALGER OBELIA IS ENTERING! "
When all the nobles heard the announcement and after claude entered, all the nobles can be seen bowing down at the sight of him
" Felix, is everyone here? " Claude asked, while going down the stairs, he sat on the chair that was prepared for him and glared at the nobles who was still bowing
" Yes, your majesty everyone's already here "
" Good, all of you can sit down now " After those words were said, all the nobles came sat down not wanting to anger their tyrant of a emperor
" The reason why I called you here is because The Agriche finally replied to my letter, when I offered to destroy their home, Lante offered a contract marriage " Claude smiled slyly
' so the reason of this meeting is to send one of our daughters to a contract marriage to those monsters?!? ' half of the nobles thought, they wouldn't want to be relatives as those 'monsters' that they mention
" Y-your m-majesty, did you think of sending the princess there? " A viscount asked, the others were shocked to hear someone suggesting to send the imperial princess
' THE IMPERIAL PRINCESS THAT HE SIMPLY ADORES!? IS HE CRAZY?! '
Claude's smile faded down, he didn't like the fact someone suggested to send his daughter to a marriage when she is still young to have a husband
" Viscount Hessen, I didn't know you had a death wish... " He answered, making the viscount quietly shuts up and try to cover up the trauma that was newly infected by their emperor
' his Majesty's mood seemed to worsen, the only reason his accepting this offer because there's going to be a lot of casualties if we went to war ' Felix thought, while looking at the emperor who was still glaring at the viscount planning the viscount's death in his mind
" Your majesty, may I ask who will be the groom? If they offered a contract marriage they could've said the name of the groom " Duchess collein asked, the perked alot of nobles in the room since they were also curious on who was the groom
" Mhmmmm, what was the groom's name again Felix? "
" It was 'Jeremy Agriche' your majesty" Felix answered while he sweat dropped at the emperor when he forgot the groom's name
Then a fight started, it was about on who was gonna send their daughters to the 'monsters den' it wasn't much a bother to the emperor since he really liked people suffering after all
" Duke Alpheus, didn't you have a ward in your home? " Marquis Conrad asked, the nobles that were at the meeting was suddenly surprised about the fact a Marquis tried to provoke a duke in the noble meeting
" Yes... Is there something wrong with it? Marquis Conrad " It seemed like a normal question but Duke alpheus coldly stated the 'marquis' part to make the one provoking him remember about the difference of their status, the Marquis was a bit stunned but played off the act well
" Are you thinking of sending her? "
' I was planning on using her to the gain the emperor's affection but it'll be useless now since the princess was blocking the way.. ' Roger thought, it wasn't much a hassle but he doesn't know how to use jennette as a pawn now after all the princess was a big issue
" If his majesty allows, I'm willing to send her "
" Good, now that's decided... Everyone can leave now " After that Claude left the room not leaving a single glance nor thoughts about sending another child to athanasia's place, he was satisfied that another person was taking his daughter's position to the marriage
" Sire, are you sure about sending lady margarita? " Felix questioned, he knows that jennette was one of athanasia's friend that she preciously placed onto her heart
" What about it? "
" Well... Lady margarita is one of the princess's friends... "
" She has friends?... "
Claude looked at felix dumbfounded about the fact his daughter actually has friends, felix didn't know how to react at the emperor's words so he just answered it with a 'yes' to confirm
" I'll just add rules at the contract about not hurting her and not letting a single stand of her hair must not get missing or war shall start since she is my daughter's friend "
And in the end, they all agreed to send Jennette margarita to the agriche for the contract that the agriche offered
Meanwhile,
Jennette can be seen drinking tea alone, at the garden without a maid beside her
" It's very quiet today, Sir Roger suddenly got called to the imperial Palace... I wonder what happened "
She stirred her tea, feeling quite stuffy after a few visits at the princess
" No! No! No bad thoughts today! Today is a great day to be smiling! " She pumped up her fist showing she was confident on smiling all day, she then looked at the birds flying at the sky
" They look.... Free... "
