For someone, the socialite of the capital is a lifelong wall and a place where they crave for a lifetime.

Even if I wanted to be a member, it was not easy to take the first step. In the first place, power, class, and wealth were all evaluated, and they did not mix words unless they were of their own kind. If I went there, I could get a decent husband, a decent wife, and a decent lover without envy.

However, it is a place where people act as if they are tightening their breath.

Those who had belonged to this place since their birth were unable to express their feelings in a single word and express their feelings as much as they wanted.

It was a silent battlefield, where the most information that would shake the empire came and went, and where one action here determined the future.

As if to show the authority of the imperial family, colourful lights lit up, and sculptures decorated with all kinds of jewels reflected the light and scattered it all over the hall.

The band that the Empress invited and the soprano that will enrich the sound.

There, filling the hall with this rich sound, a lover was dancing. Power, class, and wealth were a couple with nothing to say, even military power.

Both men and women looked at the two secretly, regardless of age, but they seemed to care less. Like there's a wall that can't be crossed.

"Naella."

One of today's main characters, Chedran, calmly called her even though she felt the eyes.

"Say it."

Their voices were so calm and calm that they could not be excited enough.

"Ready to see the Emperor?"

"What are you getting ready for? Like preparation of your mind?"

It was funny that Chedran, who is usually blunt, was worried about something new.

"He's suspicious, narrow-minded, and cruel enough to kill even his own children."

"And your enemy."

"It's the beginning of all the misfortunes that have happened to you."

Twirling-Naella took a light turn and naturally fell into Chedran's arms. Every time she turned, the ladies' exclamation spread over the flying dress.

"A greedy old man could threaten you."

"As always, you take someone precious as a hostage, right?"

"Yes, he'll kill you and put it on someone else."

"Just like you did?"

The two separated for a while and met again. At the same time, a young couple who were dancing together hovering around each other moved away.

"But don't forget."

"What?"

"I am always behind you."

Naella burst into a light laugh. It was such a fresh laugh that Chedran seemed to forget what the two were about to do.

"Chedran, it's really weird today. Did you forget about Chedran?"

"What?"

"I decided to protect Chedran, the house of Chedran, the Grand Duke of Noheska, and all of Chedran's beloved people."

"I did. You promised to protect me."

"So don't worry. I'll give you a peaceful and beautiful daily life."

After the music, the two separated and greeted each other. When Chedran reached out, Naella held the hand together without a break. Many people applauded the picturesque couple.

Taking advantage of the noise, Chedran expressed a small sincerity.

"My beautiful daily life began with you coming."

Naella just smiled brightly and faced a war that began without a rumour.
