When the Marquis thought ‘Why did you gladly allow the Improvement Ceremony?’ before, It seemed he realized now that it was because they were trying to create a heroine with a nonsensical romance narrative.
It was a crude method, but he decided to be content with the Improvement Ceremony being held.
If it was possible to bring glory to the Northern forces who had scattered blood from the distant land, it would have been enough for him to close his eyes.
“Come on, Nadia, present the crown to your hero.”
“Yes.”
The Duke’s daughter called Nadia, was wearing a traditional white dress. Like the goddesses in old myths, the skirt fell straight down.
It creates a fresh atmosphere in her slender body, but it did not attract his attention for long. In fact, Glenn wasn’t particularly interested in her.
It was because he was convinced that the owner of the Laurel Wreath she had prepared wouldn't be him. But he had a thought that if it's not for Lee Ji-ho, then to whom does the Laurel Wreath will be offered?
It was a very famous story that a dark-haired foreign knight was sponsored by the Duke of Ballajit.
“… ?”
When she came and stopped in front of him, Glenn couldn’t help but panic.
No matter how much he wait for her to passed by and went to another place, The lady doesn’t even think to move and just stay in front of him.
Perhaps he wasn’t the only one who was puzzled, there was a sound of wonder even among the nobles who had climbed the altar.
“Isn’t that Laurel Wreath belongs to Sir Jiho?”
“Why did the Duke’s first daughter went to the Marquis of Winterfell?”
“Let's wait. Maybe she will move soon.”
The young lady must have made a mistake because she was too nervous. Glenn whispered softly in a bewildered voice.
“I think you misunderstood me as the someone else because you are too nervous. It’s not me, the guy was on the other side.”
“I am not mistaken.”
“what?”
If she make a mistake, she will not be able to do it safely, considering the nature of Duke Ballajit.
Even though she was his daughter, it was an irresistible force majeure that he felt pity.
It was time for Glenn to quietly remind her of her mistake once more.
“No, you went to a wrong person… .”
“I have always had a heart for the Marquis of Winterfell! My heart only grew bigger at the heroic stories I heard from the Western Border. Please accept my Laurel Wreath.”
“… !”
Saying so, Nadia offer the Laurel Wreath to Glenn.
At that moment, the cheers of the public, who were looking at the altar, grew louder.
Wow-!
pop! Puff!
There was also the sound of firecrackers exploding in the distance as if someone was set off a cannon.
As Glenn, who had never been told this situation, could not help but be astonished.
“When I first met the Marquis, I fell in love at first sight. I knew from the moment I saw you, you'll be the person I will entrust my life with.” Nadia spoke to him with her mouth wide open in excitement.
