Chapter 9

A DEAL WITH THE ARCHDUKE

Zabrina's Pov

"Your Highness! I already found the economics and politics book you need" sambit ni Sir Adolf at pinakita sa akin ang dalawang makakapal na libro. Lumapit ako sa matanda at kinuha ang mga ito. It look quite old and haven't been used nor opened.

"Thank you Sir Adolf" pagpapasalamat ko kay Sir Adolf at naglakad pabalik sa kinauupuan ko habang dala dala ito. Nilapag ko ang libro sa lamesa at nakita ko naman na sumunod sa akin si Sir Adolf. Papunta ito sa kanyang lamesa na nakapuwesto makalagpas ng akin.

"Don't ooverwor yourself, princess" huling saad ni Sir Adolf bago siya tuluyang makapunta sa kanyang lamesa. I smile at him to give my answers, though I'm not sure if I can really help that.

Now I will start reading these books one by one!

Binuklat ko ang unang libro and It is about politics. And it says that...

Entre un Dux
"A better leader, a better country"

Written by: ***** *****

A ruler should have an exceptional characteristic to rule over his or her kingdom. Therefore, these are the following characteristics a leader should have....

Characteristic of a leader:
• Good at communicating
• Have no empathy
• Have self confidence
• Have integrity
• Know about accountant
• Have humility
• Creative
• Have a goal
• Have passion
• Know how to handle delegations
• Resilient
• Respectful towards other noble
• Have positivity
• Have power
• Have connections

Hmm? Sumasakit ang ulo ko sa mga nabasa ko. I don't know that being an empress is this hard. And I can say that I only have about ⅔ of the characteristics that are given. Well atleast it isn't below half. Because first of all, to be a great leader of this kingdom. I shall gain power, connections and communicate with other nobles.

But how will I do that? Napahalumbaba ako sa lamesa at tumingin sa itaas. Baka sakaling may maisip ako sa ginagawa.

Ngunit nang walang maisip napatingin ako sa libro na hawak ko kanina. It's the book of informations about all nobles in the kingdom are. Maybe I'll search for some people I can deal with to built connection.

Binuksan ko ang libro at nilipat sa huling pahina na binabasa ko kanina. I analyze the given information at nanlaki ang mga mata ko nang makitang nandoon ang pangalan ni Narzicus. So that means, hindi talaga ako namamalikmata kanina na kasama siya sa mga noble...

I scanned the whole page that gave all the information about him...

Narzicus Recuerdo
'Archduke of Recuerdo Estate'
Ruler of the North since 1825-present
> leader of the dark magic tower
> famous with the noble ladies/men
> have 50% riches of the Lunarwart Empire
>have connection with the ducal houses and nobles
>a businessman
>relatives from the empire of Nervada and Empire of Gelliurma

Wow! He's such a big deal. I'm really surprised, because I didn't imagine that he is quite famous. Napakurap kurap pa ako ng mata sa dami ng mga binanggit na impormasyon patungkol kay Narzicus na hindi ko na binasa pa. But he is just 25 years old and this is issued years ago! How can he be so successfull? Arrghhh! I'm so jealous!
