Kanamafu White Day Au

chapter 1★

Kanade pov.

I stared blankly at the ceiling. Ever since the passing of my parents it just felt...empty. Maybe if I had tried harder 3 years ago they would've been here now.

I could've saved them, but I was too selfish at the time. Why couldn't I have acted quicker? It was so foolish for me to think I could save both them and-

"Kanade yoisaki? If you are there it is time for you to come out, sir." 'Huh?' I straighten my back and look at my pocket watch. 'oh I guess it is. Exactly 8 am.

"I'll be out in a minute, I just need to change myself," I respond.

"You have 30 minutes to get ready before you need to continue your sword lessons." After my servant left I climbed off of the bed and went into my closet.

'I think I'll just use my regular clothes I use because I am thinking of sparring today' I first take off my top shirt and fold it neatly into a cupboard before grabbing my uniform.

Time skip to 8:25

I had arrived at the battlefield after having a cup of tea and immediately got into stance. It's been the same thing for an entire month now. Just constant training. I wanted to be sure that whichever princess I would marry in the future, would be someone I could protect.

"Hello Kanade, how was your sleep?" My teacher, Honami, asked.

"Same as usual, sleep at 11 and wake up at 6," I replied.

"You need to fix up that sleep schedule of yours, you might get sick at some point." She lowered her sword to hint that she wasn't looking to spar today.

"I need the extra 2 hours for something else." I put down my sword as well. Maybe I can convince her to fight later.

"And what is this so-called something else?'

"Thinking time, anyways we are off-topic, I will just practice my forms on a dummy until you want to duel" She nodded her head and proceeded to watch me beat the heck out of the dummy.

Three hours later

"Sir Kanade, it is now time for lunch, please follow us into the dining room." I quickly scrambled out of my desk and chair and stuffed some papers in a drawer.

Practice had ended an hour ago and I had already taken a shower and changed into my main attire.

I wanted to eat something quickly because I was thinking of composing another one of my songs.

Although there was no way I would ever show them to the public, composing just made me feel better for some reason.

'I wonder what we are having today' I think to myself.

"Sir, we must talk about something important at today's lunch, so I would recommend you get there earlier."

"Okay, I will arrive 10 minutes earlier if that is okay with everyone."

"Yes it is, I will go and inform the others."

He walked away and now I was on my way to the lunch room.
