âThatâs right, our engagement hasnât been broken yet so it wouldnât be good to do this.â
It wouldnât be good if any kind of discontent or rumors spread through the country because of this and tarnish his image so she obediently apologized to him.
ââŠâŠâŠ.Who would marry a person like me who hasnât received divine blessings.â
There wasnât a good enough candidate in those documents [bio data and investigation reports] that Soratek confiscated from her today.
âWhat is going to happen to Lord Soratek and the heroine?â
The heroine was the Earls daughter and had received the blessings from the God of Fertility Frey. The mark is supposed to bring about good harvest and prosperity to the country, she was appropriate to be the Queen.
ââŠâŠâŠWell, itâs not like I can receive divine blessings even if I wish for it.â
She was prepared for her engagement to be broken but she didnât want to live miserably after that.
As long as she leaves Soratek to the heroine, they would certainly reach their happy ending.
Thatâs whyâŠâŠâŠthe first thing that she needed to do was to manage a territory in this game. After all, that is the main pleasure of this game.
But since Selesina didnât have any territory under her name, the first thing that she needed to do was get a hold of some territory.
The prosperity of the territory depends on the divine blessings of the landlord, or so it is said.
Selesinaâs father was blessed by the Sun God Saul, which is supposed to bring a stable climate and good harvest.
âAh? What if something horrible happens if I get the territoryâŠ..â
Itâs not surprising to think that a person without blessings like me would bring something like a drought, a huge tornado, or a demon invasion. She wouldnât like that but she cannot leave things as they are either.
She suddenly thought of a good idea.
âIâll borrow some land from father!â
By doing so, the land will still be blessed because it is owned by him.Â
Thatâs a good idea she thought as she clapped her hand.
She didnât want to bring inconvenience to the people of the territory anyway.
Selesina just wanted to live to her old age happily.
âIt will be meaningless if Iâm exiled thoughâŠâŠ.â
Well, even if weâre to be exiled, as long she had knowledge it should be fine.Â
Hereafter she should try and learn various things that will be useful to her.
Even so, there was no way that her father would immediately agree to her borrowing some territory.
First, letâs sneak into his territory, Selesina thought.
She decided to go to the territory with her maid, Anna, in a carriage.
Selesina didnât often leave her house as she was despised for not having blessings.
She would hate it if she were told something by another noble when she goes outâŠâŠ..
She would also hate it if her family was humiliated because she went out.
Thatâs why Anna was really shocked that she wanted to go out.
When she looked out of her window she saw several couples who seemed to be happily shopping.
â Thatâs right, going on a date would certainly bring them closer.â
As a noble, you really cannot freely visit the town. Even more so for the heroineâŠâŠ..who was supposed to have a weak constitution and therefore was taking treatment in the countryside. It wasnât a grave illness so she was out shopping in the village.
In other words, they were supposed to have an incognito date.
The prince and the heroine, disguised with just a pair of glasses went to town.
It would be impossible normally but since this was a game, he was not found out.
âWell, this is not the game so there is no way that something like that wouldâŠâŠâŠtheyâre there!!â
She saw the two of them (in a pair of glasses) leaving an ornament store.
Even if she could possibly mistake the heroine, there was no way that she wouldnât be able to recognize Soratek.
Itâs shocking to see that theyâre on a date in such a poor disguise.
The heroine who was the Earlâs daughter has lovely peach-pink hair and yellow-green eyes.
In order to disguise, she was just wearing a simple yet elegant one piece and boots instead of a grand dress.
She was smiling happily next to Soratek, she really seems to like him.
ââŠâŠâŠ..â
What kind of reaction should I have here?
âIâll go with 3.â
Selesina acted as if she didnât see them.
If she were to interfere with her and it leads to a bad ending with Soratekâs death then she wouldnât be able to forgive herself.
âIsnât thatâŠâŠâŠPrince Soratek?â
Following Selesinaâs line of sight, Anna recognized Soratek.
As expected, itâs a poor disguise. Selesina let out a sigh.
It was a mistake to ask her for the bio data. I was the only one who knew that the engagement would be broken and the progression of this game. I once again requested her not to reveal anything to father.
Well, what she said is not wrong so I donât affirm or deny it and just give a wry smile.
âIâm sure youâve thought of something Lady Selesina so I wonât say anything. But please donât keep things to yourself and discuss it. Master is also always worried about youâŠâŠâ
âYes, thank you. Iâll certainly discuss it if something happens.â
For now, there will be many visits to the city and many preparations. She will also need more help, thatâs when she should probably discuss it.
The possibility of Soratek being the heroineâs partner was high from the beginning. He is the main capture target of the game and the other 3 are considered to be sub-targets.
As I look ahead, I see the flower shop. It seems that Soratek wants to give her flowers and the clerk is making a bouquet. I also received several flowers from Soraktek.Â
The clerk was earnestly making the bouquet.
Various colored Tulips, Gerbera, and some small white flowers. It was turning into a lovely bouquet.
She suddenly remembered that she only received bouquets with 1 flower â roses.
âAs expected, the bouquet that the heroine receives is special.â
Selesina also loved flowers and plants, thatâs why she wanted various flowers and not only roses.
âI donât really want to spy on their date. Please close the curtain.â
âCertainly.â
In addition, the Marquisâs carriage is extravagantly decorated so Soratek may possibly notice Selesina as well.
He hasnât looked at her even once so itâs probably fine but it best to avoid being noticed by them.
âIt will take a few hours to reach fatherâs territory so I want to rest.â
âIâll make the preparations.â
âThank you.â
Using a soft rug and a cushion, she hugged the cushion and adjusted it so that she doesnât hit the carriage wall.
âOnce we leave the city I may not be able to sleep due to the bumpy roads.â
âThat true, since you donât go out often you are not accustomed to the wobbling of the carriage.â
She added another pillow after saying that.
With this, it should be alright, Selesina thought as he closed her eyes.
