A man in a black knight’s uniform asked.

Noah was startled and waved his hand.

“I will take care of it. Go.”

“Yes? But…….”

“Just go.”

At the firm order, the man left the room with a displeased face.

He himself was not of low rank, but how could he go against the order of the master’s aide.

Left in the room, Noah was troubled with a serious face.

In his hand was a secret letter.

Elvin’s current location was a rural village close to the border.

It was the emperor’s secret order to organize the rebels rampaging around the border area as there had been recent suspicious movements.

This job was very risky and he needed to be cautious.

However, if Noah told Elvin the news about the Princess now, it would only add to his worries.

Besides, Elvin was far away anyway, so even if he knew this, there was nothing else he could do.

Before Elvin left, there seemed to be something between the princess and him.

However, the marriage was ordered by the emperor and the second Prince confessed his love.

It was too sweet a temptation not to fall for.

So, how could there be guaranteed that the princess would not change her mind while Elvin was away?

Noah resealed the Emperor’s secret letter, put it in the envelope, and took out a piece of paper.

Then he paused while writing a report to Elvin on the big and small things that had happened in the capital.

It was because he had not yet made up his mind whether to report the news of the marriage of the princess and the second prince.

“The timing is not good.”

He shook his head and sighed.

Why did this happen while Elvin was away?

If the 2nd prince was the light, Elvin was the shadow.

Unlike the 2nd Prince, who was liked by many for his gentle personality and kind attitude, Elvin was notorious for being ruthless and arrogant.

In addition, the 2nd prince moved in the sun and received cheers, but Elvin hid his identity and worked in the shadows.

Normally, there were no complaints, but today Noah felt particularly dissatisfied with that.

In a way, the two were similar, but very different, from their high social status to their painful family affairs and to doing dangerous things.

The second prince was a young hero and unlike anyone else, he had a good character, so Noah respected him as a citizen.

But he couldn’t help but be greatly disappointed by this.

Until now, Elvin and the second prince had never collided with each other, so there was no grudge between the two.

But, while Elvin was away, the second Prince was trying to marry the Princess.

It was still unknown which of the two men the princess would choose.

However, under normal circumstances, she would choose a nice and friendly person.

When he thought of Elvin, who always had a cold face but had a rare smile while choosing a gift for the princess, he felt even more pity.

Noah picked up the pen again and started writing.

The mission was important, but this job was also important.

In addition, before Elvin left, he earnestly asked Noah to help the Princess if something happened or if she came to the organization.

But what should he do about this important news?

***

“What?!”

Claire shouted sharply.

She looked thinner than before, but she was still beautiful.

The maid didn’t know what to do and lowered her head.

“Marry?”

The maid opened her mouth with an anxious expression.

“I’m not sure, but when I went down to the first floor earlier, I overheard the baron discussing the marriage of the lady with the guests.”

Claire couldn’t contain her anger.

Her own father, Baron Dana, was truly incorrigible.

He tried to sell her to an old and ugly nobleman for money, but was prevented by the crown prince.

However, he did it again as soon as a gap opened between her and the Crown prince.

“Which family did they say this time again?”

“Name is Baron Mikhail.”

At the maid’s words, Claire frowned.

She had never heard of that family before.

It must be an insignificant family in a rural area.

Still, it seemed they had enough money, seeing that Baron Dana was about to marry her off.

“My father is very persistent.”

“….”

The maid bowed her head without answering.

Claire looked down, lost in her thoughts.

The first maid was gone, and she was still in confinement.

The place of the missing maid was replaced by another, and no news was heard from the crown prince.

She felt strange and bribed another maid. She gave the maid her things and instructed to deliver a note, but that
