At the start when Mrazivý brought him over to discuss plans for their upcoming engagement party, Marcus was far from thrilled. But as they continued onward, he slowly began to enjoy himself a bit. Though not because he really cared, but because he was enjoying his time with Mrazivý.

“So, this is the list of people that we have to invite, but are their any others that you wish to be there?” Mrazivý said as she showed him a list of names.

Scrolling through it, Marcus’ eyes nearly bulged at the number of people that would be in attendance. However, while they were not massively influential, both of them were considered royalty.

‘I only recognize maybe ten percent of the names on this list, though Mrazivý assures me I have met most of them at least once. But how the hell was I supposed to memorize all of their names when there were so many of them.’ Marcus thought while internally sighing.

Still, he knew that he needed to get though this if he wanted to be with Mrazivý. She was a princess after all.

‘Once all the fanfare is over, we can slide back into the shadows and just support her siblings from the shadows and enjoy our lives as we like for the most part.’_.

“There are just two people not on this list I would like to invite if possible.” Marcus said as he looked up from the list and towards Mrazivý.

She raised an eyebrow wondering who he could mean, when she thought that the list was already comprehensive.

“Oh, and who might these two people be?” She said with a bemused smile.

“First, I would like Lilia to attend as she is not on the list. I know that neither of us really have a public relationship with her since our connection come from my alter ego who we can not invite for obvious reasons.” Marcus said with a hopeful expression on his face.

He really wanted Lilia to attend even if she could not realistically participate since she was from the public’s perspective Irene’s little sister and not his.

“That might be difficult. As you said she has no real connection to either of us as far as the kingdom is concerned. I also asked that she be invited, but it would be difficult to do as you cannot come as Irene and since you are known as my close friend in that form.” Mrazivý said with a conflicted expression. “If we invite Lilia and you as her sister do not show up as well, it will start all manner of rumors, from my no longer seeing you as a friend, or that you have decided to no longer associate with me, and your little sister is acting in defiance.”

Mrazivý went on to explain all manner of other problems that could occur if just Lilia showed up while Marcus could not also be there as Irene.

However, he was not willing to give up so easy, and began racking for his mind for ways in which he could allow for Lilia to attend without causing the rumor mill to work against them.

“Ah!” He exclaimed after he had a good Idea.

“What if we have Lilia come as my representative because I was otherwise indisposed with some matter that I simply could not get away from?” Marcus said.

Mrazivý sat there with a contemplative look on her face as she thought about it, but ultimately shook her head.

“It would be difficult to make whatever it is public, and did you have any ideas in the first place”

For a moment Marcus started to feel a bit of despair that he would not be able to have Lilia attend. But he quickly came up with a more thought-out idea that would work if they enlisted the help of a few certain powerful figures.

“I have already been given an order from Frostine and the king to make the next monarch a new crown, though it was of no priority to do as it will still be some time before your sister ascends to the throne. However, not many know of this, and if the king were to say order me to have it done posthaste, and it prevented me from coming to the party, there would be nothing for me to do but send Lilia in my place.” Marcus said confidently.

Naturally following the king’s orders was something that no one currently in the kingdom’s limelight could question, other than maybe Aria.

This time Mrazivý thought about Marcus’ plan much more thoroughly and eventually nodded her head.

“Yes, that should work if my father agrees to it and mobilizes his retainers to skillfully spread the information in a natural way. But this does mean you will need to work on my sister’s crown and have it ready not long after our party.” Mrazivý said with a look of worry.

She wondered if Marcus was going to have time to do something like this. It was likely to take a while to properly set up and for him to complete the work.

“No, it should not be any problem. Remember, I have little need to rest unless I expend all of my mana or spiritual energy very rapidly. I should be able to finish it within a few days at most once I have been given the materials.”

Seeing that Marcus seemed assured of his abilities, Mrazivý consented to his plan, and they had now managed to find a way for Lilia to attend without drawing unwanted attention.

“Now what about the second person that you want to attend?” Mrazivý said with an exasperated expression.

Yet after Marcus mentioned who the other person he wanted to come was, Mrazivý shook her head.

“That is just not going to be possible. This Dame Harthen who is your friend that you met when you first arrived in the city is only a knight and neither of us have a connection to her. If she was maybe at least a viscountess I could see sending her and invitation, but there is no way we can do it when her rank is just that of a knight. Not to mention her brother serves my fourth brother who is leading the opposite faction to the one we are in.” Mrazivý said, listing all the reasons that Marcus could not invite Adrianna.

At this Marcus could only sigh, understanding that she was right.

He was not a big fan of dealing with politics, especially in an unfamiliar world, but he knew he needed to at least mind them to a degree.

Nevertheless, he still wanted his friend to be there even if she did not actually know him as Marcus.

“How about we have her assigned as a guard knight for the venue. We can just have like two dozen knights brought in to help as security.”

Sighing loudly, Mrazivý could see that he really did wish for his friend to attend.

“I suppose that will not be too difficult since she is a knight stationed in the royal capital. It is not like having to many knights assigned will be a bad thing either.”
