Chapter 3



「I’d like to offer my daughter as a token of my gratitude. It would be nice to have her beauty.」

No, he doesn’t need it.

The emperor thought so, but he found no reason to refuse it.

Above all, he was reluctant to return that little child to the stupid king who gestured to his daughter and said ‘it would be nice to have her beauty.’

Eventually, the emperor decided to take charge of Rieta.

But there was a problem here as well.

The residency of the little princess.

The Kingdom of Liz was too small to be entrusted directly to the royal family, and the reputation of being a lady of the palace was too low to be considered a regular noble.

The Emperor discussed this with his brother, Duke Mayer.

The iron-hearted, bloody Duke, known as one who would not bleed a single drop of blood even if he was stabbed, was the emperor’s most trusted advisor.

“It can’t be helped.”

The Duke slightly wrinkled his sharply angled eyes.

“I’ll take care of the Princess.”

He was the younger brother that the emperor cherished like his own self, and was in the most suitable position to serve an ambiguous princess.

Thus, Rieta lived in the mansion of Duke Mayer.

The first day, on her arrival at the Duke’s mansion.

The nine-year-old girl politely bowed her head and said this in her poor imperial language.

Thank you. I will repay you with all due respect.

The duke looked down at the child without saying anything.

It was also because he had no expectations in the first place.

He just hoped she wouldn’t get caught up in any trouble.

But Rieta was sincere.

She thought it was right to repay the favor to those who fed and give her place to sleep.

“Nice to meet you, Princess. I’m Noel Mayer.”

In addition, after greeting Noel, the Duke’s second son, she was able to decide how to repay his kindness.

Noel Mayer.

The second male lead of <How to Survive as the Ordinary Lady>, whom she has never forgotten.

The protagonist of melancholic love who could never be happy forever.

Every time she looked back on his record, Rieta had to wet her pillow with tears.

She made up her mind again.

She would help Noel and dedicate herself to repay the Mayer family’s kindness.

As a result, if he got involved with the female lead.

She will make sure he is happy.

Rieta smiles while looking at Noel.

But he turned his head away quickly.

At a very fast speed.

Did he hate living together with an unfamiliar person from another kingdom?

At that moment, Rieta thought she should get along with Noel.

Even it’s just a little bit better.

*****

The first thing that came to mind when 9-year-old Rieta arrived at the Duke’s mansion.

‘Why was my father like that?’

He sent his little daughter to the empire and abandoned her, thinking that what he had done could be done by giving way a hundred times.

She knew her father’s mind didn’t work quite normally.

However, it would have been better if he had shown common sense in that he should have had ‘proper education for the princess’ before that.

Teaching about the culture and history of each country.

If he had done that, this heavy feeling she was experiencing now would have been reduced by quite a bit.

‘..Phew.’

Of course, Rieta used to feel the need to study multiple times.

She thought she would be an incompetent royal just like her father.

At one point, she searched for difficult history books and scoured her father’s side.

「Well, it’s difficult. I wish I had a teacher to teach me.」

She didn’t forget to mutter so he could hear it.

Then, King Liz heard her words and began to laugh.

Laughter is a good sign, right?

Perhaps he would praise her for her will to learn.

King Liz, who had been laughing for a long time, managed to calm down and patted her on the shoulder.

「Rieta, I read that book when I was five years old. But you’re still having a hard time? Haha, I’m dying of laughter.」

「……」

It wasn’t.

In addition, he even went so far as to call out a list of other books he had read at the age of five.
