※Special note: A huge sword nerd (spends most of the day in the training ground)】

“Oh, you like swords.”

Should we try approaching it this way?

There is no better way to become close than by developing common interests.

Although I don’t know much about swords, I am more than willing to learn from now on for Dane’s sake.

‘Yes, right now.’

I asked the maid to get me a training uniform and headed straight to the training ground located to the east of the annex.

Wait a minute, Dane Diat.

I’m going.

* * *

Meanwhile, at the same time.

Dane, who was training at the training ground as usual, received a call from his father and headed to the main building.

“Did you call, Father?”

“Yes, Dane. I have something important to tell you.”

“What is it?”

Benjamin looked up from the paper he was reading and looked at his son.

“It’s about your cousin.”

“Ah, that, that, that… … that?”

Dane, who would not remember anything he was not interested in even if he died, tilted his head.

Benjamin gave a vague affirmative and continued talking.

“I’m really worried. The Countess of Charophet has had financial problems since long ago. That child probably has a lot of unfulfilled desires in that regard.”

Although Shailene had been acting quite well since she came into the duke’s residence, he felt he couldn’t relax.

The original problem tends to explode when you let your guard down.

“So you keep a close eye on him, Dane. Don’t let him have any foolish thoughts.”

It would be much better to delegate this role to a son with a good personality rather than a daughter who rebels at every turn.

“Okay, Dad. Don’t worry and leave it to me.”

Dane accepted his father’s request with a warm smile.

To be honest, I don’t care about my cousin whose name I don’t even know exactly, but I don’t want him to cause trouble and harm the family.

‘We should be closer from now on.’

That way, we can keep an eye on this person of interest from the side.

* * *

This is probably the east side of the annex, I’m lost now.

It was nice to go out and find the training ground on my own, but I had no idea that the Duke’s residence was this large.

This is home, it’s a maze.

I barely made it to the annex, but I kept going straight east and ended up stuck in a garden close to the forest.

If I had known this would happen, I would have asked the attendant for directions.

I got greedy and wanted to meet Dane one-on-one for no reason, but I ended up in trouble.

‘Shall we shout out Dane’s name?’

I was seriously contemplating when I realized that I couldn’t see any way out of this forest-like garden.

Knock, knock.

A faint, rhythmic sound of something hitting something could be heard.

What is it, a gardener?

If so, maybe I can figure out how to get out of here and get to the training grounds.

Feeling hopeful, I strode towards the sound.

Then, through the thick trees, a man was seen swinging a sword.

In this unusual atmosphere, I found myself hiding behind a tree and observing the man closely.

Who is doing that here?

The face beneath the red hair was statuesque, straight and sharp.

Even the wrinkles between the eyebrows that formed as one frowns while concentrating seemed to have been drawn delicately.

The eyes that were staring straight ahead shone as if they were made of melted pure gold.

If I had to sum it all up in one sentence, it would be ‘X is handsome.’

I was watching the man in awe without realizing it, and the man’s red hair shone like gold in the sunlight streaming through the leaves.

‘Wait a minute… … Isn’t that blonde?’

At first I thought it was just bright, light red hair, but it wasn’t.

She had reddish blond hair.

The moment when I opened my eyes wide at the sight of a real blonde handsome man who was on a whole other level than a fake.

Phew!

Suddenly, the man swung a wooden sword at me.

Startled, I screamed and stepped back.

I closed my eyes tightly and opened them, and there was a man standing in front of me.

“Who are you?”

“Ah, I… … .”

The man’s mouth wouldn’t move properly because he was exuding such a sinister aura as if he had discovered some kind of assassin.

He swallowed dry saliva and calmed his trembling breathing before speaking.

“My name is Shailene Charophée.”

“Why are people from other families in the Duke of Diat’s residence?”

The man frowned sharply, as if he was uncomfortable.

“It must be there, so it must be there. Who are you that says that and why are you here?”

Although he was a blond handsome man, I didn’t like the way he pushed me forward so I responded sharply.

“Ha, are you seriously asking me this now?”

The man looked down at me with a look of astonishment, his reddish blond hair running through his hair.

What, are you some famous statue that escaped from a museum?

Golden eyes glared at me with displeasure.

So I also looked at him with just as much force in my eyes.

The ratio of the pupils to the whites of the eyes was almost 80, which was almost the same.

It was at that time that I was having a fierce staring contest with the man.

“Oh, Linus. You were here… … . Huh? You were here too?”

Dane made a surprise appearance through the bushes.

There was nothing more delightful than seeing a person’s kind, smiling face.

“Dane!”

“What are you two doing here?”

“Oh, that’s it… … .”

I tried to explain to him what he did to me.

But the man was one step faster.

“This woman was hiding behind a tree and spying on me in a bad mood.”

… … Well, that’s true, but doesn’t saying that make me sound like a creepy stalker?

Is this the first time we’ve met today?

Dane, momentarily flustered, spoke to me as if he was in trouble.

“You shouldn’t do that to my friend. Linus especially hates it.”

“Misunderstanding! Actually, I was going to the training ground to meet Dane. But I got lost and was wandering around, and I happened to see him, so I watched him and thought I could ask for directions.”

As I raised both hands and actively explained, Dane’s expression became hazy.

“Why me?”

“I’m interested in swords, so I wanted to learn from Dane… … .”

“Ugh.”

Before I could finish speaking, the man’s blatant laughter came flying in.

“Hey, Dane. What’s with that woman who’s been acting up all this time? Why is she at the duke’s mansion?”

The man nodded arrogantly. I got angry and argued.

“What are you talking about? Excuse me, aren’t you being too harsh?”

“Why, are you embarrassed because I hit the nail on the head? Do you think it’s only been a couple of times since I’ve met someone who’s as transparent as Yeong-ae?”

“Whether we met once or twice or a hundred times, what does it matter to me? I didn’t even flirt with you!”

“Ha! Who was it that pretended not to recognize me? That’s a lie.”

The man frowned irritably and lowered his eyes in a commanding manner.

No matter how handsome and blond a guy was, I couldn’t tolerate a personality like that.

“Hey, both of you calm down.”

Dane intervened as we continued our staring contest.

He touched the man’s shoulder.

“Linus, you asked who this kid was? He’s my cousin.”

“Cousin? You have a cousin?”

“Yes, she is my late aunt’s daughter.”

The man’s lips twitched. He looked me over carefully and muttered, ‘So that’s why our hair colors are the same.’

Huh, you just figured it out?

Dane took my shoulder this time and said:

“And this is my friend, Crown Prince Linus.”

… … Yes? Huang, what is it?

The shock that hit me in the back of my head was like finding out that the new employee who was not good at his job and was slacking off turned out to be the CEO’s son.

In this world, isn’t the crown prince more powerful than the president’s son?

And in a romance novel, the crown prince is an absolute candidate for the male lead… … .

‘Oh, I’m screwed.’

Dane smiled and patted my shoulder as he saw me turn pale in an instant.

“If you don’t know, you might make a mistake. You’ve been living in a local territory all your life, and you just came up here a little while ago.”

“… … My apologies, Your Highness. Shailene Charophée greets Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

I belatedly bowed my head in respect, but the crown prince, with both hands in his pockets, did not move an inch.

Damn, if this guy gives me a 5 billion won lottery ticket, I might never see him again… … .

I was swallowing my tears, but fortunately Dane tried to mediate again.

“Linus, please let me pass just this once. I didn’t know you were the crown prince, and it was a misunderstanding that I was watching you from hiding.”

The crown prince stared at me silently and then tilted his head.

Whether he wants to move on or not.

But since there wasn’t much to say, it seemed like he was just letting it go. Dane spoke to me as I felt relieved.

“But you were interested in swords too?”

“Huh? Oh, yes.”

“Since when? Have you learned swordsmanship? Do you dream of becoming a knight? Do you see the Knight of the Month magazine? Who is the knight you respect the most? I am Lord Orland Belsk. Do you know? There is a sword in my room that Lord Belsk used when he was alive! I bought it at an auction last year. Do you want to show it to me?”

Sue, take a breath and tell me… … .

Dane’s pink eyes sparkled more vividly than ever.

It was similar to when I casually told a coworker that I liked a certain idol’s song, and then he explained everything about that idol from A to Z.

“Uh… … . It’s been a while since you became interested, right?”

“Really? How much?”

“Well, two or three years… … ? But I’m not very good at handling a sword.”

At that time, when I was looking around diligently.

“That’s not even funny.”

The crown prince intruded into the conversation between his cousins, muttering and rambling.
