the carriage ride was bumpy , it was also very annoying, hopefully the imperial palace is worth it .
" miss, we have reached the imperial grounds "
the rider got of from the front seat and opened the door of the carriage , Louise , my dame held her hand out and said
" miss , may i escort you "
" yes , thank you louise",
she held louise 's hand and stepped down from the carriage , after stepping down she looked around for her siblings , she hasn't been here in about 7 years and forgot her way around the palace ,
" louise , go take my luggage from the carriage and keep it in my room , i will look around the palace , don't worry i can guide myself "
< arhhh , why did i say i could guide myself , my past life's emo phase is resurfacing "
Mirin wandered around the palace grounds , until she reached sunrise garden , the sunrise gardens are quite the spectacle , it was made by my grandfather for my aunts coming of age ceremony,
< what a peaceful place>
" hey , aren't you the daughter of the great marquess , yet you can't even fight against us '
there were kids next to her just standing with their heads down , they look like aristocrats , why exactly are they getting bullied by lowly nobles
< and i jinxed it >
< wait isn't this a chance to introduce myself to the world of Argen politics >
" hey kids , stop ruining the peaceful atmosphere"
"and who do think you are ? don;t you know who my parents are , they are nobles of the house gait they own 40 oil lakes so mind your own businesses "
< pffffft house of gait , what was the house's founder thinking , but still this kid has some much audacity >
" hey you little shit, you are supposed to treat me with respect , also i don't care who your parents are , okay cause you still don't have any achievements , you can argue with me once you have become the honor of the house "* when the first born of the family takes part in a war and is knighted by the emperor then he/she becomes the honor of the house"
" H-Hey , how dare you "
" i didn't know that this how the royals of Argen are treated "
"h-huh royals "
"yes i am princess Mirin the first daughter of empire "
they all looked surprised and greeted her immediately , right then a few other people also joined
" oh look , its weak mana-less princess of Argen" one extra said
i just stared at them blankly
< MANA-LESS , WEAK PRINCESS OF ARGEN .. I WILL TAKE YOUR HEAD AS MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT JUST WAIT ..... ahhh , it because dad brought some random girl as my decoy ...>
" wait you don't even look like the princess , the princess has his majesty's red eyes " one of the extras said
" well obviously she doesn't look like me "
i could see that those extras were looking angry , but sir Leonard said
" leave her be "
and walked away like some stuck -up brat , while i was looking at him walk away somebody pushed me down
< honestly , just wait i'll fu*k you up and make you eat shit >
" where did you get the confidence to push me down ? huh , i am tired right now to deal with pests like you ,move over i have to go diamond lake pavilion"
she got up and patted her clothes and walked off , she didn't care about them right now her main task was understanding the position of the emperor in this place , she has to understand the way the court works , her dad was obviously forgiving but to this extant , the nobles are really starting to piss her off ..
she went wandering for the second time and this time she bumped into duke rosewelt , one of the 4 people who blessed her during her birth ,
when Mirin went and stood in front of him instead of a face saying " AH , YOU HAVE FINALLY RETURNED " she saw the face saying " UHHHH.. AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW YOU ?"
" duke rosewelt , did you already forget me , i feel saddened "
" PRINCESS MIRIN !?"
" looks like duke you are in a little bit of trouble "
" my lady , what can i do ? you have grown up so much its even hard to recognize you"
" you flatter me too much any how duke how is papa doing politically , are there any problems here "
"..."
" as expected dad is too soft anyways thank you duke , also you still are in trouble "
"ahh , my lady has become cold , remember when you used to pull my hair "
Mirin blushed almost instantly
"um ... umm i was only 3 years old "
" but you were considered a genius "
"fine Duke you win " and ran away to the other side
after running some more she decided to rest on one of the many fountains , she sat on the cold marble , her thin clothes couldn't resist its temperature and made her butt numb from the cold
" dammit this place is a mess"
suddenly , "kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
the duke's son Damien , the honor of his house and the person the emperor hates the most ( the emperor believes that he tried to seduce Mirin when she was 3 years old).
" y-you ...put me down immediately , h-hey listen to me !!!"
" i won't until you ask nicely Mirin "
"okay fine please can you keep me down "
"fine "
" h-hey Mirin , w-what a-are you d-doing "
