That day in the evening everyone received an invitation to attend the ball. The royal family has arranged a ball dance party for all the royal ladies who have come from different countries to take part in the bridal ceremony.
The ball was arranged so everyone can meet each other and form relationships. But in actual fact, everyone knew that it was the start of the competition.
Silja noticed that the yard they were staying in had started to fill with noble ladies and daughters and sisters of lords.
It seems the prince will have quite a good number of options to choose from. Silja, who was sitting on the balcony of her room, was listening to Mira talking about how ladies and guests were coming one after another from everywhere.
She could hear the voice of the carriage coming and going frequently.
"So many ladies are here to take part," Mira commented as she heard one more carriage entering the area.
