"A toast to the legendary earl, Vandread Le Crozerea, the savior of our kingdom and to his blessed marriage to my only daughter, Princess Camilla." Inviting everyone in the banquet hall to share a drink with him, King Asdromos Sulivec raised his glass with a smirk at the corner of his lips.
Excitement was high, but not because the king was there; rather, it was due to the arrival of the earl.
It was precisely at that time that Earl Vandread arrived with his wife, Princess Camilla Sulivec–who was the sole heir to the throne of King Asdromos–who was accompanied by him. Her arms were wrapped around the Earl's left arm in such a way that it appeared as if she had him completely protected from any other maidens who were present in the banquet hall.
Because the earl had, in fact, captivated the attention of quite a few ladies who were present in the hall, the princess could not be faulted for the course of action that she had taken.
