I was feeling there were hands that kept pushing me, and voices came to my ears.
"Your Highness, please wake up…"
the hands kept pushing me.
"Huh….." Made me change my sleep position from sideway sleep position to recumbent sleep position.
"It's already morning your highness, please get up from the bed]]
"5 minute..s m..o.re…."
"YOUR HIGHNESS!!!"
I immediately got up, and looked around to see that there were 3 maids in my room, 1 on my right side and my left side, and 1 in front of me brought a beautiful blue gown. The maid on my left dragged me from the bed to the washroom. In the washroom, 1 maid brushed my teeth and 1 maid trimmed my hair.
The maid brought a corset, and suddenly I remembered that curse object. The maid helped me wear a corset with the help of other maids. I knew this object was cursed because it was so painful to wear it and it was like my ribs would be broken.
"STOP…. IT, IT NOT FIT, STOPPP" with agony and scream of pain.
"Just hold it a little bit more, it will be over"
I kept feeling more pain because the string kept being pulled by the maid. Finally the corset fitted on me and I could breathe like a normal human being so relief from that curse object. 1 maid helped me to wear the gown, 1 maid made up my face and 1 maid told me about the schedule of the day.
"Your Highness, His Father Majesty King, wants to have an audience with you in the throne room with Her Majesty Queen and Your Highness Brothers."
"My father wants to have an audience with me?"
"Yes, Your highness."
"Apologize for my rudeness, can I know all of your names?"
All three seem surprised.
"Ah yes Your Highness, my name is Miss Bellamy Berger, Maid of Aisfield"
She looked like an old woman in her 40's with a kind face, she had brown hair, and she was the maid with me last night.
"My name is Miss Aalis Geoffroi, Maid of Chambery."
She looked like my age, that red curly hair was so pretty with orange eyes, and she had some freckles on her cheeks.
"My name is Miss Ame Geoffroi of Chambery"
She looked like a 13 years old child and seemed so energetic, like her sister, she had red hair with orange eyes.
.
.
Wait, why the child was addressed without a title maid.
"Why Miss Ame don't have title of maid but Miss Aalis has it and they are in same family"
"Your Highness, the title maid only can inherit from the eldest daughter of the lairdship, and the younger one can't take the title maid so they address it without the maid of their lairdship." Bellamy explained.
I looked both of them after that I looked to Miss Bellamy
"Do I have personal maids?"
"Right now, Your Highness doesn't have it."
"Hmmmmmm, I made up my mind, you two Aalis and Ame become my personal maid"
I saw the two maids were surprised and shocked by my statement, I just smiled happily.
"Your Highness, you can't do that, the one who can appoint the maid job is your majesty Queen so she can appoint maids to become your personal maids." Bellamy said with a worried tone.
My face became frowning "Why, these two seem fine, Aalis looks the same age as me and Ame seems energetic so they can accompany me and make my day."
"But, how do I tell her majesty Queen about this and maybe her majesty has a personal maid that is suitable for you."
"No, I will appoint them."
Maid Bellamy took a deep breath and exhaled it.
"*sigh* Let me try to talk to her majesty about this and hope her majesty can accept it."
I peeked and saw their faces smile happily behind Bellamy, they started to realize my stare made them feel embarrassed about their excitement, what a cute.
.
.
After quiet time, Bellamy exited from the room "Please allow me to excuse myself, Your Highness" and left me with the two maids.
I sat in front of my vanity table, and saw them by the reflection of the mirror that they were in the corner of the room behind me, they must be nervous. Maybe I needed to get closer to them so they didn't feel strange to me, so I looked at them and waved at them.
"Can you two come here?"
"Yes Your Highness"
"Yes Your Highness"
From their faces I could see that they were so excited but so frightening.
"Do you two think you can handle the duty and become my personal maids?"
"It's an honor to us that we become Your Highness personal maid." Aalis answered..
"Okay, let me call you Aalis and you Ame, how about that"
"But my lady, we are just servants so my lady addressed us like a servant not a friend, it's not appropriate for my lady to address us with just our name."
"I don't care about that, I hate the honorific, right now you two are my buddy so let me address you with your name and you two just call me by my name Caroline."
"Buddy…? Deep apology my lady, that we can't address Your Highness with just a nam-…"
"Caroline" Suddenly Ame said.
I was surprised and Aalis seemed to be surprised too.
"Shhhhhh that's not appropriate to address Your Highness with just a name."
"But she tell us to call her Caroline so that the order"
"Why do you address her with she? It will be no appropriate, address her with honorifics."
I was giggling, and my giggle made them confused.
"Another deep apology to Your Highness about my little sister's way of behaving toward Your Highness, I will take responsibility for my little sister's behavior."
I got up from my vanity table, walked toward Ame, put my hand and rubbed her head.
"Good girl, Yes, just address me Caroline"
"Caroline" Ame happily said it and smiled at me.
I kept rubbing her head with a happy smile.
"But Your Highness, if we address Your Highness with a name we will get punished for bad behavior, please let us address with honorific." Aalis tried to persuade me.
"Why are you so stiff about this? Let's talk about this later, this is the time I go to the throne room to have an audience with my father."
…
..
.
I exited my room, followed by Aalis and Ame. When I proceeded to the main hall, I saw your majesty queen or my mother from a distance. She walked toward me, seeing that there were 2 maids behind me.
She stood in front of us "Caroline, who's behind you?"
"These are my personal maids, this is Aalis ,and A-.."
"WHAT!" Suddenly she shouted "Personal maids you said, since when they became your personal maids, I already have a better personal servant for you and why you choose them, and why you address them with just a name."
"Deeper apology my mother, I chose them because they are the same age as me, maybe they can be friends to me, and I will address them with just a name so we will get clo-…"
"NONSENSE!"
The two maids were frightened, seeing the Queen angry at Caroline, the little one hiding behind her sister.
"I know this seems like nonsense to you my mother, I think the suitable servant for me is the same age as me so that I will not feel alone and they can accompany me anytime. Let me address them with their name so they are not stiff towards me and so do I."
"Caroline! Why do you behave like this? You always act at will and never think about what you do." The queen put her hands on her head "Arghhhhh!, do what you want to do, just don't do anything stupid in nobility."
"You have my gratitude, my mother, allow us to excuse ourselves, my mother."
"You better be fast to the throne room, Your father, Your brother and me are waiting for you."
"Yes my mother."
I continued to walk toward the throne room with Mother followed by the two maids. We approached the front door of the throne room, mother started to stare at the two maids behind me.
"You two wait in front of the doors." Mother ordered the two..
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Yes Your Majesty."
…
..
.
Mother knocked the door once, and the door was opened from inside by two guards. After the door opened, I saw father sit on the king's throne, and 4 men were standing beside him. She walked to the room, and immediately towards the queen's throne, she walked the stairs in front of the throne with fast, and she sat in the throne.
The door was closed by the guards.
…
I walked in front of the throne, in front of the stairs's throne, and I was addressing them.
"Greeting My father, I apologize for making my father wait for me."
"It is alright My Dear Daughter…"
Suddenly the oldest one of the 4 men beside him spoke..
"It seems my dear little sister forgot to apologize to her brothers for keeping her brothers waiting."
I saw that they were my brothers. All of them had inherited father's appearance, that they had blonde hair and blue eyes. They lined up beside father by age's order, from left was the oldest until the youngest. From the memories I got from the goddess, that the oldest one name was Connor and he was 24 years old, the second oldest name was Archie and he was 21 years old, the third name was Aldred and he was 18 years old, the youngest name was Charles and he was 16 years old.
I addressed them "I apologize to my dear brothers for keeping my brothers waiting for me."
"It's alright my dear little sisters."
"My dear daughter, do you know why you have an audience with me and there are your brothers in here?" Father said.
"I don't know a single clue, my father."
"Your age is already 15 years old, I think it's best for you to try to learn to oversee a fief. There is a vacant fief, you will take over the fief and manage it. All of your brothers already have fief that they oversee it."
A fief? Around this age? It was a good opportunity for me to seize power and start to change the land.
"May I know which fief my father will give to me?"
"The name of the fief is Manor of Chambery, after I give it to you, you will get the title of baron for that fief."
It was the place where Aalis and Ame came from.
"and may I know what the fief the brothers get from my father?"
"For the first prince, he got the duchy of Alsfield and he got the title of Duke. The second prince, he got the march of Imyr and he got the title of Marquess. The third prince, he got the county of Syrena and he got the title of Count. The fourth prince, he got the count of Lorentia and he got the title of Count."
It seemed to be unfair, the youngest one and me were just different a year.
"My father, why am I the only one who got the manor? Even the fourth prince got the county, my brother Charles and I were just different 1 year, and he got the county."
I saw the expression of all the brothers changed, Connor smiled viciously, Archie shocked, Aldred and Charles irritated by what I had spoken to father. Father seemed smiling about what I had said.
"Hahahaha, My dear daughter, you are sharp as lightning, I give you the Manor of Chambery and title of baron, not because of the discrimination between you and your brothers. In my view, you are still lacking in some aspects of governing a fief. Maybe with this fief, you can prove your managing skill and your leadership."
"If my father exalts me, I will gladly accept the fief, but can I have 2 favors from my father."
I need Aalis and Ame to come with me, and Louis too.
"It seems my dear little sister wants my father to spoil her." Oldest Brother Connor spoke.
"Speak that 2 favors." Father said..
"As my mother knew, the first favor is I have 2 servants waiting outside. I want that 2 servants become my personal maids, and they will follow me to the fief."
Father looked to mother "Is that true, my dear? You knew these 2 servants?"
"Yes, and she appointed them out of nowhere. I have some candidates for her personal maids."
Father's face came back to me "About these 2 servants, why do you want them to become your personal maids and follow you to the fief?"
"The reason is one of the servants is the same age as me, so having a servant that is the same age as me makes me not alone, and the other one is still young but she is energetic and smart, the two maybe can make my day so pleasant and not boring. They are siblings and one of the most important is that they are from Chambery, maybe they can help me to know more about the fief."
"I can accept your reason but I need the permission from your mother." He looked at the queen.
"Just let her do it." Mother said..
"It seems your mother approves it, how about the other favors?"
"Can I appoint my knight by myself for my personal escort?"
Father's face and mother's face were so confused by my last favors.
"A Knight? Is there any knight that is pleasant to you in your view?" Father asked.
"There is no one in the knights army that is pleasant in my view."
"So who is the knight you want?"
I hope it is going well to say his name and his status.
"His name is Louis, and he is not a knight, he is a squire."
