The next morning, Ahcehera and Richard arrived at the academy together.
The atmosphere buzzed with whispers and curious glances as the news of their engagement spread like wildfire over Starnet.
Discussions ranged from admiration to disbelief, with many questioning why the princess had been paired with Richard, the third son of Duke Mors, instead of the renowned Major General Richmond Mors, the youngest hero.
However, Richard and Ahcehera maintained their composure and moved across the academy grounds with a confident, relaxed demeanor.
They knew the scrutiny was inevitable and chose not to let it affect them outwardly.
There's a lot of work to do... Ahcehera, meanwhile, sat by herself in her office, planning schedules and mission reports.
Her workstation was bathed in a golden glow as the morning sun streamed in through the window.
