Part 1: The Aspirant Holy Maiden (First Half)

---------------------------------------

The annulment of the engagement of Prince Arthur Alum of the Holy Alum Kingdom had spread not only within the country but also abroad.

"How did it come to this?" "What happened?"

Everywhere, people were talking about this rumor.

One girl listened to these conversations. Her name was Lily.

She lived at the far western fort (which was essentially the countryside) and was now on her way to the capital due to the fallout from the annulment of the prince's engagement, with whom she had no acquaintance.

Her parents had been transferred to the eastern fort, and Lily was to stay with her mother's family, the Tinam Earl's household, in the capital.

During her stay in the capital, Lily was supposed to work at a job introduced by her cousin, Noah, the second son of the Tinam Earl.

Noah had told her in advance that it was a job that involved using light magic.

Yes, it was supposed to be just a job that involved using light magic.

However, as she heard the rumor of the "recruitment of a holy maiden aspirant and a princess for the prince" wherever she went, Lily became filled with anxiety.

The job she was supposed to do should have nothing to do with the rumored prince.

No matter how many times she told herself this, the fact that the job requirements matched the recruitment conditions made her feel uneasy...

Well, bad premonitions usually come true, don't they? (Tears)

Accidentally added to the list of holy maiden aspirants, Lily, while witnessing the fierce romantic battles between the other aspirants, the duke's daughter Olivia, and the baron's daughter Poppy, tried to earn a commendation to go to the eastern fort.

Chapter 2: The Aspirant Holy Maiden (Second Half)

---------------------------------------

With a mountain of work and a headache-inducing problem—Prince Arthur's days were busy.

The negotiations with the beastmen of the Nograye Forest and the dragonmen of the Plateau Mountains, which started at a disadvantage, were causing a lot of domestic criticism due to the lack of precedent, and he was struggling with them.

His younger brother and uncle, Daniel, who he relied on, was also fed up with the pressure from his surroundings and wanted to go abroad for further studies.

Arthur, who had been fully utilizing his high abilities and sacrificing himself to deal with the situation, was also approaching his limit.

Feeling down, Arthur decided to take everyone out to the town below the castle before the summer solstice festival to take a break.

However, he ended up getting lost with Silver and Lily?!

Noah, who was left behind, rushed to Daniel to try to deal with the situation.

At the same time, in the deepest part of the Nograye Forest, in the village of the great tree.

The village chief, Oberon, was about to unjustly condemn and execute his fiancée, the fairy princess Tania.

Robin, a servant who secretly had feelings for Tania, helped her escape from the village.

Their escape developed into a major incident, involving the beastmen of the Nograye Forest, and Silver, Lily, and Arthur, who happened to be there, were involuntarily drawn into it.

Part 3: The Financial Troubles of the Richest Nation

---------------------------------------

Due to the influence of the war that broke out in the eastern continent, the logistics of the Holy Alum Kingdom were gradually decreasing.

Then, the beastmen proposed a deal that the kingdom had been hoping for—large-scale trade.

Arthur was happy to agree, but he could not prepare the compensation that the beastmen desired.

How could the richest nation on the continent not be able to prepare the compensation?

Arthur was deeply shocked, having thought that the country had plenty of money.

Then, Silver, an excellent merchant among the beastmen, whispered to him.

"Lord Arthur, if you don't have it, you have to get it from somewhere else."

Arthur, who had no one else to turn to for such matters, decided to take Silver's proposal.

He then set his sights on the rich resources of the underground empire of Jilva, where the dragonmen lived.

On the other hand, Freddy, the son of the Count of Copple, who came to bring Lily and Adam back from the western fort, was trying to achieve his goal with the help of the baron's daughter, Poppy.

Lily, caught and persuaded by Poppy and Freddy, could not convey her opinion that "I don't want to go back. I can't go back."

As she was cornered more and more, those around her became furious at the behavior of Freddy and Poppy.

Seeing this, Lily was deeply troubled and distressed—?!
