On the first day of arriving in Ehrmont for a national marriage, what greeted Adel was not Emperor Karl, but his lover's concubine. Adel was already stunned to hear the concubine say, “I'm here to tell you about His Majesty's tastes,” but to make matters worse, the Emperor, whom she only met on the day of the wedding, not only arrived late but also declared that he would not be spending the first night with her and went off to his lover's palace. An eye for an eye, a mistress for a mistress. To Adel's surprise, someone applied for the advisor position she announced. It was none other than Lionel Balder, the head of the Imperial Guard and of the Balder family.
