Chapter 1
Wow! He's so handsome.
As expected of a Duke.
Like any other lady, I was also smitten by his appearance alone. A perfect shade of dark and blue.
My first and last love.
Alistair Fernando Edenbridge.
The top Duke of the Empire.
But…
How could I compare myself to other ladies here? It was the start of an unrequited love. Though I hated attending parties and banquets, I went ahead only to see him.
Have you heared? Duke Edenbridge has got engaged to the perfect Lady Reina Selborne of Marquees Selborne.
Of course. Why would you notice me?
The Oblia Empire was the most power nation in the world. It produced many Aura Knights. But the number of Aura Knights decreased day by day because slowly magic had started to disappear until only a few magic wielders were left. However, one day, Euphrasia Seraphina, the daughter of a fallen Count was discovered to have amazing magical capabilities. The Emperor quickly gave her a position in the magic tower. And as soon as she graduated, she started her research in magic.
Thanks to her impeccable efforts, magic wielders, which had slowly started to decline, grew rapidly. And the world praised her as a hero.
' But that was just a way to keep myself busy from my bleeding heart.'
