Yawn

Charlotte's goes into the bathroom to get ready for who knows what might happen.

Charlotte wears a plain dress and walks downstairs.

Eh? What's the prince and king doing here, and most importantly why wasn't I alert of this? This family, really..

Charlotte turns to his majesty's,

"Blessings upon your majesty of Dianly and your majesty the prince of Dianly."

"Hohoho hello Charlotte!"

Eh, does this old man not know formalities or what.

"What brings you both here,"

Charlotte said with a soft smile.

"We're discussing about our children's wedding."

"Ah I see, are you setting up the prince and Emilia?"

"No, we're setting up you and the prince."

What.

I didn't agree to this.

Charlotte turns towards Emilia with tears in her eyes.

Damn it, she's crying. Agh.

"Your majesty, I do apologise as I think I'm not fit for the prince. Emilia over there is fun and joyful, plus she's pretty. Please consider her instead of me."

"Well, my son even wants to take you in so I'm not really sure."

Charlotte turns her gave towards the prince and gives him a glare, the prince took a step back while his eyes widen.

"Please do consider your majesty. I feel bad for my little sister!"

She lies.

"Alright, it's settled then. Emilia and the prince shall have an arranged marriage."

Charlotte turns towards Emilia while smiling. Emilia gives her a thumbs up.

Why must this always happen to me.

Charlotte leave the main room and back into her room to prepare for an outing again. Whilst grabbing some money to buy an actual sword.

After Charlotte got out of her estate she ran to the blacksmith.

Woah.

There were many varieties of swords, big, small, etc. There was also armour, bows and other weapons.

Charlotte goes to pick out a sword,

This one is just right for me it's exactly how I like it!

Charlotte pays for the sword and goes back to the training grounds.

Although, she wasn't the only one there.

Is she waiting for someone..?

"Hey matey!"

Is she talking to me?

"You!"

The woman points to Charlotte.

"Hey?"

"I saw you practicing the sword yesterday and I got to say you're pretty slick with it! Do you want to train with me! I'm a top tier swordsman aye!"

"Ah, alright."

An opportunity to increase my skills.

"My names Charlotte, and yours?"
