Kenneth

So. Then. Because of that.

Wilt and Weiss are sworn enemies.
They've been at odds for generations, a feud so famous that every citizen of the Ehar Empire knows about it.
They bicker at every opportunity, and their duels were a complete mess.
So, it was only natural that Kenneth and I were also famous rivals since our academy days.

Then, eventually, something happened.
During a territorial war, where the heads of each family were drinking, the knights of the Wilt and Weiss families fought and ended up blowing up the Emperor's gold mine.

…They dared to, the Emperor's personal gold mine.
Naturally, the Emperor was furious, and as revenge(?), he decided to sever the long-standing feud between the two families by arranging a marriage.

That was the marriage between me and Kenneth, who were caught up in the fight between our fathers and families.

⋮

At the wedding, I received a new title and territory.
The joint title of Count of Roynel and a very small territory near the capital.
In front of the Emperor and the nobles, I forced a handshake and, with a forced smile, vowed.
“We will live happily.”

It's not even funny. We know each other too well.
