Chapter 56: The ‘Perfect’ Arrangement
Aurora looked at these class placements.
They could pick some of their classes, but many others were mandatory. Especially since they were only the first year students, they almost couldn’t pick any other classes because of the mandatory class they have to attend.
Aurora herself would add a class to herself, named swordsmanship.
Most of the girls would not learn this, so it was an additional class they could take in the morning. The class for the girls and boys were separated since it was a physical class.
Aurora looked at her schedule and fell into silence.
It didn’t seem to be any better than her class when she was in her father’s residence, especially because she was tasked to take a few more classes.
Her schedule is really full.
*sigh*
’So be it.’
Aurora looked away from the bulletin and then made her way to look around the academy. She was going to stay here for the next six years, so it would be better for her to familiarize herself with the road.
Along the way, there were many other noble children who come to greet Aurora.
As the duke’s daughter, Aurora’s status is definitely the highest among all the noble girls. Coupled with the fact that she was also the crown prince’s fiancée, the other noble girls wanted to curry favor with her.
Of course, there were also some noble girls who disliked her.
But they would not dare to disrespect her on the surface because of the difference in status. Any sign of impoliteness for those who were of higher status could make them suffer a lot.
It was the rule in this kingdom.
After walking for some time, Aurora saw Crown Prince Edward who was talking with three other boys. From the way it looked like, they have good relationship with each other. They should have interacted before they came here.
Looking at the three boys, Aurora thought about their identity.
One of them has a relatively longer brown hair but it was still considered short and suitable for boys. He was also wearing thick glasses and carried a bunch of books beside him.
From his appearance alone, Aurora guessed that he should be Louis, the prime minister’s son. The prime minister was also the assistant of the king and also the one who handled many other matters related to the kingdom.
He himself was also a noble, but his work was mainly in the palace.
His son, Louis, was also Crown Prince Edward’s study companion and would be the one who helped the crown prince to manage the kingdom in the future.
Looking at the man’s tired face, Aurora could guess that he should be tired with helping Crown Prince Edward in his study. After all, if the crown prince himself was not very capable, then he needed someone who was capable enough around him to help him pave the way up.
The Queen had prepared Louis to help with the papers.
And then Aurora would help with the others.
What a perfect arrangement.
Aurora moved her gaze to the other two boys. One of them was wearing training clothes with a sword hanging on the side. He had messy blond hair and also tall body. From the way he looked like, he should be the famous second son of Marquis Davis, Benny.
From what Aurora had been taught before, most of the inheritance of the nobility would be passed down to the first son. Because of this, the second son and below had to work by themselves if they wanted any nobility title and so on.
There were a few paths but the most common was through being a knight and achieved enough merit to be granted with nobility.
Even if this nobility was nothing more than a title without any real benefit nor the so called territory, but it was still something better than nothing at all. Or if their parents were rich enough, they could actually buy some title for their other children.
The titles would definitely be lower, but they didn’t have to work hard.
But this practice was not very common.
After all, the price for any nobility title was extremely expensive and it was not easy to get for many nobles.
Benny Davis was one of the few famous second son in the Capital City of the Yellow Kingdom.
The main reason was because his talent in swordsmanship was really high. His skills had far surpassed many people who were older than him and within a few years, it was expected that he would be knighted.
This delighted Marquis Davis greatly.
If Benny was really talented, he would be able to be conferred nobility much easier. And it was also because of this talent of his that he was brought to Crown Prince Edward’s side as his knight.
Of course, the official position had to wait until Benny was knighted.
But for now, the children were interacting closely with each other.
As for the last boy.
He was Leon Sun, the second son of Duke Sun. His appearance was very similar to Duke Sun with his bright blond hair and sharp appearance. Since he was the second son, he would not inherit his father’s title, but he had been given another lower nobility title.
As for how it was obtained, Duke Sun had a lot of connections.
It could be said that Queen Ella spared a lot of effort to pull everyone to gather around Crown Prince Edward. She wanted to pave way for her son and the most influential dukes were all pulled to her side through their children.
Or it could also be the king’s move.
After all, Aurora didn’t know who made the arrangement.
Pushing all thoughts to the back, Aurora stepped forward and then called out, "Your Highness."
Crown Prince Edward saw Aurora and smiled brightly. "Aurora, you’re here. Come and meet with my friends. This is Louis, Leon, and Benny."
Aurora looked at these three people and then greeted them all one by one.
