The picnic spot was a countryside town named Terpene. The atmosphere there was bright and near the shore making it the perfect picnic spot. Enisha was dressed in a light summer dress with Rodgo and the twins wearing shirts without any fancy decorations.
"Brother! Dad!", Enisha said as she was playing in shallow water, and it was enough to make their hearts swell with love.
Enisha made her way toward Hellard.
"Hellard, look!!!", Enisha showed him the fish she just caught with excitement.
"Oh!! Want me to roll up in some sushi!", he proudly claimed that when he was at war, his knife skills improved a lot.
Enisha with a sulked face freed the fish back into the water. Before Hellard could analyze what just happened here he received a punch from Rosiel straight in his stomach.
"How can you say something like this to our little sister?!"
Rosiel approached Enisha and said in her ear.
"If Hellard says any nonsense again hit him hard in the stomach."
Hellard after hearing this can do nothing but regret his words from a moment ago.
After returning to the imperial palace, what waited for them was a pile of documents and tons of meetings to attend, of course, Enisha was having fun.

"I want to go to the academy!"
"No! Not at all!!", Hellard cried.
"There's no need to attend the academy, Enisha."
You send Cahil to the academy without my permission, and now you want to stop me from taking education!", Enisha was irritated.
Their horrified faces were a must to see.
And that's how Enisha left for Henore Academy which was in the east.
Enisha and Judith always shared letters and gifts as the academy was close to Elhark.
Time flies, and soon it was Enisha's 18th birthday.
(Judith and Hellard's wedding was scheduled after Enisha's coming-of-age ceremony according to the novel)
...*****...
[3 years later]
After Enisha's 18th birthday celebration, the palace became busy in preparation for the royal wedding.
Hellard was depressed! 😂
[Hellard's pov]
Just thinking about marrying that crazy woman is making me sick!
It's all because of Rosiel! I just made a little fun of him after Arcus's left-wing mage almost sent him to hell and he arranged a marriage for me as revenge. After all, he is after the dowry.
The door creaked open and Enisha entered the chamber and Hellard's mood got better after seeing Pruney.
"You still thinking about the wedding!?", Enisha asked as she sat on the corner of the bed.
"What? No, not at all! Me worrying about something as small as marriage!?", he shrugged.
"Listen, Brother! Judith's not that bad and you both have so much in common. I don't think anyone will be more suitable for you than her."
"Hmm~ Ok, fine!", he was not pleased by the explanation.
"Oh! I forgot the seamster has come to take measurements for the wedding uniform."
"I am coming! You go first!", Hellard smiled with thumbs up.
As soon as Enisha left the room, Hellard's mood changed as if the wind washed over his face.
No matter what you say Enisha I can never like that woman even if we have much in common.
He stared at himself standing in the mirror with a cold face.
...*****...
[At the Elhark Palace]
[Judith's pov]
I can't believe this day finally came. I will be married in a week and yet Benjamin is still trying to kill me in any possible way. On top of that, the royal son(Judith's nephew) is pissing me too much these days but I am controlling myself as I don't want any extra trouble.
"Oh, Aunt! What are you thinking so deeply? About the crown prince!?", the royal son asked playfully and Judith lost it.
She grabbed him by the shoulder hard enough to make him cry in pain.
"Piss off or you will attend the wedding with one arm broken!!"
The royal son shivered in fear and ran with his tail between his legs. Judith sighed in anger.
What does that bastard think that if he is the royal son he can do whatever he desires!?
Soon it was the day of the wedding. Both regions were celebrating the union of the two most powerful nations on the continent except the bride and groom.
