I Became the Fiancé of a Crazy Heroine

Chapter 11-1



Chapter 11-1

(T/L: Im sorry for previous mistakes, Where I overlooked some words such, He-to-She. Confusing you who is who. And in some places where Sion and Hannet short conversation takes place, from now, Ill add name in such places for more clarity.

Im going to re-edit. And there will no longer such mistake.)

During negotiations with Fred, Robbins did not give in unconditionally. He extended the engagement period by six months because he had received something in return.

Originally, he had intended to impose conditions even on Sions free action, but as Hannets disposition was similar to his, he let it slide to some extent.

Even if its certain, we cant proceed right away. We have to think about the reason for extending the engagement period.

The nobles considered engagement to be a promise and a symbol of trust between each other. When a strategic marriage is arranged, the two families are indirectly connected through their children.

This was a clear recognition of each others value and a willingness to ally and exchange regularly. In other words, it was such an important matter that they took time during the engagement period to thoroughly confirm each others families and children until the end.

It takes time for a child to be conceived. If it doesnt go well, it could take even longer.

Its not unusual. It seems like hes thinking deeply about something.

After that day, Yenid completely changed her evaluation of Zion. Although he was said to be an ordinary person, he seemed to have some outstanding qualities in his speech and behavior.

It could manifest at any moment, but if it went in the wrong direction, they would have to be nipped in the bud.

Lord Laird did a good job raising his children. Isnt his eldest son use a swordsman?

Hes said to be a rare talent. There are rumors that the royal knights are interested in him.

Nobles typically choose one of three methods to maintain and expand their power and influence: Becoming palace officials. Establishing a business using their titles and wealth, or Creating a knightly order to contribute to the Alain Kingdom.

Nobles with privileges mainly became palace officials and accumulated wealth by monopolizing business opportunities. Therefore, it was difficult for other nobles to pioneer their own businesses or gain recognition by leading knightly orders, as opportunities were scarce.

If he becomes a Royal knight of the order, he could also establish a connection with the royal family.

If Its someone with Marquis title, both parties could be satisfied.

If you are related to the royal family, you could become the kings son-in-law. Even if the throne is succeeded by another royal family, you wont suffer any losses.

The current king had two princes and one princess.

Only one of them would become the heir to the throne, which would change the balance of power once again.

Robbins had to make a choice to prosper his family.

As a noble, you could potentially align with one of the princes. However, a noble family should aim for the princess only.

Could Marquis Laird achieve that?

It wont be easy. There are other nobles as well.

Duke Tyrone is pushing his daughters towards that direction, right?

Yes, he is. If we lose to Duke Tyrone, both of us will suffer.

Duke Tyrone was a powerful nobleman and a rival of Duke Adelaira in the Alain Kingdom.

There were only two Duke titles in the Alain Kingdom, so the two Dukes could not get closer and were constantly seeking to outdo each other and expand their power.

Former kings knew this, which is why they implicitly prohibited dukes from marrying into royal families.

Does that mean the king allows a strategic marriage with a Duke?

Usually not. If the balance is disturbed, not only us but also the king will suffer. Despite knowing that, Tyrone is trying to enter into a strategic marriage.

Could it be because there is some belief?

Thats possible. Or maybe not.

While keeping an eye on the movements of Duke Tyrone, Robbins did not intervene directly.

As a matter of rules, a duke could not be connected to the direct royal family no matter what.

There was no need to react sensitively, and Adelaira, the Duke, still adhered to his old ways.

Somebody who can be connected to the direct royal family, It must come from our side of the family.

So, Thats why we have a Marquis. Id be a little upset if it is someone else wins in the end, instead of Marquis Laird .

Robbins was dragging all the families that could potentially enter into a strategic marriage with the direct royal family under his control.

Marquis Laird was one of them, and negotiations with him and several other earls had already been concluded.

Of course, Duke Tyrone was using a similar strategy, so it was necessary to manage them periodically to prevent the families from being swayed.

If the engagement is broken off, is it completely over with Marquis Laird?

Probably. Tyrone will gain one more ally.

You could have treated Marquis Laird like other families.

No. That cant be done. He is the eldest son is rare talent, and the second son is a palace administrator. Its too much of a waste to treat them like other families.

For Robbins, the Marquis Laird was a means to connect with the direct royal family. His second son was already performing administrative duties in the palace, and his eldest son was destined to join the royal knights at some point.

Thats why he was trying to hold onto the Marquis Laird while leading the marriage with Hanette.

Duke Tyrone must have also considered this, right?

Id rather take him with me than give him to Tyrone. This way, Hanette can also be married.

Any family is bound to have one or two talented children. Each family tries to marry their children to noble families with similar ranks.

Higher ranks could be exploited, while lower ranks would not cause any disturbances in the castle.

Thats why Robbins negotiated with Fred and tied Sion and Hanette together.

I understand what you mean, but it seems a bit early for them to get married. How about we wait a bit longer?

Hmm Why dont we think about it again after checking? I have no intention of rushing the marriage either.

I see. Ill check it myself.

Yenid also hoped for their marriage, but she didnt want to interfere with their decision. It was better to get married with affection rather than anxiety.

The engagement period was not set for three months for no reason.

Ill start with Hanette first
