Alicia, the only daughter of a Marquis family, has a fiancé.

Prince Julius, the Second Prince.

Then, a sudden annulment of engagement from the Prince. The reason, apparently, is his desire to marry his lover—a woman famous as a genius who skipped grades to enter the Royal University.

According to the Prince, "She possesses sufficient knowledge as a Princess Consort and will support me."

Viewing it as a joyous occasion, Alicia gladly accepts the annulment.

To prevent any possibility of a "reversal of the annulment" or "re-engagement," they even went so far as to formalize the agreement with a royal decree in writing.

A royal engagement should bring both honor and benefit, so why?!

The Second Prince, giddy with love, fails to realize that their engagement was an arrangement made by her grandfather.

The Second Prince, accompanied by his new fiancée, is granted an audience with His Majesty the King. There, a truth he never knew is revealed.

Julius, who is merely the son of a secondary consort.

He is an illegitimate child.

Naturally, he has no right to inherit the throne.

Moreover, the Second Prince’s mother came from a destitute Viscount family.

In truth, she was someone who could not normally become a secondary consort.

The Second Prince had lived his life without ever questioning anything.

All the truths are revealed.
