Banquet day:
While we were in the carriage heading to the imperial palace, Raymond said: “The little crow will be the most beautiful of those present.” My father nodded and said: “Yes, my daughter is one of the most beautiful women, just like her mother" and mother added : "Oh dear, you are still the most handsome in my eyes." She touched his cheek with her palm. My father held her hand and kissed it.
My brother Raymond whispered: “They forgot that they were praising you're beauty and now they are all lovey dovey infront of us "
"You two flirt when we get home. not in front of us. That's disgusting," Raymond said with a disgusted look on his face. My mother answered him: "You will become like us one day, and don't say that your mother didn't tell you."Ray said
I couldn't resist anymore and burst out laughing until the whole carriage was filled with the sound of our laughter.
While we haven't reached the royal palace yet, I'll tell you a little about my brother Ray.
Raymond is my big brother and also the wizard of the duchy tower but no one knows about him except us of course because he works under the name of the white wolf so he doesn't care about romantic matters and only devotes himself to magic and his studies and he calls me crow it's a bit embarrassing but he calls me that because when I was young I was obsessed with shiny things so I used to borrow them and hide them (yes yes I mean steal them) in my room because of the influence of poverty in my previous life]
Finally we arrived at the palace When we reached the front door of the hall, it was opened for us and the door guard said in a loud voice: “Duke Quinn and his family are entering.” All the eyes of the attendees turned to us. I felt very nervous from their looks. My mother approached me and said: “Don’t be so nervous, we are by your side.” Just hearing her words made me feel reassured .

ML pov : Before the heroine and her family arrive
I was surrounded by many young ladies Their voices are very annoying. One of the ladies approached me and grabbed my arm and said, “Aren’t you looking for a woman to please you?” This is called harassment in public. I gritted my teeth in annoyance and was going to curse her until my elder brother, heir to Duke Fustar, came forward.
"Ladies, I apologize, but I'll borrow my younger brother for a moment."
One of the ladies said: “Oh my God, how can we refuse sir Darius’s request? "
Then they left. When I tried to speak I felt someone hit me on the back with a handheld fan I think It was my little sister Roxana.
C:"Roxy why did you hit me with that damn handheld fan"
R:" Because I wanted to.... Are you kidding me? I did it because I know you would have gotten into trouble if you opened that damn mouth and cursed that lady. And more importantly, shouldn't you find a life partner or are you going to marry your sword?"
D:"What Roxy said is true. Build your life, forget about fights and battles. "
C:" While I haven't found her yet, don't talk to me about marriage and a life partner, as you know, the sword is my wife and the horse is my son. "
R:"found who exactly??"
As I opened my mouth I heard the hall doorkeeper say, “Duke Quinn and his family are entering.” I turned to see my old enemy Gwendoline for a moment. She looked very different from the normal Gwendoline I knew. Wait a minute, that move she made when she walked in through the door, I mean, she's playing with a lock of hair with her finger. She kind of reminds me of Mira. Wait, does this mean that Mira from my previous life has reincarnated with me here???
"I found it!!! I just hope I'm right," I said excitedly.
Darius and Roxana whispered behind me: "Look, Roxie, he's talking to himself again. Has he finally lost his mind?"
"I think so, but look at his face, he's smiling."
"A smile of happiness as if he found something missing in his life...and since we are siblings, we must support him"
"I agree with you, brother.
