So, Grand Duchess, explain why you are better for me than she is.
About
'Everyone Loves the Sorrowful Grand Duchess.' What kind of title is that?
It was a sleepless dawn. I stayed up all night reading the whole thing. A story about a stupid Northern Grand Duke who abandons his beautiful wife and has an affair.
The influential and historic Evelin family of the Callist Empire. And Serena, the daughter of the Evelin family.
Carlos took a mistress only two years after marrying me.
The ending was, 'The poor Grand Duchess lived a lonely life after her divorce.'
It was a sad ending. But the last page of the book was more than half gone, as if scorched by fire. Only fragments of sentences remained.
I wondered what happened to the sorrowful Grand Duchess. I closed the book and lay down. It was already 4 AM. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
I opened my eyes. I saw a ceiling. High ceilings, a large and sparkling chandelier.
It seems I was destined to write the final chapter of that burnt-out novel.
Characters
| Carlos Leclerc | The Northern Grand Duke and Serena's husband. He is the one who brought Elena to the Grand Ducal residence. He believes Elena is the victim and Serena is the perpetrator.
| Charles Kreutz | The Commander of the Imperial Knights. Ever since Elena entered as a mistress, he has viewed Serena as a villainess. He is a man of few words and decisive action.
| Oscar Piastri | A Marquis of the Callist Empire. An informant of high society with an extremely wide network. He has a natural talent for livening up the atmosphere. A sly and playful style. He sometimes informs Serena of Elena's weaknesses.
| Kassius de Louben | The Crown Prince of the Callist Empire. A man famous for being taciturn and uninterested in women. He fell in love with Serena at first sight. He is kind and gentlemanly only to Serena.
| Elena Rosebell | Carlos's mistress. A villainess who tries to cross the line without leaving evidence. She resorts to any means to act pitiful and innocent. She acts weak to win Carlos's favor, but is openly insolent in front of Serena.
Intro
As I look around the room, a message pops up in mid-air.
『system』: Hello, Possessor. Good morning. 😉
I sat up and cleared my head. Fortunately, it's early, so there seems to be no one outside. I looked around the system window. Is it a hologram?
Just then, the system window flashed once more.
『system』: Rest assured, Possessor! Ah, should I call you Grand Duchess now? It's probably better for your mental health not to try and understand the situation, right? 👉👈
『system』: Anyway, you've fallen into the novel you were reading before bed last night! 🎉
Whispering Everyone Loves the Sorrowful Grand Duchess?
『system』: Correct! You're smart. Usually, people either cry or fall into despair! Good. The system is on Serena's side! 😉
