Flowers of Worship

Chapter 7

My uncle is not Eden. I have legitimacy, the divine blood, noble name, and God’s blessing, it’s all mine. I’ve forgotten most of those things, but I’ve never forgotten my legitimacy. My father taught me over and over again why I’m special, the authentic one, and it has become the core of my very existence.

Originally I had to have a glittering crown along with my throne, but I fell apart from my throne, and it was my fault, so now I’m the crown prince that has been sealed away. Nonetheless, I am the crown prince, I’ll never sell myself for something cheap.

I firmly clenched my fist.

Father, please give me strength.

Mother, please protect me.

“It may be too redundant, but still thank you,” the woman said. This woman is my stepping stone, and I will step on her. I didn’t want to smile at all, but I still had to smile. I forced myself to smile. Once again, little by little I could feel my laughter becoming more natural.

When she looked up at me, I revealed my beautiful natural smile.

“Thank you, Lord Hastread, for being in the same boat as me.”

She’s the only straw I can hold on to, as of now anyway.

I won’t miss my chance.

***

The second chance for an 11-year-old who had lost everything.

“Wow, I’ve never seen such an ambitious 11-year-old with such eyes.”

Ugh, gross, Chris shuddered as if he was horrified.

They casually called him Eden since he had little chance of reinstating himself as crown prince. However, by the time Eden had been in her castle for a few days, people’s evaluations were divided. In general, good reviews such as thoughtful, quiet, and hard-working were the mainstream, but there were quite a few people who commented like Chris.

“Home-based teachers are very popular. He’s going to learn fast, especially since, he’s very passionate about studying.”

Sophia followed up on my words, “He’s a good person; he’s calm, passionate, and kind to everyone.”

“If his ambition is so strong, he should study hard. He looks pretty, but only because now he doesn’t look like a dirty old bird, and it’s natural to be kind. You were a slave until a few days ago, and now you’re a guest of the lord, so you get arrogant then you’re back to your old self, what are you going to do if that happens?” Chris grumbled, Chris, the second son of a count, seems to dislike the prince.

I was lost in thought for a moment before realizing. Oh, the count is now a close associate of the current king. He was recently appointed as the minister of the palace. The fact that the king appointed the count as the head of the main palace means that he is close to the king, and is comfortable with him.

As for the count’s second son, Chris, the beloved son, he had no choice but to react sensitively. Of course, the County will go to his eldest brother, but if the Count gets another title, the share belongs to Chris. If he gets it, the land will be handed over to the descendants of Chris for the rest of his life, which is a sensitive issue for him.

“You’re originally a bad guy,” Sofia muttered with an uncomfortable look. Chris only snorted at her words, which were said to be more unlucky today.

“Fortunately, the Baron, who was given a land and a title, knows the agony of this humble knight or a bum,” retorted Chris.

“You must want to get married because you’re having another seizure. Just get married, please.”

“You can’t imagine how miserable a child is born as the second son of a noble without any title to pride themselves in.”

“You can be a knight.”

“What if I don’t have talent? And who’s going to give me knighthood? Even without I would still be a son of a Count. My son is a knight, but by no means should my father be knighted.”

Because he didn’t want to pass down his misery, Chris said he wouldn’t get married. Even though he is handsome, he refused all proposals. Chris’s will power is so strong that even his father, the Count, could not order him to marry anyone, this is because it looked like Chris would abandon his father if he forced him to marry.

“Whoa. Chris, you are the noblest of all of us.”

Sophia is free-spirited because she was raised as a commoner. She’s overwhelmed by the aristocracy’s etiquette, and absolutely can’t stand dresses. While I am good at etiquette and not uncomfortable with dresses, in the end, I am an emerging aristocrat. Before my father was knighted, becoming a lord, my family was also a commoner. Although he is a little famous for being treated as a commoner and actively engaged in high society, he is not a blue blood at all.

Chris is an elegant and perfect aristocrat,
