Arrived at the academy.

As I was having a harmonious time with my new family,

Emma was sitting on the room of her flying ship cursing me,

"I don't believe that bastard would annul the engagement with me. "

"He must be playing some kind of game to make me submit to him "

"But I am smarter then him, I will never bow down, I will even make sure you kneel before my next time "

Even though she was cursing, her heart was still anxious remembering the scene when Archie was going to hit her,

She was feeling frustrated, anxious and worried at the same time,

The emotions were making her out of control,

She have never felt like this, even treated like that before.

*Knock-knock* "Princess, his royal highness wants to talk to you. "

Emma's eye lit up when she heard this,

"Enter " She said.

She was the most beloved of her father and also the most prominent successor of the crown,

She has support of Everheart and Bourbon families,

While her two big brothers only have the support of other two families each making her most probable next queen.

A guard entered the room with a crystal ball embedded in wooden frame,

After placing the ball on the table near the bed, he bowed and left.

Emma channeled her mana into the ball and soon a figure of an old man with long white beard and hair, wearing a crown appeared in the crystal ball,

Emma bowed and said like kid: "Father, you have to avenge me... Archie insulted the royal family "

King Harold Tudor looked sighed as he looked at her daughter,

"I am here as a king not your father "

Emma quickly kneeled down on her one knee,

"The princess greets the king "

Harold said: "You have dishonored the royal family by trying to slap the heir of the Everheart family" 

"Now they are asking for explanation and punishment for you "

Emma's eyes widened with surprise as she heard this,

"How can they do this to me, aren't I their future daughter in law "

Harold said: "They have annulled the marriage and are even pressuring us to give compensation "

Emma asked in confused tone: "They annulled the marriage, why do we have to pay the compensation. "

Harold said: "It's because we didn't punish you when you poured wine on Archie's head "

"They are using this as a ground to get the compensation "

Emma said: "But Archie didn't mind that, he even apologized and admitted that he irritated me"

Harold sighed and said: "Foolish girl, you didn't understand what you had in time "

Emma now felt anger rising from her heart,

"If this is what they want then I will take my revenge too "

"I will punish them when I take over the throne "

Harold said: "You are not eligible for the throne now"

Emma eyes now widened with shock as she said in trembling voice,

"What do you mean? Even if I don't have the support of the Everheart family, I still have the support of Bourbon family "

Harold said: "Naive... The Everheart and the Bourbon families are one. "

"Diana Everheart can be considered real leader of the bourbon family. "

"The current leader is her younger brother, and she is the favorite of some elders"

"So she has more power in the bourbon family than the leader of bourbon family "

Emma was now stunned in her place like a statue,

"All of this just because I poured a little wine on him "

Harold said: "You were going to destroy the Everheart family when Archie was about to hit you, he didn't even touch you "

"How do you think they would have felt when you poured the wine on their heir "

Harold's eyes also softened a little seeing her daughter miserable state,

"You can attend to academy and after that the only option left for you is political marriage "

With this said, Harold ended the connection and the crystal ball dimmed.

Emma was now in shambles and was remembering all of the things she had done to Archie,

But was still in denial that Archie would break up the engagement,

"I am sure he will come asking for forgiveness, I will not forgive him then "

"Next time, I will annul the marriage when I take over the throne "

As the flying ship getting close to the royal palace,

The news of nobles withdrawing their support one by one reached Emma,

By the time, the last noble family withdrew, Emma's brain was in chaos,

Her hairs were messy, her eyes have lost their glow and her whole personality looed gloomy,

She was the future queen of the kingdom just an hour ago and now, she lost everything.

Even the freedom of marrying by her choice.

The competition for the throne is always like that,

The losers lose all of their rights, it doesn't matter if you are a male or female,

You can't even choose the girl or boy for marriage; it's all decided by the king or queen to strengthen the royal family. 

But you can avert this if you still have heavy support of around 40% of nobles,

But Emma lost all of her support, so she has to do everything according to the rules now.

One the other hand,

After dinner, I was sitting with my parents and sister.

I said: "Father, Mother, I don't want to go to the academy. "

Both of them looked at each other with a worried expression,

My father said: "Son, we can agree to any of your request, but this one is a bit difficult. "

My mother said: "We are in truce with the royal family now, and they can do anything to you when we are not around. "

"So, the safest place for you now is academy when we are not around "

I sighed and said: "I understand this, but I just don't want to see Emma again "

My mother said: "You have to stay strong, but if you decide to engage with her again, just tell us "

I said: "That won't happen. I will choose to marry a maid rather than her "

A satisfied smile appeared the faces of my parents,

My mother said: "You still have a week before you go to the academy "

"So enjoy the time you have in home "

It was already midnight by now, so we all went to our room to get some sleep,

"System" I called out the system as I entered my room,

*Ding* "Host rewarded with +200 HP and MP "

I slept after that.

The next day, my parents left in the morning,

I headed to the training room,

"Let's train as much as possible for the encounter of the hero "

So, I trained rigorously for the whole week,

Host- Archie Everheart

A smile appeared on my face as I saw my swordsmanship and magic on the status screen,

Mary said: "Why are you smiling? "

I was sitting in the living room with Mary with our luggage was being carried out by servants.

I said: "Nothing, I am just excited about going to the academy "

Mary said: "Says the guy who doesn't want to go to the academy "

I just smiled and soon we both walked out of the mansion,

We boarded the luxurious flying ship with the guards.

I asked Mary: "How long would it take for us to reach the academy "

Mary thought for a second and said,

"It should take about six to eight hours "

The ship was like a flying house and there as a training room too, so I didn't think too much,

I entered the training room and started training.

We reached the Maple city in the evening,

The Maple city was named after the Maple Leaf Academy and was built around it.

The city house around a million people, so it's a fairly large city.

The Academy is situated in the center of the city was surrounded by malls, making the city inaccessible except through the gates.

The guards were guarding the academy's walls and gates of the academy and from the looks of it, none guards were below the intermediate level.

Our flying ship directly entered the academy and landed at the academy's ship hanger.

Our ship was by no means small but the ship hanger of the academy was enormous.

Mary and I descended the stairs as Anna and Mary's maid already went ahead with the luggage, 

I said: "Let's rest today, Tomorrow is the entrance ceremony of the academy " 

Marry nodded and said: "Ok "

The academy teaches nobles and commoners altogether,

By there are always some things better for the nobles.

So, our rooms were in a large mansion,

But what surprised me was Mary's and my room were next to each other,

We nodded to each other and entered our rooms.
