Duchess 12  When I say that the conversation was a bliss, it was really a bliss, believe me. It was like there was no conversation at all. More of like, there was an exchange of pleasantries and then he just agreed with me and then left.

Aside from that, he looked down upon me, like I was much more lower than him when I am the Duchess and he is a successful businessman.  Well, if we were back on Earth, a Duchess and a very successful businessman would be considered much of the same but, we are in the Kingdom of Sagareste right now, where nobility is much more important and looked up on than a successful

Duchess 14  The sun was up in the sky and most of the animals are now awake and are creating a symphony of their sounds outside of the manor. Some of the birds even flew inside my office as I conversed with the prospective new Chief of the Guillemore Village together with the current Chief. “I really do need to applaud your excellent eyes Chief, this candidate that you picked really is promising, and he was taught the necessary skills of leading a village— by you at that.” I said, praising the current Chief by the way of how he chose the next chief of the village.

DUCHESS 16 The Kingdom of Sagareste has a few of its laws different to those other kingdoms. aside from the fact that the Kingdom of Sagareste were not limiting to its citizens, they were also allowing its citizens to own their own piece of land— the citizens can own a land through inheritance or by buying it to the original owner, but if the land was already a property of the Royal Family, then it cannot be bought as it will be dedicated for the use of the general public. Each of the land owned has a corresponding title of the land or a certificate to the right of the land in which the owner owns or possesses. The said document also has a copy in the dukedom’s hall and all have a copy in the palace library of official documents— though it will be a long search if one were to go to the palace library of official documents.

DUCHESS 20 Why are there so many unusual things that are happening today? Did I do something? Did I offend some kind of deity or a god to deserve all of these things that are not in my schedule or on the usual things that are happening to me? But no matter, I will handle it and internalize it all after I settle the business with the Duke of Leviathan--- Duke Ruther. As I was doing a little narrative here, inside my head, he was busy telling stories while his stomach bellowed with laughter--- his shoulders shaking at the same time. “Oh I still remember that time when you would always hide behind your mother whenever I visit.
