Romans & histoires Nobleman Ranking

I always thought admiring men only made them more reckless—especially in the royal capital, where men are inherently shameless, yet love domineering women (like Xia) and enjoy being humiliated by them. But Lan transcended such limitations of gender. Every year at the beginning of the year, the royal capital would release the rankings of the most prominent figures. Women were interested in the wealth rankings; men were interested in the merit rankings. Lan ranked seventh on the wealth list and first in merit. Yet my admiration for him had nothing to do with either. What I saw was the shining, concise name at the very top of the mage rankings.

The four people approached the ring. After landing on the ring, the four of them spoke in unison. “I challenge Anthony Oslo.” “Heia Nadler.” “Adonis Wisteria.” “Roman Howitz.” Four names were mentioned one after another. Everyone was more surprised. Heia Nadler, the number one on the pseudo holy being list, was the most outstanding talent of the younger generation of the green ox royal family. Being first on the list had proven Heia’s strength. Roman, Adonis, and Anthony were ranked second, third, and fourth respectively.

THE NOBLES who received such an invitation were all dressed up in their own style, following the theme that was indicated in the invitation. They were all high-ranking nobles who are well-known across high society and are regarded as some of the best nobles to ever enter society. They radiated such grandeur and grace that many lower-rank nobility looked up to them. In other words, they are what the majority of people perceive to be a professional. One of these nobles comes from a noble house famed for generating creative individuals, with a generation of their house producing singers and novelists alike, as well as controlling the empire's most prominent newspaper.

My Knights came to be busy and became more cautious extremely than before. They also make statements and deliver them to my butler every day so we can investigate everything if there’s an uncertain creature or scenario but thankfully, there wasn’t and I feel at ease for a little because of that. But even if there’s no suspicious scenario, we still need to be careful and attentive every time. Mostly since the news spread to our world wherein I became the rank 2 of the most wealthy businesswoman in our world. The 1st rank was filled by my mate, Sebastian Lyall Volkov and we know how influential they are in the business world.

I say watching him sweat as he constantly makes and breaks contact with my eyes. "Do you have a partner?" He asked as a smile greets my face. "Are you asking to be my partner to the coronation?" I watched his whole face turn red as he nods. "You look like a commoner." I said as his face distorts in shock. "Just because my dress looks simple doesn't mean I'm not a noble." I say to him as he look short of words. "Like, Did you dare think a noble is important as I am would go out with the likes of you?" I hissed in rage. What's up with this kingdom, do they not understand the heirachy of status.

“I’ve already told you I don’t need to be there to manage it. Lindgren Corp. has grown too large to be considered centered there anymore. And if necessary, I can send Jasper to represent me in Sweden. Though he’s close to me, he’ll be fine entering the country.” “How can that be? You brought Sophie and Marlow here to avoid capture, and Jasper is even closer to you.” “Niklas’s name carries weight. While he works for me, Niklas is still part of a respected family. He’s the third son, so he doesn’t have an official title, but his elder brother is a knight—a rank three or four levels below mine.” Gia massaged her temples, trying to untangle the complexities of titles and ranks in her mind. She k

"I've found a new prospect. You must win him over." "Is he as powerful as Hudson?" Judith laughed. "Be realistic. Hudson is a falling star. This man is a Noble from the Ferelden High Court. Marrying him gives you status even the Nixons must respect. Stick with Hudson and you’ll be a beggar." Scarlett’s eyes sparkled. A Ferelden noble? The Nixon empire was built in Ferelden. If her suitor was of that stature, the Nixons would have to bow to her. Her confidence returned as she prepared to meet her new 'match' at the banquet.

"Didn't they say she's just a businesswoman?" I almost smiled. Just. A. Businesswoman. They'd forgotten the years when I climbed onto podium after podium at shooting competitions. Long before I became Lady Ashbourne. Let them underestimate me. The lower their expectations, the more satisfying their expressions would be later. "Current standings." The main screen changed. The entire arena fell silent. Every pair of eyes turned toward the giant scoreboard displaying the rankings. 1. Commander Cyran Ardent 2. Crown Prince Adrian 3. Lord Vaeldric Ashbourne

I thought of the selection notice I had found tucked into the trash behind the tax collection house six days ago, smoothed it out and read it by lamplight so many times I had memorized it without intending to. His Imperial Majesty announces the Third Formal Selection of Imperial Companions from noble families across the continent. Eligible candidates: daughters of noble rank Second Level or above. Age requirement— I had stopped reading there. Second Level or above. My family had no rank. My family had a broom.

Loud murmurings can be heard amongst the Nobles as thirty points is a huge point and enough to push the winners high up the rankings board. Ranks amongst Nobles play a huge role in determining how a Noble will be respected and the type of job he or she will get after Crestbane, amongst other benefits that nobody talks about. The instructor is still saying something in the background, but Jay leans toward me to whisper, “I will get an orb out of the forest for you in less than a minute in exchange for that kiss I almost got back there.” “The only thing you almost got was busted dragon eggs.” He throws his head back to laugh heartily. I hate that his laughter is so contagious because keeping a
