3rd person POV

“If you know the Countess…”

‘Yes’ Number 1 was about to say, when Graham bent down and whispered something into her ear.

That was all it took for Number One’s complexion to clearly change.

Graham bowed again.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please have a safe journey home.” (Graham)

“Okay, okay!” (Yes Trio 1)

And the ‘Yes’ Trio left in a hurry.

1st Person POV (Ekaterina)

Mr. Graham, you’re too good… My butler can do it like magic.

The ‘Yes’ Trio, you may have lost something important due to short-term greed.

That is the value of property in the marriage hunting industry.

This is a magic academy where aristocratic boys and girls with magic power that meets the standards gather from all over the empire.

This is also the front line of the marriage hunting market.

It is essential to learn how to control the magic power for those who are 15 to 18 years old. That is certainly the main reason for the existence of the magic academy.

However, in this world, this age group is also the perfect age for marriage.

Noblemen marry for the sake of the family, but if they could get a better match at the school than the one their parents had arranged for them, and even their parents would approve. I also want to fall in love here and marry someone I like and who likes me. That’s what most of the students want. I’m gradually coming to understand that fact.

I guess it’s self-evident.

I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I’m not familiar with things like wanting to fall in love and youth. Because to me, love is a flag of doom!

Aside from me, isn’t the empire actually aiming for the students to find a marriage partner here? One of the reasons for the existence of the school is to maintain the quality and number of people with magic power by encouraging marriages between people with magic power. In addition to this, there are many other things that you can do to make your life easier. The commoners who have magic power are the ones who should be the targets of the school.

Flora is a perfect example. So, even if the prince sees her, he can’t say no to her because of her status. I think that’s the reason why the prince is so interested in her.

After realizing that, to me now the magic academy seems to be a grand venue for a blind date. An academy party set up by the state? Yes, it’s a school party. No, it is a national level honey trap.

The boys and girls don’t even care what the state actually wants.

At any rate, everyone has already entered the marriage hunting market, and they may have a crush on their type of partner, or they may fall in love at first sight like a meteorite, or they may cleverly hook up with someone who meets their requirements.

In a way, I think the person in question tends to have more stricter or higher requirements when they seek for a marriage partner. They want a man who is good-looking and has more money and status than their own family.

I’m not saying that they should aim for fortune or the other way around, but it would be nice if they could. Young people are filled with dreams, hopes, and recklessness.

So, about The ‘Yes’ Trio.

The boys were there when the carriage ride took place. It was bad enough that they exposed their greed, but if they were so desperate, their family’s financial situation must have been questionable.

The chances of them finding a suitable partner went down considerably. In fact, I’d say it was actually closer to zero.

I don’t know if there was even any hint of possibility before, though.
