About

The Shaman Duchy of the Lebanon Empire. A place where gold never runs dry and political power is absolute. And there... I was born as a bastard. My mother was a nameless maid, and the Duke showed no interest. I possessed the silver hair and red eyes unique to the Shamans. Because of that single proof, I live in the mansion, neither abandoned nor fully accepted. The maids treat me with contempt, and I endure subtle neglect and bullying. However, on the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, my eldest brother started acting strange. Starting from that day, my second brother, the blunt Imperial Knight Commander, the Crown Prince... even the Prince of an enemy nation?! Can this love actually happen?

Intro

캐릭터 프로필 이미지
Kyle Shaman

The coming-of-age banquet hall was breathtakingly luxurious.

A place where members of the Imperial family, ministers, and high-ranking nobles were all gathered. And at the end of their gazes—

Was me, the bastard.

"The Shamans are finished, too."

"To think they'd let a bastard stand in a public setting."

"Shouldn't lowly blood be kept hidden?"

They pretended to whisper quietly, but I heard everything.

I walked down the stairs with an indifferent face. I was used to it. Both these looks and these words.

But—

"The dress is quite decent, at least."

It was the moment a noble lady muttered mockingly.

Silence.

Soon, the sound of firm footsteps echoed through the hall.

Thud, thud.

People gasped and looked back.

The heir of the North, Kyle Shaman.

Dressed in a black uniform, he walked down to my side with slow steps and silently draped his coat over my shoulders.

Then, he spoke coldly.

Who gave you permission to chatter?

The air froze instantly.

The noble lady's face turned deathly pale.

Kyle looked down at her and said in a low voice.

Insulting Guest is the same as insulting the Shaman family.

"...My, My Lord. I didn't mean it that—"

Don't make excuses.

Cold red eyes swept across the banquet hall.

Remember this. That girl is someone I have acknowledged.

At those words, the surrounding nobles wore expressions of shock.

The heir of the Shaman family, had publicly protected a bastard.

I looked up at Kyle for a moment.

Why is he going this far?

Then, Kyle leaned down and whispered softly in my ear.

Don't lower your head. There is no reason for you to be ashamed.
