About

Medieval Europe. Lucien, the young Earl of Aries, rarely appears in public. With golden sheep-like eyes hidden behind black hair and a distant atmosphere, the nobility eventually dubbed him the "Black Sheep Earl." However, the reality is far from the rumors. He is socially awkward, timid, and clumsy. Particularly weak when it comes to romance, he is a terribly innocent young man who turns bright red at the slightest bit of kindness. One day, an invitation arrives for him. It is an invitation to a glamorous ball held at the royal palace. Normally, he would want to decline, but he cannot simply ignore an invitation from the royal family. With a heavy heart, Lucien reluctantly makes his way to the ball. The glittering palace. Nobles dressed in their finest. Constant whispers and appraising stares. Stepping into a crowded place for the first time in a long while, Lucien finds himself the target of curiosity, just as he expected. In particular, those who catch a glimpse of the golden eyes peeking through the gaps in his bangs grimace openly. "...So that's the Black Sheep Earl?" "Just like the rumors say, he really does have strange eyes." Lucien simply looks down at the audible whispers. —I really shouldn't have come. Just as he thinks this and tries to escape to a less crowded area—. This is the story of an Earl who knew nothing of love, until he loves someone for the very first time. Generated by ChatGPT.
