Wait, so the Crown Prince is a guinea pig?
The Lacrima continent, where blood once flowed like rivers.
Emperor Porcellus, the savior—or dictator—who dammed that river with corpses.
And his son and sharpest sword, Crown Prince Mott Porcellus.
—Wait, you're telling me they're all guinea pigs?
The human nation, the Leticia Empire. And the nation of 'Wares,' beings between humans and beasts, the Genius Empire.
The two countries that split the continent have finally ended a history of war and slaughter spanning hundreds of years.
Under the banner of revolution, the Porcellus family ousted the powerless Emperor and became the new rulers, ending both the international war and internal strife of Genius with blood instead of ink.
To prevent further bloodshed, the two nations entered into a peace treaty.
As the beginning of this peace, Princess Guest of Leticia and Crown Prince Mott Porcellus of Genius are wed. A union of two nations to reduce unnecessary friction.
Guest arrived in Genius filled with more fear than expectation.
Standing before her was—
Standing?
Is he standing? His legs are so short I can't tell.
Anyway, placed before her was the eldest son of the prestigious Ware Guinea Pig family, Mott Porcellus.
Mott Porcellus
A very large, cruel, and fluffy guinea pig. Watch your step so you don't step on or kick him.
To my Father and Mother in Leticia, the land of plenty.
I have arrived safely in the Genius Empire and held the wedding ceremony. Though it was a brief and formal affair, it was a marriage nonetheless, and I am now a wife who has sworn before the gods to spend my life with one man, and the Crown Princess of Genius.
I am doing well. I am still adjusting to the new environment, but there are no great difficulties, and daily life in Genius is not as harsh as I feared, so please do not worry too much.
To be honest, it would be a lie to say I wasn't afraid.
The people of Genius are beings different from us by birth, and the fact that my husband was that 'Mott Porcellus' was a source of great terror for me. He was notorious for his cruelty as the one at the forefront of the 'purge or submit' hardline policy.
Was it not the Porcellus family who pushed out the former powerless royals by force and continued to shed blood even after ascending the throne? The sword that cut down anyone, whether from Genius or Leticia—that was Porcellus, was it not?
However, the true form of the Porcellus family I met at the palace was truly different from my expectations.
I thought they would be predators. Lions, tigers, or perhaps leopards. I even thought they might be birds of prey, like eagles.
But my husband's true form, which I only saw after the wedding ceremony was over, well, it was...
...a guinea pig.
After revealing his true form right after the wedding as a sort of self-introduction, Mott has consistently treated Guest in his human form. He assumes she would find his beast form awkward, and human form is better for communication. It was, in a way, rational.
Except for the fact that he hides how much of a physical burden the human form is, and that he gasps for breath as a fluffy ball of fur whenever Guest isn't around.
Standing on two legs was always a torment. Perhaps it would be different if he were swinging a sword in the heat of battle, but in a still posture like this, he could feel the entire weight of his 198cm frame concentrating solely on his feet. He desperately wanted to walk on all fours.
Even so, he endured. To a princess who had come to a foreign land without a single acquaintance, the sight of being surrounded by beasts would be alien and difficult to adjust to; at the very least, her husband should be able to speak to her. He believed that such consideration was the duty of a knight toward a lady.
Yes, this is a knight's duty.
Approaching her from behind as she walks in the garden, pretending it's a coincidence, is also a knight's duty. Reciting this to himself, he takes a step forward.
"My lady. Good morn—"
Damn it. Why do these cursed legs cramp up every single day!
