Ivon, the capital of the Duchy of Noò, is a city with a long history, and has been a famous commercial capital since the Old Kingdom. For more than 500 years of the Old Kingdom's existence, Ibon was the capital, not only because of its unique geographical conditions, but also because the city once unearthed the prophecy stone that predicted that Ibon would eventually become the capital of the entire continent.

Although this prophecy has been treated as a joke by all the people on the continent after the old kingdom was divided into three principalities, only the people of the Duchy of Noo do not think so, and they even send soldiers to guard the prophecy stone day and night, so that no one else can destroy it or touch it with their hands.

Today, Miss Suzanne of the Principality of Noao accompanied Margaret, the Ice Princess of the Winter Kingdom, to the Prophecy Stone to visit this stone, which is considered a treasure by the people of the Principality of Noo.

Margaret had been sent back to Evon for two months, and she knew that she would probably stay in Evon for the rest of her life when she was sent back from the City of Honor—as part of a political marriage, she had been scheduled to marry Luthers, the future Duke of the Duchy of Neu, next winter, a year later.

There was not much reluctance, because she knew that her choice was to save her dearest brother Jack and add one more ally to her homeland - although she did not expect that she would be placed in the hands of Aldington, the Duke of the Duchy of No, but Aldington did not send troops to the Kingdom of Cose, which finally made her feel a little comforted.

Now Jack the Green Ghost has been politically imprisoned in the underground prison of Ebon, although it is said to be captive, but in fact it is more of a shelter. As long as Jack the Green Ghost can live in the underground prison for a year, he will be able to attend the wedding banquet at this time next year as the brother-in-law of Duke Luthers, Duke of Noio, and when that time comes, if he negotiates with the Republic of Marveil in this capacity, there will be a better chance of restoring Jack to freedom.

This was Margaret's own plan, after all, she had little hope for her other brother, Adam. The Kingdom of Cosey is facing enemies on both sides - resisting the invasion of the Eastern Oguna Empire and the Duchy of Mageni at the same time, and it has recently been heard that even the Republic of Maweil has sent mercenaries to attack some of the border castles, and the farthest troops have even fled to the vicinity of the Rhino Fortress. It was already the most important military fortress in the southern part of the Winter Country, but he didn't expect his home country to cause these chain reactions because of his brother Jack's actions, leading to the current war.

Because of this, she and Jack were able to obtain the protection of Ewen, which seemed safer than Adam, who got up in the palace of the Winter Kingdom. Adam must have been toiling day and night because of the war at home, right? Margaret couldn't help but worry about him.

At this time, Suzanne gently patted Margaret on the shoulder with her hand, and only then did she draw the attention of the other party who was deeply in thought.

"Today's mission is to visit the Stone of Prophecy in Eve, don't get distracted!" Suzanne smiled warmly and kindly, but after the public trial in the City of Honor, Margaret had already seen through that she was nothing more than a hypocrisy, all cordiality was only for the sake of politics, and of course her concern and friendliness were also fake.

"Okay Sister Suzanne, I won't get distracted anymore. Margaret tweaked her clothes with her hands, and she noticed that all the other civilians near the Prophecy Stone had already fixed their eyes on her.

On weekdays, the stone is open to civilians and tourists, but today all visitors are not paying attention to the Prophecy Stone, all of them are peeking at Magalet's beauty.

"That beauty's skin is so white, whiter than the milk we squeeze out at home!"

"Wow, look at her figure, if I met her before I got married, I would definitely not marry my current wife home!"

Although the civilians pointed at them from a distance, Margaret didn't pay much attention to it, because she was never a princess with a weak personality. On the contrary, Susanna, who was standing aside, took out a goose feather folding fan and kept fanning herself, so as not to let people see her dissatisfaction.

"What is this stone made of?" said Margaret, pointing to the Prophecy Stone, which was shaped like a goose egg and seemed to have nothing special other than the words on it.

"The material is the most common stone, and it is said that when it was first excavated, the king did not believe that the prophecy stone was natural, but suspected that the person who found the stone was cheating in order to attract the attention of the people," Suzanne told the guards to push away the onlookers and travelers, making more room for Margaret to look around the prophecy stone," So the king killed the man who found the stone, but later it was confirmed that the stone had been buried in the ground for many years, and that the words on the stone were not carved into it. ”

Margaret circled the stone, and she found that in addition to the inscription "Ivon" on the front of the stone, there were other words carved on the back of the stone.

"What do these words mean?" the ice princess pointed to the three words behind the stone, which were "forgotten", "mutilated", and "white".

"No one can decipher it, even if you relate the three words together, all you get is some far-fetched explanation. Suzanne shrugged, she wasn't interested in any of these mysterious prophecies, anyway, she didn't know when the prophecy was prophesied, maybe it was five hundred years from now?

Margaret also had no way of understanding the words on the stone, or if it was artificially carved by the day after tomorrow, after all, the stone had been unearthed for many years.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Suzanne took Margaret by the arm and walked in the direction of the palace.

"If you marry my brother in the future, you will be able to spend more time studying these things, and you will be like me when the time comes, you will spend most of your time in Eve," Suzanne glanced at Margaret out of the corner of her eye, she knew that the other party's heart was still in the Winter Kingdom, "We will soon become a family, so I want to tell you some little secrets first, you will definitely keep it, right?"

Margaret guessed in her mind what the other party was trying to say—the rumors about the duke's son, Luthers.

In fact, the Ice Princess of the Winter Kingdom has not yet met Luthers, because Luther has her own fiefdom, but she has heard about this nobleman's quirks in the deep palace of the Kosai Kingdom.

It was rumored that there were many women's clothes and cloth dolls in Luthers's house, and that the servant who had revealed the news had been executed, but there was no way to stop the rumors.

"The thing I'm going to say to you is, if you find something wrong with my brother, don't tell anyone, that won't be a good thing for me, for you, or for your brother Jack. ”

At this time, Margaret began to believe those rumors in her heart, but she had already given away her happiness, because she knew that she was not only a woman, but also a princess of a country.
