“Is that Duke Gwennois? He’s quite the distinguished gentleman for the Empire’s protector. I heard the duke is still unmarried. I wish I could marry him!”
“Is this your first time at a ball like this?”
Duke Silastri of Gwennois is infamous in high society.
People have practically reached the point of judging someone’s experience in high society by how they speak of the Duke of Gwennois.
He is the Empire’s protector, the hero who slew the Red Dragon, and a descendant of Gavin the Dragonslayer. Even with all those titles, he can’t shake his reputation as a scoundrel of a duke.
Still, all of that is just gossip whispered in private.
If anyone dares say it out loud
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress, I’m absolutely heartbroken. At the recent social gatherings, everyone seems to think I’m unfit to inherit the title of duke. I feel so ashamed to keep clinging to it.”
“Which bastard’s been gossiping about this menace behind his back?!”
Blurb 2
Silastri has been hounded by the young man he rescued in the Misty Forest! He finally escaped the stuffy life of a noble surrounded by people at every turn and found some peace, only for a little follower who wants to repay him with his body to show up?
“Lord Silastri, how do I do this?”
“Lord Silastri, help!”
“Lord Silastri…”
Just when he finally manages to shake off the little follower, someone even more troublesome latches on to him.
“Your Grace, Duke of Gwennois, why did you seduce me and then abandon me?”
