The Age Of Arrogance

The devastated territory of Pervaz, after a long war and its new Lord who must raise Pervaz, Asha Pervaz.
She approached the Emperor in hopes of receiving rewards for her victory, but what she received was a greeting with ridicule as the ‘barbarian princess’ and an absurd proposal to give her the choice of a marriage partner as a reward for victory.
Asha had to make the best choice in this situation.
“Then…… Duke Carlyle Haven.”
She points to the 1st prince, who is ranked 1st in the nobility list and who was recently stripped of his crown prince status due to a huge scandal.
She thought that if he got angry and refused, she would demand compensation for it, but unexpectedly, Carlyle accepted her choice.
Promising enormous support for the reconstruction of Pervaz.
“What do you want from me?”
“Don’t care what I do in Pervaz. Don’t expect to be treated as a wife, and don’t even think about siding with me. And when I ask you to, just sign the divorce papers without complaining.”
It was a deal that Asha could not be disappointed with.
She took the hand of this arrogant man who even ridiculed his father, the emperor.
A charming smile spread across his lips.
“I’ll be looking forward to work with you from now on, wife.”
