Camille is a nondescript person.
She thinks so herself.
Living in a dispensable family, gradually growing up and becoming a dispensable family member.
As the father of a low-level nobleman, his only baron title was brought back from the border during the Battle of Fog Moon. All he did at home every day was to scold him and drink.
She knew that her father's job was very unsatisfactory.
Just because he was the general who surrendered to the Principality of Millistan, he has been ostracized in the kingdom's aristocratic circles over the years.
"Camille, are you in the same grade as Miss Chris?"
That day, my father suddenly came to talk to me about life in the academy with a happy face.
Camille was really happy when he was talking to her. She thought her father had finally noticed her daughter, who had no outstanding features.
However, what came out of his mouth were such cold words.
"In the academy, please show me a brighter look. Dad, my career depends on you! As long as you can please that eldest lady, I can do whatever I want you to do!"
There seemed to be a fire in his eyes.
What it contains is full of ambitions to climb to higher positions.
Camille smiled lightly.
It turns out that this is all my father wanted to tell me.
"knew."
Probably because of her father's bloodline, she was born with a high affinity for magic, and it is very likely that she will awaken powerful magic in the future.
Coupled with her own hard work, she was evaluated as "excellent" by the academy teachers in the qualification test before admission, and she was finally able to pass the selection process of Qingxi Academy.
After working so hard, I was able to sit on the same campus and take classes with those young ladies who were born to be well-dressed and well-fed.
However, even so, his achievements cannot be seen in his father's eyes.
The only thing that could gain his approval was the fame and fortune before him.
She followed her father's instructions and wanted to get close to the eldest lady who seemed to have everything in the world, the duke's daughter Chrissie Wincher.
Before that, Camille had heard a lot of rumors about her from other people she knew.
Never wear the same thing twice.
What you should never eat is a cake that has been left out for more than two hours.
If you marry the crown prince in the future, you are destined to become a distinguished queen.
What others dream of, is within easy reach for her.
The daily life of the young lady in the rumors was as out of reach to her as those legendary stories.
But, for her father and her family, she had to flatter him.
Even if it's just to be a follower, or something that the lady uses to amuse her.
Determined to give it her all, she mustered up her courage and waited for the road she must pass when leaving the school.
'Whenever she passes by, I'll go up and talk to her. '
Camille said to herself.
However, when Chris actually appeared, Camille realized clearly that it was impossible for her to stay with that adult.
Under the noble and exquisite little hat, there is extremely dazzling slightly curly blond hair hanging down to one side.
The many rare accessories that can be seen everywhere on her body make Miss Decliss's appearance even more dazzling.
Chrissy Winche was surrounded by a group of dazzling little girls, who were surrounding her like crabs' legs and feet.
"Ms. Chris, try this! This is a pastry made by myself. It uses special ingredients, which are fragrant roses specially cultivated by my mother's family."
A petite girl held up a very delicate snack box and spoke enthusiastically.
Chris just glanced at it, accepted it casually and said, "Thank you for your thoughtfulness. When I take it back, I will enjoy it with my family."
"Miss Chris, do you still remember the dessert shop we went to last time? I heard that they have launched a new style. I would like to invite you to try it again. I wonder if you are free?"
The other girl clenched her hands and looked expectantly at Chris, who was walking in the middle.
But her words caused dissatisfaction among the other girls.
"Molly, how could you do this! We should have been the ones to challenge Lady Kris first!"
"That's right! How could Miss Molly run away alone?"
Camille just stared blankly.
Watching them pass by not far from him, he didn't even notice that there was an inconspicuous girl in the corner, secretly looking at them.
Forget it, it's impossible.
She accepted the result with peace of mind.
"Waste! You are such a waste! You can't even do this well!" Waiting for her at home was her angry father.
He roared and rebuked her, as if he was not promoted because Camille failed to please Miss Chrissy.
Camille just listened silently.
Bear with it.
Because this is indeed something I failed to do well.
After that, my father seemed to have given up on this way of seeking refuge, and became more depressed day by day.
But he didn't let himself do anything else.
After all, rather than pleasing anyone, he was more afraid that his incompetent daughter would offend those big shots who were either rich or noble.
She thought that was the end of the matter.
However, this semester things have changed again.
Duke Elliot, who was extremely powerful in the kingdom, had an adopted son. Miss Chris, who was famous in the academy, had a younger brother.
Perhaps due to some fate, the child named Wayne was assigned to his class.
That was a boy with a gentle smile.
Although his father did not make any further requests in this regard, Camille found that he always paid attention to this transfer student subconsciously.
In him, there was no scruple hindered by his status as an adopted son.
Whenever going to and from school, Camille could always see him laughing and chatting with His Highness the Prince or Songli-sama.
Even standing next to Miss Chris, his aura was not inferior at all.
It should be said that he is worthy of being the child of the Duke, as if he was destined to be active in such an environment.
Camille noticed that Wayne Winche's character was actually very different from those of the great nobles.
He is very polite and will never belittle others because of their low status. He is soft-spoken and makes anyone who speaks to him feel happy and relaxed.
Moreover, he is not like Miss Chris, who always has a group of subordinates around him. Instead, he is often seen alone in a daze, as if he is always thinking about something.
He is neither enthusiastic nor cold, just like a glass of boiled water at the right temperature.
To this day, Camille still doesn’t know what thoughts she had on that day when she tried to talk to him.
"Classmate Wayne, can I touch this...?"
But fortunately, his response was as gentle as his smile, and he gave the Poppy doll to himself.
Under the guidance of that voice, she made many moves that she had never imagined she would do before.
For example, join the craft department.
For example, talking to that Miss Chris.
For example, after accidentally seeing his blank paper, he resolutely answered most of the test questions in other subjects incorrectly.
only for--
I can get a little closer to him.
