《Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 1)》Page 24
Advertisement
Two days later, news broke out that the only daughter of General Ardor and Lady Andrea was sent away because she contracted a strange contagious disease that affected her whole body. It is rumored that she is covered in bloody sores and needs to recuperate to the farthest border of the empire where the general has an unused manor. She will be accompanied by their trusted physicians, loyal servants who contracted the same contagious disease, and old servants who are not afraid to contract the same strange disease. She will remain in that place until she fully recovered but the big question is... Will she recover?
Most people think that young Lady Beatrix will not survive since she is already dying when she was sent away and some of the servants who contracted the disease had already died! The whole capital panicked and was very much afraid to contract the same disease and die miserably. It was rumored that the disease is so cruel that the general's daughter cries day and night and needs to be tied to the bed so that she will not scratch her already disfigured appearance!
Three months later, another rumor came out that the general's daughter miraculously survived but her appearance is very gruesome that she resembles a dilapidated ghost from the most frightening nightmare! When the general's daughter saw her appearance after she recovered, she made a scene and smashed everything that can be smashed and destroyed everything that can be destroyed! She vented her anger to several poor servants and killed doctors who could not fix her ugly face and hideous body! The general was very ashamed and angry with her behavior that she is punished to stay there in the family manor and pray for her ultimate cure. She will not be able to get out until she behaved like a noble lady!

In this manner, Beatrix's reputation is ruined as someone with an ugly appearance and shameful demeanor, so unfit for her status and so unlucky as wife-to-be. She has two powerful and wealthy backers but who, in their right mind, would pair their beloved son to this hideous wretched girl? Even the lowest of the poor will not consider, not to mention the imperial family!
Five years later, another great news spread in the capital! The emperor and empress chose two girls from two different noble families - The Khalajan and Powell families. Dinah Khalajan will marry Prince Andrew and Lizbeth Powell will marry Prince Anders on the two princes' eighteenth birthday.
It is a bit odd that the two princes will be marrying at the same time but this is according to the suggestion of General Ardor. This marriage arrangement will bring great benefits to the imperial family and since they are born on the same day, why not make them marry these beautiful noble ladies on the same day too?
The Emperor seriously thought about it and he was convinced that General Ardor is right! Although he initially preferred General Ardor's daughter but judging from all the things he heard, he really could not afford it! He is sure that his late Father Emperor will not blame him. He is just thinking about the face of the imperial family. He also doubts if any of his two sons would like to marry General Ardor's daughter who is rumored to be so ugly, ignorant, unbelievably short-sighted, and very ill-tempered, so unfit to be a future princess and unfit as a future empress!
He knows that General Ardor is seriously looking for miracle doctors and etiquette experts to solve his daughter's issues but who knows if his daughter's face and body could be cured or if she will become smart and capable enough to become empress in the future? The Emperor thought that his two sons cannot wait forever!

It was helpful that General Ardor suggested it so the Emperor thought it is a wise decision for his two sons' future. The two marriage arrangements for his two imperial sons will be a blessing to the imperial family and the whole empire!
When the Emperor and Empress informed their sons. Contrary to their expectations, both sons did not want the marriage. When they asked them. The two princes honestly answered that they both want to marry a certain girl in their dreams...

Fantasy World Epsilon 30-10
New Dive Assignment: 0B5 Personnel: Citizen of Gamma G-037-072 Jonathan Kelly World Designation: Epsilon H-037-072-030-010 Classification: Pre-industrial Exotic World, significant outliers in biosphere including atypical flora and fauna. Quarantine protocol in effect pending more data and acclimation testing. Further anomalies include populations of morphologically distinct humanoids, and aberrations in otherwise normative physics laws. Causal chain appears provisionally stable. For the purposes of delaying onset of collapse as well as above mentioned factors, only one subject is cleared to Dive. Initial mandates shall proceed with scouting and surveillance. Further details are classified. Warning: All other qualifying personnel are currently dispatched. Refusal will result in deployment delays and possible unsupervised causal decay. Do you wish to accept this assignment? Note to Readers: This is not MC isolated in a new world. This is new world joins the multiverse. What I'm tentatively coining Subverted Isekai (Formerly I used 'reversed' but, as pointed out, that would be fantasy MC goes to the modern world. Hey, there's idea! Not this book though.). There is plenty of scientific and philosophical stuff; I know that can be a turn off for some. It has a strong bearing on the story, but is mainly covered in the 'Comments & Calculations' section (optional reading of course). If you are looking for an extreme suspension of natural laws with no technical considerations, you will not find it here. Formatting Notes: Audio chatter from characters that are not currently in the scene I format in "inverted commas and italics". Given the layered nature of modern communication, I thought this distinction was best denoted visually in my prose. Critique is welcome. Language Notes Jon is a South African ex-pat. As such he will use some Afrikaans colloquialisms plus a dash of Japanese. Most importantly he says “Ja” meaning “Yes”. Pronounced with a J sound like “yo” and an A sound like “bar”. As in: “Yo, let’s go to the strip bar.” “Ja.” And not the Rastafarian /jya/. Other words: Nee - /niya/ : no Juffrou - /yif-row/ : Miss Lekker - /lacker/ : nice, good, delicious Nooit - /noit/: never The rest is mostly swear words. Indisputably the most useful words in any language and simultaneously holding the least innate meaning. Fok - “fork” without the “r”: fuck Bliksem - /Bluksim/: darn, damn. Also common noun meaning damn person or thing. Donner - “Dorner” without the “r”: originally meaning thunder, can also mean darn or damn. It is often used as a verb meaning: ‘to hit hard’ Kak - /kuck/: shit Voetsek - /foot-sack/: go away
