Villain Princess.

"Miss Mirabelle... your score is not any better." Adela sneered back.

Mirabelle’s face flushed a bit before she snorted arrogantly. "What are you talking about? It’s very good!"

After coming to the academy, Adela learned that the students whose name were not written were usually because their score was really bad. To save face for these students, their ranking would not be announced.

So far, Adela’s result was also not announced.

After all, Adela is a duke’s daughter and her status was really high. If people were to know that a duke’s daughter’s result was really bad, it would be difficult for Adela to show her face.

So people within certain scores were simply not announced.

In this way, the other students would not know how bad their scores were. At most, they would think that these students have scores slightly below but at how bad it was, they wouldn’t know.

And Mirabelle was not any better.

"That’s because..."

"You..."

...

Aurora didn’t know that her sister was quarreling with Mirabelle after crying. Even if she knew, she would not care in the slightest bit.

At night, Aurora received message from Adela’s maids.

"Miss, Adela’s maid reminded Miss not to be so harsh to the Second Miss," Les, Aurora’s maid, reminded in a low voice.

Aurora knew that this message was not only from the maid but also from the White Family. After all, if Aurora were to shame Adela in the academy, there were two people who would pursue the matter until the very end.

"Tell her, I know."

"Yes, Miss."

Aurora looked at the book on her desk and there was a faint sneer on the corner of her lips. If Adela remained this way, she would only be the useless duke daughter without any knowledge whatsoever.

But her parents only thought about protecting her sister.

It seemed that they didn’t want Adela to face these things at all. Even though they knew that it was inevitable in the future, they didn’t want Adela to see these so quickly.

Tsk.

’Should I say that your care is enviable?’

Aurora shook her head.

She did everything possible to achieve good result, but her parents never turned in her direction. On the other hand, her sister did nothing but her parents gave them all of their attention.

Her parents’ way of teaching their children...

It was very unique.

But Aurora didn’t care that much anymore.

Time passed by quietly.

One year and more passed and now Aurora is already in her third year while Adela was in her second year. In the past year, Aurora could see that Adela spent more of her time studying instead of going to the Student Council Room.

It seemed that Adela wished to become better rather than staying the same as she used to be.

It was a good thing.

And Aurora no longer bothered with Adela and instead busy with her other things. Aside from her work, she has been reading various books from the library. She went to pay a visit to the few people she assigned to work after the last negotiation and everything seemed to be doing well.

She gave them a few more instruction and also giving additional funds based on their performances.

After that, it was her usual academy days.

At least, until today.

"I have to attend the party?" Aurora asked Annelie with strange expression.

Annelie nodded. "The third year is the one hosting the end year’s party, so we have to participate."

In the previous two years, the end year party was not mandatory and Aurora was too lazy to entertain the other nobles, so she simply skipped it. Besides, with her status, no one would dare to force her to attend.

Crown Prince Edward himself attended but Aurora didn’t know the details.

Anyway, he should have kept a low key since there was no rumors or anything like that after the end year party ended.

But now as the third year, they have to attend the party and Aurora was not exception.

"I see." Aurora nodded.

She has enough dresses.

In the Capital Academy, they have their own uniform, which helped to save money for Aurora. However, she still bought some dresses so that if there was any need, she would be able to dress properly.

After all, her status as the duke’s daughter required it.

Now that there was the end year party coming, Aurora had dresses to attend and didn’t have to do a last minute preparation.

"It’s really troublesome... can we wear knight’s clothes instead?" Lucy asked, feeling rather troubled.

Because of her study in the past, Lucy didn’t really like wearing dresses and instead liked to wear her knight’s uniform. She herself was not a knight yet, but her skills were nearly on par with knight.

It was said that after she reached 16 or 17 years old, she would try the test to become a knight.

After all, her territory was at the border and in order to lead her soldiers better, it would be better for her to be a knight rather than just an ordinary noble.

"No, that’s not allowed." Annelie shook her head at Lucy’s question.

Even though Annelie still didn’t like Lucy, she was still willing to interact with Lucy from time to time.

In any case, they have known each other for nearly three years.

"Go and prepare your dress," Aurora reminded.

"Yes."

These two girls nodded and then made their way to their own dormitory.

Thankfully, there were no classes nearing the end of the year. Most students usually spent their time playing together or doing some other activities.

Aurora went back to her dormitory and thought about the dresses she had. Which one would be the most suitable for the end year party?

Just as she was thinking, there was a commotion from the other dormitory.

Aurora stopped in front of her dormitory’s room and knocked inside.

"Miss?"

"Les, figure out what the commotion is about," Aurora gave her instruction and then went into the dormitory.
