Donāt Be Too Sympathetic

Ruby Palace. A palace built in the most remote part of the imperial palace. The princes and princesses who stay here have exactly one thing in common. ...We are hostages. Offered by the vassal states subjugated by the Tristum Empire. Josephine lived quietly in plain clothes, trying not to attract the attention of the princes. Because the moment she stood out, she would have to serve in the bedrooms of the brutal princes.***
āHahaha! This is all for you!ā āA grown man should endure this kind of trial! Isnāt that right?āA man who had fallen into the middle of the lake floated like a water lily. That man was surely a newly arrived hostage prince from somewhere. The wicked princes tormented newcomers every time under the name of a coming-of-age ritual. I clenched my fists tightly; he could really have died like that. Another hostage in the same situation as me. For a moment, I forgot my own position and felt pity for him.
āHey, are you okay?ā ā...Werenāt you almost dead yourself? Youāre terrible at swimming.āI foolishly helped an ungrateful person.
***
But thanks to that ungrateful person, I was able to escape from the priest who tried to assault me. This time, it was I who received his pity.āI wanted to run away. From the status of being the princesā courtesan.ā āThe princesā courtesan... what?āHe was shocked by my lament. Until then, I didnāt know. That he was the emperorās only legitimate son, the returned Fourth Prince.
