Synopsis
Outcast noblewoman Agnes finds unexpected kindness and potential love with the princess's fiancé, Nazelbart.
"Lady Bumpkin"—that is what most of high society called Agnes Evantail, eldest daughter of the venerable House of Evantail. Ridiculed for her outdated makeup and antiquated clothing, she has been a pariah among her peers for as long as she can remember. After yet another failed attempt at becoming engaged, her parents make her attend the princess's engagement celebration in hopes of finding a fiancé there. Agnes begrudgingly goes to the party, where she encounters Nazelbart Florescruz, the princess's fiancé, and the only person to ever show her kindness. What begins as a chance meeting between two unlikely souls may blossom into something more, as Agnes discovers that there might be more to both herself and the mysterious Nazelbart than society's harsh judgments suggest. In a world where appearances can be deceiving, perhaps these two misfits will find that they have more in common than anyone could have imagined. (Source: J-Novel Club)
