Agnes used her wealth to her fullest for his virtue.
A large electronic display board in a downtown square in the capital.
It was an advertising tool often used by nobles or those with wealth through business to promote their businesses.
A photo of Kylo wearing the Black Knights uniform appeared there.
The photo of the wind blowing the hem of his cape was so beautiful that even people who had a negative opinion of Kylo were impressed.
And at the bottom of the photo, there was an affectionate message written saying thank you for being born.
The first day the advertisement was posted.
Benjamin Gray, who was on his way to meet a friend, discovered it by chance.
‘What is that?’
This road was one he passed almost every day.
There was a salon nearby where friends who enjoyed gambling together gathered.
Originally, this area was the center of the downtown area where nobles and wealthy merchants gathered.
As it was a place like that, advertisements for big businesses run by nobles would be posted on the largest electronic display board.
Benjamin also always looked at that billboard every time he passed by, and dreamed of advertising his business there in the future.
But hanging there was the face of the child he hated the most.
Kylo Gray.
At first I thought I had seen something wrong.
‘happy birthday… ? What on earth is that?’
When I checked the date, I found out that the number written on the electronic signboard was the illegitimate child’s birthday.
‘Who on earth would do such a crazy thing?’
Are you even thankful he was born???
The existence of that filthy illegitimate child was a terrible shame to my brothers and mother.
But then there was an advertisement celebrating the birthday of that illegitimate child…!
The feeling of shame and humiliation was so great that he could not lift his face.
What kind of crazy person is this…
‘Kylo, aren’t you the one who did that?’
If you think about it, there was no one who would do something like that except that bastard Kylo himself.
Benjamin left his promise with his friends and went back the way he came.
He had to tell his father right away, who had only good things to say about Kylo recently.
‘Father, you are dreaming!’
My father firmly believed that Kylo would introduce the princess to him and brother Bradley.
However, even though the founding period had passed, there was no contact from Kylo at all.
That bastard deceived my family.
I had to tell my father right away what a terrible thing Kylo had done.
However, I was on my way back to the mansion in awe.
Benjamin Gray’s steps stopped.
“…….”
Benjamin turned his head to the side, feeling a strange sense of déjà vu.
It was in front of a luxurious teahouse said to be frequented by noble women.
This tea house was very elegant and gorgeous from the outside.
I heard that the aristocratic guys I gamble with also make reservations here whenever they go on a date with a girl.
That’s why it’s a place that noble women like…
If Benjamin were to go on a date with a beautiful noblewoman in the future, he definitely planned to go here.
But why…
In the window of the glass-fronted tea shop, there was a picture of Kylo that I had seen on the electronic display board earlier.
‘What is this…?’
Benjamin climbed the stairs and looked inside the teahouse.
Inside the teahouse, there were young couples who looked like nobles and ladies who seemed to be having a gathering…
They too were looking at Kylo’s photo hanging on the wall as if it were strange.
‘What the hell is this…?’
Something strange was happening in the capital.
Benjamin ran to the mansion as if he had seen a ghost.
And there was a woman wearing a black hood passing by.
A woman wearing a black hood that covered her from head to toe was lingering in front of the tea shop suspiciously.
She then looked at her electronic display board, which had a large picture of Kylo on it, and took out her camera in front of it and took a picture of his own face.
No one recognized her as the princess of the empire.

Unfortunately, the birthday ad went down the next day as it was booked for her next appointment.
She originally wanted to keep it up all week, but the owner of the billboard was reluctant.
He said that if he doesn’t keep his existing promise, the advertiser of the next advertisement may try to kill him.
Agnes was disappointed, but she didn’t insist because she had taken a lot of proof photos.
‘Why is it that that is the only day on which advertising is possible?’
Unfortunately, even though it was a birthday advertisement for Kylo, the person involved didn’t see it.
This was because Kylo left on a mission the day before the advertisement was aired.
Kylo should have seen that commercial more than anyone else…
‘Kylo’s birthday party without Kylo…’
His lonely life felt sad.
She was very sad, but the only consolation was that she left behind many photos.
‘This photo came out well.’
Agnes, who was enjoying her leisure time alone in her home, checked each and every photo she had taken.
A selfie taken in front of an electronic display board, and photos taken at the birthday cafe.
There was also a courtesy shot of a pretty cake and a holder with Kylo’s photo on it.
It was a sacred ritual before a meal for fans that ordinary people could not understand.
‘I have to go there one more time before the birthday cafe period ends.’
The electronic sign went down in one day, but the birthday cafe was scheduled to run for a few more days.

Unlike Agnes, who was enjoying her time alone, the social world was in an uproar due to a billboard hanging in the downtown area yesterday.
People who saw the advertisement with their own eyes were curious about who placed the advertisement, and those who didn’t see the advertisement didn’t believe the rumors.
The one who jumped more than anyone else was the Gray family.
Some people speculated that it might have been Viscount Gray’s doing.
They said he posted an ad celebrating his illegitimate son’s birthday in order to start a fight with his wife.
Thanks to this, Viscount Gray felt very unfair.
If there had been extra money to advertise on that billboard, Viscount Gray’s living standards would not have been so tight.
Moreover, the wife and children who made a fuss about it were an added bonus.
“Who on earth…Huh, maybe it’s the Marchioness Melville! She must be out of spite and trying to insult me! hah.”
The Viscountess cried loudly all night.
She didn’t answer any questions about what happened with the Marchioness, and just cursed at the Marchioness.
‘I saw what happened at the last sponsorship party.’
I wanted to console my wife for not telling me properly, but I had no idea what to do when she was so excited and sobbing.
And even if it weren’t for his wife, he had a headache.
It was because of Benjamin and Bradley making noise.
“Father! How long can I just trust and wait for that guy! That bastard has no intention of introducing us to the princess in the first place?”
“That’s right! He’s the one who put up that strange advertisement! He did that to insult our family!”
“We need to find out where that bastard got all that money, father! He might have borrowed money by impersonating the Gray family!”
Although it was a headache, it was a problem that couldn’t be ignored.
An advertisement celebrating the birthday of an illegitimate child appears out of nowhere.
In Viscount Gray’s opinion, the only person who would do such a thing was Kylo himself.
‘It would have cost a huge amount of money to place an advertisement there….’
The only money Kylo earned was the salary paid to his position as Leader of the Black Knights.
The wealth Kylo earned during his time as a mercenary had already been stolen by Viscount Gray and put to good use.
How did a guy like that finance that much money?
As Bradley said, he might have sold Viscount Gray’s name.
He’s been pretty generous with Kylo lately, so he might have taken advantage of that.
Furthermore…
‘The problem is that I decided to introduce my children to the princess, but he hasn’t contacted me so far.’
More than anything, I couldn’t tolerate self-deception.
Although he sent people to Kylo a few times to urge him, he didn’t come to his mansion recently, using the excuse that he was busy.
Still, it didn’t seem like he was off on a mission. It was clear that he was avoiding it on purpose.
