While I was attending the academy, often insulted as a “pig,” I was summoned by my father during the summer break.
When I listened to what he had to say, it turned out I was to be engaged to a girl who was a frontier marquis, suffering from the same illness that caused limitless weight gain and eventual death, just like I had.
Since she’s the head of her family, I would marry into hers.
Apparently, it was an order from His Majesty the Emperor.
They said it would be just right for us to comfort each other, since we’re both going to die from the same illness.
But I’m already cured…
So what happens in this case?
And so, I ended up marrying into her family. I rebuilt the territory and silenced those who mocked me at the academy, gradually establishing my own position of power.
