The Elegant Rules of the Handmaiden and the Princess

The Elegant Rules of the Handmaiden and the Princess

日野うお

"This is an order. Fall in love." For a lady-in-waiting, an order from the princess is absolute. At seventeen years old, Eleanor Gaulant has just had her engagement broken off, and she is bewildered by her master's command, but... This is a story about a serious-minded girl earnestly falling in love, working, and getting caught up in conspiracies. Eleanor, who tries to understand love by reading romance novels and goes astray, becomes confused by the words and actions of her former younger brother and the second prince amid her difficult mission, repeating misunderstandings... She's working at about 40% romance and 60% work. ※As of July 2015, the main story has been completed. Going forward, I will be updating side stories little by little. ※This is a sequel to "Eleanor's Great Setback," but I intend to make it understandable even if you only read this one. I plan to increase the romantic elements compared to the previous work.
