Ashley, looking a bit irked, snapped, “Find a way. If you can’t raise the silver; there are other ways to gather information. If you can’t handle such a simple task, how can I trust you with more important matters in the future?”

Vivian silently cursed under her breath. She had thought following Ashley would lead to a bright future, but this situation was far from what she’d imagined.

“Heath said that the King has issued an edict: The Princess of Filial Devotion, Isolde, will inherit the title of First–Rank Duke. Since Isolde is a woman, she will instead be granted the title of Marquise of Filial Devotion.”

“Marquise of Filial Devotion?” Ashley was taken aback.

In the Eryndral Empire, the system of marquises, dukes, counts, and viscounts was not strictly hierarchical–except in name, since their fiefs were equal in size. But with a county attached to the title, what was the King trying to do? Was he planning to promote her or Oliver to a higher rank?
