Teaching The Tyrant Manners - Chapter 1 – A Tyrant And An Etiquette Teacher

Chapter 1 – A Tyrant And An Etiquette Teacher

“Ha……”

Rivier sighed as she looked at herself that is reflected in the mirror.

The image reflected in the mirror was a woman with luxurious blond hair and intelligent blue eyes who sighed. I’ve been seeing the same woman for a week, but I still haven’t been able to adapt.

Rivier Blanche.

The Duke of Blanche’s only daughter. Due to her picturesque appearance, she is praised by the aristocrats of the Luwens Empire.

…..Then, what should I do? I’m about to die.

“Haaaah…….”

At the sight of Rivier, who gave a deep sigh in front of the mirror, Geroni, her maid, spoke cautiously.

“Y-Young Lady?”

“Huh? What’s wrong, Geroni?”

“His Highness The Crown Prince is waiting for you.”

“I’m aware.”

“If you keep him waiting, he might get angry…..”

“Yes, I know that, too.”

After giving her a vague response, Rivier sighed once again.

As she looked at the sight reflected in the mirror of Geroni pacing around due to anxiety, Rivier shut her eyes tightly in hopes that the mirror has deceived her, but that wasn’t the case. Then, she turned away from the mirror and straightened her body.

Like what Geroni said, that crazy bastard will be angry if I make him wait any longer.

As Rivier walked along the hallway, she felt as if she was being dragged to a slaughterhouse.

Should I run away now?

But, she soon pulled herself together by sighing once again.

Where can I even go if I run away?

When she entered Rivier’s body, she also got her memories, but among those memories of hers, there was no such information as to how she could sneak out of this spacious mansion.

And it wasn’t a fairytale-like world where an unidentified woman could live happily alone with a few pennies.

If I went outside without an escort, I would meet a robber right away or face a more dangerous situation.

Most of all, it’s only been a week since I became Rivier.

When she realized that she would be the first one who’d become a victim of the tyrant by putting together the unfamiliar memories in her head together with her current circumstances, the tyrant had already arrived at the mansion of the Duke of Blanche.

Every morning, I’m still screaming at the unfamiliar ceiling I see when I wake up, but I still haven’t found a way to change my fate.

So all that’s left for Rivier is her desperation to do as she pleases.

She walked in the hallway with the intention of looking down on Croft, the male protagonist who is said to be distinguished.

Geroni looked up at her graceful and dignified walk that was quite different from usual.

Geroni sympathized with Rivier, thinking that she must have been nervous because she was going to meet someone who is rumored to bite and kill people if they make a mistake.

The two passed by the long hallway with despair and sympathy. Rivier knocked, then Geroni opened the door.

Before walking towards Croft and appearing in front of him, who was sitting on the sofa, Rivier took a deep breath.

Croft had a handsome face.

His red eyes and black hair, which were described as ominous, were also beautiful.

The fierce expression on the beauty’s face seemed even more attractive.

Rivier admired him and sighed again.

What’s the point of having a nice shell?

Croft in the novel was an unprecedented lunatic. And a lunatic is always scary.

He is the male lead of [I Am Loved By A Tyrant].

The unlucky prince, Croft.

His father, Emperor Sun, drove Croft, who was only seven years old, to the eastern border, which was a lawless district with a mixture of immigrants, demons, and escaped criminals.

He spent 17 years in that pit of hell. No, not just that. He also became the strongest lunatic in the east.

It is said that Croft was only 20 years old when he formed a mercenary corps that made all of the people in the east fall under his feet.

In the end, the emperor, who was looking forward to his son’s death, died first.

When the throne became vacant, Rivier’s father, Duke Blanche, brought Croft to the capital.

It was to establish him, who was the eldest son, as the emperor. He also made his daughter become the empress to foster the power of the Duke of Blanche.

The problem was that the Duke of Blanche was the first to be killed when Croft became the Emperor

The problem was that Emperor Croft went through the Black War and became a tyrant, which made him destroy the Duke of Blanche.

Starting with the Duke of Blanche, the crazy tyrant, Croft, brought blood to the Luwens Empire to get Lillian, the heroine.

I couldn’t even count how many people, who unknowingly made a mistake, died while Croft and Lillian were doing this and that.

And Rivier was the first one.

Rivier, who managed to swallow a sigh, bowed her head to avoid Croft’s red eyes.

Her mind was clouded, but her body remembered the elegant manners she had learned for 20 years.

“Greetings, Your Highness, I am Rivier Blanche.”

Rivier’s hair flowed down like a thread. Not only were her hands, which were holding up her dress, but also the movements of her neck and waist while maintaining a straight posture were elegant.

Croft looked at Rivier’s face and clicked his tongue.

Although he was a benefactor who gave him the opportunity to turn the bloody palace upside down, the Duke of Blanche was persistently troublesome.

He nagged him about learning the imperial etiquette and sent him a woman who seemed like she would break if he touched her.

He raised his chin, while his long legs were on the table. Then, he tilted his head and shot at Rivier.

“The etiquette teacher that the Duke has sent me is his own daughter?”

“Yes, Your Grace. I will do my best to assist you.”

“You can try, then.”

“Pardon?”

“Teach me.”

Croft glared at Rivier. His red eyes looked as though he’d cut her throat if she spoke one more word.

Rivier was confused in front of Croft, whose eyes and lips said different things.

As Rivier clasped her hands that were moistened with sweat together, she tried her best to pull up the corners of her mouth.

“Then let’s discuss our future schedules.”

Croft was deeply impressed by what Rivier said with a smile.

He thought she’d run away crying because he scared her openly, but she was stronger than she looked.

Croft looked away from Rivier as he could not keep staring at her smiling face or tell the Duke of Blanche’s daughter, who was essential for him to become the Emperor, to get out.

Rivier stood in front of Croft, who turned his head away with an uninterested look on his face, for a long time.

You told me to teach you, but you flawlessly ignored me for a long time.

Rivier, who could neither leave without the prince’s permission nor rush the prince’s response, stood for a long time just looking at Croft’s eyes.

Then, gradually, her anger began to rise.

What the hell are you doing?

When a person talks to you, you must answer back….. Where did you learn to treat people as if they are invisible with your feet on the table?

It’s as if you are against the person who came to help you.

Whether he’s a tyrant or a young master, Rivier hated people who are rude very, very much.

You want me to teach you?

Rivier, who bowed her head and conveyed affirmation, approached Croft cautiously.

Thereafter, Rivier clasped her skirt with her hands and kicked Croft’s long legs off the table with all her might gracefully,

Croft’s long legs slid from the table to the floor in a 120 degree half curve.

‘Just now, what…..?’

Croft had a hard time trying to process what just happened to him.

Croft, who was looking at his legs with a look on his face that indicated that he thinks what just happened was absurd, turned his gaze to Rivier. His red eyes looked as if they were burning.

The gesture in which Rivier lifted her skirt slightly was perfectly elegant even for him, who didn’t even know any manners.

Whatever she does, she looks like

Her picturesque appearance doesn’t change no matter what actions she does.

He thought for a moment.

Then his long legs suddenly turned in a 120 degree half curve.

Does this woman even know that none of the people who have put their feet on his body are alive?

Rivier’s face remained as bright as before as though she hadn’t committed a mistake.

Because he went through something so absurd, he missed the right time to get angry.

“What do you think you are doing?”

“I’m doing my duty.”

“I think you just kicked my legs.”

“Putting your legs on the table is not worthy of the Emperor’s dignity, Your Grace.”

“Is kicking the future emperor a dignified act?”

Croft was growling, but Rivier didn’t bat an eyelid.

“If you don’t like the way I teach, ask my father to change your etiquette teacher. He will comply with your request.”

I didn’t kick his leg with this intention in mind, but it was a good idea to say it anyway.

Rivier smiled, pulling up the corners of her mouth.

In the novel, Croft spends a week at the mansion of the Duke of Blanche and enters the palace. He was also with Rivier, who used to be his etiquette teacher.

In other words, if Croft will have another etiquette teacher, she may not be taken to the palace.

If I am able to buy time and get used to this world, I will be able to fund a way to escape before I die.

Rivier’s blue eyes sparkled with hope.

Croft, who saw Rivier with such an expression on her face, was dumbfounded.

When Rivier smiled brightly at the joy of finding a way to live, a fierce smile spread over Croft’s face.

“No, I want to see how far you can go as an etiquette teacher. I look forward to it.”

No, why?

Her blue eyes, which were now wide open out of astonishment, asked why, and Croft only smiled dangerously.

In front of Croft, who was worried about what to do with a cheeky woman who dared to kick him, Rivier vowed.

I will avoid being the etiquette teacher of the tyrant at all costs.
