The first volume of Ambi Ono's latest work, titled "The Older Majesty's Clumsy Favor - Even though it's a political marriage, you care too much about me!", has officially hit the stands this March 10th. This story is actually based on the original writing by Rikako Shindo and it is already creating a bit of a buzz among fans who enjoy romance with a twist. If you are looking for something new to read, you should definitely check out The Older Majesty's Clumsy Favor as it brings a very fresh perspective to the age-gap romance genre.
A Story of Political Marriage and Unlikely Love
The plot is quite interesting and starts with a heavy setting. We have Eleanor, who is the princess of a country that has unfortunately been defeated in war. As part of the peace treaty or political arrangement, she has to marry Silvis, the king of the victorious nation. Now, the main talking point here is the massive age gap. Eleanor is just 18 years old, while King Silvis is 39. In the story, there are many voices of concern from people around them regarding this 21-year difference, but our princess Eleanor is quite bold and she doesn't seem to care about these opinions at all.
On the other side, Silvis is a very experienced man and he has already decided that he won't "mess" with Eleanor. To him, she is almost as young as a child, or at least someone who could be his daughter. He wants to keep his distance, but Eleanor is not having it! She openly declares to Silvis that she will definitely make him fall in love with her. It is quite a funny and frustrating situation because she tries her absolute best to approach him and win his heart, but Silvis is so seasoned that her efforts don't seem to have much effect on him initially.
