Patricia, the young daughter of a countess who lost her mother at birth, grows up despised by her family and enlists in the national army at thirteen. In the merit-driven military she finally finds peace—until she takes in Third Prince Theobald, a boy in circumstances as bleak as her own. Unloved and twisted, Theobald is transformed by the rigorous “training” Patricia calls love. He comes to adore her, and she dotes on him as they enjoy life as soldiers. But one day, while shielding Theobald in battle, Patricia loses her life… or so she thinks. She awakens in the body of a small child, ready to live her second life with newfound freedom. Yet everything is different: the family who once despised her now showers her with affection, and the once-adorable subordinate is now a capable king—possessive and completely obsessed with her! A “reverse-age” romance of “An Overly Devoted but Competent King” and “A Second-Life Heroine with Zero Love Cells.”
