Description
The kingdom’s top academy, open only to nobles, had never been a welcoming place for someone like me—a broke noble barely scraping by. It was a gathering spot for highborn sons and daughters. The unspoken rule was that students were there to find marriage partners who had the right face and status. So someone like me, who actually came to study, always felt out of place. Still, I kept attending the academy—for one simple reason: money. Graduating from the most prestigious school in the kingdom would boost my reputation, helping me land a better job. All to support my family… and more importantly, to keep my little sister from being forced into a marriage she didn’t want. No matter how tough things got, I had no choice but to keep going. But even with all that determination, there were times I just wanted to be alone. One day, while wandering the vast academy grounds in search of peace and quiet, I stumbled into a rose garden. That’s where I met her— A beautiful girl with silver hair and blue eyes. And then, completely out of the blue, she made me an unexpected offer: “In that case… how about we enter into a fake engagement?” I agreed, thinking it would be a mutually beneficial arrangement. Only later did I learn that she was Yuliana Arrose, the one and only daughter of a duke in the entire academy. And for some reason… she started enjoying this fake relationship a little too much. “Fufu. Since you’re my fiancé now, you can be more affectionate with me, you know?” Wait… this is still a fake engagement… right?

My Thoughts on After I, a Penniless Noble, Entered a Fake Engagement with the Most Elegant Duke’s Daughter at the Academy, For Some Reason She Started Showering Me with Love
Okay, I admit, the title is a mouthful. But beneath that lengthy label lies a story that's proving to be quite charming, even if it has a few kinks to iron out. Overall, I'm finding it an enjoyable read, especially if you're in the mood for something lighthearted and a bit fluffy.
First Impressions
My initial reaction was a mix of intrigue and slight apprehension. The premise is classic: down-on-his-luck noble gets entangled with the school's most sought-after beauty through a fake engagement. We've seen it before, but the "showering me with love" part definitely piqued my interest. I was eager to see how the author would execute the transition from fake to genuine feelings.
What Works Well
The comedy is definitely a strong point. The interactions between the penniless noble and the duke's daughter are often hilarious, especially as he tries to navigate the sudden shift in her affections. The academy setting also provides a fun backdrop for their budding romance, with plenty of opportunities for misunderstandings and comical situations. I also appreciate the fantasy world elements, which add a layer of depth and intrigue to the story. It's not just a simple romance; there's clearly a larger world at play, and I'm curious to see how it unfolds.
Areas of Concern
However, I do have a few reservations. The biggest one is the lack of insight into the female lead's perspective. Her sudden infatuation with the male protagonist feels a bit abrupt. I would really love to understand her thought process and motivations better. Without that crucial piece, her actions sometimes feel a little… random. A deeper understanding of her feelings would definitely elevate the story and make the romance feel more believable and satisfying.
Final Verdict
Despite my concerns about the female lead's somewhat unexplained affections, I'm still enjoying After I, a Penniless Noble.... It's a fun, lighthearted read with a charming premise and plenty of comedic moments. If you're looking for a fluffy romance with a fantasy twist, this might just be the story for you. Just be prepared for a bit of a mystery surrounding the duke's daughter's sudden change of heart!
