Chapter 13

"What a shitty way to start the day" Keon grumbled unhappily. He was furious at the thing that just happened to him

Keon just escapes Lawrence's string puppets yet there is already someone that could control him at will

If that was not enough to dampen his mood, then what will?

Along the way, Keon notices a small pebble in the ground, and because of his mood, he kicked it away. Fortunately, no one was hit by him. If not, more trouble would follow him

However, even if Keon doesn't want anyone to trouble him, that does not mean trouble wouldn't come knocking on him

Not far from him, Keon could see three people that seems to have the plan of approaching him

The academy is huge and there are also many students around but Keon's eyes could discern things easily

He knew that these people really planned on approaching him. As for the reason? Who knows but Keon is sure that it wouldn't be anything good after seeing who those three are

The one in the middle of the three seems to be the leader. It was a moon with green hair and eyes

In the moon's ears were a pair of earrings that were yellow in color. His brows were arched in a displeased manner as his face was contorted by anger in an undisguised manner

The moon was even biting his lower lips making it redder than usual. His appearance was very eye-catching

Although this moon was not the most beautiful moon in the Empire, he was still at least a high-grade beauty

As for the ones with him, they look like twins that both have auburn brown hair and brownish eyes

Keon knew those twins but they are just moons that always sucked up to the green-haired moon. He decided to just call the twins - sucker twins

"Greetings, Your Highness!" The three greeted as soon as they reached Keon

The way they act would give the people an impression that they were in a higher position compared to Keon

'Another 3rd rate Young Masters here to clown' Keon thought in annoyance. In this world, there is really no lack of people that would want to antagonize other people just because they want to

However, if they think that Keon still doesn't know his position, they are greatly mistaken

"Young Master of Marquis Blanche, are you uneducated?" Keon questioned harshly

Since these people are acting like 3rd rate villains, don't expect that Keon would treat them amicably!

"W-what did you say?!" The moon son of Marquis Blanche - Hessy Blanche asked in extreme shock

What kind of person would suddenly ask someone if they are uneducated, especially to a high-ranking Noble?!

"Since the Young Master does not understand my question, then I guess I have no choice but to repeat it. I ask again, are you uneducated?"

Keon was even harsher than the first time he asked and the three unconsciously took a step back

Is this still really the same Keon that they know? He looks more like a street ruffian!

"Y-Your Highness! Are you insulting me?" Hessy questioned angrily. His forehead wrinkled while his fists were clenched tightly as if he would hit Keon any moment from now

"I am not. I was merely asking if you are uneducated. If Marquis Blanche hired an etiquette instructor for the Young Master, I believe you would know that the way you greeted me is incorrect" Keon said coldly

He is not someone that is obsessed with his position and etiquette but if he could use them to these 3rd rate villains, why not?"

"T-this..." Hessy gritted his teeth, unable to refute. He knows to himself that his greetings can be considered as impolite and rude by royalties

It's just that he didn't expect that Keon would be this blunt and harsh about this. Isn't Keon supposed to be cowering in fear already? Where does this confidence come from? Could it be...

"Anyway, since I am a magnanimous person. I give you a second chance to greet me according to the Empire's etiquette. This time, make sure that you are not going to commit any more mistakes. Even a magnanimous person has a limit for their patience"

What magnanimous person? Although there is a proper way to greet a royalty, most of them wouldn't obsess over it especially if the greeter comes from a high-ranking Noble Family!

However, since there are a lot of students around that witnessed what happened, Hessy could only repeat the greetings

"Greetings to the 1st Moon of the Empire, Your Highness Keon Blythe Morningstar" Hessy greeted with his head hanging low and his hand in his chest

His two lackeys with him also followed suit in panic and they all greeted Keon according to the Empire's etiquette rules

"See, you're not actually uneducated. Maybe you just lack manners" Keon commented with a sneer before deciding to end this nonsense fast. "So, what do you want from me?" He asked crudely

Hessy finally raised his head and asked the question that he badly want to know the answer to. "Your Highness, is it true that you are the Young Duke Cain's fiancé?"

Turns out, that was the reason why these 3rd rate villains approached him, it was all because of Cain

Now that Keon remembers it, he recalled that Hessy Blanche always loves Cain to the extreme

Hessy even died in the original timeline all because he tried to scheme against Keon. At that time, Hessy was angry that Keon became Cain's fiancé, just like what is happening right now

With a desire to be Cain's fiancé and spouse, Hessy tried to eliminate Keon. Too bad that in the end, it was him that was killed. Not to mention, his family was even ruined because of his actions

If Hessy wants to commit the same mistake then Keon wouldn't mind giving him the same fate again

"I am, and?" Keon admitted confidently. He hates that bastard for what he has done to him but it was still true that Cain is his fiancé

Having that kind of fiancé is beneficial for his plans. He doesn't mind letting people know about it
