The ‘Starlight Garden’, called the paradise of the Imperial Academy,

is usually a place with a lot of floating population, but today Damon was alone.

[ Under construction! No entry. ]

This is because Damon, who learned a lesson from Ruid, used it right away.

Damon sat down on a picnic chair and waved a fancy golden wine glass.

‘This has excellent flavor.’

It was when Damon was sipping wine in a relaxed manner.

“Damon.”

“huh?”

The second princess, Irina, approached with a flawless smile. Damon asked with an interested look on his face.

“Hoo, what are you doing here? girl.”

“...I still have a bad habit of speaking. And alcohol. “You are still too young to eat.”

“If you’re going to act like your sister now, get out of there.”

Damon said cruelly.

A lineage that flows from the same blood.

The imperial family has come too far to argue with such things.

Competition, rivalry, intrigue.

Even if he does not become emperor, there have been many wars to become the second-highest-ranking ‘Kairos’ family head.

“Hmm... I think I was kinder to you than my brothers.”

Damon raised his eyebrows.

“The bitch who tried to kill me twice speaks volumes.”

“uh...?”

Irina grinned and held up two fingers.

“You only tried to kill me twice, right?”

“Stop talking about personal things. say it “Why did you come to see me?”

“Your Majesty is moving.”

Irina whispered to Damon with her back to him.

“The plan is to make Amelia Windsor the head of the family.”

Damon’s eyebrows twitched.

“how is it? “Isn’t it cool?”

“...is it true?”

“There’s no reason to lie to you.”

Irina looked amused. Damon said with a cold look.

“Say bite.”

“huh?”

“If this sound reaches Irene Windsor, it becomes dangerous.”

Irina covered her mouth and laughed.

“Wouldn’t that actually create a good cause? The Duke of Windsor—he could never betray the royal family. No matter how great Irene Windsor is, she is not stronger than the Duke of Windsor.”

“This is ridiculous. Would you treat a loyal subject who has protected your back for generations like that? “Is this really what His Majesty said?”

“Well... I’m not sure.”

Irina tilted her head.

“The act of cutting off the head of a member of the bodyguard directly under the emperor and showing it in front of the nobles... appears to be treason against the authority of the imperial family.”

Damon put down his wine with a look on his face as if he had lost his appetite. I got up from the chair, put my hands in my pockets, and looked down at Irina.

“That person seems to have become senile even though he is still young.”

How can you speak like this even after seeing the emperor?

Even though he was a blood relative, the more I saw him, the more amazing he was.

Irina covered her mouth and laughed.

“Get out of the way. “I need to go right away and give my body advice.”

“Ah, I didn’t come to ask that.”

“Is there anything more to say?”

Irina opened her eyes. The same eerie red eyes as Damon’s were shining.

“Damon Kairos.”

Irina held out her hand.

“If you are close to Louis Christopher, His Majesty’s plan will be easier. how is it? “To be on the same boat.”

Damon answered immediately.

“refuse.”

Irina smiled brightly and turned around.

“I’m sorry.”

Irina blew a whistle.

At that moment, Damon smiled helplessly.

“Still a dismal bitch.”

People appeared between buildings.

These are faces I’ve seen several times. The commoners he harassed.

Each one of them was holding a weapon. Sword, staff. Someone is holding a hoe.

Damon still doesn’t move, with his hands in his pockets.

He looked at the commoners approaching with hostile faces and shouted with a noble expression.

In other words, it was his intention that this happened.

Damon was singled out as a victim of persecution and punishment. I was guessing that it would end up like this.

That’s right, the main character is Justin. Because he will be convenient only when his play of justice begins.

But recently I changed my mind.

‘I hate commoners. ‘I like Damon.’

Very, very simple childlike logic.

However, Ruid was no longer a careless character who got caught while sleeping.

Ruid stood up.

“If there is no way, I will create one and help you.”

Above all, he owes me a debt.

“let’s go. “See Damon.”

I had received help so far, so now it was my turn to help.

**

Gilbert was embarrassed.

“Yes, Prince Damon. “If you do this, you will be in trouble.”

“How dare you ask me to sit on a chair like this! “It is too inadequate to be used as a royal decree for this body!”

Crash!

Damon kicked the wooden chair.

The chair hit the wall head-on and shattered.

This is the academy’s swordsmanship department investigation room.

It was a space set up for the interrogation of students who had committed serious crimes.

No matter how non-discriminatory the academy is, it cannot interrogate nobles while imprisoning them in a cold facility, so this space was renovated from what was originally a reception room.

But Damon didn’t like even this.

“I just need to ask you a few questions. “Can you please bear with me for a moment?”

“This is already the third investigation. “I responded sufficiently.”

“...Well, because our words are different.”

Damon’s face lit up with obvious anger.

“How dare this body lie to such lowly people?”

“No, that’s not it...”

As the commotion continued, several students from the swordsmanship club came carrying chairs.

It was a chair dazzlingly decorated with gold and jewels.

Damon’s expression softened a little when he saw that.

“Now I finally have a chair that matches the dignity of this body.”

Damon sat proudly in his chair and crossed his legs.

“Okay, tell me.”

“....”

‘The real problem was the chair.’

Gilbert was dumbfounded.

But now that Damon’s anger had subsided, it was an opportunity.

Gilbert began his investigation seriously.

“The part where the testimonies differ is who carried out the preemptive attack. So...”

“That’s it.”

Damon cut Gilbert off.

“Looking at the current situation, it seems natural that expulsion from the academy cannot be prevented.”

“...!”

Damon raised one corner of his mouth and said as if it were a waste.

“Do it. I’m starting to get bored of playing along with this little house game. Please allow me to be expelled. but.”

Damon said cruelly.

“I will execute all the lowlifes who dare to soil me for insulting the royal family.”

Gilbert, who had been investigating crimes for a long time, knew.

This is Prince Damon’s Maginot Line.

Since I have made this much concession, it means that you should also make concessions. He didn’t know that, and Damon’s request was reasonable.

but... That’s why I couldn’t say it.

‘shit. I don’t know if it’s just sparks flying for no reason.’

Former second princess Irina said she would protect the commoners who caused this accident.

The emperor also issued an imperial command: ‘Punish Damon and establish the will of His Majesty the first emperor.’

The imperial family has abandoned you, and it’s all game over.

It was absolutely difficult to say.

First, he was afraid that Damon’s anger would be directed at him. Second, it was a human sadness.

Damon was 15 years old. He was not yet an adult. If you know that no one has taken your side, the feeling of loss will be enormous.

Gilbert bit his lip. Damon looked at him with calm eyes.

“do not worry.”

“...yes?”

“I have no hard feelings towards you. It will be the same in the future as well. So please speak comfortably. What decision was made in the imperial court?”

“....”

Gilbert lowered his head.

Damon already knew everything.
