Chapter 175: Truth Can Be Painful

When Miles was looking for Merlin, a person approached him in a red suit with golden dragon designs on it. Inside the suit, the person wore a black shirt. He was looking at Miles with disdain.

What the hell are you doing here? Came to work as a valet? Tian Ling asked. There was a beautiful girl in his arms. She was a foxy lady with a revealing dress. She brought her dainty hand in front of her mouth and giggled lightly.

Miles looked at the duo with listless eyes and was ready to walk beside them. He was too lazy to argue with this gobshite. His vain conceit self could wait for a little while more before Miles could deal with him. But like every other smug, he couldnt take Miles ignoring him.

I am talking to you, trash! We are not in stronghold anymore, so Quinn cannot protect you. This is not a place you can enter on a whim. Only invited people can enter. I dont know how you can afford that cheap-looking tuxedo of yours, but I suggest you enter your trash tin thing you call a car and go home before you embarrass yourself anymore. Tian Ling smirked and warned Miles. His finger was pointing at him, and he was about to tap him in the chest. Miles grabbed the finger and squeezed lightly.

Argh! Let go of me! Tian Ling roared silently. Too embarrassed to shout out loud to admit his inferiority.

Who do you call unworthy? A female voice arrived from Tian Lings back, and Miles let go of his finger. Mae walked by Miles's side in a blue dress. She looked gorgeous.

Miss Shin. Tian Ling greeted, This man is nobody, so he is just a blot on the landscape. I was just helping the Shin family to get rid of this stain.

You dont know who you are talking to, do you? Mae shook her head helplessly as she looked at Miles ragingly. Why do you always pretend?

I dont pretend, Mae. I just dont care what a worthless dog such as that thinks. Miles shrugged his shoulders and looked at Mae, You look beautiful.

I am sorry for my offense. I wasnt thinking straight, because Quinn was helping that thrash every time we had a disagreement. I thought she was here to protect him once again. Tian Ling apologized silently. Merlin looked at Miles and pointed at him, This thrash? Tian Ling nodded.

It wasnt Tian Lings fault to not recognize Miles. Miles was low profile all his life because he didnt have a superpower. He left the school where rich kids went and enrolled in public school. He also never showed up in gatherings held by influential families. All in all, he was as low profile as he could be.

After he arrived at the stronghold, he rented a regular room. He was poor and he was hunting with weapons worth nothing and wore armor worth nothing. When he was fighting with Porseila and others, his powers werent remarkable.

Of course, after two conflicts, Tian Ling learned his name and last name, but Cross wasnt a rare surname, to begin with. He never ever thought that unseemingly poor boy was the youngest son of the General Cross, Cruel Heart. Son of Major General Cross, Malcolm, son of top scientist of Unity, Evelyn, brother of young star of the army, Merlin and brother of the Witch of Elements, Marcela.

Any of these identities would scare any person heard shitless. But Miles wasn't letting people know, nor was he acting like it. He refused to take a privileged room in the stronghold, he had no orb weapon nor armor, and he looked poorer than a homeless person. Which he was when they first met. It would be weirder if Tian Ling found out his origins.

Do you know who this trash is? What his name is? Merlin was still pointing at Miles and was calling him trash on purpose. Miles rolled his eyes, while Mae and Quinn giggled.

He is not anyone important. His name is Miles Cros Tian Ling looked at Merlin, his eyes wide open. Realization struck him and made his back go cold. He looked at Miles's face and eyes. Same eyes.

Yo-You are? Tian Ling looked at Miles and asked with a stutter.

Lets go. Miles shook his head and walked by frozen Tian Ling. He was too lazy to deal with this conceit prick. Merlin looked at Tian Ling with a smile and walked with Miles, while Mae and Quinn caught up at the back. They both had schadenfreude in their eyes while looking at Tian Ling.

Even the girl beside Tian Ling left his side and left him frozen in the parking lot.
