Vivian was aware of the consequences if he were to be revealed as the one who blackmails the daughter in law of Viscount Ekaros.

"I am Rae, I have come from the Royal academy. Bring me to your Viscount." Rae wallked up to the guard at the gate of the mansion and showed a badge from royalty which authenticated his position.
The guard at the door saluted seeing the badge sparkle like a gold. He rushed off to the inside of the mansion to report it to his superior.
A minute ago, Rae had decided to walk up to the door of the mansion, none of guards disturbed him seeing his attire and confidence.
However to his surprise, one of the guards approached him and handed him a note after saluting.
The note contained a message from one of the big names, the person who assigned the mission.
The men at the door were already expecting him to be an important person after this interaction.
The guard came back quickly with his superior who welcomed Rae and apologized for the inconvenience.
"Viscount Ekaros is out for a few hours, please wait and allow me to assist you." These were the words of the supposed butler of the mansion.
"It's alright, I have some incidents which I need to enquire. Also, it's better if I directly talk to Viscount Ekaros."
"I am curious, are you the only butler in this mansion? I have heard some rumours about the previous Viscount and his butler."
Rae had no intention to gossip with the butler, but seeing that he could not find some of the servants he remembered, he asked.
"I assume you are talking about Viscount Terias. He is quite famous in the nobility. The butler that you might be looking for is obviously not me. Haha."
"I have come to this mansion from the business under the Viscount's control. I don't know about the Viscount who disappeared suddenly, but I know that the butler is on a mission."
"He normally spends his time on the missions. Is the reason for your visit today related to him?" The butler probed
"Not really, I was curious about the butler. I have heard about the rumours of his achievements."
Rae evaded the topic after the butler began probing for information. He was just curious about that guy, that butler helped him escape this place with his life on the line.
Just a moment ago, Leo was prepared to fight against the young looking student, but he was submissively answering questions.
He had tried moving his body but the simple act of inhaling and exhaling pressed an immense amount of weight against his body from all the sides.
'It is an application of Ki. A far advanced version of what the Viscount used in him.'
Leo had his heart filled with fear as he realised the situation they were in. He was hoping that the young looking man would not bother with them and just leave them alive.
"You?"
"Vivian, I also work as a personal guard for the Viscount from the last six years."
"You"
"Mathew, personal guard...."
"Louis, personal guard..."
Rae asked everyone of the four guards behind Ekaros for their introduction while he kept the other's immobilised with his techniques.
He wanted to instill in them, that being disrespectful against him could spell their death in an instant.
"Now, you can speak"
Rae turned to Ekaros and allowed him to talk. He had kept the Viscount under his aura for the longest because he wanted to talk with the subordinates first.
"You??!!? How?? How could you??" The Viscount could not utter any other words.
'That is...a level four warrior in front of my eyes. A level four whom I insulted for being a lowlife.'
Ekaros was scared so much that he had almost stumbled after being released from the pressure of Rae's aura.
His subordinates were in better condition because they did not resist against Rae. But all of them had realised the strength of the young looking student in front of them.
