Episode 29

“You know, you’ve been talking a lot about Yerine’s lack of skills, and you’ve been saying that she’s probably the top student at the Academy by cheating.”

Boyleis continued to recline with his waist down and listened to Cassius’ voice, which was as cold as ice.

He wasn’t brave enough to straighten his back in the situation and face Cassius.

“That……that’s not what I meant–”

“So what do you mean by that? Anyone could see that your remarks were meant to undermine Yerine?”

“…..”

Boyleis himself knew well that he could not refute it. So with the fact that the man in front of him won’t let him go easily.

Rumour has it that the Second Prince was crazy about Yerine Spade. No one knew exactly what Spade thought of the Second Prince.

‘Damn it…… I should have done a good job not to spread it.-‘

The successor of the spades, with the lowest position among the 7 Imperial Family, was in harmony with the blood of the royal family. Even so, it was Boyleis who never thought that the prince would come forward himself.

“I’m sorry….. I was in vain. I’m not going to appear in the Academy in the future, and I’ll apologize to Lady Spade.” said Boyleis, with his hands facing each other, with his waist down deeper.

But Cassius spoke as if he had no interest in the words.

“No thanks. I’m not here to hear an apology.”

Then he put his finger to his mouth, frowning his brows with an irritated face.

“You’re going to be expelled anyway because the incident has been handed over to the committee, and apparently your family was cut off from the Ace family. Right?”

“…..”

Boyleis clenched his fists.

All efforts to get to this place were denied, and the prince was scratching him by mentioning it. Still, what can he do? He had no choice but to answer.

“…….yes.”

“Then, let me ask you a question.”

With the words, Cassius strode along.

Every time the eyes, shining golden like beasts under the hazy moonlight, approached slowly, little by little, Boyleis had goosebumps all over his body.

When the golden pupil was almost just around the corner, Cassius moved his lips and growled low.

“Do You think you’re going through worse than this?”

“Yes?”

An ominous premonition struck Boyleis.

As he pretended not to understand at first, the prince smiled bitterly, flashing his yellowish glistening eyes.

“Do you think things could get worse than now?”

“What’s that mean……”

“Answer me.”

When Boyleis faced a face that revealed Cassius’s willingness to chew the other person with his bones madly, Boyleis felt a cold sweat on his back.

“That, that’s…”

“Huh? Why aren’t you answering?”

As Cassius drew his legs closer, Boyleis, who had already been the limit, said anything in dismay.

“Hiikkk! Uh, I don’t think so……!”

At that moment the sound of Cassius’ footsteps snapped.

As soon as the signs that were approaching disappeared, Boyleis, relieved, lowered his arms that covered his face and asked with a creeping voice.

“Is, is that enough…?”

As he lowered his arm, Cassius, who caught Boyleis eye, erased the smile he had made on his face earlier and was looking straight at Boyleis with an expressionless face that gave him goosebumps.

“Pr, Prince…?”

The voice hardened Cassius’ expression. Seeing his face like that, Boyleis screamed in horror, not realizing what he had done wrong.

“Please, save me! What did I do wrong?”

Cassius, who did not bat an eye even to Boyleis scream, soon sighed and touched his head with his right hand.

“You still haven’t come to your senses……”

Cassius muttered a little, but unfortunately, Boyleis didn’t understand it.

“Yes?”

“No, nothing.”

Cassius, who was shaking his head, said with his golden eyes shining.

“You said you thought your situation couldn’t get any worse here.”

“Well, yes. But……”

Then Cassius glanced at Boyleis, glaring with his eyes.

“I’m sorry, but it could get worse. And I want to explain the process for you since you are too stupid for that.”

“What are you talking about?”

Cassius took a piece of paper out of his arms right away and thrust it in front of Boyleis.

“What is this, Boyleis?”

After being at a loss for words, Boyleis went forward and read the paper he had put out.

There was a list of unknown items and numbers on the paper that had been stained here and there.

“What is this….”

As Boyleis exhaled, Cassius answered, jerking away at the paper.

“I’m pretty curious where your fake DXellaria came from because it’s not so easy to get the ingredients, as Rayl said.”

“……”

“So I personally go to the store where I could get the ingredients and find out who recently bought them, and I found something interesting.”

At Cassius’s words, Boyleis face turned white.

“The ingredients were all bought by Boyleis.” Cassius smiled, showing his white fangs.

“Ther, there must be some misunderstanding.”

“What do you mean, you’re cursing my intelligence right now?”

As the thud of breaking bones came from Cassius’ fist, Boyleis shut his mouth in silence.

Now, no excuse would have worked for the Prince.

“Well, an expert wouldn’t have made a mistake in making drugs. It was natural that people who couldn’t handle magic potion properly made the drug, so there was a defect, and yet you believed it so confidently that it was DXellaria and used it.”

“…….”

“Do you know what it means to have traces of your family trying to manufacture DXellaria?”

Boyleis trembled at the voice that overwhelmed his opponent with uncanny strength.

“The private manufacture of DXellaria by anyone except the Imperial Family and the members is prohibited. As soon as I file a complaint to the Imperial Court with this document, your family will be hit pretty hard. Of course, there will be a trial.”

The words embarrassed Boyleis and shouted.

“Hold, hold on, Prince, it’s-”

But Cassius didn’t listen to him and murmured with a grin.

“Baron Boyleis knows that and I don’t know about it but I thought he would be very proud to see his son standing at the trial later on.”

“Your Highness Prince, please don’t–”

“But Boyleis, you’re not a baron yet and it’s not a real DXellaria that you’ve made, more than that the amount is only little.”

In the sight of Casius laughing leisurely at the paper, Boyleis saw the face of the devil delighted to see the sinners suffering in hell.

“And if I use my hand a little, I can even charge you with treason. People can’t help but wonder why the baron tried to illegally manufacture DXellaria.”

Cassius talked, sweeping over his hair which was more black than the night sky.

“At that time, it would be interesting to make evidence, not for trivial reasons such as the Academy Test, but because he tried to intimidate the imperial family beyond the 7 Imperial Family who protected the Empire with magical power, right?”

Then Boyleis flipped to the floor.

He put his knees to the ground, his head bowed, his hands forward, and murmured.

Apologizing

“Pl, please save me………I’m sorry…….”

“…….”

“Please, just once….”

Cassius, who tilted his head at the sight, said slowly.

“Do You want another option?”

At that remark, Boyleis suddenly raised his head and crawled toward Cassius.

“Please, if I had the 2nd option, please……… not as much as a trial. Please… mercy…”

Cassius, who was staring at Boyleis, nodded and answered unexpectedly.

“Okay. Then I’ll give you another option.”

“Thank you, thank you……! Hahae your highness……”

Boylis, who shed tears and trembling with an impressed face, noticed the shadow over his body only a while later.

Thinking that it was strange at the nape of his neck, he raised his head and made eye contact with a tiger with his bright yellow eyes awakening in the dark, revealing his fangs.

“Uh…… ah…”

The voice of Cassius was heard in the head of Boyleis’s hardened body.

[The other option is to fight with me now and win. If you win the duel, I’ll just burn the paper I just showed you.]

The tiger’s wide-open mouth had sharp teeth that could penetrate the skin of the crocodile.

The tiger’s claws, with its body lowered to its fullest, looked like a giant scythe.

[Seeing there is no answer, it looks like you want to fight with me. If you don’t say no, count three and jump right in. one]

“Wait a minute!”

Boyleis, who made his first loud voice since meeting Cassius, cried half-heartedly and begged Cassius.

“I can’t… I can’t……… please……Ugh….”

The tiger, who was fluttering its golden fur, looked down at Boyleis, who shuddered and made a nasty sound.

The voice of Cassius, filled with contempt, rang out in the head of Boyleis, who was crying on the floor and shedding tears.

[I don’t know what Yerine is like, but I never let it go. Yerine says she’ll pay back double what she’s got.]

A tearful Boyleis looked up slightly at the tiger.

[If anyone touches me, he’ll go to the end of hell.]

“……”

Then the tiger opened its mouth wide and roared with a tremendous sound like a battery ringing. Scared again by the thunderous noise, Boyleis fell flat on the floor.

[And touching Yerine is like touching me. It’s like touching me, the Second Prince of the Tigris Empire.]

“….….”

[You bastard overlooked that.]

“I’m sorry… …Please save me…”

An angry tiger’s warning rang out in the head of Boyleiss, who had his nose on the floor.

[Don’t even dream if you intend to retaliate over this.]

A bright golden eye flashed in the dark.

[I’ll tear you to pieces]

In the calm-looking night sky, the noble tiger let out a roar of flame.

“Cassius? Where have you been? It’s cold at night.”

In commemoration of the completion of the test, they shouted at Cassius, who had disappeared somewhere while we were playing together.

Cassius, who returned, had a very refreshing look on his face.

“Just. I’ve got someplace to go. Anyway, did you worry about me?”

“Of course I’ll be worried. How could I not be worried?”

Cassius shut his mouth with tears in his eyes.

“Oh, my God, you really worry about what’s going to happen to me.”

“No, I was just worried if you had an accident.”

Then Cassius crumpled up again with a look of yes and gave a look of despondency.

“Yes… that’s what you would say…….”

“Let’s relax and listen. Because I have something to tell you.”

At the words, Cassius pricked up his ears like a puppy waiting for its owner.

“What is it?”

“Thank you.”

I turned to Cassius, who was following me, and said,

“You helped me earlier. Thanks to you, I was able to solve it well without any major problems.”

Cassius stared blankly at me for about three seconds and soon blushed red in the face.

“Oh……T, that, that’s nothing much, all of that time, I would have done what I had to do.”

Somehow I laughed at the sight.

To Cassius, who was covering his mouth unseen, I led the hardened Cassius inside.

“Come on, let’s get in. Everyone has been waiting.”

It was years later that I learned what Cassius was doing that night.
