Chapter 11: Chapter 10- Training(1)

El Hener Parkinson—the second son of King Zurkus El Hener.

Parkinson belongs to the neighboring nation and is someone who came here as an exchange student for just a month. However, in that single month, he became infatuated with a certain girl.

The way she talked to him without showing prejudice or believing any of those rumors that suggested his father was involved in Dark magic... just touched his heart. @@@@

She cared about him. She asked him regularly if he had lunch or if he needed any help in integrating himself with the classes. She was there when everyone looked at him with suspicion and contempt.

And that was enough for the Prince to fall for Rhea.

Under normal circumstances, Austin would have let Parkinson and the other two continue their love life as usual. He had nothing to do with them. Although Rudolph was his friend, Austin had no interest nor right to interfere with whom Rudolph hung out with.

However, if Austin remains nonchalant about Parkinson then not only Valerie—who was Parkinson's primary target—but now Austin as well, would get targeted.

Canonically, after Valerie returns from her three-month-long suspension, it was Parkinson who framed her in a severe case, leaving no option for the Headmaster other than to expel the girl.

Parkinson could go to some extreme lengths to protect Rhea and punish those who harm her.

And at the moment, Austin and Valerie are his targets. So before Parkinson does anything Austin devised a plan.

However, before he initiates that, he needs something from a certain someone.

Loyalty.

"Young master?" There was evident shock on Sebastian's face when he heard the command of his young master.

Austin, while calmly sipping on the tea Sebastian brewed, said, "Yes, Sebas. I want you to return to the Capital. I no longer require your services."

Austin plainly stated. After all that he was about to do, he couldn't let his father or anyone else know about it.

Sebastian wasn't able to answer immediately, allowing Austin to add,

"I remember my elder brother invited you the previous year to stop working for me and help him in the management. I think your skills are much needed there, Sebas."

"Young master, if I have done something to anger you, please let me know."

And as he thought(hoped), Sebastian bit his thumb and drew a few droplets of blood on the parchment.

The contract was accepted and signed so it glowed and disintegrated.

Austin smiled, and after getting up, he offered his hand to the older one, "Thank you, Sebastian. I know I can trust you."

Sebastian heaved a sigh; somehow, he could sense that he had landed in the trap that his young master had set for him.

Austin soon approached the door, urging Sebastian to ask, "Are you going to your chamber, my lord?"

Austin smiled before shaking his head, "I got a meeting with my fiancée."

It took only twenty minutes for Valerie to return to her room, take a quick bath, and change into more comfortable clothes before returning to the training ground.

Her Lord has asked her to help him train and she desires to be there before time.

Not long after(an hour), Austin appeared on the training ground with a soft smile and asked, "Did I make you wait?"

Valerie slowly shook her head, "I just arrived."

Austin nodded, before he asked, "So how should we begin?"

Valerie's lips turned into a smile that sent a shiver down his spine as she uttered,

"Before we start, I need to know how much my lord has progressed." She stepped back and asked him,

"Please go ahead and try to kill me, Austin."

"..."
