"Ahhh what a shame that was the last match for today but worry not tomorrow more exciting match will take place!"

"So I will see you all again tomorrow! Now all the participants can leave the stage"

The first one to leave is Princess Arabella and the second is Princess Eloise, after that is Prince Nathaniel the rest is waiting for them to pass their table

But when they almost pass their table Princess Arabella abruptly stop and take a step back

"Oh my! I almost forgot my handkerchief"

She say that while purposefully step on Princess Eloise foot so she would fall, but that unsuccessful because the Princess acted on reflect grabbed the table nearby so she can balance herself and make things on the table fall including the tea pot make the contents spilled towards Cale

Cale it's a little bit late to step back so his arm got drenched by the hot tea

Princess Eloise look horrified she immediately took out her handkerchief and wipe Cale hand

"Oh- oh- I'm so sorry I didn't mean too..."
"Please forgive my foolishness"
"I will accept any punishment, please forgive me"

The Princess keep ranting apologizing words, she still wipe Cale hand and arm that start became red

"Young master Cale are you alright?!"
Sir Lyonell who is surprised immediately go to Cale to check his conditions

"Oh my, such ungraceful thing"
This is what Princess Arabella comments when she see the mess, at first she almost got annoyed when Princess Eloise didn't fall but the result is more great than what her think

Princess Lucretia just look at Princess Arabella in disgust

"Haha the hand will surely got burn-"
Prince Nathaniel comments abruptly stopped mid sentence whe suddenly a lot of bloodlust start to fill the plaza and it getting worse when a dragon fear also mixed in it, the heavy pressure makes the audience scared, all the elves and dark elves is frozen solid in their seat

Cale family and allies is the one who release such things they really mad and pissed off, if Clopeh Sekka is here he will shout this
'How dare you do such blasphemy!'
And no one will refute that, someone who make any flaws on Cale smooth milky baby skin is a blasphemy to them

"How dare this human do such thing to him"
This is what Rasheel said while gritting his teeth

'Cale right now is under my protection and this mere human dare hurt him in front of him, unforgivable!'

The others is not better than Rasheel
Besides him Archie ready to murder someone

"So she choose to die today"
"Hyung this is really unforgivable"
"She wouldn't complain if I pour a hot water on her right"
This scary trio Choi Han, Lock and Rosalyn already planning her demise

Eruhaben is almost lost control of himself
Gashan swore to nature
Bud and Toonka almost jump from their seat and ran towards Cale if not for Gleen and Harold

"My fluffy might love to chop her head off"
"You should rip her body apart too while your at it"
Two vicious woman chatting with each other while Paseton try to calm them down

In the waiting room Ron benign smile got cold, Beacrox took out his great sword
The childrens Raon, Hong, On, and the wolf children is not better than the adults they swore with such creative words that if Ron is not in state of anger or Eruhaben is here they're surely get some long lecture

Some of the nobles and royalty is panicking when they feel a strong bloodlust around the area

"It seems someone is not value their live"
This is what king Shickler said, Prince Valentino is nodding his head at what Shickler said

All the Prince and Princess who participate is get down on their knees, they can't stand such pressure
Princess Eloise is really a mess, she think this is her last day, she sobbing and keep saying apologetic words

That's when they heard a nonchalant voice but still it as if the voice is a beautiful voice spoken by some higher being

"Enough"

One word, that one word make all the bloodlust disappeared like they're never there in the first place
They can breath again and all of the eye fall to Cale and right now Cale feels really annoyed

'Why the hell I should got drenched? And are the others is out of their mind? Did they want to make the Roan kingdom become a target to other kingdom?'
'Haaa so annoying'

"You should stand up your Highness"

Cale extended his hand towards Princess Eloise he doesn't understand why the Princess acted this way, the Princess keep repeating words of apologize

'It's as if she commit a great sin and ready to face death'

The Princess stop her sobbing and take Cale hand still feeling really scared

"Sir Lyonell"
"....yes?"
"You should escort Princess Eloise to her room"
"Ye, yes! I will. I will escort her safely to her room"
"Great, now good bye I will go back to my room now"

Cale decided is a good idea to leave the stage and rest in his room he so tired and his drenched shirt is not make him less annoyed

When Cale already leave the stage the others is also start to leave the plaza

"Prince Alberu we should head back too"
".....yes, you can go first prince Valentino"
"Alright then I will go back first"

Alberu still smiling politely but Valentino can see the arm rest that in Alberu grasp is cracked, this indicated that the Crown Prince soon to be Emperor is really angry

Who wouldn't? His precious dongsaeng is get hurt and the culprit is in front of Alberu but he can't do anything
'Not yet, I will surely repay this'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inside Cale room is literally chaos

The moment Cale step in his room the childrens jump at him and freet at his burning hand

They pour thr highest grade potion and make Cale chug a whole bottle of it, even if he said he was fine they don't believe him

"Human do you think this great and mighty dragon is fool? Your skin is red! That's mean it got burned"
"Our youngest is right nya~"
"You should get treatment Cale nya~"
"Young master should I dispose of her?"

Ron cold voice is so vicious it's makes Cale shiver but he need to answer this scary butler

"No need, not yet"
"I understand young master"

Brak!
The door swung open abruptly
"Cale-nim!"
"Young master-nim!"
"Young master Cale!"

A lot of people swarmed inside Cale room and make sure he was okay before they left one by one because Cale said he wanted to rest

The last one who arrived is Saint Jack
"Young master Cale I heard you are hurt? I will heal you, so let me take a look at the wound"

Cale wanted to facepalmed
'Why the hell Jack is here when he should be busy with the preparation of the coronation?'

"Saint-nim aren't you currently busy? And I'm also alright so I don't think I need any healing"
"If it's for you I'm not busy at all and I'm not believe that before I see it myself"

Cale just sighed and handed his burning hand to Jack
The Saint looks relieved when he see the burning on Cale skin
Cale thought it's because the wound is not really fatal
"See? I told you it's totally fine"
"I'm still healing it"
Contrary to Cale thought Jack is relieved because Cale allowed him to see the wound and heal it, Jack would be delighted if he can be any of help to Cale even if to heal a slightly paper cut Jack still happy

After the healing session, Cale took a nap in his room with his children
