Why me?
There was a question in Clerivan's head.
He and the Second Prince had never even exchanged proper greetings.
He was just coming and passing by at a Lombardy mansion or banquet.
But why are you being wary of me?
Clerivan greeted Perez politely, hiding his bewildered innermost thoughts.
"Let me say hello for the first time, Your Highness Second Prince. I'm Clerivan Pellet."
But Perez did not answer.
Just staring at Clerivan.
It's not a facial expression or a serious look, it's just a habitual blank expression.
The pressure seemed to weigh on Clerivan.
It was like saying 'obey'.
But Clerivan remained calm, recalling the day he first faced Lulak.
The Second Prince is good, but not as good as Lulak yet.
He remembered that fact and tried not to be swayed.
And at some point.
The weight that was bothering Clerivan disappeared like a lie.
You were testing me.
Clerivan was able to realize.
"It's a pleasure to meet someone who leads the great Pellet Corporation."
"...It's an honor."
However, the intentional withdraw did not soften Perez's attitude.
Clerivan could still feel the subtle vigilance.
And it sounded an alarm in Clerivan's head.
'I"ll have to ask Bate for the information.'
Clerivan decided to send a letter as soon as the banquet was over.
"Can I join you?"
Perez asked Gallahan politely.
"Of course."
"Excuse me."
It was just as Perez sat down.
Bang!
Gilliu hit the table in front of him with his palm and clicked his tongue and said.
"Oh, why are there so many flies? Did you see that, Mayron?"
"Uh. The king of the big dung flies keeps walking around.”
The twins sitting opposite each other stared at Perez and exchanged words.
It was clear that it was aimed at Perez.
"Gilliu, Mayron!"
Gallahan pressed those two.
Gallahan's strict voice drew attention from the twins, but the attitude was the same.
"...Both."
Perez broached in a low voice.
"I heard that you have received an oath as a knight. By the way..."
"By the way?"
Mayron asked sharply again.
There was no respect or courtesy for the Prince, but Perez did not mind.
Instead, he threw out a suggestion.
