94.
…And so it was that Edel and Pitt were now able to stand before Siena.
Pitt wiped the sweat that had formed on his forehead.
‘That was almost a disaster.’
His heart was still pounding.
Well, of course it was, since Edel had just revealed his real name moments ago.
“I’m Edel.”
“N-no, sir. Your name isn’t Edel, it’s….”
“Ah…! N-not Edel….”
If he hadn’t used his quick wit….
‘By now, word would have spread like wildfire that the Second Prince had arrived in the capital.’
After all, there were guests here as well.
A small sigh escaped through his lips.
“Hah….”
Currently, Edel was disguised as a noble.
Therefore, he needed a new name borrowed from a ‘noble family surname.’
‘We should have decided on that before coming out….’
They had been too frantic escaping the Imperial Palace to think clearly.
They could have decided on the way….
But this blonde-haired prince beside him was just too scatterbrained.
Edel had been distracted the entire time, and Pitt had broken out in a cold sweat chasing after him.
That’s how he ended up arbitrarily mentioning ‘de Vicelle’ when it suddenly came to mind.
“Then what name are you using, brother?”
“…de Vicelle.”
“de Vicelle?”
“Lian de Vicelle. It’s the surname used by a friend from the kingdom during my time at Tiarosa Academy.”
That was the only thing that came to mind.
Still, he considered it fortunate.
‘If I hadn’t even known that, I might have panicked and blurted out any random imperial noble family.’
That would have aroused suspicion instead.
‘It’s fortunate I knew a noble family from Lehatten Kingdom.’
Pitt moved his hand behind his back so Siena couldn’t see.
“Young Master de Vicelle.”
In that position, he poked Edel’s side.
‘Please understand, Your Highness…!’
Feeling the sharp sensation, Edel blinked slowly.
Then, as if finally realizing something, he gradually opened his mouth.
“That’s right…. Edelweiss de Vicelle! I’m Edelweiss de Vicelle.”
“….”
“Edel is my nickname!”
A smile bloomed across his pretty face.
But Siena couldn’t smile.
‘de Vicelle?’
Following Lian, then Roderick, and now Edelweiss.
‘What on earth….’
Another de Vicelle?
‘Is this place some kind of de Vicelle family reunion or something.’
Just as she was having that thought.
“Huh?”
Roderick, who had been buried in a pile of documents, suddenly raised his head.
Then he began walking with large strides toward where the people had gathered.
As the tall, red-haired man approached, Pitt instinctively hunched his shoulders.
‘W-who is this guy.’
Those distinctive gleaming green eyes were truly intimidating.
Roderick’s gaze passed over Pitt and looked Edel up and down.
“…de Vicelle?”
Edel nodded his head vigorously while smiling.
“Yes! I’m Edelweiss de Vicelle.”
Roderick quietly looked down at him as he smiled cheerfully.
Certainly, when it came to being scatterbrained, he was no less than Edel.
‘But why is he acting like that.’
This is the first time I’ve seen him look so deep in thought.
Siena looked around nervously, caught between the two.
‘Is this what it feels like to be a shrimp caught in a whale fight….’
Although it wasn’t actually a fight, I don’t want to get my back broken.
Before long, Roderick’s head tilted to one side.
“…Who are you?”
“Huh?”
Edel had an expression that said he didn’t understand.
His blinking just became a little faster.
Roderick placed his hand on his chest and spoke again.
“I’m Roderick de Vicelle.”
At that moment, some indescribable silence fell over the Center.
A very chilling and uncomfortable stillness.
And before long, Pitt’s face turned deathly pale.
‘…No way.’
His intuition was instinctively screaming.
“Lian de Vicelle. It’s the surname used by a friend from the kingdom during my time at Tiarosa Academy.”
That this person before his eyes was exactly….
The ‘academy friend from the kingdom’ that Castillian had mentioned.
He had never expected this to happen.
‘de Vicelle…. How could this happen.’
Pitt’s complexion grew pale in real time.
Certainly, everything had been perfect until just moments ago.
From secretly escaping the Imperial Palace and heading toward Aizet Baron’s mansion to accidentally discovering Siena along the way.
Like a divine revelation.
But who knew that same god would backstab them like this….
“….”
Pitt pressed his lips tightly together.
He looked precarious, as if he might faint at any moment.
‘No…, why is a noble from Lehatten Kingdom here?’
He couldn’t understand it.
‘Well, of course, since Prince Castillian gave us no hint whatsoever…!’
His mind rattled and rolled around.
‘Regarding the incident where we arbitrarily borrowed the surname ‘de Vicelle’ only to have the owner of that surname appear right before our eyes.’
Meanwhile, Edel widened his eyes in wonder.
“Roderick de Vicelle?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Wow…. I see!”
Once again, a strange silence dominated the space.
Siena, and Chase and the employees watching from a distance, didn’t make a sound.
‘…What is that?’
They were speechless at the strange situation unfolding before their eyes.
But the two people leading the conversation just blinked their eyes stupidly as if they had no idea what was happening.
Pitt thought desperately.
‘There’s only one way to salvage this situation.’
Somehow connecting His Highness the Prince and this red-haired man as relatives…!
“Y-Young Master Edelweiss! This person is… this person is…!”
“…”
“Isn’t he your cousin!”
At his desperate cry, Edel’s round eyes became even rounder.
“Eh?”
“Cousin?”
Roderick also pointed to himself with a bewildered expression.
His face seemed to ask, ‘Me? Since when do I have such a cousin?’
It was understandable.
‘I already know all my cousins by heart!’
Eloan, Jeffrey, Leming, Beatrice…
‘None of my cousins are blonde!’
Then, in the confused silence, Edel suddenly shouted.
“I’m Brother Lian’s younger brother!”
He didn’t understand the situation completely, but he revealed his identity first.
He seemed to think that was important.
“Uh…?”
Roderick reacted to that name that came out of nowhere.
Finally, the scattered pieces in his mind began to fit together.
Soon, a faint realization crossed his face.
He immediately understood Pitt’s intention.
‘Aha! So this little young master is Brother Lian’s younger brother!’
Then this young master is… His Highness the Prince of the Karnon Empire!
‘No wonder he’s blonde!’
Roderick immediately switched his attitude.
“Ah! I understand. No, I understand!”
He clenched his fist with a deliberately solemn expression.
“This person is indeed the 2nd Prin…”
“Kup!”
Pitt let out a cough that was almost like a scream, cutting off his words.
If left alone, the words “2nd Prince His Highness” would obviously echo throughout the entire Center.
He frantically sent eye signals, desperately trying to stop Roderick’s mouth.
‘Please, please…! Red-haired man, I beg you!’
Reading that deadly yet earnest gaze, Roderick finally realized his mistake.
“Hup!”
Roderick hastily shut his mouth.
‘Why!’
Of course, he didn’t understand the situation at all.
Pitt quickly corrected him.
“No! This person is the Young Master!”
“Ah? So the 2nd…!”
“No! Young!”
As the anxious conversation repeated, Pitt’s face contorted as if he was about to burst into tears.
‘That title absolutely cannot be used…!’
Roderick blinked his eyes as if bewildered.
He didn’t understand anything else, but he did read the emergency signal in Pitt’s eyes.
Then suddenly, as if he realized something, he snapped his fingers.
“…Ah!”
“…”
“Right, Edelweiss… I’ve, I’ve seen him a lot. I know him.”
Roderick suddenly changed his words as if he had known Edel for a long time.
But it was already spilled milk.
‘…Now?’
Siena looked back and forth between the two with suspicion.
They had been staring blankly at each other just moments ago, but suddenly he’d seen him a lot.
Anyone could tell it was strange.
‘This doesn’t add up.’
So what exactly are these two to each other.
‘Did they know each other but couldn’t remember?’
Siena, who had been pondering, carefully asked.
“You two… So, do you know each other?”
“No!”
Then a cheerful answer came back.
And it was from Edel’s mouth.
“I’m seeing him for the first time today!”
