Red Rose Academy.

First of all, this academy had been established to gather and train all the students; especially nobles from different kingdoms into full-fledged warriors, mages and other professions.

Those so-called nobles certainly were their own kingdom's greatest force. Only they were able to stand up against the demonic beasts that were running rampant across the continent, or against from the neighboring kingdoms.

This power which the students provided had become indispensable to guard their people, country, and virtually everything.

And so, many countries and kingdom's invested in their cultivation and training.

With a beautiful garden behind its Academy walls, the school building, lined with elegant spires seemed very much like a kingdom's palace. —In fact, this was nearly entirely correct. Out of all the students attending this academy, almost all of them are genuine and proper nobles.

Aside from the different kinds of buildings, there was even a luxuriously small green hill and a natural lake.

In addition to the long corridor and pavilion above the lake’s surface, there were two boats floating side by side.

It was originally used to provide students which were mages with a place to practice their water magic. However, right now, the place was tyrannically snatched by the girls as a place to practice their singing and dancing and there were even some who were flirting while basking under the glorious sun.

On the green shores of the lake, there were a few pavilions. Interesting and appealing antique buildings could be seen everywhere. These buildings looked like it was drawn out from middle-Age Europe movies.

Together with the surrounding lush green sceneries, the scene was extremely graceful and beautiful, warming the hearts of those who saw it.

There were many villas, dorms and apartment-looking building lining up with each other.

-------------------

Leaving his home, outside the day had already brightened. Lyle yawned as he passed through the school gates.

By the way, the academy did not require all students to live within the dormitories. As a result, Lyle came to school from his house.

"However, as I had expected ... I really did become popular these past few days~"

Lyle muttered to himself as he walked.

Sure enough, as he expected, when he arrived at school, he immediately attracts the attention of all the people he encountered.

As expected they showed cautiousness when Lyle's figure was visible to them, but people who were scared of him even when his figure couldn’t be seen anymore were already few.

Majority of the gazes were those of females, and more than a half of them was looking at him as if he was an unusual animal.

He heard whispers all around him. But he ignores it.

As people passed by, a trail of artless, ill-meaning words escaped around their backs.

—Isn't that the Dragonfang Prince?

—Yeah, look he was wearing all-black on his body ... even his hair and eyes were pitch black. There's no mistaken it, he was that ' Monster Prince '

—It's really what they say ... he sure emit these ... how can you say it ... a very evil presence.

—In the end, he's just a monster.

A conversation, which he didn't really want to hear, flowed into his ears. There were also some strange whispers from the female students who saw him that made him blushed ... ...

—He seemed different from the rumors ....

—Yeah, look isn't he really hot and handsome ...

—He seemed gentle ...

Really, I don't know whether to be happy or sad from this situation~

Lyle looked at the girls who said those things. As soon as the girls noticed that the person they were talking about looked at their direction, they suddenly made a lightning fast escape with beet red faces.

“Haa …”

Lyle couldn't help but heaved a big sigh.

The sigh carried various meanings …

But although he felt like this, he wasn't regretting the fact that he showed them his real power and identity at that time. One must not forever disguise as a pig to eat tiger, otherwise one will really become a pig.

At first he couldn't understand this but now, he completely understood the meaning of these words. If at that moment he didn't fought back, he would always be underestimated and that matter will become worse over time.

... But they provoked me, it was just impossible for me to swallow all the insults and let others humiliate me as they pleased, otherwise it would wear away my heart and spirit.

But still ... ...

Why would they create rumors about me … = =

In his opinion, he was the victim here.

Oh well, who cares about them. What others think about me is none of my business ... ... = =

Thus, Lyle paid no heed to his surroundings as he leisurely entered the campus.

“Huff ... Good morning. Your highness ... huff.”

“Good morning.”

As the dazzling morning sun seemed to break through the blue sky.

A girl was huffing and puffing, panting pathetically behind him.

“... ... Hold on!”

“Hm?”

The girl tilted her head slightly.

The girl who greeted him closely tailed him.

“What’s wrong with you? And who are you ?”

“Greetings your highness. I'm the daughter of Duke Ariman Belsor; Duke of the Dragonfang Kingdom, Marcia Belsor ... ”

The girl whose face was filled with sweats replied.

She wore a blue and green school uniform that looked like a sailor uniform with a blue tie. Even though her outfit was extremely gorgeous, she did give off an impression of being boyish.

Her long and glamorous blonde hair was tied towards the left of her head, resembling what was known as a ponytail. Her facial features were extremely well-kept and she had red-crimson eyes that give off a feeling of being not human.

--- Those substantial eyes of hers exuded a fearsome willpower.

Overall, this unimaginably cute and slender beauty was practically fairy-like but had an aura of a blood thirsty tiger.

The swells on her chest were enormous and their shape was quite satisfactory. She was snappily thin at the waist. Those legs and fair, succulent thighs were moderately exposed from the miniskirt were extremely soft, also her feet seemed pretty tiny ... ....

“Alright, very nice. Thank you for the breakfast~”

“What are you talking about, your highness?”

Towards Lyle thinking aloud to himself, the blonde girl curiously asked.

The girl’s speech patterns possessed boy-like qualities.

“Ah, it’s nothing ——— Wait, hey, are you ... ...”

“Hmm?”

“Aren’t you one of my classmates ... ...?"

“That’s right. And I'm also one of the people who made angered his highness ... that's why please forgive me. And if there's something I can do for you to forgive me then ..."

“Ah, no that's fine. Let bygone be bygones ... Anyway, why are you here ?”

"Really, thank you, your highness ... Actually, ever since the first time I saw you I had already had a suspicion that you are his highness. However, I don't have any evidence or proof, does I couldn't not protect you at that time ... please punish this servant ..."

Since she lowered her head so deeply, her expression wasn’t visible.

Lyle gazed intently at the blonde hair of the girl who still had her head lowered like this.

It appears that she wasn’t going to lift her head up unless Lyle told her to. The girl remained motionless.

Turning a blind eye towards this would seem optimal, even Lyle was contemplating this unfavorable course of action.

However, Lyle already realized that there was no way he could brush aside this girl: "No, you don't need to worry. I don't really care about it ... You can just call me Lyle from now on, I don't want to be called by any honorifics of formalities that sounded very stiff in this place~"

"Ah, that's ... "

Marcia Belsor was born and a bred citizen of the Dragonfang Kingdom. Patriotic fervor flowed in her veins.

She was looking at Lyle as if he was an idol she worshipped. This kind of gaze made him very troubled.

Well, she can't be blamed. It was said, that dragons valued power and might. Lyle's mysticality, strength, enigma, guts, pride, and character had been thoroughly displayed without regret in that instance inside the classroom.

She was then, enamored and enchanted ... ...

"Please ... that's a royal order~"

"As you wish, you highness ... Then I shall call you, young master then ..."

"That's better~ Oh right, standing here and talking seemed troublesome, so how about we walked together~"

"It's my honor~"
