《The Ultimate Puppeteer, Aristia's Brother || The Abandoned Empress》Chapter 5: Dropped off at the Rass Estate

The next day
Right in front of me is a man with ruby hair and eyes, staring down at me with a grin.
" v( ̄∇ ̄) Welcome Anastacius to my estate! Sorry your dad had to go to the borders in my place. I promise that you'll enjoy your 3 days here!" Duke Arkint De Rass was tasked to babysit me for 3 days and 2 nights.
"I am honoured to be given the privilege of staying at your humble abode Duke Rass" I said while putting my left hand in my chest lowering myself into a 135 degree angle to express my gratitude.
" W-well follow me inside. I want to introduce you to my family" He must've been caught off guard at my expansive vocabulary.
" The servants will bring your luggage into your room so until we reach the dining hall won't you tell me about yourself?"
The whole walk I redirected the topic from me to his family so by the time we've reached the door to the dining hall he has just finished his story of how he courted Duchess Ernia.
The doors were opened revealing two redheads and a woman with the Color that contrasted her husband's. I wasn't really expecting a warm welcome from her, considering she was engaged to Dad before. (;一_一)
" I'm back my dear and I've brought a special guest"
" Greetings I am Anastacius La Monique, I apologise if my stay here will cause you trouble. Though I am honoured that I have the privilege of staying at the infamous Rass Estate, I truly am sorry for the short notice" Doing the same bow I did earlier, I finished my greetings. Kaysian looks like he is a couple of years older than me and he is not as responsible looking as he did in the manhwa.

"Anastacius this is my Wife Ernia Shana De Rass and my first Son Kaysian De Rass. My youngest Carsein De Rass is still sleeping"
"No need to be modest, it is our pleasure to house you" Duchess Ernia said with a polite smile. She is great with words and expressions, as expected of a princess. The air got a little colder, but I made myself look like I didn't notice.
"I hate to leave you kids alone but I'll need to have a talk with my husband "
"No need to ask my lady after all I'm the one intruding in your home"
So the two kids were left alone in silence. As the older one Kaysian greeted me first.
"Hello! As you've heard my name is Kaysian, pleasure to be your acquaintance!" He said holding out is hand for me to shake.
"The pleasure is all mine sir Kaysian" I said as I accepted the handshake.
Silence once again surrounded as so I as the mentally older one gave out a topic. That I know he will be very interested in.
"Sir Kaysian do you like swords?"
By the time the two adults came back, a scene of two children talking enthusiastically yet fit for their statuses baffled them.
Them: ( 〇 □ 〇)
The children looked like they have been best friends for their whole lives, who hadn't seen each other for a while. (^∇^)ノ ( ̄∇ ̄)
" Then when I was running laps there was this frog that jumped into my face! After that I never went to that part of the Estate again!" The redhead said with joy and hand movements to emphasise his story.
Kaysian: \(' O`)/
" That must've been very startling ne!? Wow your so courageous sir Kaysian!" The white haired boy said with admiration in his eyes.

Anastacius: (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ
The grown ups were stupefied to see their shy son easily getting along with the blank faced boy. As the first to break out of their frozen state, the woman with ice like features let out a fake cough.
"My! You boys seem to be getting along very well. Why don't we sit at the dining table and wait for lunch there hm?"
"Wake Carsein up" Sir Arkint ordered a maid close by to wake up the sleeping 2 year old Carsein. I wonder how that looks like.
"Yes Mother! And An you can sit next to me!"
"I am delighted with your offer sir Kaysian but I'm afraid that is not my place, it should be for your brother sir Carsein"
"Ah you're right...but after lunch let's go outside! I want to show you the sword Father got me!"
"Sorry Kaysian but I have to tour sir Anastacius around first" Duchess Ernia said with a small smile
"Aww.." Kaysian hung his head down with a crestfallen. And I am sure, right now Lady Ernia and Sir Arkint are trying so hard not to comfort this cinnamon roll in front of me.
"Don't be down sir Kaysian we you can still show me the sword afterwards 'kay?" I did the over exaggerating comfort the cinnamon roll move.
"Ah right! You're so smart An!"
" I thank you for your compliment"
All of us were now seated at our places with the variation of lunches in front of me. It's been a Long time since I was able to wake up before lunch. But today I woke up inside a carriage already at the Rass estate, with random things in my luggage. What a great way to start the day. Suddenly the door was slammed open showing a tiny boy with ruby hair and cerulean eyes like his Mother. He was a bit chubby and his cheeks still have that of baby fat. A chibi Carsein...I am seeing a chibi Carsein. He's very adorable and I have an Achilles' heel. I tend to love adorable things...oh shit.
"Mother! Father! Brother! I heard there was a guest! Are they here already!?" He is a literal ball of sunshine who in the future will insult Aristia. How did he even hate noble girls to that extent anyway?
So before Lady Ernia reprimands him I stood up.
"Greetings sir Carsein. My name is Anastacius La Monique and I am staying at your estate for a while. Pardon my intrusion" Doing the same bow, I greeted him.

Should Anastacius be Top or Bottom?
I think he'd be a great bottom though! Comment what you think (≧∇≦)/
