Strong whipping could be heard in the study room, followed by low groans, the maids flocked around outside the room with scared, pitying, worried expressions.

"You son of lowly commonor couldn't even get what I taught, how disgraceful!" and she gives another strong whip to the young child.

"Your dirty blood doesnt even deserve what you have! I wonder why the rightful young master didnt say anything to this!" she shouted while whipping the child again.


And to their surprise, a small vase collided to the tutor's head. (HEAD SHOT). Her head bleeds but nothing compare to what the young child is expriencing.

They turned to where it came from and saw a red head with flaring eyes and angry expression.


"You dare harm a HENITUSE!" he shouted angrily. He came to Basen and looked at him closer, the child's state made him tremble in anger, he hugged him as saying sorry I'm late.

"Young master! Why?!" the tutor asks for explanation

"You are no tutor, you are an abuser!!" he slapped the tutor

"It is a part of the education young master!" she talked back, she's scared

"How is this supposed an education? Care to tell me the definition of education and it's difference to abuse?" he demanded. "You ignorant! Illiterate! Get out and never come back here and never teach with that method again! Drag this piece of garbage out the territory!"


They dragged out the tutor and they tended Basen, Cale made him drink a highest grade healing potion.

As he confirmed Basen healed, he turned to the servants, who only watched and did nothing.

"Why is it no one reported this? Are you blind and deaf?" he asked.

They trembled in fear as Cale say a word to them.

"What is the real mission of a servant? Tell me" Cale ordered

"To make the masters safe" the oldest of them answered.

Cale popped his knockles, making the servants more scared.

"Then why no one reported? The garbage is harming Basen? My younger brother. Or else do you not see my younger brother as a master of this household. Are you qualified to critisize us as the legitimate masters of this household?" Cale started to talk calmly that made the servants more uncomfortable.

No one answered. They silence answered that the only legitimate master of the household is the first family of Deruth and Cale. They see Cale as the only young master of the house. 

'They maybe thought like that because they thought I disapprove and dont see them as family. It made sense since I became the count for almost a whole year, do they still think I'm the count? Did I also make it that way? NO WAY! I DON'T WANT TO!" he thought

"Mathilda!" Cale shouted.

An old head maid suddenly appeared.

"Give their punishment, they broke some rules, and retrain them rough. Brief all servants to recognise the masters of the house, I dont want this to happen again" Cale ordered.

"As you wish young master"

"Thank you young master" they thanked him for the light punishment.


Cale returned to Basen's side, he is crying because he heard it all, he felt grateful and safe.

"Basen, you are an Henituse, and don't let them do shits to you!" Cale held his shoulders and looked at him in the eyes and continued. "Basen. You are part of the Henituse household. Remember that. No matter where you go, your family name is Henituse. Got it? Don't you remember what father said? Listen to me unless you are an idiot. Tell people that the Henituse blood flows through you. Tell them that no matter what."
