Since I've been putting up with Klydeur and Ashley's annoying remarks the past few weeks ago without Eldest, I got too lax.

"Permission to cause havoc."

I managed to hold back the latter before she rages at the oblivious duo infront of us. One thing I almost forgot is her anger issues.

"Ssh! Let them be." Since there won't be any good to come if we talk back and fight here, I wanted to excuse ourselves to leave these lunatics atleast.

"Let them be?!" Eldest hissed, golden eyes flashed menacingly. "These people should go to hell already!"

I shook my head. "Will Satan even welcome them there? I doubt it."

She blinked, processing my words. "True."

I sighed. Facing my brother once again, I cleared my throat before speaking. "It seems you're having fun, brother. We'll get going—"

"Ah, is the crown prince upset?" Ashley blinked her eyes and once again, interrupted me.

"No, I..."

Ashley crossed her arms. "You'll need to be emotionally stable in holding such conversations. Afterall, you'll be under these circumstances once you grow older. And also..."

As she continued rambling as if she's very helpful in educating me, I was almost at the end of my last thread of patience. If I snap and Eldest does as well, nobody can stop me nor the deity here. I'm trying so hard to keep calm and the peace—

"Oh, I heard you frequently left the palace. That is so irresponsible in my humble opinion."

That's the last straw.

Hanging my head low, I took deep breaths before looking up to her. Klydeur seems to be watching our every move and reaction, but I won't give them the reaction they wanted.

Not yet.

Instead of fuming in anger, I flashed a smile. "That is very thoughful and generous of you, princess. You are so wise in my humble opinion. This must be why my brother has you as his assistant."

Ashley stared at me suspiciously, but decided to play along. "But ofcourse, your highness. It is talent."

I hummed. "I thought you were just a spoiled princess who likes causing troubles and be over dramatic about everything."

She and Klydeur glanced at each others, before she asked. "And?"

"You are."
