At the same time, in a different place...

"Ah, what a peaceful night... The fresh wind here was indeed different from the wind in the Empire." Someone with blonde hair said.

"Luckily, I also ran away in the same time when father left to pick up the third-in-line to the throne. Oh, father said that the third-in-line will be beaten by someone, right? Will he be okay?" he said again.

"Should I find someone to serve him as his personal butler? If I think about it, he doesn't have a personal butler. He only had Noir, the youngest son of the crow tribe as his overseer." The person said again.

"Oh, there's someone there. No, there's two people there. Let's approach them."

The blonde haired elf approached two people who were not far from him. The two people were a man and a woman. The man sits in a wheelchair, while the woman pushes the man's wheelchair.

"Excuse me." The elf called.

"Ah, is there anything we can help you with, Mister Elf?" the man said.

"First of all, let me introduce myself first. My name is Damian Marley Arleon, Second Prince and first-in-line to the throne of the Arleon Empire in the northern continent. If you don't mind, may I know your names?" Prince Damian said.

"Oh god, His Highness the Imperial Prince. My name is Taylor Stan, the eldest son of the Stan Family. " Taylor introduced himself while bowing.

"My name is Cage, a priestess of the Church of the God of Death." Cage introduced herself.

Well, naturally they would know about the Arleon Empire. The Arleon Empire was renowned as the first Great Empire to successfully rule over a large continent like the northern continent.

Damian was first in line to the throne, in other word, he was a Crown Prince. So, the two of them felt awkward at being suddenly approached by the First Crown Prince of the Arleon Empire.

"Taylor, I mean, Young Master Taylor, have your feet been like this for a long time?" Prince Damian asked.

"Ah yes, my leg has been like this for years due to a pretty gruesome incident." Taylor answered.

"Oh, ah I want to ask one thing." Prince Damian said.

"What is it, Your Highness?" Taylor replied.

"Why in this Kingdom, Cale Adenca Ar- I mean Cale Henituse is known as 'trash' and 'disgrace'?" Prince Damian asked.

'Adenca? Since when did Young Master Cale have the middle name 'Adenca'?' Taylor thought.

"I haven't met Young Master Cale in person, so I only know about him through the rumors circulating about him. The reason why Young Master Cale was called that was because he had a hot temper and liked to throw tantrums when he was drunk. That's all I know." Taylor answered.

"It was so different from the Cale that I knew." Prince Damian said.

"Your Highness knows Young Master Cale?" Taylor asked confusedly.

"We know each other, we're really close. Our relationship is like older brother and younger brother." Prince Damian replied with a smile.

'Cale is indeed my little brother, after all.' Prince Damian thought.

'Young Master Cale has such a close relationship with Imperial Prince Damian without anyone knowing?' Taylor thought.

"Anyway, I'll tell you one secret and heal Young Master Taylor's leg as a reward for answering my question. Then, I also looked for a butler." Prince Damian said.
