Oppose the female lead

Chapter 2

Although I say I am 5, I have yet to have my 5th birthday. It's actually next month, also the month in which my secondary Gender is revealed. Although, I already know what my secondary Gender is, as the female lead's elder brother, I am an Alpha.

My elder brother is a dominant Alpha like my father and my younger brother will also an Alpha like me.

I have already started making my moves, such as buying the gold mine, making ties with the information guild.

Thinking about it, everyone's making quite a fuss, my five years with father made me realise he was much different from the novel, perhaps because mother dies he becomes cold hearted.

It is expected, mother and father love each other dearly. Right now he is smiling and flirting with my mother, making me eat dog food, should I break something to get their attention, no I definitely should do something to get their attention.

So I let go of the tea cup making it crash on the floor that immediately earned their attention as well as the servants, everything was dead silent.

“If you, flirt with each other, one more time, I will never...”

They looked at me anticipating my answer, actually what should I say? “Speak to the both of you again.” I am cringing hard right now, although my expression is rock hard outside, look at their awestruck expression, they look like they have seen a ghost. That cliche threat actually worked? Amazing but cringe, I am not doing that again.

“Arti... We, we are sorry! Please talk to us again.” Just what is this cringe storyline. Someone get me out of this situation.

“Mother, Father, you should really restrain yourself when it comes acting like that in public, it's quite revolting.” oh my elder brother, only you can speak such stuff with an angelic smile like that. I feel pity for whoever crosses your path.

“Since we are over that, I request keeping the guests to minimum, I don't want much of a grandiose celebration.” It's too much for me to meet so many people, especially when they are so judgy about everything.

The remark from my etiquette teacher was : ‘You are beyond hope.’ she immediately quit after two months of teaching me. That's how horrible my etiquette is. I can barely understand the dining manners and I am actually very embarrassed about it, I mean, the other reincarnated protagonist follow these tiresome etiquette with now problem, but I am having a very hard time.

And since I can barely follow the dining etiquette, I don't even need to mention my dancing skills.

Look at their sympathetic faces, I am sure they understand my feelings very well. They realise I am probably very embarrassed about my skills.

“Artecius, you are the second son of the Reinvere duchy. No one in this world holds a candle against you.” My father's voice was stern.

“Even if that's the case, etiquette is the basic of the basics of being a noble. If I can't even follow that...” I am a failure of a reborn person. Sorry Korean reincarnators, transmigrators, time travelers, I have failed you.

“My dear Arti, you are such a sweet son of mine.” sweet? Me? I am always thinking about committing arson. She has a serious misunderstanding of my character.

“If anyone were to point their finger at you–” her thumb moved from her left side of the neck to her right, her smile look scary as well, the shadow over eyes is very dramatic. Where did my sweet mother go? And why I am suddenly picturing an image of her smiling brightly while covered in blood and a dead body at her feet.

“I agree with mother, Arti.” I know you also think about committing mass genocide, but could you please not encourage mother's thoughts of arson.

“That's right, we have a lot of people to ‘clean’.” my father, could you please not support murder? And your smile is scary too!

These people, they really want me to kill don't they. Is this place that lawless? Or is the duchy that powerful? I guess the answer is both.

“Please stop, I don't want much bloodshed, we will go with mother's plan then and please don't commit murder, human life is precious.” Yeah, I am lying on their face. I also just want to do a Massacre.

I mean who wouldn't when killing is permitted? But let's maintain my image. It's too early for me to kill people, I will kill when I grow up.

“That's the confidence dear Arti!” yeah thankfully my mother is back to her normal self.

“So the curtains should be of....” And then everyone was back to deciding the preparations for my birthday banquet.

Since I don't have any knowledge about a noble's banquet I let them to make any decisions fit. I don't really care about such things.

All I have to do is grow my influence to live a normal life. Anyways, it's about time I got engaged to the villain.
