S1 E27: The Sixth Candidate?

Felt...why did you have to declare me the next candidate? What was the point of making me the sixth member of the royal selection? Did you see something special inside me? If--so--explain to me, the achievements I fabricated in my lifetime...

-FLASHBACK...TO AFTER THE LEADING ELDER, SPOKE-

???: I see...in any case all the candidates are here at last. The Royal Selection will now begin!

-Excited to listen about how this selection would take place, and when...there was some doubt in my mind for my little sister, does this make her a valid target due to her being a threat to Elsa...or any assassin organization. Because, if this is true---how will I protect her?-

Felt: WAIT?! JUST A MINUTE! THERE IS SOMETHING IMPORTANT I WANNA DISCUSS?

-Staring in wonder of her outburst, she turned around to look towards me.-

Jiro: (Shy) Felt...what are you doing? 

Felt: Hmph---you'll see... <taking my arm, she brought me forth before the old man> 

???: And who might you be, young man?!

Jiro: Umm---I'm---<gulps>

Bush-Brow: Speak, boy! And be mindful of what you say before us---we do not want another imbecile within these courts....

Jiro: My name is Ren Katsuki Jiro---sir <bowing> 

???: Jiro, you say! Hmm, very interesting... tell me...why did you come here? 

Jiro: Umm---I came to---

Bush-brow: Are you dim-witted, boy?! You sound more like a spy in the midst of this royal--- <unexpectedly terrified> ah...my apologies. 

-The old man seemed to be quite furious with his associate, raising in a hand for silence, I was amazed someone could hold so much power, especially for his age-

???: Not a single word...from you... <gazing at me, he rested his hands under his chin> continue, young Jiro!

Jiro: Thank you sir---as I was saying---I am the brother of Ms. Felt...

???: Her brother you say, presumably older perhaps?! 

Jiro: Yes, your grace? 

???: Please, no modesty from you---I am not royalty...

Jiro: Sorry---

???: No offense taken... <smiling> 

-My brain began to split and tear itself apart from the inside as I get visions...strange ones...only hearing the voice in my head---the only thing I heard was "the second son..."

???: Are you alright, my child?

Jiro: Yeah--- <massaging his head> Have we met before? 

???: No...not that I'm aware of but---you do seem quite familiar.

-Openly speaking, Priscilla took a stepped forward, waving her fan whilst she admitted-

Priscilla: Please, may you just get to the point already, Jiro? What are you trying to hide from all of us? 

Jiro: I'm not trying to hide any---

-Interrupted by my little sister, she stood between us to defend me-

Felt: I don't know who you are, ginger? But, you need to step back!

Priscilla: Or what, you little brat? <waving her fan, the movement became swifter>
