After class, Kane sighed deeply as he watched Rudy being led away by Ms. Esther.
"Michelle, Mina, what do you think I should do to get Rudy to sign a contract with me?"
“You’ve all seen his talent.”
"The Divine Seal is a rare light attribute, and its general magic talent is extremely high. It can even learn the Instant Step just by looking at me."
"I have a feeling that if I can sign a contract with him, my divine seal will definitely evolve!"
Upon hearing this, Michelle frowned.
"Kane, even if you ask me, I don't know."
"Rudy, well, I get the feeling he doesn't really want to get involved with other people."
Although she was certain that Rudy liked her, Michelle didn't plan to tell Kane.
What if Kane uses this relationship to control Rudy?
Michelle instinctively didn't want to see this happen.
After hearing Michelle's words, Kane had an even bigger headache.
"I came to the academy to make friends and increase the number of contracted members, but so far, I haven't made any progress at all. Is making friends really that difficult?"
Mina, however, has a different perspective.
After thinking for a moment, she rested her chin on her hand and suggested:
"Why don't you just ask Rudy if he's willing, Kane? After all, we've already been frank about your divine seal abilities, and all you need to do is sign an equal contract. I think Rudy will agree, since he's a very easy-going person."
"Also, Kane, you are, after all, the eldest prince of the empire and the future heir to the throne. As a member of the Mers family, Rudy will certainly be happy to build a good relationship with you."
Kane was somewhat tempted by these words.
Will he agree?
"How will you know if you don't try?" Mina laughed.
Although she and her sister Michelle look exactly alike, Mina is still the more cunning one.
“Okay, Mina, you’re right. How will we know if we can succeed if we don’t try? I’ll go ask the Rudy brothers right now.”
Kane immediately broke into an excited smile and ran off.
At this moment, Michelle looked at her sister, hesitant to speak.
Mina smiled.
"What, aren't you going to tell me yet, my sister?"
Have you forgotten that we are connected by telepathy?
"Could you please stop thinking about strange things? I get affected too."
At this point, it turned into complaints and teasing.
Michelle blushed and lowered her head. "I wasn't thinking anything strange."
"Still pretending?"
Seeing her sister's lack of honesty, Mina couldn't help but sigh, then reached out her fair hand and pinched her cheeks, pulling them apart.
"Tell me honestly, do you have some special feelings for Rudy? Otherwise, why wouldn't you want him to sign a contract with Kane?"
"Hmm..."
Michelle's body trembled, and her shoulders slumped.
As expected, you can't hide it from your sister.
Mina glanced at her sister's disappointed expression, opened her arms, and hugged her tightly, saying softly:
"What a silly little thing."
"Why think so much? From the moment we signed the contract with Kane, we could only stand on his side. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"Although it was only an equal contract, we all knew that Father also hoped that we could serve as the future king's consorts and uphold the family's honor."
“I know, sister.”
Michelle subconsciously pouted, "I don't have any special feelings for Rudy. I just feel a little embarrassed about how I targeted him before."
“Michelle told me everything.”
"Rudy's affairs at the Duke's mansion..."
"He helped me break the spell last time, but I didn't thank him properly. I suddenly hate myself."
Upon hearing this, Mina looked at her sister's expression with suspicion.
"Really?"
"Do you really only feel guilty towards him?"
In response, Michelle quickly replied:
"Of course it's true! I... I would never like it!"
The girl's tone was full of certainty.
After hearing this, Mina simply smiled and didn't press the matter further.
………
On the other side.
Esther took Rudy to Park Two of the Hanging Gardens.
Fresh flowers are still used as decorations here.
Walking on the pebble path in the park feels like stepping into a sea of flowers.
An enchanting fragrance wafts towards you.
It also gives people a romantic feeling.
The rooftop gardens are beautiful no matter where you are, and they seem perfect for a date.
As she walked, Esther suddenly stopped.
Her expression was somewhat conflicted.
Esther considered herself a person of her word.
After all, he was once a general in the imperial army.
A person cannot stand without integrity, so she values promises very much.
Since I've promised, I will definitely keep my word.
But how do I do it?
She's never experienced anything good.
Suddenly, I agreed to teach him what he called kissing practice.
Was I out of my mind?
Why did you agree?
"Ahem, um... Rudy, the scenery here is quite nice."
Esther blushed and brought up a topic.
Rudy, however, spoke very directly, like a straight man.
"It is indeed good. But if you, Ms. Esther, are trying to renege on your promise, I will not allow it."
"Did I say I was going to renege on my promise? Didn't I bring you here?"
Esther glared at him angrily.
The men in the army were terrified of him, yet this young boy in front of him didn't seem to care about his status or strength at all.
Rudy shrugged and calmly said:
"In that case, let's begin now."
"Hurry up, time is precious!"
As he spoke, he deliberately pouted and closed his eyes.
Esther couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"What's your hurry?"
"Can't you give me a little time to think it over?"
"Let me think about how to fart?"
"Do you want to die? I'll grant your wish! You brat, how dare you talk to me like that?"
Esther felt really angry.
Can't you show some respect for your mother?
"All right."
When Rudy heard her say that, he nodded and gave her a gentle smile.
He tiptoed and touched her cheek.
Esther's expression froze.
"Little... brat? You weren't going to..."
"That's enough. After all, you're my mentor. Although you always keep your word, I don't really like forcing people to do things they don't want to do."
After saying that, Rudy strode away.
Esther touched her cheek and suddenly laughed.
"What? This kid isn't so bad after all. He's actually quite gentle."
