Rebirth: The Villainous Young Master Doesn't Want to Follow the Script

Chapter 110: A Foreboding Warning

***********

Orexthon.

That's the name of the hunting group under the Crown Prince's faction and according to the information that was provided for him coming from one of his spies, that group is similar to the Stellarus Empire's Sympherux but the difference of this two is that Orexthon are nothing but mad-hunting killer dogs who only followed their master's command and nothing else.

No matter what kind of command, as long as the Crown Prince issued an order, the Orexthon would fulfill their master's command without any question.

'According to the reports, three years ago during the time Ezekiel had disappeared, there were traces of the Orexthon group looking for him that time and that's why I concluded that the Crown Prince truly is involved in his little brother's demise!'

He thought and clenched his fist when he remembered those reports from before. As much as he wanted to present those reports during the trial back then, but the Marquis wanted to take matters into his own hands and punished those monsters who took away his little brother's life!

'And now, after three years and the Crown Prince is reported to be dead on his bedroom?! What kind of nonsense was this?!'

For that moment, Altron didn't believe the news Harrison brought over but he needed to hear the full story coming from his second little brother and decided to what course of action to take.

'If the news about that b*stard were true then, it means that Orexthon were involved in this mess, and I don't believe that b*stard would just die like that!'

Harrison, on one hand, looked at his elder brother and noticed some of his expressions that he usually caught on him and from that point, he could guess a thing or two on what his elder brother Marquis was thinking about.

'I also found it absurd about the news that I caught on back at the Royal Palace and I couldn't confirm if the news about that b*stard son of a b*tch is true or not as I couldn't get into the Crown Prince's Palace that easily.'

Also, if that news were true then, he bet that the Royal family wouldn't announce this issue in the public and would just come up with some absurd excuse about the Crown Prince's status since up until now, the Crown Prince is still in his solitary confinement for three years.

As he thought of that, the young Count suddenly remembered his behavior from earlier and he looked at his elder brother and was about to apologize for his sudden appearance and lack of decorum when his elder brother just waved his hand and said; "No need for that. I know that you're always like that and it will never change though. I am quite used to your energetic eccentricity since we were young."

If there were no other visitors around, Harrison would just be himself like what his elder brother stated earlier but since there is an unfamiliar person within the room, Harrison just nodded at his elder brother and went over to the other sofa to take his place there.

As he settled in, Harrison took a deep breath and said; "Okay, before we start, I'll only say this once; Whatever you hear or learn from this room, will stay inside and keep it to yourselves and never share this to anyone. Understand?"

After he said those words, he looked at the four people with him and looked at them one by one and his gazed at the unfamiliar person that he learned that his name was Francis Aiden Kashaya.

Actually, Harrison isn't the type of person who would just share an information with anyone, with the exception of his two siblings, of course.

Lorraine Fowler is a special case since his elder brother took her in and become the young woman's guardian, pretty much to say is that Lorraine Fowler is now affiliated with the Chevaliers, both to the Count and Marquis (Grand Duke) households.

'Also, I won't be surprised if there is another development for this two though.'

He thought and he looked at the unfamiliar person inside the office and if this was from before, he wouldn't say something and would demand for this person to be outside for a moment because Harrison is the type of person who would be suspicious with everyone around him, and he just wanted to be cautious.

However, his elder brother introduced this person to him and for the record, this Francis guy is somewhat related to the Headmaster of Lumen Academy and the young Count knew the Headmaster pretty much.

Since his elder brother vouched for this guy then, Harrison would compromise and try to get to know this person.

"Of course. Do you take me for an idiot to speak this matter with anyone else?"

Harrison snapped from his thoughts when he heard what his elder brother said and smiled because he knew that his elder brother would say that.

Felicity hummed as she said; "That would be understandable. Also, whenever you hear something is already treated as an unspoken rule within the noble society and I know pretty much of that."

Harrison clicked his tongue as he smirks because of his little sister's words, and she is quite right about that.

His little sister is quite veteran and had learned things from her own and no one else. She is truly a role model for her fellow peers within her generation. After all, she wouldn't be Lady Marchioness for nothing.

The young Count looked over at Lorraine Fowler who seemed couldn't get over from what she heard, and Harrison knew that even though Lorraine is somewhat lack of knowledge about the noble society, she is pretty clever, and Harrison knew that she won't say a word about this matter.

"I don't know what to say but you don't have to worry about, Count Chevalier. My lips are sealed."

Even though her thoughts are now quite chaotic because of this sudden news and wanted to ask the Count for further information to clarify things but it's for the best to wait for the Count to explain things and Lorraine just calm herself first then.

As for the last person, Francis, just frowned and crossed his arms around his chest and said; "Well, I'm all in. Of course, although you might not know me that much but I, swear upon thee, on the soul of my blade; would keep my lips sealed."

After that, a sudden bright translucent form appeared within Francis' left chest after he enchant those words that makes the people inside the room looked at the young man with eyes widen in shock because they never expected him to make an oath and it imprinted to his left chest where his heart located.

"W-wait! W-what was that?!"

Felicity is the one who ask the young man and Francis just shrugged off his shoulder and said nonchalantly; "Just some oath spell, that's all."

"What do you mean, that's all?! Don't just do some reckless thing, you moron!"

Lorraine scolded the young man who seemed didn't fazed as he just looked back at the woman with a blank stare and Lorraine just sighed because he knew what kind of person Francis was.

'Also, that type of oath magic he perform isn't something that is common in this worldline and from what I know, it's a unique type of magic that wasn't even from the records back at the academy.'

Lorraine knew that Francis was a unique type of person from the start but still, her instincts told her that Francis wasn't a threat but an important ally so she would believe her gut feeling and nothing else.

'However, these oaths would do nothing to me though. I just need to make that statement and perform that trick for them not to worry about and the information that I will get from here, I need to find a way to deliver this to Eclipse.'

Francis thought as he smiled at them, and he noticed the second young master's reaction after he made an oath and that could give the young Count some assurance.

Harrison didn't know how to react to Francis' sudden bind an oath to himself and because of what Francis did, Harrison sighed as he proceeded to tell the news that he had gathered from the Palace since everything right now had been settled.

"The news about the Crown Prince's sudden demise is not being made in public for now and I bet that they would announce about his sudden declined of health if someone questioned about the Crown Prince's status since he is in solitary confinement for three years already."

Harrison started to explain and Felicity frown as she asked; "But how are you sure about the Crown Prince's death?"

The Lady Marchioness couldn't think of any reason if ever the truth about the Crown Prince's sudden death because she thinks that it's too ridiculous for that to happened.

And the scene of the crime happened to be inside the Crown Prince's personal bedroom, of all the places that could have happened to him?!

Harrison knew how absurd the situation was right now because even he couldn't think of any reason on how this could happen.

Besides, for the past three years, the Crown Prince was never reported sneaking out of his Palace and whenever there is a Royal banquet in the Palace, the Crown Prince was present but with a tight security on his side and his movement were limited at all.

"Do you guys think that this is some kind of warning or something?"
