Rebirth: The Villainous Young Master Doesn't Want to Follow the Script Chapter 57: Rejected
***********
'This could be one of the possibilities why Rheina's mysterious death from the original tiline happened.'
Because those people knew her weakness.
Rheina Clandestine's role in the world plot of [Mystique Enchantress] wasn't that important but she was only ntioned because of Thesus Clandestine, forrly known as Thesus Yor, since he is one of the Crown Prince's people and managed to infiltrate the Clandestine clan and make it on his own.
Although Alois' position as the Crown Prince wouldn't be shaken since he is the first-born son from the current Empress and since the Empress' natal household is one of the well-known magician's households, from what Eclipse gathered within the system archive, Alois' greed knows no bounds.
Because he also wanted to have control over the clans in the Underworld Society and that's why he targeted the Clandestine clan and planted his spy there since the Clandestine clan was among the oldest assassin households and the ones who had much control within the Underground Society.
This information had been ntioned in the world plot of the volu 02 of [Mystique Enchantress] that's why Rheina's na only had been ntioned from that ti if Thesus was in the scene together with the Crown Prince.
'However, I won't let them have their own way!'
At least before Eclipse leave the Empire, the world-hopper would make sure to cripple at least one of the Crown Prince's wings then.
'Before the main storyline begins, it would be better to ssed up with him for a bit and to annoy the hell out of him as paynt for what he did to , whether from the previous tiline or this current one, I won't let this slide,'
Since from this day onwards, it will be weeks from then that the school year starts, and all Eclipse needed to do was to execute his escape using those tis he prepared himself to go back to school.
Or it will be much better to stage his own death though.
Eclipse looked at Rheina who was shaken by the re fact she had been tricked all along and Eclipse was sure that the assassin knew what she was doing even if she doubted about this whole spectacle but still, she keeps going on.
'Of course, she would risk anything just to save her only blood-related family and that was none other than her little brother, the one who got infected by the Ardus Syndro.'
Ardus Syndro…
There is only a brief description about this disease in the world plot of [Mystique Enchantress] because of a certain village that the heroine and the other male leads happened to stumble upon it.
From the heroine's viewpoint, the heroine [Lorraine] saw how the villagers suffers from so cruel disease that even her bloodline powers, wouldn't be able to just cure this disease.
'The Ardus Syndro was said to be a curse originated from the Gods as the first symptoms of this disease are within the patient's eyes.'
A black-red triangular shape that was etched on the center of the person's eyes who got infected by the Ardus Syndro and there were also black lines appeared within their veins as if they were crawling inside within their bodies.
That's the sign that a person had an Ardus Syndro.
And the only cure for that was none other than the [Dawn of Tears].
That's why Eclipse stated that the [Dawn of Tears] he had collected inside the Hall of Legacy is not completed yet because the only thing there was nothing, but an incomplete formula and Silver confird to him that the incomplete formula is the genuine one.
He didn't take the formula but instead copy the formula or much better, Eclipse used the feature of the system interface to make a copy of that incomplete formula and save it to his archive as he would written down and analyze the other parts that's missing.
"I just said that you fell into their trap, Rheina but that doesn't an you have caught up."
Rheina snapped as she looked at the young boy besides her; "What do you an?"
Eclipse looked at her and smirked.
"It will be a better idea for them to think you have fallen into their trap and let their guard down, what do you think?"
...
...….
...…
< PRESENT >
"Do you have everything you need? Clothes? Shoes? Blankets? Underwear? Hmmm…. what else? Oh, wait a minute…. Your allowance? Would that be enough?"
'The f*cking hell this person doing?! You act like so mother hen to his baby chicks, you pretentious b*stard!'
« Host, it seems like the first young master suddenly beca your mother-figure instead of being your brother. »
'No need to f*cking remind that! You have told that a couple of tis already!'
What happened right now was… Eclipse is preparing himself to leave the manor as the school year at Lun Academy would be starting soon.
The academy isn't located at the Crux city of Stellarus Empire, which is the capital city, but the academy is situated at the southernmost part of the empire, away from the capital city's noble and royal influence.
'Which is a pretty good thing since those children with high status who thinks they could do whatever they wanted within the academy premises; they were all wrong.'
Although those children couldn't exert their family household's influence inside the academy, they could create so group for themselves and that would boost their own influence inside the academy.
'In other words, the academy is likely a place to create and set foot hold on their political influences with everybody else.'
"Hey, Ezekiel, are you alright? Or you don't want to attend this year's academy? Just tell and I'll pull off everything."
Eclipse snapped from his thoughts when he heard what the First Young Master said, and he imdiately shook off his head and hurriedly answered.
"N-no! I an…. I-I want to go! I want to attend this year's academy!"
'And besides, I don't want to stay in this manor either! Just get the hell out of my sight, you pretentious b*stard!'
The world-hopper didn't know what made the First Young Master to act like so sort of a doting elder brother to his younger brother and if this had happened in his first life, he would feel happy because he thinks they had acknowledged his existence within the family.
'However, I'm no longer that naïve and affectionate-starved Ezekiel Zephyr Chevalier that they could manipulate using these kinds of tactics. I have grown tired of people's affection as it doesn't matter to anymore.'
Besides, he no longer see himself as a human being with emotions the mont he was frad and betrayed by these people.
No matter how much they wanted to reclaim themselves and act like a family to him, for Eclipse, it doesn't matter anymore.
"I-it's enough…. I-I have enough…. F-first young master. T-thank you for your benevolence."
Of course, he needs to act a little bit timid compared to his previous tiline since he was a victim of [assault] and for a child like him who was the center of this so-called scandal, he beca timid and almost mute-like just to let the people around him that he still couldn't get over of his so-called trauma.
Besides, going to the academy is just an excuse for him to run away from this place as he didn't want to involve himself in this world and not only that, but his forr designation role as the minor villain are also no more and he bet there would be others who would replace his role.
'I once check the system archive once I got back from the manor few days ago and there are still no update about the new characters that would take up the missing roles of the sixth male lead and one minor villain at the early volu.'
The new school year at Lun Academy would start soon and Eclipse didn't know how the world plot would progress since there were still two missing character roles that wasn't filled yet but that wasn't his business anyway.
Eclipse saw the First Young Master's hurt expression plastered on his face when Eclipse said those words, but he could care less about it.
'He had no rights to have that expression since it's all their fault anyway. No matter how hard they tried to correct their mistakes, my trust with them as a family are no more.'
Eclipse saw on his peripheral vision the other maids and butlers who were loading his baggage inside the carriage but for soone who's perceptive within his surroundings, those other servants had the nerve to listened to their conversations.
'And what? They're planning to report this matter to their respective masters? Tsk! How amusing!'
The only person who sent him off was none other than the First Young Master, Altron.
As for the Second Young Master Harrison, he rarely visits the manor since he got his own peerage rewarded by the Emperor himself and have a land on his own to rule over. Not only that, but he is also a Knight Captain in his own squad division.
