Don’s eyes widened when he heard what she said; he looked at Terra, confusion all over his face. "Lady Terra, are you trying to say this child is the reason we ca here?" he asked, his voice carrying a hint of worry and panic.
She looked at him, a smile on her face. "Of course, or do you not rember when Lady Rose said the person we will co to see will surprise us?" She turned to look at Raze. "I see no greater surprise than the fact that this young man is actually the one we have co to see," she said.
"You... you can’t be serious." Don stuttered. He looked at Raze, and Raze gave him his signature smile. "Hello, my na is Raze Grimhold, fourth son of the Grimhold family." His smile remained on his face as he spoke.
Don listened to Raze and fear gripped his heart. The person that he had been utterly rude to was the person that he had co to see? This couldn’t be happening.
"Hahaha," Don let out a nervous chuckle. "I’m sorry for my previous rudeness, young master Raze." He started speaking, but Raze cut him short.
"Please just have your seat, Sir Don. Let’s have a normal discussion."
’He is letting seat? Haha, a kid is still a kid and when there is a chance to make big money, they’ll jump on it no matter how rude I am.’ Don thought, forgetting about the fact that Raze had just shown him his sharp mouth a few minutes ago. He really thought soone with that sort of mouth was gullible and weak.
"Thank you," he said and sat back down, even proceeding to recline into the chair and relax. Raze smiled seeing this.
"Uhm, sorry for keeping you all waiting. I already know Lady Terra and Don," he said, consciously not putting any honorifics before Don’s na, but Don was too busy relaxing to even notice. "So can I know the both of you?" he said, looking at the remaining two.
The buff man got up first, and on his way he flexed his muscles; they pressed against his clothes like they wanted to rip them.
"My na is Ken, second in command of the Black Tiger Adventure Party." the man said, a smug expression on his face as he spoke.
’The Black Tiger, they appeared in the story, a high-level adventurer party. There is not much on them beyond the ti they help the hero, though,’ Raze thought.
"It is nice to et you," Raze replied.
The pale-looking scholar went up last. "I am Lewis Ventri, an assistant lecturer and a personal assistant to Lady Green from the Raven Academy. I’m here to remind you of the entrance exam of the Raven Academy, you along with your brother." He said, adjusting his glasses and then sitting back down.
"Wait, I have to go for the entrance exam?" Raze asked.
"Not necessarily, as you are a special case, you can skip the exams as a whole and simply start in the academy. But the sester is starting a day after the exam is concluded, and even if you’ll not be staying in the academy, you still need ti to co and register." he explained.
"Another thing is that Lady Green said I should tell you that she wanted you to co as well for the entrance examination; I don’t know why exactly, but that is what she said," he added.
Raze leaned back into the chair. "All right, that’s fine. I’m sure I can make enough ti to go," he said.
Don heard that and frowned slightly. "Young master Raze, you might be a genius and have invented so new stuff, but that doesn’t an you can blow off soone like Lady Green and the academy exams.
Even the elite of the academy haven’t done that; you need to reduce your cockiness, it might co back to haunt you," he said, trying to sound like a concerned person. Raze turned and looked at him for a few seconds, then finally spoke. "Lady Terra, Sir Ken, I am guessing that your own reason for being here has sothing to do with the products I have right?" Raze asked.
"Indeed, your perfus are the best I have ever seen, and they cost remarkably less than what is found in Ravenhold or anywhere in the kingdom," she spoke, despite keeping her calm, soft smile. There was a hint of excitent as she spoke.
"Indeed, I took a bath with the soap you have and I have to say I was blown away," Ken said. "My n and people I know will surely want them.
I wasn’t ant to be a part of this group, after all, there is no way I can buy from you in bulk, but I still wanted to make so connections, hahahaha." He said and let out a hearty laugh.
Don took it as his turn to start speaking after those two had spoken. "And I, as a rchant, want to sell your products in my—"
"Stop talking," Raze suddenly cut him short.
"What?" Don asked, confused.
"I said stop talking. I didn’t ask for your opinion on the issue and you were never part of the discussion." Raze said before interlocking his fingers and leaning forward. He looked Don right in the eye while the others watched, wanting to see what would happen.
"You ca in here trying to throw your weight around; I find that a very bad impression and, honestly, I’m not interested in doing business with you. I do not know why Mrs. Green would give recomndations to soone like you," Raze said.
At this point, Don had had enough. "You brat, do you even know who I am? Do you know my influence and what I can do? I can ruin your entire life and that of your family," he roared.
"You said what?" Raze asked, looking the man right in the eye. "You’ll destroy my family? Hahaha, I didn’t know they made fat clowns; you should be a jester for the Royal Family," Raze said, his signature grin forming on his face.
