Chapter 134: [Bonus - ] The Star’s Flower (2)
Radia Mallarc.
I found out about him way before I met him for the second time. It wasn’t hard. He was the sole direct heir of Althrea’s biggest enterprised, the descendant of Althrea Mallarc herself.
And of course, the moment I knew who he was, I also knew how different we were. How far away I was from him.
No, this wasn’t a story about a prince and a pauper. As the son of a general, I could say I had enough status to confidently say we lived in the same world.
That, however, meant nothing.
Because I knew the Mallarc detested the military.
It wasn’t something that was widely known to the public, but an open secret among the high society. Rather than animosity, it was just a cold relationship. Still, it meant that as a son of Eastern Federation’s General, I would be put at the very end of the spectrum among people in who Radia Mallarc might have an interest.
And Radia Mallarc, as it was, had nothing he was interested in, in the first place.
Such was the problem with someone whose life had been perfect since birth. Wealth, power, freedom--he had it all. Some petty people would say the only flaw Radia had was his plain face; not ugly, not pretty, just average. But could that even be considered a flaw? With his striking crimson hair and piercing crimson eyes, people still froze in his presence.
Be it because of his status or alluring charm, he had the power and ability to obtain anything he wanted in this world. He lived in such an easy mode that he got easily bored.
With a flash of his gaze, he could easily get someone on their knees doing his bidding. With a whisper of command, with a snap of fingers, with a wisp of a smile, everything was within his grasp.
