Chapter 17: Ihan Instructor (3)
The one who had blurted out the rude remark was none other than Damian, the second son of Count Paulette. He had thought he was merely muttering to himself, but his voice rang out louder than he expected, possibly amplified by the silence around him.
However, the volume of his voice wasn’t the main issue right now.
The problem was that everyone had heard him insult someone—a knight, no less.
‘Damn, my life at the Academy is....’
He realized that his image had taken a hit from the very beginning, and his stomach churned.
Insulting a knight?
That didn’t bother him too much. After all, it was just a demoted knight, wasn’t it? The man couldn’t retaliate just because Damian had insulted him. Unless the knight had any plans of challenging the Paulette family, which was unlikely.
“Was it you?”
“...What?”
The knight on the platform spoke to him with certainty, and Damian, taken off guard for a second, responded—
“‘What’? Who the hell are you talking to, you disrespectful bastard?”
The next moment, Damian’s vision went black.
