Chapter 529 - 13.27
"Matthew, do you want to see a magic trick?
Matthew was petrified when he heard that Little Jean wanted to do another magic trick.
"N—No, Young Master, please don’t do another magic trick. I don’t need to see it!" Matthew tried to stop Little Jean, afraid that something would happen to the Young Master of Eau Saumont.
If Little Jean fainted here after using magic, then Archduke Maximillien would blame him, and he might be banned for visiting Little Jean in the future.
"Aww... Matthew is no fun...."
Little Jean pouted. He looked disappointed that Matthew didn’t want to see his magic trick anymore. But he understood because he was scolded by his Big brother last night for doing that kind of magic trick.
"Then, does Matthew have a magic trick? Jean wants to see!" Little Jean said.
Matthew paused. He stared at the innocent Little Jean, who knew nothing about magic but had mysterious yet fascinating magic of his own.
There was something, a secret that he hid for a while. He found out about it when he was four years old. Of course, when he saw Raphael showing his magic in front of Little Jean, he got jealous and wanted to do the same.
But... there was just one problem...
Matthew shook his head, "No, Young Master. I don’t have any magic. Magic is only a talent for nobles and a very select few peasants. Unfortunately, I’m not one of those select few. I’m just a regular peasant without magic affinity."
