Antonio was someone who moved based on how people scored on his personal standard.

�In that aspect, Cale Henituse gets a pass.�

Contrary to the rumors that he was trash, Cale had seemed quite noble-like when they met last year at the capital.

He also had an ancient power and fame.

�Most importantly, he is someone that the crown prince treasures.�

Someone the sly first prince treasures must be talented. Antonio had heard from his grandmother many times that, although Alberu had an innocent smile on his face, he was an extremely sly individual.

�The first prince is not an average person. Antonio, you will lose if you look down on him. Do you understand what your grandmother is trying to say?�

That was why Antonio had been looking forward to meeting with Cale.

Cale seemed to know Antonio�s thought as he reacted in a way that Antonio liked.

Cale had a confident yet respectful attitude as he shook Antonio�s hand.

�Young master Antonio Gyerre, it is an honor to meet you. I am happy to meet the family that guards the kingdom�s southwestern border.�

�No, it is my honor to meet someone from the Henituse family that protects the kingdom from the Forest of Darkness.�

Cale Henituse, the eldest son of the Henituse family, the strongest family in the leaderless Northeast region.

Antonio Gyerre, the heir to the Gyerre family, the leader of the Southwest region.

There were many gazes pointing toward them, however, the three knights who suddenly surrounded Cale made the others unable to hear what they were discussing.

Cale stealthily whispered to Antonio.

�I hope that we can make some time to chat over some drinks.�

�� A chat?�

Antonio�s eyes clouded over as his gaze moved toward Cale.

Cale responded back with a bright smile.

�Yes, a fun conversation.�

�It really will be a fun conversation. Only for me though.�

Cale noticed that the way Antonio was looking at him had slightly changed.

�Young master Cale, you are a bit different than I had heard.� JrNovels.com
