Hearing Cruzâ voice, the temp ass and the older man twitched with a jolt.
It seems they didnât know she was ruler yet, but they knew she was tough.
Since Cruz was here, I let go of the temp ass and the older man.
I could leave this to Cruz.
ăWhat right do you think you have to put us in that pit like you did yesterday!?ă
ăHave you no idea HOW RUDE YOU ARE?!ă
ăBecause we still havenât forgiven you for YOUR rudeness yesterday!ă
They still didnât know she was ruler and were lecturing her.
They thought she was some kind of thug that was protecting the death cult.
She didnât answer them, but just stood looking at them with an icy stare, and said,
ăYou twoâŚyou donât seriously act like this everywhere you go, do you?ă
ăWhat?! Itâs of no matter to you!ă
ăYou donât act like this, do you?ă
ăWhat do you mean?ă
ăTry to get women by saying youâre high classâŚă
ăOh, that? What do you care?ă
I could see Cruz begin to seethe in anger.
Even Femm was surprised at this.
Femm was tough, but seeing Cruz, Femm could feel the strength of her rage.
However, the temp ass didnât feel that at all. He was oblivious.
ăListen. We are high class. You low-lifes canât just push us around.ă
Hearing this, Timiâs face scowled at them.
Timi was born a royal as well. Thatâs why she was angry now.
ăI want your parents to see you. How did they raise you, anyway?!ă
ărgyaaaaă
It wasnât just Timi, but Shiggy too.
ăThis has nothing to do with my PARENTS!ă
ăI think it does. You get your status from your father, after all.ă
ăWha?!ă
Timiâs logic was unassailable by the kid, so he just gulped angrily.
ăDoes your father think like you?ă
ăMy fatherâs just a fool that tries to treat the low-lifes fairly. Heâs part of the old way of thinking. You canât be kind to loafers like the underclasses!ă
ăIf thatâs the new way of thinking, then I canât allow it.ă
Cruz was quieting her anger down, but you could still feel it in her words.
The temp ass was still completely ignorant of it. He looked at her as if it were no matter.
However, Femm started to tremble.
I patted Femm to calm it down.
Then Timi said, with a kinder tone,
ăThe higher classes have their duties as well. You should understand that. You know that youâre an embarrassment to them?ă
ărgyahhă
ăDonât you dare lecture me!ă
Hearing Timi talk in that kind tone made her even scarier.
I think it was good that she was lecturing him though.
Then Timi looked to Cruz,
ăI think you should relieve this temporary assistant of his duties. Heâs clearly unable to fulfill them, anyway.ă
ăWha?! How dare you!ă
ăYou still havenât noticed?ă
Then Timi let out a long sigh.
ăryaaa.ă
And Shiggy did as well.
Just then, one of Cruzâ aides from the manor, the oldest, ran over to us.
He probably could sense the volatile rage that was emanating from Cruz.
He had remained a distance away, watching what was going on. Very attentive.
But because of his age, he wasnât quick to react. It took him a while to make his way over.
ăPant, huff. Your highness, what is the matter? Have they done something wrong?ă
It was obvious he was talking to Cruz.
If you spelled out the full meaning of his words, we was saying,
ăMadam Marquis Conradine, what is the matter? Has this idiot of a temporary assistant done something wrong?ă
Even so, the temp ass still didnât get it.
The temp ass then replied, angrily,
ăThis foolish person deserves to be WHIPPED!ă
The temp ass was probably thinking that the term âYour highnessâ was directed to him.
The kid hadnât inherited any title yet. So there was no âyour highnessâ to him.
And there were several people there that qualified for the term.
The Baroness Shiggy. The Marquis Cruz.
The Viscounts Yureena, Timi, and I.
The only two that didnât realize who he was addressing as âyour highnessâ was the kid and his bodyguard.
Even so, they were mistaken thinking the aide was referring to them.
And it was embarrassing.
ăWhaa?!ă
The aide then turned to the temp ass and glared at him.
ăYou bastaâŚă
The kid was about to open his mouth again, but the aide cut him off.
ăMarquis Cruz, did this assistant do something untoward?ă
This time there was no abbreviation in his polite question.
Cruz smiled at the aide.
ăI guess we canât be tolerant of this fool this time.ă
ăUnderstood. What shall we do?ă
ăHuh? Whatâs going on?ă
The temp ass was suddenly flustered, but Cruz ignored him.
Timi smiled and said,
ăWe should relieve him of his duties, and then take some time to think about what we shall do with him.ă
ărgyaahă
ăIf we give him any real duties, heâll just be a nuisance.ă

Timi was angry, and yet smiling the whole time.
Shiggy was just angry.
ăYouâre right. But I wonât relieve him.ă
Cruz said with a smile.
The temporary assâs face seemed to take on a slight look of relief.
