Whenever it comes to Akito, Chauncey unexpectedly lost his cool and calm attitude. While he would lose calm when Victor bothered him too, it was different.
Even though he acts silly like this and a fool, the sea-colored man owed this person his life. He saw life as something more valuable, something more precious than what the average individual thinks of it. His old teacher told him that by the time he was born; royalty was already become extinct due to all of them being hunted down.
That's why he owed Akito person his life. At first, Akito insisted that he did not need any thanks. In fact, when they first met, he was rather cold and always played it rather cool. Chauncey was okay with that; in fact, it suited him. Yet even though he said he didn't need any thanks. Akito had let him follow him around.
He owed his life to him, and that's why Chauncey, no matter what the small task, did it all for Akito. That's why he didn't hesitate at all agreeing with it. Akito's ridiculous idea of him becoming a member of the military police too. He was well aware that the maroon colored haired boy was already somewhat famous then. But as a member of the underworld. The change of heart somewhat surprised Chauncey, yet he didn't hesitate to agree.
Perhaps that was a mistake of his, not only does he rarely have time to come home. But when he does, his younger brothers scorned him for not taking his position seriously. Besides that, the person he respected is long gone now. He would find himself often in silly situations that would make anyone laugh. Despite his anger and frustration towards Akito for changing so much. Chauncey found that every single time he came home, and they insulted Akito, he couldn't tolerate it at all.
"Chauncey, what are you thinking?"
He sighs and flicks the next page of his book, "The Past".
"Hmm, that's quite deep."
Ah, it's probably that reason why he always ends up defending this person no matter what happens. Because even though he's changed so much like this. Once in a while, he would end up like this ā the same look in those eyes like before.
His answer then was --- Chauncey's thoughts broke off when the doors opened, revealing a petite girl with flaxen, shoulder-length bobbed hair. A pink heart hair clip attached to her hair, a pale brown long mid sleeve top that showed off her shoulders and black shorts. "Sorry to bother you two. But like, when that person goes on a rampage, is there anything that can be done to stop her? She's kinda destroying loads of trees".
At that comment, he bolts up and shuts his book, "You fool get off my arm already."
"Why not just leave it be all ready? Mimi's been stressed out ever since we got back..." Is he crazy? Even if it is their house now, in the end, it's still public property on the grounds. Victor trails before continuing, "Besides that, Iroha-chan, is it okay for you to be staying this long?"
The caramel-colored hair girl had indeed been with them since Kagoshima. Its been a week since the tour ended, and yet the girl has remained here. Yasuhara Iroha, the daughter of a wealthy merchant.
Iroha nods, "Yeah. Currently, Lady Mimi is being targeted by loads of people, right? And it seems like the military police are acting wishing washy about everything. That's why I was told to watch over the two for a little while longer." she trails off and laughs lightly, "That and I really do want to see what a school that specializes in that is like."
Victor laughs, "It sounds like you have the motivation. Why don't you help out too, Iroha-chan?"
"Really?"
Chauncey sighs, these two are getting carried away with this. However, its an opportunity. He slipped away and walked outside. Iroha, he was quite surprised to see that she had enrolled in their world last year. Anyone who's anyone knew who the girl was. Long before she even became a renowned actress, she was already long making a name for herself. Which is why when she transferred in last year he was quite surprised to see her there.
Someone of her caliber could attend a completely different school. A place with better standards, yet she chose there. When he questioned the reason why she merely smiled. 'You know Sir Chauncey, there's someone there that's quite interesting. I've been given orders by a certain person to watch over her'.
An interesting person.
Chauncey had kept his eyes open for someone like that. But he didn't find any. At least it was someone that fell past what he deemed as interesting.
While that woman was peculiar, Chauncey sensed nothing special about her. Now the one who stood out was Setsura; it surprised him. To him, she seemed like a normal person. A normal girl with no particular qualities. Yes, she was quite the beauty. But her personality didn't exactly fit that beauty she had. Indeed he was horrified to find out yesterday that she was the daughter of a wealthy family. But what shocked him the most then was that ā seeing such a look on the girl's eyes.
That's not a look a young lady should have at all. Such a clouded gaze, he wonders why... Yes, she shouldn't look like that, nor should she act in such a rash manner. Yet Chauncey went along with the girls every whim. Why is that? Chauncey placed his hand on his forehead. The last two or so days worth of interactions with that woman has driven him crazy.
Victor smiled, "Now then, let me tell you the reason why I am here today," he took out two tickets. "What do you think these are?"
Chauncey immediately understood and frowned, "No."
"Now now, Chauncey."
"I will not see that woman today." Today was his day off; he would not allow that annoying woman to ruin his day.
Victor rolled his eyes, "But Akito is there too. You can spy on them."
