Recap
Gill seems to be not as stunned as I was, it is like he was expecting for this moment to come.
=========================
When black carriage's door was open. It revealed a high-class noble walking out accompanied by his guards, which he had brought along with him. He had a strict and domineering aura that surrounds him from head to toe.
'He resembles a character in 'Why Not my Prince?'. Who was it? I can't seem to put my finger on it...'
The tall man was wearing an expensive trench coat that was black in colour. When I tried to observe his face, he releases that alarming aura once again. "Are you Aust?" he spoke with a gruff voice.
When he said that, the transparent blue page chimes with a ding as this was written on the page, "Finally obtained a name; Aust!"
"Y-yes," I spoke in a faint voice yet it was crystal clear. I finally got a clear glimpse of the tall man, he had constant narrow eyes as if he could see through anything, thick eyelashes and fuller and symmetrical lips. His high cheekbones and chiselled jaw look as if he could cut anyone with them.
I was awestruck and kept looking up at him, then something hits me 'He was the villain's father in 'Why Not my Prince?' no wonder he looked so familiar.' In the story, when Aust Clades was young, his father would pick him up from the wooden cabin. Later, Aust's father ends up hiring many professors to educate Aust to be the next heir of the Clades house. When the older twin, Avin Clades found out about his father's plan, he was envious. Avin decided to scheme to eradicate Aust from being the heir. Avin got close to Aust to just betray him. At that moment Aust could not keep up with that many betrayals, especially not from Avin, his twin brother. As Aust tried many ways to get closer to Avin, Avin always disappears leaving Aust alone. Aust then decided it was easier to be the villain in Avin's eyes and take all the burden he didn't want.
If I remember correctly Aust was a hidden capture target that was helping the villainess.
'Though, I am not going to follow my fate, am I? Gyrent told me to just be here so...' The man spoke with a smile, "Good, I came to take you back home." I was reluctant to do so, however, Gill whispered to me to not defy him as he could sense my uneasiness.
The guards guide me to the huge black carriage with Gill behind me.

When we arrived at my new lodging, I could see all the servants standing outside with a respectful bow. As the horses trot closer, I notice the beautiful mansion that could accommodate many employees that work here as it was massive.
When the carriage halt, the door of the carriage open. The tall man who sat across from us stood up first, then head towards the door. I was anxious but quickly hide my little fear of numerous human stare.
When I was out of the carriage, the tall man who is my father, started to judge me. He walks in front of me as I walk behind him with Gill. Suddenly he spoke, "You're Gill I suppose? You shall be his butler from now onwards." Gill looked at him, "Thank you, master Clades." one could not tell what he was feeling, however, I knew he was extremely happy.
My father and I parted our ways once we step into the mansion. The head butler and maid came to introduce themselves warmly when both Gill and I was left at the entrance by my father. "Young master, I will lead you to your room!" the head maid said with enthusiasm.
As we walk towards my room, I saw many colourful crystals floating near the walls which lights up the corridor. The head maid just walks silently while I look around the mansion. There were many paintings and portraits of the Clades household as we passed by many doors. When we reach a door that has white, the head maid stop, "Young master, we have reached your room. The master has assigned you a few maids to assist you. Oh! Young master can call me Annie!" she spoke with the same warmth as someone I used to know...
"Thank you, Annie." as I steadfastly walk into the bedroom open by Gill.
I look around the room, I saw a Queen size bed that fits in the room which surprised me as it was bigger than the cabin and my room in my previous life.
I walk in, I felt a good chill down my spine as I have not felt so comfortable in a long time. I look at Gill who already closes the door behind us. Gill suggested, "Young master, do you want to wash up first?" I nodded and head towards the bathroom, led by Gill, connected to the bedroom. 'So luxurious...'
When Gill opens the door of the bathroom, I was startled by the size of the bathroom. "The bathroom is at least as big as our cabin..." I mumbled which Gill heard. Gill smiled as he began to wash me when I strip out of my attire.
As he was washing my hair I decided to ask Gill, " Gill do you think Alfred will be astounded if I summon him here?" Gill stops washing my hair for a second before continuing, "I think he will be greatly nonplussed. Though, I don't recommend to summon him with many eyes on us."
I heard what Gill said as I gradually feel the darkness overtaking my vision.
