"Who am I?"
Vlad almost took a step back and gasped. He made sure that he woke up very early today and prepared himself as usual, but he's still surprised. 'What happened to the young master? Did he have a change of heart?' he thought to himself, still speechless.
Everything that was happening today was weird. No, only his young master is acting strange. Vlad scanned the male in front of him. From his hair down to his toe, he was indeed the young master of the Ross family. "Young master, Can't you really remember your name?" he asked with a hesitant look on his face.
The male just remained dazed and didn't repeat the question anymore.
Vlad then bowed and did the introduction. "You are Liechael Ross, the second son of the Ross Clan. Your parents owned 5 big companies and 2 prestigious schools." He said it with full pride.
'Liechael?' The male thought.
So he had the same name as before, but the difference is he was in a teenage boy's body. He didn't even know this boy. He wanted to ask more questions, but his butler butted in again.
"Young master, please be ready. You only have 1 hour to finish your breakfast and prepare for school, please hurry," Vlad reminded him.
Liechael looked at him for a second before turning to the door that was opened by Vlad. He followed Vlad down the stairs. The house was big and elegant, everything was neat and in order. As soon as they reached the edge of the stairs, lined up, maids bowed their heads and greeted him. "Good morning, young master!"
Dumbfounded, the male nodded his head in response. After that, his butler guided him to a long wooden table with 12 seats. At the end of it was a woman in her middle age, wearing a white suit with a light brown coat on top. Shoulder length grey hair and brown eyes. There was a newspaper in front of her beside her teacup. She lifted her cup and glanced at Liechael. "Good morning, Chael," she greeted.
'Chael?' the male mumbled inside his thoughts before looking at Vlad, who was standing beside his chair. The butler looked at him and let his lips form the word—nickname. Means that it was his nickname.
"Good morning, Aunt Lucielle," Liechael greeted back. He was still not sure of what he was doing, so he decided to act small and simple for now. He didn't realize that it would lead the woman to surprise. She never heard his nephew call her in such a manner before. This is the first time. She twitched her lips and parted her eyes away from the newspaper she was reading. Lucielle wanted to ask her nephew, but just gave him a quick glance.
Then two maids approached the male's table and served his food. It was a set of bacon, fried egg, and lettuce on the side with a sauce. Liechael looked at it for a while after the maid smiled at him. He didn't hesitate to pick up the fork and knife to eat. No wonder he maintained his body because of the proper food he was eating.
Lucielle from the head of the table, once again peeked beside the newspaper she was holding. She observed her nephew ate with a proper table manner. Her forehead ceased as she squinted her eyes for a minute. Lucielle was also wondering. His 'Chael' was acting strange today.
Usually, her nephew will put his one leg on the table and eat like a prideful wolf. He will also set the lettuce away because he didn't like to follow his dietary system. But now, all of it has changed.
His aunt threw a gaze at Vlad, who was also looking back at her in secret. Both shrugged their shoulders in surprise before looking away.
Lucielle recalled what happened yesterday. Her nephew was the president of their class. In the afternoon, before going home and waiting for their driver to fetch him; Liechael saw some juniors trying to save a cat from the branch of the tree. Since her nephew was taller than them, Liechael climbed the branch. He succeeded in saving the cat until it was too late for him to realize the weak branch he was stepping on.
Liechael fell from the tree and hit his head on the hard ground. They are thankful that he had no injury. After that quick checkup, her nephew fell asleep and woke up being like this today. The male was always doing what he wanted without even giving attention to the consequences, but now he was like a perfect son.
After eating his breakfast, Liechael prepared himself to go to the school he's enrolled at. The side of their mansion was a wide and big parking lot containing 5 cars. 'Just how rich is this kid?' he thought when a black limousine with medium size honked in front of him. Vlad opened the door for him, so he immediately took the ride.
The breezy scent of the car freshener invaded his nostrils. The car was wide, with six seats. He thought that Lucielle would go with him, but ended up taking another car with her personal driver. Because, just like his aunt, he also has a personal driver.
"Young master, please fasten your seatbelt," Vlad worriedly reminded him before the car started to move on its way. The male followed his butler and stayed still in his seat. He was a bit nervous to face the new environment waiting for him.
While the car was on its way, Liechael remained silent. He looked outside the window with his thoughts still running through his mind. He still couldn't believe that he was reincarnated into a different world. Then a side of him felt heavy. The feeling that he wanted to forget after that night slowly came back to him.
Somehow, if he was given another life and another chance; he wanted to use it to make up for his mistakes and regrets. 'Is this another punishment?'
