My fingers are twitching. My smile is twitching. I've been at it for half an hour.
And Caspian is still staring daggers at me. Of course, I know why.
"B-brother...,"
"No. I know," he cut off my words.
Well, if you know then spit it!!
"First off, I have a...,"
"But you didn't discuss it with me," he cut off my words, again.
Gale who was behind my brother sighed. "Young master, how about we listen to the young lady for a second?," he suggested. Caspian glared at him and Gale immediately straighten his back in fear.
"Y-you know what, never mind," Gale stuttered.
Gale von Guilde. Useless as always. You can't even convince Caspian, who you've served for 10 years!
"Brother, if it's regarding Aspera's stance, I am aware we are neutral,"
"And?"
Caspian crossed his leg, still fuming. "Think about it! With this, the crown prince faction will panic and will quickly propose to me in order to get Aspera to their side,"
"They dare...," Caspian's eyes shone coldly.
For his dear little sister to marry an imbecile crown prince. Ridiculous!
"But it works in our favor. They will become defenceless and it'll be easy to wipe them off," I suggested.
I've researched this thoroughly before coming to visit Vance. Aspera had remained neutral for centuries. Even though we are considered the sword of the empire, we don't give a damn on who will be the emperor. So the fight for the crown between the princes is considered a waste of time for us Asperas.
But the current crown prince is a little too ambitious, knowing that winning the Aspera is guaranteed that you'll win the throne. They dare to involve Aspera in their little fight, of course the Asperas is going to retaliate.
Caspian smiled at the suggestion. Indeed, his little sister is both smart and adorable. Nobody in this world can replace her.
"I agree. While they are out to show their claws, we can cut them off and strike straight to their hearts. We'll see how they play," Caspian smirked, and I smiled when my brother is quick to pick up things.
Meanwhile, Gale is sweating profusely at the exchange between the two ruthless siblings. How could they talk about murdering people while smiling at the same time. He felt his lifespan is slowly shaving off.
