Chapter 21 - Member #1

"Hey, kid! What's wrong with you? Why are you laughing alone?" Adriel waved his hands in front of me.

I was startled when he said that. I can't stop myself from smiling when I am imagining my entertainment agency someday.

Hahaha!

"Adriel, aside from practicing for being a knight, do you have any more hobbies? Like singing or dancing? Playing instruments?"

"Huh? What do you mean? I only focus on my training as a knight."

"You don't have any more hobbies or talents? Boring."

"Well, my mother just brought a teacher for me. He's teaching me to play the piano right now. But I just started learning it."

"Piano? Wow, that's awesome. Maybe you can practice harder."

"Why are you saying that? I still want to tell my mother that I want to focus my training on being a knight."

"What! Why would you say that? Learning a piano can be a plus point someday if you want to woe girls. Besides, I can use it as your talent if I recruit you."

Of course, I just whispered the last sentence I said.

"Huh? What did you say in the last part? I couldn't hear it."

"Nothing. I just want to tell you that boys playing the piano look cool to girls."

After I said that, I saw his face turning red.

"W-what are you saying? W-well maybe I will learn to play it."

I just pump my fist secretly.

Success!

Hahaha!

"That's good. Maybe you can play me a song after you learn." I said and gave him a wide smile.

"Will you also think I'm cool if I play piano like other girls?" He whispered.

"What did you say? I did not hear you?"

My, I was busy imagining him playing piano on stage, that I did not hear his reply.

"Nothing. I said you look like a crazy kid smiling in front of me."

"Whatever."

"Kid, you should also call me big brother. Your brother and I are of the same age and we study under one teacher. So I will consider you as my little sister."

"If I call you big brother, someday if I ask for a favor you have to accept it no matter what I request."

"Sure! Just a small thing."

Doping a kid is easy.

Hehehe.

Let's give a little more push.

"I will not believe you."

"I will give my promise as a knight."

"Yes!"

I suddenly said and started to jump around him. Mission accomplished. Member #1 recruited.

"You promised. Someday I will ask for whatever favor you cannot back out."

"Of course! I will listen to any of your requests as long as it's not doing anything bad."

"I will not request something bad. As a member of the Dukedom of Evernight and Imperial family, I promise to it."

"Let's go there and meet the other kids. I will introduce them to you."

"Sure Older brother Adriel." I beamed at him with my most cute smile.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

I am in a very good mood right now.

So I just followed him around. We went to where Wymund was playing. He was playing tag with the others.
