Once again, my uncle and Olivia came to my mother's palace and there was a meeting, discussing my future. My future was in a tough condition. Brother Francis started to be my real thread lately.
Brother Francis' catched the emperor's attention. He even showed an amazing performance in his class. The only weakness he had was his skill in swordsmanship. Besides that, he showed a perfect talent.
At this point, he would gain more power than me and even beat me at the final exam. This situation was definitely a dangerous one. Once he beat me at the final exam, then it most likely he would be appointed as the crown prince. And that meant, everything was over.
