Radia Mallarc.
I found out about him way before I met him for the second time. It wasn't hard. He was the sole direct heir of Althrea's biggest enterprised, the descendant of Althrea Mallarc herself.
And of course, the moment I knew who he was, I also knew how different we were. How far away I was from him.
No, this wasn't a story about a prince and a pauper. As the son of a general, I could say I had enough status to confidently say we lived in the same world.
That, however, meant nothing.
Because I knew the Mallarc detested the military.
It wasn't something that was widely known to the public, but an open secret among the high society. Rather than animosity, it was just a cold relationship. Still, it meant that as a son of Eastern Federation's General, I would be put at the very end of the spectrum among people in who Radia Mallarc might have an interest.
