Matthew Karen didn't hear the low murmurs about him from Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao.
He held himself upright, his steps dignified. His big red Jiuyou Academy robe was clean and well-pressed, the belt and buttons meticulously fastened. As he walked, he acknowledged each known student or teacher with a nod, his aloof demeanor tinged with indifference.
To perfectly embody the elegance of a Night Noble, he had undergone a year's intensive training from an old vampire of his family who was said to have served as a protocol officer for the Habsburg Family before coming to the school.
He had forgotten many details of the training, but some words of the old vampire always echoed in his ears.
"First University is a miniature world of wizards, and you are the representative of the Karen Family in it!"
"Every action and word of yours represents the honor of the Karen Family!"
"The crown of honor is woven with thorns, dripping with fresh blood."
