My snap probably wasn't even visible.
Whack!
But the impact sound was definite.
"Kyaaah!"
He who was so confident just earlier could make such a scream.
The prince's scream rang loudly.
Everyone's expectation of a moderate strike was betrayed.
The prince turned around in surprise.
All students looked at me and Obern.
And something I didn't expect happened.
「You have publicly punished royalty.」
「Many people are impressed by the connected target's righteous conduct.」
「Gaining considerable dignity.」
Gasp.
So that's it.
Being impressed by a teacher's unflinching resolve as they delivered just punishment to a delinquent prince, who had clearly never faced such consequences before. The instructor showed no special treatment despite the royal bloodline, treating the transgression as they would with any other student.
The prince was frozen in his surprised posture.
