20 minutes earlier…
"E…El…Eldest Prince, welcome to Pearl Auct…" The gatekeeper did not finish greeting when Nicholas passed by him like a gust of wind. He used his hand to pat his chest after seeing the disappearing figure of the prince.
'Goodness gracious, how could someone's gaze be so frigid and cause your life to flash before your eyes like that?! He had nearly had a heart attack after seeing the menacing aura that clung to the eldest prince and his deathly glare as if he were the King of the afterlife himself coming for his soul.'
Nicholas pulled a staff member walking in the hallways by his collar and asked authoritatively,
"Which room is registered under the second prince's name?"
The boy's eyes widened at seeing the man's dark gaze that looked like he would kill him instantly if he lied, and he immediately pointed in the direction of the room.
