I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Villainess’ Older Brother - CH 84

All aristocratic children in the kingdom must enroll in the Royal Aristocratic School of the Kingdom of Siriyum.

When registered as an aristocrat, although the house had fallen and became poor, there was no exception. Instead, if you apply for admission, you will be exempted from dormitory fees, tuition fees, uniform fees, and other expenses, and there was also on-campus part-time job placement. As students that were treated equally among all, if you can connect with other households, there is a possibility that you can get assistance and rebuild your family after graduation. There had been a few examples of this in the past.

The fall of the house was not the responsibility of the current generation, it would be a loss to have legitimate descendants and talented (possibly) youth to be burdened by the debt of their parent generation. – It seemed like it was a system created from national policy.

Due to this, there was no entrance examination, but there were grade examinations and graduation examinations.  Since these exemptions were only provided for 6 years regardless of the situation, things like poor aristocratic children repeating a year because they were desperately focused on the part-time job were not allowed.

Cain sat at the desk in the room that he was assigned to, reading through the various school guides and notices. The main thing was to check the academic acceleration system and the schedule of holidays.

The room was a double room, and he was using the other empty desk since it looked like the luggage of his roommate was already placed.

According to the rules, it was made so that students did not have to spend any money in the extent of their commute from dormitory to school. Breakfast and dinner at the dormitory and lunch at the school were free, and stationaries seemed to be provided. It was written that there will be an additional charge for eating additional dessert or ordering supper. Most likely, it would cost money to live luxuriously like an aristocrat.

When he was looking intently at the school rules and dormitory rules, there was a knock on the door.  As he turned his face to look, there was a boy that was slightly taller than Cain standing there. He was leaning on the door that was already fully opened and apparently knocked on the door behind him. It seems like he wanted to get Cain’s attention.

“Hey, beautiful lady. Ambushing in the room is a bold move. You couldn’t wait until the entrance ceremony to meet me, can you?”

The boy greeted while pushing back his long bangs. There was only Cain in the room. Cain was silent as he looked at the boy from head to toe, and made eye contact with him as he returned his gaze back at the boy’s face.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Cain Elgrandark and I’ve come from the neighboring country, the Kingdom of Limuto Break to study here. Are you in the same room with me?”

Cain disregarded the boy’s words and greeted him since he couldn’t tell if he was mistaken for a woman, or if there was a woman in this room that only the boy could see, or if he had misunderstood the words that he was not used to.

It was before the puberty voice change, but Cain’s voice was indeed a boy’s voice. The boy, who still had his bangs brushed up and trying to look cool, was stunned and his mouth was wide open.

Ah, this means that the boy had mistakenly greeted him thinking that he was a girl, Cain understood. Maybe it was due to his long hair, he wondered as he held and gazed at the tip of his loosely braided hair. He casually threw his braid to his back and got up from his chair.

“I’m sorry. Are my words hard to understand? I’ve been studying the language of this country but it’s my first time to actually talk to the people in this country so I’m worried.”

It was a lie.

Before he came here, he was always talking with the people at the inn and the people at nearby shops to see how much grasp he had of the language. There were times when he couldn’t pick up or understand the words and idioms, but he was good at basic conversation.

It seemed that the frozen boy had finally recovered his composure, he pushed himself off the door and he walked until he was right beside Cain. He was seriously observing Cain’s face and body from top to bottom, and as if he was convinced, he gave a big nod and straightened himself up.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“It’s disrespectful not to know me. But, since you’re an international student, it can’t be helped. Let’s introduce ourselves! My name is Julian Siriyum! I’m the first prince of this country! Show your respect! Praise me!”

“Although it was because I did not know, I apologize for greeting you while sitting down. Once again, my name is Cain Elgrandark. I am honored and humbled to be able to meet His Royal Highness Prince Julian.

I have heard about the rumors in my country and the distant neighboring country. As I have heard – a beautiful appearance as if there’s a bright shine. The standing posture is dignified, as expected from His Royal Highness who will lead the next generation. There is an aura that can only be described as the royal aura. Certainly, a strong and wise person and this personality is exuded.”

“Cain. I told you to show your respect and praise me, but you don’t have to praise me to that extent. It feels like you’re cursing me out.”

“Is that so?”

“We’re in the same room from today, there is no need to be so polite. I’ll allow you to call me Julian. I’ll call you Cain too.”

“I understand, Julian-sama.”

The royal family that Cain knew were only the Queen and Arundilano, but Cain thought that a royal family that was indeed like a royalty that was a different type from those two had emerged.

And, Cain was impressed by the thoroughness of this country’s policy, since even the royal family lived in the dormitory and even shared rooms.

“By the way, Cain, do you have an older or younger sister?”

“No.”

Cain lied with a nonchalant face. If Julian is the first prince of this country, then he was the older brother to Haz – ‘the second prince of the neighboring country’, who was one of the potential suitors. Which meant that he was the scoundrel who tried to marry Dianne even though he already had both a queen and a consort. It did end up with Diana pushing the younger brother against the older brother.

Diana’s existence must not be made known to this womanizer. He would not let him even land his eyes on her.

Being the case that he was a royalty, he had good looks. He must be popular. Judging from the way he greeted Cain when he had mistaken Cain for a girl, he must be popular and a flirt.

Cain raised the caution level in his mind.

“So you have no sisters. That’s unfortunate. Your older sister or younger sister would be a beautiful woman.”

“That’s right. Since I am beautiful.”

Cain was not modest about his own appearance. He has become quite accustomed to Cain’s face now, but since he knows what he was like in his previous life, Cain honestly thinks that his current appearance was beautiful, and when he can use it as a tool, he has been using it as a tool.

“Just now, was the greeting of Break country, right? At Yum, we hold our hands when we greet each other. We prove that we don’t have weapons on each other, and we show our trust in the other by leaving our dominant hand to them.”

With that said, Julian extended his right hand. Cain thought that it was a handshake, and when he extended her right hand, his hand was squeezed tightly. While his hand was being squeezed tightly and shaken up and down lightly, Julian smiled broadly with a boyish innocent face instead of the previous look of a flirtatious man.

“Nice to meet you, Cain. Let’s compete with each other to see which one of us will get more girls at school.”

“Pleased to meet you, Julian-sama. I humbly refuse.”

Cain made his first friend in the Kingdom of Siriyum and it was His Highness the First Prince.
