"Albert Neslete, You and I, we have been--no, we were archenemies of each other. " David said with forced words, He was trying to not let me know what truly wants but " What I wouldn't do to just kill you right now" Since, He pointed a gun at me at that time, I knew, He wants to kill me but something is stopping him from doing so. Even though at that time, He tried to hide his killing intent towards me but right now, he gave off some serious-- I might just die If I am not careful. Is what I realized.

When David had said that, And while I was under my thoughts. I didn't see it. David looks at Diana while he grinds his teeth and says " Maid, Are you sure about that? " David looks furious and When I saw Diana, I realized, why was he furious; Diana was pointing a Beretta (handgun), she kept hidden until now, towards David's head " I know what I am doing, Mr David. Even if I am maid, I vowed to protect young master and You dare threaten my beloved- You dare threaten Heir of Neslete family in front of the head of the family and front his personal maid. I am not sure, where you got your confidence to go such a length but I think, This 9mm bullet will be enough to strip you out of your confidence. " So, Diana said to David. I was beyond surprised; I never knew, Diana was capable of such a thing.

I cannot begin to imagine, If Diana is doing something like this just cause David threatened me, what would she have done if she were with me at the school when David pointed a gun at me. I guess, I would've been attending David's funeral right about now.

" A mere maid.... " David mumbles under his breath.

In any case, this is not good "Diana, take that thing away from David. He is a guest right now. "

But she didn't listen to my words and keeps on pointing her gun at David. She says "Young master, you can punish me for my action later but right now, let me show this pebble his place. I don't care if he is from Kichiro family or whatever-- I cannot forgive this person. " This kinda troublesome but I wonder, Why is my annoying father isn't doing anything? He is just drinking tea, pretending to ignorant about the situation.

Diana isn't listening to my words, is she really a mere maid? and my father is---He doing what he is best at, being annoying.

I am in a pickle...

Maybe my expression changed when Diana refused to take her gun away and she must have noticed that troubled expression that I had; " Tch... " She clicks her tongue and finally, points her gun away from David. " If you dare harm young master, know this, I, Diana will bring down whatever left of your kichiro family to the gutter " So she said

Isn't she going too far??? I really should be careful about this girl.

David stays in silence, maybe he realized Diana isn't joking around, she is being serious and aware of what is she doing. Well, David got what he asked for, He threatens me so, He got threatened back. It evens out for us.

"So, David, what were you saying? " I said and for some reasons, David didn't make big deal out of what just transpired and continued on with his words " As I said, Neslete and Kichiro families ar-- Let me get to the main point here, We were arch enemies of each other before Adger took his position as the head a few years ago. Until a few years ago, your life was in the danger of being targeted by Kichiro family-- that is the reason, why your father kept you under the house until now. Adger, The current head of Kichiro family had decided to work on equal terms with Neslete, your family. Your father had already agreed when he was the head of the family."

So, until now my life is in the danger so, my father kept me in the house but when the head of kichiro changed and Adger, became a new head; He decided to work alongside instead of against each other with my family. In the end, My father and the new head of kichiro family came to an agreement and decided to work together... and the school, its something that allows others to join either of families and regardless of which family they decide to work with, they are treated equally in the school... " So, what's the problem? if everything has already been decided, why are you bringing all of this stuff in front of me? " There are also a few things I want to ask, like who are those students? But I'll leave it out for now.

My annoying kept silence until now, So, I assumed he will not speak but He did and the words he spoke were " You are the problem, my son. Since I am leaving the position of leader to you, like kichiro family's pervious head, all of my previous agreement is void. Since this is an important matter, you have to decide as soon as you take my position if you still want to work alongside with Kichiro family or not. This is why David himself came when he learned you are still uneducated in the matter of families. I'll admit, This is my fault for keeping all of this secret from you but I assumed, I'll keep being head and raise you as a normal child and let you live a normal life."

Argh... Of course, this all your fault-My annoying father! And raise me like a normal child, by keeping me locked up in the house? if that's normal for you, you should go and check if there some screw loose in your head!

" *sigh* David, As you know, I am still unaware of the norm of these families. So, let me ask you a question, What if I refuse? " I asked David. David almost knows everything about my family and he is sitting here in front of me, knowing the danger; He should be an important person to Kichiro family, I mean Adger decided to let him be the representer of his family so, He has to important and capable person. I can do massive damage to kichiro family if I kill this person.

"Albert, You are of my and Adger's age. You seem like a smart person, who understand the importance of this decision and I can tell that because you recognized your weakness and asked me. If you refuse, First of all, That school you went to, It will be destroyed. It was built to deepen our relationship but if you don't want to be part, there will be no need for it. It would have been great if this ended with just that; Our territories collide with each other and we are well aware of each other's weakness by now. If there is a dispute among us, and I can guarantee you there will be, seeing how our relationship was before Adger became the head, We will hit each other where it hurts the most. There will be bloodshed all around you. " David said

Bloodshed, uh? I seriously don't care about what happens to humans and I have seen enough blood in my life but what intrigues me the most is, Consequence of my refusal. I mean, I am here to prove to the god no human can be called innocent and if this is what gonna happen if I refuse, then, don't you think this better for me? Yes, This will be better... But these are just desire of my human nature. I could prove something by deaths but is this how I want to do it? Is this how I would've done if I was still in my previous form?

What will I do? What the monster would do?
