Chapter 290

Since then, there has been a disconnect between Orson and other students at the same level in the academy.

Lianka also wanted to complain about Orson. She had just entered the fourth level at the age of seventeen, and was already considered a genius, while Orson had already reached the fourth level when she was twelve years old. What a pervert is this.

"By the way, speaking of which, Lianka, what do you think of your engagement to Orson?"

"Eh? Sister, why are you bringing this up?" Lianka frowned when she heard Olivia's words.

"Of course I am going to look after our precious little sister. Orson and I are classmates and we are running for the student union together this year. I usually have a lot of contact with him in the college." Olivia smiled. Speaking of.

"Besides, if you think about Orson, not only is he young and handsome, he is also a powerful person, and he is also the son of a duke. He is a perfect match." Olivia continued to praise Orson. "Sister, you must be under a lot of pressure to be engaged to such a proud man. After all, you are very likely to be said to be unworthy of Orson."

"Well... after all, it's my father's wish, and I can't go against it." Lianka said, and then said: "As for whether what you said is worthy of this statement, sister, well, Orson doesn't like it. Me? I still don’t like Orson!”

"Huh? You don't like Orson?" Olivia looked at her sister in surprise, wondering whether Lianka was confident or arrogant. "Why?"

"Sister, think about it, our Eisenberg family has ruled Prusia for how many years. Apart from the royal family, our family is the most powerful in the empire." Lianka said. "Although the Stranik family that Orson belongs to is also a duke family, it has only been a dozen years ago, and the Duchy of Antica has not even been older than you, sister."

"In addition, the Duke of Antica is also the weakest among the six major duchies in the empire. My father asked me to marry the son of such a duke. Isn't this a second marriage?"

Not sure whether Lianka was speaking out of anger or sincerely, Olivia said with relief: "It's okay. After all, Orson is also the strongest person among the younger generation in the empire. Marrying him is definitely not a bad thing."

I don't know why, when Olivia said this, there was still some jealousy in her words, but the angry Lianka didn't notice it.

"And more!" Lianka said as if something suddenly occurred to her: "Sister, have you heard? Many people are spreading the news now that Orson is not actually Duke Lucius' biological son. Lucius Duke Si’s real son is Lite who was recently brought back to his family.”

"Ah, I have indeed heard of this..." Olivia nodded. "But this shouldn't matter, after all, Orson is still the Duke's son, right?"

"Why doesn't it matter?" Lianka argued. "Sister, you are my sister. You shouldn't know that nobles value blood the most, right?"

"Originally, the Stranik family is not a wealthy family. If I marry the son of a poor farmer, will our children be fine by then!?"

"Oh, let's stop talking. I get annoyed when this marriage contract is mentioned. I don't know what my father thought back then, but he actually signed a marriage contract with such a family." Lianka said frantically.

The reason why she chose not to use her father's recommendation this time, but to take the entrance test directly, was to prove to the world that she, Lianka, could also get the first place in the academic test.

One, and won the first place in qualifying.

If Orson has it, she, Lianka, will also have it. She, Lianka, is no worse than Orson!

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Olivia patted Lianka on the back, and then said softly: "Sister, let me tell you something interesting in the academy..."

"When our little Lianka enters the first year of the academy as the number one, don't be laughed at because you don't understand these things~"

"Okay~" Lianka nodded obediently.

Chapter 31: Leaving Home

Time quickly came to the two days before the entrance test.

In the early morning, after Orson and Leeteuk had breakfast with their parents, they prepared to rush to school.

Fortunately, as a high-level magician, Orson possesses the magic flying carpet, a magic skill for traveling. Otherwise, he would have to rush to the imperial city half a month in advance.

Lucius and Mary stood at the door, followed by the family's servants.

"Orson, I'm leaving Li Te to you." Lucius looked at the two people and said happily.

"Yeah!" Orson nodded. "I will take good care of Leeteuk,"

"You too, Lite. Don't rely too much on your brother Orson for everything. You are not young anymore. You must learn to be independent." Mary also warned Lite.

Of course, only Orson could hear the hypocrisy contained in Mary's words.

"Yeah!" Lit nodded.

Orson watched the interaction between Li Te and Mary quietly, sighing silently in his heart.

I just hope that Mary really changes her mind and starts to reconcile with Lee Teuk.

After nearly a month of education, Lite is now much more confident, at least he is no longer as submissive as before in front of his family and servants.

"It's almost time, we should set off." Orson glanced at the sun, and then said to Lucius. "Father, it's time for us to set off."

After saying that, he summoned the magic flying carpet and sat on it.

"Well, take care along the way." Lucius said, waving towards Orson.

Then Orson glanced at Leeteuk.

"Well, Li Te, where is your flying carpet?"

"Um... Orson, can I sit on a blanket with you?"

"It's okay..." Orson nodded, "Then sit down."

"Okay." Li Te said, sitting on Orson's blanket, and then unconsciously wrapped his hands around Orson's waist.

His face rested on Orson's back.

"Eh..." Orson was stunned. Li Te's action reminded him of his previous life when he was riding a bicycle and the back seat would hold the front seat's waist to prevent him from becoming unstable.

"Orson... I'm afraid I won't be able to sit still, no... can't I?" Leete asked timidly when he saw Orson turning back to look at him.

"It's okay, that's fine. Lite, you didn't act like this when you were sitting before..."

"Before... I was attracted to other places because of my curiosity... I, I'm a little afraid of heights..."

"Okay." Orson nodded. In that case, just hold him.

Then, he looked in the direction of Lucius and Mary and waved to them.

"Father, mother, Li Teuk and I are leaving first!"

"Well, take care along the way." Lucius waved to the two of them.

Mary on the side also waved slightly to the two of them.

Afterwards, the two of them took to the sky on a flying carpet.

Behind the Duke and Duchess, in the queue of domestic servants, Vivian looked at the two young masters taking off, her heart filled with reluctance.

I don’t know when I will see them next time.

The maid lady thought so in her heart.

…

On the flying carpet, Orson sat with his legs crossed, while Lite had his legs folded on one side, leaning against Orson.

Liteuk's hands hugged Orson tightly, as if he was really afraid of falling.

"Li Te, you can't be afraid of heights." Orson said after flying a certain distance. "In the future, you must ensure that you are focused when traveling on your own flying carpet. If your fear of heights causes you to relax and cannot maintain the magic flying carpet, it will be very dangerous."

"Yeah, I know." Lite leaned against Orson and nodded. "Then just let Orson take me."

"You guy..." Orson didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I can't take you with me forever, can I? Why do I feel like you are becoming more and more pampered as you become stronger?"

"Isn't this all because of Orson?" Lite also said half-heartedly.

Said jokingly.

After leaving the family, there were no longer so many rules, and Li Teuk felt a lot more relaxed.

At least when I face people's greetings at home, I always have to return the greetings. When I meet my parents, I am always nervous and speechless.

Only when facing Orson, I can almost talk about everything.

Of course, except for the fact that I am a girl.

"Seeing that you are so happy, I will give you a vaccination first. You must follow rules when you arrive in the imperial city, including after entering the academy. The academy also has rules." Orson said.

"Eh?" Li Te suddenly lost interest in the journey to the imperial city.

"Hey, forget it, let me introduce the rules of the academy to you first, lest you don't understand anything after arriving at the academy, and you will be easily laughed at..."

With that said, Orson began to tell Li Teuk about the various rules of the academy on the flying carpet, as well as his experience of studying for a year as an academy student, and shared them all with Li Te.

When the time came in the evening, Orson and Li Te found a hotel in the transit city to rest for a while, and set off again early the next morning.

As the time came to noon, Li Te saw the magnificent city wall in the distance. It was a city many times larger than Antica. It was a city that only existed in the books and legends Li Te had seen.

The imperial city - the city of Saint Laurent.

As the two of them got closer and closer to the city of Saint Laurent, the city in miniature became bigger and bigger in Lite's eyes, until it could no longer fit in his field of vision.

At this time, the flying carpet the two were riding on slowly lowered its height.

"In the Imperial City, flying is prohibited without permission." Orson explained to Li Te.

Afterwards, the two stopped at the city gate.

After seeing the coat of arms on their chests, the guard at the door respectfully made way for them.

"Orson, why don't they check our identities?" Lite asked doubtfully as he followed Orson into the imperial city.

"Only nobles can wear family crests. They are the guards of the imperial city, and they naturally have good eyesight. After seeing the family crests on our chests, they realized our identities and took the initiative to let us in."

"That's right..." Lite nodded clearly, and then asked: "Osun, there are so many nobles in the empire, can they possibly recognize the coat of arms of the entire family?"

"Of course I can't recognize it completely."

"Then do you think it's possible that someone could make a fake coat of arms and pretend to be a noble?"

"I haven't thought about this yet, but no one should have the courage, right?" Orson said. "You know, in the empire, pretending to be a noble is a capital crime."

"And the blacksmith who helped create the fake noble coat of arms would also be sentenced to a felony if caught. So on the one hand, no one dares, and even if someone dared, there would be no blacksmith to make it for them."

"Oh~" Li Teuk suddenly realized.

Later, she saw that after entering the city, there were many carriages parked on the roadside, and many coachmen were providing services to people who had just entered the city.

"Orson, why are there so many coachmen here?"

"Didn't I say before that flying is prohibited without permission after entering the city? So many people rush to go to certain places, and if they don't have a carriage, this demand is born."

"With this demand, there will be supply, so there are many coachmen here." After Orson answered so many questions for Litt, a coachman also walked towards the two.

Chapter 32: There is only one double room

"Are you two in a hurry to get on the road?" The coachman said so, looking at the two flatteringly. "You two should be brother and sister, right? You can see that you are the sons and daughters of a wealthy family. My carriage is not only fast, but also stable. I guarantee that you won't feel any bumps when you sit on it."

"The road in the imperial city is so good. If your carriage can bump, I will still worry about my safety." Orson didn't buy it, but sneered and choked the coachman. "Besides, we are brothers, and your eyesight doesn't seem to be very good."

"Sorry, sorry, it's my fault." Seeing Orson like this, the coachman hurriedly nodded and apologized.

Seeing the coachman's good attitude, Orson nodded.

"Okay, take us to the Xingchen Hotel, can you deliver it?"

"Uh... Passenger carriages are prohibited from passing through the rich area over there, so I can only deliver you to the intersection..." The coachman was troubled when he heard the name of Xingchen Hotel.

"Okay, just deliver it to the intersection." Orson said so and paid the money.

"Master, this price..." The coachman hesitated when he saw the money in his hand.

"Don't try to trick me. I have walked this road many times. The price I give you is already good. You can't rip me off like this." Orson said so and showed the family emblem on his chest.

"How about running this trip or not? If you don't run, I will find someone else."

"Hey, don't, don't, get in the car..." The coachman saw that he had a tough guy and had no choice but to take the two of them to his carriage.

...

After getting off the carriage, Lit looked at Orson with some doubts.

"Orson, just now, is it necessary to bargain with such a coachman? I saw that he was dressed in rags. I guess his family must be very short of money, so they asked for a higher price."

"Lite, you don't understand this." Orson pointed to the carriage that was going away.

"Don't look at the coachman's rags, but look at him, he is so strong, so energetic, and so confident in his carriage."

"Do you think he is a person who is short of money?!"

"He deliberately dressed like this to win the money of young people like you who are not well-versed in the world."

"Ah!? Really?" Lit heard this and suddenly became a little angry.

"Of course it's true." Orson nodded. "This kind of person relies on ripping off customers every day. Maybe he has hundreds of gold coins stored at home. You sympathize with him, but he takes advantage of you!"

"Well! This kind of person is really hateful!"

"Right, so you should recognize this kind of person in the future, Lit." Orson said this, touched Lit's head, and then took Lit to the rich area.
