Chapter 12: The Schemer's Time (3)
As soon as I stepped out of that room, my feeling of coolness surged. I feel cool. I can feel my face reflecting victory, my lips can't hide it. Kyaaa! I'm so proud of myself. I want to sing in happiness!
"We are the champion my friend~
We'll keep on fighting 'till the end~
We are the champion,
we are the champion!~
No time for losers,
'cause we are the champions of the world!~" I sang in delight, ignoring the people on my way.
My main talent as a human in my world is my powerful intimidation, singing is only additional but should not hide. Thank god, Tania's voice is not bad either hahaha~ though I can be careless even if it's bad, I will still sing for my victory. As I stroll down the hallway, my smiling face can't be wiped off.
"Champion? Of what? It's surprising that you're now speaking…" My steps were frozen and I could feel the goosebumps creeping on my skin… Just who the crap did I offend to have someone look at me with much killing intent.
I traced the path of where the voice came from. From the pillars! A man standing with his cloak on, I can't see his face due to the shadow. I gathered my courage and approached the man, he didn't move. Now that I got to see his face clearly, he's quite handsome but the eyes of his are still giving off killing intent, so this is how they feel when I glare at someone, what more if my worse aura was unleashed, this guy here still have a long way to go to match my worse intimidation.
"Who're you?" I asked in my poker face.
I looked at his head to see the floating letter but it's blurry, but the only man who has a great hate for Tania is her brother Keaton... could it be...
"You forgot the face of your only brother?" He asked, like spatting the words out of his mouth. Aiya, another trouble.
"Eh? You are my brother?" I asked with innocence, let's stick to my 'amnesia' story, "But why are you looking at me with such killing eyes? Do you hate me? Sorry, I can't remember it at all."
I acted like a harmless rabbit in front of a hungry tiger. If it wasn't for my cover, I would definitely teach him a lesson. Is this the right way to treat your older sister, you brat?!
"So it's true, you really forgot everything. Still, my feelings won't change towards you." Then he passed me and walked away like nothing happened.
Arghhh! Don't change my view for Keaton, you stupid Tania! My idol, Keaton~ No!~ he hates me. Ugh! The feeling of victory plummeted.
-----
At the house.
Cheer up Randall! As Tania, she won't be affected by that, so cheer up! You still need to settle the cancellation of your engagement. I need to talk to Marquess, Tania's father.
I knocked several times on the door of his office but he did not respond, the butler said the Marquess was in here. What's the hold up?! To my annoyance, I opened it without his approval. I saw him sitting and reading some files. What was so interesting about those files? You even forgot there was someone knocking on the door!
"I need to talk to you now." I demanded. He looked up to me, brr... another one who possesses coldness and intimidation. What kind of family is this even?!

Short description:
Marquess Trastius Drell Cavelier, an intimidating Marquess who has an awful personality towards the servants and his offspring. He seldom talks to his own child and is always stoneface when meeting them, Tania and Vega are aloof towards him.
+
I talked like I'm not one of them, tch. I'm the worst among them, I can make someone pee with just a glare. Or make someone commits suicide in fear.
"You…" He was shocked at first then slowly his forehead slightly crumpled, "Give me 20 minutes. Meet me in the drawing room." He said without any emotion.
I immediately stepped out, what the-! Is that the correct emotion to give a daughter? Just like what's indicated in the book, he rarely interacts with his daughters. Ugh, what a family. Is it perhaps he is against women? It could be…
I waited 20 minutes outside the drawing room like he instructed, then when I opened the door, my eyes landed on the pink sweets and cakes. He was now sitting on the couch and sipping his tea… I can't contain my shock. Am I seeing this right? How come he's already here? Moreover, Tania and his father were like oil and water and they couldn't stay in the same room for more than 30 mins. but what is this? We're having tea?!
"When did you prepare this?!" I asked with wide eyes. He looks funny and sweating, but fuck! I can tell that 'DISGUST' is written all over my face- I hate light colors! And I'm not fond of eating sweets.
"I thought you would like it, you must've something important to tell me." The stiffness and emotionlessness on his face did not vanish, even looking like this- he's less intimidating now.
"I don't like it." I straightforwardly stated.
Ah~ my head will only ache if we fight over this, tch. I'll let it go for now. So I sat opposite him.
"I need to discuss something about my engagement to Prince Megastar." I crossed arms and looked at him in annoyance, he looked silly.
"You want to reschedule it as soon as possible? I'll take note of that, is that all?" He took out a paper and a quill out of his pocket- Did he always carry those with him? Is he even normal?
"No! I want you to canc--"
"Father, why did you put so much effort like this for this annoying thing? It's a waste." A man in a cloak appeared and cut my words, freaking ghost!
'…thing? Who the fuck-?'

Short description:
Keaton Vero Cavelier, is a mysterious guy who likes to hide every time like a shadow, he's like an assassin and executioner of the Royal Family. If someone in high status suddenly died, then blame it on Keaton, he's the culprit. He despises Tania, his elder sister for some reason and disrespects her.
+
"She said she'll discuss something so I prepared it." The Marquess inquired, talking like I wasn't here.
It's Keaton. The wrong timing brat who stole my limelight. How dare he address me as a 'thing'?
'No… I need to calm down first'
I sat still and calmed myself not to explode and say something hurtful… calm down Randall… a little patience, he is now your brother- treat him like how you treated Bruce, okay…?
"What? About her engagement? She just wants to pretend like she wants to cancel it, what a waste of time, don't listen to her." Keaton stated like he knows what I'm doing… Did the Prince tell him what happened earlier?! That damned Prince! Curse him!
At that point, my patience was almost at its limit that I could hear the sonar sound.
"What is it to you if I want to cancel it?" I raised an eyebrow, my bloodstreams are getting hot- my veins are about to burst.
"Huh? Don't make me laugh, you just love him as if you can't live without him." He said with a smug face. And there he said it…
*Snapped*
"So what if I want to cancel the engagement? Are you the one who's going to marry? Huh? Are you the one who got cheated? You talk like you knew what happened, I bet he even told you how I humiliated him in front of his lover and how hurt he was by my words so he came crying to you to prevent me from doing what I planned. You're just here because the Prince told you so, Loyal Dog" My anger cannot be contained anymore- I am like a delinquent who's asking for a fight with matching stomping my foot on top of a table.
I had enough! My viscous aura got released, I want to kill that bastard of a Prince! And you! You bais brother of mine, you dared provoke me?! I'll let you taste my wrath later!
+

To cool down, you have to take a shower or drink cold water.

"And you! Cancel the engagement! If not, I'll go barge into the palace to ask the King myself. I'm serious, Marquis Trastius." My eyes shifted back to the Marquess, they both flinched and sweats, they looked horrified and dumbfounded but I don't fucking care.
I stepped out and left the two of them. This crappy day is so tiring! I want to rest. I remember back in my world, I sometimes felt like this whenever the company was in danger- I was stressed. I didn't think that in this world, without the company, I would still feel stressed out because of those insignificant characters.
