I was an average otaku guy. I spent my days reading manga and playing otome games. I was happy, that is, until one day when I was walking home from school, I was hit by Truck-kun! When I died, I met a goddess who told me that I died by accident and thus she will transmigrate me in a fantasy world as the hero where I will have my own harem of 300 women! But this is not what I expected! Where was my harem of 300 women? And most importantly, why did I get transmigrated in the otome game that I hated the most, "Love in the Midst of Chaos: Lunar Crest Academy" as Kalin, the cannon fodder terminally ill prince who was destined to die at the young age of 14!?!

"I'm sorry Your Highness, but I can't escort you to the Human Realm. My Young Master requests my presence in the Middle Plane." Sebastian said with a graceful bow.
"Gosh! You ruined my cool moment Sebastian!" I complained as I glared at him.
The Middle Plane was created by the higher gods during ancient times and was otherwise known as a parallel world to the Human Realm. The only way to get there was either teleportation or by running faster than the speed of light which only Sebastian can do.
Speaking of the Middle Plane, my lips curled in disgust as I remember him mentioning his 'Young Master'. Sebastian looked like a fool in love, following his lover's every command.
"Go ahead Sebastian, but do remember that I am your real Master, not my adoptive cousin. I know you may be his butler temporarily but don't forget your real position as the Royal Butler. I don't even know why you just don't just eat his soul. Or is it that you love him?" I questioned him with a serious expression.
"Love?" Sebastian scoffed, "Demons don't feel emotions. I'm just waiting for him to get his revenge, then I'll eat his soul and kill him."
"Ha! Keep telling yourself that Sebastian. You do realize having emotions is not a weakness right? I've known you since I was born and I know you are denying it which will cost you greatly in the end." I said, shaking my head.
"Plus, you do realize that your 'Young Master' has princess syndrome right? He likes it when you take charge to rescue him and that's what you're doing right now." I said, raising my eyebrow waiting for his reaction.
Sebastian stared at me speechless for a few moments before using his enhanced speed to vanish into thin air.
Sigh, he never listens.

Now that my royal butler left me for his 'Young Master', I have to go through the teleportation portal/array by myself.
I walked through the portal and was met with the Royal Family of the Human Realm and their staff who worked at the Diamond and Gold Palaces.
I looked into the crowd and tried to spot Kalin but to no avail.
'Hmmm, where is he?'
Just as I was thinking that thought, the King turned to his staff and ordered them with a loud and regal tone, "Hello everyone! This is my illegitimate son that I have found, Prince Kairos. You shall treat him with the utmost respect during his stay at the Gold Palace!"
I scrunch my eyebrows in distaste.
The King sure likes to play favorites. I can't imagine how hurt Prince Kalin was that his scummy father allowed another prince who came from the demon realm who is not even family to live in the Gold Palace, yet he could only live in the Silver Palace meant for illegitimate children when Prince Kalin is actually a legitimate heir to the throne.
I wouldn't mind helping Prince Kalin take revenge if he needs help. What I hate most is scum, because it reminds me of her.

Guess what my dear readers?! I found the teleportation array that's connected from the Gold Palace to the Silver Palace! I guess I'm going to go on a little adventure to find a certain little prince.
A few moments later, I stood outside the Silver Palace. I still did not get why the Human King would have three different palaces so far apart.
A maid appeared and said while bowing, "Welcome. My name is Verna, his highness Kalin's maid. I assume that you are Prince Kairos. Please wait at the rose gardens while I inform his highness that you came to visit."
I nodded to her and she led me to a table near the rose garden. I sat down and watched as she rushed down the hall. I looked around and found out that although the Silver Palace was filthy, the only thing nice and clean was the rose garden.
I gazed up at the sky for a few seconds and grinned.
"So it turns out the sky is blue in the Human Realm," I muttered.
"Of course it is." A soft voice said.
I placed my head back down and glanced at the source of the voice. It was a cute-looking boy that had silky pastel blue hair. His light blues shimmered like jewels and he looked so frail that it looked like he could fall from the slightest breeze. It was Kalin Luther, the boy who sparked my interest.
'Is he sick? Why wasn't I aware of this? I need to ask for a doctor.' I thought as I continued to look at his weak and frail body.
"So, what brings you here?" Kalin asked suddenly.
"I was just curious," I replied.
We sat in awkward silence for a few minutes before the maid, Verna, arrived with some cakes and pastries. What a savior!!!
After a few bites of cake, I couldn't help but ask in a questioning tone, "Why are your family treating you so differently? Shouldn't they be proud that you ranked 3rd out of all the citizens in the entire kingdom?"
Kalin shrugged my shoulders.
"I have no idea." He replied.
A thought occurred to me and my crystal blue eyes glinted with slyness.
I leaned in towards him and noted how his face grew a little pink. I whispered into his ear, "What if you're not their actual child?"
I pulled back from him with a smirk evident on my face.
I watched as his face widened in shock and I was about to say I was just kidding when all of a sudden he coughed out a waterfall of blood.
I quickly stood up to help him as he doubled over the tea table, gasping for air.
'Oh Shit! Did I go too far?!'
