"Y.. Young Master".
Dressed in fitting indigo robe laced with Royal purple as well as a white martial belt to align it with his body, a young muscular man shouts out in fake excitement despite the clear look of panic in his eyes as he looks towards his master.
His master is a young man looking dressed in exquisite yet casual olive robes adorned with breath-taking patterns as a sliver coloured metal is directly laced into the fabric in a noble design. A luxurious gold and black ear-ring sits on a single ear in a style that seems more femine than masculine. His robes are accompanied by a flexible lustreless gold metal belt place across his waist line.
An artistic red traditional fan with golden patterns in its surface flutters naturally in his right hand while the back of his left wrist pushes against the centre of his spine making his posture to show a very rare mix of pure elegance and masculinity.
He comes from a high linage and there's no doubt about it considering his posture, wears and bearing but his handsome face scrunched a bit hearing the odd mix of panic and fake excitement in his servants voice.
"Excuse me..", The young master says calmly with a simple and cultured smile to the red veiled and elegant woman in front of him as he turns to his servant who's currently making his way from across the street in a super human pace.
As soon as his servant comes close enough, he gives a trained bow to the veiled elegant noble in front of his master before whispering a couple of words into his master's ears. The natural fanning motion of the young master's hand hits a stop with his eyes slightly bulging from what seemed to be embarrassment.
Turning to the direction of the red veiled lady he has been trying to flirt with, the young master could only watch her back in embarrassment as she is already leaving with her female Knight following calmly behind her.
With his ears slightly reddening, Young Master Lorin swallows a mouthful of saliva as he hears his Servant and friend sigh in slight mockery..
"That's why I told you not to approach every hole you see on the streets..", His servant mocks with slight laughter as he observes his masters face now that they had dodged the bullet.
"Shut up,..", The young lord says from annoyance while flapping his fan shut.
The words that his servant whispered into his ears that caused this reaction is none other than an identity reveal, "She's Reyes-de-Blaine..", His servant has whispered.
The girl he was stupidly trying to flirt with is the notorious Reyes-de-Blaine from the even more notorious Reyes family!.
The Reyes family is amongst the top powers in the military aspect of the Continent and although their powers were insignificant compared to the Imperial Court, they were still amongst the numerous tiny wheels that keeps the Continent running smoothly. The family had wealth and enough power and influence to be ranked a top tier household and because of their military background, they were known especially for their ruthlessness. Compared to his high end but less influential family, there's still a wild gap. To think that he opened his Fan to show off his family's crest.
The girl herself is known as the most favoured daughter of the current Patriarch but she's also quite famous for her well.. orientations. To put bluntly, she fancied women and she even currently has a harem of five all to herself!
If this isn't ground-breaking enough to make Young Master Lorin feel flustered then the fact that the female Knight that stood by the girls side is her main lover would.
Her sworn Knight and lover. A terrifying sword-mage genius in the FOURTH RANK!!!. This woman is known to be notorious when it comes to people approaching her master and lover.
There were incidents of deaths, bloodshed to the few who dared and even there are rumours that she once diced the baby making station of some unfortunate young master!.
Thinking of this, Lorin subconsciously closed his legs a bit tighter as a shiver of fear races through his spine.
Knowing exactly what Lorin is thinking, his servant did not bother on hiding his laugh as he considers the expression on his masters usually graceful face quite intriguing.
Young Master Lorin hisses distastefully at his laughing friend and servant before fluttering his fan open once more if for anything but to hide his expression as he starts walking off in a new direction with his Servant following closely behind him.
Soon, they get to one of their many usual place to hang, a fancy and always open relaxation bar. Without need for instructions, his servant has already moved ahead to tender a metal identification slip to the eyes of a goblin stature in the front door.
A maid in simple blue robes soon approaches them before politely leading them through the normal section of the bar that's currently occupied by people drinking and into a set of curtains that hide an underground stairs.
It didn't take up to a ten seconds before the Duo of Master and servant reaches a very familiar space. Low lights, Simple brown wood furniture's in different designs and arrangements for socialising, people playing games on these various platforms while some sit alone as they enjoy their teas and drinks.
The atmosphere of the place is social but relaxed as games were played, bets were made and drinks were consumed. Thus is the very perfect atmosphere for young masters and misses like himself to socialize and enjoy without the stress that comes with cultivation.
Just about to pick a seat, Young Master Lorin catches the figure of someone he knows yet rarely meets sitting alone as usual at a corner of the wide room while playing a gamevic checkers with himself. With a very friendly smile on his face, he walks over to him with his Servant following closely.
"Greetings, big brother..", He says with a smile on his face that almost appears flattering.
The person he is talking to raises his face from the game of checkers he's currently playing with himself before nodding with a 'Um' in response. The tone of response is very dismissive yet Lorin doesn't seem even the slightest bit offended as he quickly takes a seat up with his smile growing a bit wider.
The reason he is being so flattering to someone is very obviously an unhidden method of gold digging for connections and yet shame does not apply to his expression. This is because unlike the rest of the people in this place, he knows something they didn't. The person sitting across him right now and playing a game with himself comes from within the Imperial Grounds!.
