Austria, August 6th 1800

Lukas sighed. 'Actually, I was wrong when I thought that I only had to build a good relationship with Leonhard. Every prince here is important, since any of them might die at any moment,' he thought.

Lukas cleared his throat and started walking towards Niklas, Franz's second son. Lukas didn't know much about him. The only things that he knew about him was that he was 12 years old, and curiously, he wasn't going to the Royal Academy.

'Perhaps he simply doesn't like swordsmanship, or he simply didn't show any talent at first like his brother did, and simply decided to give up... which is pretty dumb to be honest. I also don't have any natural talent in swordsmanship or anything like that, but I trained a lot and now I'm enrolled in the Royal Academy. The people who say you need talent to do something are totally wrong, and I say that with authority,' Lukas thought.
