The cat's reaction to being forced to attack is

"As my tenth birthday present to you—"

"You now have the option to disarm it."

……

After the words fell, the other two young brothers at the table looked up at the same time.

"engagement?"

The boy's black eyes, which were like glass beads, seemed a little confused.

He didn't answer right away, but thought of something and asked.

"At birth... so this marriage contract was... made with the mother's consent?"

The emperor didn't know when, the movement of cutting food with a knife and fork had stopped, his hands and fingers were slightly crossed, and there was a rare moment of silence, and he answered.

"Yes, Megret is very clear."

Needle drop could be heard throughout the banquet hall.

Ever since the name "Megaret" was spoken by the sovereign, all the attendants and guards were completely silent, motionless, as if they had fallen into dead silence.

No one dared to mention the name of the imperial concubine who died of illness in public... Even if it is discussed in private, one should pay attention to whether there are any opponents who have nothing to do with her.

It was really that "scandal", but it was too secretive and sensational. The news was sealed in the royal family, and it was a felony to spread rumors outside.

And that little Highness...whether she knows, because the palace keeps secrets, almost no one can guess.

"In that case, I want to... save it for now." The boy hesitated for a while and said.

"...I think my mother must have her reasons."

"If possible, I would like to meet with the party who made the contract before making a decision."

……

The supreme ruler was silent for a moment, nodded slightly without any waves, and said.

"Okay. You just need to remember that I reserve the right to lift it for you."

"...Mmm." The young man seemed to be a little confused, but he still responded aloud.

"After it's over, you follow me to see your elder brother."

The emperor began to cut food with a knife and fork again, and lowered his eyes.

"Yes, father."

The boy nodded obediently.

Going to the white room that he had visited several times when he was a child, the boy met his oldest brother, whom he hadn't seen for a few years.

On the big white hospital-style bed, the eldest prince of the empire seemed to be a little rested than when he could only lie down in the past. Now, with the soft pillow behind him, he could sit up obliquely.

The young man with reddish hair can be recognized from his body shape, he is about 20 years old, his complexion is still not exposed to the light for a long time, and the paleness of the blue blood vessels can be seen clearly from under the almost transparent skin.

As she grows older, a piece of white silk covers the half of the face exposed under the eyes, and the outline becomes more three-dimensional. The color of the beautiful lips is slightly darker than the skin color, and the reddish color is more conspicuous in contrast to the white.

It's just that this color, which should obviously symbolize vitality and heat, makes the figure of the young man sitting on the hospital bed look more sickly and weak.

Even the sound of breathing is barely audible, like a young man made of rare white jade.

It is easy to make people feel a sense of isolation that they don't know whether they can touch it.

The black-haired boy standing by the bed stretched out his hand, and held the back of the young man's hand as cool and beautiful as white jade.

The palm was smooth and cool, and the unreal human touch became more obvious, but the boy didn't feel any abnormal reaction.

"...Anzel is here."

The youthful voice of the good-looking young man on the bed.

The voice is transparent and ethereal like a jade stone, as if it came from a sky that does not belong to this world.

"...Brother."

The black-haired boy lowered his eyes slightly.

"—Ten years old today, Ansel?"

The voice of the young man on the bed said.

"…………Um……"

The boy seemed to hesitate slightly, and wanted to say something, but he didn't make a sound.

"...Ansel recently—"

The young man beside the bed gently shook hands, lifted them up, and landed on the top of the young man's hair as if comforting.

"Did you have some strange dreams?"

The youthful and transparent voice asked.

The young man showed a look of surprise, raised his eyes hastily, and seemed to want to speak, but he didn't know where to start.

And the reaction after the dream...was a little too embarrassing.

The boy didn't know whether it was arranged on purpose or not, and he didn't go through physiology courses - he didn't even have any male waiters who were closer to him, so he wasn't sure if it was... that type of question .

Because of being so dizzy and ignorant, when he regained his sobriety, he always withdrew from the arms of the emperor or the two brothers who didn't take him seriously, and he didn't have the time to figure it out.

"...Ansel doesn't need to resist the influence of dreams on you too much."

The young and empty voice on the bed spoke slowly.

"After a long time, those dreams may make you understand more things..."

The voice seemed to hesitate for a moment, not quite sure whether such a narrative method was appropriate for a teenager at his age.

Young and young, he likes to imagine endlessly, and is tired of illusory and boring things.

Children are always supposed to be difficult.

The young man seemed to be very confused and gave a soft "huh", raised his head slightly, looked at his elder brother with black eyes in a little confusion, and wondered if he understood.

"...Okay, it's time."

The emperor walked into the door, bent slightly, and took the hand of the black-haired boy beside the bed.

This behavior made the young man seem a little puzzled and uncomfortable. When he was led to the door, he always wanted to pull his little hand out of the big one covered with thin calluses.

This time, after taking the boy out of the room, the emperor turned back.

The door closed gently again.

"...well, father."

Hearing the sound of the door being closed, the young man on the bed knew about the visitor in the room, but he didn't show the slightest surprise about it.

Even though his eyes were covered by white silk, he also accurately revealed the identity of the man.

"Good day, Nathaniel."

The emperor nodded slightly.

It was still a more polite tone than usual.

The adult man frowned slightly, and continued in a deep magnetic voice.

"This time... Nathaniel, did you see anything?"

The young man sitting on the bed nodded slightly.

"My young brother has reached his full age and can see much more clearly than when he was born."

"His life experience...I think it is more consistent with the conjecture you mentioned before-although it is still inconclusive."

The emperor nodded silently, but his expression seemed to have no worries about the result.

This seemed to surprise the young man on the bed.

"Ansel's growth, and possible signs - will change at full adulthood."

"Maybe it's an Alpha, maybe it's an Omega—but it shouldn't be the sexual characteristics that are now restricted by special means that I don't understand."

"I am more sure of that than I have seen about his parentage."

And I'm afraid...the one with a higher probability will be—Omega.

But the young man sitting on the bed did not say these words.

Since that boy was younger...he seemed to smell a faint sweetness.

Perhaps, only an existence like him can perceive it in advance.

At this moment, the emperor seemed to be slightly surprised.

...the youngest son is not Beta...

If it differentiated into Alpha, it would be fine——

And if it's Omega...

The emperor's blue and cold eyes flickered for a moment, and then quickly returned to normal.

"...And other things, I think I can see it more clearly when Ansel grows up again."

The young man on the bed showed a faint look of exhaustion at this moment.

"...rest early, Nathaniel."

The emperor nodded slightly, nodded and said.

"Thank you, Father, for your concern."

The young man on the bed simply nodded.

The two ended the conversation between father and son in the same polite, almost alienated tone.

……

"Cat, I found you a present, I think you will like it!"

Just when he was about to go back to the study, the young boy was stuffed into his arms with something as big as his own height by his blond and blue-eyed younger brother.

The young man froze for a moment, hugging the fish-shaped doll that was about as tall as him and would almost block him behind his back, his fair and beautiful side cheeks began to turn red.

"I... I'm already ten years old, so I don't like... like... childish things like dolls..."

"is it?"

The blond-haired and blue-eyed elder brother smiled brightly, but at this moment, the smile started to be a bit nasty.

"Then if the cat doesn't like—"

The young prince whose biggest hobby is to bully cats intentionally makes gestures to bring back the fish-shaped doll.

"But...but...if you don't accept the gift that has already been delivered...it's too rude..."

The black-haired boy immediately hugged the fish-shaped doll a little tighter. If it really had animal ears and a tail, it would have stood up nervously.

The side cheeks and neck are all red, pursing his lips.

"I just...reluctantly...um...accepted..."

Then there was a young cat's soft voice like "Thank you brother" passing by, and when he looked up again, the boy had already run away with the doll in his arms.

"If I had known that I would be willing to call me that, I should have pushed the cat on top of the pile of fish dolls in the whole room and bullied it..."

This is a muttering to himself with slightly erratic eyes after the prince, who was dazed for a moment, figured out something.

After arriving in the study room, the court teacher who had finished the course congratulated the youngest student on his birthday briefly and rarely with a slight smile.

At that time, Tuantuan, who was soft like glutinous rice and had to rely on "cuteness to pass the test" when he was distracted, was already ten years old, and even the sophisticated professor felt a little emotional at this time.

The young man whose round and soft hands and limbs have also stretched into a slender body obediently thanked him.

When the teacher, who was full of thoughts and emotions about time, walked out, the young man heard the handsome and indifferent emperor brother "cough" in front of the desk.

The boy's dark eyes turned around suspiciously, and he saw the elder brother hesitate for a moment, then closed the cap of the extremely finely crafted pen in his hand, and placed it in front of his eyes.

"...your birthday present."

The young man blinked his eyes, thinking reasonably that the young man probably didn't want to give gifts at all, and this behavior really confused the cat.

Probably because of the young man's long silence, the cold second prince began to react.

The second prince "coughed" unnaturally again, and turned around.

"If you don't like it, you can also choose this as a gift."

The young brother's slender hands unhurriedly opened the desk drawer, and took out a velvet gift box from inside.

After opening it, it was placed in front of the boy.

It is impressively made of precious silk and velvet...

……

Attached neck strap.

……

Perhaps at this time, another statement that is more similar in the consciousness of a teenager can be used——

……

"Collar".

……

The feline blinked its eyes for a second, and almost immediately frowned on the spot, and escaped from the study door under the eyes of his brother.
