At the academy, Philip, despite staying away from every kind of affair that surrounded Zora or Kael… he was confident that Kael wouldn't dare to do anything to him inside the academy grounds, whether Kael was from a top guild or not.
And here, Philip thought that he was still safer because of his father. This is Elysia, and he is the Crown Prince and the future Emperor. Who would have expected the one he bullied for years to turn out to be someone who can topple his fate in an instant?
Philip grew extremely anxious with that layer of protection no longer visible.
At once, whatever resentment he once harbored toward Prince Kael completely vanished from Philip's heart. All that remained was a single thought, heavy and urgent. He could only hope that Kael would be willing to forgive everything he had done.
Otherwise, if Kael truly wished to take his life, he would have no power to resist.
