"It matters to me, because Gary was my brother, and if my brother does not have any fault, it was my right to prove it. Moreover, this time, I single-handedly caught all of the assassins, so you guys need to reward me. But instead of awarding me, you guys even wanted to take the fruits of my brother's work," Sharky replied as he revealed a big secret.
And just this secret was revealed, everyone became shocked.
They have thought that Gary was some orphan or commoner. Who was brilliant and by luck became a True Knight.
But no, he was not a commoner, he was the son of Baron. It means, he also belongs to royalty.
And not only was he amazing, but his brother Sharky was also amazing.
Gary has already become the True Knight, and Sharky has become the Knight, he was also going to become the True Knight in the future.
Just in one family, there were two True Knights, and both of them were the younger generation. This family is really going to become stronger in the future.
"Brother," Gary said, as he looked towards Sharky. Since, Sharky has revealed his relationship, it means, his all works in the Alexa Royal City has failed.
Although he knew that he was going to hand over his duty. Still, he has some hope.
But now Sharky has openly revealed their relationship, which means, there is no chance to continue from here. The people here will become cautious of them.
Parizaad has also become shocked hearing the revelation, but her shocked expression also turns into something interesting. She knew there was something special about Sharky.
Although she is amazed by Gary's opinion and his strategy. Even recently he is about to clean the city.
And put the things called dust bin, and make the toilet, so no one can throw and release their waste anywhere. They can only throw in the dustbin and release their waste in the toilet.
And if someone was found releasing or throwing their waste in the open, then they will be fined a heavy sum.
But although she knew that was Gary's idea, from her intuition, she believes that's was not his idea, but someone else's.
And today, although it was not confirmed, she believes all of the ideas and strategies, which Gary has shown. It all comes from the person in front of him.
Parizaad looked over at Sharky with an interesting gaze, and asked, "Okay, I will not take over the duty of Gary. And you can also tell what you wanted the benefits for catching the Assassins."
All of the surrounding people were shocked, this was the first time they were seeing the different images of the Princess. From her, cruel and vicious image.
Even if someone by mistake said something, which was not honorific for the Princess Parizaad. Then, cutting his tongue is the minimum punishment.
But this time, she had a different expression, even Parizaad didn't know why the anger from inside her vanished.
"Forget about the Security department, many people still blame my brother, because they all are hypocrites. So, you can give this chance to anyone, since we are not short of money."
"But about the reward, I want you to grant me the Baron Title, but just for now, in future, I want more," Sharky said, as he was staring at her, smelling her fragrance, and didn't move any little steps back.
Parizaad started smiling, but no one knew whether it was a genuine smile, or in anger. "Ok, I will grant you, but your father is already Baron, so in future you will obviously become the Baron, so why did you want it the same? If you want, I can even give you a Viscount position."
"Just do as I said, don't put the things from your mind," Sharky replied without thinking anything, since he has a habit of always ordering others, and not taking the advice from them.
Only in front of her sister Emma. He can keep his voice down, and listens to her advice.
"You," Parizaad again became angry, but while controlling her anger, "Okay, I will grant you the Baron Title, but for the territory, you need to acquire yourself."
She said, while holding onto Sharky's hand in front of everyone. She pulled Sharky to one side and had him sit in a corner.
"You can sit here, and not move anywhere," Parizaad looked at Sharky with an angry smile.
"I have other guests who I need to entertain, so I'll be leaving now. I'll come and find you after a while, and grant you the title," she said in an angry tone, but it was also like a tone, when a wife became angry with her husband and scolded him.
The people of the noble circles were shocked, they didn't understand what was happening here. Even though this guy just shamed the Princess.
She was still calm and smiling at him. Parizaad's actions were a bit over the top, and it was easy to overthink her actions.
After bringing Sharky to that corner, Parizaad turned and sensed Jasmine's gaze.
Jasmine was standing in the corner, looking at her furiously as if she was accusing her of breaking her promise.
It was her who had liked Sharky first, so why was Parizaad making a move on him?
Sensing her little sister's gaze, Parizaad only smiled and did not pay much attention to her.
So what if her little sister liked him? It was not as if they were together already.
Moreover, even if they were together, this was the first guy, whoever in her life, dared to confront her, dared to call her hypocrite.
And openly asked for benefits. If she will not teach him the lesson, how will she control him in the future? For her, nothing was impossible.
After sitting down, Sharky could sense many people's gazes on his body.
Sensing these gazes, Sharky knew, some of them will start fearing him from today, or some of them will envy him today. And of course, some of them will become jealous of him.
"But whatever, now I have completed my initial goal, for becoming the Baron, then next will be Viscount and then King. So, maybe Princess Parizaad is the most feared person for the other people, but for me, she is just a step to make me the King." He thought, while sensing the gazes around him, some of which contained hostility, he replied back by just smiling.
Looking at the extremely beautiful, pure and passionate Parizaad at the center of the banquet, Sharky's gaze was calm as he inwardly decided she would be his important chess piece, till he didn't become the King.
Her beautiful body, her beautiful curves, everything was good about her. She will be perfect for his wife, and give birth to his child.
And he continuously stared at her and her beautiful curves, never trying to hide his gaze.
As time passed, the atmosphere in the banquet became more and more enthusiastic.
A group of dancers showed off their exquisite dancing skills, further bolstering the mood.
These dancers were all very pretty, tall, and slim; it was evident that they had been especially chosen.
The dresses they wore were very thin, and certain parts of their bodies could occasionally be seen. Adding on their various dance moves, they gave off a very unique feeling.
All around, many people were staring at these dancers.
As the banquet continued, the smell of alcohol began to fill the hall, and some people laughed and casually brought dancers into their embraces.
There were many people who did this, and Princess Parizaad turned a blind eye to this, but whenever someone invited her to dance, she declined it. Because she didn't want any attachment with these people. She didn't want any little bit of stain on her character.
However, while she didn't dance with the other, her gaze also from time to time noticed at the Sharky. She still didn't understand how the anger which was inside her for him, started vanishing, even though she didn't know why.
And instead of anger, some other things started awakening inside her, even though she didn't know what was happening. She started looking at him with a gentle and tender gaze.
Sharky was still sitting in the corner by himself, with a perfectly straight posture.
Because of the alcohol and the environment, most people's clothes were quite disorderly, but he still sat with perfect posture like a straight sword, and he was very eye-catching.
He was a perfect contrast to the rest of the crowd.
Parizaad could not help but feel quite surprised. Just as she was about to walk over, she saw a little figure sneak towards Sharky.
This girl was only around 15 years old and looked somewhat similar to Parizaad, but there were also big differences between them.
Looking at that girl, Parizaad was surprised and inwardly shook her head.
"H-Hello…"
Jasmine came before Sharky and mustered up her courage as she looked at Sharky and said.
"Do you still remember me?" she asked as she looked at Sharky earnestly.
"It's you?" Looking at Jasmine, Sharky was a little bit surprised but just a little.
He gave a slight smile and asked, "Why are you here? Is one of your seniors a guest here?" He asked softly.
Jasmine stared for a moment before hurriedly nodding.
Standing there and looking at Sharky, she did not know what to say.
The scene became a bit awkward.
Sharky smiled and said, "Would you like to have a seat? It'd be quite tiring to keep standing. If you don't mind, you can sit next to me."
He looked at Jasmine with a gentle expression, looking like a courteous gentleman. All of his actions could make those around him feel favorably towards him.
Compared to Jasmine, Sharky was much better at making conversation.
Very soon, they began to freely chat, and each of them told the other their stories, seeming quite happy.
"My family comes from the south. Every autumn, there will be beautiful violet flowers there, as well as some delicious fruits," Sharky smiled, "I want to invite you there, would you like to come to me?"
Jasmine smiled and nodded.
"Can you give me your address then?"
Sharky's expression was just as warm, and he said softly, "Next time my father's carriages arrive, I'll have some people send some over for you."
Jasmine hesitated.
Parizaad did not say that she could reveal her identity to Sharky.
It was just that those who knew of her identity would change their attitude towards her. No matter who it was, they would become incredibly courteous and wary, like how they treated Parizaad.
She did not want Sharky to become like that.
As such, she hesitated and said, "I normally live at big brother Kelly's residence. If you want to send anything to me, you can just deliver it there."
"I see…" Sharky looked a bit surprised before smiling, "Very well."
Jasmine did not know, but even though she felt that she had covered it quite well, Sharky was already quite sure about her identity.
After all, it was not that difficult to guess.
Even though there were many nobles in the Alexa Royal City, there were not many top-tier nobles.
With Sharky's personality, he had long since investigated those people in the Alexa Royal City and knew much about them.
Of those people, there were very few people similar to Jasmine, moreover her figure is similar to Parizaad. It was already quite easy to guess, but it was just that Sharky did not have enough information to come to a solid conclusion.
However, after everything that had happened, as well as some information from Jasmine herself, Sharky could essentially guess at her real identity.
She was Princess Parizaad's little sister, the third in line to the throne, Jasmine, as well as the current King's youngest daughter.
It was said that because of certain reasons, Princess Jasmine did not go out much and often stayed within the palace to keep her father company.
Moreover, because she shared both the same mother with Princess Parizaad, they were quite close and similar.
Sharky thought to himself. From this, he suspected that Princess Parizaad had invited him to this banquet not to just test him but to see if he and Jasmine could get along.
But, it also allowed him to show his power, and claim the Baron Title.
"What are you thinking about?" Looking at Sharky, Jasmine felt somewhat curious.
