Seduce the hero's mother (GL)

Chapter 122: Chapter 19. Revenge on the crown prince



The sudd appearance of Eric Holmes in their path was a real surprise to Philip.

While his knights were ready to pounce on the crown prince at any second, the nobleman himself folded his hands in his pockets and was clearly now mocking. A contemptuous look was cast upon the lad's appearance, and the smile on his lips spread ev wider.

— Your Highness, I'm ev a little sorry you've come to this.

— …

— I remember that all the high society used to tremble at the authority of the Imperial family,» he wt on, «and now… Do you sell potatoes?

Saying the last phrase, the son of the baron could not stand it and laughed out loud. Serge behind Philip shuddered. While the prince himself became more and more tse.

— I do vy your new life, Your Highness,» he said with a sneer, «You should have be born a commoner to begin with, not a crown prince.

The vein on Philip's forehead swelled with anger.

— You little bastard! — He barked, «What do you want from me?!

Eric Holmes continued to stand with the same satisfied grimace. Th he stated the obvious:

— Your Highness, it will be ough for me if you remember today for the rest of your life.

— Wha…?!

— Three years ago. I want you to remember this day as I did three years ago.

Philip shuddered.

During his time at the Royal Academy, Philip had done something he never regretted later. Simply because he didn't think it would ever come back to him.

Eric Holmes himself had waited a long time for this day. Waiting for the momt wh the crown prince would be completely defseless and the power of the ruling family could no longer cover him.

Now he was nothing but a miserable commoner with whom he could do anything he wanted.

— Your Highness, today I will make you very sorry for what happed.

Wh the lad recalled the evts of the past, he was angry every time. He had indeed almost died that day. But luckily the professor found him in time, and Eric was saved in time.

After that beating, Eric had to recover for a year. He had to leave the academy for that time, and his father paid for the expsive treatmt. But, most disgusting of all… No one ever punished the bastard.

Philip Blanche wt unpunished simply because he is a crown prince and the son of a king. And Eric Holmes… The son of a baron. The differce in their social status was so great that despite all his anger, the young man's father could do nothing.

For some pathetic baron to accuse the king's own son of misbehavior… It seemed simply unthinkable. And it could have ded with ev more dire consequces if his words were perceived as a slander against the imperial family.

Thus, Erik simply had to swallow the insult. But he never expected, after all this time, that the opportunity for revge would prest itself to him.

The Blanche dynasty no longer ruled this country. And the crown prince himself is presumed dead. There would be nothing wrong with Eric simply confirming that status for him.

But at the same time… Just finishing off this scumbag sounds too trivial. Erik wanted to mock him a little.

— 'Your Highness, I'll give you a chance, ' the aristocrat grinned, 'If you kneel before me right now and apologize, I might spare you.

Philip flared up.

— You…! — he held out a finger trembling with anger against him.

— I'm in a good mood, so I'll be magnanimous. Just do it.

While the baron's son mocked him oply, Philip finally couldn't stand it. In fact, he didn't want to die or be beat at all. But to kneel before this worm… The crown prince would not do such a thing, ev if his life hung in the balance.

Pride overwhelmed him from within. Finding himself at the very edge of a precipice, and in such a case, Philip was not going to lose his dignity. For if indeed he did, it would indeed be better to die afterwards.

— No way! — He declared, «I'm a crown prince, not some mutt like you!

Erik Holmes felt anger. This guy was already at the bottom, and yet he continued to boast of his status! Ev though there was nothing left of him.

— Don't be an idiot,» the nobleman grumbled.

Philip snorted.

— 'I don't care. I was born as a crown prince, and I'll die as a crown prince. And you'll always be the son of some trash.

This time Erik was really angry.

— That bastard…!

He swung his fist to hit him himself, but at that momt Serge jumped out in front of him. The girl, who had be frighted and was hiding behind Philip, had volunteered to protect him, ssing the danger. She spread her arms out to cover the boy with her body.

They were both very surprised.

— Please don't do this! — she begged.

Holmes cooled down a little and grinned.

— I did not expect that ev such a man as you would have a defder, — he summed up.

Meanwhile Philip seemed to be discontted.

— I didn't ask for one.

Serge hoped to prevt a fight betwe them, so that afterwards they could go home peacefully. But unfortunately, that never happed. Despite the girl's efforts and treaties to stop it all, Philippe did not give up. The boys shouted insults at each other from behind her back.

— Scumbag, if you were hoping to scare me with that, that's just ridiculous! — The crown prince stated smugly.

Eric laughed sarcastically.

— In that case, we can check it out right now.

— I will never kneel down in front of a lowlife like you!

— That's fine. Th I'll make you do it myself!

Just a few seconds later, the two boys were already pounding on each other with their fists. Eric's knights simultaneously wanted to protect their master, and at the same time they wanted to beat the crown prince harder. And in the whole mess, poor Serge twirled as best she could, trying to save Philip.

Soon, the noise of this scuffle was spreading all over the street. The two aristocrats in the dark cloaks who were walking past it froze in surprise.

— What is going on there? — Razor was tak aback.

— Who cares,» Maxie shrugged, «Maybe the homeless people are fighting over food.

But the other prince was still tse, watching the commotion. He couldn't figure out exactly who was fighting there. But obviously there were a lot of people.

— We can't leave it like this,» he said worriedly, «They'll kill each other!

— So let them kill each other.

Razor was astonished at the indifferce on Maxie's part. Appartly, this was not the first time the girl had witnessed such a sce, and it was not unusual for her. Commoners could put up a fight over anything. Ev over a can of beer.

But the guy couldn't let it go anyway.

— Why don't we go break them up? — he suggested.

— Are you kidding me? — Maxie snorted. «You're gonna waste our time with whoever the hell it is?

— But… There are people there…» She sighed heavily.

Maxie sighed heavily. It was momts like this wh she understood why Razor and Lerian were frids. After all, if the girl had witnessed such a sce, she would have insisted on an intervtion just the same.

— All right…» Maxie gave in, «But I'm not going to get into this mess personally. Let's just get the guards here.

The second prince sighed in relief.

— Good!

The young m made their way to the nearest guard post, which were stationed all over the city, keeping watch over public order.

After that, Maxie and Razor were going to seclude themselves in some cafe to discuss an important conversation.
