Waking up in the morning, Zick changed his dress and wore a formal dress.
Fixing his collars, He looked at himself in the mirror. His beautiful face was expressionless with no emotion at all. If anyone saw his face right at the moment they would have their heart beating faster.
With just those red eyes that shined unnaturally, almost like looking for prey, it could scare away people if he didn't control his expression at all times.
The cold face vanished and it was replaced by a smile and warm face.
'Perfect'
Zick had once tried smiling in front of the mirror in the old world as Noah. There he had noticed that his smile was out of place with the eyes and other facial movements, even he himself found it a little weird so he started practising smiling in front of the mirror whenever he got the time.
Seeing that there was no problem with his smile leaving the fact that his facial muscles hurt a little, it was to be expected as he is still an 8 and a half year old boy right now.
'There is no problem with my smile then.....the knights must have been surprised because the Old Zick never smiled and always had a gloomy look....'
"Sigh...."
Zick's room was dark as all the windows were covered by the curtains.
Walking towards one of the window curtains, Zick spread it open. Feeling the light across the closed window, he opened it with a simple push after unlocking it.
Feeling the sun rays upon his skin, He squinted his eyes and looked outside.
The sun of this world is hotter and brighter than the sun of earth.
All Zick could see outside was a wide field with flowers and grass in front of him, He could even see maids randomly doing their daily chores here and there. Seeing this, he only had one thought-
'I miss my shut-in life...'
Shaking his head, he concentrated on what he had to do, there was no worth crying about spilled milk.
Reaching the dining hall, Zick ate his breakfast which was felix root given by butler Von. He had already stopped getting bothered by the felix roots taste and smell.
His tutor would be arriving in some time so he was already waiting with anticipation in one of the main hall's sofas.
For some reason all the passing by maids looked towards Zick with a dissatisfied gaze.
All the maids in the estate have been facing a problem since yesterday which was caused by Zick without him knowing anything about it.
The kitchen of the estate is filled with the disgusting smell of felix root instead of freshly baked bread. freewebn(o)vel.com
Even the food store room is filled with a huge amount of felix root which makes the other ingredients smell too.
Zick didn't bother about even thinking of their reason for showing dissatisfaction about him.
'it doesn't matter....if they do something disrespectful towards me it would be off with their head after all'
The maid's punishment for showing disrespect to him was the same as knights.
Zick didn't have to wait for long as his tutor reached the estate in 10 minutes.
The tutor was in his 50s with some of his hair already growing white, His name was viscart.
Right now viscart was really surprised at what he was seeing, the 6th son of the melvix family, a garbage with no talent was smiling at him.
Viscart had never seen Zick smile so he was taken by surprise and Stood at where he was standing, he looked at Zick with wide eyes.
But he snapped out of it in a few seconds and greeted Zick.
"Young master Zick, Shall we start our lesson for today?"
Viscart said with a smile and soft tone. He is an experienced person who has been teaching noble sons and daughters for years so he knew how to conduct himself in front of nobles. Especially when it came to the Melvix family.
"I really want to know about the current situation of the nobles in Cravion kingdom"
"Sure, we can learn about that for today"
Though Viscart was again surprised by Zick asking him a question, he still managed to respond fluidly.
Zick had never asked him about anything in these three years.
While talking about the nobles, Zick would ask random questions sometimes. After talking about all the nobles of cravion kingdom for more than one hour, the class had come to an end.
Zick also got to know what he wanted.
'So I have time till I turn 15 year old....that means I will be in the academy with the protagonist and the heroines'
Still sitting on the sofa, Zick thought of what he should do in future to have the highest chance of survival.
His tutor Viscart was very famous as a teacher in the aristocratic society for teaching kids of young age so leaving Zick he still worked for a lot of other nobles.
Right now, Viscart is also a tutor of the daughter of the Duke Garcia, Stella garcia. Who was in the same age as Zick
Stella Garcia was a villainess character in the novel 'the hero of velveric fights demon lord'. She went to the academy at the same time as the protagonist.
but she wasn't much of a villainess in Zick's eyes as she didn't get in the way of the protagonist much.
Stella Garcia was madly in love with the second prince of the Cravion kingdom but the second prince was in love with one of the harem members of the Protagonist.
For this reason Stella would bully and humiliate her. This is where all the problem begins.
The story of the character Stella Garcia was vividly mentioned in the novel, even the reason and how she fell in love with the second prince was mentioned and explained in the novel.
With just this much information Zick could easily figure out how much time he had.
He already has his eyes on another thing that could increase his strength and potential.
'The dragon lord's heart'
In the novel, the dragon lord's heart was destroyed in an incident and had been broken in many pieces.
One of the supportive characters of the protagonist had gotten a piece of the heart. After eating it his potential had directly jumped to Master rank and it had even increased his strength a little.
Zick was planning on hoarding the whole heart.
The method that he was going to use after eating the felix root for one month can only increase his potential to a peak rank knight so he could only try eating this heart.
'I wonder what will happen if I eat the whole hearth.....it's a dragon lords heart after all'
