Irion felt his heart rising, and a powerful sense of embarrassment assaulted him as he saw people looking at him and mumbling among each other. He couldn't help but clenched his teeth before shouting. "Are you questioning my company when you brought a criminal to this gathering!" Although Irion's behavior was unworthy of a member of a Royal Family, the news of a criminal in the feast was shocking, and everybody focused on Krane before turning their eyes toward Cain. Cain remained calm as he took another sip from his cup. Unlike Irion, he was the epitome of composure amid pressure. "I knew you were a fool, but I did not believe you were also deaf." "You little..." Irion was so furious that he nearly jumped out of his seat, but upon seeing the eyes of the Imperial Princes and Princesses, he managed to stay seated. Cain softly shook his head since the man had more restraint than expected but carried on. "I clearly stated that I will be using military criminals in my war efforts, so it makes sense that I will have one by my side. After all, a good leader always gets familiar with his troops, but someone like you who has never set foot on a battlefield would not know that." Irion's face froze, and silence reigned after Cain uttered those words. Not only did he give a perfect response for having a convicted criminal by his side, but he also made sure to repeatedly embarrass the Fourth Azure Prince for his lack of war experience. The Fourth Azure Prince trembled as he felt how no one cared about the fact that Cain had brought a criminal, and some even silently praised his wartime accomplishments, while the rest only looked at him with mockery, as if they were watching a clown. In his mind, not even the Imperial Family could embarrass him since he belonged to the Azure Royal Family, so the fact that a mere commoner dared to make fun of him was more than he could handle.

The Third Imperial Prince's smile did not falter during the entire exchange since he did not care about Irion's reputation, but his eyes began twitching as he heard those words. He had been happy to present the subject of military criminals to assist the Fourth Azure Royal Prince to embarrass Cain. Still, he never expected this one to be so foolish as to bring the Crown Prince into the spotlight. A burning rage appeared in the Third Imperial Prince's eyes as he turned toward Irion. 'Fucking trash. Had I known you would cause so much trouble, I would have rejected your treasures and sent you away.' The Third Imperial Prince wanted nothing more than to kick out the Irion, but it was already too late. "It was the First Collapsing Pillar who made the duo leave. I am far from enough to handle entities like the Dark Kings alone." People in the room softly nodded as they heard that since they would never believe that a seventeen-year-old man could face two Dark Kings. Yet, the tales of the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar were already legendary, and that man was more than powerful enough to face entities like the Shadow King or Blood King. "I see. Still, the fact that the First Collapsing Pillar came to your rescue proves how highly the Collapsing Lightning Duke thinks of you. Who knows what position you will take in the Imperial Lightning Fort in the future, having one Collapsing Lightning Pillar as your teacher and another as your guard." The eyes on Cain changed as they heard those words. Although there were seventy-two Sectors, those at the level of the Collapsing Lightning Sector could be counted on the fingers in one hand. Cain was clearly in high esteem by the Collapsing Lightning Duke, and it would not be odd for someone of his talent to be groomed to become the next Sector Duke. If that was the case, they had to establish their connection with him now, or it would be too late by the time he rose to a higher position in the empire. The Fourth Imperial Prince's face showed nothing, but a sharp glint appeared in his eyes as he stared at the Second Imperial Princess. Those words did not harm Cain at all but would make everybody else go after him, and it was not like there was a proper relationship between the two that could withstand that pressure. Cain was also smart enough to detect the intention of the Second Imperial Princess, but he did not care. He did not bother with the schemes and machinations of the Imperial Children. After that toast, normal conversation returned, but people's eyes kept turning to Cain. He had already become the center of attention. "Young Hero Laurifer, people keep praising your skills, so why don't you give us a little demonstration? I am sure we would all like to see your feats." The Fourth Imperial Prince and the rest of his group could not help but frown as they heard that, and he was not alone. The Third Imperial Prince was asking for Cain to entertain them while they ate, which was extremely rude. "Kamel, you should consider your words." "Hahaha, brother, there is no need to react so fiercely to such a small proposition." Kamel, the Third Imperial Prince, smiled as he uttered those words. He did not like all the fame Cain was getting, so he wanted to humiliate this one a little. Cain's eyes were cold as he stared at the Third Imperial Prince, and he spoke with a cold voice. "I am not a clown, nor do I play tricks. I think the Third Imperial Prince is mistaking me for his friends." Kamel's eyes widened, and a flash of rage appeared in them when he heard that. He knew that Cain might refuse him, but he did not expect him to be so bold as to utter those words. The rest of the Imperial Princes and Princesses were also surprised, and while they did not care about the reaction of the Third Imperial Prince, all of them turned to the Crown Prince, wondering how he would react. "¡HAHAHAHAHA!"
