This didn’t really bring that much of a change in Astrid’s daily life. After all, 900,000 was still too few in comparison to the followers of the current number one in the Star List. Add that to the fact that he was only going back and forth from his apartment to the academy and vice versa, there wasn’t really any visible change in his life. Astrid himself didn’t take the increase in his followers as a huge feat. Because he was sure that many of those were just casual fans. Once he was embedded in another controversy, they would be the first one to leave. But that’s fine. He was just starting anyway. As time passed by and he released more and more work, the number of faithful fans would also increase. Speaking of fans, Astrid was going to meet his number one fan in just a few minutes. He was already dressed up and only needed to do one more thing before he’s good to go. He took out the instant hair color spray from the vanity cabinet and sprayed it on his hair. He ordered this hair spray specifically for this day. Although he didn’t think that his level of fame was on the level of being mobbed, his looks could still attract too much attention. Normally, he wouldn’t care much about this. There wasn’t even a time when he tried to wear a wig or change the color of his hair. Even when it started to become a hassle going out because of it. But since he was going out with Wulfric today, he didn’t even hesitate to buy this hair spray product. Not because he was afraid of getting recognized. But because he didn’t want the two of them to be disturbed but the unnecessary attention people would give them. Since he and Wulfric would meet this early, that probably meant that the other had already planned their itinerary for today. Or at least, he was sure that they wouldn’t be stuck in an indoor place for the rest of the day. If that was so, then it’s better to change his hair color just in case. After a few seconds, the strands on Astrid’s hair started to change color. Until the black turned into a dull brown. He looked at the mirror in front. His barely handsome appearance was now changed to a plain one. People now wouldn’t give him a second glance after seeing him. He actually wanted to wear a contact lens to change his eye color as well. But his eyes were pretty sensitive. He didn’t want to feel uncomfortable, especially not today. So, the next best thing was to wear non-prescription glasses. After all the preparations, he’s finally ready to go. But before that, Astrid left a note first for Reas. The other was still sleeping in the room. [Reas, I’ll be going out with a friend today. I’ve already prepared lunch and dinner for you. It’s in the refrigerator. You just have to reheat it.] He stuck it on the refrigerator so the other would immediately see it. But just in case, he still told his AI housekeeper – Xiao Lan – to remind Reas about it. Just as he walked out of his apartment, he received a message in his Terminal. [Wulfric: I’m already downstairs. Can I come up?] [Astrid: No, it’s alright. I’ll just go down myself.] After Astrid replied, he immediately walked to the elevator. Arriving at the ground floor, he didn’t waste time and just went straight out of the apartment building. An aircraft was parked just in front of it. Leaning on it was a tall man. His arms were folded across his chest, showing off his well-defined biceps. His blond hair was styled in that messy but sexy kind of way. Even his clothes were very stylish. Not in that overly dressed manner that was easy to end up looking garish. But in a chic yet simply style that prioritized comfort. The only problem was the man’s furrowed brows. He raised his hand as if wanting to mess his hair. But he stopped in time just as he was about to do it. He clucked his tongue as if annoyed. Astrid chuckled when he saw this. How adorable. ”Wulf!” he called. Yes, the blond man was Wulfric. As a disguise, he changed his hair color to blond and even his golden eyes were changed to blue. Although his facial features stayed the same, it’s still hard to be recognized as the only prince of the Empire. Why? It’s because no one would actually think that the fierce White Wolf of Alluna would actually dress up like this as if he was going on a date. Wait—Astrid stopped on his tracks. Did he actually consider this a date? ”Aster!” Wulfric called back. The other no longer frowned and a smile quickly appeared on his face. Like a blooming flower. Seeing this, Astrid no longer wondered if this was a date or not. It didn’t matter either way. The only important thing was the fact that the two of them would spend this day together. He smiled back at the other and continued walking. ———- At the Imperial Palace, inside the emperor’s chamber… The emperor stared at the picture sent to him by his aide. It was from the spy he put in his brother’s army. In the picture, Wulfric changed his hair color to blond and his eyes to blue. The other was wearing clothes that he would have never thought his brother would wear in this life. Before he could reply and ask his aide what’s the context behind this picture, a pair of strong arms suddenly hugged him from behind. Then, it was followed by a hoarse whisper; ”Go back to bed, Cyn.”
