chapter-249
Alex closed his lips and stared at the Emperor's expression.
He could see a large grin on his face and tilted his head with a confused look.
'Why do I feel that he is enjoying the situation? Am I hallucinating?'
'Maybe he is thinking about a cruel punishment and wasn't able to control his excitement a few imagining my miserable end,' Alex muttered nodding his head.
The Emperor turned his head and spoke, "What do the court officials think about this?""I would like to hear your opinion."
The court officials put down their heads like frightened mice.
They have just seen The Emperor agreeing to Alex's request and now asking for their opinion about punishing him.
No one wanted to take the risk and speak something on this matter which may be used against them later.
If it was anyone else, they were sure that he would be killed on their spot but not only did the Emperor not look angry, he didn't even scold or reprimanded Alex.
It proves that although The Emperor might hate Alex he can't bear to punish him harshly as King Alex was his flesh and blood.
Moreover, no one knows how important King Alex's mother was to the Emperor.When King Alex was born, many spoke and spread rumours calling him an illegitimate child but all those who said those words weren't able to see the sun the next day. This proves that she had an important place in the Emperor's heart and no matter what the royal cannot be slandered.
And what exactly was her position.No one was sure about it.
Kevin watched everyone who didn't even raise their head to look at him. He nodded in satisfaction seeing fear in their eyes.
"Minister Clark, what do you think of this?"
Small beads of sweat started to form on his head, and he raised his head and said"Your Majesty, King Alex's forceful entry is a sign of his insolence."
"King Alex could have asked for justice in the Public Safety bureau but coming here with a head clear proves that he had no respect for his Majesty."
"He is simply uncultured and ill-mannered who needs to teach and be punished well."
"Hmm!"
Kevin nodded his head and spoke, "You are correct."
"I also agree with you."
Alex spoke suddenly to everyone's surprise.
"I haven't been taught well and lack in the education department. Alas, no one wanted to teach a disowned child like me."
"Even his father threw him away, unable to handle him so who could be gutsy enough to handle and teach me normal courtesy."
"I don't even know noble etiquettes and history."
"What a bad luck?" Alex spoke, pitying himself.
Kevin's lips twitched uncontrollably and he felt that this guy was targeting him intentionally.
"I have decided."
His voice spread far and wide and resonated in the hall.
"King Alex seriously lacks ethics. His behaviour is unfit for that of a King. Swallow knowledge will not only hamper one but also one Kingdom."
"So, to fill up your knowledge and make up for the lack, you are punished to attend the academy and stay in it until you can graduate."
"Until you graduate, you don't have the qualifications to be crowned," Kevin spoke with a loud grin on his face.
Alex who was waiting for the punishment eagerly suddenly felt the world around him becoming lifeless.
He thought that he might be punished heavily and might be injured but this...
A bright student who had already passed the university with flying colours due to some circumstances was forced to enter the school once again.
How would that person feel? This was what Alex was feeling now.
A deep sense of embarrassment crawled up within him.
While Alex was in shock, the nobles and officials almost fell on their backs hearing the judgement.
Those who wanted Alex to be punished severely were at a loss for words while some who were neutral or reasoned with Alex looked at him with pity.
The Princes and Princess stared at Alex with an inexplicable gaze.
One may infer Emperor stand on Alex from this decision itself.
Normally, a person entering like this is punishable by offence and even if they would be punished severely, they would at least be locked up but this guy wasn't punished and in a way, wasn't it a reward?
All the connections are forged in the academy and it was the stepping stone for them to form a base in the future.
And Alex entering the academy was similar to giving him wings.
"I refuse," Alex shouted.
"You can put me on house arrest or whip me a thousand times or something else but forcing me to enter the academy is an insult. I am already a grown man and married. Don't you feel disheartened stopping a good husband from taking care of his wife? As a husband, I have certain duties I have to attend to, lest I may make my wife dissatisfied."
"Aren't you sowing discord in my family?"
Everyone almost choked when he heard his words.
'Shameless.'Alice muttered and turned her gaze away.
At this moment, she wanted to declare that she didn't know this guy.
Only his big brother could speak such shameless words in such an eloquent manner and with a straight face.
Kevin wanted to control his anger and spoke.
"Did I ask for your opinion?"
"I am issuing an order not asking for an opinion."
"Moreover, grown man my foot. All students attending the academy are from 18-21 and as far as I remember you are still 19."
"Just how did you become a grown man?"
"And according to the pact, every Prince who wanted to be King had to graduate from the academy so that some hillaby wouldn't come and sit on the throne."
"Rules mean rules, those who don't follow are fools and fools have no right to sit on Thrones."
"So, go and study properly and don't make more mess. For all those bitter years you have suffered, I will forgive you and overlook your imprudence this time."
"Now disperse," Kevin shouted and his figure quickly disappeared from the throne leaving everyone bewildered.
