"So, you're saying this was all a ruse to get our attention, and let you two go into the dungeons?"
"Yep."
Evan and Laurene replied while kneeling on the floor in front of the Duke and the Emperor. They had both changed into more suitable clothes and were imdiately called over to the Duke's office where they were currently being punished.
After nearly ten minutes of scolding, they finally got the chance to explain themselves, and that they did.
Evan spoke about his plan to get their attention so they'd notice the talent possessed by the both of them and let them go to the dungeons to level up and gain experience so as not to put it to waste.
"That doesn't an I'd let you go to the dungeon Evan."
The Duke spoke up with slight annoyance in his voice, he was angry with Evan for pulling such a stunt in the presence of the emperor and even dragging the princess along.
'He never acted so recklessly before, what happened to him? He's been different since this morning.'
The Duke noticed sothing wrong with his son, however, he could have never imagined that his real son was dead and his body had been possessed by soone else.
Even if Evan told him this, he was more likely to suspect Evan of being intoxicated by Alcohol rather than believe him.
Hearing the Duke's statent, Evan heaved a sigh before replying.
"Let's be real Father, until I go to the academy at 12, there's nothing left for to learn.
You know how much of a natural-born genius I am and how many teachers I've made quit due to my genius."
"Wow, Boast much."
"I am indeed a genius though?"
'At least the original 'Evan Del Eris' was...'
In reply to that, Laurene just clicked her tongue and shook her head. Evan on the other hand, continued speaking.
"Anyway, as I said earlier, we both know you wouldn't let us into the dungeons until we've awakened our skills at age ten so I ca up with this idea to make you notice our talents.
Look at Laurene, she's not even level ten and she casted tier two magic, sothing those over level 30 are capable of.
When she awakens her skills, she'd be a force to be reckoned with.
As for , look at my swordsmanship, it is better than most kids my age out there, I dare say I can even beat so of the lower levelled knights too.
Letting us go to the dungeon now would be good, when we awaken our skills, we'd be even stronger, isn't that a good thing for the empire?"
Evan had done two things with his speech, firstly he had almost convinced the Duke who believed he had awakened his paladin skill, that he had not.
In other words, by saying 'when we awaken our skills at age ten', he was hinting at the fact that they had not awakened their skills.
Secondly, by saying it was good for the empire, he was appealing to the emperor not as the fiancée of his daughter, but as the heir of a dukedom.
Even still, the emperor was still not going to agree, it was too dangerous for them without skills. He was about to refuse, until the door was opened and a loud voice rang out.
"What's the stress, Your majesty? Let them go!"
Two n walked into the room, both wearing light armour.
One was a man with Black hair and eyes, he looked kind and easygoing, the other was a younger man with blonde hair and brown eyes, he was wearing a cold expression, one that could be seen as more mature than his physical age.
Seeing the two of them, Evan's eyes widened in surprise as he instinctively activated his full appraisal.
Laurene noticed this and tried to warn him not to, but she wasn't fast enough.

Evan was shocked.
'They're the real deal!'
In the ga, six of the seven heroes were customizable support characters. The player picked one of them and the other six were support characters that could be customized.
The player started off with just one character. During their adventure, they would end up eting the other mbers of the seven heroes and recruit them as support characters.
The eting points were randomized. However, the countries on the map where the player would et them were the sa, just different cities every ti.
This was why although Evan was aware that there was a mber of the seven Heroes in the Great Western Empire by the system, he did not know their exact location.
Finding the princess could only be called a stroke of luck.
However, besides that, there was not much that was different from the ga. In other words, the surrounding countries and the important figures in those countries were exactly the sa.
Seeing the two n in front of him, Evan was shocked. He didn't expect to et two major figures here.
The Great Western Empire was at peace with the Great Eastern Empire, however, one could not be sure when war would break out.
In fact, there was a main quest scenario in the ga where war broke out between the two empires, at that ti the both empires revealed their strongest cards.
The Great Western Empire had the Ten Great Swordsn.
The Great Eastern Empire had the Seven Star Generals.
The two n in front of Evan were the First and Fourth Sword of the Ten Great Swordsn. The Thompson Brothers.
They were the younger brothers of the Marquis of Thompson, fad as two of the greatest sword geniuses of their generation. They also possessed Unique skills too.
In the Main quest War Scenario, the player had to gain the trust of the two of them in order to stop the war and minimize the casualties. They were also helpful when faced with the demon king's Army Generals in the Final Quest.
Both of them were existences over level 380. Adventurer-wise, they'd be considered Peak A rank, Finley was already S Rank.
When Evan saw them, he recognized them and instinctively appraised them to be sure they were the real deal.
However, that made Evan's plan of fooling the emperor and the Duke into thinking they had no skills, fly out the window.
"As I thought, you really did awaken your skills already. You're deviants."
