"B-but young master-"

"Save it! Do you plan to shadow us for the rest of our lives? What happens when I go somewhere you can't follow?" I looked coldly at Dean, my guard captain, who was showing me a pleading expression.

"Young master, there really is no need for you to start learning so-"

"Do you think I'm unaware of the danger in the world?" I cut him off again. I was tired of his hesitating on the matter our combat training. I was almost molested then came really damn close to being strangled to death again. Veronica's situation was also a problem. I was not allowing this to drag on any longer.

"But we can protect yo-"

"Ah?" I couldn't help it and let some of my anger leak out. "Dean, is the one giving orders here you or me?"

"Y-you, young matter," He was cowering now.

"Then this conversation is finished, isn’t it? You will arrange for our combat training post-haste or so. Help. Me. God..."

"... Yes, young master." His soul looked like it was about to fly away from his body, and his subordinates at his back there were trembling with pale faces.

I heard Ronnie whisper a soft "Hiiiiee~" behind me.

'Geez. I just got a bit angry. I'm not that scary, am I?'

As if in answer, a small blue box popped up directly in my line of sight.
