Chapter 135: BRIBE

[Before Neoma and Winter's conversation…]

"WINTER NAM, wait," Nero said, grabbing Winter by the arm. Then he turned to Neoma and shooed her away. "Go with Tan Kim and wait for us in the botanical garden. I just have something to say to Winter first."

Neoma rolled her eyes at him. "Whatever. Let's go, Tteokbokki."

[That brat…]

"Your twin sister is feral, Nero," Winter said when only the two of them were left in the classroom. "She's kind of scary."

"I know," Nero said bluntly, then he dropped Winter's hand. "Anyway, I have a favor."

"I don't work for free, even if we're relatives."

"You know we're closer as strangers than relatives, right?"

The royal family tree of the Moonchester Kingdom was too complicated, so both Nero and Winter didn't bother to check how exactly they were related. It was enough to know that Nero's grandmother was related to the Moonchester Royal Family.
