"I already have a fiancée."
—The implication being, that person definitely isn't it.
Reggie chuckled but didn't respond.
The two tacitly moved past the topic to avoid stepping on a mine.
As they were about to enter Mayer Restaurant, Louis suddenly said:
"That person just now was the Empire's Second Princess, Olivia."
Reggie was instantly startled.
"The wisdom of the Empire? I've truly heard much about her!"
Louis almost lost his breath and said irritably:
"Could you please not mention that nickname."
The term "wisdom" almost became as overused as "Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix" in his previous life.
He genuinely wanted to drag out the person who coined that nickname and give them a beating.
But Reggie's thoughts were quite simple.
The Second Princess Olivia, who was crowned with the wisdom of the Empire along with Louis.
The news circulating from the Imperial Capital Daily left him amazed.
He was truly impressed after witnessing Louis' charisma this time.
The students of the Nine Swords discipline also went along quite willingly.
In the past week, this sorted out roughly like this—
Day 1: A monster from the Ense Royal Family approached Saint Louis.
Day 2: An unspeakable arena Demon King flattened the Nine Swords discipline.
Day 3: A combat freak resembling a demon lord initiated extreme training.
Day 4: Louis Charles Julius ascended to the Sword Saint's assistant.
Day 5: Teacher Louis won the wholehearted respect of the Nine Swords students.
Day 6: The supreme Prince of the Empire ascended the throne of the Nine Swords students today.
If Louis knew the Nine Swords students were privately making French jokes, he would probably laugh out loud.
Nevertheless, this shows Louis' special status among the Nine Swords students now.
It's natural for Reggie to think this way.
In fact, it wasn't until news came out recently that the students at the academy were surprised to find out that the Empire's Second Princess had long been studying at their academy.
—In reality, many people didn't notice because the little swan often stayed asleep for long periods of time and didn't come to school regularly.
Ironically, this "reservedness" of the little swan earned her even more praise.
Especially upon discovering that the Second Princess, who was frail and sickly, had already become a Level 8 Mage, which was even more astonishing.
"She truly is the wisdom of the Empire."
—From the students of the Saint Louis Mage discipline.
...
But soon, Reggie felt as if he had gotten himself into trouble.
He looked at the group of classmates in front of him with a headache, hesitated for a moment, and blinked to say:
"How about squeezing a bit?"
The crowd burst into laughter.
"Reggie, you just had to show off, and now look at the mess you've gotten into."
"Who would've thought you'd have such a large following one day."
"When he invited me, I didn't want to come, but when I heard Louis was here, I had to join the fun."
"Funny enough, me too."
"Same here."
"Not me, I only came over because I heard this guy booked a private room at Mayer Restaurant."
"Funny enough, right after hearing about it, I even skipped lunch intending to hit the foodie jackpot here."
...
With everyone talking, Reggie's forehead was sweating profusely.
He stubbornly said: "Who would've thought all of you would show up this time."
Reggie, known as the social butterfly of the Nine Swords.
Ordinarily, he's most enthusiastic about mingling with people.
The students of the Nine Swords department all had pretty good relations with Reggie.
Being known by nearly everyone in every class across three professional disciplines and over twenty classes is no small feat.
But those who've interacted with a socialite would understand that even socialites can't please everyone.
Something even RMB couldn't achieve is surely impossible for any human.
Even when inviting people for a meal, you can't guarantee everyone will show up on time.
This time, Reggie wanted the scene to be lively, so he went on a crazy spree inviting people.
Because usually, around five to eight people wouldn't show up anyway.
After all, these young students were close to Reggie but not necessarily acquainted with other students of the same grade.
Not everyone is willing to interact with relatively unfamiliar people.
And especially with so many people.
Louis even spotted Ali, the wild cat, mixed in the crowd. Upon catching his gaze, she waved hello in a very friendly manner.
Reggie wanted to cry but couldn't cry.
This amount of people meant that the student group setting off for the Tunisian Republic next month had all shown up.
A portion had come for Louis.
Some had heard about the free meal, intending to come for the "buffet."
Others were just here for Mayer Restaurant's cuisine.
Or simply all three.
Even in the biggest room he painstakingly booked, it would still feel cramped.
Louis looked at Alice and whispered:
"When did you find the time to attend this kind of gathering?"
Alice smiled, seeming to have toned down her wild side a bit in front of so many people. With a change into casual attire, she appeared somewhat more ladylike.
She snorted and said:
"I do have good friends at the academy, you know."
A moment later, she added:
"And she's been in a bit of a bad state lately, so she asked me to come and keep her company."
Louis glanced at the girl standing next to Alice and didn't say much.
He went up and patted Reggie on the shoulder and said:
"How about I take over?"
Reggie looked at Louis in confusion:
"Bro, I'll call you bro, do you have a solution?"
Louis nodded, "I can solve the problem from the root."
Reggie was startled and instinctively said:
"Bro, you don't intend to get rid of some of us right here, do you?"
As he spoke, cold sweat started to run down his face.
The fearsome ring king planning to directly settle excess students outside the ring, that's quite a Ganges River scenario!
Louis said irritably:
"This is not the time to discuss martial techniques with you all."
Reggie sweated even more:
"But when you're discussing martial techniques, you're not shy about taking action."
Louis grinned:
"That's when reasoning doesn't work, and I go straight for fist logic."
"Alright, alright, I can't argue with you."
Reggie gave up and said directly:
"What's your solution? Hurry up, standing here with all these people, our classmates' eyes are shooting daggers."
Louis sympathetically patted his shoulder and said:
"Ah, the unique troubles of being socially skilled."
"Step aside, let me handle it."
Louis walked forward, and the staff at the front desk came up immediately and said:
"Guest, what do you need?"
At this time, another supervisor came over, instinctively wiped her eyes and said:
"His Highness Louis?"
She pulled the server aside and said:
"This kid is new and hasn't met you yet."
Louis smiled gently and said:
"No worries, now she knows. Her service attitude is quite good."
The supervisor nodded quickly and said:
"Are you going to open the Iron Horse Glacier?"
Louis pointed at the Saint Louis Academy students who were looking his way and said:
"With so many people, we can't fit without opening the Iron Horse Glacier. Mayer didn't come over for dinner today, did he?"
The supervisor smiled and said:
"Of course, you know that the Iron Horse Glacier is always available for you."
"If Mr. Mayer were here, he'd also concede the private room for you."
——Naturally, the supervisor didn't know that Louis and Mayer were the same person.
Louis nodded and said:
"Alright, you go ahead and prepare."
After saying this, he returned and said to Reggie:
"Let's go to the Iron Horse Glacier private room on the rooftop."
Reggie looked at Louis with an extremely strange gaze.
"Bro, I call you bro, you can book the Iron Horse Glacier private room?"
Louis said puzzledly:
"Why can't I book it?"
Reggie, lightheaded, said:
"No, I thought the top-level private room at Mayer Restaurant wasn't open to the public?"
Louis suddenly realized:
"Ah, you're talking about that. That's because it's a private room."
"The Iron Horse Glacier is a special private small restaurant for Mayer and me, for personal use, so of course, it won't accept reservations."
Reggie's mouth gaped slightly:
"But I heard the Marquis York can only book the Iron Horse Glacier when hosting special guests!"
Louis, unfazed, said:
"Isn't that even more natural?"
"I'm very familiar with Lord York. When he needs it, he finds me to book it, and I'll definitely give him face and open the private room."
"But most of the time, he doesn't need to make a special reservation, especially since sometimes Beatrice and I dine here as well."
"Perhaps outsiders have some misunderstandings about the Iron Horse Glacier?"
"It's just a slightly larger, very ordinary private room."
At this moment, everyone was silent.
Someone muttered under their breath:
"Doesn't that make it even more high-end? A royal exclusive private room."
