Chapter 10: Making A Scene

The wedding proceeded and after the ceremony, it was now time for the celebration

All the attendees changed place as they stayed in the reception area. The newly wedded bride and groom were no different from them

"His Highness the 6th Prince Ryden Carstensen and his wife His Highness Avery Clyde Carstensen has arrived!"

The arrival of the two in the reception area was announced as they entered the room with arms hooked with each other

At a wedding, the bride and groom would normally receive a lot of attention. People would swarm them with congratulatory greetings and gifts

However, this wedding was different. Both the bride and groom were being ignored by the Nobles around

If they dare to do this with other Royalties, they would surely receive severe punishments

Unfortunately, Ryden is the illegitimate child of the Emperor. He doesn't have any backing behind him

It also didn't help his case that everyone knew that the Empress find him annoying

Other Royal Princes and Princesses wouldn't be ignored by everyone even with the Empress' influence as their mother still have a considerable power

Ryden's case is different even if his mother is still alive by now

"Is it just me or something is off with the atmosphere?" Ryden wondered as his eyes scanned the Nobles that has a world of their own

Clyde's eyes also wandered around and he can't help but release a helpless sigh

"No matter what, you are still the Empire's Imperial Sword. How could your influence be this weak?" Clyde muttered helplessly

Who doesn't know that among the Alphas of the Royal Family, it was Ryden that is the strongest strength wise?

None of them could compare with the 6th' Prince fighting prowess, a large part of the reason why even though Ryden doesn't care about the throne, the Empress still wants him dead

A Prince as strong as Ryden is seen as a thorn in the Empress's eyes that wants his own son to be the next Emperor

"What do you mean?" Ryden asked confused, not even having the slightest bit of clue of what Clyde meant with his words

"You are a man of great military prowess. Don't you find it weird that your influence was this lacking? Even if the Nobles don't like you, those that are stationed at the borders that you are protecting should at least try and cozy you. In that way, you would continue protecting their territory but what is this? They are completely ignoring you"

Clyde can't help but shake his head at this. With how great Ryden's military achievements were if he plays his cards well, he would certainly be an influential man in the High Society

But what could Clyde expect? Ryden is called a musclebrain for nothing

"What do you want me to do? Beat them up and say that they should start revering me? Argh, don't you know how annoying it is when people treat me like I am some sort of a God on a pedestal? I don't want to receive the same treatment that the other Royals receives" Ryden replied with a shrug

He always hated it when he has to attend formal settings due to the amount of etiquette he has to adhere

He also doesn't like being treated as a sacred person, especially by the people on the borders

Clyde shakes his head at that. "Your Highness, if you want to survive, you sometimes have to act like a Prince"

Seems like it was Ryden himself that pushes people to stop treating him like a Royal and he just wants them to treat him like a normal person

"You're an illegitimate Prince with a maid - commoner as your mother. What do you think people would think if a Prince likes you wants to be treated 'normally'?" Clyde asked and Ryden raised his brows

"That I am humble and nice?" Ryden answered and Clyde almost slap him

Humble? When did this guy ever act humble? Clyde can still remember how Ryden was bragging that the hospital he was working with would lose a lot without him. Are those the words of someone that is humble?

"No, you idiot! These arrogant Nobles would just think that you are really a vulgar commoner! They would further look down on you and make your already non-existent political prowess plummet down! Such a Prince like you is someone that the Empress could take down any moment from now!" Clyde whispered angrily

His tone was far from being gentle but he still made sure to act as if he was just having a good conversation with his husband as to prevent the Nobles from thinking anything that would harm the two of them

"Politics are too complicated! I don't need political power!" Ryden replied and Clyde gave him another pinch

"Power is currently what both you and I need to stay alive. Are you saying that you'd rather continue living your leisure and 'normal' life even if it means you would only have a little time left once the Empress strikes or would you try to regain the power you should have to make sure that you will continue living?" Clyde whispered again

Times like this made him thankful for the image that he still has. No one would think that he was talking about the Empress in this way

After all, defaming the Empress is a crime punishable by death

"Fine, fine! I want to continue living. So, what should I do?" Ryden gave up. He doesn't want his mind to continue thinking about complicated things. Since Clyde is so 'high' and 'mighty', Ryden would just do whatever he was told to do

"You need to make a scene" Clyde answered while looking at the Nobles around him that were treating him as a non-existent air

"A scene? Like those in dramas? Alright, I guess this sounds interesting. What scene should I make?"

Ryden's interest was piqued in the thought that he would create a scene straight out of a drama series. Makes Clyde wonder how this man's brain works

"I need you to scold the Nobles. Say something along the lines of you can ignore me but not my wife" Clyde answered seriously and Ryden looked at him as if he was some sort of a maniac

"First, you ask me to act as if I am head over heels for you. And now, you want me to do that? Seriously? Do you like it when people act that they are crazy for you? I didn't expect that you have such a disgusting side on you" Ryden said and he can feel the hair from his body standing up

"Idiot, that's not what I meant!" Clyde said with a red face. "Have you forgotten what we talk about earlier? You have to show that you are grateful for our marriage to make people think that you don't want the throne. However, you also have to take back your voice one by one. If you use me as an excuse, you could scold these Nobles and stop them from ignoring you. They will take you more seriously than before!"

"Blah blah blah. All I can hear is you have a weird fetish!"

Ryden's mind can't easily understand the complex concept behind Clyde's oh so 'brilliant plan'

"Your Highness, do what I said or I would make sure that you will die not by our enemies' hands but mine" Clyde threatened seriously and the Prince's body stiffened

"Y-Yes ma'am" Ryden answered fearfully while standing as straight as he could. He can't help but be afraid whenever Clyde acts fiercely towards him

"Good, now listen to me. This is what you have to do. First..." Clyde continue whispering as he brief Ryden on what to do

Fortunately, Ryden has watched a lot of drama series back on earth and it wasn't hard for him to understand what he has to do

As soon as that happens, the two acts as if they were just talking casually when Clyde's eyes look around him

Even though they were being ignored, the two are still heavily paid attention. A lot of people saw the new Princess' gaze and how his face fell after seeing that no one is talking to him and the Prince

These Nobles sneered. The Prince is an idiot and the Princess is a weak-hearted child. These two would surely have a bad ending in High Society

However, what they did not expect was the 6th Prince's reaction as soon as he 'noticed' the downcast expression of his wife

The Prince's eyes instantly darkened as he crushed the glass he was holding. That attracted a lot of attention and countless eyes stared at him

Ryden ignore the glass debris and wine that got into his hand as his eyes stared at the Nobles around angrily

"Y-Your Highness, y-your hand" Clyde acted worriedly while looking at his husband's hand. He looks like someone that can't bear seeing the Prince hurt in any way

"Good! All of you are very good!" The Prince said sarcastically
