Young Master Jean and Wolf returned to the exam hall about two hours later. When he walked to the exam hall again, he saw that Matthew had finished the entrance test because he was leaning on the wall, crossing his arms, waiting for Young Master Jean to return.

The moment Matthew saw Young Master Jean, he called him immediately, "Young Master!" 

Matthew rushed towards Jean and hugged him tight, so tight that Jean was suffocating a bit, "Young Master! Are you okay? What happened to you? Do you need my help or some sort?!"

Jean pushed Matthew a bit because he was suffocated, "M—Matthew, you're… choking me, urn!"

"Ah, I'm sorry…." Matthew released his hug and then asked again, "What happened, Young Master?"

Jean took a deep breath and fixed his attire, "Well, whenever I used my golden butterfly, it would drain all my energy. So I have to take a small rest."

"Small rest? But…" Matthew was so sure that Young Master Jean's face was ashen. He was so worried because he thought that Young Master would die due to overexertion of magic. 

But now he turned out well? It wasn't logical at all. 

"Yeah, it's just a small rest, hehe," Jean tried to dodge the suspicion. He knew that it wasn't really logical because his ashen face made him looked so brittle. But he couldn't just say that he had a hot kissing session with his knight to restore his energy, right?

Matthew knew that something was wrong, especially when Jean's cherry lips turned even redder than usual, and his cheek was ruddy after he left the exam hall with Wolf. 

He then darted his eyes at Wolf, the knight who had been keeping an eye on Young Master Jean the whole time. He could also see how Wolf's gaze to his Young Master wasn't just a gaze of a knight to his Master. 

It was more than just a devoted gaze of a servant to his Lord. 

When Matthew and Wolf's gaze connected, somehow he could feel the hostility between them, like a wolf and a hound dog growling at each other. 

"So all you did is just resting?" Matthew asked. 

"Y—Yes," Jean replied. 

"D—Did you pass the exam?" Jean tried to move the topic because Matthew's scrutinizing gaze made him nervous. 

For some reason, he felt like a wife that had given his husband a green hat with the security guard, aka Wolf. 

"Yeah, I did…." Matthew showed his academy badge. Still, with his dark gaze, he stared at Jean and smiled, "But I haven't go to the admission office yet. I'm waiting for you, Jean…."

"What a coincidence! Let's go!"

Jean grabbed Matthew's hand, and they walked together through the long corridor to the admission office to report their status as the new student. 

Jean came in first. He saw a woman was sitting with tons of paperwork. She looked grumpy. nut the moment she saw Jean, she got up immediately and showed a cheery smile, "Welcome, Young Master Jean!"

"Hello, I'm here to report my acceptance!" Jean chirped.

"Right on, Young Master! Please hand me your academy badge," the staff said. She looked at the two men behind Jean and said, "Your Academy badges please."

Jean, Wolf, and Matthew handed their academy badges, and the female staff checked the authenticity before nodding affirmingly, "Congratulations for your admission. This badge has contained a randomized number of where your dorm is."

"Eh? Dorm?" Jean didn't know that he had to live in a dorm. He was a Young Master! He should live in a lavish house, at least! 

"Yes, Young Master. His Highness Archduke Maximillien had told us not to give you lenience on this one because you need to learn to live with someone else." 

"Big brother said that I will get anything I want here!" Jean said, like a brat.

"Yes, Young Master, except for dorm."

The staff chanted a short spell and returned the badges to the respective owners, "Look at the back of the badge. you will see your name and your room number."

They flipped their badge, and Jean was the one who read it out loud, "Hnnn… Dorm A, Room A5."

"Young Master—" Matthew reacted immediately. He showed his badge to Jean and said, "We… We're in the same room."

"Whaaaa…."

[Seriously, what is the chance of me getting in the same room with Matthew? This is randomized, right?]

[Pupa: 1:327, 0.003%. Congratulations, you've hit the jackpot.]

[...]

Meanwhile, Wolf got a room not far from Jean and Matthew's room. 

"Congratulations, you may now go to your room, and you will see everything, from textbooks, stationery, and more," the staff said, and they were kicked out of the admission office. 

Matthew was excited by the good news, while Jean was dazed, full of grieving and annoyance. 

"Young Master, we're going to be living together from now on! I can't believe that my dream has come true!" Matthew crowed as if it was something special.

But Jean only smiled thin and kept on walking. 

Matthew felt that Young Master Jean didn't have the same energy as his. As if staying with him in the same room wasn't something exciting. 

But he kept it in his heart until they entered their room together. Wolf was also about to enter, but Jean warned him, "You should go to your room, Wolf. I will call you once I need something."

"But…" Wolf glanced at Matthew, full of hostility. Somehow he had a gut feeling that Matthew wasn't trustworthy. But since this was an order from Young Master Jean, he had to yield and excused himself. 

Jean looked around his room and then sighed, full of woe. He sat on the bed, lazily checking his academy uniform, textbooks, and stationery that had been given by the academy. 

Matthew sat at the opposite bed, and he asked Young Master Jean, "Young Master… aren't you happy that we can live together? This is a dream of mine to be able to get closer to you. But you don't seem excited…."

Jean, who had been dazed the whole time, finally paid Matthew some attention. He smiled thinly and nodded, "I—It's also my happiness, Matthew."

…

Matthew knew that Young Master Jean wasn't happy with this. It was so obvious from his eyes that he'd prefer to stay with someone else rather than Matthew.

[Ugh, seriously, I think Maximillien intentionally wants me to stay in this regular dorm because he wants me to feel uncomfortable staying in school for too long. So I can return to the Palace of Eau Saumont every weekend. What a sly move against his Little brother!]

[Pupa: You know that your living condition is much worse in the real world, right? Why are you acting like a pampered Young Master now?]

[Well, because I have the right to be a pampered Young Master in this world! Besides, why am I living with Matthew! His dark power is so creepy. I still remember that time when he turned an innocent bunny into a monster.]

"Young Master… answer me," Matthew suddenly said. 

"Huh?" Jean didn't pay attention to Matthew, so he asked again, "What did you say?"

"I said… Young Master, you're not happy to live with me, right?"
