72 Imposter!
"Who are you?" Luis asked, showing a confused expression.

Closely reading his expression, Emily didn't feel like he was lying. 'Is he telling the truth? Does he really not know?'
Emily was a little doubtful in her heart, but she had an arrogant expression on her face as she revealed her identity. "I'm the Elven Princess of Esperia, Emily Steve!"
When she said that, she was also observing Luis' reaction.
But unexpectedly, his reaction was flat. Which surprised her. 'Is he unfazed by my identity?'
Luis' reaction surprised even the people around.
Luis calmly looked at her and then showed a disappointed expression.
"What a liar."
When Emily heard that Luis didn't believe her identity, she really wanted to beat him up.
"Who the hell is lying?! What I am saying is true?!" she shouted angrily.
But Luis was unfazed as he answered calmly. "There is no way the Elven princess would act so rudely in front of the common populace and discredit the majesty of the Elven Royal family."
Hearing Luis' calm and confident analysis. Even the surrounding people started to believe it.
"What he said does seem right. The princess wouldn't act like this."
"Yeah, I have seen the princess of Aiverson Empire. She is very polite and elegant."
"No way, but don't you see? She looks exactly like the Elven Princess."
"Maybe she is someone with a similar appearance."
"Hmm, that might be true."
...
As more and more people voiced out their thoughts. The eyes looking at Emily started to change.
"I can't believe she was an imposter."
"I don't understand. Why would someone so beautiful do something like this?"
"Didn't you see her personality?"
"Yeah, you are right."
This sudden change dumbfounded Emily. This may be the first time she was called an imposter and that too of her own.
Maybe showing her identity proof in her mana bracelet would have saved the situation. But that would have been even more embarrassing.
Gritting her teeth, she looked at Luis. Who calmly made the payment after taking his ice cream and was about to leave.
"STOP RIGHT THERE!!!"
"I don't have anything to talk about with an imposter." Leaving those calm and unhurried words, he left the shop handsomely.
"YOU!!!" Emily felt like this was the first time she had been so angry in her life.
She hastily made her payment and left after him.
Of course, she didn't forget to leave a sentence behind.
"I am not an imposter."

Leaving the Ice cream shop. Luis tasted the Ice cream.
"It does taste good." He was very satisfied with the recommendation of the saleslady.
'Next time, I should bring Alicia too.' Just when he was planning his future date with Alicia. He heard an annoying voice from behind.
"STOP RIGHT THERE!"
'Didn't she leave?' Luis turned around with a sigh, looking at Emily, who stood 2 meters behind him.
"What do you want, Princess?" Luis asked in a bad tone.
"So, you do know my identity!!!" Emily said while gritting her teeth.
"Well, I decided to believe in you," Luis replied without changing his face.
This made Emily even more angry.
"How. Dare. You. Embarrass. Me!!!"
"Embarrass you?" Luis chuckled and then said with a cold face. "You should know what you did was even more rude."
Staring into his eyes, she said, "I JUST asked a question."
There's no way she would admit her mistake.
"Yeah, and I also JUST doubted your identity. So, we are even, right? Princess." Luis said with a smile.
Emily felt like smashing his face. This was the first time someone annoyed her so much.
"What's your name?"
After knowing his identity, she will decide how to deal with him. Since he could argue and taunt her even after knowing her identity. He must have a certain reason for his confidence. His background shouldn't be simple.
That is also the reason she hadn't made a move on him yet. Otherwise, she would have already broken his few bones, at the very least.
Even if she had a rotten mouth and didn't have the elegance of a princess. She wasn't stupid.
When she asked for his name, Luis instantly understood her thoughts.
So, with a smile, he introduced himself.
"I'm Luis Suarez. From Aiverson Empire."
Hearing his name, Emily had a frown on her face, as she was thinking about his identity.
'Suarez Family? Is it?'
"Are you somehow related to the Hero Henry Suarez?" She asked doubtfully.
Luis nodded and admitted. "He is my grandfather."
Confirming his identity, Emily's expression became plain. Even if she wanted to strangle him before. Now she can't. Unless there's an extreme hatred between them. So, taking a deep breath, she made her decision.
"Well, you are right. I was rude to you first. So let's call it even. Let me reintroduce myself. I'm Emily Steve. The princess of Esperia Kingdom and the daughter of the Elven Hero King. Nice to meet you, Mr. Luis."
Luis nodded, seeing her change in character. 'I'm certain if I was a normal person. She would have broken my bones by now.'
"I'm Luis Suarez, from the Suarez Family of the Aiverson Empire. Nice to meet you too, Miss Emily."
Seeing his perfect gentlemanly performance. As if the previous interaction never happened. Emily's brows couldn't help but twitch.
But she was very unwilling in her heart and wanted to beat him up somehow.
'Hm?'
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind as she asked.
"Mr. Luis is also taking part in the entrance exam, right?"
"Yes." Luis nodded while wondering what she was planning.
"Really?!" Emily showed a surprised expression. Then, with a beautiful smile, she said. "That's great! This way we can join the Academy together."
Luis nodded, having some idea about what she was going to say.
And as he expected, the next second she showed a thoughtful look and uttered.
"But this also means we will be competitors in the next round."
'I knew it!' Luis thought inwardly.
"So I hope to have a healthy competition with Mr. Luis."
Luis had a smile on his face as he said. "Yeah, me too."
Two people with fake smiles nodded at each other and then left their way.
