You could do a lot by disgracing your father’s name like that, not the least of which being completely free to act in any way you wish and gaining control of his assets, but… There was a decent chance that things could backfire on you, in a way you didn’t expect.

Due to your father’s experience, your noble heritage, and the measured amount of ability you yourself have shown, you have been placed into the Academy’s top class, surrounded by noble children, ‘half’-nobles in positions similar to yourself, and even one or two from the Rukongai, who managed to earn the right into the class on aptitude alone. As you settle down into your seat before your first lecture, you find yourself…
