"I do not have time to deal with you." Prince Bruno said to the Wittgensteins.

Heine and Lucienne were now standing in front of Prince Bruno's bedroom. Heine then knocked on the door three times before...

"Enter"

The two soon entered the room they saw Prince Bruno sitting in behind his desk. "Welcome, Royal Tutor and Assistant. Both of you please, have a seat." Prince Bruno said with a solemn voice. As the Wittgensteins walked into the room, they noticed that the room was filled with books. 'What an immaculate room, just like Lucienne's room. Our last interview was an uphill battle.' Heine recalled what they to deal with from the Fourth Prince. 'I wonder if this Prince will be cooperative to take the test?' Lucienne thought as she and her father took a seat on the couch across from Prince Bruno.

"So? What do you want me to do?" Prince Bruno asked with his cold eyes staring at the two. "We'd like you to take a competency test, Your Highness," Lucienne said as she politely handed the Honey brown-haired Prince the test. "Understood." Prince Bruno replied as he took the test from her hands. 'That went disturbingly smoothly.' Heine thought until "Here, I've finished it." Prince Bruno said as he handed the test back. 'That was way too quick...Unless you're my father.' Lucienne thought as she looked over her father with probing eyes. Heine noticed his daughter's staring "What is it, Lucienne?" Heine asked without recognizing the look she was giving him. "Oh, nothing Father," Lucienne replied as she looked away. "With all due respect." Prince Bruno started gaining the two Wittgensteins attention. "I should like to put both of your abilities to the test as well." Prince Bruno said making the two confused.

"To the test?" Heine and Lucienne both inquired. "To assess the caliber of a Royal Tutor and Assistant; who hasn't gone to university. All of our tutors thus far have been less intelligent than I. And their assistants were no better than children's level. I ask that you two leave this post immediately if you prove to be no different." Prince Bruno explains with a cold unwavering expression that would freeze the hearts of many. 'Father and I would have to be cautious as we build trust with him, given his intelligence. We should decline his test.' Lucienne thought. "Father we should-"

"Also, I'm concerned, I never imagined the new royal tutor would be this small." Prince Bruno said bluntly. "SMALL!!! We accept your challenge. Have at me!" Heine said huffing in his chibi form. 'Father...' Lucienne sighed at her Father's fit. "You must be relatively learned for the palace to employ you at all. Our duel of minds will be through chess. One can see their opponent's level of intelligence, thought process, and personality all through their movements on the chessboard. I've never lost a match. I hope both of you are prepared for a challenge." Prince Bruno said with a smug. "Just the way I like it," Heine grumbled with a pout as he glared at the prince. "Oh, brother..." Lucienne muttered as she started to feel a headache from the two.

First, it was a match between Prince Bruno and Heine, the intelligent prince thought he had the upper hand. However, Heine was able to defeat the overconfident prince. "I-Impossible..." Prince Bruno muttered in confusion. "Checkmate," Heine said making the prince flabbergast. "No matter! Your daughter will not defeat me!" Prince Bruno yelled as he was pointing at the youngest Wittgenstein. After that Prince Bruno and Lucienne were engaged in battle. Yet, just like her father, Lucienne defeated the intelligent prince. "No way, How did I lose not once but twice?! I ended up like this, and this like this, and that..." Prince Bruno grunted. "Are you quite satisfied? Then we should be on our--"

"Next! On to the next test!" Prince Bruno declared at the Wittgensteins. "What? You have more? Laze." Heine said as he laid his head on Lucienne's lap in his chibi form. "Don't relax yet! Are you serious about this?" Prince Bruno yelled at the lazy chibi. Then the prince turns around thoughtfully "Could these two be exceptional? No, its too soon to say. I'll test them with less conventional means." Prince Bruno whispers. 'It seems Prince Bruno is something of a pain.' Heine said in his mind. The Prince suddenly turned towards the Wittgensteins with new filled determination. "I challenge you to mental arithmetic!"

The three were now writing as fast as they can, however, Heine and Lucienne were going at lighting speed. "I've finished." The Wittgensteins said simultaneity. "What?! You two could have written in random numbers." Prince Bruno said to the father and daughter. "I assure you, your highness, we did not write down random numbers. Check them if it will ease your weariness." Lucienne said as she handed the prince their papers. Prince Bruno looked over the papers and gasped "It's all correct!" The prince said with shock.

"A royal tutor and assistant must also have knowledge of music." Prince Bruno pressed on as he was playing the violin with a confident smile. However, both of the Wittgensteins were playing a large number of musical instruments together. "A Father-Daughter Duet?!" Prince Bruno screamed in wonder. "The royal educators must also have luck. I challenge you to a game of cards." Prince Bruno challenged with a deck of cards in his hands. Not even a second later the Wittgensteins both played their cards down. "Double royal flush," Lucienne said in a blunt manner that struck a blow to the prince's pride.

"This goes beyond brilliance. What is going on here?" Prince Bruno choked out as he dropped his unused cards on the coffee table. "Are we finished with the challenges, your highness?" Lucienne asked in her chibi form as she and Heine were building a house of cards. "If, not what will the next challenge be?" Heine urged in his chibi form. Prince Bruno was practically trembling at the brilliance of these two. "A five-tier tower while I was thinking? How easy is this for you?" Just what in the world are they?

"My papers have been praised by scholars the world over. How can I be...No! Keep it together. Be proud of your intelligence!" Prince Bruno told himself as he pulled out a pen and some papers. "You won't be bested by anyone in pure academic knowledge." Prince Bruno said. "Pardon me, but..."

"You've been speaking your thoughts aloud." Heine finishes his daughter's sentence. Prince Bruno began to tremble in frustration until he slams down several sheets of paper on the table. "Next, I'll have you two take a test I created myself." Prince Bruno told the Wittgensteins. 'Prince Bruno is real petty when it comes to losing.' Lucienne thought as she looked at the third prince with a dull expression. "All we have to do is finish this?" Heine asked the prince. But, Prince Bruno only looked away and had his confident smirk.

"One hundred difficult questions covering the fields of mathematics, chemistry, history, geography and more. What's more, I wrote them in five random languages. Even you two will have a hard time with--"

"We've finished," Lucienne said making the prince dash towards her to snatch the papers from her hands. The young prince looked thought all the papers of his test and was astonished. "It's all correct." Prince Bruno spoke in shock. "By the way, I found one misspelling in the language of Fonsein in question fifty-seven. I marked it in red for you." Heine said straightforwardly to the prince. The prince suddenly fell to his knees trembling with admiration and intimidation of the Wittgensteins intelligence. 'It's no use, I have no hope of besting them. Their raw ability is overwhelming. They are blood-related not just by their looks, but their intellect as well. They can even draw out powerful luck. Is this what true genius is? From a young age, I was highly competitive. Academics, culture, even music, I threw myself at it all to distinguish myself and yet...What do I have to show for it?' Prince Bruno thought as he covered his eyes to prevent any tears to show. 'Prince Bruno...' Lucienne saw the look of despair on the young prince's form. She knew all too well...the pain of losing to someone at what you love the most. She was about to comfort him until she noticed a stack of handwritten documents.

"Your Highness, is this your handwriting?" Lucienne asked as she walked over to the desk. "Y-Yes..." Prince Bruno answered. "May we read it?" Heine asked as he walked over to his daughter. "Do whatever you want." Prince Bruno grunted as the two Wittgensteins began to read to papers. "I see, regarding the Kingdom of Glanzreich's basic principles as a modern nation. You even mention the effects of the recent construction of the ring road on the public consciousness...Excellent." Heine praised Bruno, while the young prince just stared at the child-like educator in shock. "You can tell which point I poured my efforts into?" Prince Bruno asked. "Indeed, this is a truly leveled-headed perspective. That of a scholar, not a royal. Don't you think so, Lucienne?" Heine asked turning towards his daughter. "Yes, I think so too. The writing is very engaging and breathtaking. However, This sentence could be misinterpreted as blaming the banks for the economic crisis thirty years ago. I might wish to compose it carefully to be more delicate." Lucienne informed before the prince snatched the papers out of her hands again.

Prince Bruno looked it over and suddenly realizing his flaw in the paper. "Your right. It's a minor part, but it lacks subtlety." Prince Bruno said. "Also, regarding your account of harmony among the commoners, perhaps the public operettas at Karl Theater also proved helpful?" Heine suggested. "I-I hadn't considered that." Prince Bruno admitted. "Even though it's beyond your field of study, considering the arts will expand your perspective, Your Highness," Lucienne said with a smile. That girl's smile was enough to to make Prince Bruno's heartbeat race and his cheeks had a burning sanation that only grew. 'Incredible, I can't believe there are people who understand my writing so well and can give me advice. Not only that...the first time in my life I-I.' Suddenly Prince Bruno got down on one knee and held Lucienne's hands. "I LOVE YOU! PLEASE MARRY ME!" Prince Bruno yelled with his eyes shining and his cheeks flushed. Lucienne's face exploded into a red blushing mess while Heine had a dark aura that only grew. 'Oh dear, what have I gotten myself into now?'
