Chapter 134

It is a misunderstanding to say that people grow older just because they get older. The environment must have a great influence.

In that respect, the special background of the imperial family often produces many problematic personalities.

Ainim also has complex aspects in many ways, but the problem is less in that the emperor favors him.

“You mean sane?”

that’s too much

Unexpectedly, Hira was able to say that to me.

It wasn’t a detailed discussion, but it was the first time that a proper schedule was brought out.

“Of course he is sane.”

“Then, no, can I burn it now? I can’t even hold it because I’m anxious.”

“It doesn’t matter if you see everything.”

Hwareuk!

The flame that flared up in an instant burned the memo paper in Hira’s hand.

The trembling hands finally calmed down. Actually, do you have a copy of that?

“Kidnapped and imprisoned.”

“yes.”

“The royal family.”

“Isn’t it better than assassination?”

“They are both on death row! You won’t even leave your name on the grave!”

drain. until you scream.

Even after burning the paper, he was still fidgeting and stamping his feet.

“Your Highness, say something. You don’t have to dry it.”

“I did my best to dry it. I didn’t even listen.”

There is a reason why it was expressed in an indirect way because it is a counterattack. Because it’s something that shouldn’t even be mentioned directly.

Vector is kidnapped and imprisoned.

“It’s a very simple story. There are people who try to talk dogs that bite people. They are all idiots.”

Vector von Longert.

From the time he was born as the second prince of the empire, he reigned in the position of the people, but all the attention of the world is focused on the child who was born shortly after.

Since the emperor is also human, he has no choice but to show favoritism to the child. If the first prince, Tane, had been the target of comparison, it wouldn’t have been as unfair.

Vector eventually realizes the insurmountable limits of his talent and becomes a monster buried in an inferiority complex.

Unlike 1st Princess Tania, who at least behaves politely, Vector rarely enters social circles. In a word, he’s a guy with bad taste.

I can’t see things like this guy. It should be dealt with as quickly as possible.

“Originally, a dog is a loser, so listen. Especially if it’s a dog that’s never been beaten before.”

Vector is a dog.

And fortunately, there is no such thing as an animal protection group here.

“Even though. Rocks will do it all. You can’t even use magic right now.”

“How are you? It’s not like Prince Vector is a wizard.”

The kidnapping itself is not very difficult. It’s the rear end that’s the problem.

It is enough to instill fear in such a way that one would not even dream of retaliation.

“To do that, Your Highness needs your cooperation.”

“What will Your Highness do?”

It’s not that I couldn’t respond because I was a child. It’s so obvious that he’s doing his tricks, but he can’t be unaware of it.

The reason I had endured it so far was because I had never actually been harmed, and I knew that it was Ainim himself who would lose me by drowning in the mud at all costs.

It’s different now.

“Other people could have been hurt. I don’t want to show it like that again.”

“ha.”

“You said you would do something a little uncomfortable from the start. It was you who suggested it, Hira.”

“okay. I can’t seem to find a better number. I wanted to be quiet these days… … .”

smart.

Then someone knocked on the broken door. Surprised, Hira shook her shoulders.

nothing, nothing Ainim also trembled similarly by his side. Hiding behind my desk is also funny.

There is no sound leaking out of the room, and there is only one notepad that I burned earlier.

It’s safer to not know at all unless you’re going to be involved in an operation. It was intended to be hidden from the rest of the team.

“Is Lord Rockstryn here?”

“You mean that?”

“Ah, I’m glad.”

But what is it?

The person who visited the room was a completely unfamiliar face. After all, I sent everything back earlier, so there was no need to come back.

Although he was dressed normally, the man who was obviously a knight bowed his head because his body movements were straight to anyone’s eyes.

“Actually, His Highness Vector von Rongrth is looking for you.”

“… … Yes?”

“yes?”

“What?”

All three answered at the same time.

what time is it now The sun had already set and it was getting dark.

The article hastily said.

“I’m sorry. I know it’s rude. But he purposely came late to see Lord Rockstryn… … . Since you are nearby, I think you should respond.”

“Is it this time? After 3:00 p.m. Summer Turge won’t schedule a visit.”

“You came in secret.”

okay show. Look at this.

“Ah, how could someone the size of a prince move secretly? There must be about ten attendants attached.”

“I secretly came out from the imperial family, so I am the only attendant.”

“ah… … . okay?”

I secretly exchanged glances with Aini, who was hiding behind my desk. It was a position invisible to the knight.

What should I say in this case? It’s funny how the kid was hiding at the moment.

“I can’t help it.”

“Haha, thank you.”

“You’re having a hard time late at night, so let’s go have a cup of tea while Lord Lockstryn talks with His Highness.”

“Is that okay?”

“Sit comfortably.”

Hira noticed right away and laid the groundwork. Since you came to me on your own, things couldn’t be easier than this. Even secretly?

I left the room and looked around.

“Here it is, Lockstrin Aindarok.”

I was able to meet Vector von Rongrth with a meaningful smile.

alone

“Meet Your Highness the Prince.”

“Tsk tsk, to be stuck in a place where sand and dust blow like this while being like Aindarlock.”

“This is disrespectful.”

“done.”

Seeing him condescending makes me laugh too.

Basically, I thought that if I reached the imperial family, I would have high intelligence.

He must have been properly educated, and if he was from the Rongrute family, it would be hard to say that his genetics were wrong.

But it seems there are individual differences.

this stupid prince

“I will make a suggestion.”

“What is.”

“You, be mine.”

trying to placate me

It was harder to keep from laughing.

I felt like I had become an idiot from a minute ago when I was contemplating how to close the distance without being suspicious.

“You mean His Highness?”

“I heard that you are a little close with Ai-nim. But I didn’t show any intention to support Ai-nim in particular. right?”

“That’s right.”

“Yeah, you guys will do what you think too. The base of support is poor, and there is no benefit to be gained by supporting Aindar Locke, who is in full swing.”

“I am well aware of it.”

“So follow me. what do you want money? authority? Woman? If you become the official guardian of the imperial family, that’s nothing. You deserve it.”

There is no lie in Vector’s words.

Even if you don’t really aim for the imperial throne, you can solidify your position within the imperial family.

The imperial family who were pushed out of the succession to the throne eventually belonged to the central nobility in a broad category, so a strong guardian was always welcome.

So it’s me… … .

Oh, I can’t stand it.

“Poop.”

“What is that smile?”

“Aren’t you seriously mistaken, Your Highness?”

“I? what?”

I’m one step closer Vector was looking up at me with raised eyebrows. This guy is shorter than me, who has not yet grown up.

“There is no shortage of money for Aindarok combined with Yuxilla.”

“Ah, was it? Yuxilla probably has more money than the imperial family, right?”

Every word is spectacle.

Yuxilla’s wealth is well known to all of the central nobles.

Simply put, he has more money than the emperor, the highest authority in this empire.

“At least when discussing the infrastructure industry, the permission of Shilin Yuxilla is the first factor to be considered.”

“Then let’s put that aside.”

“Did you say authority? It may sound disrespectful, but it is. People are busy cheering when they see my black hair.”

“It’s not good to overestimate yourself in the excitement of exaggerated rumors, Rockstrin. You are considered a hero because they are stupid.”

You weren’t even interested in the outside world. Then there is no point in trying to persuade. One step closer.

“You mean a woman? It’s a funny thing to hear. me Do you think there was a need to worry about something like that, at least once?”

“Um… … . It certainly is.”

I’m glad to admit one thing.

Anyway, three steps forward, now the vector is right in front of us.

“Then what is it? Won’t you listen to me? You will regret it.”

“Regret is the word.”

“What… … ?”

I reached out.

“It’s not a word for a bastard like you.”

“Khehe… … !”

no need to use magic I strangled Vector.

He’s tall and has a body that’s only fat enough. There are no muscles to be found. Even the throwing of fists in defiance is clumsy. It doesn’t even seem like it will scratch.

“There is no one who can be called a villain, so I have never vented my anger. But what’s good?”

He opened his mouth as hard as he could and exhaled, but his throat was compressed, and only a whistling sound escaped.

The body slowly loses strength. The limbs droop, the eyes stare into the air.

“I guess you will.”

Took.

I passed out and touched Vector’s body, which was strewn like a rag.

Kidnapped Vector von Longert.

[Announcement]

[…] … Since there has been such an attempt, if you find someone with suspicious behavior, please report it immediately.]

next day.

Notices were posted all over campus within a day. It meant that if it stuck to the top elevator, it stuck to pretty much any place.

“Whoops.”

“… … What is it?”

“Whoop whoop.”

“What? Why are you laughing. Did you put anything on my face?”

“Oh, Nasha. Good morning.”

“I wasn’t even watching… … .”

I greeted Nasha, whom I met in the elevator early in the morning, with a wide smile. I’m too shy to make eye contact, but I don’t know.

I already feel good today.

“That, thank you.”

“yes? what?”

“As you said before. Something strange is coming.”

“Have you become friends?”

“yes. I think it’s less than before. It’s annoying to see, though.”

“That will be fine too. Just wait another week.”

“… … What more did you do?”

“secret.”

If you have a guy like Lamyu around you who is easily liked, you will be less likely to curse.

That’s why I said first aid. It is not a fundamental solution.

That’s something the emperor should be solving by now.

“Did you eat something strange today?”

Leaving behind the grumbling, I stepped out of the Tower of Truth as if leaping and jumping. Although it is a bit chilly, the sky is as bright as the sky. A hum comes out of nowhere.

After such a loss,

pass the void

into the deep forest.

The mountains near Summer Turge are said to have excellent scenery, so people from the outside are prohibited from entering. There is no reason for students to step into the forest where there is no road or anything.

Very occasionally the janitor will go to check it out, but as they say, very occasionally.

“Well, it didn’t collapse.”

He dug the soil with great painstaking magic all morning.

If you remove the lid that was properly covered, there is a crypt that goes down about 10 meters underground. I headed down with light steps.

Perhaps they heard my footsteps, and a fierce welcome continued from below.

“town! Ugh!”

“Oh, don’t worry. it’s me, me No one will come and it’s noisy.”

puck.

I lightly kicked him in the head. Vector, whose limbs were tied, rolled on the dirt floor.

“Be quiet. Understand?”

Then the dog shut up.
