Chapter 1600 – 82. As Expected…Humans Are Fun!

Feliced ​​Palace

A large palace where the emperor resides, located in the center of the imperial capital

Tap, tap, tap, tap

Heavy footsteps began to sound there.

The owner of those footsteps was none other than a rugged man.

A man with a wild aura that resembles a lion

Maximus Leord, 2nd Prince of the Leord Empire

It was him.

“Please calm down!”

“You’re just visiting without any message! Your Majesty will be very angry!”

“Your Royal Highness! This kind of rudeness is truly troubling!”

“If we continue like this, our heads will be taken away!”

The imperial servants desperately tried to dissuade him.

Coming to the palace where the emperor resides without even sending a message and acting as you please is an act that is strictly against imperial etiquette, even if it is against it.

If they can’t stop him like this, their own heads may be blown off.

Jeopuk Jeopuk Jeopuk

However, despite their desperate dissuasion, Maximus still walked forward without hesitation.

As if their circumstances were none of his business

“Your Majesty..Jebaaaaal!”

“Please stop!…Your Highness”

Naturally, the faces of the imperial servants had no choice but to become tearful.

Until now, there has never been a single person in the royal family who committed such disrespect.

How to deal with it naturally

You can’t help but feel embarrassed.

That time when I shook off the attendants and walked without hesitation

“Stop!”

A loud shout began to echo inside the imperial palace.

Click click click click

Soon, knights wearing thick armor walked from the front and completely blocked his path.

As if no further advancement would ever be allowed

“..Imperial Guard Knights!”

“Haaaaa..”

“Whoa…I survived…”

The attendants, who had been in despair at their appearance, breathed a sigh of relief.

Imperial Guard Knights

The strongest knights who protect the imperial family

Since they appeared

This was because I thought that no matter how much he was the second prince, he would not be able to do as well as before.

“What are you doing? Second Prince!”

At that time, Count Raust, the leader of the Imperial Guard Knights, raised his voice and snarled.

I was angry at his extremely rude behavior.

“It’s no big deal, I just came to see His Majesty.”

In response to that question, the 2nd Prince, Maximus Leorde, spoke with a calm expression.

There was no remorse at all for being rude.

There is only the shamelessness of doing something for granted

“In that case, the next step is to go through the legal process, ask for permission, and then visit His Majesty! How can you be so rude!”

“I’m in a hurry.”

“That is no reason!”

“I’ll keep that in mind next time.”

“There are no exceptions! Go back and follow the proper procedures!”

“What if you don’t like it?”

“I have no choice but to be rude to Your Majesty!”

Clap clap clap

The knights all began to grab the hilts of their swords.

As if I could pull it out at any moment

“Are you saying you’re going to cut me down right now?”

Maximus stared at them with a laughable look.

“There is nothing I can’t do!”

Count Laust glared at him with extremely hot eyes.

Thus began a strange confrontation between Maximus and the Imperial Guard Knights.

At that time when we were glaring at each other like that

Often often often

A maid walked behind her, often walking.

“Hey… Captain… I have something to tell you for a moment.”

And then he began to speak as if whispering in Count Raust’s ear.

Count Raust listened calmly to what he said.

Then he took his hand off the sword and returned to his fighting stance.

“People are out! Everyone open the way!”

Then he shouted loudly.

Then the knights all released their hands from their swords and began to retreat.

“Didn’t I tell you? It wasn’t a big deal.”

Maximus grinned and began to walk his steps.

And just as I was about to pass by Count Raust

“Don’t think that rudeness like today will be used again, Second Prince.”

Quite weighty words began to penetrate my ears.

“Hmph.”

Maximus snorted lightly at those words.

And I just walked leisurely.

It’s really a no-brainer

It is no exaggeration to say that it was the same.

Knock knock knock

A knock on the door begins to sound.

“Come in.”

Then, an old voice is heard from behind the door.

Wow!

Soon the door slowly opened and the second prince, Maximus Leorde, appeared through it.

“Meet Your Majesty.”

And then he slowly bowed and showed respect.

“Still, you know the etiquette of knocking, Maximus.”

The person who received that greeting

The current emperor of the Leorde Empire

Gerard Leord opened his mouth in a calm tone.

It was a clear sarcasm in response to Maximus’ extremely rude behavior of his.

“How can you not know? It is the most basic of basics.”

“It’s amazing that you know the basics. You did something so rude to my face.”

“…”

“Well, it’s okay, you and I are too old to scold and criticize now.”

If it wasn’t corrected at that age, it was natural.

Even if you try to fix it, it will be a futile effort

“Tell me why you came, but what on earth made you so angry that you made such a fuss in the palace?”

Gerard Leord continued speaking with an expression that was nothing short of boredom.

He understood his foolish son’s intentions very well.

The act of misbehavior was probably just a protest.

I am this angry.

I became angry enough to behave like this.

Please recognize me

This is a protest of its own with many intentions.

“…Are you not planning on going against your will?”

At those words, Maximus gave up and got straight to the point.

As long as your true intentions are discovered

It was because I felt that playing with words was rather useless.

“You don’t know what you’re talking about, my son, because I’ve cut you off front and back.”

“Don’t you have a guess? Your Majesty.”

Maximus glared at him with cold eyes and began to speak.

Although he was old, he had the slyness of a worn-out fox.

You know everything and yet you act like a fool

“Well…I don’t really know?”

“I am asking about the succession to the throne, Your Majesty.”

“I think I misunderstood something. Nothing has been decided yet.”

“I also heard, Your Majesty, didn’t you order your servants to secretly prepare for the coronation?”

“Huh, I guess I’ll have to change all the imperial servants. I was told to prepare in secret, but it leaked out so quickly.”

“Can I take this to mean that I will acknowledge it?”

“Ah, I know everything, so how could I be more pretentious? It’s just as you know. I intend to officially appoint the first prince, Varian, as the heir to the throne.”

Udeuk

Maximus gritted his teeth hard at those words.

I knew it

I heard exactly what he said.

The mental damage was considerable.

“Weak and indecisive Varian cannot be the Emperor’s vessel… Your Majesty.”

“Be merciful and prudent.”

“No one other than Your Majesty and the 1st Prince faction nobles think that way. Not even me and many central nobles! Not all of the people consider Varian to be the emperor’s vessel!”

“What does that mean?”

“Yes?”

“Make no mistake, Maximus, it is neither the people nor the nobility that determines the successor to the throne. It is only one person, Gerard Leorde, Emperor of the Leord Empire.”

Gerard glared at him with eyes full of majesty and began to speak.

“I decided that way. If that’s the case, there’s no need to argue. It’s already been decided.”

“So, I’m asking you to reconsider! For the sake of the empire, you need to think more grandly!”

“Are you trying to say that you are more qualified than Varian?”

“Of course!”

“It doesn’t look like much to me. You are a tyrant, and at best, you will become a cancer tyrant.”

Creep

Maximus gritted his teeth at the sharp, dagger-like words.

It was truly insulting.

He said he was inferior to Varian.

“I can’t admit it!..I mean I can’t admit it!”

“No matter what you say, my thoughts remain the same. Whether I tolerate it or not, whether I acknowledge it or not.”

Gerard continued speaking with a calm and weak expression.

“No matter what, there’s nothing you can do.”

Even if you have the rank of general

Even if he holds half of the military power

Even if Ilsin is a second-in-command of an empire whose military power has reached master level

Even though he has the Reinhold family and numerous nobles on his back,

There was nothing he could do.

All of that

The strongest sword that protects the emperor

I was so useless in front of Agnes Leorde

“…I completely understand Your Majesty’s intentions. I have no intention of changing my mind, even if the sky splits in two.”

“That is exactly what it says. My will remains unchanged. If you want to break that will, you will have to break the emperor’s sword first.”

I completely nailed it.

Without even the slightest margin

Thoroughly

“…I’ll just leave now.”

Maximus answered with a very red face.

Even at a glance, you could tell that he was very excited.

“…Don’t be too upset, you are more suited to the position of a general rather than a monarch.”

Did you feel sorry for that son?

Gerrard offered his own consolation.

“That remains to be seen.”

With those words, Maximus went completely outside.

Without even looking back

“Tsk tsk, I still haven’t been able to give up my excessive greed.”

Looking at the back, Gerard clicked his tongue lightly.

This was because we were able to see through to the end that he did not let go of his greed for the throne.

“If you just accept reality, you will find peace.”

There is nothing more meaningless than holding on to something that doesn’t work.

The foolish son still dreams.

How can you not feel pathetic

‘I just hope you grasp the topic faster, foolish son.’

Parmeden Palace

Office

Suddenly

“Marquis of Bourbons!”

The door opened roughly and a rugged man resembling a lion appeared.

Second Prince of the Empire

It was the appearance of Maximus Leord.

“You came earlier than expected.”

At his call, the Marquis of Bourbon, who was peeling apples with a knife, opened his mouth as if puzzled.

He seemed surprised by the earlier-than-expected arrival.

“I will proceed with the grand plan.”

“Has a decision finally been made?”

Bourbons grinned and removed his mouth

He was confused until the very end with a plan that bordered on immorality.

However, after meeting the emperor

It seemed like he had made up his mind.

They say they will proceed with the grand scheme at all costs.

“I just realized that I can’t become emperor through standard methods.”

So he had no choice but to use extreme measures.

“So I will rule out everything that comes in my path! Even if it’s my father!!”

If it prevents you from becoming emperor

No matter who the opponent is, we will mercilessly exclude them.

Even if it is your father

‘You’re the one who kicked away my last chance to live…Father.’

Maximus rationalizes his ugly greed.

It’s all my father Gerard’s fault

Crunchy

‘As expected…Humans are fun!!’

The Marquis of Bourbons smiled deeply as he chewed his apple.

He always feels it

Indeed, the ugliness of humans was truly enjoyable.

************

Capital of Leord’s Empire

South Gate

“Stop”

A guard holding a spear stops two travelers trying to enter.

Outsiders just before entering

This is because inspection is essential.

“Please present your ID card and state the purpose of your visit to the capital and the length of your stay.”

He conducted an obvious and obvious search.

Chuck Chuck

Then one of the travelers presented his ID card.

“Seonuu!? Is there a country that names things like this?”

The guard tilts his head at the unusual pronunciation.

I felt puzzled by the pronunciation, which I had never heard before.

“Well, that’s okay, the woman next to you, you too must show your ID.”

“I don’t have any ID.”

“If you can’t prove your identity, you can’t enter the system! Go back!”

An order to celebrate guests was immediately issued.

Proof of identity is required for inspection

If you cannot prove your identity, you will never be able to enter.

“You can prove your identity instead.”

“I don’t have an ID card, so how can I prove my identity…”

Sarak

His words did not last until the end.

The moment a woman takes off her robe and reveals her her her her face her her her

It was because she was completely entranced.

Golden hair resembling brilliant sunlight

Mysterious eyes

The bridge of the nose is sharp as if it was built by a craftsman

Beautiful lips

And the long ears that are unique to the race

“El..Elf!?”

That’s right.

With peerless beauty and long ears

There is only one race on the continent with this characteristic

There are only elves.

“What do you think? Has my identity been proven?”

Beautiful elf with golden hair

Eleya had a smile as warm as the sunlight.
