Chapter 58 – Pick Up

#058.

-Failed to kill the princess.-

“Also! Did you fail again! What the hell are you doing!!”

-…Ray Frencia caused another surprise.-

“You bastard, Francia! What the hell are you doing!!”

The chancellor sharpened his teeth again, recalling Lai, which was the main cause of the failure this time.

I’ve never failed before, but if only Frencia was involved, everything I did was apt to fail.

This time, even Lucas was sent far away, but there was no income.

-But Rai Frencia is dead.-

“…Is that true?”

-Okay. I heard you got along with the bailiff.-

“That’s fortunate.”

Of course, as long as he killed a member of the Frencia family, he would be pursued by Lucas Frencia in the future, but that was something he accepted from the time of the attack.

That’s why it was a big boon to reduce one person who would be a big enemy in the future.

-Then I’ll hang up. There is a chase, so I’ll go to the empire and wait.-

─Tap

As soon as the communication is cut off, the chancellor bangs the desk! Boom! She slaps and vents her anger before leaving the room.

‘Damn… I wonder what the hell he’ll do if I tell him this.’
The chancellor moved her steps nervously, remembering the humiliation she would face in a moment.

When she arrived at the room, she knocked with a sad expression on her face.

Smart-

“Come in.”

Jump!

When I opened the door and went in, I saw the crown prince, who was still in the middle of bitching.

The chancellor bowed her head and waited. After a while, the maid left her room.

“How did it go?”
“Failed..”
“Haha.. Again? Failed again…”

It was the crown prince who showed the same reaction as the prime minister.

Then, as she was about to stir up anger, the chancellor hurriedly added her words.

“But I killed Rai Frencia.”

Stop!

Then, the Crown Prince shook his shoulders and looked at the Prime Minister and asked,

“You killed him? That guy?”
“Yes. He is said to have made friends with the Assassins.”

The chancellor didn’t expect much, but surprisingly the crown prince subdued his anger.

And he let out a sullen laugh and talked about bullshit.

“Okay. I mean, he’s dead. Hehe… Then Eris Frencia will naturally become mine. It’s a shame she’s not a virgin, but she can’t help it.”

‘I don’t know what you’re talking about…’

The chancellor could not follow the crown prince’s thinking at all.

Why did it become the Crown Prince’s property just because Lai Frencia died?

However, as if to answer him, the crown prince said with a smirk.

“His eyes may have been blurred for a moment, but once he is gone, you will realize that only this greatest body in the world can become Jiabi. Haha!!!”

In other words, it was an expression of unfounded confidence that Eris, who got away from Rai, was the only man she would choose in this world.

Seeing that, the chancellor couldn’t control his expression for a moment, and then hurriedly made up his expression and said,

“Yes. That’s right. It will take a month for the mana to be recharged, so you can hint to His Highness at that time.”
Hehe… Yes. That’s right… I’ll have to make the king my puppet.”
“Good judgment.”

In this way, the two dreamed of dreaming of different statues, remembering their respective purposes.

What they don’t know is that Rai Frencia has the ability to come back to life even after dying.

It was a small thing, but it was a fact that would be a big variable more than anything else.

***

“The eldest son of the French family. Rai Frencia successfully defended a member of the royal family from the rebellious crowd. This is indeed a noble sacrifice and a proof of loyalty. That’s why I’m buried here in front of a great person.”

Along with the words of King Karios Lianne, the coffin that wrapped Lai sank into the ground.

It was the magic of the Earth Wizard.

“Black…! Lai… Lai! No way..!!”

In front of him, Eris was crying and wailing.

And Lucas, who was standing next to him, also seemed to be a little sad about Rai’s death, as he had a fairly solemn atmosphere.

“Brother.. I’m the son of a bitch..!”

Nia, who had no choice but to stand at a distance because of her status, recalled Rai’s face and blushed again.

She cried so much that her eyes were swollen to the point of being comical.

“Young master. Sorry..”

Hughes also closed his eyes as he looked at the place where Rai was buried.

“Princess Lai… Many people are sad. That’s too bad. If only I had a little more time…”

Arisha thought about that for a while, then shook her head and smiled bitterly.

Rai had already died and was buried in the ground.

Arisha reminded herself that she had to shake off this strange feeling towards him.

To Arisha, Rai was the object of her curiosity from the first time she saw it.

In addition to his excellent muscles and bones, he has a composure and good looks that are not befitting his age.

And even so, he was quick to notice and perfectly reproduced the courtesy of a nobleman in a short period of time.

The comparisons were natural for Arisha, who grew up watching her own twin, her crown prince.

One was so overwhelming that it was embarrassing to compare the two.

However, the outstanding man eventually made sacrifices to save his people.

It is a debt that cannot be repaid even if it lasts a lifetime.

So..

‘I’ll get my revenge.’

Arisha harbored a cold rage, and she was determined.

I will drive the Church of Destruction out of this world!

Even her own mother is not enough, she can’t forgive the ruined church for taking away even the person she wanted to awaken her feelings of love for the first time.

The funeral ended quickly, and Arisha took a moment to clear her mind before she called Eris and Nia.

“You two have something to say.”

Despite saying that, the two didn’t listen to Arisha at all.

“Young master. Sorry. I was too weak to help. Black…!”

Nia blamed herself.

“I will kill you. Will definitely kill I’ll tear you limb from limb I won’t kill you easily. I will kill them all!”

Eris kept repeating her words that she kills like a madman, stirring up her flesh.

A ghastly goosebumps ran down her spine.

Eris’ condition was not normal, as if she had cherished all the hatred that existed in the world.

So, Arisha grabbed Eris by the shoulder and shook her, shouting.

“Eris!!”

-Stand up.

Eris, continuing to recite her curse, stiffened.

Then, raising her head, she removed Arisha’s hand.

“What are you doing? I’m busy. She needs to get stronger quickly and kill it..”
“I know. That she wants revenge. But you can’t.”
“No? Could it be that the princess is also interfering?”

Perhaps misunderstanding Arisha’s intentions, Eris dyed her eyes even more gray.

“No! I want revenge too. So that’s what I mean. They’re not easy to catch. And… Young master also said that. To come back.”
“Ah..!”

It was only then that Arisha’s eyes lit up when Arisha made her mention of her rai.

A little relieved by that appearance, Arisha turned her head to the other person.

“Nia. Do you want revenge too?”
“Yes. I will take revenge. You can’t forgive the person who took you away like this!”

Arisha and Nia could be seen as having something in common.

I have experienced losing someone dear to me twice.

As such, Nia’s vengeful spirit will exceed her imagination.

“Then you go back to your family. If you help the Frencia family and the royal family, you will be able to take control of the Herien Viscountate.”
“…Yes. All right.”

Nia also accepted at once that she thought it was for the best, and that she was going to her hometown, which she hated.

“And you, Eris, be strong. Anyway, Duke Lucas will help Revenge of Prince Rai. So, increase your own strength. Got it?”
“Yes. Princess. Oh, I’m sorry.”

As if she had finally regained her sanity, Eris apologized to Arisha.

“Are you okay. Because I would have too.”
“…Is that so? Also the princess…”

At Arisha’s words, Eris laughed lightly, as if guessing her feelings for Rai.

And Arisha didn’t answer that.

“…Then let’s end the conversation here. We will communicate later.”

After a brief discussion, the three looked at Rai’s grave for a while and returned to their respective seats.

“Haa.. Young master. Please look there. I will definitely get my revenge.”

Eris, who muttered that and went back to her room, frowned when she saw the opponent approaching in front of her.

“What. You mean you don’t even want to see my face?”

Mean face.

Greedy, lust-ridden eyes.

It was Arisha who got goosebumps at the sight of her eyes licking her own body.

“Degrading Crown Prince. Do you have something to see? I’m busy right now.”

At Arisha’s cold windy attitude, the crown prince trembled at the corner of her mouth and said,

“Haha.. Lai Frencia died protecting you, right? Whoops… That’s unfortunate.”

The Crown Prince said in a regretful tone, but the overall atmosphere seemed very bright.

“If you have nothing to say, let’s go.”

Seeing that, Arisha clenched her fists and tried to push past them.

Then the crown prince crossed the line by no means.

“Did something happen with him? Could it be that the two of you even slept together?”
“Down with the crown prince!!”

Arisha felt the crown prince’s words as if he were just possessed by his body, so she couldn’t stand it and raised her voice.

At that response, the Crown Prince chuckled and said as if he was having fun.

“Why? I was just worried as an older brother. You must have been thoroughly contraceptive, right?”
“…Let’s go.”

Arisha, unable to foresee what she was about to do, walked past the Crown Prince and into her room.

And after she bathed, she lay on the bed and muttered:

“Young master is not a person like you.. He is a wonderful.. He is a wonderful man.”

Arisha, who muttered that, made a firm resolution.

“I want to be a king.”

She was originally born a woman, and she also hated fights between her kindreds. She did not aspire to the throne, but she was different now.

If this kingdom were entrusted to the crown prince, there would be great storms.

“So I will rule.”

Arisha put her new goal firmly in her mind.

***

“Young master… I’m sorry. I’m tracking hard, but I’m not getting any results.”

One month from the attack.

During that month, Arisha used her shadow to pursue the Church of Destruction diligently, but she lost it in the middle.

As if cutting off her tail, the situation is helpless with the tactics of leaving only the general believers and the leadership to run away.

After barely finding a trace, if you chase it, it will be cut off in the middle and all important information has disappeared.

“I think it will take a while.”

The crown prince appeared behind Arisha, who was muttering while looking at her memorial stone.

“Are you here today? It looks good. Seeing how you can’t forget it.”
“…What are you doing here?”

When an unwelcome guest appeared, Arisha openly showed her discomfort.

Whenever they ran into each other for the past month, the crown prince would talk about Rai to Arisha as if provoking.

As a result, it is natural to be wary.

“Hmm..? What do you mean? I just came to apologize to Rai Frencia.”
“Apology?”

The crown prince was not the type to apologize to someone, so Arisha had doubts.

And the crown prince brought up a story that could not be heard.

Haha! That, of course, is about Eris Prencia. Your sister will be my wife and she will live happily ever after.”
“What do you mean? What is the connection between the Crown Prince and Eris?”
“What does that matter? I am going to be king Of course you have to follow me if I want to.”

For a moment, Arisha even had the illusion that she had heard it wrong.

‘What… Are you talking about? Now.’

As I was dumbfounded at the sound that I couldn’t even sanely say, the crown prince took another drink.

“Come to think of it, did you say Nia Herien? You were his exclusive maid? Even if she goes to Viscount Herien, she will be of great help, so should she be taken in as her concubine? Haha!”

The princess couldn’t stand it any longer when she openly said that she would take everything from Rai.

“Stop!”
“Hmm? What do you mean stop?”

Looking at the crown prince’s smiling face, Arisha honestly expressed her feelings.

“Princess Lai was a great man. He was a nice guy He at least rather than someone who only covets female bodies every day.”
“Does that mean… That I’m worse than him?”

The crown prince came closer and glared at him with the flesh in his eyes.

But she couldn’t be scared of Arisha by someone weaker than herself.

It is only a matter of time before he decides to become the king anyway.

So, Arisha did not avoid the crown prince any longer.

“I will not deny it. It’s late at night. Enough then.”

Arisha finished her own words and headed past the crown prince to her room.

And the Crown Prince, who was left alone, gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

“How dare you… Four years…! Yeah… You mean he’s that good? He’s going to have to be killed later anyway, so I left him alone, but there’s no need for that.”

The crown prince felt intense anger and went straight to the chancellor.

Thud! Thud!

“Prime Minister! Open it I have something to say!!”

Jump-

“Come in at once.”

The chancellor let him in, even though he wondered what this madman was trying to do.

Then the Crown Prince kicked the sofa for no reason and sat on his ass.

“What happened?”
“Prime Minister. Will the mana be recharged soon?”
“Yes. There are only a few hours left. You will soon become the owner of the kingdom.”

Thinking that tomorrow her plan would be completed, the chancellor raised her mouth.

However, that smile disappeared as if it melted at the crown prince’s words.

“The hint is Arisha Lianne. Bet that bitch.”
“…Yes? Are you a princess?”
“Okay. How dare you scorn me! I have to crush that bitch under me to get rid of it! After all, the mana will be charged after another month.”

‘No, this crazy bastard…’

The prime minister was dumbfounded by the crown prince’s impulsive decision.

The chancellor looked at the crown prince for a while before saying,

“What did the princess say? Decline of the crown prince. I don’t know what’s going on, but calm down. This is your chance to become the master of the kingdom!”

Seeing the Prime Minister trying to stop him somehow, the crown prince shouted, “Do you still not understand him?”

“That bitch dared to compare me to Lai Frencia! They said I was worse than him! Looking at her every day for a month, she must have opened her pussy to Rye Francia that year. A bitch like a slut!”

She was so jumbled that it was hard to understand, but the chancellor answered her rough story.

“Is that so? I’m sure the princess made a mistake. But I hope the crown prince will calm down. Taking possession of the kingdom and punishing the princess are incomparable in importance!”

It was the chancellor who tried to convince him as logically as possible.

However, the chancellor did not expect it.

How serious the side effects are caused by the impulsive personality of the Crown Prince.

“What!? So do you mean to leave that bitch who dared to scorn me alone! The throne can be obtained at any time. You have to make that bitch pay for her crimes first!”

‘My head hurts…’

The chancellor said as he grabbed her head, which was slowly coming back with pain.

“So, does the Crown Prince intend to show the princess the dignity of a man?”

The crown prince nodded vigorously to the chancellor who spoke as much as possible.

“Yes! It’s to show that I’m not inferior to Lai Frencia!”

As chancellor, there are many other ways, but I couldn’t understand why it was sexual.

At least, if the crown prince’s energy was great, it wasn’t like that.

However, the chancellor was relieved that he had found a way to persuade him.

“Then you don’t necessarily need to take hints. If you hint in the first place, the princess won’t be able to repent of her mistakes. You have to show the greatness of the Crown Prince when he is fine.”

When a plausible reason was added, the crown prince, who seemed to run to Arisha at any moment, began to calm down.
“That’s right. Certainly… I don’t know what the reason for giving in is if you suggest it.”
“That’s right. If you want to prove that you are superior, you must not use hints.”

After hearing that, the Crown Prince seemed to have lost his will to hint further.

“But… How can I do that? That bitch will never accept it. Is there a way?”

The Chancellor nodded at the shameless appearance of asking him to come up with a solution because you said it.

“Yes. I have a way. In what way…”

Afterwards, the Crown Prince, who had been vomiting admiration at the Prime Minister’s explanation, grinned and patted him on the shoulder.

“As expected, the chancellor. Then please do it that way.”
“Yes. Decline of the crown prince. We will put it into effect tomorrow.”
Hehe… Arisha. I will love this brother and make him die.”

The Crown Prince’s ugly desires confront Princess Arisha.
