Chapter 150 – Chapter 16
Three people appeared through the teleport magic circle installed outside the castle wall.
“Huh? Huh!”
The magician, who had been resident in the magic circle waiting for his next shift, hurriedly bowed to the boy who appeared with two sturdy-looking attendants.
“In the splendid Kingdom of Harlot…!”
The wizard tried to spit out words that he did not know whether it was a greeting or a praise song, but the boy who moved to the magic circle ignored him with an annoyed expression and headed out of the building.
‘Damn it. Why do I have to sweat like this?’
A prince who is pushed back in the line of succession and who does not have the backing of an influential family with great power must choose one of the three.
He received the title of duke and lived with his belly exposed to show that he would not threaten the kingship, married a foreign princess and became his son-in-law, or was used depending on the situation for the benefit of the royal family.
3 Prince Geride was the third.
The entire kingdom was devastated by the civil war and the undead incident and had to recover, but Kara Raiden Marshal had steadily strengthened his powers in the name of stopping the kingdom of the dead.
Akina was not satisfied with that and did not like the situation where she could only maintain her army with the support of the royal family, so she made a policy for self-sufficiency, and was able to maintain her army without anyone’s support while succeeding confidently.
In addition, this time, he had a strategic material called Dertium.
The royal family, which lacked knightly armor due to the civil war, decided to create a link with the Margrave of Karaiden.
And, the one who was sacrificed for that link was the third prince, Jeride.
‘Knight training under Akina. Then I’ll have to waste my time without a party or anything.’
Geride must become Akina’s disciple and undergo knight training.
Since Akina’s disciple is a member of the royal family, it is seen externally that he has joined hands with the aristocratic faction that has the strongest army.
This can control the reckless installation of other noble families who are not loyal to the royal family but intervene for profit.
And even if it’s impossible right now, after a few years, you can expect the effect of selling Dertium at a lower price than the general price or selling more allotments to the royal family than elsewhere.
Looking at it this way, it seems that only Akina is suffering her loss, but of course she is also a noble who rules a territory, so she was promised various benefits by accepting Jereide as her disciple.
Of course, the situation happened without the will or decision of Jeride himself.
‘Ha, look at the city’s tail. Is this a city He’s just a idiot.’
The scenery of the city revealed outside the building is great as a production area, but there are of course fewer things to enjoy than the capital.
Akina herself knows that there are not enough things to enjoy, but she decided that self-sufficiency is the top priority and has only recently started to improve.
For Jeride, who lived comfortably and happily in the royal family, everything was not to her liking.
“I’ve been waiting for you, Prince Jared.”
After a while, Akina’s knights, who had heard the story in advance and were waiting, greeted the prince.
They explained the magic installed in the fortress and the purpose of the card that serves as an identification card.
“This is a card that grants access to all but the most important facilities.”
“Guide me quickly.”
Annoyed at the red card, Chan Jeride hurried her guidance to meet Akina quickly.
‘Even Count Akina won’t expect much anyway. It won’t cause any big trouble, so I’m asking you to set it free.’
He honestly had no intention of taking knight lessons.
He received a sufficient amount of support from the royal family, and after a while, he will be given money to maintain his dignity, so he intends to play and eat with it.
‘Since there is a teleport magic circle, I should go around and enjoy it.’
In addition, you can move anywhere with the teleport magic circle, so if you act as an unknown scion, you will be able to play in the capital.
However, the burning circuit of hope turned into her despair as she confronted Akina.
“First, let’s check the prince’s physical strength.”
“Huh? Huh?”
As soon as we met, after exchanging a few words of greeting, he suddenly changed his clothes and was taken to the parade ground.
“Hey, Count Akina? Running all of a sudden, what is this…”
“It’s a matter of course. It’s to make the prince a great knight.”
“No, I…”
“Run first. The story follows.”
“Then tell me a little…!”
“Run!”
“Hee!”
Akina, dissatisfied with Geride’s continued refusal to run, shouted in a commanding voice, spreading her momentum.
The prince, who was threatened by someone for the first time, and at that time by a strong man who reached Origin’s realm, was startled and ran away.
She continued to fire waves of her own at the back of her prince, causing her to run wild.
‘It would be enough if I just manage it moderately and not be able to deviate.’
Anyway, since both the royal family and her benefited from each other, there was no need for intense knight training with Geride.
‘It’s clear that the 3 princes will cause many problems if they grow like this, from the way they look and speak, as well as from the rumors they’ve heard.’
Even though Jeride is only 16 years old, she could already hear promiscuous relationships and a little bit of gossip.
If someone grows like this without correcting it, it will create a big problem in the future.
‘Since you became my disciple for whatever reason, I’ll correct your grit properly.’
Akina, knowing why she wanted to have her three princes as her own apprentices, set aside her royal interests and set aside her royal interests, and she was determined to make him a proper human being.
“Akina-sama! Such rudeness to the 3 princes!”
At that time, one of the attendants who came with Akina questioned Akina, who threatened the three princes and forced them to run.
“Before he was the third prince, he became my disciple. As a teacher, what’s the problem with trying to give proper teaching?”
“The method is the problem! Didn’t you threaten the prince with momentum!”
The attendant questioned that there was something wrong with her practice, as it was obvious that she had shot and pressed her qi wave.
“Because he’s a prince, that’s enough. If it were my daughters, they would have wielded a punishment stick.”
“…”
She knew that Akina was a warrior, but her entourage looked devastated, as she never imagined that she would have disciplined her son like that, even though she was a nobleman.
“And I warn you.”
“Ugh!”
“Oooh!”
“Never throw up on my training methods again.”
She pressured her entourage, expressing that she would not receive special treatment for being the Third Prince.
“Heh! Hee! Hee!”
Akina, who shut her attendants down like that, couldn’t run anymore, so she looked at the gasping figure of Ride.
‘Since you are also a member of the royal family, you have learned Prana. The level is about standard 2nd grade. Since I learned the secret prana of the royal family, my actual ability should be around standard 4.’
However, the distance he ran was less than that, let alone the standard 2nd grade.
‘I’ve only become stronger with prana, but I’ve never really trained. Still, if you look at your breathing, you still have the energy to squeeze it to the limit and go around half a turn more.’
Akina gathered her momentum and silently watched her to see how strong her spirit was.
“More, no more… I can’t jump…!”
Disappointingly, Jared didn’t show any guts and just sat down.
This whole situation felt like hell to Jeride, who had never sweated like this, let alone the limit.
‘If it was Kaicent, I would have squeezed the limits and moved more.’
She showed her eyes that she was disappointed that she naturally compared her to Kai Sent, who was of a similar age.
From the first time Kai Sent saw her unknown name in the woods, she pushed her limits, and she ran relentlessly against herself.
But Jeride is amazed at her own momentum, and has no guts to push her limits.
‘No, maybe that’s normal. Because Kaicent is in a special position.’
Of course, there is a difference between a prince who grew up luxuriously without any difficulties and Kaicent, who is a mercenary who rolls around in the dust and is burning with a sense of mission to find Dang Seol-young.
‘Seeing Kai Sent, her eyes must have risen too high. The three princes must have lived without urgency, so we shouldn’t compare the two.’
Wasn’t the level of talent different in the first place?
“Sir Reveal.”
“Yes, Akina-sama.”
“When the prince wakes up, guide him to his lodgings and explain the daily routine of this place.”
“Yes.”
“And I’ll start training this afternoon, so help me prepare.”
After saying that, Akina disappeared somewhere to do her own work.
Moments later, while recovering her stamina, Je Ride, escorted by her knight to her lodgings, found that she had been assigned to a luxurious private room that saved face for the Prince.
“Aaaaa!”
Kwajik! Clink!
But the first thing Ride did when she entered her room was to randomly throw things around her and break her.
“What! What is that bitch!”
“Prince, this is Count Akina’s estate.”
“Shut up! I’m being treated like that, you guys shouldn’t have done anything to stop it!”
“Mu, of course I did… Count Akina didn’t even think of listening to us…”
“Aaaaagh!”
He had never been treated like this before, and he expressed his anger at random.
It’s only one day.
It wasn’t even a complete day, and less than an hour had passed since I met Akina.
“To live in this hell!? No! No!”
But that one hour felt like an eternity, and Jeride shouted that he would beat all the knights and everything.
As a member of the royal family, he had always been respected by others, so he could not stand this kind of treatment.
Having made such a mess inside his room, he thought of something and suddenly began to pack his money bag and his own clothes.
“I’m going.”
“Yes? Prince? What do you mean by that?”
“I’m leaving. I don’t want to spend a day in this hellish place.”
“But if it goes on like this…”
“Shut up! If I’m out, I’m out!”
Jeride went straight to the teleport facility he came from.
As a prince, he hates himself, but who says what?
But his steps were blocked at the gates.
“Sorry, but that’s not possible.”
“What? Do you know who I am? I am the prince of this kingdom! I am the prince!”
“I know. But you cannot leave without the permission of Count Akina, the prince’s teacher.”
“It’s an insult to the royal family! How dare you hold the order of a noble family higher than the royal family! This is an insult to the royal family!”
The knights and guards blocking the gate stopped him from going out.
Geride ran wild and tried to get out somehow, claiming all kinds of crimes, such as insulting the royal family, rebellion, and so on, but they stood firm, following Akina’s orders.
“Kill!”
“Yes?”
“It’s an order! Kill!”
It was the first time he had experienced a knight or something like that daring to disobey his orders, and his reason completely disappeared in anger.
It’s clear that killing them will cause trouble, but who can say anything when he’s a prince himself.
If you think you’re going to get into trouble, throw a few gold coins at the cost of your life.
The two knights, assigned by the royal family to protect and follow the prince, drew their swords without refusing the order.
“There.”
At that moment when the sword was half drawn, a clear voice rang in everyone’s ears as if speaking from the side of the ear.
As I hurriedly looked around, I could see Akina holding a spear with a stiff face behind the prince and his party.
“Can I hear what’s going on right now, 3rd Prince?”
“Ahhhhh!”
Seeing Akina pressuring her, Zeride stepped back from her.
However, the fear-stained face turned into obstinacy and obstinacy.
“Sir, it’s noisy! I’m your student and I don’t need anything! I don’t need it!”
“This is the road that all knights must pass.”
“I don’t intend to be like that!”
“If you go on like this, the royal family will interrogate the prince.”
“If you want to do it, do it! It’s better to live in a hellish place like this!”
“Ha.”
Akina, who tried to convince her rationally as much as possible, sighed at Ze Ride, who insisted that she would go out recklessly.
“How dare you! I’m a prince!”
“Prince.”
“Keuk…!”
As he tried to question her daring to sigh with a pathetic expression on her face, Akina regained her momentum and felt pressure as if hundreds of kilograms were attached to her body.
“Looking at that, I feel regret that I treated you so kindly earlier.”
“What, what, what are you doing…Don’t come! Don’t come! Stop it!”
As Akina came toward her, her terrified Jeride ordered her to stop, hiding behind her attendants.
Selected from among loyal knights to protect members of the royal family, they approached Akina to obey the prince’s command, but
Puck! Bang!
“Oops!”
“Ouch!”
She knocked her attendants down with a flick of her spear.
“I’m very happy to see that he has a lot of stamina left. First of all, let’s consume that great stamina.”
“Ugh, whoa!”
Lightly knocking down her attendants, she tried to flee out of her city gates in terror as she pressed against herself with intense energy.
However, the gate guards did their duty by stopping Geride with their bodies.
“Let it go! Let it go! I will kill all of you for treason! I will annihilate all three generations!”
“I’ll have to correct that tone first.”
Akina grabbed Geride by the scruff of the neck and dragged him to the training ground.
“Aaah! I hate it! I don’t want to be in a place like this… Kek!”
When my ride tried to stop her, she knocked her out by hitting her on the neck, and stopped moving her steps.
“I’ll give you a vacation permit and a bounty in the afternoon, so prepare to go on vacation when you finish your guard duty.”
“Go, thank you!”
Akina rewarded the knights and guards who fulfilled their duties even in front of the prince.
There are those who are simply faithful to their duty, but that is an additional part.
The real thing was to induce rumors to spread quickly, so that the guards would not send the prince out of the city gates even when he was alive.
‘Whoa. It seems that he will suffer more than I thought.’
Unexpected that the character of the three princes would be this much different, she sighed secretly.
