Chapter 628 – [Cultural Festival]

Let’s clear things up here.

First of all, the people the crown prince flirted with and insulted were Shion, Luminous, and Asterope.

There was also Korma, but I thought he was a man and didn’t flirt openly, so I left it out. In order to weave politically, I had to pick out the obvious, excluding the ambiguous.

Oh sure don’t worry It’s just that I can’t do it officially, but personally, I’ll do enough to get Korma’s share.

Shion is my wife and dragon.

Luminus is a powerful figure in the Empire and the daughter of the Continental Ten Powers. She’s there, she’s my fiancé.

Asterope is the second daughter of the Great Forest and the head of the elves.

All of them are outstanding members and there were three people who could cause international problems if touched wrongly. What if I add me to that?

It is said that a kingdom is at least on the verge of going to war with an empire.

In the worst case scenario, elves would come from the Great Forest of Urca.

The Han Kingdom and the Great Forest of Urca are located in the east and west of the continent, respectively, so they say they are quite far apart, but that doesn’t matter in the war. Didn’t you think Hannibal crossed the Alps for no reason?

“Corma, you go to Ruri for a moment and tell her about this side. And ask Ruri to contact the Empire separately.”

“Yes, I understand, Your Highness”

If you don’t know, leave a comment. Korma couldn’t be in a position to contact the Empire, so he contacted Ruri instead.

We prepared to go out separately. I crossed the bridge connecting the academy and port city while dragging the fainting prince on the floor.

“What?! Your Highness?!”

“Ah, I saw you at the student council last time…… Do you work here now?”

“Yes, yes, but who is the person you’re dragging away…?”

“Prince of a kingdom”

“Yes?!?!?!”

The guy from the student council that I had told me about when I applied for a booth the other day had a white face.

Well, if you beat up and drag around the royal family of a country that is currently anchored, you deserve to look like that.

“It’s not about the academy right now, it’s about national diplomacy. This bastard is messing around with people behind him and arguing with me.”

“Ah………”

“I’m on my way to the capital of the kingdom I’m trying to figure out now. Oh, do I need a separate procedure to go out?”

“Since it’s the Cultural Festival period, anyone entering or leaving can come and go freely just by writing their name on the list. If it’s His Majesty, who is a member of the Continental Ten, more steps are needed, but in the current situation…”

“That’s nice”

Normally, a pass is issued separately, but today is a cultural festival. Rather than issuing passes to countless people one by one, it is best to leave a separate list and check it.

We left our names on the list separately and left the academy.

I went to Hanseong, the capital of a kingdom, but the distance was ambiguous, so I thought a carriage would be better than the 【Bridge Connecting Spaces】, so I took the carriage the Crown Prince was riding and got on.

“Go”

“Boo, please be merciful……”

“The road is wide. Go.”

It sounds like you are going to drive to leader, but in fact it was a conversation that the driver in charge of the coachman was trembling because he knew what horrors would happen if he entered the capital.

The war is about to break out right in front of your nose, and the burden of not being able to stop it even though the cause was right in front of your eyes is quite heavy. No matter how reluctantly a knight entrusted with the escort would not be without loyalty, the crown prince’s fault becomes their fault.

Since I crossed Zion, I had no intention of simply ending it.

The reason why I didn’t immediately kill the high-ranking Chinese politician who touched Zion and ruined China itself is because it is obvious that they will not admit their mistakes and bury them anyway.

It was only natural that China’s ugliness would hide its faults or come out shamelessly. Even if I asked for his punishment at the time, it wouldn’t have been done, so I just screwed it all up.

If a kingdom does not give up its crown prince to the end.

At that time, even a single kingdom will suffer the same fate as China in its previous life.

Of course, this time, like Baek-ri, there is no one to stop me in the middle, so the ending is annihilation.

Damn dag dag dag dag!

Horses who do not know the circumstances simply return to their homes as they are told. Inside the carriage, I laid the fainting prince on the floor and trampled it gently.

“Uh, um… Isn’t that too much?”

“I’m just wondering if this bastard has to become king or the country will collapse. It’s better to get rid of it before then.”

“When I saw our family, they said it was an insignificant family.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll even take care of Luminous.”

Asterope was a little worried, but that wasn’t her concern. They just had to go as witnesses.

I am the best at handling things like this.

Luminous and Asterope seemed to have some worries or thoughts, but Shion was just enjoying the moment without hesitation, just looking at the scenery outside.

“I didn’t expect to enter a kingdom like this, but… I’ll get things done quickly and do what I have to do.”

“I want to taste traditional liquor first”

“Let’s buy a lot and stock up”

So far, it seems that the news has not reached the kingdom.

The guards did not block the carriage entering the capital, Hanseong. The fact that you can get a free pass by looking at the emblem of a royal family engraved on a carriage means that the other side does not know the circumstances of this side.

In fact, it was natural. Communication equipment has not been developed, and at best it is only about sending people or letters through the 【Bridge Connecting Space】.

At most, an hour or two after the incident happened. If it took a little more time, the kingdom had good road maintenance, so the movement was fast, so it had a negative effect.

These well-maintained roads were easy to transport goods, but on the contrary, the enemy could use them. I know that if you go near a military base, you pile up a pile of rocks by the side of the road and have them explode in case of emergency.

Eventually, we arrived at the palace of a kingdom.

“Ohhh, that’s pretty cool”

“It seems that the first king was a fan of historical dramas.”

The royal palace of one kingdom took the form of an oriental palace, not a European castle.

Whether it’s Chinese, Korean, or Japanese, it has a strangely complex structure. If it was made at the time, it might have been a little strange because of the heterogeneous feeling, but it was harmonized into a single style through maintenance, repair, and improvement over hundreds of years.

In short, it should be said that it is not an Asian food, but a food unique to one kingdom. It’s so cute when Shion’s eyes shine.

“……..Im here”

“Okay”

I got off the wagon. As well as the prince.

All I have to do now is wait. Originally, in the process of cooking rice, the most important thing next to fire control and water control is steaming.

Oh, of course, if you use a pressure cooker or something, you don’t have to worry about it, but anyway.

You have to spend time until the rice is well-cooked to make delicious rice. I had the patience to watch the time leisurely enough.

Let’s wait patiently.

Delicious things take a long time to make.

*        *    *

The knights who accompanied us and used us as coachmen quickly reported the news.

Even if it weren’t for that, in the royal palace, there would be people who would know the face of the crown prince, and even if he was beaten with thrush and the corn was removed, there would be people who would recognize him by his clothes or face.

“Majesty!!!!!”

“Yes, you bastard!!! What did you dare to do to His Highness!!!!!”

“Bloke?”

I glared at the guy who frowned and shouted.

Not an article Judging by the clothes, he is a nobleman, but he looks like a high-ranking nobleman. Probably a noble from the crown prince’s faction…

“Boy? Noooooum? Nooooo?”

There was a guy who couldn’t figure out the situation yet.

There were definitely some articles that went to announce the news…… Ah, I guess they were confused with other news.

The knights who came with me knew that I was the 3rd prince, but those who only saw me here would have only seen the crown prince as a piece of shit. If the information was mixed, it was understandable that such a bastard would come out.

But I didn’t understand, and I caught another case at the point of calling the royal family of another country a bastard.

“You call me a bastard? To insult the name of the imperial family, you look at the imperial family as a courtesan!”

“My, Empire?!”

“I’ll make you the same as the crown prince.”

Wow!!!!

I pulled him with telekinesis and hit the thrush as it was.

Since it was like a vassal relationship with the Crown Prince, he deliberately gave away only the same amount of corn for the service.

“Count?!?!”

“Was he a count? If he’s at that level and still can’t understand the situation, he’s good enough.”

There was a saying that they were playing with each other. Under the crown prince was the earl.

I kicked the stunned guy and sent him flying away. I won’t die, but I’ll have to eat porridge for a while.

It seemed to be ripe, so he felt he had to get to work. I shouted in earnest to inform the outside world of the situation.

There are also knights who went to inform the news, but the weight of letting them know to the upper ranks and the unspecified majority is different. It’s the difference between secret and non-secret.

“My name is Worst von Frontier!!! I am the 3rd prince of the Empire, a pillar, and a member of the Ten Continents!!!!”

“What?!?!”

“No……..!!!!”

A lot of people were shocked, I kept shouting to drive the mood.

“The crown prince of a kingdom flirted with my partner at the academy and spat insulting words at his fiancée and the daughter of the Margrave of Bistra, the same Continental Ten Power!!!! He deceived Onee’s second daughter by spitting out obscenities as well!!!!”

“Uhhh…”

“The crazed crown prince is definitely!!!!”

Ah, looking at the reactions of the people who talk, it seems that there were people who didn’t just take sides, but looked at it properly.

I can’t help it, so I’m just leaving him as the Crown Prince. If there are people like that, the conversation might be pretty easy.

“I heard clearly from his mouth that a kingdom would be hostile to my family!!! The reason I came here myself is to declare war on a kingdom as a pillar of the empire and to inquire about its intentions!!!!”

“Stop, declare war?!?!”

“War, war!!!!!!”

“War with the Empire?!”

The Empire is not an Empire for nothing, and now that the Bistra Territory has been freed from the delusion, the Empire has boasted more than ever before.

Considering his national strength, he was a bit of a martial arts player because of his chronic illness, but now he is a better martial artist even with that chronic disease. In comparison, one kingdom was only an amateur.

A war is a kingdom’s inevitable defeat. I, the Margrave of Bistra, and I don’t know that we were dispatched, but the entire Continental Ten River, Duke Magnus.

3 of the 10 Continental Powers and 1 Duke of Jinyu, the 10th Continental Power of the Han Kingdom.

Just looking at the numbers, you can calculate that this side has the upper hand, so when a war breaks out, a kingdom perishes.

Furthermore, a kingdom has no justification. It was something that could not be undone even if the crown prince closed his mouth and bowed his head to apologize.

If you can’t win a war that doesn’t stand a cause, then all that remains is destruction.

Now, the crown prince had become the main culprit of that destruction. He is in fact more than a war criminal.

……Can you solve this without abandoning the crown prince?

“His Highness the 3rd Prince!!!!!”

“Oh, Marquis Sukyung”

Marquis Sujing, whom I had seen before in the imperial capital and who had invited me to a kingdom, appeared.

It seems that he was in the palace as he was a high-ranking aristocrat. I’m breathing hard because I heard the news and came to you quickly.

“Since you invited me to a kingdom, I think it’s really unfortunate that I came here like this.”

“……Your Highness the 3rd Prince, I will bow my head and apologize for the rudeness of the Crown Prince. So please calm down my anger.”

“When the empress said she killed my mother, didn’t she know that I, who had beaten and dethroned that day, was enduring enough to keep the crown prince alive?”

I shook my head as if there was no need to say anything more.

Even for the sake of what I want, even in the current situation, it is impossible to talk to him and finish the job. If not, I wouldn’t have raised the plate like this.

“Go and spread the news and gather people. I will listen to a kingdom’s opinion about my declaration of war.”

“………All right”

“In the meantime, I’ll take care of the crown prince’s recruit. Oh, don’t worry. Look at the face of the marquis, at least I won’t kill him right now.”

Marquis Sukyung took a step back with that. If it was a marquis, he would be in a position to raise an agenda in the assembly, but it was only a matter of time before a board was made.

Wow!

……. I wondered if I could hear the sound of someone eating something voraciously, but the three of them, Shion, Luminous, and Asterope, were talking while sharing popcorn from unknown sources.

“Wow! This is delicious! What is it made of?”

“It’s fried corn. If you ask your husband to do it later, he will do it.”

To be honest, this was a piece of popcorn.

Give me some too!
