Emperor! Can You See Stats!?

# Night Visitors

The Grand Duke was just listening quietly. I had guessed since I heard about the victory in the north, but he had the worst outcome.

“I don't blame you. ”

Dmitri also fell facedown after finishing his report.

"Three squads of shadows were annihilated, not even half of them left? ”

“That's right.”

Yurius has lost two squads, and once again, he has to lose half of his squad to the persistently pursuing baron and Yurius, retreating back from the second battle.

With the exception of the birth of Dmitri, the leader, he blew away half the shadow that had been devoted for decades.

The Grand Duke opened his mouth again thinking of the bear.

“Was the superhuman who appeared in the Barbarians so strong that the late Anderson was injured? ”

“Of course, I don't want to compare it to the Grand Duke, but at least it doesn't seem to be up to the new superman level. ”

“And what about the First? ”

Here he looks vague. In fact, he thought he had almost caught the first prince and missed him.

“Actually, I don't know the case of the First Crown Prince. ”

The Grand Duke frowns as he talks about the mysterious raider and the reinforcements.

Wallace? You did something useless. If you had reported to me, it would have been an opportunity to take the life of the First Prince. ’

The Grand Duke opens his mouth to Dmitri again, thinking of blaming him tightly in the future.

“There's also the fact that the first prince is better than expected, but not without your fault. I'll question your responsibility later. ”

In fact, I was prepared for immediate disposition in the Grand Duke's nature, but surprisingly, I was generous.

“I'm so sorry. ”

Seeing Dmitri take a sigh of relief and retreat, the Grand Duke thinks again.

Dmitri has a keen eye for self-raised disciples. Maybe I didn't see it wrong.

It is a pity that one of the great knights has already lost many men there.

‘But this is too big a hit. At least a decade's work has gone to waste. ’

Even the proximal knights are proud of you, and you lose half of your shadow. There, Yurius is returning to the capital with a foundation that is hard to ignore.

‘But it doesn't mean I don't have a choice. ’

Even if the Knights of the North side with the First Crown, the Grand Duke still has the overall power. Even though the North is likely to evolve, the stage is still under development.

Compared to the majority of the aristocratic power that occupies the rich lands of the south-central empire that have flourished for over a hundred years.

There's a spy named Wallace planted in the Imperial family, though he's been somewhat out of credit lately. He is also one of the cards of the Grand Duke's spleen.

‘The problem is the Crown Prince's position...... ’

If Yurius asks for the crown prince's seat as Vilmi, I honestly have no reason to disagree as the Grand Duke.

‘But we have to stop it somehow. ’

If the succession of the next emperor is decided here, all of his preparations will be in vain.

‘I'm going to put pressure on all the idiots on my side. ’

If all the Grand Duke nobles get up, the Emperor won't be able to decide easily.

‘But if you insist, there is only one answer. ’

To date, the Duke has not publicly rebelled against the Emperor in order to proceed as smoothly as possible. But at this moment, he made the decision to bring about civil war if necessary, as he did in Yurius' former life.

"If you don't want to see the country break apart, you'll have to choose well, Your Majesty!" ’

* * *

“I've never been, but the story of the desert is also quite interesting. ”

“I have occasional opportunities to trade, but it's actually not the easiest way for the Crown Prince to go. ”

Around that time, Yurius was thinking about talking to Wallace. Of course, it's also a matter of disposing of this old fox, but his companion was really unexpected.

"Is this the one with the big liver? ’

According to the stats, this Zamir guy is quite predictable. According to the Cult, he looks like one of those masked bastards with a slight status. He came here on his own.

Did you say "priest"? ’

In the meantime, I've only sent assassins with no names, but if it's a separate job, I guess there's a god who really takes care of you, just like the quest said.

Anyway, thank you for walking me home.

Whatever this guy is, he's likely to be quite famous if he contacts himself through Wallace. And behind its surface identity, there must be a cult hiding behind it.

Yurius talks to him in a seemingly fine tone and acts like a good prince.

Zamir is also searching for him.

‘You don't look so great from the outside. ’

He was also curious and came here to observe because he was sure to deal with Yurius next time, but in his eyes Yurius doesn't seem to be able to deal with the great assassins he sent.

"Something's fishy, but nothing's been caught?" ’

Of course, some reinforcements arrived on time and were lucky enough to stay alive. According to the actual report of survivors, they almost caught it in their head.

‘There are reports up at the top and I need to watch a little more. ’

As the search continues, Wallace brings out his original goal, whether he is running out of patience.

“By the way, I heard there was something about the Dye Ore during your training. ”

“Oh, you mean that? Maybe you heard of the Marquis. ”

“This is my business, isn't it? ”

"Tsk, did your wealth appetite overcome your aversion to me? ’

Yurius clenches his elongated tongue. While he and Zamir were talking to each other, Wallace was also timing to speak up.

There were two intentions when Wallace came to Yurius this time. We have the power to assassinate him, so even if the Assassin Cult has been thoroughly guarding his secret for a while, we can't be relieved.

The second is the dye vein that he discovered this time. The Ryan Merchant Guild is now losing a substantial portion of its shares in the North, making it hard to see the big profits.

‘Seeing that I was happy to face the power of the Desert Kingdom, even if I did get caught, I didn't get caught buying assassinations. ’

In fact, what he reassures himself is that he is as close to his guardian as he seems to be to Yurius.

Even if Yurius has left for the North in more than a year, where would he go? From his point of view, it is rather odd that Yurius suspects him.

“Actually, I spoke to Mareus. ”

“It is entirely the duty of King Yurius and the Emperor to teach him a lesson. I can't tell you what to do. ”

Mareus was only so desperately rejected. So, of course, the man with the greed down his throat had no choice but to come and ask Yurius himself.

“Huh... So you're not satisfied with your stake in the Dye Ore? ”

“Indeed. The name suggests that our Ryan Merchant Guild is the largest merchant guild in the Empire, but in the north it is too presumptuous. ”

Wallace asks Yurius to show his face.

“Hmmm... But the bureaucrats are much more expert than I am. ”

“I only trust you. Will you at least give this old man a chance? ”

I'm amazed you're so bold. ’

Yurius, who knows the inside, is amazed at his courage.

“Well, I don't think the Marquis will be much use to me as a favor. If I were Abamarma, I'd tell Mareus. ”

“Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

“Until I say thank you. Haha!”

The atmosphere was consistent, but this bizarre talk of three people thinking differently continued for a while after that.

“Then please take good care of her, Your Majesty."

“It's an honor to meet you. ”

“Goodbye. ”

After sending the two, Yurius smiles gladly.

If he needs a share of the vein, I can give it to him! ’

But the price will never be cheap. What does he need to support Wallace because he's so pretty?

* * *

“Aigoo, what a dump. ”

Stefan is going to look like a big city in the north, but it's an emerging city. Although he offered a decent mansion on account of his identity, he could not be more impressed by Wallace, an imperial objection.

Wallace sits in bed grumbling.

‘Still, you didn't seem to have been caught in the assassination, and King Yurius speaks well. Is it a success? ’

In addition, there was a meeting with the prince, Zamir. He is from a royal family that affects the Southern Desert and will be of little help to his business.

"Phew, shall we go to sleep? ’

Wallace, who had less to worry about, put out the fire in the room.

The moon is so bright tonight. ’

It was a full moon on that day, so it was a good idea to put out the fire. Wallace gazes at the windows of the moonlit mansion.

But at that moment, he was stunned.

“ ……! ”

“Shh!”

“Good night, Earl Wallace. ”

What was at the window was a guest he had never expected.

“King Yurius? ”

“The moon is bright today. It's a good time to talk."

Yurius smiles slowly from the windowsill. Wallace intuitively felt something was wrong. Where did Yurius come from and why did he come to see him this night?

“Haha. Your Majesty, what happened to this old man? ”

He is also an old man who has been in politics for decades. I try hard to pretend, but I'm already sweating cold water inside.

“Huh?"

Yurius looks surprised.

“Wasn't there something else the erl wanted to tell me? That's why I came here. ”

“What do you mean? ”

While saying that, Wallace was rolling his head hard.

‘This is wrong. ’

Yurius must have learned something about himself. And it must be his secret client.

“The erl seems to like guests in hoods. That's why I had a surprise visit.”

“ ……! ”

When he got there, Wallace resigned.

Never keep a secret! Information about the assassination cult was leaked. But Wallace still believed.

"But without proof, it's useless! ’

If we don't have conclusive proof that he commissioned us, it's just an accusation.

He has his own insurance. I have already made another site proof (alibi) for him at the time of his request.

Even if he gets out of the Emperor's clan for this, he will be the first to say no to the Empire! The Grand Duke couldn't have left him for good yet. This is your only chance to be a spy and get over to the Grand Duck Wave.

But next thing Yurius says, his eyes twitch.

“Samarkand!”

“Haha, I don't know what you're talking about. ”

So far, so good. But Urius' words continue.

“Pergana!”

“Kirin!”

“ ……! ”

“Oh, and Samoa, too? ”

“The southern cities of the Empire? Any relation to me? ”

Wallace nearly lost his heart at this moment, but he's trying to make it to the end.

“How can there be no connection? ”

Yurius hits the final blow from here.

“Isn't this where you conspire with the Grand Duke to quell the forces of the Desert Kingdom? ”

“W-what should I do? ”

Wallace came up with some nonsense he didn't even know was there. This speech was shocking enough that he was so old that he couldn't wake up.

‘I am destruction. ’

At this moment, he had to experience the despair of falling into an endless abyss.
