Extraordinary – Ordinary – Soap!

[Insert] Eduardo, Flip the Anti-Flag (1)

I've never had this in my head before in my life.

Having lived as the perfect heir to the throne as my father asked me to, I have performed my official duties in a pale manner every day and have lived as the perfect "Prince Wang".

I don't even remember questioning what your father told me, and I've believed for the past twenty years that it's the right thing to do.

─ But that was wrong.

The first time I had my doubts was when I was ordered to end Maria. It was hard to accept what my father had ordered me to do, bearing in mind what was best for my country and what was right as a royal family. It is understandable that the card "Virgin" is attractive to the country. I also understood that you would marry me not to let go of the Virgin. Maria was a funny kid, and she seemed like a difficult jewel to me to be embarrassed by, so I even thought it seemed fun to live with her.

But I just didn't understand that if I couldn't use it, I'd kill it. The ancient Batis Virgin said she had returned to her former world, and thought that if she might be able to return, she could.

After consulting with Fernando, whom my father had attached to me as a companion, I began to look for a way to return Maria to her former world, and with the help of my companions, I reached the end of my journey. I was almost ready to return Maria to her world, and to tell you the truth, I had already personally spared her, but all I had to do was try it out.

Lucia's dead.

At first I thought she was a new samurai attached to the Virgin (Maria), as was Maria's unusual daughter.

I didn't think there was another “Virgin” in my country, and I changed my mind to the miracle she showed me. If Maria is the Virgin, then the magic is different, and Lucia, who can purify the Celestial Tree, is also the Virgin.

Lucia, who purified all the heavenly crystal trees with Maria, should have happily married that lover if she returned home.

She lost her life on the merciless orders of her father.

It was the first time I was furious when a man with her in his hand asked me why. I'm kidding. I throw it away because I can't use it. What do you mean, in Lucia, where you could use it as a knight of your own country as a variety of pawns, with Celestino with a slight mix of wizard blood muscles, albeit civilians, and a non-ancestral ability (one or the other), but you've already lost it, marrying him won't do you any good for your own country? Aren't you treating people no longer?

If she hadn't lost that power in exchange for the purification of the last heavenly crystalline tree, or perhaps such an end would have been avoided. If Celestino, the hero of salvation, and the Virgin of Salvation, I think she wore her father's glasses.

But even if she was losing her powers, she couldn't change the fact that she saved the world. Yet he decided that he didn't even have that fact. She takes her life, she takes her future, and she lies that there is only one Virgin.

I thought it was a serious thing to be king.

"Father is wrong."

"His Highness Edoardo."

Fernando, who leaps out of his room to see his father, blames me. There was blood on my head from the beginning, and I got a puffy cut in my voice.

That's right, it turns out this guy is under your father's command. Captain of the Knights attached to me with the trust of my father. That can't be without your father's shoulder.

"What do you want to say!

I leave it to my anger to look back - and I find out that my guess was wrong.

Fernando was quietly angry. For the most part, he was a gentle receiver, but now his new green eyes are glowing with indisputable anger.

"Do you think Florida Astorga is bad?"

"That's right. He took her..."

"With all due respect, let me say one thing. Your Highness, Edoardo, you are heir to the throne. And he and I are subordinates. Against the king's life is... difficult."

Fernando lay down his eyelids. but soon those eyes will capture me.

"A king drives another man's life mad in that word, and takes a man's life. It is very heavy for us, my lord, to say the word of the king. That is even heavier for Florida, a man of the Astruga family loyal to his royal life. Your Highness Edoardo, do not let your anger flow you, and do not be aware."

I felt like I had been tossed with an invisible hand.

I thought I was on Lucia's side. The feeling was there indeed.

But they realize that my position was the opposite. Fernando says that I, Prince Wang, am also the person who hurt her.

"Excuse me. I told you I was out"

"No... thanks for the compliment. I did have blood on my head. [M] The current words are inscribed on the liver. Don't let the king make mistakes with his own heart."

I bit my lips off. [M]

"Anyway, I'll see your father. Ask your father to confirm the authenticity of the matter…… and act (…)"

I'm in a position to rebuff my father, but not Astorga.

If so, there's one thing I can do.

If such a tragedy had happened because Father is on the throne.

You just have to take that place and replace it.

Parents and children were less affectionate than they were originally. My father, the trader, is busy and I don't recall much involvement. After my mother died, it became even thinner. We were not fathers and sons, but kings and their successors. I wasn't aiming to be like my father, I was just trying because I was Prince Wang.

Lucia, who followed the royal fate, lost her power for this world. Instead of rewarding it as a king, taking more lives, etc., means that you shouldn't.

To avoid a tragedy like hers, to find out where her remains were, I decided to pull my father down.

When I went to the front between my eyes, the Kingsguard, who had turned away earlier, was returning again.

"Is your father back inside?"

"Your Highness! Yes, no... Your Majesty has not returned"

Apparently they were guarding a deserted room. I guess that's what their duties are, but the way they faithfully defend the empty room reminded me of me so far. Because it was my responsibility, I was told not to think for myself, but I kept moving. I thought the knight who guarded the empty room was very similar to me who played Prince Wang without a will.

There is not a country for the king, there is a king for the country.

Yet I was not there for my country, I was there for my king. I have lived as a spare for my father as he wishes.

My father and I are different people. Even if I may be king, I can't live the same way.

If the Father remains king until he has sacrificed the Virgin, I will flip the flag against him.

Father apparently was in the bedroom.

Indeed, your father's health has not been pleasant these past few years. My joining the purification journey was also due to the imminent need to inherit my father's trail and reign.

"Father"

Pay up and go inside with Fernando.

"……… Eduardo."

From behind the thickly pulled lid, a more squeamish voice calls me than what I just heard in the sight.

When I went inside with the lid rolling, there was an old man lying there.

You're old, I think. Would Father have been so small?

"You know why I'm here, right?

"Well... What is it?"

Dry lips on the scab laughed.

"Why did you put her in the black carriage?"

"─ Fernando, or did you tell that story?"

"It doesn't matter who brought it. I'm here to ask why I did this. [M] Aren't you ashamed to be king?"

My father finally turned his gaze to me. [M]

"As king, huh?"

With that said, Father turns to the ceiling again. From those eyes, I couldn't read what I was thinking.

"It wasn't as a king that gave that girl death"

"Eh?"

In an unexpected response, I blinked.

"It was for you, Eduardo, who eliminated that girl."
