I Became the First Prince
228. 66. Sometimes a soft appeal is stronger than a knife (2)
Over time, more and more people are looking for my palace.
Among them were the lords of the provincial military camps, and now the lords of the British Empire, who were few in number.
And because of them, my life became very busy.
I thought I was a visitor and wanted to kick them out, but I couldn't let them out.
Half of those who found me were my father, and the other half were comrades who had been with me in the last war.
At least, if the nobles who knew my holy name had not given me a simple greeting, I would have run out of the palace more unbearably.
“No, I really want to sneak away. ”
I began to think seriously.
I have to run. I have to get back to the north for a while.
Others thought it was a good solution.
In fact, it also put the plan into practice.
Ambitious vision, I quietly slumbered.
And I was just about to cross the wall.
“His Royal Highness is gone! ”
I heard a familiar voice inside my palace one step late.
“You may not have gone far yet! ”
It was Carls.
“Send a signal! ”
At that moment,
Buoooooooo.
I heard the sound of a trumpet that could be heard on the battlefield.
Aggravation.
At the same time, there were lights everywhere.
“Former Knights! To your positions!”
“Inform the Watermark to close all the gates! ”
The sound of court knights and royal palace guards using whale evil has dug out their ears.
“Find Your Majesty! ”
There was also a majestic voice from the court knight commander.
It's like setting the battlefield on fire.
“Your Majesty has been found! ”
The court knights in the midst of the silence found me and shouted.
That's how my first escape went back to failure.
I tried again without giving up.
And I failed again.
The second attempt was made because of a magical boundary device that was never anticipated.
The third attempt was made because the court chieftains and other silver lions blocked the front.
Fourth, the court knights couldn't even try to keep an eye on me without sleeping.
A double triple siege created by mobilizing all the nobles of the kingdom.
It was ridiculous.
It was hard not to tell whether I was in the royal palace or whether he was in the middle of the enemy.
But there was something really bizarre.
“How could you do this to me? ”
He said, trembling with betrayal.
Arwen, Eli was right in front of me.
The gifted men I raised myself, the traitors who stopped me in the second attempt.
“I'm sorry."
“Your Majesty himself gave us a command, and what power do we have? ”
Bend your head and just one apple was Arwen, and the brazen one was Eli.
I sighed rather than look at them.
Now that I've come to blame them, nothing has changed.
Their horse, King Martana, stepped up and gave the king a royal order.
Besides, it was all my fault my plan failed so many times.
The sin of trusting Carls too knowledgeably. (First Failure)
The sin of summoning the wizards of the White Night Tower to the palace. (2nd failure)
The sin of raising Arwen and Eli as masters. (3rd Failure)
“This is all more than my karma. ”
The word "winner" means something like this.
That day I promised that there would be no further attempts at escape in front of my knights.
Of course, there was nothing I couldn't do if I decided to leave the palace. However, it was impossible for me to escape the siege that even the mercenaries contained.
If it had been another time, there would have been no commotion, but now was the time when envoys from other countries sought the royal palace.
I had to see the knights of his mark and the chattering like a madman to cut off the status of the kingdom.
Now that I've caused so much commotion, it was really foolish of me to come and take the kingdom's status canal.
Either way, I gave up my escape, and the palace was able to regain peace.
Only time went by without breaking it.
The banquet finally came one day ahead.
“Your Majesty is looking for you. ”
It was then that the king found me.
I didn't even meet you when I asked you to meet me.
I went straight to the king's cottage.
“Did you eat? If it's still an aperitif, let's come in. ”
The king brazenly pretends nothing happened.
I wanted to bury him right away, but for now I decided not to stay.
I'm just about to break my heart.
The protest was not too late after that.
The king and I were only passionate about eating quietly.
“Thank you, Ian. ”
When I had emptied almost all the plates in front of me, the king opened his mouth.
“I'm sorry your doctor didn't ask. ”
And when the king lifted up his head, there was a king who looked at me with gentle eyes.
“But I can no longer spare the prince's mercy. ”
In addition, he explained that he had handed over the gospel of death and realized the importance of the third generation, a decision he could not make as a father or as a monarch.
“So this time, I just want you to count my heart like this. ”
If it had been the prince's duty, the great man, who would not have cared about my doctor, would have begged me in a humble tone.
The jaw door opens, and the horse is blocked.
The protest words that had been prepared beforehand could not even be taken out.
The king persuaded me for a long time.
I don't want much, I just want to find a backpack. So I only hope that the future of the royal family will be announced.
They were all hard words to accept as I am now.
“I don't know what you're thinking. If you think about it, you will continue to fight the battlefield. And if you choke it wrong, you can't be held responsible for what's left of it. ”
Although the reason was somewhat different, it was to some extent inconsistent with my sense of irresponsibility.
“Think of it as a political arrangement if it's too much. Your opponent will also think so. ”
The king persuaded me for a long time, changing the controversy.
But when I didn't answer, the king made a compromise.
“Just sit back and watch. ”
I couldn't even refuse the offer, knowing that the king had made the maximum concessions he could concede.
“I'll just watch. If I don't have a woman in my heart...”
“I don't want to force you to either. ”
I got up straight after the conversation.
I didn't know there might be more annoying humps sitting here.
As I fled from the king's sleeper toward my palace, I stopped walking and looked back.
“I feel like I've been hit. ”
Somehow, I felt like I was playing with the king's intentions.
“I don't know. ”
I said you can just sit down, you can just sit down.
I felt a little less uncomfortable thinking about it.
Marquis Villefeld has found the king's residence.
“Your Majesty. The Villefeld crew has visited. ”
When the court knight paid Marquis a visit, the king himself opened the door.
"Your Majesty."
He bowed his head and gave an example, as if he were rude. Marquis did not forget to look at the king's face.
The king seemed very pleased.
So the monarch of the country will come out here and open the door himself.
“It looks like the story is over. ”
“Once I got you to the banquet, half of it was a success. ”
As expected, the story was good.
“According to the Marquis, the child could not even feel the temper, but was grumpy. ”
The king smiled, looking at where the prince would have stayed until a little while ago.
“His Royal Highness was strong to Bondi and weak to the weak. Of course, I'm not saying that you're an underdog. ”
“I don't know what Marquis is trying to say. It's hard to be realistic. ”
The king did not smile all the time.
“The winds are shaving solid rocks, and now it's just the same. ”
I felt really good.
"He is also like a mountain of rocks, so the fatherless have not counted his children's chastity, so he has no rebuke and no resentment. ”
Marquis nods as if he sympathizes with the king.
“He's such an intense kid. ”
But even the Marquis could never empathize with what the King had said.
Who the hell are you?
“Hmmm.”
Marquis hid himself in a cough.
“Not only the face of a firm rock, but also the face of a free man like the wind, tell the prince, do not slow down until the end. ”
Then the prince did not know where he was going, so he insisted that he should not be careless until the end.
“I'll keep that in mind.”
The king also accepted Marquis' testimony that he had now understood the holy name of his firstborn.
“The things you've prepared should work. ”
“I'm just afraid I'm not prepared to let you down. ”
“I've done what I can, but how can a man's heart move as planned? ”
He added a word with a firm face.
“If you can't do it once, you can try it twice, three times, ten times. It's the cause of the banquet anyway. Lots of it. ”
“There is a reward from the Empire, so there is no shortage of finances. ”
Marquis recalls a warehouse filled with reimbursement. The king was also very satisfied.
“Let's have a drink. ”
The king himself suggested to the marquis that he fill a cup of wine.
“I hope that the toast now will not be a dry toast. ”
Then he raised his cup and said,
“For Ian. ”
“To His Royal Highness. ”
The king and the marquis, who hit the glass, gave and received a deep glance.
It was the moment when the conspiracy of not knowing only the prince began in the heart of the kingdom.
That's how the night passed and finally the banquet day came.
* *
"Ugh."
I frowned.
It was because of the nightmare that my head was not clear when I woke up.
Turning the Mana around once, he scolds the frown, and someone knocks on the visit.
“Come in.”
My visit took place at the end of the day.
Beyond the wide open door, a line of maids and servants appeared.
“Your Majesty, I will be ready. ”
It was a long time before the banquet began.
Previously, I waited for the banquet to begin without being able to get ready from the morning and lie down properly, but not this time.
“Not now. See you later.”
In my words, the maids stood up straight without any embarrassment.
“Then I will come back at noon. ”
However, he expected this response from me because he had suffered from me.
I spent the whole morning rolling around.
Even those who came into my palace so boldly did not find me today.
It was the day of the banquet, so everyone seemed busy.
It was a good thing for me.
I've always hated the hustle and bustle of attending banquets in the morning.
But it was only until noon.
The maids appeared like knives at noon, as promised.
“Oh, that's annoying. ”
“If we are delayed here any longer, we will not be able to make time. ”
I am a fisherman, and I am not cooperative. The maids have sent a pitiful glance.
It was an eye with a lot of words.
If they get in trouble preparing for the parade banquet, they will be very upset.
With a desperate face, as if something big had already happened.
I couldn't turn my back on that gaze. I sat down as they led me.
“Then let's get started. Don't move for a second. ”
And hardship began.
The maids began to cast my body as a staple.
Corner.
“Oh, why there again! If you were dressed anyway, you wouldn't even be able to see it! ”
“just in case. ”
I didn't know what one case they were talking about.
I just felt that their faces were so weird and mean.
I wondered if she was the same person as the women who looked at me with a pitiful face.
Or not.
The maids focused on what I had to do.
In his own way, the royal maids had thick bones, but not as much as Adelia, but their fingertips were crumbling.
I left myself in the hands of the maids for so long.
“I'm done. ”
Released from them after being perfectly dressed in the tailor's uniform.
But just because I was ready didn't mean my pain was over.
Occasionally, when I'm in a frown position, the maids rush quickly and touch my cloak.
That wasn't a hassle. I rather chose not to move.
I closed my eyes and went into meditation.
When I finished meditating, there was an imminent time for a banquet.
“Your Majesty, I will take you to the banquet hall. ”
Kars appeared on his knees before me in shinier armor than ever before.
"Let's go."
I went straight to bed.
The court knights waiting outside the door surrounded me.
Choking.
Today, I was walking with the sound of a sharp iron armor hitting me, so I felt like I was heading to the battlefield.
Although what spanned my body was white growth, not iron armor.
I arrived at the banquet hall after a long walk.
“Would you like to enter right away? ”
The deacon nods and trims his throat for a moment.
Then he shouted loudly as if the whole palace were leaving.
“The moderate ruler of the Kingdom of Leonberg and the legitimate lineage of His Majesty King Lionel Leonberger, the most noble of all! The eldest son of the Leonberger family! Savior of the North! Lion of the North! Great Knight of the Kingdom! His Royal Highness Prince Idrian Leonberg is here! ”
Finally, with the door wide open, I stepped beyond it.
