I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

A severe earthquake ran to the rear palace shortly after Cleo received Liam's letter.

A countermeasure meeting is held as soon as news enters Calvin, the Crown Prince, from a spy who was making him sneak up to Cleo.

aristocrats in support of the collected Calvin.

Such were they bewildered.

"The Fallen Banfield family was a little rejuvenated."

"A little? You should change your perception. The Banfield family is more powerful than it was at its peak in the past. Now the Lord is definitely a masterpiece."

"But kicking His Royal Highness's invitation is too much growth"

The Earl of Banfield watched quietly in court, either Calvin or Linus - who would side with him.

But I've come here to declare myself on Cleo's side.

The nobles are in great haste.

"- Don't worry about how the Banfield family and their closest nobles judge you."

"There are a lot of people who usually stay away from the court. Fortunately, some of them will be able to help."

"That His Highness's faction will be a third force? That's not a good time."

Calvin, who was listening to the meeting, was a good young man with a mustache.

I hear the nobles talking with a smile.

"Hmm, you've been fumbled. But what does it mean to side with Cleo? Was it Wallace? If my brother was on my side, I'd be listening to Cleo."

Wallace's name comes up during the meeting, followed by Cedric's.

"His Highness Wallace must have been close to His Highness Cedric of the Stars Army"

"Was His Highness Cedric the Major General? Sure, you were backed by Count Banfield."

"When you do, are you two factions over there? If there are any other royals out there who are helping, don't bother."

It was also troublesome for the nobles to have a move to support Cleo in the royal family as well.

Calvin exhales.

"I don't really want to lose my siblings."

The nobles complain to Calvin.

"Your Royal Highness, mercy returns with vengeance."

"With bad pity, it involves the life of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince"

"This place needs to be rewashed around the royal family."

If anything inconvenient, the nobles were going to kick it down without question.

The nobles are also desperate to make Calvin emperor.

Either way, if Calvin becomes emperor, the nobles will be provided with important posts.

But I don't know what Calvin would do to the next emperor if he were to lose his leg.

"His Highness Linus should also move without missing this timing. Your Royal Highness, let's move quickly."

There are circumstances within the Empire, but if the circumstances of the surrounding countries overlap and fight for inheritance, now was also the best time to say so.

Calvin nods too.

"If Linus could keep his ambitions down a bit, I wouldn't even have to move. All right, let's leave it to everyone."

◇

Different parts of the rear palace housed a faction of the second prince.

Linus, a young man with a better impression than Calvin, the Crown Prince, is the second prince in the right to inherit.

And among the royal family, ambition is strong.

"I got a report from a spy who was letting me sneak up on Cleo. Count Banfield says he won't join hands with me."

The nobles who heard it rush.

"Holy shit!"

"You turned down His Highness Linus' invitation?

- Your Highness, may I help you?

Linus is an ambitious, fox-faced man.

Open your eyes wide and think about the Banfield family.

"Not on my brother, and not me, is it Cleo who supports me? I wonder what this means? You mean Cleo's a better winner than us?

The nobles have kept their mouths shut.

A faction of Linus, but many nobles could not be included in the faction of the Crown Prince.

Some nobles joined Linus's faction for a one-shot reversal aim.

Some grand aristocrats try to emperor Linus and smoke good juice, but in quality they were beaten by Calvin's faction.

That's why I spoke to Liam, the powerful one.

"Count Kagaichi is the third younger brother to inherit the throne, who can't kick my invitation. - You can't forgive me, can you?

The aristocrats, who perceived what Linus wanted to say, praised it.

"Your Highness, we are now fighting with the faction of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I was wondering if it would be in the interest of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince if we also fought with the Banfield family here. Besides, I am also concerned about developments in neighbouring countries. It's foolish to leave you alone too much."

"I'm not really going to deal with them that much. It's an important time."

"Please. This is a very important time."

Even for Linus, there was no room for the Banfield family alone.

The movement of the neighbouring countries has become suspicious, and gaps are being created to penetrate there.

There was so much else I wanted to do.

"I know. But don't you think you need to be serious? He refused my invitation and sanded me with his hind legs. I'm not just gonna end it."

The nobles looked at each other.

I don't know what Linus is thinking - no, he seems to be thinking about how far the sanctions will go.

"So what the hell kind of bullying?

Linus smiles.

"Rare metal was his financial resource, right? Already the Empire has secured the necessary portion. Stop buying from the Banfield family immediately. Be tough on the merchants."

"Please wait! The Banfield family now has Krabe and Newlands on their side as your merchants. There are as many rare metal outlets as there are."

Linus knows that too.

Because I know, yeah.

"Elliot of Krabe and Patrice of Newlands are his merchants. The Chamber of Commerce itself does not support the Banfield family. This is where it matters. Some of them would want to kick their ass inside the Chamber of Commerce, wouldn't they?

I mean, I was gonna chase those two down to stab a nail in the Banfield family.

The nobles are convinced "to that extent".

Much contention interferes with the struggle with Calvin's faction.

"Hand to hand where appropriate. It would be best to keep it on your side and use it for a dispute with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Neither does His Royal Highness think he will reach out to the Banfield family once he declines the invitation, but too much hunting down could make him hate us and join hands"

That's what the nobles say, and Linus is convinced.

"I'm just gonna make you regret turning against me. But I will make you understand who the Earl turned against."

◇

"Kanpai!

It was a mass tavern there.

The college students got together and made a scene like every night.

This tavern is also made to make money thanks to the students, and there is a large group of students.

A number of gatherings have been held in concert.

And yet - and yet!

"Wallace, what's this all about!

Lonely at the counter, drinking with Wallace, I couldn't help but bump into dissatisfaction.

Wallace is drinking.

"What happened to your promise to bring a pretty woman!

Wallace had a weird laugh when I grabbed the chest barn and shook him.

"It's over. I'm done. Oh, they got my name on the subject of my older brothers. I'm involved in a drooling inheritance dispute."

Wallace is broken.

To the habit of promising to invite the girls, we are now drinking alone in a noisy tavern.

"What happened to the concert with the girls?

Tighten up the critical and wallace, but just laughing and no decent reply.

When I put him down, he started drinking again.

"Liam's idiot! Between my brothers and sisters, you got me or Cedric's name! Keep it up, they'll kill you no matter which one wins!

Inheritance disputes are life-threatening.

If you side with one of them poorly, they'll kill you when you lose.

It depends on the next emperor, but the way he's killed also changes.

If it's just an execution, it's still better.

Sometimes you lose your life in inheritance disputes, but it would be torture to be terrible.

Wallace is a prince who, for fear of it, was not involved in the inheritance dispute.

I pitied myself and poured alcohol on him.

"Calm down. I'm not taking sides with the Third Prince without a chance."

"WHERE!? Cleo has lost the same thing from the start!

"- What do you mean?

When I ask back, Wallace answers while drinking.

"Cleo was a girl."

"What?"

"I insisted that my real mother was a man when I was born a girl!

I wonder when I hear that.

Even science and technology are advancing in this world.

Even magic is quite a thing.

Is it something in a world like that that that doesn't determine a child's gender?

"I wish I could have a boy from the start"

"- It's your father's hobby. Cleo's mother's home, but she belonged to a hostile faction with her father. Also, Cleo's real mother was sent when his father took over the throne. Father forgave me, but he made me struggle so many times."

Cleo's mother's home was very powerful.

The emperor reluctantly handed it to him, but that he hadn't forgotten his grudges.

And a shady payback began, he said.

"I made sure the child's gender could never be changed. The doctor also held him in and never revealed his gender until he was born. Cleo's mother gave birth to three but they were all girls. It's my third and final chance, and if I miss this, Cleo's real mother is gone."

"Are we done?"

"We're losing our position in the backyard. There are other mothers who are having boys. Cleo's real mother, full of girls, will be treated less than they are."

To that extent, I can't say.

Anyway, it's important that if you try to be the women who can't get out of the rear palace, you will be positioned there.

"So you faked Cleo's gender?

"No. I heard you made Cleo a man. When I heard that, my father said it with a laugh. Then I'll give you the third place in the throne."

"A man would have no problem."

Are you even free to change your sexuality - this world is amazing.

"It's not good! If this is allowed, even my sisters will all be my brother! That's why your father made Cleo laugh. A fool who faked his gender and became a prince."

The third place in the right to inherit the throne is a decoration, and Cleo's position is bad through subtlety.

I thought you heard that.

- This is a chance, because.

"Nice!

"What!? I was listening!? Cleo doesn't have any future!

"Where? If you can work as a man, there's nothing wrong with that. Instead, I waited for him like that."

He is a prince who may be hostile to the existence of an enemy that may be His Majesty the Emperor.

Even without hostility, it will be true that we are not close.

I mean, Cleo had little connection to my "true enemies".

On the contrary, I resent the emperor - he will have a common enemy.

Well, if the Emperor is my enemy, though.

I'm still lucky.

Because there's a Cleo kind of person.

"Wallace, we're celebrating today. You can drink all you want."

When I say that and ask the store owner to bring me some expensive booze, Wallace starts drinking again.

"If you don't tell me, I'll drink it all up! Chikushi wow!!"

◇

A luxury hotel where Liam lives on the capital star.

One knight was assigned there.

Name it. [Klaus Sella Montt] - She's over three hundred years old and looks old in her thirties.

I'm an old face because I've struggled so far, but he's a knight who was supposed to serve the Banfield family decades ago.

However, it was not captured or petrified by pirates.

He's not even a knight who said he loves fighting, he's a regular knight himself.

Before I came to the Banfield family, I served other houses.

But the house was destroyed, and if I was looking for an officer, I would only have reached the Banfield family.

For this reason, we do not have too much loyalty.

I'm thinking of fulfilling my duties as a knight, but that's all men are.

Yet now I was in a position to command Liam's escort.

"How did this happen"

There has been an increase in sighs lately and I have taken care of it myself but I can't stop.

The reason is simple.

Because I want a stable life and I'm not really interested in being born or anything like that.

The reason Klaus is so close to Liam is because Tia and Marie were stripped of their chief and second seat positions.

The two of them are now snorting to earn merit while returning to their territory to hunt pirates to return to Liam's side.

Instead, it was Klaus who was sent from the territory.

Among Liam's Knights, it was basically plain to work.

I'm following someone, and I'm giving up my hand on the battlefield.

Sometimes I liked plain work, but when I did, I was usually born.

I was happy to be evaluated at first, but when I can take it so far, it makes me feel awkward.

As Klaus walks down the hotel hallway, his men come.

"Captain Klaus! Have you left yet!

"Let's do a pirate hunt near the capital star!

"Let's sell a fight somewhere!

Bloody men were still drunk today and trying to sell a fight regardless of who he was.

(Why do my men have so many bloodthirsty?

Those who save lives and have too much loyalty to Liam.

He who has served Liam so that he can fight as much as he pleases.

Those who don't know what else they're thinking - all those men.

"Prepare to hear from Liam whenever you want."

The men salute Klaus, who replies calmly.

"Yes!"

As his men left, Klaus dropped his shoulders.

"I want to go back to the normal Knights"

Excellent, but I don't like bloody men.

If you think so, Klaus' deputy is approaching.

"Oh? You're not well, Klaus."

The female knight, who calls out her boss, was dressed in chinese clothing-based knight clothing.

"Is that Chelsea?

Dumpling black hair on both sides, twin tails stretching from there.

Tall, supple hands and feet look like women unrelated to combat.

But she is a knight, and she is also a powerful man in line for Tia and Marie.

Name. [Chelsea Serra Towlay].

I wear red makeup on the edge of my eyes with my eyes.

Beautiful, but had a very pungent vibe.

"Isn't Master Liam coming back?

Klaus thinks this guy is the most dangerous.

(Why would Liam put such a dangerous guy on his side?

"I haven't been returned yet. And keep Chelsea away from Master Liam."

Klaus cautions.

The reason is simple.

"That's terrible. Because - I thought I could test the flash of rumors."

I was going to sell Liam a fight as a delight.

These flying knights are also present in Liam's Knights.

The knights of barbarian thought, who want to know purely who is strong.

Among other things, Chelsea has remarkable strength and can do her job.

"I should have said it many times. If you pull out your sword to Master Liam, I'm just sorry!

"- I have publicly stated that I would like to see my strength. So, if you were called to your side, isn't that the same thing you're telling me to give it a try?

Liam chose to be one of the escorts.

So he interprets it as okay to challenge the battle.

(Why do my men have so much blood!?)

Klaus cried in his heart.
