Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 8. Time to go back (3)

The problem is that it is very difficult to go from being the Eastern Army Commander to the center. Then came the opportunity of genius Ilu to him in the car. It was decided to bring Prince Breton into the conquest of the Luo Kingdom and join the Eastern Army.

I had to like Prince Breton at all costs.

He stood there and bruised Lycaen because he knew Prince Breton hated Caith and Lycaen.

Lycaen narrows his eyes without a word and stares at Lord Chelider. Earl Chelider, who had gained his confidence in the appearance of Likayen, burst into confusion.

“Looks like there wasn't much of a choice after all. You don't know the first thing about it! ”

A nasty smile came to Riccianne's mouth.

“Then, what qualifies you to interfere in my conversation with His Royal Highness? ”

“What!”

“Is there anything in the laws of Bren Kingdom that prevents you from saying anything and allows you to interrupt the conversation? ”

“Hey, that guy! ”

“So just sit quietly and shut up! ”

The ferocious words of Lycaen make Lord Chelider's face furious.

“Yes, how dare you... ”

However, Lycaen's gaze was on Prince Breton.

“You weren't going to say that, were you, Your Majesty? ”

I can see Prince Breton's disfiguring face. And Lycaen smiled strangely.

“That guy……. How dare... ”

The Magister Chelider stutters, unable to say anything more. Prince Breton was the one who needed to talk. Of course, Prince Breton would never agree with Earl Frost.

‘That guy……. ’

Prince Breton frowns without me knowing how unpleasant it is to touch a nerve. I didn't like the smile Lycaen was putting on her face. It's like he's holding a knife sack and having good thoughts about what to do.

However, no matter how much I disliked it, I had to admit it. Now Lycaen is holding a knife sack.

Prince Breton knew that Lycaen was not the only one who put words ahead without proper repairs. If he said it like that, it was clear that there was a good way.

And now he's throwing bait at himself, the prince.

In fact, Prince Breton was moved by what Lycaen said there was a way to fix it. However, I had too many eyes to nod coldly. Touching his pride secretly was one of the reasons why he didn't nod.

Earl Chelider suddenly wedges in there and interrupts you. Though Prince Breton himself did not think so, it was recognized as factual, regardless of his will, the moment it came out of the mouth of the late Chelider.

It was becoming more difficult to accept the demands of Lycaen.

But now Lycaen was throwing bait at it. After saying something rash to the late Chelider on purpose, he gave himself a choice.

A very sweet lure.

Chelider has clearly crossed the line. Regardless of what Prince Breton thought, it was out of proportion. When Likayen bites the bait, she can clearly finish off the Cheddar across the line and realize it's not a bad way to fix what Likayenne says. Prince Breton's unparalleled sweetness has nothing to lose.

One thing was, if there was a problem, we had to bend our pride. No one would think that, but he was hurt greatly by his pride.

Prince Breton stares at Lycaen again.

You arrogant bastard! ’

But now there was nothing I could do. If we don't straighten this out properly, we could put ourselves in a very disadvantage.

It is unlikely, but in the worst case, His Majesty may have abandoned himself as a prince in order to avert the rebellion of the former Luo Kingdom aristocrats due to this incident.

So Prince Breton didn't have to worry so much about making his choice.

“I never gave the Eastern Commander the authority to speak for me. ”

I spent quite a long time with Earl Chelider in the Ruo Kingdom Conquest War, but this was not the relationship I had yet established. We don't have to take any chances in order to win the Chelider.

Prince Breton's words were horrified and embarrassed on the face of the late Chelider.

“I, Your Majesty! ”

But Prince Breton's voice was cold.

“Don't talk anymore. The situation will go quietly, but if this happens one more time, it will be regarded as ignoring me! ”

“Th-that's not it...! ”

However, Prince Breton no longer gave his regards to the late Chelider.

“You said you wanted a separate mantel? ”

“Yes, Your Royal Highness. ”

“Follow me.”

“Thank you."

“Now tell me. ”

Prince Breton, who came into the room, asked Lycaen not to offer him a seat. But Riccianne doesn't really care about that. I stood there and replied with a face that I was fine.

“Yes, Your Majesty. It's actually not that great. It's about where to focus. ”

“What are you focusing on? ”

“Let me make this simple. It is certainly true that the Starpalace where the people of the Luo family had been retired had been set ablaze. ”

“But?”

“But it has yet to be confirmed that all the people of the House of Luo were burned to death. ”

“Hmm? I didn't hear you scream for help once.... ”

Prince Breton tilts his head and looks at Lycaen. It was because the intention was not accurately determined.

“Of course it is. However, their deaths were not clear until they went inside after the fire in the Starpalace was completely extinguished. ”

The palace houses are massive structures, one on the other. The fire will not be extinguished until it burns properly.

Prince Breton nods and goes on to explain.

“This means that after the fire was completely over, the people of the House of Ruo could have been hiding in the secret passageway of the Starpalace and waiting for the fire to end. ”

If we don't understand the meaning of what Lycaen is saying after hearing the explanations so far, then we don't qualify as the next king of Bren Kingdom.

A deep smile came to Prince Breton's face.

“Maybe……. Must be the people from the burnt annex from King Luo's family. ”

“I suppose so.”

Then Prince Breton asked with a worried expression.

“But King Luo and his family must be brought before His Majesty? ”

“Don't worry. How many days should we avoid contact with the outside world as we need to treat it? ”

Once you get the people out of the burning star palace in a hurry, lock them up in the room, the people of the Luo family will be safe for now. And in the next few days, it was done by finding people who resembled the people of the Luo family and putting them inside.

“Well, then, in a few days, we can transport King Luo to our capital, Edelscht. ”

“That's right.”

“But there's also a considerable risk. We need to educate the people of the Luo family. ”

“With that education, you can play comfortably for the rest of your life. You can't help but get distracted. ”

I had to choose my place among the commoners anyway. Being able to live comfortably for a lifetime could be a very attractive proposition. So if you speak the truth, it's not hard to digest a substitute properly.

Prince Breton, however, was still an unsightly face.

“Even so, if I talk to His Majesty, I can see everything. ”

“What are you worried about? The important thing is to fix this. And by apprentice, I mean deceive the eyes of the former nobles of the Luo Kingdom, not the eyes of the king. Just send a letter to His Majesty in advance and it will be over. ”

It makes sense to me. If the fire hadn't leaked the news that the people of the Luo family had died, it would have been better. Even if the king finds out about this, he'll be happy to take matters into his own hands, but he'll be more than happy to take care of it in a swift move. And that might have been beneficial to Prince Breton.

“Good idea. How many days?”

“Five days. Five days. I will definitely save the lives of the Luo royal family. ”

“I'll take your word for it. ”

Prince Breton gives you a big nod and looks at Lycaen.

What is it?

I couldn't figure out why. An enemy of a friend. And to Prince Breton himself, a friend of Lycaen's, he was very hostile. So why is this helping?

"Trap?"

I thought about it for a moment, but I don't see any sign of it.

“What's the matter? ”

Lycaen asks Prince Breton to stare at him for a long time. Prince Breton hesitates for a moment, taking a deep breath and asking.

“What's the reason? ”

“What do you mean? ”

“Why are you helping me? ”

“Is that weird? I wonder when it's become enough to tell me why to help my country's prince. ”

“What's wrong with this? You know, it's exhausting to hide what I know. Let me ask you this, frankly, as a friend of Earl Gronst, why do you help me when I'm no good to Earl Gronst? ”
