Master’s Smile

"Damn! Shit, shit, shit, shit!!

"... Ihihi"

Returning to his mansion, Linz reveals his anger at the sight of what was on his desk.

Vissen, watching it up close, was not frightened but grinning creepily.

"Teldorf, you bitch!! How dare you betray me!!

Linz tells him to throw up the curse as his head shrugs.

The figure of Teldorf, who always served as his sidekick, is already not here.

"Hey. In the first place, we were cursing Mr. Teldorf's daughter. If that's true, you can't be on our side."

Vissen tells the truth, but that doesn't reach Linz.

Already, Teldorf had officially announced that he would exit the Linz faction.

The reasons were, of course, laid low, but many of those involved in the king's selection rumored that something Linz might have done.

In the first place, Teldorf's chivalry spirit is close to Nina's thinking, not Linz's.

Nonetheless, many cautioned that Teldorf's support for Linz might be behind something.

Until now, such criticism has been Linz laughing with his nose, but the loss of his greatest power within the faction has not been laughable.

Furthermore, what was tormenting him......

"Besides, no, Prince Linz has to give up being king because he lost to Mr. Ritter in a duel! Yihihihihihihihihi!!

"Shut up. Yikes!!

Linz pulls out his sword and slaps his desk to death.

He stares at Vissen with a rough breath, but he doesn't try to erase the slightest grin.

"But no, what do you really do? At the earliest, there's nothing you can do about it. I've documented the duel properly! If we keep this up, Prince Linz will have to resign himself from the king's choice."

"Oh, can you admit that...... Huh!!

"That's not what I said..."

Linz thought he could definitely win, so he was able to make that kind of high-risk high-return duel.

It's not bad that I trusted you about Teldorf.

He was undoubtedly the Knight Commander of the Kingdom and the most powerful knight, and could not have lost to any enemy.

Even if Ritter, the Nina Faction's strongest knight, was the opponent.

But the prediction was wrong.

Sure, although the battle at the beginning and middle was in Teldorf's favor, the situation reversed once and for all after Litter used the power of the devil in the second half. Teldorf has been defeated.

That is how Linz closed his own path to becoming king.

"There must still be a hitter...! Do something, do something... Huh!!

"I have documents in the form of things left behind, so hey. It's possible to use Prince Linz's gesture to move to extinguish it, but Princess Nina isn't an idiot either. Already, I'm using documents to get it moving, so ha...?

Vissen says it doesn't matter.

Well, it doesn't matter to him whether Linz becomes king or not.

However, Vissen only needs to be able to do research. Linz also has a lot of research money and guinea pigs.

And Linz couldn't say it back to Vissen's words.

We could send assassins in to erase the documents, but there were no talents among the knights currently remaining in the Linz faction who were likely to complete that task.

Because it was Teldorf and the knights who admired him who were responsible for more than half of his power.

That Teldorf has fallen out, so the knights who admire him also fall out of the faction.

As a result, only rough men remained at Linz's disposal that could not be called knights in the end.

Sure, although I'm used to rough things, I'm not like the knights admiring Teldorf.

"Damn!! If so, what can I do......!!

"You just have to give up being king."

"You can't possibly be allowed to do that!! I must be king! It's not Nina...... Me... I should be king...!

That's what Linz said, but I didn't already have the idea in his head to break this situation.

Defeat the duel you set yourself up, crush your own path to becoming king, and still unnecessarily give thanks.

"Ihihihihi"

Such a situation was desirable for Vissen.

"Then you don't have to appeal to the earliest possible force."

"Hey, what...?

To Vissen's words, Linz looks up.

"Wow, you want me to kill Nina...?

"Yes! Look, you've done a lot of dirty things before, haven't you?

"But..."

Indeed, as Vissen put it, Linz has done terrible things many times before.

But if the person who kills him is also a flesh parent, there was something that wouldn't let him move one step forward.

"To, there will always be a man on Nina's side called Ritter and Master. I don't know about the Master, but the Ritter who defeated Teldorf is a pain in the ass."

Linz is also in and out of the Adventurer Guild, which doesn't mean he doesn't have any experience fighting.

I knew I could never beat a litter because I had the strength to be serious.

I didn't quite understand the master.

"Yikes! I guess so. My experimental animals won't help me any more than they've defeated Kimyra."

"If so..."

"If so! Let's change our minds! All you have to do is pull Mr. Ritter and Mr. Master away from Princess Nina!

Linz turns his eyes round to Vissen's suggestion that he will put words on his eating mood when he tries to argue.

"You won't be able to do that"

"No, Princess Nina is a kind princess who truly caring for her people, unlike Prince Linz. If you know that a disaster is coming to the people, you will send the two of you who put your faith away from you to help them."

Seeing Vissen with a mad grin, Linz finally realizes what suggestions he's about to make.

The sweat rises in surprise and the body trembles.

"No way, you..."

"Oh, the boulder is Prince Linz. Good guess. That's right. The way to turn the force on..."

Vissen bent his mouth all ripped out and said with a hiccup and a creepy laugh.

"- - I live in Wangdu, the people."
