Princes Battle to Concede the Throne

"In short... our prospects have already been achieved."

Is there such a coincidence?

Secrets of Immortalization. I didn't know the formation to gather strength was oddly consistent with the structure of the capital.

That superhuman power that the emperor possessed was exactly the power of the Immortal. Maybe our prince had the benefit of it, too.

"Let's celebrate, Moon Tianmaru."

"Wait. What toast?"

It was the ruins of Negijo in Moon Tianmaru that withdrew and returned.

I boiled the tea in a cauldron that was left on the abandoned cupboard and wanted it to be a celebratory seat, but there is no delight in the face of the Moon Heavenly Maru.

"What a toast is to commemorate my father's immortality. Now we can live as princes without working until we die. You're gonna have to celebrate."

Recently, Moon Tianmaru was also reluctant to inherit the throne of something and was in defiance. The fact that the Emperor was a Immortal even to her like that should be good news. Because somehow it was established that they would work as carriages for good.

"You know what? Do you seriously believe in such a yotai story?

"If it wasn't for all that thoughtful reason, it wouldn't explain the strength of that fucking father."

"Be cool. Wouldn't it be strange if the Emperor and you were not the only soldiers and servants in the palace?"

Hmm, I roar.

"There's probably aptitude or something. Never mind the details."

"Assuming that's the case, Tsujitsu still doesn't fit."

"What?

Your presence.

That's what Moon Tianmaru points at me numbingly.

"The emperor and the other brothers and sisters may need the reasoning of 'growing up in court and having immortal aptitude'. But you were strong before you started living in court?

"What the hell is that? You're just saying that I'm a genius, regardless of the special location of the court."

"... you're as confident as ever."

It's a strict fact that I'm better than my brothers and sisters, so I can't help it.

No, when it comes to pure talent, I don't even feel like losing to the Emperor. Perhaps the reason I've never been able to fathom is because the Emperor's throne is even more central to the heart of the court. You're filling in the talent gap with me with the amount of energy you get. Must be.

The emperor, who seemed like a monster, is just a middle-aged man if he can tell the karaki of strength like this.

and Moon Tianmaru looks out the window with only a rare face.

"But the brothers and sisters were good? He seemed to stay in the church."

"You don't mind. They're not the ones who get hit if anything happens."

"I'm not worried about my safety. It would have been like taking over a denomination and starting an inch business or trying to get your hands on the faithful. Can we just leave that criminal activity behind?

"Don't worry."

I slap Pong and Moon Heavenly Maru on the shoulder.

"Hit me if I were you before. But I would have stopped those guys. If I dyed my hands on religious incense business practices, I wouldn't have to wait for them to fall off the emperor's list. But now that I know the emperor won't die, it's not a story. There's no reason to stop those guys from discrediting themselves."

"That's not what I'm talking about"

The other three brothers and sisters are idiots of nature, but I have only ever played an idiot to avert the throne.

Now that things have changed, we don't have to match their stupid standards.

"On the contrary, my treatment could be relatively better just for what they did if they did the scandal. Look, Moon Tianmaru, this place should spill in with the sights of high view."

"You really have rotten sexual roots."

Without even trying to get my hands on the tea I made, Moon Tianmaru gets up off the floor and slaps the dust on his footwear.

"Where are you going?

"The court. In the meantime, tell the old man named that smelling deputy a series of stories. I don't know about that secret... but I don't think there's anything strange about the map of the capital."

"Oh, right. Tell your father about it. My brother and I are dyeing our hands at crime, so we should cut their budget in the palace and concentrate on me, the only good prince."

"Don't tell me you can do whatever you want as soon as you're no longer worried about your succession..."

It doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. Extremely natural demands.

A good prince like me should be treated differently than those three.

Only one thing, speaking of current concerns.

"Moon Heavenly Maru, by the way. What makes you think my dad got sick before this? Even though you're a immortal, is that what catches a cold?

"I'm sure it's because you're so disgusting."

Don't worry about that.

I wasn't so worried because I recovered soon after that, but if that was some kind of illness, my plan would almost go crazy from the ground up.

"You worried about my father. I need to be honest with him and tell him, 'I just wanted my dad to keep working forever to feed us'..."

While I was saying that, Moon Tianmaru was leaving for court without a sound.

――――――――……

"That's why, Mr. Smelter."

"What is' so '? You fool."

Asking the Secretary's Office of the Ministry of Weifu along with Moon Tianmaru for a series of descriptions, the alchemist on the desk held his head. As I agree with that, Moon Heavenly Maru is also nodding yeah.

"I knew you guys were moving so much, but I didn't know you really believed in the bullshit of immortality..."

"That's the difference, Mr. Smelter. That denomination has a secret."

I take out from my nostalgia a piece of paper with a pattern of denominational secrets. It was copied when I was infiltrating.

"What to hide, this pattern gathers the energy of nature -"

"If it's a pattern, I'll take it too."

Pilar, and.

Before I could tell you what the secret was, Mr. Smelter asked me to put up a piece of paper with the exact same pattern.

"... Huh? What's this all about? Were you in that denomination, too, Mr. Smelter?

"Fool. Did you think that these monstrous people who move in the capital are not going to be explored?"

"Oh, it's a boulder, old man. So, their aim is already under investigation?

Place the piece of paper and the smelter points to the whirlpool in the pattern. If you look at it as a map, it's a position that hits the court.

"That denomination seems to claim by chance that this pattern and the structure of the capital are similar. It has nothing to do with anything. In fact, that's what the executive guy you guys met said, right?

"Ooh."

"But it would be too similar to coincidence."

When Moon Heavenly Maru put in the horizontal spear, the alchemist spread his palms to control it.

"Of course I know Non. That's an excuse to escape."

"Excuses?"

"This is what you call 'a force sucking formation'. I don't know what the definition of qi is, but it would be roughly life force or life expectancy or something like that. With that in mind, take a good look at this formation."

What do you say, Grandpa Smelter goes on.

"It will seem as if this court is sucking up its life expectancy from the inhabitants of the capital"
