160 months ago
... when I was eight years old.
Until then, there was little interaction with my brother, the second prince born four years ago.
As the first prince, I was chased daily to study, and I had nothing to do with it because my brother was born.
The royal family does not watch its growth with its parents like the people do. Just like I was. My brother Cedric has had a nanny ever since he was born, his teachers have taught him, and his squire has watched him grow.
There is no such thing as my role as a brother.
We're close enough to line up next to each other at the ceremony. I don't play a very good brother in front of the people, but honestly, I don't feel like a "brother."
However, only Cedric's rumors and reputation have long been in my ears in relation to living in the same castle and being the first and second princes.... at the same time, pity for me.
It didn't matter in itself. For example, no matter how different between me and Cedric, what I aim for remains the same.
Books about the outside world that had been unleashed at the deepest end of the castle's library. After seeing it two years ago, I learned about the breadth of the world and the narrowness of my own country.
It was my dream to be a good king, and to truly unite the kingdom of Hanazoo and expand the world of the people.
There is no time for jealousy or envy for that. For that matter, all I have to do is try and work harder than anyone else.
However, I felt that the feeling of "brotherhood" faded with each day that Cedric was too different from himself.
"Brothers, on the contrary, I felt further away than others... in the existence of a different world.
That day, as usual, was when I was walking through the castle to finish my studies and rent new books.
"… and the land even stretches with horizons and exotic flowers. It was precisely the paradise of this world. A mirage emerged as we continued to walk ten days ahead of the desert. A mirage is a desert zone…"
"Wonderful, Master Cedric."
From the library of the castle, and from the small room adjacent to the book storage area further back, the voices of the children's pale voices and the old men who looked excited echoed in many ways.
"When I hear the name Cedric, I sigh again at the rumors of the example. Cedric's rumors spread to the country as opposed to the castle. It was time to take only the necessary books and try to cross the small room, wondering if perhaps even a special handshake was taking it to the upper level again.
"Regent Bertrand! Please stop. Master Cedric is only four years old. It's time to rest…"
"Shut up, Dario. Don't let the young prime minister talk to me! This one's special! There's no reason for me to instruct you more than to educate you myself."
Stop for an argument that is not calm. The Regent of Bertrand, the Regent of my country who is old enough not to give up his seat to the next generation.

It continued to overlap the voice of a boy who read something out emotionally again during the debate. Now it's a language I don't know at all. Is it just speaking appropriately, or is it an… exotic language on another continent?
But why is Regent Bertrand here too much doubt? Sure, Chancellor Dario would have been ordered to follow Cedric now...
Chancellor Dario was still a young but brilliant and heartfelt Chancellor. I've been looked after several times, too. I cared for him, who shouted so pitifully, that I ordered the guards to open the door to that room.
"The beautiful maiden shed her swinging golden hair, and her white skin was like a white fish. I am blinded by the beauty that I do not see in this world, and I gently put my finger on its hair. The maiden's cheeks stained when she mouthed her hair, and it was as if it were a flower called the exotic" Sakura ". I knelt before my maiden, and likened her beauty like this..."
Whether it was a different book than earlier, something completely different was spun in the boy's voice again.
If you peeked inside first from the gap in the door, there was a small desk and many adults lined up to surround it. Cedric is surrounded. Beside him was Regent Bertrand and Chancellor Dario, who desperately tried to stop it.
Peeping into Cedric's appearance through the adult gap, I doubted my eyes.
"World coordinates, 47.194747293736273849, -122.837265393816639, the united kingdom of hanazoo is a circus, chinese and its history is long, and its built origins begin with Judah Silva Lowell..."
Cedric... didn't read anything.
I was just looking at the cover of the book Bertrand shows me and reading through its contents. Moreover, the book cover shown by Bertrand was mixed from the language of this continent to other continental and exotic objects.
"Wonderful. Not only can you remember the contents of the book, but you can recite it even with an exotic language translated, etc!
"This is exactly what God does."
The men standing around the Bertrand Regent rejoice and praise them with a tranced look. In which Cedric
"Also known as the treasure trove of the golden vein, many nations gathered in its beauty to desire its gold. Among other things, the exclusive rights with minerals of the neighbouring kingdom of Sursis were extremely intense. But the invasion attacks from the then more powerful Kingdom of Copelandi led to the two countries"
... even kept reciting the contents of the book served.
It's a sight off the track. Furthermore, Cedric, contrary to the way he looked up slurred from his young mouth, his complexion stared so dark that he could tell from a distance, his eyes dull as a doll in vain, and he was dripping even more unusual sweat from all over his face.
Leave it to anger and open the door strong.
Batam! I punch him in the spot with a painful sound in his ear.
"Stop it! You guys...! What are you doing to my brother?"
Everyone opened their eyes to my anger, the first prince, and hid their faces.
Even though he was eight years old, the royalty of this country had absolute power. Naturally, far more power than regents.
"Ra... His Royal Highness Prince Lance..."
Regent Bertrand let his eyes swim in a hurry. I walk inside and I approach them in a straight line.
"What are you doing?" "What are you forcing Cedric, four years old?" "Look how long he's been locked in here."
"It will be 49 hours and 32 minutes and 55 seconds with hand wash, meal and sleep time.
It was Cedric who opened his mouth before Regent Bertrand, who was in a hurry and wobbly with his lips. The pale mouthfeel had no emotional subtlety. However, his eyes directed at me stared and he was a terrible breather when Regent Bertrand stopped reciting because he hid the book.
"Have you been locked up like this for two days? Does your father and mother know about this?"
I yell at the Bertrand Regent and the adults around me as much as I can, not Cedric, who answered.
Then I put Regent Bertrand down and the grownups ran towards the door with their faces hidden from me so they could escape. The Bertrand Regent screams at me not to leave me, and absurds my voice that I too should not flee, but no one stopped. Some guards chased them on my orders.
"Who the hell are these people now, Bertrand?"
"Yes... no, me too, someone at all..."
"There's no reason you don't know." "I'll check everyone out if you don't talk."
"Chuck James, Colin, Eaton Hamm, Gabin Firth, Felix, Florence Gregory... Chuck James, Colin, Eaton Hamm, Gabin Firth, Felix, Florence Gregory, Chuck James, Colin, Eaton Hamm, Gabin Firth, Felix, Florence Gregory..."
Also Cedric opened his mouth.
He even repeated his human name, making his breath even rougher. Bertrand opens his mouth to the point where his jaw is about to come off and looks back at Cedric. Then Chancellor Dario, who was beside him, put his hand on Cedric's shoulder and said in tears, distorted in pain, "It will be the name of those who were there earlier. All of them, former superiors of our castle, who have already left office," he said. Bertrand shouted, "You don't mind," but Chancellor Dario bowed his head to me.
"It is my responsibility not to defy the Regent of Bertrand and not to protect you... I am sorry..."
Prime Minister Dario apologizes to me as he swallows. And somehow I slowly walk over to my brother sitting right in front of me, caught in the tranquil and pitiful hands of the Bertrand Regent.
Looking at that bright blue complexion, I quietly remembered the rumors I had heard of Cedric many times throughout the castle.... its, along with an alias.
"... brother.
My brother, who almost lost his blood, kept staring at me without even knowing what he was doing now. For the first time outside of the ceremony and official business, I confronted my brother.
"... let's go, Cedric. I'm going to Father's now. And when it's over."
"Kamiko" Cedric Silva Lowell.
"Come straight to my room.
That was my first conversation with Cedric as a brother.
Lance Silva Lowell.
Despite the first prince, the (...) first (...) king (...) son (...) of the mortal (...) man (...) is so questionable about his right to inherit the throne.
I have the alias Divine Son and a second prince to my brother who was worshipped by everyone as a genius,... it's my name.
