Chapter Index

    “Are you feeling a little better?”

    Graham, who had been crying so much that the newspaper was soaked, nodded his head in embarrassment at Hild’s question.

    Looking at your expression, you seem to have felt much better.

    His red, swollen eyes looked strangely funny.

    Hild patted Graham’s shoulder a few times with a gentle smile on her face.

    Graham felt an inexplicable sense of security at that touch.

    “It was bad news before, now it’s good news”

    “… Is that good news?”

    Graham’s eyes widened meaningfully.

    Hild shifted her body slightly to reveal the woman behind her.

    Graham’s eyes widened.

    Soon the woman behind him ran up and knelt down on one knee respectfully in front of Graham.

    “Sir Stacia!”

    “Prince Graham!”

    I never expected the good news to come from Sir Stacia!

    Graham greeted Stacia with a brighter smile than ever, as if he had never expected it.

    On the other hand, Stacia had her eyes tightly shut and her lips pursed.

    “Kyung! I really missed you!”

    Graham got out of bed and put his hand on Stacia’s shoulder.

    I guess it was an expression of my joy,

    He is still recovering from his injury

    As I got out of bed, I immediately flinched with a small groan.

    “…!!! Prince! Protect your body!”

    At Stacia’s words, Graham smiled faintly with a frown and waved his hand as if to say that it was okay.

    “It’s okay. I guess I was surprised when you suddenly moved haha”

    “… Prince”

    Stacia felt her heart ache even more at the sight of the prince’s smile.

    “I’m sorry, Prince. If I had been there, this wouldn’t have happened… ”

    Stacia, who was shivering, pulled out the sword from her waist and stabbed it into the floor.

    “King! What the hell are you doing!”

    “Your Majesty, please punish the impious knight!”

    Graham glared at Stacia with a stern expression.

    It is a felony to display a weapon in front of the prince.

    However, she felt that her sin of not being able to protect the prince was greater than that, so she knelt down and stretched out her white neck to Graham.

    Graham was silent for a moment.

    “… Phew. Stop it, sir”

    “Your Majesty, please punish the impious knight”

    Thud- Thud-

    Stissaa was crying.

    Graham watched the teardrops fall to the floor.

    I let out a deep sigh.

    It is truly a blessing that there are still so many loyal followers.

    Although he had lost much and fled here, Graham did not give up.

    And he wasn’t the only one who didn’t give up.

    Graham reached out and gently touched Stacia’s shoulder.

    “Kyung, lift your head and look at me”

    “… That can’t be possible”

    How stubborn of you to refuse the prince’s order…

    But Graham laughed at the rudeness.

    This was more like Stasia and better.

    Of course, this is how our knight king should be.

    “King, I lost my father in front of my eyes and was betrayed by my brother. Now I have no one on my side, so will you abandon me too?”

    “…!! How could that be possible!”

    Graham said with a bitter joke, and Stacia retorted with a fit of a head-scratcher.

    Following the vivid tear tracks, there were hot eyes like burning flames.

    “It’s nice to see this Kyung-yi’s face”

    “… I’m sorry”

    “Okay, enough with that talk!”

    Stacia clenched her jaw and lowered her head.

    The silence continued for a little longer after that.

    Graham, who had been gathering his thoughts carefully, smiled brightly.

    “It’s too late to say thank you”

    “… Me?”

    “Yeah, I got some really good news”

    Graham and Hild looked at each other and smiled.

    If others saw him, he might have projected the image of a kind prince, but as I have said many times, to Hild, who was imbued with the spirit of ‘Kim Yu-gyeom from another world’, he was just a MZ generation member without a brain.

    “Are you trying to fight me every chance you get?”

    … So what the fuck, I’m telling you I’m a prince and you’re a commoner.

    Graham, gritted his teeth, looked at Stacia. Then he smiled at Hild.

    I didn’t know before so I spoke politely, but now I have a loyal knight commander so what can I do!

    “What, what, why are you looking at Stacia? What”

    But contrary to expectations, Stacia was just blankly watching the scene, and Hild, who had strode over to her, made a fist and patted Graham’s stomach.

    “Ah, ahh! It hurts, brother! It hurts!”

    “Who would talk informally to your brother like that?”

    Hey? This isn’t it?

    Shouldn’t the words ‘How dare you act so rudely in front of the prince!’ have come out originally?

    However, the person in question was just sparkling with eyes and saying things like, ‘Oh, that’s cool.’

    Graham looked into those bright eyes and shivered with a familiar sense of foreboding.

    Graham himself, as a prince, had been courted by many women, and he could tell.

    Yes, those eyes are the eyes of a woman in love!

    As the thought crossed his mind, Graham chewed his lip.

    I never thought you would take over Starcia.

    Then suddenly, a certain scene came to mind.

    Surely that Wangjijji woman and that Wanggungdeng woman too…?

    A purple cutie, a fox girl, and a sexy older sister…

    “… Brother!”

    “Why did you suddenly startle me by yelling”

    “Gu, I have a question!”

    “There it is, kid! There it is!”

    “… There is!”

    “Tell me”

    Graham’s eyes darted wildly from side to side.

    “Tongue, brother, are you listening to Starcia?”

    “Oh, we’re dating”

    “Hey, Hild! In front of the prince!”

    What the fuck!

    Graham felt his eyes flash as if he had been struck by lightning.

    The sight of that unlucky man speaking confidently and the knight king shyly twisting his body next to him.

    Am I really seeing reality?

    “That’s what you were wondering?

    “There’s more! Oh, no, there is!”

    “… What is it?”

    “The fox girl I saw last night…?”

    “Ah, Narae? Narae is my wife”

    “Ah, wife!? Then what about Miss Selene? What about Miss Circe? That purple child? What about the black-haired older sister?’

    “Oh, they’re all my wives”

    Graham fell backwards.

    Does that make sense?

    One person dating six people?

    “Are you saying she’s not a concubine?”

    “Concubines, that’s rude. They’re all my brother’s beloved wives”

    “… ”

    “That was the question?”

    It was the first time for Hild to be asked such a blatant question, so she scratched the back of her head in embarrassment.

    “That’s perfect timing. You’re a prince. When my brother has his official wedding, will you come and officiate?”

    What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

    You want me to look at society?

    Me?! Meh?! I’m crazy!

    Graham grabbed her trembling hand.

    Now twenty-three, the axe-wielding young man, who had had his love stolen six times before his eyes, trembled with anger and humiliation.

    The front becomes blurry.

    My nose is stuffy.

    Oh, you shouldn’t cry!

    If so, it seems like I really liked it.

    “Hey, are you okay? Why are you shaking like this?”

    “Where are you feeling unwell, Prince?”

    The prince raised his face at the sound of a voice that worried him.

    A beautiful woman and an unlucky man appear vaguely.

    “… What kind of brother are you! You son of a bitch!”

    Youth and unfulfilled love…

    It was an inn…

    There was someone sitting awkwardly on a broken throne.

    “Sit up straight”

    And in front of him, a small woman with cute blonde twintails was scolding him with her hands on her hips.

    “… This, like this?”

    Hagen still took his awkward stance on the throne.

    Louise waved her hand as if to say no, and Hagen repeated the same pose several more times after that.

    “Oh shit, I’m so frustrated. Come out”

    Finally, Louise, unable to bear the frustration, dragged Hagen down and sat on the throne herself.

    Then he put the crown on his head, crossed his legs, and lifted his chin.

    It was the very image of a noble and majestic queen.

    Hagen clapped his hands with a dumbfounded look on his face.

    The photographer who was watching the scene had a face filled with shock.

    Originally, only the king was allowed to sit on the throne.

    Neither the king’s wife, nor his son, nor his daughter, nor anyone else may sit there.

    That’s why it’s a throne.

    Although the king died in an unfortunate incident, Hagen was his son, but did not officially succeed to the throne.

    That is, no one can sit on the throne at present.

    But he made Hagen sit on the throne and act like a king, and now he is sitting there himself and acting like a king.

    This in itself was punishable by death as a crime of blasphemy and blasphemy.

    “Hey, how are you?”

    “… ”

    “Hey, are you doing well?”

    “Yes? Oh, you mean that?”

    “Then is there anyone else here with a camera besides you?”

    The photographer, who had been lost in the confusion, suddenly came to his senses at the sound of someone calling him.

    Louise, wearing a crown, sat on the throne in a slouched posture.

    You shouldn’t be there like that…

    When the words came to my mind,

    The photographer felt an overwhelming fear pass through his whole body.

    “Ouch! Ugh!”

    The photographer collapses with pouring cold sweat.

    He clutched his chest, gasping for breath.

    “… Hey”

    I feel dizzy.

    The ceiling and the ground were opposite each other.

    The photographer raised his head at the voice calling his name, which he could clearly feel.

    A woman turned upside down was staring at him.

    “Are you okay”

    The photographer laughed.

    I held my camera and raised the corners of my mouth as high as I could…

    “Yes, it works well”

    “Really? How is it? Like a queen?”

    The photographer answered.

    “Yes… She looks like a queen. A very beautiful queen”

    Louise smiled with satisfaction at the answer.

    “Take a pretty picture”

    # # #

    “I’ve roughly finished the basic work with this”

    Since the cameras in this world are just magical tools, you can check the pictures you took immediately, just like with a modern smartphone.

    Louise reviewed the photographs taken by the photographer without leaving her throne.

    Erase this, keep this.

    The photographer diligently copied down Louise’s orders into his notebook.

    “You wrote the comment earlier, right?”

    “Yes, you did”

    “Okay, then what else is missing?”

    Louise wiggled her legs and made a groaning sound.

    She was now producing a new newspaper.

    The idea is to create a situation where Hagen officially inherits the throne.

    Now that the King is dead, Graham is the rightful heir according to the rules, but he is now considered to have been murdered along with him.

    That is, Hagen is the only one of pure blood.

    But as you know, Hagen was a man who had been pushed out of the line for the throne since long ago.

    If such a person suddenly seizes the throne, there will be an explosion of backlash and chaos.

    And for this time, Louise and Olivier had been sowing seeds.

    Click-

    The broken door opened and someone came in.

    It was the sound of footsteps, not just one or two.

    Louise and Hagen’s gaze turned towards him.

    And then Louise smiled brightly.

    The man at the forefront of that smile forced his trembling lips to move.

    “Wow- Welcome. This is Captain Louise of Justia”

    “… I greet you, lord prince and brave knight commander of justice. My name is Count William”

    “Okay, let’s sit down and talk instead of standing?”

    “… Yes”

    A group of nobles, led by Earl William, entered the king’s audience room.
