67 – The answer is fixed (1)

The prince in the original novel is at the point where he is gradually being pushed back by the 2nd prince whom the main character is serving by now, and it is the time when he is considering an alliance with the 5th prince.

Considering that at this time, the main character persuaded Laura, who had become his subordinate, to side with the second prince, and later made a decisive contribution to ending the faction of the prince by turning off Count Benner…

It seems that the plot of this novel, or the history of the Reich Empire, flows strangely because of my intervention.

Now that I’ve decided to side with the crown prince, wouldn’t it be best to make the history of the empire as favorable to the crown prince as possible?

To add a little more to this, it would be better to reduce the impression of the 5th prince a little more when rejecting the offer.

That way, whether it was intentional or not, I would be able to repay even a little bit for His Highness, the 5th Prince, who tried to feed me candy.

“Colonel Jaeger, isn’t it fun to stomp on bugs? Your face is full of smiles.”

At those words, I came to my senses and apologized to the crown prince.

“I apologize.”

After apologizing like that, the prince either realized my intentions, or he immediately informed himself that there was an idiot who tried to enslave Peter Yeager by going so far as to do stupid things in the middle of the ball.

I don’t know if it feels good to show loyalty by showing that I’m never thinking of betrayal, so I’m not even embarrassed.

His Highness the Crown Prince smiled similarly to me and said.

“Lt. Col. Yeager, are you drunk? face turned red It seems that he was still young and attended a banquet for the first time and was excited and drank quickly.”

From the Rhineland to the Czech front, in order to form good relations with the officers, without exaggeration, I drank two liters of beer at a time when I drank a lot.

There’s no way I could get drunk on the few glasses of wine served at the banquet hall.

So, he must have meant to go home and rest instead of being caught by other forces.

“I think I ran in a hurry with my youthful spirit. If you will allow me, I would like to excuse you first, Your Highness.”

Having said that, she had been walking fine until just now, but she asked Laura to call a servant to pretend to be drunk.

At this level, even if his face was fine, he would look like an aristocrat who had been drinking a lot and was excited about the first banquet.

At least, at banquets, it’s not a problem to get caught by making mistakes or insulting others, and it’s no big deal if you’re forced to leave first because it’s just a funny rumor.

“Lieutenant Colonel, are you okay? It seems like His Highness the Crown Prince is drunk enough to say he’s drunk…”

I really appreciated her concern for me, but I was really fine.

I spoke in a whisper so low that only Laura, who was almost next to me, could hear it.

“Didn’t His Highness the 5th Prince try to enlist me at the banquet hall just now? That’s why His Highness, the Crown Prince, told me to pretend to be drunk and leave, so as not to cause more trouble. I’m fine, don’t worry.”

When Laura heard that, she nodded her head in relief, and we were able to safely enter the ball.

To be precise, I safely dismissed the invitations from other nobles to move to another faction, and with Laura’s help, I neatly cleared the ladies’ tails, so this should be considered a good save.

However, the problem of having to go personally after being invited by the damned 5th prince remained.

Even so, he dealt with the crown prince’s invitation as well as he could.

I think you can go back.

Now… Then, how should I reject the proposal of the 5th Prince?

Lunch on Saturday, six days after the prom.

At this time last week, it was time to organize the contents of the lecture and enjoy a bit of leisure.

The 5th Prince called me, so today I am going to the mansion where the prince lives.

sh*t, I thought I’d come to the center for a while and enjoy some leisure time, but it was useless.

When I suppressed the irritation in my heart and arrived at the mansion on the west side of the Reichburg suburb, I was greeted by an elderly butler.

“Are you Baron Peter Yeager? I am Gilliam Wagon, the butler serving the 5th Prince. Her Highness asked me to wait for a while as she will be going out for a while.”

“Don’t let that happen. Where can I wait?”

“Please wait in the drawing room inside the mansion. It will take about two hours, so shall we prepare a meal first?”

There was no way that a person equal to the 5th prince would be poisoned to kill me alone, and now I am not a target to be killed, but a person to be embraced.

So there’s no way he’d try to assassinate him by poisoning him.

Also, no matter how opposed the faction is, if they refuse the favor offered by the royal family, they will get a bad reputation for being too arrogant.

It couldn’t have been like that in the first place.

“I’ll have to thank you for the kindness you’ve shown me in person later.”

“Your Highness told us to pay special attention, so we prepared the best meal possible according to that order.”

After being guided by the butler, they entered the mansion’s drawing room, which was very luxuriously decorated.

Although it was not as good as what I had seen in the banquet hall, there was a large chandelier hanging from the ceiling, portraits of the 5th prince, his parents, and family on the walls, beautiful landscape paintings, and the desk, perhaps made of carved marble, gave off a very dignified and luxurious feel.

Also, the butler has already finished preparing to serve the food in time for my arrival.

Soups, steaks, bread, roast beef, and wine were prepared in so many ways that I couldn’t eat them all by myself.

When you usually treat a noble, having so much food prepared symbolizes that my kindness towards you is this great.

The 5th prince must have wanted to recruit me somehow.

“This is a meal with the thoughts of His Majesty the 5th Prince thinking of Lieutenant Colonel Jaeger.”

“Your Highness’s kindness is so great that I think it’s undeserved. I will make sure you eat well.”

Just as I was about to bring the knife to the steak to start eating, the butler next to me waved a silver bell.

Then, a woman came in wearing a maid outfit, or rather, a dress with a much shorter skirt than the typical maid outfit, revealing her thighs and revealing her breastbone.

Fair skin, dark eyes, even if not a doll, a look that will attract many people’s attention if you meet them while walking on the street.

Damn, I don’t feel good about this.

The butler standing next to me looked at her and smiled.

“This girl is called Marie, and she just turned 20. I brought it because I feared that it would be somewhat boring until His Highness returned after the meal. Then I’ll just go out.”

I heard that bad premonitions are always right, but what does it mean that I brought you here because I was afraid of getting bored…

Just looking at it, doesn’t it mean that she is a girl who will serve you sexually?

Also, if I suddenly touch my hand, the 5th prince of the house will laugh and say, right?

‘I’m glad you liked it. I will give my special gift to the hero of the empire.’

Then, through that girl, he intends to dig up some information about my private life one by one.

Meanwhile, a girl called Marie tried to wait in front of me with clumsy hands.

“I prefer to cook meals with my own hands. Also, because I stayed up all night preparing for a lecture at the Staff College yesterday, I want to get some sleep. I’ll just eat and I’ll get some sleep right away.”

At that, the girl named Marie began to show signs of uneasiness at not fulfilling her duties.

If I recklessly rejected this girl, the 5th prince might catch me…

“It is truly an honor to be able to enjoy such luxury thanks to His Highness, but I cannot spoil myself.”

Then I handed a five silver coin to the naked maid in front of me and said,

“This is a token of my personal gratitude to you. If I tell this to His Highness, he will understand everything.”

“Thank you, Baron.”

Now this girl will later be able to tell the prince that I refused because I was exhausted from spending the night before, and as proof of that, she will report that I gave her a mere maid five silvers.

Then, since I expressed my gratitude to the 5th prince for his kindness, there is no reason to complain or be offended.

So I moderately enjoyed the sumptuous meal prepared in front of me, sat down on the sofa until the prince called, and actually fell asleep.

After a while, I heard the tinkling of papers in my ears.

“You must be very tired. Your Highness the Prince has arrived. follow me I will guide you directly to Her Highness’s office.”
