Egret

Chapter 7. Chicken Game

Uni, who sat still on his shoulders all along, frowned instead.

"Wow, that man must not have gotten a drop of blood even though he was stabbed.

"Aien, is there a human without blood?

I mean, you're not human.

……!?

Judas smiles bitterly at the hoes of Uni and Tony and hands over the cocoa to his neck.

“It's... sweet. ”

To him, who could not normally be twelve years old as the Emperor thought, was grossly sweet. If the sweetness is too sweet, it feels rather bitter.

That evening, the Lubarzan palace was turned upside down.

It was because the Emperor referred to the First Crown as the heir to the Crown Prince. It was not an official announcement and it was a declaration made at the rock, but its repercussions were considerable.

The ruling class began to radically diverge in its flows, at a level that simply restrained one another.

The boat sailing in the wind meets the rapids and turns in the wrong direction at all.

The nobles who stood in neutrality obeyed the Emperor's will without resorting greatly.

However, the nobles tied to the Empress's hand kept their mouths shut like rocks. They did not react, nor did the riders interact with each other in a humid manner.

The rumor that the Crown Prince would ascend to the throne spread to the capital and neighbouring areas in the morning. Those who came across it were greatly discouraged.

‘The First Crown Prince? Not the Third Crown Prince? ’

‘Wasn't the first prince like a powerless porcelain doll? ’

In the meantime, the rumors were questionable, as the level of sinking was deep. Later, rumors of the trend of the First Crown followed further.

‘In fact, he was hiding his power. ’

Rumors of outstanding grades and the talents that followed him were also circulating.

Especially the advantage he has is that people say, 'Really!’ It was a tremendous thing that made me nod.

A spirit master who deals with 3 attributes in the natural world at once.

Like a star in the Empire, the power of the Spirit has always amazed the Empire, as the contemporary Igret, who now hides his longevity, is still praised as a great man.

Consequently, myriad eyes turned to the First Prince. There was a mix of positivity and negativity, but it did not rise above the surface.

The same was true of the group that followed him when he heard the news.

Edan and Baikal were relatively calm because he had a bar that was unpacked beforehand, but the other three were quite astonished.

Cristina listened to Judas' determination and gave him a worrying look at his back.

‘Something must have happened. ’

As she knew, Bondi Judas was not on her side first.

Moreover, even in time, it was said that it was not enough to confront the Three Kings. The great axis of the ruling class was supporting him, centered on Marquis Castle, who was the sole force of the Three Kings.

On the contrary, the First Prince had no formal followers.

Even if Edan or Cristina were the Duke's Resistance, they were not a real power class because they were still children.

Rather, he inherited the power of the Emperor and was soon to be expected by the two princes who were deeply interested in magic.

So now it was time to grow more strength and gather forces.

Of course, his determination was quicker than expected, but Cristina took it for granted that he would ascend to the throne.

Worried were the events that prompted Judas to fulfill his determination ahead of time.

“Ha.”

Cristina sighs as she sweeps over the hair she shed in frustration. Then I saw Judas in the air looking back.

As I closed my sigh and looked at him, the prince smiled as usual.

“Don't worry. ”

“ ……. ”

As always, the shrewd emperor is penetrating what they are thinking.

On the contrary, Cristina choked a little in a gentle voice that would silence those who were concerned.

However, she was not a girl clumsy enough to reveal her psychology. I maintained a cold season with no elevated emotions.

The official Taoist bookkeeping ceremony was held in July at the end of a semester in Lubach. Until then, they return to Lubach to pursue their studies.

It was a short period of preparation for the First Crown.

Judas, dressed in his original uniform, returned to the portal with the group. It was the day his son left, but the Emperor did not shine.

I was that busy, but I was also a careless person who didn't care about the day coming and going.

After arriving at the majestic portal management room, the group encountered an unexpected figure in front of him.

“…… See the Emperor Mama. ”

Judas bowed and greeted the representative, while the other children bowed and gave examples.

The Empress, who appeared before them with the 3rd Prince, was greeted with an elegant smile.

“Are you leaving already, Your Highness? I wish I could have stayed a little longer. ”

Before she became Emperor's wife, her name was' Saya Castle ’.

Born and raised under extreme care as the only daughter of the most prestigious Marquis of Castle, the Empress was the typical beauty impression sought by the Empire.

Her skin was smooth, without wrinkles, and her body was virginal.

“Our prince is bringing his classmates here, but he can't even say hello properly. This guy is a shame. ”

She was very sad. And that regret was serious.

1If the prince had been given more time to stay in the Imperial Palace, the time for processing him could have been shortened.

The sooner the process was good, the better because Empress Judas wanted to eliminate him before he reached the crown prince position.

Like Lubach, it becomes more complicated to use your hands in places that are well-maintained and out of reach. However, the Emperor could not hold his hand still.

No one doubted the interior of the palace, no matter how foolish it had to be.

However, only six children wearing Lubach's uniform penetrated the truth.

“Well, I'll see you at the book festival. ”

“Yes, Your Highness. ”

The Empress' eyes hardened in the words of the book ceremony. However, it did not change as much as a smiling purchase, but was gently curved.

Then I opened my mouth with a face that didn't let out even the Three Kings Sage who was standing next to her.

“…… have a good day. ”

Last time that expression management skill was a formal greeting with a stare at where it had gone.

The two men left behind and the group went to the portal. Judas didn't have to use his powers to amplify the power of the portal.

Immediately after grasping the coordinates to the Lubach institute, they slowly entered the black vibrating portal.

Just before entering, I saw the Empress' red lips smiling harshly in Judas' gaze.

‘…… if you can. ’

Judas, who reads the shape of her mouth, pauses for a moment, but turns his head without being foolish and enters the portal.

Quuuuuu.

Seeing the black magic swallowing them, the Empress slowly lowers her smiling tail.

‘I would welcome you if I could come back alive. The Emperor.’

“..... but Mother. ”

The Empress looked down at her child with a compassionate face. My only nine-year-old son was more brilliant than his peers and was a good listener to his mother's words.

Sage asks, looking up at her, a little bitter.

“Are you..... really ‘fake’ right? ”

“…… Sage. ”

The Empress arranged the child's collar with a lovely touch.

“That's why I suddenly wondered. Didn't I always tell you my story? ”

Unlike his generous attitude, Sage kept his mouth shut as he looked at the day.

His mother told him the truth about the First Prince and told him never to talk about him outside.

I felt guilty about breaking the taboo, but Sage couldn't help but ask.

‘Can a fake alchemy look like that? Are you even mad at the subject of soulless dolls? ’

I was confused.

In the rain, I remembered the eyes of the First Crown Prince who was staring at himself without an umbrella. It seemed grave, but I couldn't help but feel angry.

‘One, I'm not dead, I'm alive here.'

Judas, who used to say that, was definitely different from a doll without a soul.

Sage saw it for the first time and doubted her mother's words.

“Or should I, Mother? What if we knew something was wrong? ”

“ ……. ”

The Empress quietly stroked the cheek in her son's curiosity.

“Sage……. You mean this mother told a lie? ”

“Well, that's not what it means. ”

“Is he poor? ”

Poor Sage nods.

Born under a compassionate mother, Sage, who grew up loved by everyone she met, was a bright, vibrant, and self-centered child with a strong self-centered personality.

From his standards, the First Prince was also a disgraceful imperial disgrace, as his mother had said, but was forced to show sympathy to the other side.

Born by someone else's greed, I almost died being abused in my mother's hands.

The mother who tried to kill her children was self-conscious, and there is no one on his side in this world.

Sage sympathized with him as he lived the opposite life to himself.

“Besides, that day my brother..... ”

I felt like I was crying, and I stretched my shoulders without saying. The Empress' hand was placed on her shoulder, with her nails adorned with gold.

My mind is as weak as my small shoulder. The three princes, who were only nine years old, were still young enough to accomplish a great deal.

‘You're going to need a little more education. ’

After a brief silence, she responded with a bright smile.

“There must have been some misunderstanding that day. Sage has such a big heart that he can feel sorry for his angry opponent. He is indeed the son of a monarch. ”

Sage smiled with relief at her mother's compliments. The Empress, who gently curled the child's back, began to move slowly.

“Next time we meet, let's forgive him all his guilt and rudeness. So you're comfortable with that? ”

“Yes! Mother. ”

The 3rd Emperor replied swiftly, and the Empress smiled round and lightly, as if she were soaking in water.

In this imperial palace, there is no end as beautiful as a child's thought.

Forgiveness, harmony. If that were possible, either side would die and become a cheap corpse.

Meanwhile, there was a special guest in Lubach for a few days after the first royal group left.

He was an impressionist with a middle-aged personality, who, unlike him, was already in his late 60s.

People with disabilities often looked younger than their original age or lived longer than normal, so it wasn't for very odd periods.

He was invited by Lubach as a teacher and was awaiting a formal appointment.

Livech, who approached him with a winter spirit ruby on his head, leaned slightly and asked.

“…… Who? ”

“Hmm?”

Standing at the entrance to the Institute of Psychology, the man standing watching slowly bent his knee and squatted in front of Livech.

“Hey, kid. ”

Like a seven-year-old who hides his face, Livech takes a step back with a flinch.

“Oh, my name is Cortoban Yen. It's called a" call. "”

“…… Call? ”

“Yes, I'll be a teacher here soon. ”

A clear white hair peered through the light brown hair. Long, thin eyes and monocles in one eye highlighted the intellectual image.

Faced with the calm atmosphere of Cortoban, Livech slowly blinks.

“Similar.”

“Hmm?”

“With my senior brother. ”

It was a strange title, but the man laughed loudly, noticing that Rebech was a Lubach academy student.

“Haha! I see you have a similar friend. It's an honor to look like a young student.. ”

“Not your face. ”

“... hmm? ”

A seven-year-old girl had a pretty creepy corner.

“Feelings, energies? Something like that.”

“Ho.”

Cortoban touched a short-grown beard with a pat on his knee. He seemed to have a tremendous talent for spirituality for this little girl.

Only the Spirit of Winter Wind contracted with her was excellent. Feeling the cold energy hovering around him, he admired him a little.

“Then he's a spiritist, too. ”

Cortoban Yen, Dual Summoner who contracted with the finest Spirit 2 attribute in the natural world.

He was a disciple who volunteered to follow Igrette as a teacher when he hid his longevity. He was one of the most talented people in the development of the country.

I didn't recover all the rice from the last side as a private person. The past of Judas has been revealed, but the suspicious ship (..) seen by Friedna Spirits is resolved after a while.

(+) The world view without the original concept of rebirth is correct. Most "normal" humans don't do reincarnation. It's all related to the past, and it's not a very important device to deploy, but I'd like to add that there are readers who are curious. Heh)

The Imperial Palace episode will conclude in this chapter. I want to finish the heavy part and quickly send the kids back to Lubach. ◗ ◗

... actually I have a spasm... (?)
