The Marquis' Daughter Acts As A Pawn

- The king and the third prince die, and my king stands.

If I'm wrong, it's not Edward.

My king - that is, the royal family who will be the puppets of the Duke of Macmillan.

I don't care what you think, First Prince Douglas.

But does this man know?

"I didn't know His Majesty and His Highness were going to die...... Duke of McMillan, as a crime of disrespect, I don't think I can complain about being killed on this occasion right now"

In my words the Duke of Macmillan will not be spared.

"The plan is already in motion. You won't be stopped."

"It will be stopped."

It was Master Edward who broke the disturbing air.

Duke McMillan frowns at that confident word.

"... my brother would never kill my father and my brother"

"Ha, bullshit. The first prince hates the second prince, who is too brilliant in the belly of the righteous queen, the third prince with the same belly of the side queen but admired as the queen who supports the people. You think the only way to stand above you is to be king."

"I'm guessing you set me up to think so. Duke of McMillan."

Master Edward told me to throw up.

I can see you have anger emotions.

"What's wrong with that? Besides, even if the king and the third prince weren't killed, you wouldn't be able to crush my Duke of McMillan's house, would you? Marquis Lewis, as well as the royal family."

Is this why you have plenty of room?

The Duke of Macmillan family has been a nobleman since the founding of the Kingdom of Rolands.

It has been said that its power has declined in recent years, but now its impact is immeasurable.

Yes, even if I used Mailers and the Iris Chamber of Commerce to sharpen the power of the Duke McMillan family.

Crushing the Duke McMillan family would have a never insignificant impact on the Rolands.

Therefore, His Majesty the King will not destroy the house, even if the Marquis Lewis family tries to avenge the Duke McMillan family.

The Duke of McMillan also...... I guess he's left some sort of survival technique.

I would never let that happen!!

"... Marie"

In that word, the belly-hearted maid understands what I intend.

"Everything, I got it. We currently keep it in a safe place. The contents… were as the lady expected"

"Yes, thank you. Dear Edward, may I have a word?"

"What's up, Julianna?

"Documents relating to the Sabat of the Duke of Macmillan and certificates of illegal trade between nobles. And... the Marquis de Lewis has the paperwork to prove the deal between the Empire (...) and the Duke of McMillan."

Five years ago, I crushed an assassination guild.

The assassination guild shows neutrality and does not participate in any organization.

Therefore, neither was the royal family involved in the assassination guild.

But that assassination guild did what was considered contraindicated within the Rolands kingdom.

That is because it was requested by the Diaghilev Empire, a neighbor who became the founder of the Kingdom of Rolands and who has committed many invasions.

The assassination guild, one of the best in Roland's country, was immediately… crushed by the troops under my command.

And examining the requests the Assassination Guild undertook against the Diaghilev Empire, all of its assassinations were a disturbing aristocracy for the Duke of McMillan.

The Duke McMillan family may be connected to the Diaghilev Empire.

That was a thin thread.

But it was not exactly a permissible place in the Kingdom of Rolands, but also a hope that might crush the Duke McMillan family without question.

We looked into it with care.

However, all traces have been carefully erased and cannot be searched from the outside.

So I approached him as Cardia, and searched from within.

As a result, I learned that the Duke of McMillan could not trust his word of mouth and that he was a character who wanted to leave a contract.

When I went to the mansion of the Duke of McMillan family with the trust of the Duke of McMillan as Cardia, I finally found a place for this man to hide something important.

And then I let Marie, the former assassin, know and steal the information.

This is the trump card to revenge obtained by the Marquis Lewis family.

"Is that why...!

Ignoring the angry Duke of Macmillan, I bow my head to Master Edward.

"We dedicate all of this evidence to Mr. Edward"

Do you mind?

"Yes, you are the next king and you have given me the words that the Marquis Lewis wants. Whatever the consequences, the Duke of Macmillan will be judged by you… The Marquis of Lewis will obey that decision."

"... let's do our best"

I was relieved to exhale in a ho for what Master Edward promised me.

"I don't end up to this extent... everything... you get what you want... there's still a First Prince..."

To the bumpy and grunting Duke of Macmillan, I turn a frightened eye.

For this man, Mother Elizabeth is only a thing that satisfies her own greed, too.

It just so happens that I didn't like the fact that Mother Elizabeth didn't get it and was (in a political sense) tied to her father, who had been compared to something in her same age.

It will be seen from the fact that what this man saw and craved was an outward-looking Elizabeth mother.

Paranoid to power, ambition that would make the Rolands kingdom lean...... and obsession with your father and Elizabeth Mother.

Oh, really, this guy's not even busy.

But in a way, if you were a good man halfway through, the Marquis Lewis family wouldn't have been so obsessed with revenge.

I slowly walk out to the Duke of Macmillan.

On the way, the trick changed from graceful and perfect to weak and pathetic.

The surrounding atmosphere also turns into something calm and clear.

The most astonishing thing as my sudden change was the Duke of McMillan.

He opens his eyes, and gazes at me all the time that he cannot believe.

Standing in front of the Duke of McMillan, held down by Marie, he turns a smile full of charity, not Julianna (...).

"Long time no see, Master James"

The murmured voice is different from the cute as the little bird whimpers and the ringing voice of Julianna's bell.

"... is it Elizabeth...?

Duke McMillan muttered along with his stunned expression was the name of a dead man who could not be in the world.

"... Yes. Long time no see."

I spin the words of affirmation, painted with lies, with a troubled face.

This is my role… what I can only do.

- To the man who took away his beloved family, despair.
