100 pieces. The prince enters
#
[Elaine Kaistein]
Ian couldn’t even breathe properly.
‘king.’
He was the one whom he could only see from a distance in his previous life. And he’s a letter from his father that he’s never seen before. It was natural for him to breathe.
However, he was more interested in the things that came with him than the letters from his father.
“This···”
two things.
It was a simple paddle. But there was no way Ian didn’t know about these things.
[Royal Seal]
[Seal of Trials]
Seeing the object, Ion couldn’t help but tremble.
The servant, who could not understand Lee Eon’s feelings, lowered his head and explained.
“This is the royal seal.”
What he was pointing to was a hand that looked like a lion roaring.
“It is something that any royal noble can have, and when you receive it, it is already recognized as a member of the royal family.”
“Even if I can’t go to the proof ceremony?”
“of course. proofA ceremony is a ceremonial event that proves that you are royalty. You have already been recognized as a member of the royal family when you receive the royal seal.”
In fact, the ceremony was nothing special.
It was just that the king and Ian dripped their own blood and made sure they had the same blood.
And this
Of course, up to that point, Ian would not have been so surprised.
‘This seal is not an ordinary royal seal.’
Common royal seals were gold-plated.
But it was made of a more precious material than that.
just as expected.
“This is the seal of Kaistein, which is bestowed by His Majesty himself, and has the same effect as His Majesty’s decrees. It takes precedence over any other royal seal.”
This was a seal with the meaning of ‘the king’s agent’.
It was also proof that he was under the protection of the king anytime and anywhere.
in short .
[If you meet the person holding the tile, treat everyone like the king of Kai Stein]
Like the inscription on the seal, it was the highest rank among the seals of the royal family.
This hand was a valuable item that only one or two people recognized by the king in the past could receive.
But you give yourself such a thing?
But it wasn’t the only thing that surprised me.
‘The other is obviously…’
At Ian’s gaze, the chief of the chaplain, who looked at him with strange eyes, continued his words.
“The remaining ones are called
It was.
The other is the key to the treasure room in the royal family.
However, the word was a treasure trove, and the name of the key was not
There was a monster gatekeeper inside, so it was a dangerous place to survive, let alone bring anything.
However, it was an ordeal passed down to the royal family from generation to generation to pick out the treasure and bring it out.
‘Your treatment will vary depending on what kind of items you bring.’
What they brought with them led to an assessment of that person’s worth.
And that ordeal is a rite of passage that any member of the royal family must do at least once.
However, in the past, Ion did not even receive this
I must say that there was no chance at all.
It could have been more because he was judged that he had no talent for swordsmanship in the Swordsmanship Continent.
‘Thanks, I was greatly ignored. He’s a prince who hasn’t been given any trials.’
He didn’t know how much effort he had to put in to change that perception.
Anyway,
When looking at
“The ordeal is known to all the people, and to some extent, it must be a dangerous place.”
Any member of the royal family can take on the challenge, but the number of dead people alone cannot be counted with both hands.
And the chief servant shed a strange laugh as if that was the main point from now on.
“Your Majesty has asked the 7th Prince to give you a choice.”
Ian’s eyes changed.
“So, which one would you choose?”
“That’s right. If you choose
At that, Ian smiled as if trembling inside.
‘In the past, there was no such option.’
In the first place, wasn’t his proof ceremony abbreviated by the high priest in the cathedral, not the royal palace?
And after thinking for a moment, Ian reached out his hand.
‘Anyway, I have only one choice.’
Ian remembers his pastShaking it off, he grabbed the object with his hand.
snap
The chief valet widened his eyes as if in surprise at the item he had chosen.
It’s a face that I didn’t know I was going to choose it.
“Are you sure you want to be with that?”
“You can only choose one, isn’t it? So take the other.”
The chaplain was very upset, but he soon spoke politely.
“Now then, check the letter from His Majesty.”
Then, instead of opening the letter, Ion glanced at the chief servant. At that glance, the chieftain smiled.
“Lowering? If it’s okay with you, can I read it for you?”
It was then that Ian burst into laughter.
“Read me?”
With a cold voice, Ion’s eyes turned towards the servant.
“Me, low?”
However, Ian glared at the servant with gleaming golden eyes.
Well, he seemed to know why he was doing that. Perhaps the Duke of Garcia had urgently sent him an education, but writing to the serfs. It must be said that court language, which is said to be the most difficult of all texts, cannot be easy.
But Ian was not deceived.
“Your back seems to be curious about the contents of the letter.”
“···Yes?! Back, back!”
The servant was greatly embarrassed, but Ian raised the corner of his mouth.
‘This guy is one of the 12 servants of the royal palace.’
Especially his face was familiar.
Somehow, from the moment he entered the room, his actions were a little irritating. Whether he secretly instigates a certain seal, or whether he sees himself with a strange gaze.
This guy was the only one who followed the 1st princess. The princess must have given him an order.
But this time it went too far.
‘I must have been curious about the king’s intentions, at least.’
It was not enough that the proof ceremony was changed to the royal palace, because the king called himself to the royal palace.
So he must have seized the opportunity by being ordered to know the contents of the box and the letter as well.
But there was no rush.
Ion raised his voice fiercely towards the chieftain.
“Do you dare to deceive me because it is not enough to peek at Your Majesty’s letter?”
“That… not that.”
“I will remember your name and face clearly. So get it off right now! Confess to Your Majesty before I cut off your throat!”
“Sin. I’m sorry.”
The chieftain fled.
that would be it too. For the chief servant, the royal rule was strict. But he just broke the previous law. The 7 Princes, whom I looked down on, had a weakness.
If the chief chaplain finds out about it, it’s a big deal that will immediately result in disqualification.
However, there was only one way for the chief servant to retire, who knew the royal secret.
only death
Of course, Ian didn’t just send it.
‘I know exactly who you are.’
I was planning to hold on to this weakness and press the head-to-head. And it was also good for pressuring opponents. In the end, Ian broke the seal of the letter only after everyone left.
In fact, there was nothing in the letter at all.
[I am looking forward to the proof ceremony]
There were no warm words about the bastard Ion, whom he met for the first time. A single sentence and the king’s crest engraved in big letters.
Ian lifted the seal in front of him.
“I will live up to your expectations.”
He was going to show his father, who had only given him a cold glance, something very surprising.
But that was then.
Oooh!
The pendant Ian was wearing. Isn’t it the light that the 3 prince handed over?
It wasn’t just the pendant that was ringing.
Uh!
The

Inside the dark room of the royal palace.
A certain In-young hurriedly looked around. and asked the approaching old man.
“How was he?”
Then the old man approached and shook his head.
“You don’t have to worryAll. My hand has already been written.”
“how?”
“For that incense candle . . .”
At the word “hyangcho,” Inyeong narrowed her brow.
The incense candle the old man speaks of is probably the thing in Ian’s room.
And it was poison.
It is poison that has been secretly airlifted from other countries, and even the coroners of the royal palace cannot detect it.
‘Well, speaking of that scented candle, it wouldn’t be a poison that would die right away.’
Toxic is all that makes you tired, loses concentration, and makes your personality ferocious.
It was just that I thought I was getting sick.
So Inyoung was not worthy of it.
“It’s good that the scented candles cause problems with your personality, but wouldn’t that be enough?”
“Of course, the effect is not all there is to it.”
The old man gave an evil smile.
“More than anything else, the real effect is something else. If you inhale even the slightest bit of that incense without your knowledge.”
“Did you drink?”
“I am under a curse. A curse that takes away the talent of swordsmanship.”
“!”
That’s why the poison was so terrifying.
“Of course, it doesn’t work well for adults…”
The younger he was, the more fatal.
It will cut off the buds of talent altogether.
Of course, other royal families will never work with the help of their maternal family from a young age.
“The 7th Prince, who has no one, will lose his swordsmanship without knowing it.”
“Isn’t there Duke Garcia? He must have come up with a solution.”
“Without a special antidote, there is no way to defend it.”
And the antidote was hard to find on this continent.
“The sword’s talent will gradually disappear. You will not be able to carry any weapons. As we age, detoxification, let alone cure, becomes impossible.”
Any good guy was useless.
Once you are cursed, it will slowly encroach on your body.
In the end, In-young, who heard that, burst into laughter.
“My name is Kai Stein, but there is nothing wrong. I’m sure he’ll be over now.”
“That’s right. Curse is not poison. Nothing will be found. They will respond right from the moment of the proof.”
“It’s you too. Trustworthy. Then you can rest assured of the proof.”
they laughed

So a few days passed. The day of the ceremony was bright.
Numerous nobles had already gathered at the royal proof ceremony. Everyone was looking forward to the meal.
Of course, it wasn’t with good intentions.
“Is it Duke Garcia who found the thousand… no, the seven princes?”
“When I heard the story, I was young. Being from a humble background, he is naked and doesn’t even know any manners. I’m lucky if I don’t tremble at the proof ceremony.”
“Actually, if it wasn’t for Duke Garcia, wouldn’t it be low blood?”
“But a prince like that has a proof ceremony in the royal palace, right?”
“!!”
Everyone flinched at someone’s words.
It must be the case that it was none other than the king who moved the proof ceremony of the 7th Prince to the royal palace. Still, everyone was confused by the sudden whim of the king.
It was because he did not know how the future succession structure would change depending on his support.
It was also natural that the eyes of the nobility could not be cleared.
“Yeah, you have to say that I’m a stinky little kid.”
“really?”
“You have to see for yourself, but you can’t deceive your origin. The skin will be darkened, and the appearance will not be very noticeable.”
“And, although your Majesty has prepared this place, it must be said that this place is also a test site. did you hear Your Majesty has made an alternative choice…”
But they soon stopped talking. It was because the Duke of Garcia and his three sons entered.
and how long has it been
“The new star of Kaistein. Prince Ian, the 7th Prince, will enter.”
With the voice, the heads of all the nobles returned to the entrance.
allI was going to laugh at the fact that Ieon’s dirt had not come off.
By the way.
“!”
Ian’s appearance surprised them. It’s not as scruffy as they thought it would be either.
“Oh, no, wait…?”
The whole proof hall was in a great commotion.
The problem was who Lee Eon entered with. Even the peacock was startled.
It was because there was someone beside him that I never imagined.
The end
