48 One Guy
#
There was silence in the audience room.
It was natural.
Would you like to try it now?
It was because Duke Garcia’s expression looking at Duke Lavaltor was unusual.
And the nobles who read the anger trembled and looked at Lavaltor.
No matter how, Garcia chooses the 7 Princes as guardians.
‘Isn’t it morally wrong?’
‘you’re right. It was Duke Garcia who brought the 7th Prince Jeho.’
‘Of course you’re a farmer. Your Majesty’s interest in the Seven Princes is a duke’s compliment.’
‘you’re right.’
So the nobles tried to say a word to the Duke of Lavaltor, but they thought he was going to die soon.
I had no choice but to do so.
‘No, it doesn’t look like it’s nonsense?’
Lavaltor’s eyes were serious. And did you read the momentum?
“I didn’t know that La Valtor was witty, so I thought he had no talent for jokes, but I guess he had that kind of talent, right?”
The nobles trembled at Duke Garcia’s sharp voice.
But Lavaltor took it lightly.
“It seems that the future of the country is really dark for the duke, who is called the pillar of the royal palace, who can’t tell the difference between the joke and the truth. your majesty.”
“!”
Is that guy real?
The nobles who saw Garcia’s eyes were terrified.
Not surprisingly, with Duke Garcia’s provocation, the two dukes’ eyes met fiercely.
Because of only one prince!
The nobles were nervous at the sight of the two facing each other again.
‘Is it possible that the two dukes are together?’
‘Isn’t this the first time that Adria of intellect has disappeared like that?’The two, who have been disabled since their youth, can never mix water and oil.
So the nobility was worried.
‘If Lavaltor’s excellent Knights and 1st Knights move, no matter how much Duke Garcia…’
‘But the Duke of Garcia has soldiers who are not only wealthy, but also have money. If you mobilize steel infantry and heavy cavalry…’
The eyes of the nobility turned to Ieon with a subtle hint.
But at the same time, he couldn’t help but be amazed.
‘Are you smiling?’
‘Are you enjoying the situation right now?’
It looked like he was enjoying the tightrope between the two dukes.
King Elaine was also watching them with interest.
But that was the moment.
“This is nonsense! Even so, you are handing over Lavaltor and my fiancée!”
It was the 2nd Prince who raised his voice.
He was genuinely angry.
‘It’s like killing only a few maids. This is nonsense.’
His power was still strong. Although he was a rival, he even had a strong comrade named the 1st Princess.
It made no sense to collapse like this.
And at the words of the 2nd Prince, the nobles of his faction immediately stepped forward as if it was an opportunity.
“you’re right. your majesty. It is against the rules to change the fiancee in this way, regardless of age or time.”
“It is. Even though the 2nd Prince Ha-ha made a mistake, there is no way to do this in a situation where he is still only heartbroken…”
“stop. The judgment is yours.”
The nobles froze in the eyes of the king.
At the same time, the king looked at Laval Thor and tried to say whether he was okay with that.
But then someone laughed.
“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, are you going to proceed without even asking the person’s opinion?”
As Ion stepped forward, the second prince glared at him with bloodshot eyes.
“Now is not the place for your bastard.”
“I do not know. Are you talking about my engagement?”
At Ian’s words, the atmosphere began to change rapidly.
This was especially the case with King Elaine. He raised the corners of his lips with a funny expression.
“So you are refusing the marriage?”
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”
“You keep quiet. I don’t want to hear from a guy who lost his important hand because he didn’t have enough arms.”
“··········!!”
Ian replied with a smile.
“It’s not a rejection, but I don’t even want to get engaged like this. It’s the worst for a marriage partner.”
King Elaine narrowed his brow.
To be honest, having Lavaltor as a craftsman was a huge benefit. But how can I give up on it so easily?
Worst for a marriage partner?
It was only natural that the impression of Duke Lavaltor became hardened.
“Lowering. Does that mean that our daughter lacks something?”
As if he had felt insulted, the duke’s anger was fully felt. The piosen also hardened. At the most, I could feel the eyes of Lavaltor, who had a good heart, to get cold.
But Ian smiled brightly.
“Don’t get me wrong. That’s not what it means.”
“Then tell me what you mean.”
Instead of answering, Ian glanced at Duke Garcia.
Then Duke Garcia smiled saying that it would be so. It also meant that they couldn’t leave them.
However.
“I’m really sorry for the Duke, but I haven’t had his coming-of-age ceremony yet. Of course he can’t get married, can he?”
Garcia glared at Ion, and Lavaltor looked at him as if he couldn’t understand.
“It’s a coming-of-age ceremony, only the engagement is decided in advance, and the engagement is after the coming-of-age ceremony…”
“I mean, it can’t be.”
“?”
Ian smiled.“The war for the throne is not over yet. What would you do if you married me, and I even die? I don’t think you’ll be looking for another fiancée by then, right?”
“!”
“I think a partner who may die at any moment is the worst marriage partner.”
The bloody Duke of Laval Thor seemed to have forgotten his words for a moment.
Were you referring to yourself and not my daughter?
A look that didn’t know that Ian was thinking like that.
But it wasn’t wrong.
‘I haven’t played a rank match yet.’
A rank-and-file battle is a kind of battle for position to give an advantage to the competition.
In addition, it had the character of an oriental game where you could stake your opponent’s possessions, troops, things, status, and stakes to steal them.
In other words, unlike the main competition, all kinds of cruel tricks can come and go.
‘It’s true that you never know when you will die.’
As if reading the peacock’s expression, Ion raised an eyebrow.
“Of course, the Duke of Lavaltor would certainly be able to protect me. However, I am Kaistein! I have no intention of avoiding a challenge.”
In a previous life, the 2nd Princess held a swordsmanship competition instead of a rank battle.
Of course, Ion was hiding in the Duchy, let alone a swordsmanship competition. At worst, the Duke of Garcia was thinking of abandoning Ian.
Anyway, it’s different now. And I didn’t say it on purpose, but in the current situation, if there was a fiancée, there was a possibility that I would rather get caught.
“So, I have a request for you, Your Majesty.”
“What do you mean by request?”
“I understand that this is a reckless request, but I ask that the fiancée’s choice be deferred until after the rank-and-file battle. If I survive, then the princess will accept me. Then I hope you choose her as your fiancée.”
“!”
In an instant, the nobles of the audience began to murmur.
Some nobles nodded and whispered inaudible.
“I was worried because I didn’t come from a good background, but I think about it fairly broadly.”
“Certainly… you could die in a rank fight before the competition.”
“Considering the honor of the princess, maybe that’s right. How many times have we not broken up?”
In fact, the Duke of Laval Thor bit his mouth. Because he didn’t do any harm to him.
Well, that doesn’t mean there’s no change in the thought of becoming a son-in-law.
But even though Ian rejected Lavaltor, Garcia’s eyes were still bitter.
‘That poor little boy.’
I had no choice but to do so.
It was because he knew well what Ian had done now.
‘Isn’t that saying that we’re going to get all the support from the two of us until we win the rank-and-file battle?’
Judging from Ian’s reaction in the first place, he was not interested in the engagement.
‘In other words, it means that when the time comes, you can refuse to marry the Duke of Lavaltor.’
And some aristocrats who did not know the situation whispered intriguingly.
“Who is going to provide more support? Garcia, right?”
“Are you ignoring Lavaltor now? Maybe even the 7th Prince will change his mind.”
At those words, Duke Garcia’s eyes twinkled as if he was not the same.
That was then.
“good night. Then don’t let it do that. And confiscate the palace of the second prince. Also, in the future, the 2nd prince will not be able to act as heir to the 1st place of the throne. ”
The second prince was terribly surprised.
“Your Majesty, your Majesty! How can you believe only what they say…!”
“You seem to be misunderstanding something.”
“!”
“Isn’t it all for your own self-interest? I should have kept it well so I didn’t lose it. But, don’t take away my last right to you. that’s me to youThis will be your last chance.”
In other words, the king took responsibility for himself, but if he wanted to get it back, he had to take back everything and take revenge.
The second prince, who could not understand the meaning of the word, clenched his teeth and glared at Ion.
‘Hey, this guy is driving me to the end.’
But the situation is already over.
It was because the king had made a declaration in front of all the nobles.
“I will break the marriage between the 2nd Prince and the Duke of Lavaltor. At the same time, the person who will become the princess’s fiancée will be announced after the rank-and-file battle is over. And take the second prince right away to investigate.”
“Sun of Kaistein. Glory!”
At that, Ian bowed with a bright smile.
And that moment.
‘It won’t go your way. Who was it that you found out in the first place?’
‘In the end, the 7th Prince will have no choice but to hold my hand.’
Duke Garcia and Duke Lavaltor were glaring at each other.
*
Ion left the main palace with a refreshing smile.
Karan approached him next to him.
“Lowering. What happened inside?”
“Did nothing happen?”
Ian ignored Karan and headed forward.
Then Karan followed him with a look of perplexity.
“It’s no big deal. The Duke of Lavaltor . . .”
Ian stopped at his seat.
“Are you worried that you might be isolated from Duke Garcia?”
“Isn’t it obvious? I have always been the son of the Duke of Garcia…”
“It’s strange. I thought Confucius Karan had no affection for his family.”
“!”
Ian knew.
In the past, Karan, who had gained
And according to the person who was close to him, it was clear from the beginning that he had no heart for the duke.
‘I don’t know why. That’s why I want to make you more mine.’
He was called the adventure king in a previous life, but now he was called a genius of administration. It will definitely be of help to him in the future as well as in the rank-and-file battles.
“Anyway, that’s when you think about it. I haven’t even won a championship yet.”
But Karan’s face hardened seriously.
‘Well, I can guess what you’re thinking about.’
And perhaps his father would not cut off his support for the prince.
No, as the opponent was Lavaltor, I didn’t know if it would catch fire. However, considering that they even talked about the marriage, Lavaltor doesn’t seem likely to give up on Ion…
Wouldn’t it be an unprecedented war that only sheds blood?
It was at that time that Karan, who was finally creeped out, was going to say something to Ian.
“You damn kid!”
The second prince, who was being led by the soldiers, approached Ion.
And I call it royalty. The soldiers were not treated badly, but the second prince tried to kill Ian with bloodshot eyes. It must be the resentment that took Lavaltor.
“Enjoy a brief victory. Soon I will…”
“You say that you win and win in rank battles with other people. No, are you going to cowardly send an assassin from behind?”
“What?”
The 2 prince’s face was distorted.
That’s right, the assassin sent to Garcia a while ago. It was because he remembered the voice of the person he talked to through the crystal ball when he died.
So the second prince laughed bitterly.
“Is that your guy?”
“I don’t know what you mean. But since you are so pitiful, I will tell you one thing.”
“This guy…”
“How would I have known your secret secret?”
“What?”
The second prince’s eyes widened as if they had been stabbed for a moment. He hadn’t even thought about it until now, but he was actually puzzled.
If you see Lavaltor moving, thisEon’s tactics are clear, but Ian, who came here a while ago, couldn’t have known such a thing.
Ian said with an evil smile.
“The 1st princess sister told me. There’s your brother’s secret.”
The 2nd prince laughed as if it was absurd.
“Where did this lie from a while ago…”
“Thanks to my sister, I was able to have the Duke of Lavaltor on my side, so I am just grateful to my ugly brother.”
“···!”
The second prince was about to ask what he had to say, but Lee Eon said it right away.
“What are you doing, without taking care of your brother?”
The 2nd Prince was taken away by the soldiers and Fiosen. He was to blame that he could no longer delay the royal title.
Seeing that, Ian smiled.
‘Enjoy yourselves for a little while. That breath lasts only for a while.’
But it wouldn’t be easy either.
Now, Princess 1 and Prince 2, who were irreplaceable partners, are trying to kill each other. No, they would not trust each other and would stick knives to each other’s backs.
‘It’s been like that before. In the end, they betrayed each other as a shallow alliance. I just shortened the time.’
Ian smiled and turned around.
*
Arriving at the Crystal Palace, Ion smiled unexpectedly on his face.
“You must have been very busy, didn’t you? Sir Nathan?”
“ha ha ha. How did it happen? Ugh. Why are so many people looking for me?”
It was Nathan who had gone out to the Crystal Palace.
But when Ian saw him, he immediately smiled. He was to blame for what he had heard from Gallon.
[I think I chose that one.]
A look that doesn’t look like Galon.
But Ian did not express his feelings.
“But then I heard it. The factions that supported the 2nd Prince already want to find the Prince.”
“okay? Then you’ll be busy. So, as a swordsmanship master, you can expect it, right?”
“of course. I also got something for the prince.”
“That’s it.”
It was when Karan was staring suspiciously at Nathan.
smart
“Lowering. They have come.”
“!”
New people have appeared in the Crystal Palace.
“The prince has a lot to teach, so he won’t have time. I will start right away.”
“Don’t worry. We will definitely teach you.”
They are all teachers sent by nobles to teach Ion.
They were people trying to teach Ion with arrogant expressions.
