I became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 100

Chapter 29 Double Trap (4)

“Your Highness Zion!”

Nobles who supported Zion gathered by Zion’s side.

They couldn’t help but feel pressured as they had been in the banquet hall without anyone to attend until a moment ago.

However, that was all resolved with the appearance of Zion.

In addition, the anxiety I felt due to the various negative rumors I heard these days was disappearing like melting snow.

‘Anyway, I never thought it would be fine. I guess the rumor was false.’

Deanna, who was looking at Zion from one side, lightly chewed her mouth.

She intentionally brought up negative rumors at the banquet, trying to discredit Shion and at the same time bring the initiative to her own hands.

But Zion changed everything just by appearing.

The timing was perfect, as if he was aiming for it.

‘And then… … .’

Deanna glances at the nobles gathering around Zion.

The number of people was much greater than she had guessed.

‘And it’s all just real money.’

When on earth did it attract so many people?

Among them, in addition to those who were brought in during the Enoch Incident, there were also nobles who fell in love with the person named Zion Agnes and went under her.

‘If it is revealed here that Sion is the owner of the Sword of Destruction… … .’

I didn’t even want to imagine what would happen after that.

“Hello, Your Highness Zion. My name is Altrio Rodrik of the Rodrik family. It’s nice to meet you… … .”

“This is Clarice Hamad. The sight of His Majesty at the funeral of His Majesty the Former Emperor was truly impressive… … .”

In addition, nobles who were not part of Zion’s power were also gathering near Zion.

The atmosphere emanating from Shion was still oppressing the surroundings to the point of suffocation, and the ominous feeling irritating the depths of their hearts was making them reluctant to approach, but they did not care.

No, I was more willing.

Because this was the ruler they wanted.

Emperor of the Agnes Empire.

A master of the world who can determine the fate of all mankind with a single word and who can twist the flow of the world with a single gesture.

So it had to be special.

That’s why I shouldn’t be like them.

He always had to reign as an absolute being, looking down on everything from afar.

Yes, like God.

So far, only those who meet all the conditions have been born in the Agnes family.

Therefore, the emperor’s last name did not change for hundreds of years.

at that time,

“Your Highness Zion, but do you have any intention of entering into a marriage contract?”

One of the nobles who approached Zion spoke in a subdued tone.

“I am telling you that since Your Majesty is now an adult, I think it would be okay to choose at least one person to be your spouse.”

Although the Princess of Barmel was still engaged to Prince Sion, rumors that she would break off the engagement had already spread throughout the capital.

The Barmel family was belatedly trying to stop it, but there were also rumors going around that Prince Sion had no intention of doing so.

That’s why I was able to speak out without hesitation.

At those words, the face of Gustav Barmel, the head of the Barmel family, slightly distorted, but no one paid any attention to it.

Along with that, people’s eyes naturally focused on Zion’s lips.

“No, since Zion will follow me and convert to the Church of Light, there are no such things as marriage… … .”

When Rubrios, who was listening next to me, spouted nonsense with a serious face,

“Well, there’s nothing you can’t do.”

Zion’s mouth opened.

When he was emperor in the original world, Sion did not marry, but he did not have any intention of not doing so.

There was just no one I liked.

“Oh oh!”

At those words, the eyes of the nobles in the banquet hall and the ladies who followed sparkled.

The nobles’ eyes lit up as they looked at Zion’s potential, but the women’s eyes shined as they looked at Zion’s face.

‘How can someone be that handsome?’

‘I’ve never seen such a white person.’

When I first came in, I didn’t pay attention to the strange pressure and ominous feeling, but as I continued to look, I started to notice its appearance.

White skin like jade and straight, long eyebrows.

From the blade-like bridge of the nose extending under the drowsy eyes to the slightly closed red lips.

That sight shook the hearts of the women who saw Zion for the first time today.

“Your Majesty, then perhaps my wife is…” … .”

“The women of my family have been famous for their beauty for generations… … .”

Proposals from nobles pouring in toward Zion.

It had to be that way.

Unlike other members of the royal family who already had one or at most several spouses or those appointed to them, Zion did not have a single one.

at that time,

“But you have to have the qualifications.”

A voice coming from Zion’s mouth.

“If you say qualifications… … .”

“Qualification to stand next to me.”

“… … ?”

The nobles’ eyes were filled with doubt at those words, but no more words came out of Sion’s mouth.

‘Qualification… … .’

But unlike those people, Priscilla, who was listening to the conversation, knew what that qualification meant.

Because I had already heard harsh criticism of him directly from Shion before.

‘Of course it wasn’t about marriage then.’

Still, she thought that the qualifications that Prince Shion spoke of back then and the qualifications he spoke of now would have similar meanings.

‘Excellent ability to be helpful to Prince Sion.’

Priscilla had a vague idea of ​​what Prince Sion was currently up against, so she knew very well how high the standard was.

Isn’t that why he can’t even get her now?

‘You have to try harder.’

Even if she couldn’t get married again, Priscilla wanted to stand by Sion’s side.

Since I realized the burden he was carrying alone, I wanted to help in any way possible.

When her eyes shine with determination,

“haha! “By the way, Shion, are you feeling okay?”

On one side, Utekan smiled happily and approached Zion.

“I heard that he is not feeling well these days and is not coming out of the palace.”

There was no trace of past resentment on the 4th prince’s expression as he asked that question.

There is only concern about Zion.

“That is absurd.”

Shion opened his mouth, looking at that abominable face with drowsy eyes.

“Just as if you were a demon.”

“… … !”

The atmosphere in the banquet hall quickly freezes at Zion’s words.

Words related to the devil were almost taboo in the empire.

However, Prince Sion was referring to the imperial family as demons.

No matter how much it is a joke, these words and actions are excessive.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! “It’s a funny joke.”

Utekan looked at Sion for a moment and laughed loudly, befitting his boisterous image.

But deep in his eyes, a cold light flickered.

‘Surely you know?’

Since Azela had already been sent, it would have been assumed that Utekan himself was related to the demons, but there was no evidence to suggest that he was the demons themselves.

Of course, it could have been just a comment.

However, considering what Sion Agnes has shown so far, there was a possibility that she already knew.

“I’m just kidding… … .”

It was when Sion smiled meaningfully while looking at Utekan.

“Uh, huh?”

One of the nobles nearby pointed upward and let out a confused voice.

People who looked up saw the chandelier hanging in the center of the banquet hall’s ceiling shaking as if it were going to fall.

“I… … !”

Before the other people who saw the scene could even hear a voice come out of their mouths, they shouted!

The chandelier’s string completely broke and fell down.

And underneath that,

“Your Highness Zion!”

There was Zion.

“majesty! You should avoid… … !”

Zion stands still in place despite people’s cries.

Finally, when the chandelier was about to hit Shion’s head, Kwaang!

The chandelier was shattered by something fired from the side.

Pieces breaking into pieces and flying out in all directions.

And before I knew it, there was a hand where the broken chandelier was.

“Are you okay, Your Highness Shion?”

Soon, Alstein Ascalon, the owner of the hand, asked Zion in a calm voice.

“Thanks to.”

Even though a big accident almost happened, Shion still looked at him with calm eyes and answered.

“… … Fortunately, the.”

With those words, Alstein lowered his head with a strange glow on his face.

“Zion! Are you okay?”

“majesty! “Are you hurt anywhere?”

“How on earth do you manage the banquet hall! “Isn’t your Majesty almost going to be in trouble?”

Only then did other royal family members and nobles also belatedly start making a fuss by Sion’s side.

In addition, knights and servants came running from afar.

In front of Zion, which is becoming so noisy,

‘It is certainly… … Are you sure!’

Only Utekan had burning eyes.

The joy welling up from deep inside his eyes!

To be honest, when Sion Agnes first appeared at the banquet hall, he thought his prediction was wrong.

The appearance and atmosphere of Sion Agnes were better than before, but not worse.

‘But it was all a bluff.’

Utekan knew it the moment the chandelier fell.

Only those closest could see it.

Sion Agnes was clearly trying to react to the falling chandelier.

‘But I couldn’t.’

He just slightly staggered, as if he had lost his balance.

Utekan thought it was because Zion’s physical condition was not normal.

No, it wasn’t that bad, it was a very serious condition.

‘I can’t believe you can’t even react to a chandelier falling.’

The joy and anticipation that had been spreading deep in his eyes seemed to show outward, so Utekan quietly lowered his head and smiled.

But that’s why Utecan couldn’t be seen.

The chandelier’s string had been cut by something sharp, and Shion was looking at him with cold eyes.

* * *

“Are you sure.”

This was the first thing Utekan said when he met the woman in the habit and Hanosral after the grand banquet.

“All confirmation was completed at the banquet. Now all I have to do is kill him.”

“Good.”

At those words, the woman smiled and opened her mouth.

“Sion Agnes probably won’t come out of Chimseong Palace for a while. To kill a guy like that… … .”

“I guess I should go directly to Chimseong Palace.”

Hanosral responded to the woman’s words in an emotionless tone.

“Let’s do something inside the imperial castle? “I think that would be a bit dangerous.”

Of course, Chimseong Palace was attacked a few times in the past, but the cases back then and now were completely different.

Unlike in the past when she was just a captive prince, the current Sion Agnes was one of the candidates for the next emperor in name and reality.

Therefore, the interest garnered will also be enormous.

“If we make a mistake, not only will we fail, but our true identities may be discovered.”

“No, you still have to do it. “If it’s not now, an opportunity like this will never come again.”

At the woman’s words, Utekan shook his head with hard eyes and opened his mouth.

Utekan was also fully aware that it was dangerous.

But other feelings were bigger than that.

unrest.

Anxiety that if not for this opportunity, he would never be able to kill Sion Agnes again.

That anxiety was creeping up in his mind.

“… … Yeah, I get it. Then, you must succeed completely the first time without failure.”

“Don’t worry about that. “I will come forward myself.”

Hanosral spoke to him in the same indifferent tone.

but,

“… … !”

The reactions of the other Five Demon Spirits who heard it were completely different.

Their eyes widen as if they had not expected this at all.

“What are you talking about? Hanosral.”

“I was planning to do it this way from the beginning. The Precious Blood stolen by Zion Agnes. “I have to get it back somehow.”

Hanosral looked at them and spoke calmly.

Angel’s blood, a key ingredient to implement the ‘Falling Heaven’ plan.

Its value could possibly exceed that of Oh Ma-ryeong himself.

“Besides, is there a surer way to make this a complete success than for me, one of the Five Demon Spirits, to step forward?”

“… … “That might be right.”

Utekan looked at Hanosral for a moment and then opened his mouth heavily.

Until now, Zion Agnes has always exceeded their expectations.

In that case, the most obvious thing to do was to invest overwhelming power to the point where even all the variables could be weighed down.

No matter how much Sion Agnes is, she will not be able to reach the power of Oh Ma-ryeong.

Especially now that he has been fatally injured.

The woman who had been shaking her head as if she did not understand him opened her mouth.

“… … “The ‘heavens’ within the imperial castle can move.”

One of the reasons why they haven’t been able to move carelessly until now.

“I’ll try to stop that somehow.”

Hanosral slowly nodded at Utekan’s words.

Then he spoke to the woman who still had a reluctant expression on her face.

“do not worry. Ending the life of the mortally wounded Sion Agnes would be easier than flipping the palm of your hand.”

In fact, there was one more reason for him to come forward like this, aside from the two just mentioned.

It was to kill Sion Agnes with his own hands.

Cesarus and the Sain Army.

And the most important plan was to steal the Precious Blood.

Hanosral’s anger at losing everything was beyond imagination.

‘After I kill you, I will tear your soul to shreds.’

The eyes of the King of Signs are so shiny that an ordinary person would lose their minds the moment they see them.

There was no thought in his mind that he would fail.
