I Became the Youngest Prince in the Novel Chapter 109

I became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 109

Chapter 31 Ascalonga (4)

“What is the matter, Your Majesty?”

Groud Ozrima asked, looking at the first prince who was frowning in front of him as if he was thinking about something.

After the Ozrima family decided to side with Rubrios, Groud often spent time with the first prince like this.

Of course, Rubrios was also very happy because one of the Five Great Families was coming under his wing.

“Something has been bothering me lately.”

After saying those words, the 1st prince closed his mouth again.

Groud knew what that silence meant.

Rubrios still doesn’t completely trust him and the Ozrima family, so he may be deciding whether he can tell them what’s going to get in the way.

How much time has passed like that?

“Do you think that someone who cannot feel God’s hand can serve God?”

A question came out of Rubrios’ mouth.

“If you say the hand of God, do you mean divine power?”

“No, it’s different from that. “It literally speaks of the hand of God.”

“… … “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Groud shook his head and answered.

Once in a while, the first prince would say things like this that he couldn’t understand.

You can see why the nickname ‘Prince Fanatic’ was given.

“I saw such a person in the imperial castle not long ago.”

Rubrios continued speaking, paying no heed to Groud’s words.

“He was a priest of the branch of the Church of Light that exists within the Imperial Castle. When I first saw it, it was heading towards Chimseong Palace. “The night it happened.”

“If that’s the case… … “Are you talking about the light rising above Chimseong Palace that lit up the sky of Hwangseong?”

“Yes.”

The answer sparked interest in Groud’s eyes for the first time.

They thought that the priest the 1st Prince mentioned might be related to what happened at Chimseong Palace.

The light at Chimseong Palace that night was a mystery to him as well, and it was also something he was very interested in finding out.

“I was alone in the garden that night and other things were strange in many ways, so I went and talked to him. “He was embarrassed.”

“Do you think, Your Highness, that the priest has something to do with the affairs of Chimseong Palace?”

“To find out, I pretended to go to Chimseong Palace and secretly followed the priest. And then I saw an unexpected sight.”

“If it’s an unexpected sight… … .”

“The priest entered Jaseong Palace.”

“… … !”

Groud’s face hardened at Rubrios’ words.

Utekan do not believe in the God of Light.

No, we do not serve God itself.

A priest of light enters the palace where Utekan resides?

Yes, I could have made a hundred concessions and the 4th prince suddenly decided to believe in the God of Light.

‘But the priest who was heading to Chimseong Palace alone on a bright night suddenly turned around and went to the palace of another royal family after meeting the first prince?’

And at the palace of the 4th prince, Utekan, who is most opposed to Prince Sion these days?

It may have been a coincidence, but it is very rare for so many coincidences to happen at once.

“… … “Let’s find out about the priest and the 4th prince.”

“Please.”

At Groud’s words, the 1st Prince nodded with cold eyes.

* * *

Shion stopped walking as a voice suddenly rang in his head.

“Your Highness Zion… … ?”

Rohanna and the others stop walking and look at Zion with questioning eyes.

Shion, who was thinking about something for a moment without answering that question, started walking towards Ban.

“Your Highness, you must not go that way!”

Rohanna shouted urgently at that sudden action.

“It is a forbidden place and only the head of Ascalonga can enter!”

The ban was not controlled at the family level to prevent others from entering.

In fact, only ‘head of household’ could be included in that ban.

Except for the head of the Ascalon family, anyone who dared to go near the ban was blocked by an unknown force or sometimes even cursed.

People assumed that it was probably due to some ‘existence’ within the ban, but the only people who really knew about it were past family heads.

“know.”

However, Zion ignores the cries and approaches the black tower.

Soon, the new form of Zion stopped right in front of the ban,

“Your Majesty, danger… … !”

It was the moment when Rohanna, who hurriedly followed, stretched out her hand towards Zion to at least forcibly stop him.

Paaaa!!

Bright light began to burst out from beneath the spot where Zion was standing.

The light spreads out in all directions in an instant and covers Zion’s entire body.

“W-what!”

A voice mixed with confusion and astonishment came out of Rohanna’s mouth as she stopped even approaching the scene she was seeing for the first time in her life.

Meanwhile, the light gets brighter and brighter.

The moment people in the nearby building came out to see what had happened, wow!

The light covering their vision disappeared in an instant.

“Your Highness Zion!”

At the same time, Rohanna looks at the place where Zion was and shouts.

But no one was there anymore.

* * *

‘Is this inside the tower?’

Shion thought as he looked at his surroundings, where there was nothing but pitch black darkness.

From the first time the voice rang in his head, Shion knew that the owner of the voice was a being within this ban.

Therefore, he immediately walked towards Geumjin, and as if he had been waiting, the owner of Geumjin let Sion inside.

at that time,

-… … what? You are not a warrior.

Yes’ voice rang in Shion’s head once again.

Along with that, an intense gaze can be felt from one side.

As Zion turned his head towards that gaze, a pair of eyes burning red in the darkness appeared.

The pupils, which appeared to be about the size of an adult male, were slit vertically like those of a reptile.

And the long neck below it and the body so huge that it fills the entire tower.

It was so intimidating that anyone who saw it for the first time would faint, but Shion’s eyes, who already knew his identity, did not change at all.

‘Black Dragon Calonics.’

The evil dragon in the legend of the Ascalon family was the black dragon.

Although he is said to be dead in legend, he was actually a being who made some kind of contract with the first head of Ascalon and stayed within the ban.

-It smelled similar to the hero I saw before, so I thought it was the hero of this generation and called him… … I guess I was mistaken.

“The smell of a hero? “What is that?”

Shion, who heard Kalonis’ muttering, immediately asked.

From the beginning, Shion came here to find out why he was called a hero.

-Ho… … .

The black dragon’s eyes took on a strange glow.

Even though it was clearly his first time seeing him, he wasn’t shocked or embarrassed, and didn’t even ask about his identity.

He just looks straight into his eyes with drowsy eyes.

The black dragon, who was slightly interested in the sight, answered Shion’s question obediently.

-Every being has its own destiny. And those fates all have a unique smell. I can smell that.

“So does that mean my fate is similar to that of the Sentai hero?”

-I thought it was like that when I took charge of it earlier. But when I saw it right in front of my eyes, it wasn’t like that. It’s my first time experiencing something like this, so I’m a little embarrassed.

Throughout countless years of living, Kalonis has never once mistaken the scent of fate.

Is there something wrong with my senses?

‘They say our fates are similar… … .’

Kalonis said it was an illusion, but Sion thought it might be right.

Didn’t the God of Light already give his oracle along with the warrior?

Even though it was only a name.

Perhaps this too is a clue to the reason why I exist in this world.

Gradually, an outline was becoming clearer.

“Then why did you try to call the hero?”

Shion gave up his thoughts and asked the black dragon again.

-It is for the hero… … no.

Kalonis, who was about to answer, stopped talking and looked at Sion with strange eyes.

I had no intention of answering the second question, but the answer almost flowed out naturally without me even realizing it because of what that human said.

This was also an experience I had never had before.

-Before that, why don’t you reveal your identity first? Wouldn’t it be unfair if you seem to know my identity but I don’t?

“You probably already guessed it.”

Shion chuckled at those words and pointed to his own hair.

Dark gray color.

There was only one family in the world with hair of this color.

-… … Was it Agnes’ bloodline? So it was natural to ask that question. Well, if this is another fate, it must be fate.

Were you satisfied with that?

The black dragon muttered there without asking any more questions about Zion.

“Now tell me.”

-You probably know that the fate of this world has already been decided and everything flows accordingly, right?

It was a random remark, but Shion nodded.

This was something I had already heard from the guardian who guarded ‘Kronos’ Five Questions’ once before.

It is probably referring to the main story of the Flosimar Chronicles.

-Dragons like me can glimpse a part of that fate. That’s why I knew that a hero would visit here sooner or later. The fact that I recognized such a hero, summoned him here, and even asked him a favor was the fate I had glimpsed. but… … .

Kalonix’s blazing red eyes look at Sion.

-It’s already distorted. By calling you instead of the hero.

After sending out Zion, the warrior party could be brought back when they visited the Ascalon family, but it was unclear how the slightly twisted fate would change in the future.

“So you were trying to ask the hero for a favor?”

-Yes. But you don’t have to worry about it. Because I was the one who misunderstood and brought in the wrong person. If you want, take it out right now… … .

“Then.”

Sion’s low voice interrupted Kalonis.

“How about I do you a favor?”

With those words, Shion looks at the black dragon with calm eyes.

-… … ?

There was a moment of doubt in Kalonix’s eyes as he looked at Sion.

Did I hear it wrong?

Immediately, the dragon’s eyes widened as if smiling.

-Haha! This is a request I personally wanted to ask the hero. Do you not know what it means?

What he meant was that only a warrior called the savior of mankind would be able to grant this request.

Of course, it wasn’t really that bad, but it was true that it was a very difficult request.

Kalonis thought that it would be difficult even for the royal family of the empire.

“know. And I know what that request is.”

-… … what?

“Wasn’t it about clearing away the darkness that covered the entire Ascalon family?”

-!!!!!!!

Kalonix’s eyes shook greatly at those words.

Because it was the correct answer.

-How on earth can you do that? … .

The darkness that secretly covers the Ascalon family.

The only ones who knew about its existence were Kalonis himself and the matriarch, who was currently lying in a hospital bed.

But how could an outsider, not even a member of the family, know that fact?

“That darkness. “I will erase everything.”

Shion grinned and opened his mouth towards the black dragon, who was filled with astonishment.

After all, that was one of the things Zion wanted to do here in the House of Ascalon.

Zion could not allow another hand to touch the Ascalon family that was to become hers.

‘It would be a good idea to get the reward this guy gives you for everything you do.’

In the chronicle, the warrior listens to Kalonis’ request and receives a reward.

And Shion remembered that the reward was quite good.

‘There’s no way the reward the dragon gives isn’t good in the first place.’

at that time,

-that word… … Is it true?

A half-confident voice flowed from Kalonis’ mouth.

Normally, as soon as he heard this, he would have snorted and sent him out right away.

However, he already knew about the request and was Agnes’ royal family.

And those bored yet confident eyes shook his heart.

For some reason, looking at those eyes made me feel like those words would really come true.

In addition, Kalonics’ current situation was urgent.

‘400 years.’

It was the period of the contract made between Calonics and the first head of the Ascalon family.

If Ascalonga disappears before the end of the contract, Kalonix’s existence will also disappear.

Because that’s how we signed the contract in the first place.

However, in Kalonics’ view, it would not be surprising if the Ascalon family’s situation collapsed at any time.

-I asked if he could really listen.

“I already answered.”

With those words, Shion extended one hand towards the black dragon.

-… … ?

Kalonis looks at Sion’s hand as if asking what he’s doing.

Shion smiled slightly and opened his mouth.

“Before we start, I’d like to receive one of the rewards first.”

Perhaps this meeting would make it easier to end the affairs of the Ascalon family.
