Chapter 32 Agnes Imperial Family Meeting (2)

Same time.

In front of the ‘Moonlight Feast’, a restaurant created by the information guild ‘Moon Eyes’ to hide its identity.

Dozens of people hiding in the dark were watching the restaurant with emotionless eyes.

The name of the group they belong to is Ennadima.

It means ‘hidden spirit’ in the fairy language, and as its name suggests, it was a shadow unit in charge of the hidden power of the Fifth Princess.

“What about inside?”

“It’s quiet. “It doesn’t look like you noticed.”

The subordinate, who had approached the restaurant a little while ago and returned, responded to the words of Elta, the leader of Ennadima.

“Then let’s go in right away.”

A cold voice came out of Elta’s mouth as if there was no need to wait any longer.

with him,

Ssssss!

Dozens of extremely trained personnel began to approach the restaurant under the cover of darkness.

There was no hesitation or anxiety in their eyes.

I had already confirmed several times before that that this was the Eye of the Moon Capital branch of the information guild.

Now that the investigation was over, all that was left was to enter as quickly as possible and destroy the branch to prevent any variables from occurring.

Suddenly!

Ennadima tears off the restaurant door and enters inside, making minimal noise.

The sight of an empty restaurant filled with nothing but darkness came into their eyes.

However, Elta was not embarrassed and went into the galley and started knocking on the wall.

Soon after,

Boom!

A hollow sound came from the corner of the wall to his ears.

Quad deuk!

Elta immediately sent a signal to her subordinates with her eyes and lightly tore down the wall and began to go down the narrow passage behind it.

Ennadima’s crew quickly followed behind him.

How far did it go down like that?

In an instant, Elta’s eyes reached the underground cavity that is the home of the Moon’s Eye,

“… … ?”

For the first time, I felt a sense of doubt.

The joint was empty, as was the restaurant upstairs.

‘what?’

It was understandable that the restaurant was empty.

Even if we set up security guards outside of operating hours, we could have been suspected.

However, no matter how much I thought about it, it was incomprehensible that there were no people up to this place, the center of the eye of the moon.

“Captain, this is… … .”

The other crew members looked at Elta with puzzled eyes, as if they were thinking the same thing.

Cheeeee-

A sound heard in their ears.

It was similar to the sound of the wick of a firecracker burning out.

Along with that, an acrid smell passes by the tip of your nose.

“Like this dog… … !”

Elta finally noticed everything and tried to leave the cavity, swearing.

It was already too late.

Kwaaaaaaaaaa!

An explosion explodes from the center of the cavity and instantly covers them all.

As if that wasn’t enough, the expanding explosion begins to erase the underground cavity and the entire moonlight feast above it, leaving no trace.

The branch of the Eye of the Moon suddenly became nothing but rubble.

“… … .”

Eileen was looking down at the completely devastated branch from the rooftop of a tall building nearby with cold eyes.

Agnes royal family meeting.

This meeting, also called the Agnes Small Meeting, was literally a meeting that only the direct royal family of the empire could attend.

Therefore, only royal family members with succession qualifications could hold a meeting, and other royal family members were free to refuse to attend the meeting.

“… … .”

However, in the small conference room of Baekseong Palace, where the royal family meeting was held, all the royal family members except Shion had gathered since early morning.

They all responded to the call for a meeting held by Zion.

It was a scene that indirectly showed how much Zion’s status and presence in the imperial castle had increased compared to before.

It was obviously not a very pleasant situation for them, but the expression on the face of the 5th princess Deanna, sitting on one side of the round table, was brighter than expected.

‘They must have been completely destroyed by now.’

A little while ago, she had sent Ennadima, one of her shadow units, to Zion’s intelligence organization, the Eye of the Moon.

Obviously, we had thoroughly investigated it several times before, and Ennadima’s military power was one of the strongest under her command, so there would be no variables.

Since I entered the meeting room as soon as the sun rose, I had not yet received the report, but it was clear that there would be good news as soon as the meeting ended.

‘Of course it’s bad news for some people.’

When Deanna smiled while thinking that,

“Utekan, you seem to have come into the embrace of light these days. I see you made the right choice.”

First Prince Rubrios, who was sitting at the round table, looked at Utekan and softly opened his mouth.

“what? What are you talking about?”

Utekan, who had complicated eyes, asked Rubrios.

I already feel like my head is going to explode because of Sion Agnes, so what kind of nonsense is this?

“The other day, I saw a priestess who serves the light enter your palace. So that’s what I thought, but it wasn’t true?”

Utekan’s eyes momentarily wavered at that question.

Because I thought I knew who the priest meant.

‘When and how did you see it?’

Of course, it was enough to create a reason for a priest to come and go.

But the problem was that Rubrios’ eyes, which were now looking at Utekan himself, had a sharp light as if searching.

He must have known something.

‘Things are going wrong.’

It was time for Utekan to think about how to respond to that.

Rattling-

As if the timing was right, the door to the small conference room opened and Zion appeared.

As a result, people’s eyes are focused on Zion.

“Why are you so late?”

Deanna frowned slightly and asked Shion.

It was a reaction befitting her, the most sensitive to time among the royal family.

But soon the 5th princess’s eyes widened as if she was smiling.

“I wonder why. no way… … “Did something happen last night and you’re here to fix it?”

At the same time, a strangely happy voice came out of her mouth.

Deanna’s expectant gaze was fixed on Sion’s soon-to-be distorted face.

but,

“I’m just curious.”

Contrary to her expectations, Shion’s face did not distort as she answered.

No, rather, he was laughing just like her.

“I thought you would be busy sorting things out by now.”

“I beg your pardon… … ?”

What on earth are you talking about?

Deanna’s eyes wavered as she sensed something ominous in that smile.

Until now, whenever Shion smiled like that, something that exceeded her expectations always happened.

And that ominous feeling soon became reality.

“Your Highness Deanna!”

Deanna’s subordinate urgently calls out to her and enters the small conference room.

Only members of the royal family were allowed inside now, but the state of the subordinates seemed to leave no time to worry about that.

Or even if I had to endure it, there was something I had to convey.

“What is it? “I would have told you not to come in until the meeting was over.”

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty. “I was rude because I had to tell you something urgently.”

With those words, the subordinate, who bowed his head to the other royal family members, approached Deanna and began to whisper something in her ear.

Her face began to rapidly distort along with that.

Soon Deanna’s eyes began to burn with embarrassment and anger.

“Shion, what are you… … !”

It was spoken informally, not with the usual respect.

Since the shadow unit and the intelligence organization disappeared at the same time overnight, it would be natural for them to not have the spirit to respect them.

“You should have thought that if you target someone else’s, yours will also be targeted.”

Shion smiled at her, then turned and sat down at the round table as if he had nothing more to do.

“Then let’s start the meeting now.”

As if those words were a signal, the chaotic atmosphere in the small conference room suddenly subsided.

With that, the eyes of the royal family once again focused on Zion.

“Whoa… … .”

Deanna had to hold a meeting first, so she suppressed her anger and sat down.

Just a few months ago, a scene like this would have been unthinkable.

Who would have imagined it?

The sight of Zion, who was called the imprisoned prince, so naturally taking control of the meeting.

‘You seem to have a lot on your mind.’

Shion’s gaze, which was looking around at the royal family sitting at the round table, stopped for a moment on Utekan, who had complicated eyes.

The death of Hanosral and the destruction of the monsters that existed in the Ascalon family.

In addition, he even got the rice cake that Shion himself had sprinkled on him.

Since all of those things happened almost at the same time, it must have been complicated.

‘Good posture.’

Sion hoped that Utekan would think more freely.

That way, the rice cake he threw in his imagination will gain more weight and grow.

“Now tell me why you convened the royal family meeting, Shion.”

At that time, Evelyn, who was watching with incomprehensible thoughts from one side, opened her mouth to Sion.

“You guys probably already guessed it.”

Shion smiled slightly and answered.

At this time, there was only one reason to invite the royal family together like this.

“You all know that the throne can’t remain empty forever, right?”

Of course I knew.

The longer the throne remains vacant, the worse it is for the empire.

But even if they knew, filling the position was a completely different matter.

“Of course. And I know that everyone here wants that position.”

Rubrios opened his mouth in his usual soft tone.

“And very earnestly. I think the throne will never be filled unless all but one die.”

This is a metaphorical expression of the strong desire for the throne of those gathered here.

No, it wasn’t a metaphor, it could have been fact.

“no way… … “You didn’t call us here to tell us to give up because you will ascend to the throne, right?”

Deanna, who had roughly come to her senses next to the first prince, asked Shion.

Shion smiled slightly and shook his head.

There was no reason to say something that wouldn’t work anyway.

“I want to make you a suggestion.”

“… … proposal?”

“A proposal that will allow you to ascend to the throne as well.”

“under.”

Deanna snorted at Shion’s words.

“That somehow makes it sound like the youngest brother will be the one to ascend to the throne if things continue like this.”

“why? “Do you think not?”

“… … .”

She could no longer snort at Shion’s languid voice.

No, not only Deanna but everyone there remained silent, unable to refute.

Because it really seemed like that would happen.

Of course, visible indicators such as base power were still the most disadvantageous for Zion.

However, Shion’s bored eyes that seemed to look down on everything, and the incredible achievements that Shion had shown so far, were inflating the anxiety deep in their hearts.

“Shouldn’t the competition be fair? That’s why I’m opening the door for you to prove your qualifications as emperor.”

Just as he had proven his right to succeed by subduing the phantom army.

Shion’s eyes were wide as he said that, as if he was enjoying this situation.

“… … Well, now is the time to start competing for the throne.”

Evelyn nodded and opened her mouth.

“What is that proposal, Shion? “If it means killing or harming my other brothers and sisters, I will not participate.”

“don’t worry. Because it’s not like that. Besides, it will only help the empire and not harm it.”

“It’s helpful to the empire?”

Shion grinned at that question and opened his mouth again.

“The Seven Great Plagues. No, the subjugation of the evils that have now become the 6th major disaster. “That is my offer to you.”

“… … !”

At those words, Lee Chae looked young in the eyes of the royal family.

“The person who defeats the disaster first and most completely will be given the upper hand in the future competition for the throne. “What do you think? Isn’t this a good condition for you?”

As I said, it wasn’t a bad offer.

It was very difficult and tricky to subdue the disaster, but that did not mean it was impossible.

Their own strength would be more than enough.

Moreover, it seemed like there would be no competition as fair as this.

Because his evaluation will be made not by each other but by all the people of the empire.

“… … .”

The royal family fell silent again as if they were thinking about something.

But unlike before, that silence had a positive meaning.

‘What is this… … .’

Except for Utecan.

He couldn’t help but be unhappy about the Empire’s troubles disappearing.

But just because he opposed it, nothing would change.

Moreover, it is a strange situation to make it known that you are opposed to it.

“Now then, let’s decide on the disaster we will be responsible for from now on.”

Shion, who read people’s thoughts in that silence, opened his mouth with a grin as if he didn’t need to hear an answer.

In Zion’s quiet eyes, the black star was already rippling like waves.
