Became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 60
Chapter 17 Agnes State Council (2)
A dark room with only faint light coming from a small lamp hanging in the middle.
A man was tied to a hard iron chair in the middle of such a dark room, his face covered with a black cloth.
“Whoop, whoop!”
The sound of heavy breathing flowing through the fabric.
His slightly trembling body showed how anxious he was.
How much time has passed?
By the time the heavy breathing reached its peak.
Sze-
Someone removed the black cloth, revealing the man’s face.
A man with a strong overall appearance and thick eyebrows.
Berkel Izaart.
He was one of the hundred members of the Gwangseong Council and the head of the Izart family, which ruled the entire Flemish region of the empire.
“Heo-eok, heo-eok!”
Buckell takes a quick breath and looks around at the sudden opening of his vision.
He couldn’t understand why he was here.
As I was returning home after finishing my work at the Imperial Castle, my vision suddenly went black and when I opened my eyes again, I was here.
at that time.
Sigh!
With an unpleasant noise, someone dragged a steel chair out of the darkness of the dark room, placed it in front of Buckel, and sat down on it.
A man with a soft look that matches his long hair.
It was Thierry Ilones, Zion’s servant and the head of Eternal Shadow.
The sight of Thierry with half his face in darkness as the light from the lamp did not shine gave rise to a strange sense of fear.
“What are you doing? “Do you know who I am and do this?”
Berkel glared at Thierry and asked in a voice filled with both anger and anxiety.
“Isn’t it Berkel Izart? Or please tell me. Then, I will release you right away and provide you with a generous apology and compensation.”
Thierry responded with a soft smile.
Of course, I could say this because I was 100% sure that Buckel was right.
“dare… … Do you think you can get away with doing something like this?”
“Haha, of course. “It seems like he’s going to be safe, so he showed his face like this.”
“The family’s knights are probably moving to find me now. It won’t take more than an hour to find this place. “I wonder if you’ll be able to smile the same way as you do now when that time comes.”
“That probably won’t happen. Even if the knights find this place, you will send them back yourself.”
“what… … ?”
Berkel’s eyes are filled with deep doubt at Thierry’s words.
Berkel couldn’t understand what Thierry was saying.
“I think it would be better to read it first and then talk.”
In front of him, Thierry held out a piece of paper from his pocket with a leisurely motion.
“… … !”
Berkel’s eyes, as he was slowly reading what was written on the piece of paper, began to become colored with astonishment rather than doubt.
Because all the injustice, corruption, and criminal records he had committed since he was a teenager decades ago were written down on the paper.
If even one of them were revealed to the world, not only would the image of integrity he had built so far be ruined, but he would also be dragged into the castle dungeon.
Therefore, most of the information was meant to be known only to him, but Buckel had no idea how it was written on that piece of paper.
“Don’t you wonder what will happen to you, Berkel, if this information is revealed to the world?”
Thierry asks Buckel in a happy tone.
The most important thing in the world for Berkel Izaart was his own honor and reputation.
Since I showed him something that would completely destroy those two, his subsequent reaction was very natural.
“… … “What do you want from me?”
Buckell asks in a weak voice with his head down.
A dark line was drawn around Thierry’s mouth.

Jeokseong Palace is one of the five palaces surrounding Baekseong Palace.
Jerk, jerk.
3rd Prince Enoch was walking down the hallway in the basement of Jeokseong Palace with an indifferent expression.
After Rugan Ursula was killed by Sion, he visited the underground a lot.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
“Please stop now… … “Wow!”
People whose bodies had been grotesquely deformed due to black magic and other prohibited experiments were screaming desperately from the glass walls on both sides of the hallway that Enoch was walking through.
Enoch’s eyes didn’t even flinch slightly.
Because he was the one who created this underground facility in the first place.
In order to maintain a cooperative relationship with that ‘being’ and also improve Enoch’s own magic skills, such experiments were essential.
“His Majesty Enoch.”
A cold-looking woman who was following Enoch quietly called to him.
Enoch turns his head slightly toward the woman without stopping his steps.
“In the next three days, a state meeting will be held at Baekseong Palace.”
“know. “Why is that?”
“It looks like Prince Shion might attend the meeting.”
“how? “There won’t be any lawmakers who support it?”

Enoch’s eyes were colored with doubt.
In order to attend the meeting, you needed the support of at least ten lawmakers.
“It seems that they are probably recruiting neutral lawmakers.”
“under… … !”
At the woman’s words, an exasperated sigh flowed from Enoch’s mouth.
“How dare such a bastard even attend a government meeting… … .”
There are a total of 11 lawmakers who claim to be neutral.
Although it was almost impossible to recruit ten of them in such a short period of time, Enoch somehow felt that it might be possible in Zion.
I really hated to admit it, but so far, Shion has achieved everything he thought was impossible.
“Then it would be right to help here.”
I could never see that unlucky face even at a government meeting.
“Until I get out of the underground, make sure you get all the information on the neutral lawmakers.”
“All right.”
Enoch looked at the woman who lowered her head and answered for a moment, and then reached there and pushed the iron door at the end of the hallway.
Sigh!
An iron door opens with an uncomfortable sound, and a terrifyingly enormous amount of magic energy bursts out from within.
Without hesitation, Enoch pushed his body through the iron door through which such demonic energy flowed.
* * *
A small terrace at the top of Chimseong Palace.
‘It’s definitely the best view from here.’
There, Zion looked at the moon illuminating the world with soft light and thought.
It was unknown who built this terrace, but Sion guessed that it was built for the purpose of looking at the sky rather than looking at the imperial castle.
“Your Highness Zion.”
At that time, Thierry came up behind him, bowed his head politely and called out to Shion.
“All inclusion has been completed.”
“okay.”
Sion responded briefly to Thierry’s words.
It was certainly surprising that he gained the support of so many lawmakers that he was able to attend a government meeting in just one week, but in Zion’s eyes, he was not particularly impressed.
Preparations for this had already been made even before subjugating the phantom army.
Because it was very easy for Shion to figure out what the other person valued most and use it.
If you value honor, you will grab your reputation, and if you prioritize survival, you will grab your life.
If you have a fearful personality, you will be thoroughly suppressed, and if you are timid, it will cause you more fear than that.
It was something he had already done countless times since he was the emperor of the original world, so it was something he was more familiar with than anything else.
“What about the other side?”
“There is no significant movement yet. “It looks like he’s probably busy preparing for this national meeting.”
“Is that really the case?”
“… … yes?”
Thierry’s eyes are filled with doubt at Zion’s words.
However, Zion did not answer the question and waved his hand to signal him to go down.
Because I had work to do here today.
‘Raising the Black Star to 3 stars.’
On the terrace left alone after Thierry went down, Zion looked at the night sky with stars rising again.
Until now, Shion had always used the closed-off underground training hall when training Black Star, but today she specifically planned to do it here, on the terrace with a view of the night sky.
The essence of the Black Star was something foreign that did not fit anything in this world, but if I had to choose the closest thing, it would be darkness.
Therefore, Zion planned to challenge the three stars in this place full of darkness.
‘If it’s not today, it has to be postponed until after the government meeting is over.’
That couldn’t be possible.
If everything goes as Zion thinks, something that will change the course of the imperial castle will happen not long after the national meeting is over.
If I couldn’t get to 3 stars by then, it would inevitably cause a huge hindrance to what I was trying to do.
Susss-
Slowly, a darkness blacker than the night began to flow from the whole body of Zion, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the terrace, coloring the surroundings.
Pure white stars blooming in such darkness.
The Heavenly Star Sea (天星海) used by the royal family in the chronicle and the Black Star River (黑星河) used by Zion himself have something in common.
In both cases, each time a star was opened, the user’s power increased to an extent that was incomparable to the previous level.
Should we say that the level of existence has truly changed?
In a way, it could be said that it was natural since it was not simply about moving up to the next level, but about opening a new world.
Instead, it was difficult and difficult to open one more star.
Probably, if Zion had never already risen to the top once, it would have been absolutely impossible to challenge for 3 stars in such a short period of time.
Whoa!
Black stars begin to appear in the center of Zion’s small universe.
One, two, and three.
Unlike the other two stars, which rapidly grew in size by sucking in the surrounding stars, the third star was still faint.
The third black star blinks as if it will disappear at any moment.
at that time.
‘now.’
At the same time that Shion, who had been sitting cross-legged, opened her eyes.
Exciting! Exciting! Exciting! Exciting!
Zion’s heart began to beat like crazy.
Blood vessels that beat at the same speed and amplify the dark energy flowing within the body.
Lunar eclipse.
Now Zion was using Lunar Eclipse.
Because of the two lunar eclipses used so far, the walls of the three castles were already cracked, and Shion thought that if he used them again here, he would be able to completely destroy them.
In fact, using a lunar eclipse when contemplating oneself and expressing the stars outwardly was tantamount to suicide.
It was the same as unleashing an uncontrollable beast inside my already weakened body.
But there was no hesitation in Shion’s eyes.
‘If it’s not like this, it won’t be able to break through.’
Coo coo coo coo!
A storm of black stars begins to rage within the body at an incredible speed.
Zion didn’t try to control it.
It just provides direction on where to go.
There were two ways for the Black Star to flow within Shion’s body.
Blood vessels flowing with blood.
And a dark circuit through which only the black star flows.
For Black Star to reach 3 stars, it was the same as breaking through all of those hidden circuits.
thud! thud! thud! thud!
Black Star, following Shion’s guidance, begins to break through the circuits blocked in his body one by one.
Shion’s body vibrates every time the circuit is pierced.
The situation was so close that the circuit itself could be torn apart at the slightest distortion, but Zion did not experience a lunar eclipse.
No, on the contrary, it amplified it even more.
It is truly a miracle, like drawing a perfect picture with paint spreading indiscriminately on pure white paper.
‘Now for the last time.’
The moment Shion thought that as she felt the Black Star rushing upward through the circuit.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The soaring Black Star collided with the last wall of the circuit, creating a huge explosion within its body.
Along with that, a stream of blood flows down the corner of Zion’s mouth.
Without even being able to wipe away the blood, Shion pulled Black Star upward again.
Because the wall had not yet completely collapsed.
Quang! Quang! Quang!
The last wall was barely uncrackable, even though it had been hit several times since then.
‘There’s about one chance left.’
His weak body was creaking and screaming as if it could no longer bear it.
With his eyes shining coldly, Shion sucked in all the Black Stars spread around him and condensed them into the Black Stars inside his body.
Kiiiiing!
And then the terrifying rotation that follows.
Soon after, the Black Star’s spear, which Zion had created using all the resources it could, was fired once again.
The moment we finally reach the wall of the circuit, which is heavily cracked.
——————!
At some point, Thierry, Fredo, and everyone living in Chimseong Palace, who were looking with questioning eyes at the upper part of Chimseong Palace, could see a foreign energy.
“… … !”
Chimseonggung Palace means the place where the stars sink.
As the name suggests, the scene where all the stars in the night sky sink beneath the eerie darkness extending from the top of Chimseong Palace.
