Became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 62

Chapter 17 Agnes State Council (4)

“Hidduk was hit.”

The deserted outskirts of the imperial castle.

A woman in monastic robes was the first to open her mouth to the man in front of her with impressive emotionless eyes.

They were people I saw often these days.

And all by one person.

“Is it because of Sion Agnes this time?”

“Probably, Hiduk’s contact was cut off precisely at the time when Sion Agnes visited the Imperial University Magic Tower.”

“I even told you to be careful… … “Then what about that wizard?”

“Of course it was a failure. “Did they kill Hiduk for that purpose from the beginning?”

The man shook his head as the woman shrugged her shoulders and asked.

“That’s too much of a leap. “We also managed to find out the information related to the hero through the future eye.”

“Sion Agnes may have that vision of the future… … no.”

The woman who was trying to refute the man’s words also shook her head.

Even in her opinion, it was too big of a leap.

It was much more realistic to simply see it as coincidence upon coincidence.

“Still, I didn’t know that Sion Agnes had become strong enough to kill Hiduk.”

“That surprised me too. So, we are speculating that they may have received outside help.”

“If there is help from outside… … Are you saying that the monster from the university’s magic tower could have come out?”

At Agnes Imperial University’s Magic Tower, there was only one person that a woman could call a monster.

Archmage Ahamad Ozrima.

Since he was one of the seven heavens, which are said to be the pinnacle of the world, he was a person who put a lot of effort and attention on the woman’s side.

“Yes. Since it happened inside the magic tower, there is no way that Ahmad Ozrima did not know. However, seeing that no word has come out, it is highly likely that he did something else.”

“So, there’s a chance that Zion Agnes has Ahamad?”

“That’s not it. He even swore that he would not be involved in anything outside the Magic Tower. I guess he just stepped in because it was something inside the Magic Tower. Still, the fact that this incident was not made public is likely due to the influence of Sion Agnes. “Because he also seems reluctant to reveal our existence to the world.”

A man gives his guess in response to a woman’s question.

“That one has the same feelings as us. “I don’t know why.”

The woman’s expression turned cold as she answered him with a grin.

“We should definitely get rid of it, right?”

Along with that, an even colder voice came out of her mouth.

The man nodded at the woman’s words.

“There is one way to get rid of it without having to do anything on our part.”

“What?”

“Do you know that Sion Agnes recently destroyed an entire group of wizards?”

“The Icarus Wizards? know. “Why is that?”

“They say that because of that, the 3rd prince is plotting to kill Sion Agnes. “From what I’ve heard, it’s almost at the level of hatred.”

“okay? Then you just need to encourage it a little more. ‘That guy’ is in charge of the Third Prince, right?”

“Yes.”

“I don’t like ‘that guy’ because he’s a bit strange.”

The woman frowned and thought of one of the demons attached to 3rd Prince Enoch.

He has outstanding abilities and skills, but he also has quite perverted hobbies.

Actually, that might be why he was a good match for 3rd Prince Enoch.

“Do you want to talk to ‘that guy’?”

“i get it.”

The man answered the woman’s words without hesitation.

Because I was going to do that even without asking.

“In a little while, a ‘hero’ will appear in the world. Until then, it would be best to erase as much of the annoying stuff as possible.”

The eyes of the woman muttering as she looked at the man suddenly began to glow with a mysterious light.

Agnes State Council.

It is a meeting that is held only twice a year, and is the second most important and largest convention in the empire.

As such, only those with the highest power in the empire can attend, and the meeting itself is conducted in a very solemn and formal manner.

And this meeting was also proceeding similarly to the meetings held so far.

“Among the agenda items presented at the last meeting… … .”

The eyes of most people attending the meeting remained in one place.

Directly towards Zion, who was sitting in his seat and looking at the meeting with eyes that did not know what he was thinking.

From the moment I entered the conference room until now.

People’s eyes never left Zion.

As if possessed by something.

‘Is this really the Zion Agnes that the author saw before?’

This was a common thought that came to mind among people who had seen Zion at least once in the past.

Over the past few months, I had heard that he had completely changed and continued to take unconventional steps, as if he had had an awakening, but this was my first time seeing him in person.

And the sight was even more impressive than they expected.

‘Except for his appearance, I think it’s safe to say he’s a completely different person.’

The weakness that once prevented me from even making eye contact with others has completely disappeared, and in its place was languor.

Such languor was exuding the scent of a ruler looking down on everything from above with boredom.

In addition, the body has become incomparably stronger than before, and a strange ominous feeling radiates from that body.

The ominousness was making even the people in the conference room, who had already experienced all the hardships and did not even bat an eye at most things, feel scared.

‘Is that why Icarus suffered?’

One of them, Groud Ozrima, was also looking at Sion with surprised eyes.

I could tell even though I only saw him appear and walk inside the conference room.

The term pureblood abandoned by the author no longer suits him.

How on earth did things change so much in such a short period of time?

I was even beginning to understand the thoughts of the now dead Rugan Ursula who claimed that Prince Sion had mastered black magic.

‘Has Agnes’ blood really awakened too late?’

Thinking like that, Groud looked at Alstein next to him.

His face was as blunt as usual, but his eyes were as surprised as Groud himself, as if he couldn’t hide it.

‘This could be annoying.’

When Groud thought to himself,

‘There are a lot of familiar faces.’

Zion was also taking in all the gazes directed at him and observing the faces of the people in the conference room.

Chronicles of the Flosimar Champions.

This novel was clearly a story centered around a warrior and his companions, but there were also quite a few stories related to the imperial castle.

Since it can be said to be the center of the world, there were many things happening around here.

As if to show why it was given a title even if it was a chronicle rather than a biography, in the Plosimar Chronicle any event that was important enough to have an impact on the world was recorded in detail even if it was not directly related to the hero.

Therefore, people who could enter the People’s Palace, the center of imperial power, and especially those who could attend state meetings, had a high probability of appearing in the chronicle.

‘About half of these… … .’

Among these, Zion divided those who should be saved and those who should be killed.

The criteria was simple.

Good or evil didn’t matter.

Those who will help you on your future path and those who will not.

And it’s related to monsters… … .

The one who is the monster itself.

Most of the people here were related to this, and each and every one of them had the power to shake up the empire.

There was no such thing as anxiety in Shion’s eyes.

If I was going to give up like this, I wouldn’t have started in the first place.

No, on the contrary, even a strange expectation was flowing out.

‘Not yet.’

Shion wiggled her fingers as she looked at the monsters that wore human skin and pretended to be humans.

Since they played a direct role in bringing down the empire, the urge to hunt them soared, but it was not the time yet.

If you destroy it one by one as planned, as you have done so far, its huge body will definitely be revealed one day.

That will be the day when Zion himself begins to weed out the evil that has seeped into the empire in earnest.

‘I guess I’ll have to sort this out first before that.’

Shion thought like that and looked at his brothers and sisters.

According to the chronicles, the chaos of the empire was also due to the absence of the emperor.

This was largely due to the endless secret struggle and civil war between the prince and princess, who had equal power, to take the next imperial throne.

In the end, the next emperor did not emerge until a full-scale war against the demonic forces broke out, which served as one of the main causes of the world’s destruction.

Zion had no intention of letting things go by like that.

Whatever it takes.

‘First of all… … .’

Zion’s eyes turned to Enoch, who was looking at her with burning eyes.

Everything planned so far has failed because of Shion himself, so it wouldn’t be unreasonable for him to express that anger.

In fact, even if Enoch had not targeted her, Zion had planned to eliminate Enoch first among the royal family from the beginning.

The reason was that Enoch was the most annoying, but more than that, he was the easiest opponent to clean up.

No matter what anyone says, 3rd Prince Enoch’s main strength was Ozrima, his maternal family.

The greatest magic family in the empire, and a family with the highest level of military power that even produced ‘Sky’.

Sion knew a way to make the Ozrima family useless.

at that time.

“We will conclude this matter regarding the agenda of the last meeting and move on to deliberation of the agenda submitted to this meeting.”

In Sion’s ears, Evelyn’s voice was heard as she concluded the settlement of the previous meeting and handed over the order to the plenary session.

With that, Shion stopped thinking and focused on the meeting.

This is precisely why he participated in the government meeting today.

“Let us first consider the agenda submitted by Utecan Agnes.”

Submission of agenda for government meetings.

Basically, everyone who could participate in the meeting had the authority to submit agenda items.

Even so, it was difficult to pass and took a long time, so it became an unspoken rule for the royal family to compile the opinions of their subordinates.

Naturally, the more lawmakers and nobles who supported the royal family, the higher the chance of passing the deliberation.

“Regarding the increase in the military budget… … .”

The plenary session proceeded smoothly.

Starting with the 4th prince Utekan, the 3rd prince Enoch, and the 5th princess Deanna.

Agenda moves quickly, giving what is due and taking what is needed.

Although the agenda was being passed without much friction, some people, including Deanna, had doubts in their eyes.

‘what?’

The image of Zion reflected in Deanna’s eyes.

quiet.

Sion Agnes’ side was very quiet.

After the submission and deliberation of the agenda corresponding to the plenary session, it was safe to say that the government meeting was effectively over.

Even though the plenary session was almost over, Shion did not say anything and just watched the meeting with calm eyes.

I neither agree nor oppose it.

‘He must have attended the government meeting because he had something he wanted.’

It was a meeting that he attended, attracting as many as 11 lawmakers to his side in just one week.

However, after attending, it looks like he is not doing anything.

Especially to her who had been watching Shion’s movements for a while, the sight was very strange.

‘There isn’t even a pre-submitted agenda.’

Deanna furrowed her eyebrows as if she didn’t understand while reading the agenda list she received before the meeting.

“Now that all submitted agenda items have been reviewed, this is it… … .”

“I’d also like to propose an item.”

Evelyn was about to move on to the next step when a low voice interrupted her words.

People’s gaze naturally turned towards the direction from which the voice was heard.

At the end of those gazes was Shion, who didn’t even say a word while the meeting was going on.

“You mean here and now?”

Evelyn asks, looking at Shion with questioning eyes.

The Agnes State Council was one of the highest councils in the empire, so each item on the agenda could have an impact on the entire empire.

Therefore, most agenda items were prepared and submitted in advance, and proposals were rarely made on the spot.

“okay.”

“What is it?”

However, this did not mean that suggestions could not be made, so Evelyn asked Sion about the agenda.

Along with that, a deep curiosity in the eyes of others.

How important is it that they have remained silent until now because they are trying to propose such an important agenda?

However, Zion’s next words were very different from their expectations.

“Inspection ceremony.”

“… … ?”

“I suggest holding a review ceremony.”

“If it’s a review ceremony… … Are you talking about the royal family review ceremony?”

“that’s right.”

There was doubt and confusion in the eyes of people, including Evelyn, at Zion’s answer.

Agnes royal family regular review ceremony.

Simply put, it was an event where the imperial family led their forces, such as knights, outside the imperial castle and inspected them in front of the people of the empire.

By demonstrating the majesty of the imperial family to the people of the empire, it was an opportunity to inform them of the health of the Agnes family and at the same time to receive recognition from the people of the empire as a direct royal family member with the right to officially succeed to the throne.

An event that has significant meaning, but cannot be considered that important.

But why is there suddenly talk about a regular inspection schedule?

An unexpected proposal that no one expected.

At that time, people were wondering if the royal family inspection ceremony they knew was different from the inspection ceremony that Shion spoke of.

“I want to attend the royal family review ceremony… … “Are you serious about that?”

Evelyn asked Sion again.

There was a hint of worry in her eyes.

In order for the royal family to conduct the royal family inspection ceremony, they basically had to have their own forces.

However, as far as Evelyn knew, Zion did not have any power.

‘Even if we postpone it further, it won’t be any better… … .’

However, whether or not he knew what she was thinking, Shion nodded and answered.

“okay. “I think it will be okay in a week.”

The original royal family inspection ceremony was held about a month later.

However, Zion was talking about pushing it forward by as much as three weeks.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! good night! “I agree!”

At those words, 4th Prince Utekan was the first to smile broadly and vote in favor.

Contrary to his boisterous smile, his sharply shining eyes seemed to have already calculated all the gains and losses that would occur to him as the parade was pulled.

“I will be against it. “If the royal family inspection ceremony is suddenly brought forward, all current schedules will be disrupted.”

Deanna, on the other hand, votes against him.

In fact, she was more wary of Shion than the stated reason.

The Shion she had seen so far would never have made such a suggestion without thinking.

Therefore, it was right to be cautious until we figured out his intentions.

“What about you, Enoch?”

Due to Deanna’s opposition, people’s attention focused on 3rd Prince Enoch and the nobles who supported him.

Of course, Sion will be in favor, but Evelyn is neutral.

In that case, the direction of the agenda will vary depending on Enoch’s choice.

“I agree.”

Contrary to expectations that he would oppose the agenda since it was a conflicting agenda from Zion, Enoch immediately voted in favor of Evelyn’s question as if he had been waiting for it.

‘You create opportunities on your own.’

Did they even know about it in advance?

Bringing up the review ceremony was something Enoch himself had intended to suggest after the plenary session was over.

However, since Zion suggested it first, Enoch had no choice but to be willing.

Of course, Shion might also be making up something, but it didn’t matter.

‘This time, no matter what you do, I will destroy everything.’

Murderous intent stirs from deep within Enoch’s eyes as he looks at Zion.

But the 3rd prince didn’t know.

Shion’s eyes are smiling at him.

The fact that the three black stars shining within those eyes see through all of that murderous intent and even the demonic power hidden behind it.
