Became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 8

Chapter 5: Being deceived (3)

“Did you have a nice time meeting His Highness Zion?”

A middle-aged knight with an impressive scar dividing his face diagonally bowed his head towards Evelyn Agnes, who had just returned to his palace, and opened his mouth.

“… … Yes.”

Evelyn accepted his greeting and nodded after a while.

“Then why did you bring the knights back?”

“I said I wouldn’t accept it.”

“yes? What do you mean? Are you saying His Highness Zion said he wouldn’t accept it?”

“okay.”

Because it did not make sense through common sense, the driver’s eyes were filled with doubt.

The imperial castle was breached, Chimseong Palace was attacked, and the party almost lost his life.

However, I wouldn’t be surprised if they decided to take refuge in this palace, but they wouldn’t receive any support.

In addition, Evelyn’s expression when answering was also different from usual.

‘Usually he just had a bitter look on his face… … .’

Although bitterness was evident today, there were other emotions on her face as well.

Concern, pity and… … Surprised and embarrassed.

What on earth happened?

“It has changed. To the point where I doubt if they are the same person.”

Muttering something closer to a monologue than to a knight, Evelyn recalled her encounter with Sion a moment ago.

It was clear that Shion’s behavior was different from usual, but the fact that she was participating in the succession ceremony made her not only embarrassed but angry.

Evelyn thought that it was clear that Shion would die if she received the succession ceremony.

He could not let Shion, whom he considered his only younger brother, die, so he used force to break his will.

‘But I withstood that momentum.’

As it was, he was at a level where it wouldn’t be surprising if he fainted the moment he showed it.

However, Zion went beyond simply enduring that force and let it flow away with great ease.

When did it grow like that?

Or has he been hiding his powers all this time?

Evelyn felt surprised and amazed by him, but at the same time, she also felt danger.

A black star swirled in Zion’s eyes as he faced his own heavenly sea.

‘It definitely wasn’t natural.’

A strange star that cannot be seen anywhere else in the world.

Evelyn opened her mouth to the knight, recalling the black star that had stirred fear deep in her heart.

“Secretly increase the perimeter around Chimseong Palace so as not to be discovered by Zion. “Don’t let something like this happen again.”

“All right.”

“and… … “Please keep an eye on Zion as well.”

At Evelyn’s command, the knight quietly bowed his head.

* * *

“Hehe, it seems like Her Highness Evelyn cares a lot about Her Highness Sion.”

Zion looked at what was placed on the table in front of him while listening to Fredo’s voice smiling happily next to him.

A round object emitting bright blue light due to the concentration of tremendous magical power.

It was the heart of a thousand-year ogre.

Ogre is a monster that can be said to be a symbol of strength and stamina.

If such an ogre lives for a thousand years, its power will gather towards its heart.

It was known that if humans ate it, they would be able to gain tremendous strength and stamina.

“You willingly give me something so precious…” … .”

In fact, Evelyn had sent health food several times in the past to nourish Sion’s weak body.

This was the first time someone gave me something that was more effective than most elixirs.

‘At this rate, it will be a temporary measure.’

Sion thought as she felt the magic flowing from the heart of the thousand-year ogre.

Even if a normal person were to cook and eat this heart, he would not be able to absorb even half of it and would only get the effect of strengthening his bones and muscles, but Zion was different.

I was confident that I could completely absorb the power of the heart and achieve even more effects, and that meant that the limitations when using Black Star would be greatly reduced for the time being.

Even so, it will not be a fundamental solution unless the body itself is repaired.

‘Eveline Agnes.’

With that, Sion put aside his thoughts about the heart of the thousand-year ogre and thought of Evelyn Agnes, who had visited Chimseong Palace earlier.

Should we say that he is one of the main characters in the Plosimar Chronicles?

Even though it was only the beginning of the chronology, she was already complete.

Both as a ruler and as a warrior.

In particular, the stars shining in her eyes showed that Cheon Seong-hae’s achievements had already reached their peak.

It’s natural.

According to the Plosimar Chronicle, it was a power that only the direct descendants of the Agnes royal family could use.

It is known as the power that reigns above everything, and as the saying goes, most of those who have basically mastered Cheonseonghae have a level of power that is a level higher than that of ordinary strongmen.

Its characteristic feature is that, like the Black Star, the number of stars shining in its eyes varies depending on its achievements.

‘But it’s strange.’

There was something I didn’t think of when I read it, but I could understand it when I saw it in person.

I felt Evelyn’s natural beauty at first glance.

Shion felt something similar to his Black Star in that, albeit to a lesser extent.

The Black Star is a power that only Shion himself can use.

But how does a similar feeling of power exist?

‘Well, it doesn’t make sense that it came into the text like this.’

Shion shook his head, thinking that there was more to learn in the future, and thought about the time he met Evelyn again.

‘If it’s 6 stars, it’s safe to say it’s already top level.’

Evelyn Agnes put pressure on Sion, showing her true nature, and in response, Sion revealed her own dark nature.

If Sion herself had not shown her strength, Evelyn would never have given up on her intention to give up the succession ceremony.

‘… … Huh, I understand. Shion, if you really want it.’

Evelyn looked surprised for a moment at Shion’s reaction, but eventually opposed it.

‘I won’t ask you about the powers you have now. But I hope you will explain it when you think the time is right.’

Although I added this.

The conversation that followed was about things to be careful about when holding a succession ceremony and how they were doing.

From that conversation, Sion could tell that Evelyn had a great deal of favor towards him.

Well, that means he was generously given an elixir like the heart of a thousand-year ogre.

In fact, the main reason why Evelyn came to Chimseong Palace was because she was worried about Sion’s safety and wanted to hand over the heart of a thousand-year ogre.

‘This favor might come in handy later.’

at that time.

“Your Highness Zion, the Princess of Barmel has come to visit.”

As if he knew that Sion had finished thinking about Evelyn, the servant outside the door announced that a guest had arrived.

“Let me in.”

A woman with auburn hair and dark red eyes came through the door with him.

It was Priscilla.

“Why did you suddenly call me after treating me like someone who didn’t exist?”

Her tone was brusque, as if what had accumulated had not yet been resolved, but there was a strange anticipation in her eyes.

“Since he has been staying at the palace for so long, I have to pay for his meals.”

“yes? What do you mean suddenly?”

Priscilla’s forehead frowned slightly in question at Shion’s sudden words.

“How long will it take to complete this?”

“What is that… without any bottom or end?” … .”

However, her doubts began to turn into surprise the moment she saw the piece of paper Shion held out.

“this… … “Where did you get it?”

Priscilla asks Shion, scanning the paper with her nose almost buried.

There was a magic circle drawn on the paper she was looking at.

“I drew it.”

“yes? I beg your pardon? “Your Majesty drew this?”

Priscilla’s eyes go beyond surprise and are colored with astonishment.

The fact that Shion knew how to draw a magic circle was surprising, but that wasn’t the problem.

“This form and composition… … And even the driving principle. “These are things I’ve never seen before.”

Priscilla, who was an outstanding wizard in her own right and had the power of the Barmel family, was even able to understand the latest theories put forth by various magic towers.

But I couldn’t find anything like this in any of those theories.

That means that this magic circle itself was created by Zion.

No matter how easy something is, creating something new is only possible if you master a field to the limit.

‘I never thought Prince Shion would have mastered magic to this extent… … .’

“I asked when it could be completed.”

Shion seemed to know what Priscilla was misunderstanding, but he did not bother to correct her.

Red enemy camp.

This magic circle with the simple name of finding enemies was a magic from the Chronicles of the Flosimar Warriors.

It was a magic developed just before the war between humanity and demons broke out two years later, and did not yet exist in this era.

Although it only had one effect, it was very useful.

As if to inform the reader, the Plosimar Chronicle described this magic circle in such detail that it even included a picture, so Sion also remembered it.

“I can fully complete it by tomorrow.”

Priscilla responded to Shion’s words without taking her eyes off the magic circle.

It was my first time seeing a magic circle, but the driving principle and the magic itself were not that difficult, so it was easy to complete.

But the problem was its purpose.

‘It’s like detection magic, but it’s a little different. It’s as if they’re trying to force something out… … .’

Is it because the question was so big?

Priscilla, who took her eyes off the paper for the first time, asked Zion.

“But may I ask what you plan to use it for?”

“Ready to hunt.”

To Priscilla’s question, Shion slightly raised the corner of his mouth and answered.

Late afternoon, with the last light from the sun setting behind Baekseong Palace, staining the world red.

Hannah, one of the maids of Chimseong Palace, was walking hastily somewhere while looking at the sunset outside the window.

“What’s going on?”

Questions filled her eyes.

Not only her, but also the servants and knights in the castle were walking down the hallway with questioning expressions.

Prince Sion’s sudden order to gather a few minutes ago.

Therefore, everyone working at the palace, including Hannah, was moving to the assembly area outside the palace.

“Hannah.”

A soft voice came from behind Hannah as she walked.

Hannah turned her head and saw an old man with graying gray hair coming in.

“Ah, Chief Bush!”

The joy in her eyes along with that.

The old man’s identity was Baren, the deputy general.

Varen, who had been working at Chimseong Palace for almost 20 years, was well-liked among the servants for his unique kindness and gentleness, and Hanna considered him like her grandfather.

“Chief Deputy Chief, do you know why His Royal Highness asked us to gather together?”

“I don’t know.”

Varen shook his head in response to Hanna’s question as she approached him.

“After he changed, I can’t even understand his thoughts. “He doesn’t have the personality to explain what he does.”

“that’s right… … And His Highness, the transformed prince, is a bit scary.”

Hannah nodded and answered those words.

Prince Sion, who had changed after the attack, became much more difficult to see than before, and did not order anything from her or her servants.

That made things easier, but Hannah was afraid of Prince Sion.

Every once in a while, I would see Prince Shion even from a distance, and my whole body would feel chills, as if I had fallen into cold water.

The unfamiliar feeling that came with it was enough to lead her to fear.

How long did it take to walk like that?

“I guess they only called me on night shift today.”

Hanna speaks to Varen as she looks at the people already gathered at the training hall where she finally arrived.

Soon, Hannah saw the image of Zion standing in the center of the training hall.

For some reason, she felt an ominous feeling as Prince Shion looked down at the people without saying a word with his serene eyes.

When Hannah unconsciously wrapped herself in the chills that came from him.

“Start.”

A cold voice came out of Prince Shion’s mouth, as if he had decided that no one else would come.

Priscilla, who was standing next to him, nodded and began to recite a spell.

Suuuu-

Accordingly, red light begins to flow from the magic circle previously drawn on the floor of the training hall.

That red light grew darker as Priscilla’s spell continued, and not only filled the training hall, but also spread throughout the entire Chimseong Palace.

The attendants and knights retreated from that light with frowns, perhaps because they felt an instinctive repulsion.

“What is that light… … uh? Commander Bush?”

Hannah’s eyes were filled with doubt as she looked towards Varen, shivering under the eerie red light.

Unlike her and other people, Varen was looking at the magic circle, the source of the red light, with a mesmerized expression.

As if possessed.

Additionally, it was when Hanna tried to grab Varen’s collar as he approached the magic circle.

Knock.

A drop of even redder blood fell in the very center of the magic circle emitting red light.

That moment.

“iced coffee… … .”

Hannah could see.

Varen, who treated her like a granddaughter.

Kkkkkkk!

Huge tentacles extending from every hole in Varen.
