Became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 86
Chapter 25 Azela (1)
A secret branch of Ouroboros that was previously destroyed by Zion.
Jerk, jerk.
A woman was walking inside a building that had been abandoned ever since and was almost in ruins.
A woman’s deeply sunken eyes.
“What happened?”
Soon, a questioning voice came from the mouth of the woman who was looking around the building.
Because I couldn’t understand this situation.
Apparently, according to the woman’s memory, Ouroboros’ secret branch was intact during this period.
No, it wasn’t revealed to the world.
To begin with, this was before Ouroboros even began its full-fledged activities.
But why is there no one there and the building is half collapsed?
“Then the relic… … .”
The new form of the woman who muttered that disappeared on the spot and appeared in the branch manager’s office on the top floor of the branch.
As expected, the room was completely ruined.
Naturally, the Frost Queen’s relic that the woman had tried to obtain was also gone.
“… … .”
A woman stands still for a moment and looks at the broken glass box that originally contained the relic.
Soon, a cold voice flowed from the woman’s mouth.
“The future is changing.”
This wasn’t the only thing.
The city of Ruin, which should have been destroyed originally, remained intact, the phantom army disappeared, and the emperor, who should not have died yet, was now undergoing a funeral.
Where did it start and how did it become distorted?
And among them, there was one that irritated the woman the most.
No, it was exactly one person.
‘Imprisoned Prince Sion Agnes.’
According to the original, he should have been caught up in a secret struggle and died a long time ago.
But this time, not only was he alive, he had become the nucleus of a storm within the castle.
He is involved in most of the recent events and even killed ‘the’ 3rd Prince Enoch.
I couldn’t even figure out how things had changed so much.
“There are definitely variables I don’t know about.”
That was when the woman shook her head and muttered that.
“I think it’s already been robbed? Are you going to stay here any longer?”
Another voice came from behind the woman.
“No, let’s go.”
A woman speaking while turning her head towards the owner of the voice.
In the woman’s eyes, she saw the image of Rayne Dranir walking towards her with a long spear slung over her shoulder.

“Clearly, as Brother Liam said, there is something different about your highness.”
Chimseong Palace’s study.
There, the man sitting next to Liam Reiner spoke in a harsh voice to Zion in front of him.
The name of the man with the large scar on his face from his left eye to his lip is Girard Butner.
He was the current commander of the border corps.
“Honestly, I was surprised. “I can’t believe you care so much.”
In fact, Girard’s eyes were as surprised as his words.
Because all of the conditions presented by Zion were what the Vigilance Corps so desperately needed.
As if I had looked into his mind.
“I guess I have to do this to protect the front line against the devil.”
Shion answers as if it were obvious.
Zion knew.
For these people, things like power, wealth, and fame that ordinary people desperately want are completely useless.
Their interest is only one thing.
The only thing was to kill the monsters.
Therefore, Zion proposed conditions that were strictly focused on that.
‘Still, if it wasn’t for Liam Reiner, it would have been impossible to get him involved.’
When Zion thinks like that and looks towards Liam,
“By the way, Your Highness, are you sure it’s okay? “It means sending the army we will receive this time to the border with the demonic region.”
A voice full of puzzlement came out of Liam’s mouth.
As he said, Zion had said that he would move some of the Jeongro-o Army corps that he would receive from Utekan to the border with the demon region.
That’s why Girard also said it was surprising.
“okay.”
Shion nodded.
Of course, if it was a corps belonging to the Jeongro Army, it could be said to be the elite of the elite and had tremendous power, but it was not a power that could be used right now anyway.
Not only was their original role set, but unlike the Knights or Wizards, bringing a corps consisting of at least tens of thousands of troops into the capital had to go through very difficult procedures.
Moreover, it was doubtful whether the corps would properly listen to the new commander-in-chief.
Nevertheless, there was a reason why Zion asked Utekan for Jeongro-ogun.
‘An incident that will occur at the border with the Demon Station within this year.’

To solve the incident, which was a major part of the Plosimar Chronicle, at least a legion of troops was needed.
In addition to the troops now on guard.
In addition, by weakening Utekan’s power, it was like killing two birds with one stone for Zion.
“More than that, when are you going to go back to the village?”
“There’s a guy teaching these days, so I think we’ll be leaving right away this evening. Of course, I will stay if His Highness Zion wishes.”
It was when Liam answered Zion’s question, thinking of Perna waiting for him in the village.
-Tweet!
A fist-sized bird with blue feathers appeared from Zion’s right shoulder.
It was the original spirit of the Frost Queen relic.
Once in a while, the spirit would appear like this against Zion’s will, chirp for a few minutes, and then disappear.
Since it seemed like he was getting stronger by absorbing the energy around him little by little each time, Shion also just left it alone.
“that… … “Are you a spirit?”
At that moment, the expressions of Liam and Girard, who discovered the spirit, hardened.
A very serious looking face.
In particular, Girard’s wide-open eyes could not even take their eyes off the spirit.
“that’s right.”
Shion answers that reaction with questioning eyes.
“only once… … “Can I pet you just once?”
Girard asked Zion with an extremely serious expression.
His body was already half tilted towards the spirit.
“… … Do whatever you feel like.”
“thank you!”
As soon as permission comes from Zion’s mouth, Liam and Ghirard approach the spirit and extend their hands.
-Tweet!
The spirit, embarrassed by the sight, spread its wings wide and threatened in its own way, but it was not enough.
‘I never thought you both liked cute things. ‘It doesn’t suit me that much.’
Shion, who had been looking at the spirit chirping and being stroked between two muscular men covered in scars for a moment, looked out the window.
‘Anyway, the time has come.’
At the same time, it was time for Shion to think of something in his head.
“Your Highness Zion.”
Old knight Fredo entered the study and bowed his head towards Sion.
“A messenger from the 4th prince’s side has arrived.”
“Have you finally arrived?”
Shion’s eyes lit up at Fredo’s words.
* * *
It was expected that Utekan would make contact sooner or later.
Because there were things to talk about, including the transfer of Prince Jeongro-o.
I also expected to meet at Baekseong Palace.
Because it was a kind of neutral zone where we could prevent each other from manipulating each other.
Buuuuung!
That’s why he was immediately riding a horse-powered car and heading to Baekseong Palace.
However, there was one situation that Zion did not expect.
“This unwavering comfort cannot be compared to the church’s magic vehicles. “What a grace of light!”
It was 1st Prince Rubrios, stroking the seat of the magic car and admiring it right in front of his eyes.
The reason he was here was simple.
On my way to Baekseong Palace, I ran into him walking.
‘Burn it. Since I’m also on my way to Baekseong Palace anyway, wouldn’t it be better if we ride together?’
With those shameless words, Rubrios got into Sion’s car.
Since he had something to ask him anyway, Shion didn’t bother to refuse.
‘But I never thought I’d see it like this again.’
Shion thought like that and looked at Rubrios.
“To get rid of my horse-powered car just because I’ve been away for a few years… … “Aren’t the Hwangseong officials really doing too much?”
His indifferent attitude of not thinking about the other person was no different from when he first saw him, but the first prince was surprisingly talkative.
Even if Shion himself didn’t say anything, there was no sound at all.
And along with that, a strange favor felt from Rubrios.
In fact, Zion already knew about this favor.
‘Was it from the first time I saw you?’
To be precise, Rubrios had been in favor ever since he approached Sion himself at the emperor’s funeral and spoke to him.
At the time, I didn’t notice because of the unconventional content of those words, but when I thought about it again after some time had passed, the emotion contained in those words was clearly goodwill.
‘Otherwise, I wouldn’t have told you to take refuge in the God of Light you serve.’
The reason was unknown.
That’s why Shion was thinking of asking about him now.
“Haha, if you think about it, getting in the car with you and heading to Baekseong Palace… … .”
“What is the reason?”
A low question flowing from Sion’s mouth cut off Rubrios’s words.
“If there is a reason… … “What reason are you asking?”
“Why did he come to me and say that to me instead of other royal family members at the funeral?”
“That’s because I wanted to save you.”
The first prince answered with a kind smile.
When Zion’s eyes were filled with doubt at those unknown words,
“Shion, do you know why I want to ascend to the throne again?”
The 1st prince continued.
“no.”
“It is to spread light throughout this world. Of course, the Church of Light is still the most widespread in the world, but not to that extent. “In the first place, there is only one god in this world: light.”
Rubrios’ eyes had suddenly changed to the same as the day Shion first saw him.
“Serving other idols is absolutely unacceptable.”
The eyes of fanaticism.
“That is why I will become an emperor, the so-called master of the world, and dedicate the entire world to the light.”
To put it simply, he will ascend to the throne and make the entire world have only the Church of Light as its religion.
As expected, it was the reason Rubrios was called the fanatic prince.
“But in order to ascend to the throne, you must first eliminate other competitors.”
It was a fact that could be known without even asking that the competitors were other members of the royal family.
“Xion, I didn’t want to kill you. That’s why I tried to take you under my wing and turn you to the light.”
So, in the end, Rubrios himself had to kill the rest of the royal family or put them in a suitable situation in order to ascend to the throne, so he did not want to do that, so he tried to take them under his wing.
The most outrageous words that clearly reveal his tendencies.
It was clear that the thought that he would die or not ascend to the throne never existed in Rubrios’ mind.
“So what are you going to do if I keep confronting you?”
“well. I hope not, but if it does… … “I’m not sure yet.”
Rubrios said, looking slightly troubled.
Perhaps even in his mind there was a conflict between the first doctrine of spreading light throughout the world and the favor of the oracle.
Originally, fanaticism had many contradictory aspects.
So he could have refuted it, but instead, Shion asked what he was even more curious about.
“Then what is that oracle you were talking about then?”
The source of Rubrios’ favor towards Sion himself.
“hmm… … .”
The 1st prince frowned as if he was thinking about it for a moment, then slowly spoke.
“According to principle, you shouldn’t reveal anything related to trusts, but… … It would be okay for you to tell me part of it. Zion, do you by any chance know about the existence of the hero?”
“… … “Roughly.”
“A hero is a being who appears to confront the devil, the king of monsters. “It already appeared once hundreds of years ago, and at that time, the Light gave an oracle and announced in advance that the hero would appear.”
“So, has the oracle for the hero come down again this time?”
Rubrios nodded with a surprised face at Shion’s words.
“You’re talking as if you already know. Yes. I came down about a month ago. But there was something unusual about the oracle.”
The contents of the oracle itself were not unusual.
Just like before, they announced the existence of the hero and suggested what to do in the future.
What was unusual was the number of oracles.
“Only one oracle comes down to a warrior. It’s like a law that can never be changed. In the first place, there can only be one hero that the world can create using its deterrent power. but… … “The oracle regarding this hero came down twice in succession.”
Rubrios’ eyes, looking at Zion, begin to emit a strange light.
“The second one is you, Zion.”
