Episode 237
“Now… what did you say?”
Erdan asked back with a stern face.
Huh.
My young friend has long ears, but what should I do if he is already experiencing hearing loss?
“Would you like me to say it again so you can understand? Yes.
“I decline the offer.”
An awkward silence enveloped the banquet hall.
Harin looks scared and turns pale.
The 2nd prince glared at me with a stern expression.
Baris’ eyes kept looking back and forth between me and Erdan, trying to figure out the situation.
“I thought you were pretty bright, but you’re such a fool.”
“Then you are a little boy full of pride.”
“Even though I know who I am,
“Are you spewing out abusive language?”
“This is a democratic country. It’s not a country for you idiots.”
I snorted.
I guess we need to deliver democracy to this guy.
Varys joined the conversation.
“Look, Mr. Mincheol. No matter what, what you’re doing now is out of etiquette.”
low voice.
I could even feel a subtle anger on my face.
Well, I did cross the line.
But… ‘Yes. All right.’ You can’t just bow your head, right?
“I know. But I still have to say what I have to say.”
Please stay still for a moment.
Because that will be helpful to the ambassador as well.
‘It seems like this guy has some tricks up his sleeve.’
If your guess is correct.
When things go wrong, Baris is also responsible.
It was a problem that had to be dealt with.
I looked at Erdan again.
Instead of ambition, the flame of anger burned brightly in its green eyes.
“I don’t think the second prince of Vanaheim would come to Earth just to support one human.”
Elves are arrogant.
I’m not criticizing you for being a bitch for no reason.
Although they encountered each other on the battlefield several times in their past life, they are a tribe whose pride is greater than their abilities.
“Isn’t it because the value of the Earth is so great?”
“Hey, kid. Be honest about your desires.”
I paused for a moment.
Erdan looked at me intently with a questioning look in his eyes.
At this point, it feels like throwing a bomb.
-you. You want to become the next emperor of the Vanaheim Empire, right?
Instead of speaking vocally.
Erdan, carrying internal force and using electric sound
I said it so that only I could hear.
That moment.
Erdan’s eyes trembled.
The eyes are agitated.
Harin and Baris are looking at the two of us with expressions of confusion.
I tried poking it just in case.
Seeing that he was quite surprised, it seems that my guess was correct.
He’s such a cute kid.
Don’t you think we have something else to talk about?
*米*
Erdan Siannadel looked unusually embarrassed.
How many surprising things must have happened to be born as a prince of the Vanaheim Empire?
One thing was certain:
There are only a handful of times in my life that I’ve been as embarrassed as I was today.
‘now. ‘What is that human saying?!’
What Mincheol whispered was Erdan’s heart
It was enough to shake things up.
I will become the emperor of Vanaheim!
It was an ambition that I kept in my heart and did not share with anyone.
That ambition.
I was seen through by someone I saw for the first time today, a person whom I thought was inferior.
Erdan couldn’t speak.
Fear of the unknown.

I even felt an unprecedented fear that if I opened my mouth the wrong way, my thoughts would be read.
“that……
-It’s better not to answer. What I’m saying is, kid, you’re the only one listening.
Erdan’s eyes were bloodshot.
Human beings facing each other.
The corners of Mincheol’s mouth turned upward in an arc.
That smiling figure cannot be underestimated either.
“Lord Baris.”
“Yes. Your Majesty.”
“Can I speak alone with this person?”
“Well, I do…
Baris expressed his disapproval.
It was quite difficult for Ambassador Vanaheim to have just two people without an escort.
Moreover, Mincheol also staged a short but armed demonstration.
‘If Mincheol puts his mind to it, I can’t stop him even if I do everything in my power.’
I felt it after sparring earlier.
The feeling of seeing a big wall.
I didn’t feel this pressure even when facing Earth’s 12 Heroes.
It was too dangerous to let such a being stand alone in a situation where he was at odds with the prince.
Erdan twisted his golden hair.
“Lord Varys. Do I have reason to be afraid?”
“I must ensure your safety inside the embassy.”
“Grand Duke. I am not a child.”
A look of conflict appeared on Baris’ face.
After thinking for a moment, I sighed softly.
I rested.
“I understand. I will do as you wish.”
Baris turned around and lightly touched Mincheol’s shoulder with his right hand.
Unusual atmosphere.
The intention was to calm Mincheol down.
“Hehe. You don’t have to worry.”
“You didn’t hesitate to touch my neck before.
Didn’t he point a knife at me?”
“It was a childhood hit. That’s it.”
Baris let out a short sigh.
Harin also glanced at Mincheol with anxious eyes and reluctantly opened her mouth.
“The powerless gnome follows the prince’s will.”
I came here to set up a deal with the elves, but what kind of disaster is this?
Harin grumbled inwardly.
There were only two left in the large banquet hall.
Erdan glared at Mincheol with bloodshot eyes.
He keeps pursing his lips, but doesn’t say anything easily.
On the outside, he seemed angry, but if you looked closely, you could see a hint of confusion.
Mincheol forced himself to keep the corner of his mouth from twitching.
“How did you know?”
“What do you mean?”
“What I am saying is that I am aiming for the throne.”
“I’m not denying it.”
“This is what the man has in mind. To openly deny it is to hurt one’s pride.”
Erdan spoke proudly.
Aside from his embarrassed appearance, he looks quite confident.
Mincheol’s eyes changed slightly.
“In Korea, there is an excellent study called contemplation.”
“Contemplation?”
“It is an art that allows you to read a person’s disposition and mind by looking at their face or eyes.”
“That’s ridiculous. Are you saying you read my sonic thoughts with that grip?”
“But it’s true.”
Ugh.
Erdan groaned.
‘It’s a joke, but it goes smoothly.’
It was thanks to the Eyes of Truth that Mincheol understood Erdan’s psychology.
The aptitude of an emperor.
All of their characteristics had the quality of dominating someone.
Hmm-
Mincheol cleared his throat.
“Well, I’m good at physiognomy, but you said this earlier.”
-Brother, Elysium is making Earth the main axis of the alliance, and is a passive cooperative.
I hope it remains a power relationship.
This is what Erdan said earlier.
There was sufficient grounds for reasoning.
“Are you saying you made that inference just by looking at his face and hearing what he said?”
“Yes.”
“That’s nonsense.”
Erdan swallowed his anger.
I was the one who fell for that ridiculous story.
Mincheol smiled slightly as he watched Erdan disintegrate.
Unless one knew of the existence of the [Eye of Truth], there was no way to know how Mincheol recognized the ambition in his heart.
“I guess the prince doesn’t really like the current state of Vanaheim?”
“Human. Don’t keep trying just because you got lucky with my intentions.”
“Well, I guess I like it.”
“…I don’t like it.”
Mincheol laughed lowly.
“Kkeukkeuk. Our prince is quite honest.”
“Are you making fun of me?”
“No way. I’m smiling because I like how ambitious you are.”
Mincheol lowered his upper body and was at eye level with Erdan.
“Prince. Shall we guess the real reason why you wanted to sponsor me?”
“Hmph. That’s the reason…
“Using my support to gain the support of reformists in Vanaheim.”
Erdan tried to reply to that, but.
Gooooo-
The sudden surge of powerful force
I couldn’t take it off.
The origin of that energy was Mincheol.
Erdan cannot answer.
The moment I answered, I felt like I would be eaten by a ferocious energy.
“I am positive about the prince’s ambition. No, rather, I view it favorably.”
Mincheol spoke softly.
Unlike the tone of voice, there was a deep murderousness inside that reminded me of a wild beast.
With bloodshot eyes, Erdan tried hard not to be eaten by the force.
wrote.
“But if you idiots want to use me in a political fight, shouldn’t I have to pay that much in return?”
“Well, J1 ugh…
“Think carefully about what you can give me and how much I am worth.”
Mincheol stroked Erdan’s head.
At the same time, the ferocious energy disappeared without a trace, like a lie.
“Okay, prince. I hope we can talk more honestly next time.”
yo. this.”
Mincheol stood up.
‘no. ‘I can’t end the story here.’
Most of what Mincheol said was true.
The current state of Vanaheim is divided into two.
Conservatives are careful to maintain a cooperative relationship with Elysium and take care of national interests.
On the other hand, the reformist faction argues that the elves’ autonomy should be further secured.
Erdan is in favor of progressives.
It was close.
For elves to become greater.
In order to become a leading force in the multidimensional universe, rather than an ally of Elysium, we must secure influence on Earth.
and.
He believed that becoming the next emperor was the way to serve the Vanaheim Empire.
‘To do that, we have to somehow persuade the author.’
A collaborator who solved the dark elf incident.
At the same time, he is a person who attracts enough attention on Earth to be called the next hero.
Mincheol, who was well-known in both Vanaheim and Earth, had to be brought over to the same side.
‘I was complacent.’
I thought that if we promised support at the imperial level, it would come naturally.
Mincheol knew the inside circumstances of the Vanaheim Empire very well.
The moment when I strain my legs to catch Mincheol who is moving away.
“Don’t make me say it twice. Today.
“The story ends here.”
Mincheol grinned and once again spread the same ferocious force as before.
“Ugh”
“Rather than just talking about sponsorship, it would be better to think about what you need to prepare to become my partner.”
Mincheol drew a clear line.
He turned and opened the closed cupboard door.
Rice *
The dinner ended in an ominous atmosphere.
On the way back home.
I rested my chin and looked out the window.
‘In the future, the flow of the multidimensional universe will revolve around the Earth.’
The prince’s judgment was right.
I found it shameful that they were trying to lure me to their side at a cheap price.
His political sense is related to the current situation and
It fit together quite well.
‘Once you’ve been given a chance, taking it is an ability.’
There was little interest in the succession structure of the Vanaheim Empire.
I had no desire to participate in the politics of those idiots who live for their own self-esteem.
but.
I was personally interested in the second prince, Erdan.
That’s why I beat everyone up, had honest conversations, and gave them a second chance.
‘There must be many people who made the same judgment as Erdan.’
He selected Verde as an apostle and gave instructions to build up his power.
but.
Looking at Erdan’s reaction, there are probably quite a few politicians who are already interested in the Earth.
no.
They may try to get involved in the global situation in earnest.
‘Pandemonium alone has a deep relationship with the black community, right?’
Verde alone is not enough.
So that no other dimension can interfere with Earth.
We need to further increase our power in the district.
wait for a sec…….
Then there is one suitable person.
At the tower, he faced the shadows of the mythical era and received godhood, allowing him to add one more apostle.
What if you make that guy an apostle and raise him?
I fiddled with my cell phone.
