Duke Martens approached the prince, who was sprawled on the sofa, picked up the wine bottle that had fallen from his lap, and asked, “What happened? It’s all messed up. Thanks to the Empress from the Shatonyl Kingdom!”
Prince Tesler, pouring out curses, adjusted his posture and sat up again.
“That cunning X…”
“Your Highness, this is the Raphion Imperial Palace. Please lower your voice.”
Duke Martens said as he sat across from the prince.
“He handed over Bonus.”
“What do you mean?”
“How he schemed against Empress Lionel, he took Bonus as his maid!”
Prince Tesler, drunk and rambling, explained in detail the events that had taken place in the palace.
“Such an incident… has occurred.”
Duke Martens felt secretly delighted.
“The Empress Lionel seems even more cunning, but then again, she lured me with jokes and set traps while laughing slyly. I fell for it innocently. Ah, damn… I didn’t just give in so easily, but damn it!”
“The Emperor seems to have many cunning aspects.”
“You’ve seen it well. The Emperor set traps while laughing with a sly face. I fell for it innocently. Ha, damn… that’s not how it went down easily! Damn it!”
“The Emperor indeed has many cunning traits.”
Duke Martens outwardly pretended to support Prince Tesler, but inwardly, he was reassessing Emperor Lionel.
“What did Zelda say to the Emperor about Bonus?”
“If she only talked about Lady Bonus, it would be fortunate.”
“Ha, he must not have mentioned the term ‘acting empress’ yet.”
Prince Tesler asserted confidently.
“Why are you so sure?”
“Knowing the fact that he deceived himself, there’s no way the Emperor would come out looking so noble. What’s with that woman.”
“Tsk tsk tsk, having such a poor judgment.”
Duke Martens clicked his tongue inwardly.
Since he had never sincerely loved someone, being a calculative person in every aspect, his level of thinking was limited.
“Honestly, using Lady Bonus as a blackmail card was dangerous from the beginning.”
“What?”
“If you accidentally touched the wrong nerve, the Empress’s resistance would have only increased.”
Although Prince Tesler was irritated, he somewhat agreed with the Duke’s opinion.
“Zelda is gradually advancing. All because of someone who enjoys such privileges.”
“She didn’t come here to take the Empress’s position willingly, did she?”
Duke Martens cautiously sided with Zelda.
“If she didn’t want to, she should have cooperated with me to prepare for stepping down from the empress position! Don’t you think?”
“I intended to do that, but unknowingly, she fell in love. So, she wants to stay by the Emperor’s side…”
Duke Martens murmured quietly as if speaking to himself.
“Ridiculous. What love is that? It’s just Zelda. She was satisfied even if I just flashed a slight smile.”
Duke Martens asked with a pitiful look in response to Prince Tesler’s misconception.
“When are you talking about?”
“While living miserably under the persecution of Viscount Toroba, I took her in as a royal maid. And now, she betrays me like this?”
Ignoring Duke Martens’ question as if he hadn’t heard it, Prince Tesler raged alone, filled with anger.
“You originally made an unreasonable request.”
“Martens, let me tell you. Zelda…”
Prince Tesler looked at the Duke with suspicion in his eyes.
“Is she deliberately doing this?”
“What?”
“To draw my attention.”
“How can the flow of consciousness be manipulated in that direction?”
“You don’t know Zelda.”
“…”
Prince Tesler continued, waving his hand in the air.
“I should have just touched her direct Achilles’ heel.”
Prince Tesler stroked his right cheek with his hand, bursting into laughter.
It was the area where Zelda’s burn scar was.
“Now, the Emperor is praising her, saying she’s beautiful. Even after seeing our Empress, how can he say that?”
Duke Martens saw through the prince’s intentions.
“Are you considering cutting off the supply of magic potions?”
“Considering? No.”
Prince Tesler smirked with a strange smile.
It was a facial expression he made whenever he had some hidden intention.
“I am a person whose actions are faster than one might think.”
“What… are you talking about?”
“Things that bother me need to be utterly destroyed! That way, they won’t disturb my peace of mind. Is Ken Kyeong here? Ken Kyeong!”
Prince Tesler, once again ignoring the Duke’s words, muttered to himself and suddenly called for his personal guard.
The bedroom door opened, but instead of Ken Kyeong, another knight entered.
“Why are you here? Where is Ken Kyeong?”
“I apologize, my lord. According to the report, Sir Gen Kyeong has not returned since going out on Prince’s orders this afternoon.”
Upon hearing that Ken Kyeong had gone out, Duke Martens suddenly thought of the magician Vic, who had disappeared without a word during treatment at the ‘Dignified Night’ clinic.
“No way?”
Duke Martens lightly shook his head as if trying to erase the ominous thought he had just recalled.
“Oh, right. I had given some instructions.”
Ignoring the Duke’s words again, Prince Tesler twisted his hair with his fist.
“Then you’ll have to do it.”
