“No, why are you here again?”
Ion looked at the three princes with a puzzled expression.
After all, this place is in front of the main palace.
It was a place guarded by royal knights.
If the 3rd Prince had come, he would have known he had come through the knights’ reaction.
However, the third prince was smiling very brightly.
“There is no place I cannot go to in this royal castle. Aww.”
The three princes smiled broadly, saying that they would show all parts of the royal castle.
“Can you help me get out?”
At the smile of the 3rd Prince, Ion frowned slightly.
‘Why are you so kind to me? Is there anything you want?’
Clearly, he hadn’t done this in his previous life.
I just sympathize with you with pitiful eyes.
Therefore, instead of answering, Ian looked at the 3rd Prince suspiciously.
“First of all, I need to hear why you want to help me.”
“What reason do you need to help my cute little brother?”
“But for the other younger brothers…”
“ah. Except for them.”
“········”
Ian sighed. Anyway, I needed help.
“All right. Then I will take care of you for a while and use my brother’s outing permit…”
“Exodus? Why do you need that?”
“Yes?”
Ian felt something ominous, but with it or not, the 3rd Prince took Ion somewhere.
It was none other than the most cornered grassy forest in the royal castle.
Ion was immediately wary of the uninhabited appearance of the place.
“This is the farthest from the main gate.”
No matter how close Galon is, to bring him to such a gloomy place.
‘Are you sure you want to kill me?’
The 3rd Prince is even called the greatest swordsmanship genius among all Kai Stein.
‘After all, I shouldn’t have believed it.’
It was time for Ion to be vigilant and prepare for battle.
“Now, this is the back door. Follow me.”
The 3rd Prince smiled calmly and pushed the grass away.
But soon Ian was at a loss for words.
He had no choice but to do so.
It was a place beyond imagination.
“Isn’t this… a dog hole?”
It was even so low that I had to crawl out.
However, at Ion’s surprise, the 3rd Prince made a triumphant expression on his face.
“Fufu. How was it? This is where I often use it. Isn’t it great too?”
Ion looked at the 3 princes as if he was looking at a madman.
There were certainly no knights around,The hole was also connected to the outside, so it was possible to sneak out without a permit.
Just in case there is a problem.
“The hole is too small.”
At Galon’s displeasure, Ian looked at him in sweat.
Certainly, Ian, who was a young boy, or the 3rd Prince, who was overall on the slender side, didn’t know if it was possible.
But Galon, with his broad shoulders, would be caught in the way.
And how did you accept that dissatisfied voice?
The three princes laughed softly.
“this. If this happens, you and I will have to go outside. Should we go out alone? Sir Gallon tells me to wait here.”
“·················ogue.”
As if for some reason, Ion looked suspiciously at the 3rd Prince.
‘Is it really a reliable partner?’
He was honestly hard to believe.
He is giving a lot of help in this life, but in his previous life, he was a person who almost killed Ian.
Even that Garcia had dropped out of school.
But it was that moment.
Oooh!
Isn’t the ‘belief’ in Ian’s body beating?
It’s like meeting a dear friend.
It was definitely the feeling I felt from the 3rd Prince.
Ian said with a narrowed eyebrow.
“All right. Let’s go together. older brother.”
“Prince? Are you okay?”
Gallon approached him nervously, but Ion nodded his head saying he was fine.
“It has to be done tonight anyway. And there is also Confucius Karan outside.”
In that case, he had the ability to get out of his body alone.
A royal treasure sword and a cloak of floating functions.
At the very least, don’t you have the shoes you got this time?
‘I’m not sure, but I’m curious about the talent I got with incense candles. The talent of swordsmanship may have evolved one step further.’
Anyway, now Ion is in perfect condition to not only run away, but also fight any opponent.
So he didn’t have to worry.
For this reason, Ion, who was looking at the 3rd Prince with a strange gaze, deliberately beckoned to Gallon and said,
“Sir Gallon, please return to the Crystal Palace for now. And check out what Sir Nathan is doing.”
“!”
“I think I heard a story about entering the palace.”
It’s strange that we haven’t been in touch for so long.
But then the three princes laughed.
“If you’re the second son of Marquis Adelas, you think you’re going to the Palace of the First Princess?”
“ah. okay?”
Ian snorted at what he was thinking.
“Then let’s go”
As soon as Ian entered the hole, Galon moved quickly.
*
“Wow.”
Ian, who came out of the dog hole, couldn’t help but doubt my eyes.
It was because of the buildings in front of them.
“here is···”
Outside the hole was a village several kilometers away.
It’s also a slum.
So I turned my head in a hurry, and there was a royal castle a few kilometers away.
So Ian had no choice but to be surprised.
‘The dog hole was just a span away.’
But is it connected to the inside of the village as if it were teleportation?
But that was not the only surprise.
slurp
The hole that had just come out was disappearing.
At that scene, Ion showed his murderous intent and saw the three princes.
“Are you sure you deceived me and led me to the slum?”
As Ion drew his sword, the 3rd Prince raised his hands as if he had no intention of doing so.
“Hey, you’re Yuin. come closer again It will open.”
“!”
It really was.
As Ion approached the wall, the dog hole appeared again.
And at the startled Ion, the 3rd Prince smiled.
“It seems to be a dog hole that was created in ancient times for the royal family. There were people like us among our ancestors.”
“!?”
In a word, it meant that it was a hole that opened in response to the blood of the royal family. Of course, the location of each royal family is different, so even the story of finding yours.Soon, Ian’s eyes changed.
‘Is this going to be useful?’
I had no choice but to do so.
It even came to the back alleys of the royal capital far away from the royal castle. It’s like a top-notch magic tool. If you open it there, it seems like it will lead to another place.
Because of this, the 3 princes who gave such valuable information were rather surprising. Because it was advanced information that Ion did not know about in the past.
Of course, it wasn’t without its absurdity.
‘It’s the King Seonjo who made this hole for his own entertainment.’
What the hell are you doing?
Of course, that wasn’t the point now.
Beep!
A loud noise was heard along with a whistle.
“There it is! That blue hair!”
“You bastard who robbed our gambling house!”
“They stole stuff from the auction house! Be sure to catch the guy. We need to retrieve the item!”
“?!”
Suddenly, men came out of the back alley.
As if waiting for the 3rd Prince to appear from here, isn’t he grinding his teeth and running?
Ion was embarrassed and had no choice but to see the 3rd Prince.
“Ton, brother?”
“Ah. sorry. You forgot to change your face.”
“No, what the hell are you doing out there!”
“Hey, I was just getting some air.”
The 3rd Prince raised his sword with a smile.
Ian was perplexed, but thought it didn’t matter.
It was an opportunity to see the skills of the three princes, who were always called the sword geniuses.
‘Maybe we can find any weaknesses.’
But it was then.
gully
“That guy is one! Don’t let me live!”
“?!”
Windows in the distance opened and bows poured out.
And it was a bolt flying like it would pierce Ion’s head at any moment.
It was the moment Ian wanted to miss.
Whirlik.
“!”
The tip of Ion’s cloak moved on its own and grabbed the bolt.
The men were startled and couldn’t close their mouths.
“Ugh? What is that!”
“Did the cloak catch the arrow now?”
Even Ion, who tried to strike the bolt with his sword, was surprised.
‘I’m sure there will be an effect of
No, for some reason, the more I met the enemy, the more the relics became more new from antiques. But Ian didn’t seem to care, and he sprinted to the ground right away.
“I blocked you, so this is your teacher. older brother.”
“OK. Thank you.”
At the same time, an amazing thing happened.
phut!
As if stepping on the air, Ion flew through the air.
[Air Walker]
Those were none other than the shoes of the first king.
And Ion, who flew up in an instant, swung his sword towards the men in the window.
spatula
In an instant, the men’s bows and crossbows were cut.
The men hurriedly shouted.
“I… get that guy first!”
“I can’t catch it flying! Besides, it doesn’t even go through arrows!”
That was true.
Due to the effect of the cloak’s
And Ion flew quickly and smashed the enemy’s weapons first.
Quick!
Even if they were pursuers, most of them were gangsters, so it wasn’t that difficult to steal weapons.
However, the 3 princes, who were actually wielding the sword, were looking at Ion strangely.
‘That guy. Where else did you get those shoes?’
Obviously, the only thing brought from the ordeal was the cloak.
However, the shoes also appear to be belongings of the first king.
‘Besides, the fighting form is pretty good.’
When I caught the ordeal monster, I thought it was a fluke that relied on sword ore.
and how long has it been
“Do.. run away!”
“Retreat at once!”
As the enemies fled, Ion also descended to the ground.
But his gaze turned to the third prince.
‘It’s also a genius of swords.’
Although he was dealing with ranged weapons, he faced dozens of opponents.
Even if I breathe, it’s not roughDany. Even in that situation, no one died.
And in that way, the successors looked at each other as if they were vigilant and grasping each other’s hand.
Eyes met, Ian turned around without hesitation.
“Then I’ll just go.”
“Would it be dangerous to be alone?”
“I do not know. It seems like it would be ten million times more dangerous to go with my brother here.”
The 3rd Prince seemed to be shocked by the bone-studded words, but Ion calmly ripped off the man’s robe. It was because he needed to disguise himself to wander around his back alleys.
But before Ian left.
“Be careful. It seems that the 2nd Prince brother visited the 1st Knights. To get revenge on you.”
The 3rd Prince had a genuinely worried expression on his face.
And when Ion left, strange smoke rose from behind the 3rd Prince.
[master]
The three princes smiled happily at the voices heard in the dark.
“How could some of them be non-villages?”
[Yes. He felt a familiar aura among them.]
“Well, it must be one of the forces trying to contain me.”
The 3rd Prince tried to pursue Ion without any hesitation.
He pretended to let him go, but well. He had planned to follow Ian from the beginning.
The reason was simple. The first was because I was curious about where the younger brother who came to the castle for the first time would visit this night.
second is..
‘The youngest kept getting something valuable. She must have a secret.’
The voice was heard again towards the three princes who raised the corners of their mouths like that.
[Shall we take care of the 7 princes here? It would be easier to deal with now.]
That was then. As if when the 3rd Prince laughed, he murmured coldly.
“I would have told you to leave my brother alone.”
[However, my lord. The 7th Prince is definitely a target of threats in the future…]
“Don’t make me say it twice.”
His voice trembled at the lifeless words of the 3rd Prince.
[number of people. I will accept Master]
3 The prince smiled again with a mischievous smile and moved on.
It’s about chasing Ian. Unlike Ian, who does not yet have a servant comparable to the Shadow Bell, it was not difficult for the 3rd Prince.
That was the moment I was about to step back.
“Where are you going?”
Someone stopped him.
And they were none other than the knights who covered their faces.
“Ha … Lee hyung is really good at annoying things.”
They were none other than the 2nd Prince’s escorts. At the same time, they will be those who aim for Ion.
So the third prince looked at them with cold eyes.
“What. Without taking care of my brother who had his arm cut off.”
“Your Majesty asked me to tell you. Why do you keep helping such a genius?”
“It’s cheeky. Wouldn’t it be that you guys are not part-timers?”
“It is better not to do anything you will regret. Soon the prince will be moving with Lavaltor in the lead. If you want to be treated together…”
The 3rd Prince burst out laughing as if it was absurd.
He is himself. He is rarely in the palace, so he must have been waiting all the time on the road he frequented, but …
“You must be in a lot of hurry because of the youngest.”
“I would like to inform you that there was no intention to negotiate. then…”
“the year before? Do you think you will be able to come back alive?”
In an instant, a silent scream began to resound through the back alley.
*
While the 3rd Prince is fighting the 2nd Prince’s forces.
“Is this this way?”
Ian was passing the back alley.
It was the first time I had been out of the city alone like this, but it was because I had also experienced the back alleys of the royal capital for the first time.
But he didn’t get lost.
Probably, the letter Karan sent through a messenger was pointing in the right direction.
So he was curious.
‘This must be a paper used in the Magic Continent.. How did Karan have it?’
I’ve seen this before in my previous life.
But that was just before Ian died. It was about the end of the war in the ranks of the kingdom. At that time, the trade route with the Magic Continent opened and the goods came in.
But that wasn’t the point now.
[Black Rose Bar]
Ion had finally reached where Karan pointed out.
He went inside without hesitation.
quiver
Is it not painted well? The door was stiff. Besides, there were few people inside.
There are only people with rough faces that look like mercenaries.
Ian approached the man who appeared to be the bartender.
“welcome. What do you need?”
But Ian didn’t say anything.
I just took out the paper that Karan had sent me and put it on the table.
The bartender’s eyes widened slightly.
“You seem to be the Master’s guest. This is it.”
Ian followed the instructions and went down to the basement.
When the bartender pressed a certain part of the underground wine cellar, a secret passage was revealed.
However.
“Eupeup”
There is Karan tied to his chair.
furthermore.
“Do not move.”
“!”
snuggle
The bartender, who had guided Ion so far, pointed a dagger at Karan’s neck.
And Ian could only see it then.
A woman sitting across from Karan.
She was glaring at Ian with terrifying eyes.
But she did something strange.
Uh!
It was definitely the nostalgia I felt for the 3rd Prince.
She had a feeling in her that she somehow felt like her companion.
But she seemed to be aiming for Kaistein. In fact, Karan was also in danger of being killed.
and.
“If you want to save him, you’d better put down your weapons. Dirty Kaistein.”
Karan looked at her Ian as if begging her to live.
But it was then.
“Nope?”
“What?”
“Prince?”
Leaving behind the bewildered woman and Karan, whose mouth had been gagged by her desperate struggle.
Ian gave an evil smile.
“Killing or not, that has nothing to do with me. Shall we talk about our stuff first?”
“I am the prince!”
Only Karan was howling.
