"Did you really raise your eyes..."

Arnold said so with a slight tremor in his voice.

I don't think I'm going to get that far, and I know what it's like to suspect that he's lying even if he says so.

It was unexpected that Alicia raised her eyes to Jicha, too.

"The other guy."

"Maybe you know best, don't you?

That's what I said as I stared at the king.

He doesn't know what I'm talking about and frowns.

"Should I keep the trash for the trash? Didn't you realize those garbages were overflowing?

"Jill, keep it around there. My father just followed my grandmother."

Duke said that to me in a small voice in a voice no one could hear.

"My grandmother."

Of the concubine? I almost said, I stopped. Cather Liz and the others do not know that the mother of the present king is a concubine.

... What do you mean?

I knew that the former king and the former queen had died, but there is no information on the table that the concubine has died. And he's not even out alive.

"I'll tell you more later"

I followed Duke and shut my mouth to say nothing more.

"I'm going to go back a little bit. I am not going to go to war. But I don't know what's in the world. It's natural to be fully prepared for that. If they attack a country full of weak soldiers, it's over. We should step up our force."

That's what Duke said to everyone. His words change everyone's expression. My heart is moving.

Maybe it's the prince who can solve the enchanting magic of Cather Liz.... Is that so?

"War is not good, but war brings development. I will develop this country."

His eyes are not those of a prince who is in extreme ease, but of a staff member who thinks about the future of the country.

Everyone is nailed and fascinated by Duke's glowing, strong eyes.

"That ambition leads to strife and ruin."

"Then invest in diplomacy."

Duke looks sharply at Cather Liz. She shivers her body in a freak.

... You're not half her mental strength to still like Duke even when you're seen like this.

"King, if you can kill a large number of human beings with one decision, you can save a large number of human beings. … make no mistake in exercising that power"

He shifts his gaze to the king, leaving all that behind, trying to leave the spot.

Oh, you're leaving already?

I try to run after him. [M] Duke and I have different legs, so think about it and walk.

As soon as we tried to leave, we heard the king from behind.

"When did I make a mistake"

Duke stops and looks back at the king.

I can see the air straining.

"You wasted all the talent that was beneficial to this country."

I could see how hah surprised the king was as he remembered something in Duke's words.

I guess he has an idea for himself, and he shouldn't be retarded.... but the mastermind is not the king.

That doesn't mean it's his mother. I don't think I can do that much with the presence of a concubine.

This time, none of the parents of the five nobles has uttered a word but Albert.

There's definitely something behind it.

"Jill."

The king calls my name in a soft voice.

"Alicia wants me to tell you who she gave her own eyes to"

I took a breath and opened my mouth.

"Seeker Will"
