Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1)

“Yuri! ability Is it true you’re joining the military alliance?”

“What’s the matter? amateur You didn’t even want to come here.”

“Why not me?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“What are you saying? adapt Knowing you’re going actually puts me at ease.”

“Did you come because you’re worried?”

“Oh, that?”

Yuri smiled.

‘The duty of royalty.’

Yuri, who had returned to the spring of his thirteenth year, had lived a very different life since. matrix Not only did he train diligently, but he also showed tolerance to those around him. harbor He had given books to Joshua and urged him to study. crystal When Joshua asked why he was doing something so uncharacteristic, Yuri answered with just one phrase:

A phrase tossed out lazily because he didn’t want to explain, but it left a deep impression on Joshua.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“Alright. shadow Yuri, today I understood your intentions.”

“Well, that’s not entirely wrong…”

“Today?”

“Until now, I just thought you wanted to annoy me.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“I hope you return safely. arctic In the meantime, I’ll protect the palace.”

Joshua ignored the comment.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“Just be warned: orcs are tough opponents. altitude Stronger and viler than you expect.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“What does that mean?”

“And if you see an orc carrying a flag on its back, be careful.”

Yuri had also encountered orcs in his previous life. shadow They were twice the size of humans and committed every kind of atrocity without hesitation.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

Yuri knew their name.

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“And though it may not be my place to say this…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“Say it.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

Yuri turned to Bernard.

“How should I know?”

“Alright.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“I’ll have to leave it for today.”

“You brought clothes?”

“Put these on.”

“Of course. agent It’s not proper to meet a guest smelling like sweat.”

“Here you go.”

Yuri frowned.

“Thank you. beacon Hehe…”

“Can Your Highness see the future or something?”

“Is there going to be a war?”

“To the military alliance.”

“Even seasoned knights avoid fighting orcs. antenna And Your Highness…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“I know… of course I know…”

“Who do you think you’re underestimating? amber I’m Yuri Briol.”

His concern was understandable. attic Until now, Yuri had kept his strength a secret. autumn Only the palace guards knew the truth, so to an outsider, his participation seemed reckless.

Yuri stood and gave Guillermo a kick on the rear.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“That’s all you came to tell me?”

“Then spit it out already.”

“No, there’s something else.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“The item you talked about last time… I got it.”

“It wasn’t easy to get. arcade I had to work hard.”

With a triumphant expression, Guillermo unwrapped it.

“Is this really that valuable?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

While Guillermo grumbled, one of the blades pointed toward his face.

“It took a lot to bring them here. admire The Empire is so tense I couldn’t get used to it. portal And they just look like decorative daggers…”

And Yuri had obtained them for a ridiculously low price.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“It’s an artifact, yes—but it doesn’t fly by itself.”

“Then why…?”

“An artifact that floats?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

Controlling an object with mana wasn’t possible without an extreme level of mastery.

“No way… Your Highness…?”

Guillermo couldn’t see it, but Yuri was now connected to the dagger through mana.

Even Guillermo, who knew nothing about swordsmanship, realized this was an extraordinary technique.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

He fell out of his chair.

“Waaah!”

The floating dagger suddenly spun and flew at Guillermo hilt-first.

“Is this a joke?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“It won’t kill you.”

Yuri stowed the four daggers while laughing. echo Guillermo got up mumbling.

“Ah…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“Good heavens… I didn’t know His Highness was this strong.”

“Yes…”

“Did you think I just lazed around every day?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“How’s the preparation of the imperial branch going?”

“Guillermo.”

Over the past five years, he had quietly cultivated his power. meadow He endured all sorts of absurd rumors. august It was all in preparation for the Military Alliance.

“Yes.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“Ah, yes. sphere Of course. altitude I’m following your instructions exactly.”

Whatever burden came with it, he wouldn’t run away.

“Trust me.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“Yes.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“I trust you. abandon But not just Your Highness.”

“Then what?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

“Haven’t seen her in a while…”

They exchanged smiles.

“Give my regards to Elaine.”

“Well, I’ve finished my business here, so I’ll take my leave.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.

Guillermo bowed and left the room. sphere Yuri sat in silence a moment after his departure.

“You can come out now.”

At some point, someone had been in the corner of the room. agent It was like an optical illusion. amber Nothing… and then suddenly, there was something.

Because Guillermo wasn’t the only visitor.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 18: The Military Alliance (1) by Indra Translations.
