“Now I understand why they say that if someone promising is born, they should be sent to the Empire.”

“Yes, sir…”

“Don’t even think of looking intimidated.”

“Yes.”

As soon as a group of foreigners appeared on the streets of the Imperial City, all eyes turned to them. crystal In a city where even casual clothes were luxuriously made, Yuri’s group—looking like they had just returned from the battlefield—drew obvious attention.

“There should be someone who came to receive us…”

“Chest out and head high. arrow We’re from Briol.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 89: The spirit of the Empire (2) by Indra Translations.

“And you?”

“Ah…”

“S-sorry? audit Y-yes, understood.”

“Don’t make me repeat myself.”

It was a large, luxurious building that stood out. zenith Written in cursive across its gold-adorned walls was “Hotel Duforia.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 89: The spirit of the Empire (2) by Indra Translations.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 89: The spirit of the Empire (2) by Indra Translations.

“What the hell am I thinking…?”

As he recalled the past, Yuri flinched and slapped his cheek.
