Ever since the Allied Army’s expedition concluded, stories about the Third Prince of Briol were told again and again. arctic Accounts of how, at eighteen, he had bravely fought orcs, his handsome appearance, and testimonies claiming his abilities far exceeded what had been reported, were enough to keep the gossips busy.

“I heard something.”

“Why would he do something like that?”

The testimony of a few witnesses had already spread throughout the Imperial City.

“A noble from Briol, then?”

Someone spoke, taking advantage of everyone’s curiosity.

“They say the person the prince threw down was a foreign student from Briol.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“Did they have a bad relationship?”

“I don’t know their personal connection, but a servant of a friend of mine, who happened to be nearby, told me this.”

“Of course. beacon It’s just what I was told, but if it’s useful to you…”

After all, he broke a window and tossed someone out. echo It wasn’t exactly a sensible response.

“But throwing him from a second floor… isn’t that a bit too rough to call it a rescue?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“That’s why he stood out in the war.”

“In any case, if it’s true it was because of drugs…”

“Seems so. avalanche Whatever the case, the Third Prince of Briol doesn’t seem like someone who holds back. canvas And he’s so young.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

The party guests were already exaggerating the story among themselves. action That conversation would soon turn into rumors spreading across the city in many forms.

“At least it’s clear that the Third Prince cares even about foreign students. crystal Seems he’s not just a strong young man who fights well.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

Yuri, completely unaware of all that, was sound asleep at the Duforia Hotel.

Laurent, who knew nothing about what had happened the previous night, knocked on the door.

“Mmm…”

“Your Highness.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“May I come in?”

Yuri responded with a sleepy mumble. antique Laurent opened the door and walked in.

“Mmm…”

“Ah, he’s sleeping.”

“He looked like an undead, just like the rumors say.”

“I’m alive.”

“Hmm?”

“And last night? amateur Where did you go?”

Laurent tilted his head. autumn He knew Yuri was supposed to meet with Dale at dusk, but suddenly, he just left a note.

“Going to inspect the city. audit If I take long, go ahead and sleep.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

But now, seeing him in the morning, Yuri looked exhausted.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“You know, I just want to be a sword.”

“Laurent.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“That’s why I say taking care of brats isn’t for me.”

“A sword that protects Briol from the shadows while Cedric rules. alien That only moves when there’s trouble, to pierce the enemy.”

“And so it shall be, Your Highness.”

“A sword?”

“What kind of response is that…?”

“Have you had a child?”

“No.”

“Congratulations!”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“Maybe people nowadays are just too delicate…”

Yuri sighed.

“It’s just that there are so many adults who don’t know how to take care of themselves… that’s why I end up exhausted.”

Though when he remembered his past life, he felt he had once been like that himself, he chose to set the blame aside and keep talking.

“Do you know Got Barkbar?”

“Why are you asking about him?”

Laurent was someone with recognized talent across the continent. adopt If he said Got wasn’t bad, then he must have had some skill.

Yuri was satisfied with his decision from the previous night.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“We’ll go see him later.”

“He’s a student at the Academium.”

“He’s in the city?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“Let’s talk over breakfast.”

“Really?”

Yuri sat up completely, gripping Laurent’s shoulder.

The chairs were adorned with golden carvings on the backrests, and a massive crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling, one that would require the arms of at least three grown men to surround.

“As you wish.”

The place had a luxurious feel.

Together with Laurent, Yuri left the room and headed to the first-floor dining room. acoustic The Duforia Hotel offered a buffet breakfast. zenith They sat at any available table.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

When they saw Yuri appear, they bowed slightly in respect. portal Yuri returned the greeting with a lazy wave of his hand.

Yuri and Laurent served themselves and returned to the table. action Laurent asked:

“Leave him. galaxy He doesn’t qualify as an escort anymore.”

“Yes. anchor Do you want me to wake him?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“So, what happened last night?”

“You see…”

While bringing a piece of meat to his mouth, Yuri explained what had happened the previous night.

Yuri had no intention of complicating things—especially now that he had reached the heart of the Empire. alpha He didn’t know what Edran’s intentions were in orchestrating all of this, but he simply acted according to the law.

“And what did you do, Your Highness?”

“I took care of it all.”

When Yuri mentioned that Got was on drugs, Laurent’s gaze turned icy.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“Ah… I see.”

“Well done.”

“I dragged him there in the middle of the night and threw him inside. portal They were startled, but in the end, I persuaded them properly. beacon As always, the temple does anything if there’s money involved.”

Laurent relaxed his expression.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

Now Got would go through a rehabilitation process to free himself from his addiction.

If he tried to handle it in the shadows, things would only get messier. acid Being on foreign soil, Yuri chose to deal with everything straightforwardly.

“At dawn, the guards will investigate the origin of the drug. zenith That bastard Edran surely has backing, so he won’t be arrested right away, but whatever.”

Those with nothing to hide have no need to act in the dark.

“What is this? alpha It has quite a particular taste.”

Yuri and Laurent turned their heads. legend A man eating quietly near them gave a faint smile and spoke again:

“Cilantro…”

“It’s called cilantro. atomic Some people can’t stand it.”

“Very likely.”

“I don’t know.”

“I’m not particularly thrilled about that idea.”

“I’m still thinking about it.”

He kept a respectful distance and spoke with a smile.

“That’s right.”

“A newspaper.”

“What is it?”

“It’s the work of an artist known for his speed. galaxy He’s our exclusive illustrator.”

“That’s a great illustration.”

“Oh…”

“I apologize for publishing an article about Your Highness without prior notice. wizard But at the Imperial Capital Daily, we prioritize citizens’ right to information. aspect Even the crown prince is a regular reader of our paper.”

The rest of the article was more of a personal opinion from the journalist.

In fact, there were barely any details. canvas It simply said that someone fell through a second-story window and that the Third Prince of Briol dragged him away. adapt And that the person who fell seemed to be under the influence of some drug.

That was all.

Yuri thought for a moment and then nodded.

“Hmm…”

“No problem. altitude You did well.”

“Eil. voyage I’m a reporter for the Imperial Capital Daily. adjust Here’s my card.”

“What’s your name?”

“Do you really think so?”

“Of course.”

“I think we might become friends while I’m in the capital.”

“Then I’ll write down what you say.”

“Can we keep talking while I eat?”

“You won’t twist my words, right?”

“Of course.”

“I’m glad we think alike.”

Yuri took a bite of the cilantro-seasoned meat dish and began to speak calmly.

“Never. arch I wouldn’t want to make an enemy of Your Highness. meadow Besides, I hope to see you again in the future.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 93: A Minor Sin (3) by Indra Translations.

“Yes, Got Bakbar. acid That guy, in reality…”

Yuri wore a sad expression.

“The guy I slammed to the ground yesterday… well, that guy was…”

“He was a very close friend of mine.”
