The eminence of a true king

Chapter 74: CHAPTER 74: The king's suffering



In the king's office.

King Orphans Il Palettia, was enjoying a rare moment of peace after dealing with government matters for a day. He was holding a cup of wolfberry tea in his hand, staring at the ceiling and emptying his mind.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

"Oh, you're here, Grantz. Talk to me a little/Tell me your bitterness, my friend."

"Yeah, no... Right, Orphans."

The silver-haired man who entered the office nodded slightly, and immediately the feeling of distance between the two disappeared, and the relationship between monarch and subject turned into the atmosphere of good friends.

Grantz Magenta, the prime minister of this kingdom, is also King Orphans' best friend during his prince days, and the most loyal minister.

"My stupid daughter has caused a lot of trouble lately. I'm so tired. They're both girls and the same age, so why is there such a big gap between Anisphia and your Euphilia?"

"I think Princess Anisphia is a lot like Her Majesty when she was young... Please don't make that expression, I'm serious."

"No, don't say that. Even if it's true, I won't admit it."

The king covered his face with his hands and looked exhausted.

He took a sip of tea and then changed his posture, looking at his close friend with a hint of apology in his expression.

"I'm sorry to say that I forced you into the engagement. I know you didn't want to force Euphilia to get married, right?"

"Yes, I originally wanted to support the second prince, His Highness Leon, but... hehe, that prince doesn't seem to need my support."

The Prime Minister sighed.

"Please don't say that outside. Hey, I thought that, unlike Anisphia, he was a kid who could make me feel at ease. But I didn't expect him to do something like that."

Orphans showed an extremely complicated expression.

"They actually completely eradicated the [cult] of Palletia. This kind of thing is just unbelievable. I really don't know how Leon did it. These cancers have been secretly eating away at our country for hundreds of years."

"Yes, second prince Leon's strength is incredible. If he was the queen's son, then there was no need to worry about anything."

Grantz nodded seriously and regretfully.

As Leon speculated before, the king actually knew about Diablos' cult.

At the same time, he also paid close attention to this organization that was secretly trying to poison the kingdom this entire time.

Therefore, he also discovered that an organization had recently appeared out of nowhere, ending the diablos cult and almost completely eradicating it from the country.

Orphans even vaguely guessed that this was a force formed by Leon, which was why he didn't do anything and pretended that he couldn't do anything.

"And he has also shown interest in the throne. Hey, combined with the achievements he has made in recent years, this child is too good. Honestly, Algard is completely incapable of competing with him."

"Yes, His Majesty Algard alone cannot defeat His Majesty Leon, not even with his support, I believe that was why his majesty 'forced' me to marry Euphilia to him."

"I'm sorry, Grantz."

"It is an honor for our family to serve the royal family."

"Thank you, but this is my last support for Algard. What happens after this is his business. Whether he can maintain his inheritance right will completely depend on him."

Orphans said with a sigh.

After all, it's his and the queen's son.

And he put a lot of effort into it. He planned to train him to be a king from the moment he was born, so even if he finds out that he has no talent now, he doesn't want to give up easily.

At least he can become an ordinary king.

Grants hesitated to speak

He wanted to say not to have high expectations in Algard.

Even if the third prince has the support of his daughter and family, the chances of victory against Prince Leon will not be greater than 20% at most."

"Anyway, let's take it one step at a time."

"Yes, let's see what happens now."

KNOW~ KNOW~ KNOW~

At this time, there was a loud knock on the office door, and the guard knight rushed over in panic and said with an indescribable subtle expression.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something bad has happened! Prince Leon and Princess Anisphia have arrived, and they have brought..."

"What! What happened? What did these two do this time?!"

Orphans' face contorted.

A strong bad feeling came over him.

Grantz also reacted immediately.

"Guard, call the doctor to standby!"

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, should I call a cardiologist or a gastroenterologist?"

"Idiot, think about it with your common sense. This time, the prince and princess are here together. His Majesty's heart and stomach will undoubtedly be challenged, so invite the two doctors!"

"Yes! I mean, Understood!"

The knight cursed himself for his stupidity.

When Anisphia came they had to call the gastrologist.

When Leon came they had to call the cardiologist.

This is already a common practice, but now that the two of them are here together, of course they have to shout together!

On the other side, the king almost instinctively took out the heart and stomach medicines that were always available from the drawer, and was prepared to listen to the report of the commotion caused by the two and then faint.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the King's "life-saving medicine", but when he discovered that the producers of this medicine were also Leon and Anis, he almost fainted.

The person responsible for healing him and the person responsible for making him feel uncomfortable are the same people. This is simply...

"Dad, good night!" x2

Leon, Anis and Euphilia went to the king's office.

"What's going on? Have you caused trouble again? This time, Euphilia is also involved... Wait, why is Euphilia here? Shouldn't she be at the dinner announcing her engagement to Algard?!"

The King, who suddenly discovered the key point, felt a dull pain in his abdomen and wanted to escape the next reality if possible.

Human beings can escape anything, but they cannot escape reality.

"Well, it would be too complicated to explain, so I'll simply say... Algard announced his broken engagement in public, and so I taught him a lesson and took his fiancée away."

"Ahhhhhhhhh!!!"

The King fell.

If he could escape reality like this, maybe this fainting would also be a kind of happiness, but it's a shame that the strongest wizard in the kingdom is here.

Leon directly used the most advanced healing magic to force Orphans to wake up from her coma and face reality.

"Give me a detailed explanation of what happened."

"Okay, but I suggest you, dad, take the medicine first because there are too many twists and turns and it will be too late for it to take effect later."

"!@#¥%..."

Orphans took a deep breath and realized that this might be the biggest problem he would have to face so far, so he took two sips of the medicine without hesitation.

A few minutes later, the King, with pale skin, covered his stomach with one hand and banged his fist on the table with the other.

"Breaking off the engagement in public? Algard, what the hell is this idiot thinking!!" Orphans held his head in his hands.

He felt like he was going to have a terrible nightmare tonight.

Breaking the engagement, declaring a fight for the throne, the public trial...

Each of them would be an almost invincible problem if faced alone, but now they are united to attack you.

The king fell into isolation.

Why did I have three children in the first place?

Why won't he allow me to have peace of mind!

The king looked at the two children in front of him, with some dark emotions hidden in his eyes, as if he was saying, "I should have put you in some orphanage!"
