Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned! - Chapter 532
Episode 532
158. Black people under the water (1)
A birthday banquet is held for concubine Anisha, who is the first concubine and the biological mother of twin siblings Barris and Winry.
No, she was no longer a concubine, but the third queen of the Raun Kingdom.
It cannot be small in scale as it is the birthday banquet for Queen Anisha, the most noble first lady in the royal palace’s internal affairs, excluding the current king.
Perhaps many nobles and collateral royals will gather.
Of course, I don’t like that banquet very much.
From the outside, it looks quite bright and harmonious, but in fact, in a place where political issues are intertwined, only the outside is gorgeous, but the inside is no different from a battlefield where a fight breaks out at any time.
Of course, men have fewer problems in the process.
This is because their fights often take place at the National Assembly, not at social churches.
but.
The story is bound to be different for women whose social gatherings are a battlefield and where dresses, makeup, and accessories are weapons.
All of them implicitly condone competition and checks in the social church.
reason?
Because it is considered to be a method of self-help.
If the husband asserts his position outside, the wife builds momentum in social circles for her husband and family and adds strength by making connections.
The case has been maintained for a long time, and the kingdom of Raun is no different.
The current Queen Anisha was not a person with a lot of ambition even if she evaluated it coldly.
Originally, she was not greedy for the position of queen, but after the death of the previous queen of King Crianes, Queen Lines, who took power, also committed suicide, so the position returned to her.
Of course, her foundation is very weak, but Davy gave up the throne and drove everything to Baris.
From the point of view of the second concubine, it has reached a situation where it is impossible to confront.
When the tiger goes, the fox becomes the king of the den.
It was the present Raun Kingdom that the high-powered aristocratic faction collapsed and the state affairs that had been shaken in the meantime were stabilized thanks to the efforts of the royalist faction and Anisha’s concubine, or the queen’s side.
Of course, it is true that the speed of recovery has accelerated because the national treasury is incomparable to the previous level.
Since I officially attended the Raun Kingdom State Council the other day, I have practically never returned to the royal castle.
Because of that, in fact, I am quite a floating existence in the royal castle.
The reason why it has an overwhelming position nonetheless. The reason why people startled at the mention of his name was simple.
It must be because he has done so many things.
No one could reveal it openly, but the fear in his eyes was clearly visible.
In any case, there is extremely little participation in social circles, and since each participating social circle caused a riot, there is no way rumors will spread properly.
Span!!!
As the air tore open and I revealed myself, eyes began pouring in from the surroundings looking at me as if in amazement.
But soon, as soon as our eyes met, I lowered my head and ran away as if avoiding it.
“Tsk tsk. Actually, foreign countries want you, but you are treated like a ghost in your own country.”
And Perserk, who appeared after me, pulled on a banquet robe and put on a hood to joke around.
“It’s about people living kindly.”
“Live kindly for someone to like.”
At my complaint, she smiled mischievously and looked around.
Then, looking at me with a supple expression, he put his hands behind his back and slowly circled around me.
I felt grumpy for no reason at that low gaze looking up at me as if teasing me.
“Hmm…”
“You seem to have a lot to say?”
“Aren’t you curious about how rumors spread about you in this castle?”
There are many names that refer to me on the continent. However, the rumors that spread to me in the Raun Kingdom and within the capital couldn’t be said to be good even with empty words.
Even the emperor of the empire curses in places where he can’t be seen.
The blood-mad prince.
disgusting ugly man.
Well, there are various types, but rumors are fleshing out and biting their tails, and in fact, I can’t help but look at my reputation in the capital.
Rumors, originally, are inevitably exaggerated because they have gained weight, but if not, there is no way smoke will come out of the chimney.
In fact, it is true that in the process of reforming the kingdom of Raun, I had purged bloody tyrants.
Those who were victimized by me continued to spread extremely bad rumors about me for the purpose of revenge.
As a result, the present me appeared.
“I’d rather the rumor spread.”
Because there won’t be people who do useless things.
“Are you ready?”
“The original woman is thrilled.”
She laughs softly and says playfully.
“I’m telling you. Whoever threatens you or talks bullshit, I promise you, you won’t die gracefully.”
At my words, she chuckled and turned her back on me.
Then he waved his hand lightly as he walked toward the entrance to the great banquet hall.
wheeing….
at the same time.
A light breeze blew her hood gently back, and in the aftermath her face and silver hair, hidden under the hood, fluttered in the air.
The surrounding sounds and atmosphere began to subside in an instant.
Those who pretended not to talk among themselves quickly became silent and fixed their eyes.
overwhelming silence.
It has to be.
Perserk basically went around with me without any problems.
In fact, her beauty was alarming itself, saying that it appears once in a thousand years and causes the country to stumble.
And Perserk, the main culprit that caused this situation, looked at me with a very pretty and mischievous smile and said,
“Then, Prince. Please escort me.”
“Believe me.”
I took my outstretched hand, responded to her smiling brightly, and moved on.
Then he opened his mouth.
“shrift.”
The servant, who had been mesmerized by seeing Perserk in a low and quiet tone, widened his eyes and was startled.
“I’m sorry! There are many lives…”
I reached out my hand and tapped him on the shoulder at the trembling servant’s words.
“Confess it because it’s done.”
“Yes… Yes!”
He thought he would die because of his mistake, but when I didn’t do anything, he looked at me as if he was a little puzzled and cleared his throat.
“1 1 Prince Davy Olaun and his partner Perserk are here!!”
With that cry, the noise inside the banquet hall subtly disappeared.
As if everyone had been waiting, they began to look away. The main character of the banquet is none other than the current queen Anisha.
However, those in the know seemed to be quite interested in the sudden appearance of Perserk.
Those who quickly turn their eyes and look at them are all important officials leading this country.
Of course, if I get caught by them, it won’t be a problem, but as much as it’s directly related to face, I’ll feel a lot of pressure.
She just smiled brightly.
one foot two feet. The inside of the banquet hall, which she slowly entered, was enveloped in silence just by the fact that she appeared.
Only the sound of small shoes ringing loudly resonated, so what should I say?
The baseline pressure was over.
Singing joy in my heart, I stepped forward with Perserk accompanying me, and bowed my head towards King Crianes, who looked at me silently, and Queen Anisha, who gave me a weak but bright smile.
“First Prince Davy Olaun and his betrothed, Perserk, meet the sun of the kingdom.”
They said they had never posted a formal engagement ceremony, but it didn’t matter.
Because it’s just a simple form.
“Welcome.”
King Crianes, who was looking at me, quietly closed his eyes, inhaled and exhaled.
There was relief in that deep breath.
* * *
An appearance that overwhelms the crowd.
There was no special directing or incident.
It simply appeared, but it attracted the attention of the audience.
It was actually a dream-like situation for women who show off their beauty.
It is not easy for even the most beautiful woman to show off her beauty that overwhelms the crowd.
“My God… you are such a wonderful person.”
“I heard that he’s a blood-crazed maniac…
”
I hear the murmurs of young girls.
“That… the daughter of the Duke of Yurbara?”
A little girl with blonde hair in a pink dress carefully called out a girl with black hair.
“…”
“Are you okay, Princess Yurbara?”
“…Ah yes. I was lost in the beauty for a moment.”
Although he said it calmly, Yurbara’s gaze was only fixed on Davy and Perserk.
“I see. That woman…”
“She’s very beautiful. Actually, I’m really surprised. I’m sure I’ll fall in love with Prince Davy.”
Yurubara nodded at Cecily’s calm words.
Rumors about Davy were rife with fear, but it was true that the young ladies saw Davy as an opportunity for a significant career advancement.
“God, I never thought he would be such a fine and wonderful person… I can’t believe the rumors here.”
“That’s right. In fact, when my father said he would ask the royal family to marry Prince Davy, I shouldn’t have refused…” “Oh, sorry
. Are you saying it could have been a young lady?”
“Why not?”
I don’t even think of anyone to give me meat, but it’s funny how they chew and swallow it from the digestive tract.
At Yurubara’s cynicism, Cecily, one of her aides, cleared her throat uncomfortably.
Then, the eyes of the ladies sitting at the table all turned to the princess of Yurubara.
“He hasn’t been married yet. You’ll be socializing at our table for the duration of the banquet. Let’s make sure to welcome the newcomer.”
As Cecily agreed with the words of the daughter of Duke Yurubara, the other young ladies quickly agreed one by one.
The daughter of Duke Yurbara.
In fact, it was safe to say that she was the venue for a social gathering for young ladies who were currently unmarried.
Originally, the story would be different if there were Winna or Eonisha Tanya, who were members of the royal family.
However, Winry and Tanya were not interested in how the social church went on, and Eonisha was young enough to not even debut, so in fact, no one had the power to follow the princess of Duke Yurbara in the gathering of unmarried ladies. It was free to look at.
In fact, the lady of the Duke of Yurbara had received a lot of power, jealousy, and envy as a powerful member of this group for several years.
It was a position that those who were born as noble ladies inevitably longed for, and it was also a position they desired.
“I have prepared a small but present for the queen.”
Eventually, when Davy takes out a small box from inside her arms and hands it out to Queen Anisha, the eyes of the young ladies are startled.
“A ring called Moonlight Tears.”
At those words, the eyes of the young ladies stood out.
“If it’s all moonlight tears…”
Then he couldn’t hide his surprise. In the case of noble men, most of them did not know the value of it, but in the case of young ladies and noble ladies whose jewels and precious metals were their weapons, they did not know how great the item that Davy presented to the queen was.
Everyone in the know knew about the legendary ring that was crafted by the best craftsman of the Dwarves and blessed by a fairy.
There are ghosts in the world that cannot be saved even with money.
And now, the object that Davy gave to the queen as a gift was the rarest of treasures that collectors want to save even if it costs billions of dollars.
In fact, it has never been revealed to the world.
Rumor has it that a rich lady spent a huge amount of money to get the Moonlight Tears, but couldn’t get them in the end.
The value of the only jewel in the world was that great.
“Oh my God… such a precious thing…”
Queen Anisha was engrossed in the beauty of the ring and didn’t know what to do, and Davy gave her a soft smile.
“Thank you for coming to the queen’s birthday. Prince Jim, thank you very much for coming to visit us. And baby.”
At King Crianes’ words, the silver-haired girl Perserk, who was beside him, bowed her head.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Thank you for being by my prince’s side.”
“I hope you two will have a good love.”
Deokdam comes and goes.
In the meantime, jealousy began to appear on the faces of the young ladies.
Among them, a young lady with an overbearing expression in a blue dress said while covering her mouth with a fan.
“Come to think of it, Lady Cecily. By the way, did Lady Hani’s father say that he was involved in the tax payment of the Heinz estate?”
“Oh, yes. That’s why I gave you the news about Miss Perserk, who will become the princess?”
When Lady Cecily, wearing a pink dress, smiled, the other young ladies smiled.
“If so, how can I make a place to be with Miss Perserk?”
Cecily smiled bitterly at the sight of the other young ladies pressuring Cecily to bring Perserk to this table for reasons that didn’t sound like words.
“Oh my God. I hope so… I wonder if the prince will send it…” ”
This is a gathering of young ladies who have not been married yet. I hope that Miss Perserk will also attend.”
On the outside, they were smiling faces.
However, the emotions hidden in the faces of those present were never bright.
It was sticky, sharp, and filthy with envy.
Dalgrak.
At that time, the young lady of Duke Yurbara, who had been sitting quietly and staring at Davy, quietly opened her mouth.
“Please. I hope you can brighten up the place.”
At those words, Cecily smiled brightly.
“If you want, I’ll try to use my strength.”
“I really want you to attend. I don’t know if I have a position that really suits the occasion.”
“Come to think of it, the rumors seem to be true.”
“A rumor?”
“That Miss Perserk, who was appointed as the prince’s rain, is actually…”
“Really?”
“Rumors about commoners.”
They had no idea what Perser’s last name was.
