The Bastard of the Famous Magic Family Became the Prince of the Enemy Country - The Bastard of the Famous Magic Family Became the Prince of the Enemy Country chapter 68

At the direct question, Morgan’s sneering face quickly hardened.

The answer was that I didn’t know you were going to ask this.

After thinking for a moment, Morgan shook his head.

“I don’t know what you mean.”

… … It was a lie to anyone.

The reaction he showed when he first heard my story, or his now subdued tone.

Because it was so different from usual.

“Did you really not know that the Resurrection Church had already entered the Sigvarda continent?”

“… … Yeah, I didn’t know.”

According to this body’s memories and information, Morgan was unexpectedly a person who did not lie.

Hones is sincere, so if you don’t.

Morgan felt that, as the first prince, he had no reason to lie.

So I had to pay more attention.

‘I don’t think he just received information from someone below him.’

Feeling the need to dig deeper, he asked again without backing down.

“Brother, you must answer honestly.”

“Are you doubting my words now?”

“Yes, I doubt it.”

“… … under! Cruz, this is an insult to me. Do you know?”

“I’m going to accept and interrogate.”

How many people know the information that the Resurrection Church has already entered the Sigvarda Continent?

It’s already been about 5 years since they came to the eastern continent, but most of them didn’t know this fact yet.

Even the merchants active in the northern part of the continent didn’t know much about it.

The reality was that there might be such a secret group as a joke.

“Your brother doesn’t seem to know the seriousness of this matter, so I will tell you.”

“… … what?”

“Few people know that the Saengsaeng Church exists. In other words, just knowing this should be suspected.”

“Do you think I don’t know that?”

Perhaps because of the tone that seemed to ignore him, Morgan replied with a growl.

This reaction was to prove that the statement that he did not know was false.

Rather than being stupid and unable to hide a lie.

It was close to immaturity revealed because he had never lied in his life.

“And isn’t that question of yours meant to avoid my question?”

“The question is, why did I take command of the raid?”

“okay. No matter how you are, this is obviously… … .”

“Because I was the one who found out information about the Resurrection Church.”

My words spread through Daejeon like a bomb.

This was unexpected, let alone Morgan.

Even those who watched had astonished feelings engraved on their faces.

“Yeah, you figured it out… … ?”

“Yes, brother. Can we end our conversation about this?”

Morgan’s eyes trembled.

This is because if it ended neatly like this, the problems of the mage tower that had been dealt with earlier would be virtually buried.

What I prepared today did not stop at nothing.

After that, it became virtually impossible to trip over the magic tower, so Morgan was agitated.

“Now answer my question.”

“… … Whatever it is, I don’t know. Even if you know… … .”

“The meeting will end here.”

At the sudden voice of the queen, not only I but also Morgan looked away in surprise.

“Everyone except Cruz and Morgan should step down.”

Feeling the unusual atmosphere, the bureaucrats quickly left without objecting.

Perhaps Morgan felt this atmosphere as well, and an embarrassing feeling appeared on his face.

“Morgan.”

The Queen’s voice resounding throughout the vast war was stricter than usual.

“Did you really not know about the Resurrection Church?”

“… … .”

In response to the Queen’s sincere question, Morgan showed emotions he had never seen before.

An expression that seemed to be embarrassed somewhere along with strong worries.

“… … I’m sorry, Mama. Soja, you dared to lie.”

“I will forgive you once. Be specific about whom and what you heard.”

Despite the queen’s conciliation, Morgan was unable to open his mouth easily.

“Morgan?”

This appearance of him surprised even the queen, and a different tone came out than usual.

“I can’t tell you, Mama.”

“… … what?”

“But trust me. Soja, I have never been on the same side as those ruffians, and I have no intention of doing so.”

“… … .”

“I also have my own information network. through it… … .”

“It’s not like you, Morgan.”

It was a gentle voice, unlike the usual dignified atmosphere.

But rather, I felt a stronger scolding than when I spoke coldly.

Morgan might have sensed this as well, biting his lip and answering with difficulty.

“… … I cannot answer right now. I’m sorry, Mama.”

“… … .”

Judging from her current appearance, it seemed that Morgan hadn’t obtained information from her subordinates.

It must have been obtained from someone who was equal to him or could not treat him carelessly.

‘however… … Was there such a person around Morgan?’

This alone was enough to narrow down the candidates.

Among the Alexander clan, either the royal family belonging to the direct line, or the influential person comparable to the duke.

Perhaps instead of giving out the information, he set the condition that the source should be thoroughly concealed.

‘Still, I think I’ll reveal it to the queen.’

Judging by the atmosphere, it didn’t seem to be weighed down by authority or threats.

It was more like trying to keep a promise.

Seeing things like this, even though we have different personalities, I can feel that we are brothers with Hones.

“Your brother looks down on the Resurrection Church.”

“… … what?”

That’s why I decided to say it.

“You must not mistake the priority and importance of work.”

However, this kind of attitude eventually comes out because I did not feel the importance of this work.

“Do you know how cruel these bastards are? They will do anything for power.”

“… … .”

“In addition, the power of the archbishop, the highest official, is strong enough to be difficult even for the most elite of the kingdom.”

There were quite a few people stronger than me who reached 7 stars.

I don’t know how many of the guys on the Sigvarda continent are like that… … .

“Calm down, brother. It’s not that Mama is so wary for nothing.”

“… … .”

After the passionate speech, Morgan stared at me with strange eyes.

A burning yet cold feeling, somewhere desolate.

… … Coincidentally, the look in my eyes was similar to that of Karl Ronberg, the eldest of my brothers in my previous life.

“… … It’s as if you’re talking about what you’ve experienced yourself.”

“I am only speaking based on my research.”

“ha ha ha… … .”

An unexpected laugh came out.

There was a sense of loss in the weak, feeble, trembling laugh.

“Crus.”

“Yes, brother.”

“You are always special.”

I don’t know if it was because the queen was in front of me, but there was no anger in Morgan’s voice.

“Morgan.”

The queen’s voice seemed to calm the atmosphere.

“I will give you three days. Organize your thoughts in it, and come prepared to answer my questions.”

In response, Morgan pursed his lips.

With a bitter expression on his face, he lowered his head and replied as if squeezing out.

“Yes, Mama.”

* * *

Two days passed.

After that day, events in Daejeon quickly spread throughout the country.

It was only natural that the queen announced the existence of the Resurrection Church and that she had declared war on the strong demons.

Surprisingly, other things were being discussed more than that.

“Are you aiming for this too, bro?”

“No way, not this time.”

It was none other than my story.

Starting with the investigation of the Resurrection Church, which the Queen was so wary of.

Having achieved success and taking command of the raiding unit.

Morgan, who made this a problem, was in a difficult situation.

A lot of people took this seriously.

There were even those who asserted that it was certain that the trend would pass from Morgan to me.

There was also someone who was on my side while watching between the two.

Until now, if I had felt like I was going up against Morgan’s opponent.

Now, the consciousness that I might really get ahead was widespread.

“It’s not that I don’t understand why you’re making a fuss about your older brother, but I’m a bit bitter.”

Hornes did not hide his regretful expression and continued.

“Since everyone is focusing on the relationship between the older brothers rather than the dangers of the Resurrection Church… … .”

“… … Well, I’m a bit surprised by that too. Maybe it’s because I’ve never experienced it myself.”

Of course, it wasn’t just about me making a fuss.

Few expected that even if they had fallen out with the river demons, they would go to war.

Now there are many who see the war with them as a foreseen future.

In fact, I feel that my story is simple gossip.

The war with the strong demons was real, so the feeling of responding was strong.

“Hones.”

“Yes, brother.”

“What do you think of your brother?”

In fact, I didn’t know Morgan very well.

Of course, since it’s the biggest enemy in the succession battle, I did some research.

I didn’t know exactly what kind of person he was.

‘Because I’ve never experienced it as a human to human.’

Unlike the 2nd prince, whose memories were all from his childhood, Hones kept bumping into him.

Besides, he had only talked about Morgan’s qualities as a king, and he hadn’t mentioned anything about the human side.

“… … It might be a bit uncomfortable for my older brother to hear it, but is that okay?”

This was because the 2nd prince was terribly bullied by him when he was young.

“Tell me, I don’t care at all.”

“… … I don’t think my older brother is that malicious.”

Surprisingly, Hones didn’t seem to see Morgan badly.

Although he has a rough personality and has a lot of greed, he said that he also has strengths that contrast with him.

Have drive, or know how to command people.

He said that the effort to train was so great that he had no choice but to admit it.

“Other than that, it’s about being surprisingly stubborn.”

“Like you?”

“… … If you feel that way, I have nothing to say. Although I do not agree.”

That’s why Hones said he was surprised that Morgan had lied two days ago.

He was rough and violent, but he had never seen him act that way.

“What is the probability that Morgan hyung-nim joined hands with the Resurrection Church or helped them?”

“There is absolutely no such possibility.”

It was a firm, but somewhat ferocious answer.

The thought that the same royal family could not dare to act like that.

It must have been a reaction that came because Hones was acknowledging Morgan in his own way.

“Does your older brother think that the person who gave information to your older brother is a traitor?”

“Well, I don’t know. But whoever the opponent is, there is a need to investigate.”

“… … That’s right.”

After having a small conversation with Hones, the tumultuous atmosphere of the palace caught my eye.

In response, he grabbed the officials passing by and asked them.

“Do you know why it is so noisy?”

“Yes, lower. It is because His Majesty issued an urgent summons.”

In response, Hones and I exchanged glances without words.

He didn’t call us, but he felt the need to go.

As they gathered in Daejeon, shocking words came out of the Queen’s mouth.

“Urgent news has arrived that Morgan Alexander has rebelled.”
