two days ago.
After coming out of Daejeon, Morgan went to Bernant’s residence.
Because he was the one who gave me the information about the Resurrection Church.
Morgan recalled the conversation at that time.
<Morgan, based on what you said, it is highly likely that it is the Resurrection Church.>
<… … Resurrection Church, you mean those guys from the Feyer Continent?>
<Yes. Either Annette cares so much, or considering the range of motion, it makes sense.>
<Why are they in the kingdom?>
<It’s not a kingdom, it’s the Sigvarda Continent.>
Hearing this, Morgan wondered inwardly.
My uncle knew the existence that even he didn’t know.
‘Although his influence was great in the past… … ‘
The first time I heard this, I was a little embarrassed, but I soon understood it.
More important than that was information about Cruz.
The northern part of the continent lacked its own information network, so it was possible.
But now my thoughts have changed a bit.
‘… … I should be suspicious.’
It was a thought I had after hearing what the Queen and Cruz had to say.
Of course, I wasn’t too suspicious, but… … .
It was a pretty big change of mind for Morgan.
I thought that my maternal uncle, a member of the same royal family, would not have joined hands with such people.
‘… … I’m too ugly.’
This thought came to my mind immediately when I heard about it in Daejeon.
Even so, I had a promise with my uncle to keep things a secret.
The bigger reason was because of nervousness.
‘I never thought I’d think like this.’
It was a feeling I had when I was conscious of Cruz’s actions.
When I first remembered that he was on a winning streak, I honestly laughed.
Well, I thought it was my guy.
Now, I felt ashamed of myself.
‘… … I was too complacent.’
At this point, is there anything you do better than Cruz?
Potential was originally evaluated as inferior, but as much as skill, it was an absolute superiority.
However, it turns out that even that doesn’t make much of a difference… … .
Over time, this difference will become significant.
As a result, Morgan felt uneasy about the enormous power he possessed.
‘Is this really meaningful?’
It was a thought from the time Cruz inferred the possibility that there could be a contact with Amchungdae.
The guy who had less power than Hones now followed closely to his chin.
Not only that, but it’s producing incredible results.
To think that the queen entrusted even the most important work related to the revival church to the current situation, like Amcheongdae… … .
<And your question, isn’t it to evade my question?>
<As for the question, why did I take command of the raid?>
<Yes. No matter how you are, this is obviously… … .>
<Because I was the one who found out about the Resurrection Church.>
That’s why, when I heard this, I felt like something was breaking.
Morgan belatedly realized that this was a setback.
The emotions at that time made Morgan’s resolution even firmer.
‘Somehow, I have to solve it.’
Already, Cruz was showing considerable influence in relation to the Resurrection Church.
In this situation, if you just watch and watch, you will be pushed back in the battle for power.
That’s why I didn’t mention the name Bernant.
‘If I had mentioned my maternal uncle on the spot, I would have started investigating right away.’
… … What a pitiful and pitiful thought this was, Morgan knew well.
I had never felt this kind of pressure in my life, so my vision narrowed.
‘I will make my own judgment and report.’
If not, you’re lucky.
If it’s true, I think I’ll take the initiative with this.
Morgant faced Bernant.
“I heard everything. But the response was a bit disappointing.”
percussion.
Bernant offered the tea to Morgan and continued talking naturally.
“Anyone with a little brain, you would have inferred the status of the person who gave you the information from your attitude.”
“… … Is that what you want to do now?”
“Morgan, you have to fix that first.”
Bernant put his mouth to the teacup placed in front of him and continued.
“You have to know how to face the problem. It means that you have to suppress your strong point of not wanting to lose in a situation like this.”
… … Morgan didn’t like the situation itself in which he was being told this, but he endured it.
Because it wasn’t the time to be angry.
However, since I had to calm down my boiling inside, I naturally drank the tea that Bernant had prepared.
“That guy, Cruz, is better than I thought. I never thought you would break the trap I prepared for you like that.”
“… … .”
“It’s not strange that you feel so pressured. It even reminded me of my f*cking past.”
Do you remember the time when you competed with the queen?
A slight displeasure crept over Bernant’s face.
“Still, there are things you did well.”
“What is it?”
“You didn’t mention my name until the end.”
“… … .”
“We must keep that in mind in the future.”
“… … I beg your pardon?”
“If my name is mentioned, Annette will dig right into me.”
At the same time, Bernant added that he would drive himself regardless of the facts.
“Uncle, please calm down. Mama can’t do that… … .”
“Ha ha ha ha ha! Morgan, you are surprisingly naive despite being bold.”
“… … .”
“Can we realistically catch the person involved in the Resurrection Church that has permeated the kingdom?”
“… … It won’t be easy.”
“okay. Whatever it is, it is absolutely impossible in the short term. So, we will seek internal solidarity as a political scapegoat.”
Bernant added that the target would be himself.
He was also a static existence at one time, so there’s nothing wrong with blaming him.
“And Morgan. That scapegoat will include you.”
“… … What nonsense.”
“Do you really think so? There’s a cruise that Annette likes.”
“… … !”
“Face the facts, Morgan.”
He made it based on the favor and actions of the queen.
At this, Morgan felt a little dizzy.
“Morgan, don’t you want to be king?”
“… … .”
“Innate talent. You’re like me in that you’ll end up getting pushed out because of that damn factor.”
Although he had been informed by Bernant, Morgan had not truly held hands with him.
It’s just a temporary advice.
The debt is owed, but that does not mean an alliance is formed.
“Take my hand, Morgan.”
“I will refuse.”
That’s why Morgana resolutely rejected the offer.
“Why?”
“I am the 1st Prince of the Kingdom of Grandets. I cannot hold hands with my uncle.”
“Is it because I was once Annette’s static?”
“No, you cannot join hands with an innocent suspect.”
“… … Ha ha ha ha ha!”
The bloody madness of Bernant resounded, but Morganh quietly watched him.
I thought the royal family couldn’t do that, but it’s clear he’s a suspect anyway.
Bernant spoke as if he could see through Morgan’s thoughts.
“You, unexpectedly, resemble Hones. This must be bloodline.”
Intense hostility melted into his chewing and spitting tone.
“Damn Annette had that side too.”
“… … What kind of disloyalty is this to your mother?”
“Disloyalty? The seat was originally mine, so what’s the problem?”
“Uncle, what you say right now… … ?”
Clink.
Morgan dropped the teacup he was holding.
It was because of a sudden loss of strength.
I tried to force myself to do it, but… … .
“… … !”
There was no power.
He hurriedly raised his mana, but only felt the sense that his physical freedom had been taken away.
“The medicine given by the Rehabilitation Church certainly works. I thought a 6-star wizard would make it like this.”
“This… … .”
“I already expected that you would decline my offer.”
Dalgrak.
Bernant put down the teacup he was drinking and stood up leisurely.
“Where will the blood of my damn sister go?”
Morganan stopped panicking and tried everything he could.
However, his body seldom escaped paralysis.
I felt that my consciousness was trying to get farther away.
“I don’t know if you doubted it, but blame yourself for not being so vigilant.”
“… … Besides, stay… … .”
“When you open your eyes, you will be a traitor.”
After those words, Morgan’s consciousness was cut off.
* * *
The news of Morgan’s revolt came as a shock.
Even those who had negatively evaluated him until now had one thing to admit.
It was that the pride he had as the prince of the kingdom was great.
“Brother is a rebellion, something is wrong with this.”
So Hones had no choice but to deny this fact.
Because he knew this better than anyone else.
“The point I didn’t acknowledge my older brother was that he always valued his own greed more than the kingdom, something like this… … .”
“Calm down, Hornes.”
Despite my words, he couldn’t hide his agitated expression.
Hones was not alone in this reaction.
Those who supported Morgan, as well as me and the people of Honess who opposed him, were similar.
No, everyone in the kingdom would react like this.
Because it was so, so out of the blue, so sudden.
“… … What do you think, brother?”
“Well… … .”
In fact, it was a move that even I did not understand.
It wasn’t that he gathered all the supporters and raised an army.
‘Looking at the scale, Morgan only took the number that he could command right away… … .’
The justification and timing are too out of the blue.
Can the soldiers gathered in this situation really fight properly?
Rather, there is a high possibility that they will collapse before they can properly confront each other.
‘… … I know of a case similar to this.’
In the past, one of the Archbishops of the Church of Resurrection used an artifact with this power.
It could only be used on incapacitated opponents.
He was even able to possess possession that the target could not resist.
‘But I killed him.’
It was a very dangerous force.
Because he was able to read all the memories of the possessed target, he could even pretend to be someone else if he succeeded.
[Wouldn’t it have been taken over by someone else? When I look at it, nothing else comes to mind.]
‘… … Yes, it could be.’
There was a good chance that someone else was using the artifact he was using.
However, what bothers me is the action immediately after that.
If it had succeeded, it would have been possible to confuse it by pretending to be Morgan.
Such an open rebellion was an act of greatly diminished effectiveness.
[Perhaps the rule is not perfect.]
‘Well, that guy was too picky about using that artifact.’
If the successor was inexperienced in using it, there was a good chance that he would not be able to draw out the original power.
‘Then there is still a possibility… … .’
The person who was completely possessed by this power was virtually dead because there was no way to save him.
But if it’s not perfect, I can solve it on my own.
[If that’s the case, you won’t have to worry about information about the Resurrection Church.]
This is because the possessed person could perfectly read the memory of the person who entered the body.
However, the problem is… … .
‘Even if I break the possession, it will be hard to avoid dying.’
This was unavoidable.
Because breaking the rule did not mean saving lives.
It was difficult for me to fix the fact that other people’s consciousness harms the body arbitrarily.
[What does that have to do with you? Focus only on punishing the Resurrection Church and taking revenge, Cruz.]
‘… … Yes, it is.’
[Well, you’ve been weak in strange places in the past.]
‘It’s not like that, it’s because it reminds me of the queen.’
Currently, the queen had given Morgan the order to deprive him of his royal status and punish him.
He was very cold-hearted when he delivered the news of the rebellion or his conclusion about it… … .
It looked a little different to me.
‘It’s killing emotions.’
My father in my previous life was a person with a lot of affection.
As a result, there were times when I had to kill it and make a firm decision.
In my eyes, the image of my father at the time overlapped with that of the queen.
So, there was something I was worried about.
The first son is in a situation where both honor and life are being played by the Resurrection Church.
I felt this kind of feeling because I knew the affection the queen had shown me.
‘… … First of all, I’ll have to tell the queen.’
By rescuing Morgan, it was an opportunity to obtain information about the Resurrection Church.
So, I went to see the queen.
“Go back, low.”
The Guard Knight Commander, Heurant, stood in my way resolutely.
