However, there was something they were relying on.

A king could not survive on his own.

Alberu who would become king in the future had no blood relatives, hometown ties, nor school ties. That was why the nobles were bowing down now while expecting that their own powers would eventually grow in the future.

But now, Alberu Crossman had the youngest sword master in his school ties and Cale Henituse as his sworn brother.

��What a scary human.�

Some of the nobles who were faster at processing things looked toward Alberu with fear. They were afraid of the crown prince�s ability to tie the heroes of not just the Roan Kingdom but the entire Western continent to his side. They were also afraid of how he was able to coldly calculate and give those two heroes positions that were just for show and held no actual power.

One noble could only watch Alberu Crossman and this situation with fear in his eyes.

He could see it. He could see Alberu Crossman�s power and influence that had gotten even stronger.

He then looked toward Cale and Choi Han with pity. As a quick thinker, he had a different mindset about the two people who were now the future king�s sworn brother and instructor than the other nobles who were looking at them with admiration and envy.

�They fell for the crown prince�s sweet talk.�

Instructor and sworn sibling. Status that came with no power whatsoever.
The noble could see the crown prince who must have swayed them by saying that these were honorable positions and the two inexperienced young men who fell for that scam.

�I guess they were drunk on this hero play because they are still young and ended up falling for these positions that are only important in name!�

The noble looked toward Cale and Choi Han with pity while thinking that the crown prince was scary. He also confirmed something in his mind.

�We don�t need to worry about Choi Han anymore. But this is just the beginning for Cale Henituse.
We can�t let that bastard get a government position!�

He would always do things to support the crown prince. The noble was thinking that no position nor title could go to Cale, no matter what achievements he had in the future.

This was something most of the nobles were thinking about as well.

�� We need to do our best to make sure Cale Henituse has as little power as possible.�

They needed to make it so that he could gain no power in this political arena, in this battle for power. If they could not hinder Count Henituse�s family, then they needed to at least block Cale.

This determination started to spread through the nobles.

One person calmly started to speak as if he did not notice the atmosphere at all.

�Cale, I was extremely disappointed to remove you from this list, but I am very happy to continue as sworn siblings from here on. Don�t you agree?�

There was only one thought on Cale�s mind as he listened to Alberu.

�How long is he going to drag this on?� JrNovels.com
