�Why do you think it was for my reputation?�

�He thinks I came out of the castle to save face and my reputation as crown prince even though I knew it was a trap?�

Alberu could not hide his sigh.
He started to laugh as he responded.

�To think that you see saving people as just a tool for saving face or reputation.�

His stern and sharp voice was directed at the White Star.

�You are a weakling.�

The White Star thought he heard incorrectly and asked.

�What?�
�Weakling. W-E-A-K-L-I-N-G. I heard you said this. Ruler? You wish to be king?�

The White Star�s face started to stiffen.
However, Alberu did not care.
He just continued to speak as if nothing was wrong.

�King? A shithead like you wants to be king? You want to be king with a rotten mindset like that?�

The White Star�s face completely stiffened.
The fire sword appeared in his hand.

The Knight Captain looked around and urgently started to speak.

��Your highness-�

�Please don�t rile him up any more. It is dangerous.�

That was what the Knight Captain wanted to say.

It was because the knights who had been surrounding the crown prince had ended up moving away because of the wyverns and the knights and black mages on top of the wyverns.
Only he and a couple of others remained right by the crown prince.

They should not provoke the enemy any more.

However, Alberu spoke first before the knight could say anything.

�You�re a joke.�

Smirk.

He then smirked. JrNovels.com
