Chapter 1: 1 The Ardrasia Empire, which rules the central Vogel continent . With a golden eagle as a symbol, it is one of the three great powers on the continent . The imperial capital, Wild, flourished today . A big man has appeared in the adventurer’s guild in such an imperial city .

“Sweet . . . it’s real . . . ” “Hey, that corner is King Minotaur’s corner . . . ” “Seriously . . . AAA class rare monster . . . Is it defeated alone? . . . ? “

What is whispered in my mouth is just a marvelous word . Attracting attention is a black mage who has dragged a huge corner . She has black hair and wears a long black robe . However, only the face has a characteristic silver mask . The receptionist who is already accustomed to that figure does not surprise and responds normally .

“Thank you, Silver . This is my reward . “

SS class adventurer silver . Calling my tentative name, the receptionist gave me a reward with a smile as usual . The amount of gold coins never seen by the adventurers who were there is offered as a pong . Of course . King Minotaur is a monster designated individually by the adventurer’s guild . A large prize money was hanging as the head of the prize . Not long ago, he was not in the Imperial territory, but a class-A adventurer set up a large party, but failed to defeat him and flowed to the Imperial territory . That’s why I was defeated .

“Thank you .

The brown-haired receptionist smiles and says . Looking at it, I smiled and put some gold coins to the guild entrance .

“Ah . . . ? Silver-san . What is this?” “I’m grateful to everyone here . Drink me with alcohol . However, if you come to me with a request of high difficulty again, I want you to give priority to me . ” ,Yes, I understand!” T r an sl a te d b y jpｍt l . ｃ o m

The receptionist holds the gold coin happily . More than that, adventurers in the guild have begun to happily fuss . I am an adventurer who only accepts difficult requests . That’s why the guild gives me the higher difficulty requests first . However, he is a bad adventurer . It is important to degas in this way . I’m not in a position to move freely . With that in mind, I quickly left the guild and headed to the inn . So he took off his silver mask and black robe and changed his clothes to those of the upper class . I am very careful here .

“It’s important to bend the prince as an adventurer just to bend . ” “If you are aware, please give yourself weight . Prince Arnold . “

What appears silently and calls my name is Sebastian, a butler serving from my mother’s generation . He is more than fifty, a blonde old man, but his back is straight and his butler’s uniform is fine . As you can see from the fact that he appeared without sound, he is a grandfather who has never diminished in ability other than the butler . And as the butler said, my name is Arnold Lakes Adler . The seventh prince of this empire .

“You’ve said many times that it doesn’t appear without sound? Sebas” “Forgive me because it’s a habit . ” “I also don’t want to listen to sermons .

I have a twin brother . Excellent in valor, clear in mind . Good personality . No matter what you do, a genius who reaches the top class immediately . Even though they have the same face, they are praised for their grace and elegance, but they are all-you-can-say and say they have no ambition or lack of fear . I am angry with my younger brother because my suitors are not endless . On the other hand, I’m an incompetent and helpless prince . Played since childhood, many prodigy my tutors threw a spoon in prodigy . His reputation quickly spread to the entire Imperial City and the entire Empire, and the nickname attached to it was all that was good for his younger brother . It is still seen with disdain by everyone in the castle and continues to be beaten . Not expected from anyone, it is a royal family but the bottom . That’s me as a prince .

“Don’t worry about what such a dwarf says . Everyone doesn’t know your true power . ” “I don’t care . I’m just treated like that . He said there was no point to be told .

Tr a ns l at e d b y jp ｍ tl . ｃo ｍ Speaking sneaky, though you’re acting like that from yourself, is sneaky . But thanks to this statement, I can live freely . However .

“I understand what I mean, but I can’t help saying that . Please return to the castle immediately . ” ” . . . what happened?” “General Dominique has passed away . ” That old general? “

He is an honorary general of the Imperial Guard . He has retired and has not had a particularly good career, but has survived more than fifty years on the front line . For his service, he was appointed honorary general of the Imperial Guard, and was in a position to keep his opinion . He was old and had a heart problem, but he should not have died suddenly . Two characters of assassination cross his head .

“Who are those three people . . . ” “The details are unknown, but the culprit will not be searched for . “

He is a person who can easily make enemies by saying something that can not be worn on his teeth, but there is one factor in assassination . Recently, General Dominique rammed himself for a throne battle . He was always spoiling the prince and princess, but only one prince liked it and began to shoulder . And those who saw it dangerous . In other words, they were assassinated by the leaders in the battle for the throne . I guess such a place . After all, the honorary general . There is no real damage to the empire . Will be treated as sick . Only the prince who has lost ally is damaged . The prince is the eighth prince, Leonard Lakes Adler . My twin brother .

“Because Leo naturally forms an ally . . . . I guess he didn’t create powers with the intention of coming to the throne, but . . . ” “It’s a matter of being regarded as a power . Prince Leonard is now trying to become a throne . Was recognized as an enemy . “

I sigh to Sebas’s words . Among the heirs of the throne who are fighting for the throne, three are the most prominent . The second prince, the second princess, the third prince . These three have their own powers, and it is very likely that any of the three will be on the throne . And the other heirs have two paths . The first is to stay on your side or at least stay neutral . The other is hostile, aiming for the throne . If the latter is chosen and lost, the three will be exiled at best, and executed at worst due to their character . The punishment will extend to those involved . In the case of Leo, our mother and I are involved . And Leo decided to choose the latter . It doesn’t make sense to be a good friend or a neutral declaration now . It can’t be helped .

“I have to make Leo an emperor . . . ” “Is there no way to become an emperor . . . ?” “I’m an emperor . All the trouble is the man who threw it to his brother I’ll do that again this time . “

I wanted to go to the adventurer’s life at will, but it was just about to be executed . It can’t be helped but it can’t be helped . Let’s say it’s a leap for my brother .

■■■

Returning to Teijin Castle, a sword-like castle in the center of the Imperial City, I was immediately heading to Leonard’s room . However, along the way, several ministers and nobles were encountered .

“This is Prince Arnold . It looks fine today . ” “Thank you very much . ” “Yes, Prince Arnold feels comfortable and enviable every day . In exchange, Prince Leonard works hard every day . “I think he’s better than me . ” “That’s exactly right! He’s going to join the fight for the throne, following the three brothers and sisters . Prince Arnold can’t lose . “I’m sorry to compare this with Prince Leonard! Prince Arnold and Prince Leonard have different talents even though they’re twins!” “Oh! This is rude . “Don’t worry . It’s all true . “

With that said, I’m passing by them . He bows reverently, but everyone is stupid . I know that I don’t speak to the emperor, and I don’t hear it when I do it . Only I among the royals are not treated as royals . Apart from the local aristocrats, the aristocrats and ministers in the imperial capital are really licking me . Well, because I’m acting like that . The reason we don’t change the behavior is that we think it’s fine . Because nobody cares about me, I can act as silver and do whatever I want . The only way to do whatever you like in the status of a prince is to put yourself in this kind of position . With that in mind, I arrive at Leo’s room .

“I’ll get in the way” “My brother . . . “

When he entered the room without knocking, Leo sat down in a chair and hung out . The year is eighteen . Of course, the same age as me, but Leo is more likely to be older than the restful relationship . Although she looks completely mellow, Leo keeps her hair neat, while I’m ragged . Leo wears the clothes properly, but I’m down . Leos are also stretched, but I’m a stoop . I can’t be mistaken after growing up . Leo’s face, such as her twin brother, is exhausted . If you see yourself and your two melons sinking, don’t let the tension go down here .

“I heard the story . That old man seems to have died . ” “Yeah . . . ” “I guess it’s probably an assassination?” ” . . . probably . ” T ra nsl a te d b y Ｊpm t l . ｃo ｍ

You can’t say that your brother or sister can’t be assassinated . Considering the situation, assassination is most likely .

“What should I do?” ” . . . I don’t want to fight in my family” “I thought I would say”

Leo did not want to aim for the throne . I was just curious about Leo’s personality . The lead was Dominic . Leo himself was reluctant to contend for the throne, as he did now . However, the talented and talented Leo was becoming the fourth power behind the second prince, the second princess, and the third prince, regardless of their will . So the burning one was assassinated . But that doesn’t mean Leo is safe . It is a dark future to wait for all three to become emperors .

“You are already perceived as an enemy . If you don’t take part in the empire fight, you’re just waiting for death . And that’s with me and your mother . ” “Yeah . . . I know . . . I’m sorry . ” “Show me your policy . ” ” . . . I have no choice but to take part in the empire battle . “

Leo told her that she had a bitter decision . Leo alone would probably have withdrawn if it was life-threatening . However, potential harm could cause Leo to aim for the throne . In the end, they want to help out and ask the emperor . From my point of view, I feel too kind to be an emperor . After this, I have no choice but to be emperor .

“I’m weak, but I cooperate . You just collect allies and create power . If you get big, you won’t be able to reach out . ” “Yeah . . . brother?” “I’m looking for my friends . Don’t do it, because influential ministers and nobles basically belong to the above three factions . “” I know . . . Thank you . Brother . I think my brother is more suitable for the emperor than me . . . ” “I can’t live playing if I become an emperor . I have a life plan that greets a beautiful wife and plays and lives . Therefore, you have to be an emperor anyway . I’ll get it! “

I hit Leo’s shoulder while saying selfish things . His body was slightly shaking . I guess it can’t be helped . The top three are monsters from the perspective of a good Leo . In terms of ability, no matter who becomes the emperor, the empire is safe . Naturally, the power is powerful . But no matter how powerful, it’s not invincible . Leo also has a chance because of the situation where the three are fighting .

“Do you want to increase your ally and get your father to accept it?” “Yes . It’s your father who ultimately decides the successor . ” “Now, how do we approve our Emperor?”

This was the start of the emperorship of our twins .
