Chapter 102: Second Prince Of Pure Love
Earlier than being launched from jail, I had a little bit of a wake-up name. Fortunately, the beneficiant Second Prince wasn’t too harsh on me. Quite than appearing out of spite, it felt extra like a warning to tread rigorously.
As soon as I stepped out of jail, the ambiance was actually totally different. Regardless of their efforts to make the jail livable, the full of life streets had been a number of instances higher.
The Second Prince, Irid, strolled by means of the acquainted Crownhall. He hid his golden hair with magic and dressed inconspicuously, mixing in with the anonymous mercenaries passing by.
As a result of he was so good wanting, even when he dressed down, he nonetheless stood out like the primary character in a fantasy novel, however at the least it was higher than flaunting his golden hair.
“So, how was the Academy?”
“Effectively, it was good.”
As a result of he requested me out of the blue, I answered reflexively, nevertheless it was how I actually felt.
Life on the Academy had been good. I used to be a bit lonely because the Tower Grasp wasn’t there, however that difficulty obtained resolved… It was enjoyable bickering with the Pink-Haired Lesbian, and I even managed to conduct a session, regardless of it getting derailed halfway.
Instructing youngsters turned out to be extra fulfilling than I had anticipated.
I used to be a professor, not a dungeon maker. I didn’t simply throw them into dungeons and inform them to do their finest to outlive.
As a substitute, I ran detailed analyzers on every pupil to trace their development, establish their struggles, and nurture their abilities. I turned this information into a standing window for straightforward viewing.

It felt like I used to be enjoying a personality coaching sport, which excited me. I even set a objective to raise that pupil to the extent of a silver-medal mercenary by the point they graduated.
Talking of the Academy, wasn’t I on an prolonged enterprise journey to Crownhall?
A professor shouldn’t take a break only for private causes. That’s why, whereas I’m gone, I created a mini-game for self-learning.
Utilizing simulation and battle AI….. I constructed the Tower of Trials!
It consists of flooring 1 to 10, every with a boss monster.
College students may try it as typically as they preferred, solo or in groups and college students may try it as a lot as they needed so long as that they had the time to take action. I even gave them a discover saying that those that cleared the tenth ground earlier than I obtained again would obtain a want ticket.
The want ticket would allow them to skip all future courses whereas nonetheless incomes an A+.
Some fascinating archetypes emerged from the AI’s infinite fight cycles, which led me to create this plan. There was the Battō Maniac who obsessed over Battōjutsu, and Jenny of the Chain Sickle, amongst others.
It could be helpful for them to realize as a lot battle expertise as doable. Combating boss monsters with uncommon weapons with out dying is a useful expertise.
“Give me an apple. Wait…. Would you want one?”
“Should you give me one, I’ll eat it.”
“In that case, two apples. Right here.”
The Second Prince ordered an apple from the lady on the fruit stall, expertly avoiding the dangerous ones whereas choosing two.
Whoosh.
I caught the apple he tossed with each palms. The Second Prince bit into his apple, the crunch sounding regular sufficient…. I touched the shiny floor of the apple. It felt somewhat bizarre.
I scratched at it, and a skinny layer peeled off, revealing what seemed like some sort of polish. I gave the Second Prince a heads-up.
“Appears to be like like they rubbed one thing to make it look appetizing. Could be wax or slime.”
“……Inform me earlier than I eat it!”
“Why didn’t you verify extra rigorously? You’re an essential individual.”
The Second Prince appeared able to spit out the apple however hesitated, possibly not desirous to soiled the streets, and reluctantly swallowed it as a substitute.
“You’re not spitting it out?”
“It’s alright for a prince to eat one thing barely bizarre. I’ve over ten private clergymen.”
Did he imply it was okay to get sick as a result of he had healers at his beck and name? I don’t assume the clergymen got to him for use like that.
The Second Prince seemed irritated, nevertheless it didn’t seem like he was gonna cling the fruit vendor.
I don’t assume he was ever this good to commoners, he’s modified fairly a bit.
“…..Ptui.”
He rinsed his mouth with water from a bottle and spat it out in a secluded alleyway.
I assume he did really feel uncomfortable. Wiping his mouth together with his sleeve, he turned to me and requested,
“In accordance with the report…. You introduced two college students into Metamorphosis.”
“Yeah, effectively…. There was somewhat accident. It gained’t occur once more.”
“…..What did you do?”
Oh he didn’t convey it as much as scold me?
If I advised him I used to be attempting to do away with one thing in my head and by chance virtually broke my pupils mentally, I would be in bother. So, I modified the topic.
“How have you ever been just lately?”
“⋯⋯⋯⋯.”
“Are you bodily wholesome?”
“If you wish to change the topic, put in a little bit of sincerity.”
“Effectively, you…. gained’t be capable to meet her anyway. Even in the event you strive your finest to stay so long as doable, Centra shall be born if you’re a grandfather, you realize? And it’s not like you possibly can stay single till then….?”
“⋯⋯⋯⋯.”
“And even in the event you get married regardless of the 100 yr age hole, that’s a bit… You recognize?”
“You fu—”
He held it in.
Was this an assassination try to frustrate him to loss of life? The Second Prince Irid severely puzzled.
Nonetheless, the Wizard most likely wasn’t talking randomly.
Regardless that he was loopy, he was nonetheless a dimensional wizard. One in every of solely two folks conscious of the Wither Emperor and Crownhall’s future 100 years from now. The phrases of such a wizard…. Regardless that they had been extremely impolite to the purpose it made him dizzy, it will need to have some which means.
Irid speculated that the Wizard wasn’t appearing alone. He was both making a faction or was a part of one already.
The concept he was merely a succesful individual had been fully thrown out the window after the incidents on the Academy and Crownhall. Data gathering of that magnitude was too grand for a single individual.
Discovering the Black Wizards hidden on the Academy and Crownhall with such ease—may all that be doable for only one individual?
Irid framed it as a reward for his accomplishments, however he was actually asking , “What does your faction need?” And the response he obtained was that it was a secret.
His… faction.
The faction with the Loopy Wizard and the Purple Tower Grasp at its core, with unsure depth and targets. It might have appeared prefer it was below the Second Prince’s management on the floor, however in actuality, their targets simply occurred to align.
Nonetheless, it was apparent they needed the empire to prosper and proceed on.
They wakened the Second Prince Irid from deep suspicion, and resolved the discord with First Princess Elaine. That they had already proven him their loyalty. That’s why he may belief them.
They might be working collectively for some time longer. Irid determined to ask,
“Are you frightened concerning the empire?”
“Greater than that, I fear concerning the Prince. Isn’t it such a waste…. Someone who has every little thing, chasing a non-existent lover and getting nothing ultimately.”
“Should you’re worrying about me, watch your mouth Loopy Wizard. You’re making me sick.”
“Effectively…. Sometime any person must ask… about this downside of yours.”
The Wizard crossed his arms and spoke cheerfully as if speaking to a pal. Take a look at this, who may probably make such a remark to the Empire’s Prince? They genuinely wished for the Empire’s survival.
That’s exactly why this mad Wizard wouldn’t maintain again his phrases, even when Irid grew to become the Emperor. When considered from that angle, it might be seen as loyalty in its personal twisted method.
He spoke.
“If you wish to reward Centra an superior empire, then all of the extra cause for you to consider marriage. The inheritor difficulty may destabilize the Empire. Maybe…. forgetting her could be finest for each of you.”
“⋯⋯⋯⋯.”
He was proper.
If they might by no means meet once more, it could be finest to neglect one another.
If he’s warning Irid to this extent, possibly…. the Loopy Wizard and his faction had as soon as once more peered into the long run. As he stated, maybe within the distant future the empire would battle as a result of his inheritor issues.
As soon as once more there was a prophecy given proper in entrance of him.
Nonetheless, he was not afraid of prophecies that appeared like curses. He had already overcome a prophecy referred to as the Wither Emperor. Why wouldn’t he be capable to do it once more?
“It’s the other.”
“Sorry?”
“If I create an empire so highly effective {that a} mere inheritor downside wouldn’t have an effect on it, couldn’t I really like her for the remainder of my life?”
“⋯⋯??”
He simply needed to do no matter it took. To create a peaceable empire that wouldn’t collapse even 100 years after his loss of life.
Then Centra could be blissful sooner or later, and he additionally…. wouldn’t must lose these emotions and will keep blissful.
“So please cease giving me such impolite recommendation, Loopy Wizard. I’ll handle simply effective by myself.”
“……Why does such pure love exist for somebody that doesn’t even exist. Ow!”
He couldn’t maintain it in anymore. The again of the Loopy Wizard who didn’t perceive the human coronary heart was brutally smacked by Irid’s palm. The Wizard screamed and twisted his physique.
The Second Prince laughed for the primary time shortly. It was immensely satisfying.
===============================================================
“Second Prince, there was a protest about the truth that the Purple Tower Grasp entered Crownhall with out authorization. Ought to I reply that it’s a baseless rumor?”
“Second Prince! The Capital’s Knight Order expresses their regrets, and warns that if an act of violence that crosses the road happens, they’d swiftly reply….!”
“⋯⋯⋯⋯.”
Creaakkkkk.
The Second Prince’s neck creaked as he turned in direction of the Loopy Wizard.
The Loopy Wizard assessed the state of affairs briefly, after which fled the scene.
Irid grabbed the chair subsequent to him and chased after the Loopy Wizard.
That day, the Loopy Wizard was capable of stay because of his strikes. And nonetheless had one left /genesisforsaken
