Evil-like Duke Household

Chapter 72: His majesty and Shirts.



Chapter 72: His majesty and Shirts.

King of the azolias, Leon=Azolias.

Just as the one who held a great position, as the king of Azolias, I could be said was very gallant and had outstanding bravery, which wasnt any inferior to the previous kings.

When fighting against the demons, I command the troop from the front line, sometime fight by myself in battle.

In this way, some people might thought me as a simple minded muscle head.

In the other country, usually one wouldnt allow their king to rush into battle and took part into a battle like that.

But this was the kingdom of Azolias.

The king was supposed to be strong. It was not even an exaggeration to said that it was the kings job to guide the people and soldiers to victory.

In fact, although I wasnt able to stand in front of the battlefield in the previous war, but after the war was over... I lead a party hunting for the remnant of the enemy soldier, I also hunted after the enemy dragon rider in a large scale expedition and ended up defeating several dragon with my own hand.

Yes, I was a strong man.

My mind always in alert, but wouldnt succumb in fear, as I wouldnt fell into panic.

... At least until this moment.

--- Governor, Grid=Ractos ! At this moment, I will reveal all of your scheme to the world!

That was the sign of the hellist time.

The man who said that was my son, the first prince of the Azolias Kingdom, he was also the one who said to be the next king, Alto=Azolias.

When I first heard that, I calmly thought what is my son talking about. But then I realized that my son really wanted to arrest the governor and the other, my face turned completely blue.

To be honest, I now was in complete fear.

From whom? Did I really need to mention that?

Of course, it was the man who stood behind me, leaning slightly to the left, while making a face of a murderer.... the prime minister.

What an earth happened for him to release that kind of killing intent that you usually point to your enemy to your own lord?

... Well, although I said that, I pretty much knew why.

Well, the reason... was not really hard to guess, right?

Somewhere in my mind, resurrect the memory when the father of the Duke Ractos who were about to get impeached at this moment, the sorcery king, gave the notice of his sudden return.

At that time, I forgot for what reason why I were put on seiza by the prime minister and had to listen to his preaching.

Speaking of its content, it seems that my son, Alto=Azolias had misunderstand that the governor... Duke Grid=Ractos, and his whole family were planning to do something bad to the country, and at that moment, I was tried to solve the misunderstanding.

I remember that minister said You said you wanted to tell about him yourself, you should explain it properly, you useless king! to me, I remembered it word by word.

Well, I remembered it again now after all these time I forgotten about it.

That was to say, there was no way that the situation would turned into such helpless situation just because I forgot to tell my son about the fact that the governor was not like what he thought.

wasnt that right? With eyes asking that, I shifted my sight to the prime minister behind me.

... Prime minister bit his hand to the point of bleeding, staring fiercely at me with red veins bulging out from his temple.

I quickly shifted my gaze from him.

It seems the situation escalated into this mess really because I forgot to explain things to my son.

Wouldnt that be bad for me then?

Just at that moment, seeing the conversation that unfold in front of me, made my shirt wet with cold sweat.

But have you forgotten? I already told you guys that I have the evidence, and these evidence are not something that you guys can run away from

Just as when the fear that had been brought by prime minister made my shirt wet to the point that it wouldnt really matter if I changed my shirt right now, the trial that Alto gave to the duke had reached its climax.

The testimony of the secret conversation between the Count and Duke, The bribes that Jake gave to the old man on the alley, and the confessed assassin.

... My sons intelligence-gathering ability really amazing, heh.

If I didnt know the fact that the governor was just a scary faced man who wouldnt even able to harm a fly in front of his face, I would believe everything that my son had said just now.

...Oi, stop him. What are you doing? Didnt you hear that? Am I not clear enough that you couldnt hear me? OI, stop him quickly. Youre the only one who could stop him. OI

At the same time, not only the trial, but the killing intent that the prime minister emit also had reached its peak.

He spoke to me with a trembling voice that I could only barely heard as if he holding his anger.

Again, I am scared.

Look, my legs were shaking like newborn fawn you know? My knee couldnt muster any strength. To be honest, I felt that I wouldn't be able to properly stood up for a few days.

But, didnt you thought that it was quite amazing for me to not lose control of myself in situation like this.

The man who hired you is the Ractos household! Is that true?

Ah, yes, no mistake, just as you said

Alto brought a light brown skinned man into the room who had been regarded as an assassin, and confess that he was an assassin.

But I know, I felt that this man was someone who had a similar atmosphere as me.

You know, when I was scared at meeting a foreigner, and that person spoke in their own language fluently?

I didnt understand what in the world they were talking about so I just gave a random answer.

Now, I felt the same atmosphere with this man as when I gave those random response.

That are all the witness, and the evidences. Well, Duke Ractos... And Jake. Do you have any excuses?

They seems had something to say but couldnt do due to the shock they received from the trial and the confession of the assassin guy.

Now the situation had an became an utter chaos.

Of course, now that everyone had been pushed into despair.

OI! YOU FOOL! IVE BEEN TOLD TO NOT MAKE ANY NOISE HERE. STOP HIM YOU BASTARD!!
