"... Thank you."

"I asked to see you for a moment because I needed to talk to you."

"... ?"

Remerton adjusted his iron glasses and spoke in a deep voice.

"Come under me, Raymond."

"...!"

"I am the next king. Serve me, and I will promise you a great fortune."

It was an unexpected recruitment offer.

'Why suddenly?'

Raymond was stunned. Then something even more alarming happened.

"Well, well. You're quick on your feet, little brother. Of course, as usual, it'll be in vain."

A handsome young man, with a dangerous smile.

It was Second Prince Kairen!

He looked at Raymond.

"I'd say the same thing. I would rather have you under me than such a worthless wretch. When I ascend to the throne, I will give you a great fortune."

Raymond blinked. Two princes offering him a job at the same time?

'Am I dreaming?'

Of course he wasn't dreaming. Raymond realized what was happening.

'My value has risen to the point where both princes have their eyes on me.'

The Second and Third Princes were currently engaged in a fierce power struggle.

They were at war to win over every influential nobleman to their side.

Before, Raymond had been too insignificant to attract their attention, but now he was starting to get it.

'Am I supposed to like this or not?'

Raymond thought nervously.

"I'm probably more suited to Raymond than you are. And you don't seem to remember much of the past."

In the past.

In the past, when Kairen had bullied Raymond.

Kairen bullied Raymond just as badly as Seitil.

'I was lucky I didn't bully him.'

But Kairen shrugged.

"That's in the past. If I were you, I would rather serve the man who will truly be king than the one who has a shady past. Think about it, Raymond. Who can truly give you a halo."

They looked at Raymond straight in the eye.

As if to force him to answer.

'...What are you talking about, you bastards?'

Naturally, Raymond was not pleased.

He didn't like either of the princes.

'I can get my own wealthy and honor. I don't even have to open my hand to you.'

"Fuck you both!" he wanted to shout.

The problem was, he couldn't.

Unlike an oaf like Seitil, the two princes were terrifying.

Their strength and power were no match for Seitil.

Neither of them should be his enemy.

'How can I avoid them? How?'

Then a message came to him.
