Episode 37
I got up and looked around the room.
Shall we settle down in a quiet village? As I thought before, in a small town that stinks of people.
At that time, temperature control magic stones and anti-eavesdropping magic would be useless, right?
Even after searching through the dressing table drawers, cabinets, and under the rugs, I couldn't find any small valuables that I could carry with me.
At that time, the 'handsome statue', which had always been a nuisance, caught my eye.
A handsome half-naked sculpture that shone in the moonlit night and gave me goosebumps many times.
Reminds me of the fairy tale 'The Happy Prince'.
The story of a statue of a prince adorned with gold and jewels helping those around me with the precious metal attached to my body.
"Prince, please help me."
When I rolled up the rug and propped it under the statue and pushed it down, the prince with poor durability dropped the two emeralds stuck in my eyes.
"I hope it's not fake."
I giggled, but the laughter stopped when I remembered someone's eyes that resembled emeralds.
It's fortunate that there are many people other than me who will take care of the main character's happiness.
* * *
As soon as morning came, the knights who ran to my call couldn't hide their embarrassment when they saw the fragmented 'Handsome'.
"Because I didn't like him before."
Heh, he snorted, and the knights laughed awkwardly.
The servants who appeared with the knights said, 'I'm a bitch, but my temper hasn't died.' He looked away and removed the handsome man's pieces.
"Are you not hurt?"
It's not unreasonable to be worried because the handsome guy who was modeled after a prince from somewhere far away was life-size.
"Do not worry."
As they blinked, the knights let out a sigh of relief.
"Did you contact the other drivers last night?"
This was the first question I asked when the attendants, who hurriedly removed the pieces and carried the rug just in case, disappeared from sight.
The two made a meaningful expression.
"A funny thing happened."
"What is it?"
"It is said that there are maids who smell like omega in the quarters where the knights stay."
"yes? A maid who is not an omega and smells like an omega?"
"Fake Omega."
Is there anything like that?
The knights made faces that would kill them laughing.
"It looks like you've heard that Heneken's knights have a high alpha ratio."
The old knight chuckled at the end, saying that Kitchener's ruse was only to provoke a fake rut.
I didn't laugh at all.
What was he trying to do by triggering a fake rut?
"Alpha's ruts usually last a week. Once it happens, everyone is so busy doing it that they can't come out. And if you marry someone during the rut period, your chances of getting pregnant increase."
I couldn't do activities, or I wanted to make a child forcibly. Or maybe it's both, the article adds.
He also said that the reason for arranging maids instead of servants was that men could not conceive unless they were real omegas, so the latter seemed to be the right choice.
I am at a loss for words.
Maybe everything you do is so vulgar.
What are you going to do with a child?
I'm so sick of it that I'm getting goosebumps.
Why are the knights laughing when their colleague almost suffered such a terrible thing?
When I scolded them to stop laughing, the knights laughed even louder.
"Prince, all the knights here are omegas or betas. Because His Highness the Crown Prince had strict orders."
At best, he would have made fake omegas by consuming expensive magic stones, but since he had no income, he had no choice but to laugh.
"Isn't there a problem even if it's an omega? Alpha is here too. Besides, the nobles of Lindbergh don't even mate with Alphas."
"Yeah, everyone is enthusiastic. With that faint pheromone, even the next hit runs away."
The knight called Omega clicked his tongue and said.
"Actually, even the prince didn't experience a hit until he met His Highness, right?"
that's right
It was futile and funny to find out why Carl Lindbergh's hit was delayed.
I tried my best to preserve the traits of that bastard, but in the end, no one had the traits.
"From today to tomorrow, the magic circle will be open. Because the soldiers decided to step over. When the custody of the nobles is over, we signal by setting Kitchener's house on fire."
It was a plan I had heard from Belfry, so I roughly nodded and said that I didn't want to stay here for even one more day, so the knights looked understandable.
"His Highness is anxious to see the Crown Prince. We get it done quickly and without failure if possible."
At the same time, he boasted that even if he failed, he would carry on and run to Heneken.
I regretted inwardly that I had said nothing.
* * *
"I'm anxious."
"What do you mean?"
"I have a hunch that Carl will never come back to Heneken."
Belfrey put down what he was holding and ran to the prince, who had his feet on the desk.
"Are you remorseful? Is the prince up to something else?"
Belfrey felt uneasy at the same time, thinking that the pure-bred prince couldn't be like that, but that the prince's anxiety had some basis.
Adrian shook his head.
"There is no problem with the plan. He calmly took the magic tool I gave him. The knights have also reported that things are going well."
Ah, magic tools.
It was a thing that would save the prince from the crisis of despair, but at the same time, it was also a medium to monitor the prince.
"The raccoon den was set on fire, and the prince is now prowling the castle. In fact, since you handed over the resonance stone, it's only a matter of time before you find the seal."
Belfrey also nodded at the prince's words.
"Hey, he said he was very nervous about the return of the prince because he acted so well that Lindberg Castle was in ruins."
As planned, Prince Carl shook the evil as he could.
It was like sweeping the bowls because the rice was tasteless or breaking ornaments because they were annoying.
The prince wandered around and had accidents.
He didn't like the room, so he changed his room five times in two days and stayed on the same floor as the king's office.
"I'm so fed up that I'm at the level of avoiding it when I hear the sound of the prince's steps."
I thought Adrian would laugh, but since he had a face that I couldn't understand, Belfrey stopped laughing and turned his face.
Why the hell are these two doing this?
"I thought it would be nice to spend my birthday together."
"If things go better than expected, will you come back the same day?"
Worried about not being able to spend your birthday with your first love?
The Lindberg Kingdom is a wind lantern. What kind of comforting sound is this?
What are alphas anyway?
Belfrey clicked his tongue as he repeated the sound he had made a hundred times.
"But Carl, before leaving, said happy birthday to me. It keeps bothering me."
I acted like someone who was determined not to come back.
I tried to masturbate, wondering if he would have anywhere to go if he didn't come back, who grew up like a flower in a greenhouse, but looking back, I was worried that he had a lot of talent.
"It must have been because you couldn't come on time. Stop worrying unnecessarily and get ready for your engagement. What if the prince leaves? It's not like His Highness is going to catch him, and he's not without confidence."
You have to run, it's in the hands of the prince.
"I don't want to do anything coercive to Carl."
Adrian closed his eyes tightly in agony.
Belfry was playing, laughing inwardly.
Whatever the prince wanted was sure to come into his hands.
He was basically a good-natured person, but he was an extreme right-wing alpha.
If the prince had really run away, the prince could have changed completely.
"This is the one who was covered in Your Highness's pheromones from head to toe on the first hit. He can't live without forgetting Her Highness even because of that."
Adrian was also pinning his hopes on that.
Adrian thought that they started off as helpers, but in the middle, they were good partners with matching pheromones, and they gradually became ordinary lovers.
His sudden change of attitude was difficult to understand, but I wanted to believe it was just confusion.
Adrian closed his eyes again.
* * *
After Kitchener left the castle at the word that the residence was on fire, the mercenaries openly began flirting with the prince.
"It's unfortunate that that precious, dominant omega belongs to only one person."
"I hear it's sweeter and tastier than ripe fruit?"
This kind of joke was a nobleman, and there were many people who just said raw, vulgar things.
Heneken's knights contemplated dozens of times whether or not to throw away their gloves.
However, they had no choice but to be patient because they didn't look good against the mercenaries and the knife they were being attacked was ignoring them.
"What can't you do with a snout? Just leave it alone."
Even when the knight burst into anger, the prince busily wandered around the castle.
The seal, which seemed to be easy to find, could not be found either in the king's office or in the king's room.

Episode 38
The prince, who spent the day without income and couldn't sleep, eventually started to dig into the dark castle accompanied by a knight.
Carl quietly talked to himself as he passed through the floors where the servants lived and headed north, suspicious of the only tower in the castle.
"There are good things about traits, but I don't think they are very good for finding true love."
The omega knight who was guarding him was startled.
"Why do you think so?"
"Even if you're not deeply in love with someone, you can just sleep as long as the pheromones work. Then, if we imprint them, they cannot be separated from each other."
The talking prince seemed somehow depressed, so the knight carefully chose his words.
"Prince, are you insecure?"
Intuition as the same omega tells us that the prince is feeling uneasy about his relationship with the crown prince.
The prince shook his shoulders as if he had been stabbed in the head, and shook his head slightly as he climbed the stairs to the tower.
"What is there to be anxious about? just. It's something I've heard before."
Hmmm, the snoring knight thought for a moment.
The perfect dominant alpha and dominant omega that no one can refute.
What would be the anxiety of this beautiful prince like a picture?
Let's think about how the prince came to Heneken and the background of the crown prince.
The knight nodded.
What was lacking between the prince and the crown prince was a bond.
The two dominant traits who came to Heneken as if pushed and unexpectedly faced each other were attracted to each other's strong pheromones, but they probably didn't have enough time or events to actually build a bond.
The prince in front of me is probably the type who thinks that part is important.
His Highness, the Crown Prince, the prince appeared just when I was about to give up because I was afraid I wouldn't connect with anyone, so I guess there was no need to reject the attraction.
When the prince walking in front stopped for a moment as if out of breath, the knight lightly supported the prince's back from behind.
"Even those who live by instinct can distinguish between the comings and goings of the heart. Prince."
"yes?"
The prince asked what he was talking about, and the knight returned a kind smile that his lover praised.
"The compatibility of pheromones we are talking about is not simply a matter of causing excitement."
"Then what else?"
Seeing the prince tilt his head, the knight swallowed.
Even as an omega, the prince was attractive enough.
Long limbs and a neutral face.
As his skinny body gradually gained muscle, he was fascinated by Omega and Alpha.
It's not just the looks.
The quickness and boldness praised highly by the 2nd Knight Commander. The level of knowledge according to the experience that I did not know where it was accumulated was also considerable.
It is a worry that everyone who is a traitor has at least once.
Was this person 'seduced' by my pheromones?
However, those worries become insignificant when you are over 20 years old, but since the prince's hit was delayed, it seems that you are now worried.
As an omega senior, the knight chose what advice to give the prince.
"Is there ever a time when the pheromone of a person you don't like, no, the pheromone of a mediocre person feels enchanting?"
The prince's question was cute, so the knight stepped forward and held out his hand to the prince.
"Can that be? It's so disgusting that I don't even want to breathe face to face."
The prince held his hand without hesitation and the two climbed the stairs together.
"Of course, you have to have a feeling that you like it, so even the scent feels beautiful. Whether it's pheromones or just body odor."
The prince gently lowered his eyes.
It seemed like he was trying to gauge my heart.
'Those who start thinking like this live well for a long time. It looks like he's going to go into the coffin as well.'
The knight laughed heartily.
* * *
If Heneken's spire was as high as piercing the sky, Lindbergh's north tower was less than half that size, so the knight climbed it without much difficulty, but the prince, who lacked basic stamina, gasped for breath.
The knight, who was about to add that he needed to increase his momentum to handle the crown prince, let it go, wondering if His Highness would take care of it.
The resonance stone in the prince's hand began to hum.
The knight and the sword nodded at the same time.
The two quietly approached the tower's door.
The knight who was looking at the doorknob whispered in bewilderment.
"The lock is open."
"Couldn't Kitchener lock it by mistake?"
Would an old fox be a fox for nothing?
It is a well-known fact that he made a tomb with no exit out of fear of being robbed after he died.
The knight shrugged.
I'm sorry.
The door opened slowly and Carl Lindbergh gulped.
"Prince. What are you doing here?"
The prince's eyes widened and the knight wrapped his arms around his wrist.
The person who opened the door was none other than the queen.
The knight could not keep his mouth shut as he alternately looked at the queen and the prince.
They look so similar that it's hard to hide that they're mother and child.
Although the king looked like chewed-up dog gum, the queen was still proud of her gorgeous appearance.
She asked again with a worried face.
"Why did you come all the way up here in the middle of the night?"
"What are you doing here, Mother?"
The prince hid his bewilderment and asked with a cold face.
"I asked first! Prince. What were you trying to do here with a knight from another country?"
Hiding the small resonating stone in his sleeve, the prince naturally tried to enter the door.
If the queen hadn't blocked the door.
"Where are you going?"
Her rich blonde hair and blue eyes, which she had inherited from her two siblings, radiated even in a top without a single light.
"I have something to check."
"There is nothing here."
"Then I think we can go in even further."
The prince glanced at the knight, and the knight quickly covered the queen's mouth and pulled her inward.
In the small, dusty space, the resonance stone inside the prince's sleeve vibrated.
"Ugh, ugh!"
"sorry. Her Highness the Queen."
The queen, with tears in her eyes, glared at the apologetic knight.
In the meantime, Carl stirred the room and found a small box.
The prince, who was carefully examining the box that would not open even if he pulled hard, focused on the magic crystal stuck in the side of the box.
Resuscitation is the fatigue of the fittest.
Carl Lindbergh, since he's in the red, do you mean drop the blood?
Convinced that the upper part of the magic crystal was not flat but slightly concave, the prince borrowed the dagger hanging from the waist of the knight.
"Prince!"
A sharp, well-forged knife can cause a very deep wound if the wrong force is applied.
The worried knight stopped the prince, but the sword pierced his fingertips without hesitation.
"are you okay."
"Ugh!"
As the tip of the dagger touched the tip of the prince's finger, the queen moved as if in a fit.
The difference in power between the knight and the queen was so great that they couldn't escape even this much.
The knife pricked his fingertips, confirmed that red blood was leaking out, and brought it to the concave part.
With a click, the storage box opened and a large seal appeared.
It is so convenient to be able to read formulas.
It was quite a feat to figure out the principle just by reading a single line that a stranger would have to wander for a long time to decipher, but the knife was not a big deal.
In my heart, the 'real final' appeared, putting my worries about what if this was a fake locker to charm people.
After confirming that the seal was inside, the prince immediately closed the locker and wiped the blood off with his clothes.
"Please block the door and let my mother go."
"Would it be okay?"
"It will be fine."
maybe.
As soon as the knight let go of the queen, she ran towards the locker, but the sword blocked her path.
"What are you going to do with that!"
cried the queen, and the sword said, "I'll take it to Henneken." and replied calmly.
The queen, who was at a loss for words for a moment, approached the prince as if to grab him by the collar.
"Do you know what the prince is doing? To sell out the country!"
you dare, you dare
The queen, trembling, collapsed in shock at the prince's words.
"We are not selling the country, we are trying to fix it. Why is your mother like that?"
The queen stiffened.
"What were you doing here? Her mother can't even touch her seal."
"I just... ... . just... ... ."
The queen, who had been stuttering, suddenly sniffed and changed her face.
Like someone who had seen something terribly frightening, he opened his mouth and rushed at the prince.
The knight stopped him, but reached out and grabbed the prince by the collar.
"Prince, please. With the prince!"
"Get out of the way!"
"Get out of the way! What disrespect is this!"
Protecting the whole body of the prince who had scratched his neck with the queen's fingernails, the knight grabbed the queen's arm and pushed her away.
The queen trembled like an aspen tree and screamed loudly.
"Your body smells stench right now! You gave the crown prince your first, right? is that so? What kind of body is this! Roll it like that!"
Carl watched the queen's rudeness without moving an eyebrow.
I thought the queen was a relatively normal person, but was that a mistake?
"I hid my pheromones while giving you medicine! I prevented it from coming into heat like that."
The knight was the only one who was embarrassed to see the queen start to shed tears.
Hiding the omega's pheromones.
It's something that can't be done with ordinary medicine, but you've been feeding it since childhood?
I checked the prince's expression, but the prince had a calm expression.

Episode 39
"Your first one was to be handed over to him, to him."
Who is he?
The queen was no longer looking at the prince.
Not caring that her elegant velvet dress was getting dusty, she knelt down and said that she was finished.
She seemed to be fighting invisible horrors.
One could question who he was and what he was talking about, but the prince stayed still.
When the queen, who struggled for a long time, calmed down a little, the prince opened his mouth.
"What is your relationship with Kitchener? What was your mother trying to do?"
The prince's open question made the queen turn white. She and she seemed to give up within a minute, she confessed obediently that she was trying to change the position of the seal.
It was her job to reposition the seal when Kitchener was away.
"Was the belated taste of glory too sweet? It's not really yours."
The prince spoke coldly, and the queen trembled as she wrapped her arms around her shoulders.
"Did Kitchener treat your mother like a queen?"
It was the first time the knight had ever seen such a cold prince.
"Did you drug a child and persecute your daughter like that because of an insignificant position?"
"Instead, I did everything good for you. You gave me everything I wanted. ah, that's a big deal If he finds out that you were taken away, that person, that person!"
The knight said, 'You're out of your mind,' only the prince could hear.
It was unbelievably ugly that she had been as beautiful as a porcelain doll just before.
The prince asked the knight to knock her out.
A knight wrapped around the slowly collapsing queen took her into custody, and the prince took the royal seal and immediately left Lindbergh Castle.
It was bittersweet that no one looked into the water, even though the queen screamed and smoked it.
"Did you know beforehand that the queen is giving the prince medicine?"
When the driver asked, Carl Lindbergh looked like he was crying.
I was so resolute until just now.
"Actually, not too long ago."
It must have been half a year
After becoming Carl Lindbergh, I never met personally, but when I do, I act like the most loving mother in the world. She's also not informed that she's declining after some time.
Such a mother sent Marco a restorative medicine once a week.
Even if it's fiction. Since I wasn't so ignorant that I couldn't tell if it was poison or not, I threw it away.
"It wasn't poison, they said it was used to change the smell of pheromones."
I also learned about Omega and Alpha from Leah.
<Your pheromones have changed.>
said Leah.
"yes? What are you going to do with that?"
The knight asked curiously, but even Carl couldn't answer that part.
After that fake medicine, the prince paid attention to the relationship between Kitchener, the queen and the king.
The king always looked at the queen longingly, but the queen never left Kitchener's side.
I saw Kitchener going in and out of the queen's room even when the king was lying down in pain.
Externally, Kitchener and the queen were brother and sister, so no one suspected it, but to Carl Lindbergh, an outsider, it seemed odd.
For a brief moment, I wondered if Carl Lindbergh was Kitchener's son.
The relationship between the queen and Kitchener was more complicated and messy than expected.
The fact that she was a foreigner was an open secret, but no one knew that she was in fact from a gypsy village where her body and skills were sold, and that she had been taken by her father and sold as Kitchener's concubine.
She was beautiful in appearance and close to a dominant omega, but she was said to have a physical defect, so Kitchener gave her to the then-prince, the current king.
Kitchener continued to intimidate the queen, blaming her for her origins.
It was closer to gaslighting than intimidation, and the queen had blunted her sense that she was committing an affair.
Even the king had long since ceased to be a man, and the queen's heat cycle hadn't stopped, so it was only natural that Kitchener couldn't refuse whenever she found her.
Just as Marco was blindly loyal to Carl Lindbergh for only saving him from starvation, she idolized Kitchener, who saved her from repeated heat cycles.
After she passed out after reciting unsolicited stories, people tried to activate magic after seeing the prince and his party escape unexpectedly, but nothing happened in Lindbergh's castle.
Interestingly, the Archduke Balvenie dug a trap little by little for the magic crystals that he had delivered to Lindberg.
If a person with a magic crystal produced and delivered by Heneken is nearby, it cannot be activated without direct magical energy injection.
The queen was the only person who could directly use magic in Lindbergh, but unfortunately she was weak physically and mentally.
As soon as the prince relayed the news to the other knights that he had headed for Heneken with his seal, the situation within Lindberg began to change rapidly.
Heneken's soldiers, who had detained the Lords of Lindbergh, opened the gates in unison.
People were confused, but they were busy filling their hungry stomachs first. I put on warm clothes for the first time.
In Heneken, the last elite unit was dispatched.
There were so many of them that they couldn't ride the magic circle, but they were all jockeys and crossed the border in one day.
In line with the purpose of minimizing the shedding of blood, a temporary lord was set up and a trial was to be held in the presence of Leia Lindbergh to determine the wrongs of the nobles.
When the prince left the castle, there was a physical fight between the mercenaries and the Heneken knights, and blood was spilled. The knights, who didn't want to see the mercenaries' absurd words and actions, beat the mercenaries with the sheath of their swords.
Leaving the castle behind and starting to run toward the camp, the prince summoned a knight to stop him.
"When detaining royalty, please tell them to treat them as leniently as my mother."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything other than watch until the trial is underway."
The prince could not hide his melancholy expression.
Even though everything ended well, the knight looked back anxiously at the prince with an uneasy expression.
* * *
"Carl Lindbergh."
"sister."
Leah, who had been waiting near Heneken's magic circle, ran in front of the sword.
"Kitchener is gone."
"Is it gone?"
"Yeah, the people who looked at Kitchener's sister-in-law told me about it. They say they're searching now."
I don't know about the other guy, but I have to catch him, but the prince who was doing took out the seal from his bosom.
"Sister, please accept this."
"Why don't you take it yourself?"
"I have other things to do."
"you?"
What else do you have to do after you've done what you've done so far?
Leah tilted her head, but didn't ask.
* * *
And the prince is gone.
It was just one day before the birthday banquet of Prince Adrian Henkenken.
The Heneken royal family was upset.
Originally, Leah, who should have headed to Lindberg after stamping the seal on the document, was bound by Henken.
Adrian felt as if all the blood drained from his body.
The continued anxiety was because of this.
On the one hand, there was a suspicion that there was an ulterior motive by intertwining the disappearance of Chancellor Kitchener and the prince's whereabouts, but the suspicion remained.
It was because those who met the prince in person at the imperial castle knew that the prince was too naive to have any plans, and the prince disappeared after entering Henkenken.
Whether or not he was involved in a crime such as kidnapping was dismissed when his older sister, Leah Lindbergh, meekly stated, "I handed over the seal and said that I had something to do, and ran away somewhere."
"You really don't know where he went."
Adrian visited Leah on the third day.
"I don't know."
Leah gave the same answer to the same question on the third day.
The prince hesitated for a long time near the magic circle that day.
Leah, who thought it was strange, asked if something was wrong, but he held out the seal without answering.
And he urged the knights to go to the castle first, sign the document as soon as possible, and restore Lindbergh to normal.
And he told Leah that he wanted to travel for a while.
Even when the prince got angry at you, asking what kind of trip you were on and whether you thought you were a commoner, you stood firm.
I thought it was a daily joke.
While running for a long time, Leah, who was running in front, found the prince's horse running at the rear without an owner.
"It would have been easier to find if it had disappeared from a nearby village, but the problem disappeared near the imperial castle."
