Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 904: Sincere show of power
Chapter 904: Sincere show of power
Once the king of the Midra Kingdom threw this matter over to the second prince, it didn't seem like he cared anymore as he dismissed the court.
The ministers also all left as if they were relieved in leaving this matter to the second prince. That went to show how much trust was with the second prince to handle this matter.
Or it could be said that they just didn't want to take care of this matter themselves, which was why they handed it all off to the second prince to handle.
This was a demonstration of the attitude of those in charge of this Midra Kingdom.
But the second prince didn't seem to care either as he led us outside.
When we were on the training field of the castle's guards, he suddenly turned around to look at Klein and said with a bow of his head, "I sincerely apologize for my negligence that allowed this country to fall into a state like this. I have no words to show my deepest apologies, so I hope that you will accept my actions from now on as an apology."
Klein was naturally taken aback when he saw this, but it wasn't just him that was taken aback. Even I was taken aback, not to mention all of the other royal guards that were with us.
They just didn't believe that the second prince would suddenly bow his head like this.
After a moment of silence, Klein went forward as if he was going to help the second prince up before realizing that this was inappropriate. So instead, he just said in an awkward voice, "Your highness, this isn't really appropriate, is it?"
The second prince didn't raise his head as he said, "There's no need to worry, there's no one around who will see this other than us."

Everyone was shocked to hear this before looking around the area, but we found that he was right.
Even though we were out in the open, it didn't seem like there was a single person that was here.
And this was in a place like the royal castle which should have been the busiest place.
After all, this was the center of the Midra Kingdom.
Excluding the large number of servants that should have been in this place, there would be many ministers, guards, and other people that would be moving around in this place. There shouldn't have been a place where there was no one around, especially not such an open place like this.
This was clearly something that had been arranged by the second prince as a demonstration. As for what he was demonstrating...it was the power that he wielded in the Midra Kingdom. In a way, this was his way of showing that we should feel at ease about leaving this matter to him.
I wasn't the only one that realized this, the others all realized this and raised their guards a bit. However, Klein raised a hand for them to all calm down.
Once he calmed them down, Klein looked at the second prince and asked, "Your highness, what is the meaning of this?"
The second prince didn't raise his head as he said, "This is my sincerity."
Those were the four simple words that he said and it seemed like he stood by them, but as for what he meant by this...Klein really didn't have a single clue.
I was the only one that knew what he meant by this.
He was referring to the deal that he made with me previously about turning over the Midra Kingdom to the Kite Kingdom.
He wanted to show that he had the power to make it a reality, so that we should trust him to plan what happened next.
But there was a part of me that still hesitated over this.
To be honest, this level of power and influence was actually beyond what both the prime minister and I had expected from the second prince.
This was a level of power that even surpassed what I had seen in the game.
In the end, it was a good thing that I had already figured out a way to talk to Klein without doing anything.
This was a simple use of the wind magic that Moon possessed.
That was why she had been by my side the entire time.
"Tell him that you want to speak alone."
Klein was surprised to hear this, but there was also a trace of relief that was on his face when he heard this. After all, he had no idea how he was supposed to respond to the second prince's sudden statement, so he had been in a bind.
Since he had his orders, Klein just simply said with a cough, "I understand your sincerity. Is there a place where we can talk in private?"
This time, it was the second prince's turn to be surprised.
He looked up a bit at Klein before fully standing up and giving a nod of agreement.
After standing up, he gestured in a certain direction and said, "This way please."
Klein gave a nod before looking at my group.
I just simply started following behind Klein without a word, but the second prince slightly
knitted his brows when he saw us moving over.
With a cough, the second prince said, "Sir Klein, this is...?"
He didn't finish his sentence, but it was clear what he was implying with this.
Klein just calmly said without any hesitation, "These are my trusted aides. It isn't a problem for them to come along with us."
Seeing that the second prince still had a trace of doubt on his face, Klein said, "You can even say that they are a representative of his majesty and the prime minister."
At this, the second prince no longer hesitated and nodded in agreement to this, though there was a trace of surprise in his eyes.
But he led us back into the castle and into a part that didn't have any people before arriving at a secret study.
