“… …”
Seeing that Malsim was silent again, the "investor" immediately took advantage of the situation and pursued him.
"More importantly, don't forget that beside the Ninth Princess there is that person—"
"The world's number one genius today, Hulim Haieral!"
The moment he heard the name, Malsim's eyes darkened.
"Investors" noticed this change keenly and stepped up their offensive again.
"Mr. Malsim, don't you think the combination of the heir to the empire and the descendant of a genius national knight sounds familiar?"
"Oh~, that's strange. It seems there has been such a combination in history, but I can't remember it clearly. Mr. Malsim, could you remind me~?"
“That’s enough—!!!”
Malsim yelled angrily.
The "investor" smiled and closed his mouth, no longer speaking, just staring at Malsim silently.
The "investor" knew that Malsim would make that choice from the beginning, and he was just here to give him a push.
And now that he has pushed it, it is time for him to make a decision...
After a while, Malsim's emotions gradually calmed down. He looked at the "investor" with cold eyes. After a long while, he said in a deep voice:
"...Tell me your solution."
Upon hearing this, the "investor"'s face suddenly broke into a bright smile.
"A wise choice~!"
"The solution is simple. All we have to do is prevent the Ninth Princess from graduating successfully. Furthermore, although the descendant of the Protector of the Nation Knight is a genius, a genius who hasn't grown up is just a genius..."
Malsim frowned.
"That's easy for you to say, but how could a member of the royal family be killed so easily?! Even if I succeeded, the enraged empire would track me down sooner or later."
"Don't worry~, I won't do that. Ninth Princess Alicia won't be in danger of her life. I'll just let her suffer some minor injuries and barely graduate from Manax. That way, the royal family won't investigate too seriously, right?"
"Furthermore, if a situation like that happens, the three heirs will take advantage of the situation and make things worse, and the investigation will most likely come to nothing~!"
Upon hearing this, Malsim pondered for a few seconds and then nodded.
"...You're right, but what exactly do you want to do?"
"I must tell you, Your Highness, Drehak, there is no way he will support our actions."
"I'm naturally prepared for this. Next, I'll persuade the Third Prince, Diodore, to secretly instigate a fight between the other three. At that time, you, Your Excellency, will only need to make some minor moves to push things forward."
"I don't think His Highness Drehak will blame you in this case. He will just think that it was Third Prince Diodor who started the trouble first."
Malsim frowned.
"You want us to fight with Her Highness Felenna and Her Highness Alicia?"
"Haha~, don't worry. Letting the three of you fight first is just a deception. The real purpose is to prepare for the next irreconcilable conflict..."
The "investor" then told Malsim the complete plan.
After hearing the detailed plan, Malsim looked surprised.
"Is this...really possible?"
The "investor" smiled confidently and said:
"If nothing unexpected happens, it will be done naturally~."
"By that time, the Fourth Princess and the Third Prince will both be devastated and no longer be able to compete for that position. Furthermore, the Ninth Princess will not be able to graduate with distinction and will have lost her most important supporter. Her faction will naturally decline."
"His Highness Drehak's position is truly unshakable~!"
“… …”
Marsim hesitated for a long time, and finally a cruel light flashed in his eyes.
"Okay! I'll do as you say. I hope you can really do it."
"Hehe~, please rest assured and leave it to me..."
... ...
Inside the temple ruins.
"...I see. They're not just targeting Alicia, they're targeting me too."
Hulim glanced at the magic circle beneath her feet.
“No wonder they prepared something like this.”
"Haha~, you're really calm~!"
"Even panicking won't help, right?"
The "investor" smiled when he heard this.
"Oh~? That makes sense. As expected of the greatest genius of the millennium~! Such a mindset is truly admirable~!"
"Can I ask you another question?"
"Hehe~, feel free to ask~."
The "investor" smiled indifferently.
"you--"
Hulim's originally calm tone suddenly became a little colder.
"—Is it from Gross?"
“… …”
The "investor" was stunned and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
"That's really surprising... How did you figure that out? I've never revealed this before."
"breath."
Hulim answered,
"The aura you exude is the same as those of Guros. I have dealt with Guros many times and am very familiar with their aura."
"I see~, this is really interesting~! Hehehe..."
The "investor" laughed.
"Honestly, I was very confident in my ability to hide my identity, so I dared to set foot in Langard. But I didn't expect that it would be exposed due to the atmosphere. It seems that I have to be more cautious in the future~"
