Chapter 299
Margrave’s Bastard Son was The Emperor
Letâs die.
Prince Noah thought this while tightly gripping his cursed ears. They were both the royal familyâs mark and their curse. He recalled his parents who looked at him with both pride and worry.
Letâs die.
His tail curled up involuntarily. This was the great Bariel Empire, of all places. Theyâd aimed to usher in a new era through the alliance of three nations, but that opportunity had mercilessly flown away. Because of his incompetence.
Letâs die.
He knew well how negatively beast-folk were perceived by the public. Even his father, a king, had lived his entire life in hiding, saying no one would understand. Thus, strategic marriages to strengthen national power were nowhere to be found in Cliffordâs history.
Letâs dieâ¦
Yes. That was probably the best path now. Erase his existence through death, eliminate the shameful fact that beast-folk existed in the royal family.
Prince Noahâs eyes welled with tears at this end heâd never once considered before. Heâd at least wanted to depart with his peopleâs farewell.
ââ¦Though weâll need to see the results for details, my initial assessment suggests nothing unusual.â
But then came Ianâs matter-of-fact voice.
Prince Noah rolled his eyes inside the blanket. The pooled tears rolled down with the movement. What was this man saying?
âWe were quite worried since you postponed the audience with His Highness, but this is fortunate. Itâs far from the dragon abnormal reaction. Though weâre still investigating, the main symptoms are fever with chills and hemoptysis.â
At Ianâs words, Prince Noah sniffled.
Did he not see?
But no? Thatâs impossible?
He perked his ears up even more.
âMUHAHAHA! I really am amazing!â
âPe-perhaps are you a beast-folk too? Sorry if Iâm being rude by being too surprised.â
âIâm not! No, I should say heâs not either! You seem to misunderstand. It-itâs festival time, isnât it? In Clifford, we dress up to enjoy the festivities. Doesnât Bariel do the same?â
The Ministry of Magic headâs group remained boisterous, and May was sweating bullets trying to stop them.
Noah felt Ian still sitting beyond the blanket. Silently waiting for him to come out first.
Noah gradually pulled back the cloth while gripping his trembling hands.
Rustle
A considerable beauty with golden hair and green eyes sat straight-backed, looking down at him. Perhaps due to the difference in eye level, for an instant, Noah felt like he really was a small animal.
Ian smiled gently and tilted his head. His hair scattered elegantly with the movement.
âPleased to meet you, Prince Noah. Itâs an honor to meet you like this. Let me formally introduce myself again. I am Ian Hielo, Head of the Ministry of Magic.â
âYour Highness! How can you come out?! Please go back inside!â
âWow, awesome. Ears going boing!â
âAh, g-greetings. I am Romandro, assistant to the Ministry of Magic head.â
Noahâs ears drooped. May rushed over to embrace him protectively, and the prince just sighed while patting her back.
It was too late. His identity was exposed, this was the Bariel imperial palace, and their opponent was Ian Hielo, the real power holder. He wasnât someone they could handle by force, nor could they beg for goodwill to let this pass.
âYour Highness.â
May firmly gripped both his cheeks and whispered. Her eyes were moist â she seemed to know what he was thinking.
More than the exposed secret, Noahâs inner fracturing.
This was the true crisis.
âPlease come to your senses.â
The beast ears and tail didnât just change his outer appearance. They made the positive, sharp, and fresh prince think and feel like a beast.
Just like now. To appear so dejected, as if giving up everything. She frowned while daringly pinching his cheeks hard.
Once some time passes, heâll return to normal. We just need to hold these people off until then. When the ears and tail disappear, how could they insist heâs a beast-folk? Weâll deny it to death â call it slander, express outrage, say theyâre crazy. Then we can return home.
They could consult the royal elders after returning. Though relations with Bariel wouldnât be the same, wasnât Clifford the furthest country from the center of the three nations? For the kingdomâs dignity and the royal familyâs existence, they could even sever ties.
Everything might feel catastrophic now, but it would be fine.
The royal family loved Noah, and the people loved Noah.
âWell then, shall we stand first?â
Ian stepped back and indicated the table. The matters they needed to discuss werenât appropriate for the bed.
Noah nodded and followed Ian to sit in a chair. His fluffy tail dragged limply on the floor.
âSince we have little information about beast-folk, please forgive any rudeness I might show.â
Rudeness? Theyâd be fortunate if it stopped at rudeness. Beast-folk lived in constant fear of having their hides stripped off.
Ian gestured for May to sit too. Looking at his condition, Prince Noah seemed to need a spokesperson right now.
ââ¦â¦â
Well, letâs hear what you have to say.
Noah and May bit their lips while waiting for Ianâs words. What would he demand using this as leverage? Incomparably greater tribute than before? Or a vassal relationship? Knowing the royal familyâs secret, he might even aim for national subversion.
As their assumptions reached despair, Noahâs eyes reddened again. Everything felt like it was his fault. But May held his hand under the table, letting him hold back his tears.
âLet me ask first. Since our conversation from now will be the cornerstone of mutual trust, please speak without deception.â
ââ¦Speak.â
âBetween Bariel and Cliffordâs borders, the Magic Anomaly Detection Device recorded higher than normal readings. Given that you hide such an incredible secret, I cannot help but consider other possibilities.â
Cannot help but consider?
Beric just picked his ear, wondering what that meant. Ian was now suspecting beast-folk involvement with the Magic Anomaly Detection Device.
Of course, Ian knew beast-folk were just humans with different appearances, but he deliberately said this to provoke Noah.
âIf all Clifford citizens are beast-folk and that caused the deviceâs abnormal readings, this cannot be overlooked.â
âWhat are you saying? Beast-folk have no magic power.â
âSome claim that, but when appearance changes, donât physical senses change too? That alone already exceeds human bounds.â
âEven between races, physical differences exist. It stops at that level.â
âIs that so? Then youâre saying beast-folk have no connection to the Magic Anomaly Detection Device?â
âRight. Cliffordâs citizens have no connection to magic power or beast-folk. There might be some we havenât identified. But officially, our last mage died ten years ago.â
Though the prince hadnât noticed, Ian caught the childâs critical verbal slip.
Cliffordâs citizens have no connection to beast-folk.
This meant only Noah inherited that blood, and inheriting the blood meant the entire royal family was the same.
When Ian smiled and curved his eyes, Noahâs tail unconsciously stood straight up. As if tension had reached its limit.
âI understand. For now, it would be best to discuss this with His Highness Jin. Since your condition seems better than expected, shall we proceed with the audience?â
May reflexively shook her head.
There was a huge difference between the Ministry of Magic head witnessing this and Barielâs future emperor witnessing it. It would be irreversible. This wasnât something that could be resolved by flat denial.
âThe princeâs condition is still very poor. Though extremely regrettable, we cannot meet His Highness. If youâre thinking of forcing us, please stop. Our carriages are lighter now that weâve emptied the tribute gifts, so our return journey wonât be heavy.â
A declaration that theyâd rather return than meet the prince. Theyâd shown enough sincerity by traveling such a long distance. Forget the three-nation alliance â the nation came first. With the royal foundation at stake, what was there to fear?
Ian gestured for them to calm down first.
âShould guestsâ departing steps be heavy? Of course not. Please remember. This is a period when new history opens in Bariel, a time when the worldâs blessings converge. If Prince Noahâs hands arenât heavy when he returns, His Highness will scold me.â
What scheme was this? Noah and Mayâs eyes narrowed simultaneously. With their similar hair colors, they looked exactly alike.
âHowever, this isnât something I can keep from His Highness, so I will report it. When might you grant an audience?â
ââ¦Tomorrow, or the day after.â
âHmm.â
When Ian tapped the table with his fingertips, Noahâs ears twitched in sync. Trying to gauge what he was thinking inside. For the man who held sway over the Bariel imperial palace to let this pass without any demandsâ¦
âThen-â
Right! I knew it!
Noahâs eyes flashed as he shrank back. May too. They steeled themselves internally. Bring it on! Whatever it was, it wouldnât go as he wished.
âWhat about tonightâs banquet?â
ââ¦Pardon?â
A rather anticlimactic question after their expectations. When May unconsciously responded in confusion, Ian elaborated.
âThe banquet. Isnât it the first gathering of all three nations with His Highness? The Burgos delegation will arrive soon too. The occasion will be arranged around sunset.â
âWe must regretfully declineâ¦â
âOne missed appointment in the ceremony schedule is enough.â
Havenât you already used that one time by postponing Noah and Jinâs meeting? It was pressure to attend the banquet.
Noah just silently touched his ears with a troubled expression.
âBut-â
âIf you wish, the Ministry of Magic will assist you.â
For those who split the heavens and burn eternal flames, whatâs the big deal about hiding some ears and a tail? At this sudden proposal, Noah and May exchanged glances. Why was he acting like this?
âPlease do attend and celebrate the start of His Highnessâs appointment ceremony together.â
The three nations and Bariel.
Those bound by alliance and the empireâs ten-year-old child.
Having experienced Eriponyâs personality firsthand, they could predict how the banquetâs atmosphere would flow.
ââ¦âTogetherâ celebrate His Highness Jinâs appointment ceremony?â
May cautiously echoed, catching Ianâs intent. Sheâd guessed Bariel would be suspicious of the three nationsâ alliance, but hadnât known they held such conviction.
âThough Iâll attend too, I canât join the dining table. How about, shall we prepare now?â
As he said this, Ian carefully examined Noahâs ears and tail.
It would be quite a good opportunity from Cliffordâs perspective. Hadnât they considered not attending because of Prince Noahâs appearance?
Setting aside that they couldnât refuse since this side held the sword, with the magesâ help they could at least appear at this first gathering of the three nationsâ alliance.
May nodded at Noah with a meaningful look.
âPlease help us prepare.â
âVery well. Since I canât entrust this to others, Iâll return shortly. Ah yes. And Prince Noah. Iâm sorry, but could you cut off a bit of your tail fur?â
A kind of proof. Since the fox appearance would fade with time, he was requesting something to leave as evidence beforehand. Beric seized the moment to approach and offer his dagger.
âIâll lend you this! Or should I cut it myself? Though Iâve never just cut fur before.â
ââ¦â¦â
Noah reluctantly cut off some tail fur. Romandro carefully received it in his handkerchief, smiling awkwardly.
âWell then, please rest. Beric. You stay here.â
âMe? Why?â
âIâll be back soon.â
Heâd serve as both guard and blocker of outside contact. Beric flopped onto the sofa with a shrug, while Noah slunk back into the blankets.
Ah, the world felt dizzy, like it had flipped in an instant.
âYour Highness, are you alright?â
âYour Highness, can you drink well?â
âHey, you-â
Creeak
Bang!
The door closed behind May and Bericâs bickering. Romandro wiped his cold sweat and asked Ian:
âIan. Is it alright to let Prince Noah go? I think it might be fine to have him not attend at all. Ah, my heartâs still pounding, really.â
Though they could completely exclude him as Romandro suggested, for now it was better to have Noah attend.
Becauseâ
Clip-clop!
âLord Ian. The Burgos delegation has just entered the central district.â
There was someone living life twice.
They needed to see how heâd react when faced with variables. Whether to Prince Noahâs variable, orâ¦
Regarding the unfamiliar existence called Ian Hielo.
Ian nodded and directed:
âHurry and prepare to receive the guests.â
