What Universe is This Again?

XVII

The atmosphere in the Imperial Palace right now is colder than the snowy mountains to the north, fierier than the deserts of the west, hotter than the summer of the south, and more desolate than the east. Take not for three weeks now.

Everyone can feel the tension and Claude's short temper these days.

They're going through hell right now with paperwork and strict scrutiny from him.

YOUR HIGHNESSES!!!!! PLEASE COME BACK HOME NOW!!! SAVE US PLEASE!!!

But there are the twins enjoying the afternoon sunshine in the greens of the Artha Region—

"This is heaven!"

—while drinking liquor.

Yes, you read it right. Our eight-year-old prince is currently, wasting himself for the freedom he's experiencing away from that dirtbag Claude.

<while Claude looks as if he's ready to murder.>

A life without that dirtbag bastard, a life without the nagging, and only with a few bastards loitering around him.

"So... what do we need to do?" Athy looked at her brother. She looks at Nathan Robane who came with them on the day they left.

"Make that dirtbag wait forever."

Athy could not help but laugh. Yhan declared that Claude would miss them, and they had been receiving calls from the Imperial Palace. Yhan, on the other hand, continues to reject them all with a devilish expression on his face.

And for the nth time, the communication device is ringing once more.

"You miss us, eh? Yes, miss us... we will never come back there now. HAHAHAH," he says, "Suffer, you dirtbag! Suffer you motherfucking bastard! SUFFER!!!!"

Chanting is worse than being a lunatic.

"What are we going to do here, Yhannie?"

"We'll retrieve some kind of wealth while we're here." Yhan smiled and rose from his seat. He looked at the mine the moment he got off the carriage.

"Raon, Choi Han."

"Yes Yhan-nim."

"What are we going to do today, Human?"

They notice the Braums looking at them.

Athnanasia also stepped onto the ground.

"This is Braum's personal mine! Please leave!"

"What disrespect to the Sun of the Obelian Empire," Ron, who accompanied him, said.

All of the mine guards looked down and noticed the Obelian Imperial Family Crest.

"You are in the way of the Royal Inspector," Athanasia said.

"I, it's..."

"Destroy that iron gate, Choi Han," Yhan said.

Choi Han rushes to the Iron Gate and draws his sword from its sheath. A loud bang echoed, and the entire gate leading to the mine proper was demolished in an instant.

"M, monster!"

"Aigoo," Yhan smirks as he enters what is ostensibly Braum's territory, "what a rude comment. My knight is just one of the strongest that is."

"Felly," Athanasia said, turning to face Felly, "have the imperial knights clean them up."

"Yes, Your Highness," Felix smiled, completely smitten by this daring move.
