Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 921: Unwavering loyalty

Six hours, that was all it took for the former second prince to quell the unrest in the former Midra Kingdom.

When it was over, he even had me come to the balcony of the castle to announce that our kingdom was taking over the Midra Kingdom.

There were many people that came to the ceremony that seemed unwilling to accept this, but it didn't seem like they said a thing.

I could see that it was all because it was the former second prince making this announcement that they chose to accept this. Though at the same time, it seemed like many of them wanted the second prince to take over as the new king instead.

Their faces did look better when I announced that the former second prince would be the regent for the area, but it didn't seem much better.

Once that was over, the former second prince had his men take care of the rest before leading me to the royal study.

The two of us sat down while the guards just stood on the side.

The former second prince looked at me and we both agreed to let the guards leave, though Cecilia did stay behind.

The former second prince raised a brow to question it before it seemed like he had remembered something. He looked at Cecilia for a few seconds before giving a nod as if agreeing to her being here.

The three of us just sat there in silence for a bit before the former second prince started making some tea for all three of us.

It was at that moment that I said, "Former second prince, no, Regent Andrew, do you want to tell me what your goal is now?"

The former second prince, the one who was now known as Regent Andrew stopped when he heard this. However, he didn't remain still for long as he continued making the tea.

Only when he finished pouring the cups for all three of us did he sit back down.

Even after sitting back down, he didn't answer my question as he just casually took a sip of his

tea.

It was only after he put his cup down that he said, "I wish to serve you with unwavering loyalty, that is why I've put on this show."

The way that he said this was as if he had no hesitation at all.

It was as if he found that there wasn't a single thing wrong with what he said, even though his words seemed like they were wrong in the first place.

After saying this, Andrew looked me right in the eyes as if he was waiting for my answer.

My expression didn't change as I looked at him, but then I suddenly gave a laugh before saying, "Is that really all that there is to it?"

With a faint smile, Andrew said, "That is all there is to it."

He looked at me with a serious look before saying, "I can see that you are someone special. With the way that you ended the war, the way that you built a relationship with both the dwarves and the elves, the way that you tamed all of these wyverns, I can tell that you possess knowledge that no one else does."

I couldn't help feeling surprised, but I kept my face calm on the surface.

Andrew didn't seem to mind as he said, "I know that for someone like this, it's better to join them or take care of them as soon as possible." A faint smile appeared on his lips again as he said, "I've chosen to join you."

The way that he said this made his thoughts very clear, but there was something else that confused me.

Slightly knitting my brows, I asked, "Why?"

It seemed like a redundant question, but it was one that I had to ask.

This time, Andrew didn't answer right away.

After a slight pause, he said, "All I want is the prosperity of my people. I know that my father and his cronies would never be able to do that, so I chose to side with your majesty."

Then in a colder voice he said, "Of course, if your majesty strays down the wrong path..."

He didn't finish his words and there was no need for him to finish these words.

Hearing him say this and seeing the way that he looked, I couldn't help revealing a faint smile.

That was because he reminded me of the former fourth prince.

The game did set them as rivals, but it seemed that they were more similar than one thought.

Both of them just wanted what was best for their people, it turned out.

Well, this former second prince was a bit more extreme than the former fourth prince as he personally executed his own father and the nobles that once served him.

But I could tell that this was something that he did to show his determination.

Since that was the case...

"Well, I don't know anything about your unwavering loyalty, but I do understand your conviction. All I can say is that I won't trust your so called unwavering loyalty, but I do trust your conviction to your people."

Then in a colder voice, I said, "But if you ever cause harm to the people that I care about..."

I didn't finish my words just like Andrew had done earlier, but there was no need for me to finish these words in the first place.

Andrew revealed a smile when he heard this before bowing his head to say, "It is an honour to serve your majesty."

I gave a nod before saying, "Before you put any of your plans in action, at least give me a rough outline. That is the only thing that I request from you."

Andrew gave a slow nod in response with a faint smile on his lips.

He might be more extreme than the former fourth prince, but the former fourth prince had mellowed out.

So there was no reason why he shouldn't be able to.
