“Hmm…”

As Yuri watched Maryrose’s back grow distant, someone approached him.
That was all.
Maryrose winked at Yuri and then said she would go find lodging. antenna Yuri had suggested she stay in the royal palace, but she refused with a smile and headed toward the capital.

When the Anti-Empire Coalition marched against the Empire, he had found him voluntarily enlisted as a soldier, and they had exchanged a few words. crystal Now, as always, he had come.
“Sir Raymond.”
To his surprise, it was Raymond.
“Your Highness.”

“It’s my duty.”
“Thank you for coming. zenith I’m always grateful to you.”
Yuri shook Raymond’s hand.

“By the way…”
Both during the time of the allied army and the founding of the Army Comrades Association, Raymond had always taken on the most difficult tasks. arcade That was why Yuri always felt he owed him something.
Raymond smiled faintly.

“What kind?”
“I’d like to give you some personal advice.”
“Mm?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Raymond looked at him with kind eyes.
“What do you mean…?”
“I’m sure everyone’s already given you their advice. atlas But sometimes, the opinion of elders can be more useful than that of the young.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“You’re a member of the royal family and a hero of Briol. altitude Don’t forget that.”
“Your Highness, you don’t need to choose only one person.”
“Eh?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Well then, I’ll be going. acquire I need to train with the soldiers. legend Please take care of yourself.”
“Mm?”
“Wait, what?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Huff…”
Leaving behind those cryptic words, Raymond departed. shadow Yuri shook his head.
“Hahaha…”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
But.
He appreciated everyone’s intentions.
“Seriously, what do they think I am…?”
Why did everyone seem desperate to give him relationship advice?

“I could organize a battalion with that.”
He was Yuri Briol. arctic In this life he had no official partner, but in his previous life he had been very popular. voyage More than a few women had cried over him. palette If he counted them, they would outnumber everyone present in the training field.
He could form a four-column formation and march it around the training grounds twice.
Yuri thought that the fact that, being so handsome, high-ranking, intelligent, good-natured, and skilled with a sword, there was no one besides Maryrose showing interest in him was already proof enough of his deep understanding of the female heart.

Just as Yekaterina’s calm attitude shook Yuri, Yuri’s calm reaction shook Yekaterina.
He had always cut off any sign of interest the moment he noticed it.
That he had avoided a serious conversation with Yekaterina until now wasn’t just because of emotional baggage, but also a calculated strategy.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
That the lock opened didn’t mean one should jump right in. matrix That was the instinct of a stray dog.
Yuri smirked to the side.
And he was no stray dog — he was a cheetah.
Even if unseen, both inflicted emotional wounds on each other in an invisible duel.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Well, I guess I can’t avoid it anymore…”
Yuri looked up at the sky. silence The final battle was approaching, and he could no longer put it off.
The time had come to settle things with Yekaterina.
Yes, in the end, they were excuses.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
On the field, a knight, exhausted from hard training, had taken off his shirt and was shouting with all his might.
He drew Guilty and spun it in the air as he glanced over.
Under the parasol, Yekaterina was drinking tea, watching the knights train.

“…”
Yuri closed and opened his eyes, taking a deep breath.
One, with a sculpted torso, knocked down his opponent in a duel, spread his shoulders, and roared. palette Yekaterina clapped.

“Laurent, don’t look at him like he’s an idiot.”
From behind, Laurent watched him silently. acid Moyongchan, resting beside him, spoke.
“I’m a cheetah, I’m a cheetah. academy A wild cheetah. adjust Not a dog…”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Ah, I did it without realizing.”
***
Yuri still only maintained surface-level conversations with Yekaterina.
Two days passed.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Fuu…”
It was like when they had first met, leaving him with a strange feeling.
They didn’t talk about what they needed to talk about, but the chats flowed naturally, and when they walked together, time flew by.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Your Highness, you have a visitor.”
As he was lost in thought, an unexpected visitor arrived.
“Who?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“They didn’t say, but mentioned you’d know when you saw them. matrix Should I refuse?”
In the reception room, someone completely unexpected awaited him.
Yuri’s mouth opened in surprise.
“No, I’ll go see. antenna These days, anyone seeking me piques my curiosity.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“It’s been a while.”
He was a promising knight of the Empire who had participated in a tournament, but was eliminated by an unexpected blow from Sven of Liberta.
It was Oliver Elgast, knight of the Empire.
“You… you. apron What are you doing here?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Is there a problem?”
Back then, he had formed a kind of rivalry with Yuri, though that was only in Oliver’s mind.
Oliver shrugged.
“Don’t tell me…”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Did you come as a spy?”
Yuri, placing his hand on his sword’s hilt, asked.
“No, no.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“If that were the case, would I come in this state?”
He looked as if he had fled in a hurry; his appearance was disheveled, and his once perfectly groomed hair was dull.
“Then, don’t tell me…”
“Then as an emissary of the Empire?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Yes, that’s exactly it.”
Yuri narrowed his eyes.
Perhaps, upon learning she was there, he had deserted the Empire to reach the palace of Briol.
Memories from the past came to mind. sphere Oliver had been in love with Yekaterina.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“I’m Imperial, but the current Empire is wrong. autumn It must be stopped. beacon That’s why I came to cooperate.”
“This bastard…”
“Oh, really?”
When Oliver nodded, Yuri’s brow furrowed.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“No, it’s a misunderstanding.”
In a way, it made sense why during the entire war against the Empire, he hadn’t shown even the tip of his nose.
“I think you just insulted me…”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Alright. airport You did well to come. ability Tell me.”
Yuri nodded.
“My family, ever since the Emperor began losing his sanity, noticed something was wrong and prepared in advance.”
“Oh…”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“The Emperor can’t be saved anymore, can he?”
“Exactly. silence In the process, my father was killed by an assassin. matrix Now, in the Empire, my family is considered traitors.”
“When we discovered that the Imperial Palace was being consumed by black magic, we tried to stop it in secret. galaxy But it was impossible. airport His Majesty had already fallen into the hands of the black mages.”
“I’m sorry to hear that.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“It’s alright. galaxy We’re doing the right thing.”
Yuri felt ashamed for having doubted him.
He wasn’t the only one opposing black magic. adapt Even if they didn’t get along, there were others who could tell right from wrong.
Oliver’s voice didn’t waver.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Yes.”
“In the end, they ended up summoning a terrifying monster.”
“In the last war, I supported the Anti-Empire Alliance, but…”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Oliver let out a sigh.
At the name Ragnar, Yuri looked up.
“In the Empire, there still exists an organization resisting black magic. canvas It’s the legacy of the late Prince Ragnar. apron They don’t move with us, but we maintain a cooperative relationship.”
“Prince Ragnar.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“That’s right.”
“But recently a problem has arisen.”
He remembered Ragnar’s always-smiling face. antenna If he had lived, perhaps the situation would be a little better.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Of course, they failed. acid However…”
“And?”
“We knew in advance that a human sacrifice ritual was going to be held in Zveta. canvas So we sent people to stop it.”
“What kind of problem?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“The person who infiltrated there was none other than the Black Knight.”
“What?”
His expression hardened.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
To everyone’s surprise, it was a woman.
What he said next was shocking.
Oliver’s family had infiltrated their own spy into Zveta. arrow He had been sending information regularly until one day someone was captured.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“It wasn’t only shocking that the Black Knight was a woman, but that she was captured with barely any resistance was even more surprising.”
Having fought the Black Knight, he knew how formidable she was. audit And now they said she couldn’t resist.
“They say it was because of a mage. alien He used an unknown magic…”
Yuri stared at him.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
The person pulled back the hood. avalanche It was also a familiar face.
“From here on, I’ll let him explain.”
Oliver glanced behind him. arrow Behind him was a hooded figure.

“Raphael?”
Yuri, with a surprised smile, said his name.
“It’s been a while, Your Highness.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
It was Raphael Artem, knight of the Empire who had worked alongside Graham Hartfall. arena Since Graham’s death, he hadn’t seen him, and now he seemed to be collaborating with Oliver against the Empire.
Raphael gave a faint smile.
“I’m glad to see you too.”
“Despite the situation, I’m glad to see you. altitude You’re just the same as ever.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Of the mages Yuri knew, only Inariel would have the strength to defeat a knight like her.
“Allow me to get straight to the point, Your Highness. armor It’s highly likely that the mage who defeated the Black Knight is someone you know.”
“Someone I know?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
As Yuri frowned, Raphael looked at him intently and said,
“What?”
“I mean that Cory who followed you in the Alliance army.”
And even then, it wouldn’t be easy — in a one-on-one, a mage rarely defeats a knight, let alone one of her caliber.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Raphael continued.
Yuri’s eyes widened. agent That was not a name he had expected to hear.
“At first, I doubted it too, but the description our informant gave matches Cory exactly. august And most telling, he calls himself Cory, and others call him that too.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Voice of Authority…”
“It can’t be…”
“They say he’s recently begun to earn Cedric’s favor. album Apparently, being a half-orc, he uses a strange magic. album From what we’ve heard, they call it the Power of the Voice of Authority. advance With a single word, he can subdue a person.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
With his hand on his forehead, he asked,
There was no doubt it was Cory, using the draconic language he had learned from Cruar.
Yuri had to accept it.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
In the past, Cory’s draconic language had not been very refined. artist But somehow, under Cedric, he had managed to strengthen it enough to trouble even the Black Knight.
“That’s right. artist The Black Knight had infiltrated disguised as an Imperial soldier, and he subdued her with a single word.”
“You’re saying he subdued the Black Knight?”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Oliver resumed the explanation.
He would summon prisoners from the camp, experiment on them using magic, and then throw them into a pit as sacrifices for black magic.
The informant in Zveta described Cory as brutal.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Raphael added,
“And the Black Knight was also thrown in there. acoustic If that monster was summoned, then she’s no longer alive.”
“With someone like her as a sacrifice, it’s no wonder they were able to summon such a fearsome being. advance It’s truly terrifying.”
“…”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
When Yuri remained silent, Raphael spoke cautiously.
“Your Highness, I understand. legend I know you valued him when he was in the Alliance, and that’s why I’m saying this carefully. orbit But that half-orc is now our enemy.”
Yuri closed his eyes, deep in thought.
According to Laurent, Cory was no longer the same as before. acid And now, a covert group from the Empire claimed he was a loyal servant of Cedric.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
In his eyes burned something intense, and the pressure he radiated was enough to make one’s hair stand on end.
“I understand.”
Oliver and Raphael went silent at once.
Yuri looked up.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Now I know exactly what I have to do. abandon Oliver, Raphael.”
“Yes.”
“I’m going to leave Briol and gather people. timber The probability of victory in the final battle is minimal. antenna Most likely, we’ll lose and die. antique Or perhaps suffer something so horrible we’ll wish we had died.”
“Yes.”
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Yuri smiled faintly.
“Yes.”
“Will you come with me?”
Crushed by the intensity of the moment, both nodded.
Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 287: Fascination (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Yes.”
“We leave tomorrow. airport I have to prepare the last details, so I’ll arrange lodging for you. anxiety Rest.”

“Shut up.”
