The Strongest Dull Prince’s Secret Battle for the Throne

Chapter 441: DONE

Chapter 441: DONE

This is getting real annoying.

I thought as I looked at the nobles who rushed into my room one after another.

Your Highness, please come to my house!

No, Your Highness. My house is definitely better.

My house does not lose either!

Perhaps some misunderstandings spread among the aristocrats.

The nobles who heard that I went to Earl Baelzs matchmaking all rushed over to meet me.

Did they think that I went there just because I was free?

If thats the case then these guys are surprisingly shallow.

All of you, just go back.

Your Highness, please dont say that. Did you not attend Earl Baelzs matchmaking? Please visit my house. I do not boast about her much but my daughter is quite good-looking.

Your Highness! If you are going to do that then please visit my house as well!

Your Highness, please dont be fooled. My daughter is definitely better!

I wonder why.

I cant communicate with them at all.

Normally, someone with common sense wouldnt just barge into a princes room and brag about their daughter right.

Is it the negative side of how I let them make light of me for so long?

Somewhere in their heart, they must still think lightly of me thats why they act like this.

And everyone that came to me was those that I only knew their faces.

I guess I can say that they are all middle-class nobles.

Earl Baelzs house is not that prestigious but he is still a minister. Moreover, he is the first minister to show his support for Leo.

Theres no way I can treat these guys with the same treatment I gave the Earl.

I have no intention of getting married. Just go back.

That is no good, Your Highness. Something like this should be settled sooner than later.

Thats correct. A person who is becoming the Prime Minister of the Dominion must not remain single. Your Highness does not want to be a laughing stock of their aristocrats, correct?

Since Your Highness does not want to join the high-ranking houses, I think that my daughter is just right for you.

Did the rumor that I dont want to marry into a high-ranking house spread because I turned down both the Duke and the Brave?

Dont treat me like a fool.

I didnt refuse them because of their family.

Argh, enough of this.

Quit it already! My patience has its limit! What kind of benefit would I get from visiting your houses? Do you think that you can invite the Dull Prince to your house even if you havent raised any achievements? Stop making a fool out of me. Earl Baelz is the first person to express his support for Leo. Hes different from you guys! Theres no way I would visit the house of someone who hasnt even provided anything to the faction. If you want to invite me then make yourself useful first!

I managed to shut them up.

Using that momentum, I tried to make them leave.

However, before that, the door was knocked again.

Dont tell me

WHO IS IT THIS TIME!?

Ummif this is a bad time then I can come back later(Desuwa).

Replied the nervous-looking girl with braided flaxen hair.

She also wears some unfashionable glasses.

However, what stood out the most was this weird speaking habit of hers.

Involuntarily, I stood up.

Mia!?

Ummdo you have time(Desuwa)?

Yeah, Im free right now. I will prepare a room for us to talk.

Since I know that they wont leave even if I tell them to get out, I walked to the door.

Then, their voices came at me from behind.

Your Highness! If you are going to spend your time with that girl then please give us some of your time too!

For me, there is a difference in value between you guys and her. If you are still here when I come back I will call the Imperial Knights to throw you out. Just get lost already.

I said that and left the room.

Are your wounds all healed up?

I am having a chat with Mia in one of the rooms in the castle.

Sebas also prepared some tea for us.

This is a much more meaningful way to spend time than talking to those guys.

I am already okay(Desuwa). I am not back to normal yet but theres no problem with my trip here.

You and your family were supposed to be taking refuge in the north though.did something happen?

Theres no problem about that(Desuwa). Its not about our new life here but..ah! Before that, I have something to say(Desuwa).

With that said, Mia straightened her posture and quietly lowered her head.

Thank you, Your Highness.

I havent done anything though?

In return for my work in the Imperial Capital, you have protected the people of the Dominion. You have also persuaded Marshal Lizelotte for us. The work I have done is incomparable to what youve done for us(Desuwa).

Dont be so humble. Back then the Empire was in a crisis. You have worked hard for us. I simply fulfilled the promise I made to you. Rather, I should be apologizing to you instead. We made you suffer because our preparations were not thorough enough. Im sorry.

It was our side who changed the plan at the last moment(Desuwa). The people of the Empire have worked hard enough for us.

Being told that makes me feel a little better.

Mia could have died back then.

If she did then I would be left with nothing but regret.

Then shall we say that we are even then? You came because you want something from me right? Anything is fine, just say it.

A, anythingyou might regret it later if I ask for something big you know?

Its fine. Tell me, whatever you need.

T, Then..do you remember my younger brother Ted? He was the one who went to you as our messenger(Desuwa).

Of course. He did well running all the way to us back then.

Umm, actually, Ted isHe wanted to study under Duke Reinfeld.

That can be arranged.

Its impossible after all!? I knew that it is impudent to ask to study from the Duke butHmm?

I can arrange it.

Since Mia got all worked up and waved her hands all over the place, I said it again.

After confirming that she didnt hear me wrong, Mias eyes opened wide.

Is that true!?

I already said it twice right. I will write a letter to Duke Reinfeld. That person is the best person someone could learn from. He will surely grow up to be a talented person. After that, it will be up to him but.as I thought, the Dominion should be in the care of someone from the Dominion. If he can become someone that can be useful to my brother who is going to become the King there then this is a good deal.

I, I dont know what will happen in the future(Desuwa)but Ted also said that he wanted to do something about the Dominion! He wants to change it himself!

Then theres no problem right. Is there anything else?

UmmI need souvenirs for the children

Done.

Also.the carriage I rode here was bumpy.

Done.

ActuallyI need a new bow.

Done.

Umm..Im hungry.

Sebas.

At once, sir.

Ahhhhh.I really can ask for anything(Desuwa)!?

In shock, Mia jumped away from me.

Seeing her like that, I ask her with a smile.

Anything else?

S, so scary(Desuwa)!? Is this some kind of trick!?

Even like this I am still an Imperial Prince. It wouldnt do if I cant do this much. You wont accept my money after all. I have no choice but to reward you like this right?

I think that I will have better peace of mind if I take your money(Desuwa).?

So money is fine huh?

Saying so, I take out my coin purse.

There are a lot of gold coins inside and it makes a thud sound when I placed it on the table.

Even with no rainbow coin included, this should be a sizable amount of money.

Seeing that, Mia retreated further away from me.

Thats it! Thats it(Desuwa)! I dont like how you treat that amount of money like its nothing! A normal persons purse wouldnt make that heavy sound when you take it out, you know!?

Its the weight of my feeling.

Thats too heavy(Desuwa)!

Its okay if you dont want to accept this. But when the children grow up, they will need a lot of things, right? They have to get used to their new life too after all.

Uu.if you say that..

Persuaded, Mia nervously reached out for the purse and pulled it toward her chest.

At that moment, a grin floated on my face.

So you accepted it?

HA!? I KNEW IT! IT WAS SOME KIND OF TRICK!?

I will have to act as the Prime Minister of the Dominion for a while. I will have you work a lot this time as well. I am short on hand at the moment you see.

I GOT LURED IN BY MONEY AGAIN(Desuwa)!?

While Mia was cursing her own carelessness, Sebas arrived with a tray of sweets.
