Chapter 732 – #96. Jinhaesol (36)
“Older brother…!”
“Yes, aww.”
Oddman brings a soldier into the palace, and the king takes advantage of the gap to trap him.
The rebellion has already begun, and going back is impossible.
Lord Oddman noticed that he and his privates were surrounded by his knights, but he had no choice but to press his way forward.
It was a better option for the future to go forward and kill the king and claim the throne than to go back to lift the siege.
He was reunited with the king, who came out after hearing that his brother had committed treason.
“You’ve come all the way here. When did a timid child grow up like this… Haha.”
“Hasn’t hyung-nim become weak? You’ve never shown a single sloth until now, and then you suddenly give up everything. Didn’t you throw away the position I’ve been wanting to have all my life like trash?!”
The king was looking down at Oddman, who vomited his inferiority feelings that he had kept inside for a lifetime.
He was unaware of his younger brother’s feelings of inferiority.
“Is there any reason why Jim should listen to your lowly inferiority?”
“You’ve always been like that. Great, perfect, noble! I could have been too. If it wasn’t for you!”
“If it wasn’t for me, you would have inherited the throne? Haha! Truly, my younger brother is still immature and young.”
“Brother, are you ignoring me even now? You may lose your life in my hands.”
“You have survived through my mercy until now, but you don’t know anything. You don’t understand.”
“What the hell do you mean I don’t understand!”
Oddman, who was angry at the king’s laugh-filled words, shouted out loud.
The king giggled and told the truth for his frustrated brother.
“The reason you didn’t die at my hands is because you’re so incompetent.”
“!!”
The reason why the king was able to save his brother.
It was because he had the confidence that he could take responsibility for whatever he did.
“Even without Jim, you wouldn’t have become king. Rather, you would have died at the hands of someone else earlier.”
The brothers who died at his hands were not as timid as Oddman and that child.
“Do you think Jim got blood on his hands for no reason?
“Then what saved me…”
“I did this because I know what a timid child you are. Look now. Didn’t your hair turn white?”
Look at the cowardly Oddman.
I feared him all my life, and I have never used him after nurturing an enlisted soldier.
It took a while for my hair to turn white.
Oddman, who felt that there was no lie in what the king said, could not hide his soaring anger and inferiority complex.
Oddman shouted with a red face.
“I will surely kill my brother with my own hands.”
“It’s a burden that has already been buried countless times with the blood of a brother. Even if one more blood is added, it won’t change much.”
Oddman, who seemed to have lost his temper, was thinking only of his anger at the king who had mocked him for the rest of his life rather than the throne.
“I will stain my hands with your blood and escape from this disgusting feeling that has tormented me all my life. I must see my brother’s distorted face with my own two eyes!
Lord Oddman raised the sword himself.
The battleground has changed from a fight over the throne to a battle to resolve old feelings between brothers.
However, even on that battlefield, blood had to flow.
As always on the battlefield, there was only one victor.
♧ ♧ ♧
Since it was his younger brother’s fault, the king expressed his will that his older brother himself would deal with it to the end.
He kept his word.
The king, who made himself the target by stimulating his inferiority complex, started a bloody war with his younger brother.
I took a step back and took the position of watching the two fight.
Because the king had told me not to get involved in this.
‘That old man, he doesn’t seem to have any intention of living after today.’
It seemed that he would take his brother and go to hell with him.
The king’s skillful behavior, which deliberately made him excited by stimulating Oddman’s sense of inferiority, was something worthy of emulation, but it didn’t look very good to see him aiming his blood and sword like that.
‘My children shouldn’t be like that.’
Just imagining that my children would antagonize and quarrel with each other because of their greed made me sick and sick.
Raising children is something I can do on my own?
No matter how good things are shown and taught, if at some point it becomes crooked, there is no answer for children’s education.
I don’t know how lucky I am to have so many people around me helping me.
‘I’m fine now, but if I have more children later… One of them will be a crooked child, right?’
How many children will I have in the future?
Outside of the world I am in now, I had no intention of making my women have only one child.
This is not my own greed.
Rather, my women were more greedy than me.
In particular, Joo-ah said that she wanted to have a second child, and she had been asking me to sleep.
‘I can’t get pregnant because I’m an alter ego…’
I couldn’t go there with my body right away, so I calmed down by saying don’t rush and wait until it appears naturally, but if it doesn’t happen for a long time, doubts will arise.
Until then, it was necessary to stabilize the situation here as much as possible.
‘At least I have to inherit the throne and become stable so that I can move while exchanging with my body and alter ego.’
And thanks to such a diligent move, it became a situation where the last steps were left until ascending to the throne.
Looking at the tragic war between the two brothers, I sighed.
‘It’s definitely a world that doesn’t suit me.’
At least, I thought that if a smart heir was born, I would have to raise it well.
From what I’ve heard, it seems that many members of the royal family died in a power struggle for the throne.
No matter how much I said that I would not give affection to this world, it was hard to turn away from my children.
‘At least I’ll never see it as long as I’m alive.’
No matter how many days left to live, even for an old king, it seems that the mountain was too big for Oddman to win.
Moreover, the king is also a person who has long known that Oddman is raising private soldiers.
And finally, they stopped arguing with each other and started fighting in earnest.
The first to strike was the Duke of Oddman, who was obviously very angry.
“Hey…”
“Prince, it’s dangerous. Go inside.”
“Is it dangerous to watch from here?”
“We must not reveal the location of the prince. The easiest victory for them will be to capture the prince.”
When the battle was about to begin, the knight hurriedly took care of me.
I would be lying if I said I wasn’t curious because I had never seen war up close.
But it’s not like watching a movie, it’s a real war where people die.
‘It’s dangerous to upload UTV, but you can’t be a guy who doesn’t run away and watch. And he doesn’t seem to be able to watch people die casually.’
I didn’t know if I would be able to handle the shock of seeing people die.
In the end, he entered the palace, a safe place, and waited under the protection of strict knights.
From outside, the sound of weapons colliding and occasionally popping could be heard.
‘It’s not like there’s a grenade here, so what’s exploding?’
Deafening
And I could see that the human scream was much louder than I had imagined.
The desperate screams of people who are about to die.
It was different from what you see in the movies.
‘Ha… It’s scary.’
It was fortunate that I had listened to the article and went inside beforehand.
If I had endured just because I was curious, wouldn’t I have shown my unsightly appearance to the knights?
‘Are these people fine looking at things like that…?’
I took a deep breath, thinking that I should hold onto my mental well.
When I felt like I was getting better to some extent, I told the driver.
“I wonder what’s going on outside.”
“I’ll check and come back.”
Obediently following my words, the knight carefully headed outside.
And after a while
Fortunately, the article reappeared unscathed and informed us of the situation outside.
“It looks like the King has used his hand beforehand. Now the King is driving the Duke of Oddman, no, the traitors.”
“Tell me more.”
“A traitor has come from Private Oddman.”
“Betrayer?”
It seems that the king had already expected this from the time his younger brother was training private soldiers.
‘He’s such a great person. If it were me, I would have tried to eliminate the cause right away.’
Instead of dealing with Oddman, the king seemed to have secretly put in a spy while he was holding his breath.
In the midst of such a frantic fight, if a traitor appears from the side of the allies, the confusion will increase many times over.
A friend’s change of heart is more painful than an enemy’s.
The voice of Oddman’s anger came clearly from outside.
“Dare… Dare!!!!”
The King, who saw the scene, could be heard laughing as if he was in a good mood.
Haha! Oddman, you bastard.
It was on my side, but it was such a nasty laugh that I could understand how Lord Oddman was about to die from the drug.
