NovelEnglishPrincess Mia is unwavering… or maybe not?
“So what do you think Prince Sion?”
Lambert said while opening a map.
The royal capital is located in the north of the Kingdom of Remno. At the bottom left is Senia, the town where Mia and his friends are currently located. Beside Senia, a large road running through the central part of the kingdom extended to the territory of Count Donovan in the south.
“So this is the supply route you want to cut off? If this is cut off, can’t they just use another route?”
“It’s not impossible, but it won’t be easy. Either way, it will take some time to prepare.”
What the Kingdom of Remno is proud of compared to other countries is not a strong army. What the country is truly proud of was the wide network of roads that were maintained throughout the whole kingdom.
Even infantry that has low mobility can be loaded into wagons and transported at a faster speed. The highways also ensured that supplies get transported smoothly and efficiently. This makes their response unit to be deployed rapidly and with precision. This gives Remno a perfect defence system. If they just expand it more, and focus outwards instead of inwards, then they can use this highway system for invasion…

“But there’s something more important than tactics. Prince Sion, the royal government of this country has sent an overpowering force, the Diamond Legion, to crack down on the people. Doesn’t that alone make them unqualified to lead the people? Fortunately, the fighting hasn’t started yet… but once it begins…”
Involuntarily, Sion swallowed his words. The criticisms were real and it is true that a one-sided slaughter is about to take place. He cannot silently overlook all of this to happen.
Clink…
A clink reaches Sion’s ears that broke his train of thoughts. It was the sound of ceramic cup hitting the plate. When he turned to where the sound came from, he saw Mia sipping tea with a calm face.
Mia had just set her teacup down to its plate. She leaned her head back and had her eyes closed out of pure pleasure. She let out a satisfied sigh, presumable from the tea she had just sipped. The smile formed gentle dimples on her cheeks, which accentuated the glow of faint blush. There was an air of nonchalance to her that was conspicuous. Her actions seemed deliberate.
Mia’s actions immediately hit Sion. It was like a cold shower for his hot mind.
Instigator, Lambert. The man in front of him has an indescribable charm and a genius at oration. He employs his skills like a conman. Mixing truth, flattery, and appealing to virtues, he worms his way into his listeners’ hearts. He instigates them to do his bidding without even them realizing.
This instigator continues…
“I want to change this country. A country where such injustice doesn’t have to exist anymore…”
“By the way, aren’t we the hindrance to the revolution?”
Sion interrupts him. He figured out that it wasn’t wise to keep this scammer to keep on speaking, so he changed the topic.
“I heard that your fellow man, Jem, was saying such a thing.”
“Oh, that’s right …”
Lambert smiled and turned to Mia.
“I was thinking of doing something about it. Mia Luna Tearmoon.”
“Huh …?”
Lambert turns to Mia. Mia, however, gave him a blank confused look.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I don’t want you to do anything that interferes with our noble revolution.”
Lambert remembered Jem’s words during their last conversation. The Prince of Sunkland and the Princess of Tearmoon are going to infiltrate this country. Prince Sion is a potential threat but he can be converted into an ally. But Princess Mia is a definite threat. There is no other way but to have her eliminated. She should be eliminated in a way that won’t seem suspicious to Sion.
During this period, if something happens to Princess Mia, it will not be possible to obtain the cooperation of Sion. If so, the next best thing should be taken.
Fortunately, the other party is a girl. He has heard the rumors about her, but at the end of the day, she is just a child.
With these thoughts, Lambert smiled at her.
“Well, I assume you might be tired because of everything that happened today. If you like, you can stay here tonight. It’s not like your royal palaces, but at least there will be a big bath and bed.”
“My! A bath!”
Noticing Mia’s reaction, Lambert smiled inside knowing that he had this in a bag.
Lambert thought that it’s only a matter of time before he got her in the palm of his hands. Already feeling his victory, he began planning what he should do afterward.
Lambert’s behavior is exactly what is called, counting one’s chickens before they are hatched.
