Chapter 68 - You Thought It Through, Right?

Sell? What?

At the king’s gaze, Ian slowly put his hand into his pocket.

Then he took out something.

“That’s…”

A small necklace. 

It was none other than Ian’s mother’s relic. 

That’s what proved Ian to be of royal blood in the Garcia dukedom.

At the same time, King Eloin’s eyes shook for a moment when he saw it.

It was inevitable.

It wasn’t just any royal token or national treasure.

That was given by the king himself to Selena, Ian’s mother.

But the king soon glared at Ian with sharp eyes.

“Certainly, it is the only treasure left in the kingdom. If you want to sell it, you can turn it into an astronomical value.”

The king’s voice was menacing.

If it’s something worth selling to him, it must only be worth that much.

“Is that what you were selling?”

“No, it is not.”

Ian smiled as if asking why he would sell this.

Even just having Kaistein’s insignia was a big help.

In other words, what he was selling was not the necklace.

Click!

It was something in the necklace.

To be precise, the item after opening the Kaistein symbol engraved on the necklace. Inside was a piece of paper.

Along with a wonderful picture of a lion, a phrase that seemed to have been left by King Eloin was inscribed on it.

“My mother has missed you all her life.”

Ian bit his lip with a rather complicated look.

Originally, it was an item he was going to keep for the rest of his life, let alone sell it.

However.

‘I’m sure Mother will want this.’

In fact, a word from King Eloin shook him.

It was because he said that Ian could call him ‘Father.’ Of course, the decision was not made simply out of an impulse of emotion.

‘Now is the only time I can see His Majesty alone.’

King Eloin did not appear in public for a while after the competition for <Land> began.

Of course, he had a hunch that the king’s disappearance in the past might have something to do with the Kingdom of Magicians because of the wizards’ actions this time.
