Chapter 75 - What I Want

Ian’s eyes shone sharply.

In fact, it was all he wanted to take away from the beginning.

But Fiosen and Galon… 

He was a bit angry now. So he was going to swipe everything he owned all the way down to his spine.

‘Well, I’ll leave the bones behind.’

If he simply took everything, it was obvious who the other brothers would be after. He would only pluck out the kernel and leave what he didn’t need so other brothers could take it. 

With those thoughts in mind, Ian opened his mouth.

“The first thing I will ask for is your palace.”

The Second Prince was the owner of the Sapphire Palace.

The largest and most luxurious palace, it was also used as a banquet hall for the royal family on special occasions. It was a stark contrast to the Opal Palace, which was used to entertain envoys.

But to give it away?

The Second Prince glared at Ian as if it was ridiculous.

But that was fine.

“Alright, I’ll give it to you. I can get back as many such splendid palaces as I want later on…”

“You just have to leave everything in the palace, the people and things there, and go out.”

“What?”

The Second Prince’s face froze.

He had an inkling of what he meant.

That’s why he gritted his teeth.

“It’s not something that can be done with one of the three claims. At least all three of your wishes…”

As he was about to say this was out of question unless he put down his bet. 

Ian’s eyes flashed.

“Referee. My brother greatly disparages the extent of the three claims in the Battle of Ranking. Is this really unprecedented?”

“!”

The referee was not just someone who came to confirm the outcome of the match. He was a person sent by the royal elders in charge of the Battle of Ranking. Of course, he knew all about the history of the royal family.

The referee shook his head.

“There is a record in the past that when you take over a palace, everything in it is included.”

“…!”

The Second Prince’s face contorted.

The referee seemed a little astonished. This was information that one would not know well unless they checked the old records of the Battle of Ranking.

But Ian grinned.
