Chapter 88 - No, It’s Fine

Ian’s lips curled up into a smile.

In fact, unless he was a fool, he would spot the strangeness from Heinley’s expression right away.

‘Garcia’s second son came to the border area, much less at this time?’

And in such a stealthy outfit?

He even came unnoticed. There were only two attendants accompanying him. It was a stark contrast from the Heinley of his previous life, who boasted his identity as a direct descendant of the great Garcia family and had numerous servants following him.

He was practically telling the whole world that he was on a secret mission.

Then, there must be only one reason.

“Your Highness, you must have had a very wide circle of acquaintance, huh? Do you keep in touch with the ducal family of Kaistein?”

“!?”

The crown prince flinched. But he soon broke into a smirk. There was no evidence in the first place. That was why Ian couldn’t even question him aggressively.

“It seems that Kaistein’s prince likes slanders. I have never been in contact with the Duke…”

Ian smiled as if it were gibberish.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter if he denies it. I think I can roughly understand why he contacted him.’

It was no wonder.

It must be important enough that the direct descendant of the Duke had to come in person. That was the only thing that mattered. Ian, who had memories of his past life, could roughly guess.

Lavaltor next to him also noticed.

Moreover, he was sending Ian a murderous glare.

‘How about suppressing him first?’

But Ian shook his head.

He had an idea.

‘In my previous life, Garcia eventually joined hands with a foreign power.’

To be precise, he had moved the powers of other countries to eliminate the successors who stood in his way. It seemed that Ian was the target in this life.

Of course, he didn’t even expect Heinley to move at this time.

When Ian’s eyes flashed, Heinley began to step back, sweating bullets.

“Why in the world are you doing this? There really is nothing! If you do this, you will catch an innocent person!”

Nathan, who had been watching the situation, grabbed him in response. Galon also blocked his way. The atmosphere was so tense that if Ian were to drop an order, they would immediately catch him and take him down.

If they searched inside the bosom, something like a letter would surely come out.

The sight made the crown prince frown.
