How To Survive as a Crazy Prince

Emperor Lev, a tyrant to be called in the story.

The trained body of a 2-meter-tall body reminds us of a beast, and the sharp eyes and coolness felt from the tightly closed mouth show that he is not just a strong person.

The owner of the charisma that shook the surroundings just by standing there, that was Emperor Lev.

“father… … .”

And it was no different for Mikhail. No, it was worse.

The moment they met, the memories of the emperor and the fear engraved in their bodies revived, causing their hearts to throb and their legs to relax. My head is pounding.

Although it was faster than expected, the emperor’s appearance was expected. It’s an episode from the original story. However, there was one thing that was different from what was expected.

Apart from ‘I’, Mikhail’s mind and body had not yet completely overcome the ‘incident’. I, Mikhail, suffered from intense post-traumatic stress syndrome—PTSD, and I couldn’t even control my body properly.

In the original work, it is one year from now that Mikhail appears at the banquet hall and meets the emperor. There was no mention of anything else, but maybe during that year, Mikhail might have overcome PTSD and made up his mind. No, it would have been.

I was too hasty.

‘Damn it, wake up! Get up!’

But even so, I couldn’t collapse here. If I can’t be acknowledged by the emperor or by my father… … Mikhail may die.

“what… … I came because of work.”

I gritted my teeth and sat down. And he glared at the emperor’s face. I faced him head-on without avoiding it. The emperor narrowly opened his eyes and watched me, grabbing the hilt of the ax slung on his back.

“Lord, I have committed a mortal sin! Your Majesty the Emperor!”

At the same time, Katyusha stood in front of me and knelt down.

“I will gladly accept death. Punishment, punishment please… … !!”

Katyusha shouted with a trembling voice. The emperor looked down at Katyusha while clutching the ax handle, before finally removing his hand completely.

“Why should the victor have to die? You’re talking nonsense. valet. Get out of there.”

“… … Sir, excuse me.”

At the Emperor’s command, Katyusha moved out of my way. The emperor looked at me with a grave expression. Perhaps thanks to Katyusha intervening, I felt a little more at ease and was able to face the emperor.

“You’ve been doing something interesting lately.”

“Anything interesting?”

“Sit in my seat and fainted a noble who complained that I had been wrong in upbringing.”

It was the original flow of blaming what happened at the banquet hall.

“I don’t know what’s wrong.”

After taking a deep breath, I recited the original lines. The answer that came back was also

“I never allowed you to be my spokesman.”

It was like the original.

It wasn’t my rude attitude that made the emperor angry. He dared to express his will.

Taking the nobleman’s words as treason as my doctor.

“Whether it is treason or not, I decide. It’s not up to you to decide.”

A man who is offended by it, who is most offended by a challenge to his power. That was Emperor Lev.

“Am I your son?”

I answered with lines from the original story.

“Isn’t it strange that the son stays still after hearing his father’s curse?”

“under.”

As if it wasn’t even funny, the emperor let out an empty laugh. And with a thump, he took a step closer to me. I felt a strong sense of intimidation even with that mere act.

“I can still vividly remember the last time I met him, saying, ‘A guy like you isn’t even my father.’

Looking down at me, the emperor muttered expressionlessly.

“What are you up to?”

And for an instant, he twisted his face and grabbed my collar. There was an obvious murderous intent in the eyes staring at me coldly.

“I am… … .”

It wouldn’t take more than 10 seconds for the emperor to slash me to the floor and chop me to death with an axe. But if you fear it, you will surely die.

“I want to inherit power.”

To survive, you must receive the emperor’s approval.

“I want to become a greater emperor than you.”

as a useful being.

“Keuk… … .”

or,

“Ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha… … ! ha!”

as an interesting being.

The emperor removed his hand from me, put his head on his head, and laughed madly. I tidied up my disheveled clothes and stared at the emperor. The emperor no longer felt the intent to kill.

“Do you like it. Better than your mother.”

The Emperor placed his hand on my head with a smile on his face. And stroked him as if he were a normal father.

“I’m glad your father didn’t have to do as he did to your mother.”

And he laughed and whispered. I felt my heart thump and sink.

“Let me look forward to your future. I don’t want to see you, so I’m going to have a hard time. Let the confinement be released.”

The Emperor, his father, killed his wife——Mikhail’s mother in front of Mikhail. He was accused of participating in a conspiracy to assassinate himself.

Little Mikhail ignored his mother’s disapproval, saying that he couldn’t do that, and hit his wife with an ax himself.

To the public, the story of an emperor who could even sever his own wife for the sake of a greater cause was a trauma that could not be erased to Mikhail.

The emperor dared to remind of that ‘incident’.

“You really are the worst father… … .”

Watching the back of the emperor as he left the palace, I murmured involuntarily. And then he sat down as if he were collapsing on the floor. Both body and mind were at their limits.

“Sorry Sorry… … ! Because I was not vigilant, the meeting with His Majesty… … sorry!”

And since he apologized to Katyusa, who was desperately apologizing, he asked for help.

The dragonfly seems to be wild today.

A carriage that was parked outside the palace.

“How was it?”

When the emperor boarded, Chancellor Valentin, a dapper elderly man wearing monocles, sat next to him as if he had been waiting for him. The arrogant attitude of talking to the emperor without taking his eyes off the paperwork was the prerogative of the chancellor, the second most powerful person in the empire.

“I never had to dirty my axe.”

The emperor replied, putting the ax in his back on the floor of the carriage. The weight thumped the carriage, and soon the coachman started the horse.

“Are you thinking of getting dirty? I did something about my wife’s case, but when it comes to my son, it’s hard to wrap it up even if it’s me. Please take care of yourself.”

“Chit. I didn’t kill you, so it’s okay.”

Putting aside the papers, the chancellor frowned and said, The emperor frowned and leaned back in the seat.

“He was a crappy guy, but he got a little funny.”

Then he looked out the window and said. The chancellor stared at the emperor’s profile with interest.

“I wonder if it will become an entertainment for later years.”

“That’s really high praise. Please do not let my work increase.”

The chancellor shifted his gaze back to the papers as if he was not interested. Then, as if having an ominous premonition, she narrowly opened her eyes and looked at the emperor.

“Did you release the confinement?”

“okay.”

“… … I’ll have to meet you when it’s not too late. It’s annoying enough to die.”

The chancellor let out a deep sigh. It is unpredictable what will happen if the emperor’s son gets involved in the current power structure. The only thing that was certain was that it would be very annoying.

“Isn’t it nice that it’s not boring?”

The emperor looked out the window and said as if tossing it. The chancellor looked at the emperor intently.

“… … You look happy.”

“A gross sound.”

And the conversation between the two stopped.

The next day after the Emperor passed away.

“Did you sleep well last night?”

“no.”

I replied to Katyusha who greeted me in the morning. I hardly slept because I had so much to think about. On the other hand, Katyusha looked as normal as she did yesterday. Is it a professional spirit? I would like to inherit.

“Then you can get some more sleep. Working with fatigue is not efficient, so it is better to take a break.”

“I don’t want my biological clock to be distorted, so wake up. I’m going to take a break from combat training.”

“All right. And the telegram came.”

“A telegram?”

Unexpectedly, I asked back. Katyusha nodded.

“that… … what was your name Was it Ivan? Is that a telegram of apology from him?”

“Not him.”

“is it. But what did Ivan do these days?”

“According to what I heard recently, they locked themselves in their rooms trembling with fear, saying that they might have earned the emperor’s hatred. Well, it’s just a rumor anyway. Come to think of it, recently, someone who is good at writing is being wanted, so I don’t know if the apology telegram you mentioned will come sooner or later.”

“I see.”

“I guess so.”

I thought about it, but I’m not really interested in it.

The reason is simple. Because Ivan is an extra.

He is a pitiful extra who hasn’t appeared since being beaten by Mikhail. Well, I guess I could use it if I wanted to use it myself.

“Then who did the telegram come from?”

“that is… … .”

Katyusha was speechless. Then he approached me carefully and whispered in my ear.

“This is Alexei Corps Commander.”

“… … really?”

“It is true.”

Yesterday was the emperor, today is the corps commander. I fell asleep.

I wish I could give you some time to rest.

I read the telegram of Corps Commander Alexei.

“… … Mmm.”

and read it again

“It’s so wordy, I don’t know what you’re talking about. You can’t write dirty, Commander Alexei.”

It was already the 5th time, and I still couldn’t figure out what it was.

At first glance, the long sentences with splendid handwriting seemed classy, but in reality, it was impossible to understand the main point because of the repeated repetition of the text. ok, so what? What’s the main point? It was a sentence reminiscent of a coded text, saying that the letter had ended before I knew it while I was reading it.

“I’m sorry I can’t help you because I can’t read.”

“are you okay. It’s Alexei’s fault for not being able to write properly.”

Alexei was an exhilarating man who did not hide his lust for power. There was a setting that he was indifferent to culture and etiquette, but I didn’t know that he could write so badly.

‘I thought it was a cool character, but it’s a bit broken for some reason.’

The contents of the letter, roughly summed up, consisted of praises for iron blood and the emperor, and insults for Ivan. So what? It was an item I don’t know why it was sent.

To buy my favor… … To say so, there was no reason for a person worth a corps commander to buy favor with the emperor’s son who was imprisoned. On the contrary, there are only disadvantages that would be regarded as suspicious.

I don’t know Alexei’s true intentions. I looked through the letters by shining them in the sun and turning them over to see if there was any hidden content, but nothing of note emerged.

“… … ? what. this.”

After giving up and putting the letter on the desk, I found something belatedly while looking at it blankly.

“Have you ever… … Was it a vertical trip?”

I never thought I’d see it here that I often see on the Internet. I chuckled.

“A vertical trip?”

“There is such a thing.”

Alexei, as a corps commander, he’s doing pretty cute things.
