Chapter 537 Lady
Cecily was bound with a mana restraint on the spot and imprisoned as if sealed in the lowest floor of the royal castle dungeon.
And the ladies who were used for her tricks were imprisoned in the outer tower of the palace for further investigation.
The nobles led by their parents, the Duke of Yurbara, found out that their daughter was actually innocent, but they did not save them as if they had completely become strangers.
that much.
It was because the aftermath brought by the moonlight honey was huge.
“At this point, I think it’s okay if you tell me.”
At my words, King Crianes sighed and covered his face with one hand and rubbed it.
Then he said to Barris.
“Tell me Varys. Davy and Saeaga are targeted because of this, so it makes no sense not to know about him.”
At his words, Varys glanced at me and Perserk, who was sitting nicely next to me.
However, Varys, who met Perserk’s gaze, flinched and averted his gaze.
I don’t think it’s anything to be ashamed of.
As Perserk smiled, cold sweat broke out on Varys’ face.
Varys took off his glasses and put down the papers he was holding in his hand.
“Moonlight honey is a drug.”
“I heard that. That’s what caused this uproar. But what I’m curious about is that handling doesn’t seem like a simple drug.”
Prohibited drugs are literally prohibited items, and the outflow, inflow, and sale of them are strictly punished.
But no other drug I know has ever been so harshly judged.
“It has no choice but to be. Because the manufacturing method is so terrible that even a rogue organization known for viciousness sticks out its tongue. Even if they know, it is safe to say that there is virtually no one who mentions it or makes it.”
Varys huffed with a rare angry expression.
“The raw material for moon honey is not all narcotic plants.”
“Not all?”
“Children. And that’s the raw material for girls between the ages of 5 and 11.”
It was a man-made drug.
Reflexively, my fists tighten up.
“It’s rare to mention this drug because the empire turned a country that manufactured and secretly sold this drug overnight into a sea of fire in the past. Recently, new nobles except for old nobles don’t know about it.”
“It wasn’t just about fighting with a few nobles to feed me. I was thinking of crushing the entire Kingdom of Raun.”
Of course, as long as I exist, military suppression will be impossible, but if that happens, I will lose my justification.
It was like releasing some of the power that shook the world. There is no gain either way.
“Children...”
“It’s a cruel drug. A girl between the ages of 5 and 11 is kidnapped, locked in a dark cave, given minimal food and water, and repeatedly beaten and abused for six months. And When they fall asleep or pass out from exhaustion, it gives them extreme nightmares.”
All that remains of the children who are slowly going insane are the horrors and traces of terrible abuse.
“And the children who were pushed to the edge like that are lowering the rescue line right before they die.”
These are children who can hardly eat or drink, have constant nightmares, are beaten, and are abused.
As Varys gritted her teeth and fell silent, King Crianes sighed and replied.
“It is to lure such children by leaving delicious food and warm clothes in the test tube, which is the source of the drug
. are you doing?”
“Heat it over low heat. Slowly, slowly, slowly, until it dies.”
The children who survived the terrible pain are slowly burned to death in the hot test tube.
I frown at the thought of the brass bull as a terrible instrument of execution.
Perserk also clenched his fists invisibly.
“Kill it...”
“Hmm?”
I thought I just muttered something.
As I listened to Barris’ explanation, I suddenly thought that the manufacturing method of this drug was similar to something I knew.
“It’s similar to Yeommae.”
“Yeommae?”
I nodded my head at Varys’ question. It’s a bit of a nasty curse. It is similar to using a child. Don’t you think the manufacturing process was just vicious?”
“That’s right. Evening view honey is like that, but after taking it, the effect is gradually revealed. More than any other drug, it makes you see sweet fantasies and makes you feel good. It is, in fact, one of the best drugs. The problem is that it doesn’t stop there.”
Those who took the honey of the moonlight gradually become mineralized.
And gradually their strength increases.
“Amplified mana and strengthened physical abilities. There are various doping abilities, but in the past, they drive people crazy. That’s why they make them demons.”
Demons....
If the aftermath is strong, it would be funny to just banish them
. Even if you protest against the Kingdom of Boltez, they will pretend they don’t know.” ”
Generally, it is.”
Varys’s eyes widened at my words.
“Brother, please...”
“Your Majesty. I think I’ll have to negotiate with the Baltiz Kingdom for this.”
“Davy.”
“Your Majesty.”
“This may not be so light. No evidence. If they take it off, it will inevitably look like pure compulsion.
“It’s okay, Your Majesty.”
I said it calmly and smiled.
“Because Seongguk also gave it all after enduring like that.”
They were two people who looked at me with absurd faces at my words.
“I am a prince who has renounced the right of succession. So I beg you. Your Majesty. Give me the right to negotiate.”
“...it could turn into a big problem if you don’t.”
It’s a terrible drug.
“It’s not a poison or a curse, what’s the guy who made this?”
It’s like a vicious guy.
“Isn’t there a way for you too?”
As I stuck out my tongue, having already cured several diseases such as Black and White Plague and Accelerated Melt Virus, Varys asked bitterly.
“I don’t think there’s any way right now. The only way to find out is to draw a little blood. Still, it’s fortunate that the dose is small, so it doesn’t become mineralized right away.”
While I was thinking about it, she looked up at the ceiling with a blank face and opened her mouth.
“Stop... leave it.”
A voice of resignation escaped from her mouth.
“Quit?”
“Let it die. Let it die.”
I was silent at her words.
“I don’t know that this lady is worth my life.”
“What do I have left?”
“what?”
“I was abandoned by my family and became a sinner in my country. Didn’t the prince abandon me too?”
“...”
“What do I have left? I’d rather live like this... I’d rather die...”
She muttered with a blank face and eventually started to sob. I pricked her arm lightly with a small needle to draw blood and said, “Why is there nothing left
? ”
“...”
I said plainly to her as she looked at me with a tear-dropped face.
“You have a life left.”
She didn’t say anything to my words. However, the emotion in her eyes was questionable.
” older brother. It’s not that the young lady’s words were wrong. Because I lost my place to go.”
“Then, how about getting a job at the capital?”
“Yes?”
“Isn’t there a shortage of workers?”
At my words, Varys didn’t say anything for a long time.
“Brother, that’s as easy as it sounds... ”
“If you get caught lying to this hyung...”
“Yes, your palms will be blown off.”
“Do you have a seat?”
A few months after waking up from a
coma .
There must be opposition from them.”
“Solve that.”
I gave her homework in her own way, and Baris sighed and nodded. “
Please
treat me, then
. ” In the Empire of Contas ,
while the Emperor is preparing what I asked for, there is nothing to do right now. Lastwisp will be investigating the Illuminati in its own way. Then, all that is left
is
... The prince was there too.”
I saw an overweight, sweaty aristocrat hurriedly running
. What’s going on?”
“That’s... the reply came from the kingdom of Baltiz...”
He quietly took the paper and read it. At the same time, his
face was filled with rage.
.”
“That low! Purify the words a little more...”
At the words of the one mouse diplomat who was embarrassed, Varis handed me the letter.
“Brother. These bastards are so full-bodied, are they mods?”
The content written on the document was simple.
It was that there was no such thing as a demon slaughterhouse in the Baltiz Kingdom, and that he was enraged at the behavior of questioning the morality of the Raun Kingdom, which was falsely framed like this.
This It was a warning that he would protest to the United Nations with the matter. This time , it was a warning that he would present
traces of the distribution of drugs banned by the Union in the Kingdom of Raun
. 30 Give me a cart. This is it. These bastards know they have an advantage because there’s no evidence by any means. Besides, there is no evidence that the Moonlight Honey came from the Kingdom of Baltiz, and it circulated within the Kingdom of Raun...” If I
inform the United Nations, this is the flow of the Kingdom of Raun using poison.
“That’s good.”
A smile caught my lips.
“This is Keep it safe and follow me.”
“Tongue brother? Where are you going?” ”
I’m going to negotiate as a diplomat.”
After saying that, I put one hand over my ear.
.”
They should know.
At the point of local provocation, it is like insisting on going to war
