Oscar Tu Estline’s Point of View
“Seriously! What the hell happened? —What in the world is going on?!”
The three-day celebration is over, and I’m enraged in my room.
I thought “they” were going to ruin the celebration, humiliate the “Cold-Blooded Prince,” ensure he would never be chosen as crown prince, and drive him insane!
But now it turns out that the king has appointed the “Cold-Blooded Prince” as his successor, and before I know it, the terrorist plots at the celebration that I entrusted Otto with have all been foiled!
“What’s more, why was the Cold-Blooded Prince poisoned? —I didn’t give those orders!”
When I question Otto, who is currently in jail, he insists that he did not poison him, so who else could have done such a thing?!
Now the King has discovered the entire terror plot, and that pig Collengel is whining about Otto’s imprisonment….”
“Why… why is everything going so wrong?!”
I burst into frustrated tears.
If everything goes as planned, the “Cold-Blooded Prince” will have vanished long ago… Even Marguerite would look at him coldly, and he would be without allies.
And the nobility and the people should all be looking up at me with admiration and anticipation.
Until two years ago, that was the norm…
But…
“…If the poison kills him, I will be the sole heir. Then everyone will only look at me this time…!”
And when I am officially a crown prince and king, I will double the humiliation I have suffered today!
“Now, hehehe. “What are we going to do with Marguerite?”
I can either beat her until her face is twisted in pain, or I can let a gang of men torture her until she breaks.
“That’s right. I’m going to paint that pretty face with despair!”
My face in the broken mirror has a devilish expression.
Yes, I turned into a demon because Marguerite refused to accept me. That’s exactly what happened.
A demon who annihilates everything.
Then..
“Oscar.”
“M-Mother!”
My mother and my sister Josephine entered the room.
“What’s the deal with you suddenly entering my room, Mother? —Josephine, too…”
“Sigh… What is this room?”
“T-This is…”
My mother sighs while pressing her temples, I stop talking without realizing it.
“Really, useless…”
“…With all due respect, mother, this whole thing could have worked out if you had been a little more cooperative…”
Offended by my mother’s words, I responded with sarcasm.
To begin with, you are the one who is “useless” to your own son. What’s the big deal? You used to love me so much…!
“That’s enough. I was a fool to expect anything from you. Anyway, you should at the very least… clean up… before you go.”
“What…?”
My mind went blank, unable to comprehend the significance of my mother’s words.
What in the world was she talking about…?
“Don’t you get it? You’ll have to leave this palace soon. I think you will be imprisoned in a tower in the city of “Mottoesauzan.”
“Eh?! W-Why?! Why should I be imprisoned in a tower in “Mottoesauzan”?!”
In a rage, I complained to my mother.
That is where guilty royals and high-ranking nobles are sent! This entire situation is supposed to be Otto’s fault!
“What do you mean? —Everyone thinks Oscar did it. Anyway, if you continue to stay in the palace, we’ll all be affected.”
She then focused her attention on Josefina.
Hahaha… So they betrayed me to save their own skin…
I’m your own son.
“Well, be grateful you still have a life. Sigh… I’m going to have to keep an even closer eye on that damned Teresa from now on. It’s extremely depressing…”
Mother clutched her forehead with her hand while leaving the room with Josefina
“Ah… Ha,ha,ha…”
I see… I no longer have anyone on my side…
“Hahahaha…”
I’m completely alone…
“Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!”
in a cluttered, empty room.
All broken…a doll that just laughed.
