The Crown War #2(3)

"If Lee Han used magic, then it's definitely possible."

Magic was an absolute power capable of achieving anything.

"But how did he do it?"

"I don't know the principle behind it. If I were one of his people, I might know, but at the moment, I have no way of finding out."

"......"

As the 3rd Prince's expression hardened, she opened her mouth again to help him.

"If the reason for the forgery is a lack of military funds, it would be best to find another way to get the money."

There was only one place that came to mind.

Goblin Bank.

It was the only place that could rival the financial power of the Lyon Guild.

'But using their funds would go against the traditions of the Crown War.'

"If we borrow money from the Goblin Bank, the Emperor will be furious. Even if we win, it would be meaningless."

The 3rd Prince, aware of this, had a hardened expression.

In the Crown War, borrowing money from any race other than humans was strictly forbidden.

This was because it could lead to interference in internal affairs by other races in the future.

'Damn it...'

He hated the moment he thought he could forge Goblin Dollars and stand against the 2nd Prince's army.

"Is there no way to find out?"

"If it's not magic that my family or I have come up with, but a magic that Lee Han independently created, then it's almost impossible to figure out how the magic is implemented."

"Is Lee Han that great?"

In particular, Isabella, who was invited to this meeting, insisted that it was impossible for the sake of the future of the empire.

"I disagree with that. When the Crown War is over, everyone will be loyal to one emperor. I also hope that Emperor Calman will be the one, but I don't want him to be controlled by the goblins. Rather, it would be better for Christian to inherit the throne."

Calman seemed to have the same thought, as this was a matter of his own future and life.

"You can't lead an army without money. You're telling me to die when we urgently need money?"

"Or..."

In the history of the empire, the princes who participated in the Crown War, except for the winner, died.

However, some princes were afraid of death and either fled far away from the empire or surrendered to the winner and lived a lifetime in captivity in exchange for their lives.

"Prince Christian, although not as violent as Prince Ryan, is said to be gentle and obedient. If you ask for mercy from Prince Christian on the condition of surrendering before the fight gets any deeper."

She, too, was one of those who worried about the security of the empire, just like Trinity Tepez.

"We may lose this Crown War, but it may be a good thing for both you and the empire. The longer the Crown War lasts, the more pleased the races that are hostile to us will be."

"Do you think Christian will spare my life?"

"Only Prince Christian would know that. Or at least ask him before the situation gets any worse."

"......"

After that, the 3rd Prince fell into deep thought alone.

And the next day.

The 3rd Prince sent a letter containing his intentions to the 2nd Prince's camp.

And not long after.

After reading the returned letter, the 3rd Prince agreed to be confined to a specific territory for the rest of his life, on the condition of receiving life insurance from the 2nd Prince, along with an unconditional surrender.

With the victory of the 2nd Prince, Christian Ismail, the Crown War came to an end.

In the empire, everyone was happy, saying that a new era had opened, and among them were the two who had supported the 2nd Prince both materially and morally.

Rockefeller, who had somehow known that the 2nd Prince would win, read the letter containing the news of victory in his office.
