Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
A Hugs To The Princess
It is not clear whether the monster invasion was a result of human activities or natural events. The Manstein Faction has claimed that it was the work of the prince (princess) Chris. But after the investigation, there is no evidence at all that indicates that the incident was human.
Moreover, they all know, from the side of the prince (princess) Chris, he does not have a mage as great as that who can control thousands of monsters at a time. Is it possible that he hid another card under his cloak? That's not the case.
Even as powerful as any mage, no one would be able to control that many monsters at the same time even if it was a hero party 500 years ago. So even though they were convinced that it was the act of the prince (princess) Chris though, they had no proof at all.
"They're blaming each other, aren't they? Well princess Chris didn't do anything. Accusations of crime would absolutely not deserve to be pinned on him."
Issac only spoke for himself while waiting for the sun to rise from the east. Meanwhile in her bed, Carolina and Angelica were sound asleep. Their bodies were still covered in blankets but the two girls hugged each other. Without wearing anything. How erotic.
"Even if there is, the evil should be bestowed upon me, who is the mastermind of all these disasters. Am I evil? It's probable. But sometimes, crimes like this are necessary."
He did not care much about the fate of the imperial people. Well, maybe he thought that, but the fact that he didn't kill a single civilian proves that he's at least still thinking about them.
After all, Issac provides a lot of help to the citizens. He brought groceries from the kingdom and provided living expenses for everyone. So a little, he was responsible for his own actions.
He's done his job. The rest let the tomboy princess take care of it. How did he take advantage of this mess and how he maneuvered, Issac wanted to see his charm from it.
Come to think of it, it is true, Chris has many similarities with Aurellia. Equally concerned with the fate of kingdoms and empires, caring towards others, intelligent, and a little naive. But he did not hate such naivety.

Chris was gathering with his trusted people and saw a list of beneficiaries. Most aid has been received and various regions are recovering. He and his men closely monitor their progress.
The capital is no better. The prices of goods soared as the main production sites of various basic necessities such as food and clothing were destroyed by monsters.
Fortunately the La-Sa Guild intervened. They filled the imported goods from the kingdom in the Reichstaag market so that the price became restrained. Although for the imperial economy it was not good, but at least, some of the prices of basic necessities became down.
La-Sa guild also sent help directly supervised by the head of the La-Sa branch of the Reichstaag branch guild, Carolina Von Lambard. He made sure that the aid did not fall into the wrong hands. More than five ships carrying aid have been leaning on the imperial port and a merchant caravan carrying necessities of life has come from the Randall region and has entered the Mariendolf region.
This way, the recovery process will run faster and life may be restored. What Chris did not realize, the support for him was getting wider and bigger. Especially among the common people and some nobles. They respect Chris for moving fast once disaster strikes.
Chris himself had heard rumors accusing him. But he himself has clearly stated that it was not he who caused all this. Many believe that Chris is not the cause of this. Of course, maybe they even blame their own master for not being very good at overcoming the crisis.
"All right, enough to get here now. I will immediately go to the emperor and explain how things are now. Thank you so much for all your help."
They all nodded and left Chris alone. After all his confidants had come out, he lowered his head and began to cry in silence. To be honest, he was already not strong because he had to bear this heavy burden.
He has a twin brother who will actually bequeath his father's throne. But because he had died, Chris who was ten years old at that time decided to stop living as a woman and decided to change the position of his brother as a prince.
She cut her beautiful long hair to look like a man and learned how to be a man. He became a tomboy. But even so, his father supported him. So too with the others.
But when the nobles began to act against the will of the emperor, he began to experience a heavy burden. Nobles were often reluctant to admit themselves and conspired to prosecute him. They don't know that Chris is a girl. From the beginning, the king had announced that his two twins were a man and Chris was hidden inside the palace.
"Don't cry Chris. Crying can win your heart and drive away your sadness. But that doesn't solve any problems."
Someone hugged himself from behind. That is Issac. That's what Chris wanted. Someone who understands himself and wants to be a place for various. His cries grew louder and he stood up to hug Issac tightly.
If until now she had been a girl who could live without thinking about anything, she would have followed Issac wherever he went.
