Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Second Reincarnator
So Miss Maria, from now on please cooperate, yes. The words continued to ring in Mary's head. Issac said that when he unpacked the trump card he had been hiding.
How much does he know? How big is the information network he actually has? Questions about it continued to linger in his head.
Of course Maria also had a separate information network with the Moskov Empire. But the goal is definitely not for war. But considering Issac knew a lot of things, it gave him goosebumps. Very goosebumps.
Is one of the networks connected to it actually an agent affiliated with Issac? Was the palace official with whom he had a lot of contact a subordinate of Issac?
Maria shook her head. That's not the problem. Even if he assumed many times, he would not have a proper conclusion.
In the end, he simply chose not to make it Issac as an opponent. To prove that, he will approve the cooperation proposal that Issac submitted. It will also gain a lot of benefits.
"It's more troublesome than I thought. But the benefits are also more tempting. Geez, without realizing it I was the one who was actually in a desperate position. It's really terrible."
"Excuse me, Mr. Starfall would like to see you."
One of the senior servants who was escorting Issac and the other said that to Maria. He was a servant who also oversaw the movements of Issac.
"Alright, please allow yourself to come here."
Proposal has been approved. Is there anything he wants to talk about? But, as she was also curious, Maria decided to allow Issac to meet her. A few minutes later, Issac had sat down on the sofa and faced Maria.
"Thank you Miss Maria. Thanks to you, the kingdom is really helped. Again, thank you, Miss Mary."
Issac humbly lowered his head. It was a sincere thank you from him. She did not want Mary to be impressed by her humility.
"There's no need to thank you that much, Mr. Issac. Thanks to the proposals I submitted, I also gained a lot of benefits. But you're not just here to say thank you, are you?"
"of course. Miss Maria, I'm sorry if this question sounds unworn. But based on your magic energy...are you reincarnated?"
Maria who was drinking her tea was stunned. He almost choked. His hands and body shook violently. Where did he know that?! While Issac was still curious, he began to bring his hands back.
"A-what are you talking about, Mr Issac? I-I don't understand what you mean."
Issac lightly bowed his body and walked out of the office. But Mary had pointed something at her that could have left her dead in the blink of an eye.
"Have you said that, you thought that you could just run away, Mr Issac? No matter how strong you are, someone will die if I press this and hit your head."
Issac stopped and raised his hand. This made Maria more confused. Such habits are obvious......
"The fact is I don't want to force yourself to say it. But if it's come this far.want how else, right?"
Issac moved his finger and something Maria was holding, a gun, was instantly broken. The muzzle fell to the ground and the gun lost its function. Mary swallowed her saliva and took a few steps back.
"Calm Miss Maria. Can I call you Mary? Let's sit down and talk about this. I have no intention of hurting you or doing anything evil."
Maria worriedly and vigilantly sat down. Issac did not show any mischief or ill will. But being vigilant doesn't hurt. Issac calmly began to speak.
"Mary, you don't have to be afraid. Just like you, I am also a reincarnation. I can tell that from the magic energy you exuded. Other than me, does anyone know?"
Mary hesitated to speak. But looking at Issac, he became a little calm and started talking.
"There was. But not much. My father knew. But he's dead. My mother knows too but she lives far away from here. Then there was the pope of the Dea Theocracy. They all knew that."
Mary began to explain those who had known that she was a reincarnated One. Apparently not much. But the problem is that the pope of the Dea Theocracy knows this.
"Mary, as much as possible, do not let others know about this. It would be difficult to talk about reincarnation here. Instead, take this."
Isaac gave him a mirror. It was a communication tool he developed. Her qualities are below those worn by her and her lover but more than enough for Mary to wear.
"In the future we'll talk to this Miss Maria. Its function is similar to the teleconference of our old world. You know how to use it, right?"
Maria said nothing and just nodded. After that Issac went out. What a strange person. Thought Maria. He was sure Issac would not divulge about himself to others but...why?
