Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 707 The clash of titans

Once we had finished with the Beirut Kingdom, it was time to move to the next kingdom.

However, this was not one that was as easy to deal with as the Beirut Kingdom.

Unlike the Beirut Kingdom that was a den of corruption because of those that sat at the top, this next kingdom had someone who was holding it together. This one person had the same status as the fourth prince in our kingdom.

We were heading to the Midra Kingdom.

I was surprised by the one that greeted us since I never expected this person to come personally.

It was the second prince who led the delegation that welcomed us.

Though, he didn't really lead it in a way that one would expect.

The official leader was the prime minister of the Midra Kingdom, but the way that everyone acted made it clear that the second prince was the one that was actually in charge.

As expected of a hidden mastermind kind of character.

The prime minister of the Midra Kingdom introduced us to everyone that was in their party, but when it came to the second prince…

It almost seemed like he didn't intend to draw any attention to himself.

So the fourth prince was the one that went forward to greet him as a member of our party that was just as insignificant as the second prince was in his party.

This might seem like an inconsequential meeting, but it wasn't the case for me.

For me, it seemed like a meeting of the titans since these two were famous mastermind characters in the game. I was very curious just how the two of them would act towards each other.

And…it was surprisingly simple.

It didn't seem like either of them were saying anything special, it almost seemed like they were just chatting with each other.

It was far from the clash that I thought would happen between the two of them.

When the meet and greet was over, we were brought to the castle by the prime minister.

I found that the second prince had actually disappeared from the area, whether it was to take care of his own matters or if it was because he was planning on heading to the castle first.

The fourth prince came back to me during this time and said, "He certainly didn't disappoint."

I was surprised at first when I heard this, but I quickly started asking him what he meant by this.

The fourth prince didn't really give an answer when I asked him this.

Instead, he just seemed to look off into the distance as he said, "That man is hiding more secrets than anything thinks. He has something that he wants to do, something that is very interesting."

I raised a brow to look at the fourth prince as if I was asking him what that was, but the fourth prince chose not to elaborate.

Instead, he just had an amused look on his face as if he had found something funny.

I really didn't understand what he was thinking, but there wasn't anything that I could do about it if he wasn't going to say anything.

When we arrived at the castle, it was the same as before.

We were led to the throne room where the king and the ministers were all waiting for us.

They wanted the same thing as before, but this time, we didn't have any way of rejecting since we didn't have anything on the Midra Kingdom.

Unlike the Beirut Kingdom, they weren't behind on their reparation payments, so there wasn't anything that we could do to keep them at bay.

They did the same thing as the Beirut Kingdom where the princess came forward to greet us. Then the king of the Midra Kingdom had wanted the princess to guide us around during our stay in their kingdom.

Since we didn't have a way to reject them, it seemed like we would be stuck with this.

Or at least that was what it seemed until the second prince suddenly stepped forward.

We didn't notice him until now since he had been hiding in the crowd, but when he stepped out, he suddenly became the center of attention.

With the way that everyone looked at him, there was no mistaking the second prince's fame in this Midra Kingdom.

In fact, it almost seemed like he was someone who was even more popular than the current king. It was to the point where even the king looked a bit uncomfortable being overshadowed by his son like this.

But the king had been on the throne for a long time, it would take a lot to really shake him.

The king took the initiative by asking, "Do you have some other ideas?"

The second prince nodded before saying, "Your majesty, if you would allow it, I wish to personally show the guests from the Kite Kingdom around."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

This further cemented just what kind of position the second prince had in the Midra Kingdom.

After staring at his son for a bit, the king suddenly said, "Are you sure about this? I'm sure that you're still busy with your work."

The second prince said with a casual smile, "Your majesty, please don't worry. I'll take care of all my work and still have time to show the guests around."

The king had an awkward look on his face when he heard this, but he eventually nodded in agreement even though it didn't seem like he was willing.

Once he received permission, the second prince didn't mind anyone else who was here as he turned to look at me to say, "Shall we?"

I was certainly surprised to see the second prince doing all of this, but I gave a nod before following him.

Following close behind me was the fourth prince.

Our group was led by the second prince until we reached a private room in this castle.
