"Why men?"
"Because, I myself do not know the true reason, and I do not care, if the incompetent who is born is a woman like me, then the incompetent who is born from my womb is also a woman. Sure. And, since from 1 uterus only 1 incompetent is born, the number of incompetents per generation does not change. However, if the incompetent is born male, then the incompetent next generation can be male or female. There is a reason why a king should have many wives. And, this is why my family is only a branch family, not the main Alhold family."
The reason the King had to have multiple wives was common, in order to find a son and avoid a seizure of the throne with a nephew or sister. I don't give a shit.
What interests me more is the fact that 1 uterus can only give birth to 1 incompetent. Why is it like that? If the incompetent goes public, it may be able to examine the cause. However, because we ourselves do not like to go public, so all that is just incompetent family knowledge.
"By the way, if you want to ask me more, maybe I know more. At least, do you want to make a video call?"
Video call with the Queen of the Kingdom of Nina. Do I need to think?
"Sorry, but I have no intention of communicating with your mother."
"...."
"And again, suppose, I say suppose, I want to see the Queen even come to the Kingdom of Nina, how will your mother transfer the rights to the throne that previously belonged to your brother to me?"
"Well, that...." Tera scratching her head. "Sorry, I don't know at all."
Ah, besides Rina, there is one more thing that baffles, namely the behavior of Tera. Tera did not look stupid, unlike Rina. He was more like an innocent, like a child who still believed in justice.
Honestly, I don't feel at all comfortable talking to these two people. Not at all. And, I want to try something.
"Rina," I turned to the right. "I won't question incompetence. All I want to ask is the Queen's invitation for me to take her throne from you. But is it true like this? Is it true your mother invited me?"
Rina, with her eyes still closed, replied, "You think?"
"I don't feel any lie from your sister's words and gestures. However, I feel like there is something else going on."
"And why is that?"
"If I told you, your sister doesn't look like the Alhold family."
"Eh?" Tera was surprised by my statement.
"He said it all without any request, without negotiation. In fact, as far as I've gone, even with my family, we still think about the advantages and disadvantages of all things, even if it's just personal desire. Here, I don't see it in your sister."
"Is that really?" Rina asked back. "I think he has considered the advantage, which is to prevent the wars of Bana'an and Nina. Aye, right?"
"Is that true?"
"...."
"Maybe, in general terms, this is quite beneficial. However, when viewed from Alhold's glasses, no, right?"
Suddenly a grin spread across Rina's face. At this moment, I could feel a mask as if it was removed.
"Are you going to tell me what's on your mind, Lugalgin Alhold?"
"Alright, I think, from the beginning your and the Queen's purpose was war with the Bana'an. Wh why? With the war, you have a position more favorable to me."
"Eh?"
Everyone in this room was shocked to hear my guess. Only Lina was not surprised. His face still grinned.
"If there's a war, there are two possibilities, and this depends a lot on my participation." I started to explain. "If I don't participate, it's almost certain that Bana'an loses. Wh why? Because the Nina kingdom definitely has a control-busting weapon. And since military vehicles are made of metal connected together, one bullet is enough to shut off the tank's rotational engine and render it malfunctioning.
"However, if I participate, Bana'an can win, it can also lose. It all depends on the extent to which I can install anti-busting devices or supply control weapons. If successful, the Bana'an can overcome the control-removing weapons possessed by the Nina Kingdom. And, of course, can win the war."
Although he seemed to ask, the tone and he said more to test. And, I took the test. I also started to give answers.
"Yes. Unfortunately, inevitably, I have to participate. Wh why? Because if Bana'an loses, the Nina kingdom can execute the entire Royal family, which only the remaining Empress Rahayu and Emir, as well as those whom they consider dangerous. In other words, my life, Inanna, and our family are in danger.
"However, if I intervened and won, my contribution to the victory of the Bana'an could not be denied. And, indirectly, the citizens, perhaps the military and nobles as well, will push for the Emir to take the title of royal princess back and make me King.
"And since the Nina Kingdom lost, it is very likely that the military will continue to push and even fuse the Nina kingdom into one part of Bana'an. In other words, the choice is, lose and my family is executed or win but I run for King of the Bana'an and Nina Kingdoms."
No one responded. Everyone is silent. In fact, Tera widened her eyes and her mouth was wide open.
"Gin," Emir in. "Are you not overreacting? Do you think the royal Queen of Nina, and Princess Nina, will sacrifice her people just for personal desires?"
"Emir, do you remember what I said when you threatened to spread the footage of our conversation in that car? When you asked me to become a regal knight."
"God......"
The Emir did not give a further response. He just fell silent.
To make it more convincing, I added an opinion.
"And remember, I cleaned up the Cleinhad family and the traitors just because of my personal desires. In fact, in hindsight, the Cleinhad family was the one who made this Kingdom stable. And the traitors were simply obeying the superiors. Then, do you think that the Queen, as well as this Princess master, will not do the same to me? Moreover, given the same blood flowing in our bodies."
"That's....."
I again reminded the Emir that I was the one who caused the black market in Bana'an to go wild because the Cleinhad family disappeared. And I also reminded him of how the fate of the schneider agent who betrayed even if only obeyed Fahren's orders. They were all killed just because of my personal interests and desires, nothing more.
Do I care about this kingdom? the answer is no.
"So, apparently, my acting as a foolish princess is no longer needed, huh?"
Yes, if his behavior as a stupid princess is acting, everything makes sense. However, for some reason, I felt that there was still something stuck when I saw this princess.
"Then, Asura."
