I BECAME A SKULL IN ANOTHER WORLD WITH THE LABYRINTH MASTER'S WORK.

CHAPTER 207: CROWN PRINCE

In the Ancient Imperial Capital, this place was the city that had the most population among the other imperial cities.

Almost all ancient humans came from all corners of the empire and lived in the capital, the reason most of the ancient humans came to the capital was to find better jobs.

However, in their hometowns, these ancient humans could only become ranchers or some other small jobs, earning from such jobs was very difficult to meet their daily living needs. After all, the empire was severely deprived of food at this time, causing the entire food and beverage resources to become expensive in the empire. It wasn't even strange to find the corpses of ancient people starving to death in every small town.

The main reason for the famine in the empire was the terrible state of nature, snow fell in the ancient empire for almost 7 months every year, this made it difficult for ancient humans to make fields.

Not to mention at 5 months it does not snow, the weather is still very cold, there is almost no summer at all in the empire.

Therefore, even though the imperial territory was very large, neither Ark nor Tersin was interested in seizing it. They considered the imperial lands to be like dead lands, with difficult terrain and always having bad weather, there was no advantage from seizing the imperial lands except for the enormous human resources.

In the Ancient Imperial Capital, there were approximately millions of inhabitants living here. The capital was protected by a gigantic wall and there were countless ancient humans walking around the city, whereas for residents other than ancient humans there was almost no one in the entire Ancient Empire. This place is famous for the name of the dead city, so no one from ancient humans was interested in living in this place, not even the Lords of the Labyrinth made a labyrinth in the ancient land.

Over the past few years, the empire's population has been increasing, even though there is a famine.

This certainly made the situation of food shortage worse with the increasing number of residents, even the Emperor was very confused to solve this problem.

With the spread of such a great famine that it caused death, some ancient humans loyal to the emperor began to lose their sense of loyalty.

Even in the north of the empire, tens of thousands of ancient humans had already rebelled despite being eventually suppressed and disappeared by the attacks of imperial warriors.

Surely eliminating the rebellion did not solve the problem at all, as long as the famine had not disappeared then the number of people who lost allegiance to the empire was decreasing.

The crown prince who saw this further increased his ambition to rebel against the Ancient Emperor now, however he had waited for hundreds of years to become Emperor, he said, but the current Emperor still had no sign of dying.

Even according to the best imperial physician, the current Ancient Emperor could still live for another 500 years which made the crown prince explode, how could he possibly wait another 500 years before becoming Emperor? Perhaps he would die first before he could become Emperor.

Therefore, the crown prince who could no longer wait decided to take advantage of the ancient humans who had been disloyal to the empire due to starvation, he secretly armed the rebels and waited for the right time to strike.

At first he planned to wait for decades more, at least until these rebels were already training to become a strong army.

Even the Emperor's protective force which was the most elite and loyal army in the empire lost half of its members, the crown prince who had previously decided to wait for decades more knew that the opportunity had finally come

Currently the crown prince was sitting in his workroom, then there was a man in military clothes who stood respectfully in front of him as well as a fat man with a brown beard who was standing next to the military man, from his clothes he looked like a smart man or even an imperial minister.

The crown prince has a body of 2 meters high and has muscles that look like bronze, he became the crown prince because among other princes then he has the strongest power. To be more precise, the crown prince was only chosen with the power of the princes.

Staring at the man wearing military clothes, the crown prince said coldly "General Folk, how has it been lately? Dad is already heavily injured, this is the best time to attack him! But you have not allowed our troops to come to the capital, without an army then there is no way we can defeat my father, he can become Emperor not without reason".

Folk was the left general of the empire, while the right general was so loyal to the emperor that he could not have betrayed him.

Folk began to sweat coldly against the anger of the crown prince "Master, the Emperor seemed to also realize that he was now very weak, therefore he strengthened the guard in the capital. It is currently impossible to bring troops to the capital without being noticed".

"Shelf!".

The crown prince hit the table angrily, he pointed his finger at Folk "When you know it though, then what? As long as we win, then all the problems are over! However if the chance this time is missed, we might not have another chance to defeat the Emperor. Folk, don't you understand things this easily?".

Folk immediately knelt on the ground in a panic "I've got it wrong sir, I'll start calling out the soldiers we've been hiding all along, I'm also ready to be punished for the mistakes I made!".

When the crown prince planned to punish Folk, however, the crown prince was grumpy and indifferent to the life and death of his followers. The man wearing the ministerial clothes beside Folk stepped forward to remove the anger of the crown prince "Master, everyone has ever made a mistake, let alone General Folk doing all this out of thinking about master. I don't think General Folk needs to be punished, after all the general's existence is necessary to win against the Emperor, not to mention that General Folk is very important to manage the imperial military in the future if we win".

Looking at the man wearing the minister's clothes, the crown prince finally sighed and threw away his worries.

He sat back in his chair and said grimly "General Folk, I have decided not to punish you, you better thank minister Kulen, without his persuasion, you must be severely punished for your actions".

"Thank you sir, thank you minister Kulen" Folk said slightly bowing to Kulen.

Kulen slightly nodded with a friendly smile, the crown prince said again to Kulen "Minister Kulen, do you think we can win against the current Emperor? With your intelligence, I'm sure you can already know the outcome of this war even though we haven't fought, have you?".
