THE EMPEROR OF TWO WORLDS

what a real stupidity

Seeing that the green garden in front of him had now turned into an extremely cold Icefield, Jani had already guessed that this was his sister's doing. When she turned to protest Veronica for the first attack, but it was stopped by Veronica who had guessed what her brother wanted to say that said "sister, no, although I can use the Ice element, but I haven't been able to freeze the entire park in one spell."

"if not you, that means Iris's mother?"

"yup! You are right!"

Hearing her answer on target, Jani began to feel cold sweat running down her head and asked "Veronica, do you think Iris' mother will be angry?"

"logically speaking, he would definitely be furious, sis! And of course you'll be angry too!"

"aha!! It will be the most exhausting day. Right, brother?"

"that's exactly what brother!"

"are you done talking? Alex? Veronica?"

Unbeknownst to everyone, there was a melodious voice capable of making others very fascinated, but to Jani and Veronica it sounded like the queen of hell who wanted to reap their lives.

No one answered the question from Queen Iris because whether it was Jani or Veronica they both felt quite a deep fear of Queen Iris. Jani himself felt confused by the fear he was experiencing now and he tried to ask Zein.

"Zeez! Do you know why I can feel fear when Queen Iris is angry?"

"that may be due to the pressure of her title called ICE QUEEN."

Zein added "there is also another factor that is about the master who is very respectful of the figure of a mother in the master."

"I take that as a compliment." Jani replied calmly then realized that Queen Iris was already behind the frozen crowd of mercenaries.

The atmosphere was very quiet as the footsteps of Queen Iris were clearly heard. When he was behind the crowd, Queen Iris only needed to clap once and then the bodies of the mercenaries who had currently frozen were instantly smashed to pieces and Queen Iris again walked up to Jani and Veronica.

Looking at the two people who lowered their heads, Queen Iris said "last morning I should have been having a tea party, but when I heard that the future Crown Prince and my son entered the labyrinth near the capital, I immediately canceled the event and rushed here along with our elite knights. So, I'd like to ask who had the idea of entering this labyrinth?"

"that's me!" jane replied calmly.

Hearing this, Queen Iris's eyes turned to Jani and said "well, we go back first and let your father give you punishment?"

"uh! I managed to get a temple built by a legendary merchant, but why stay in the law?!"

"hehe, ask your father about it, he told me to take you before him to be punished anyway you don't have to be afraid because when he said to give you a punishment, you didn't have to be punished, he said that while smiling happily and that was a good sign!"

Jani said nothing, but in his heart he corrected the words of Queen Iris "wanted to punish me but the King said that with a smile? Somehow this reminds me of a cunning old man who was on earth."

…

Meanwhile on earth:

*ACHOO!!!*

A loud sneezing sound was heard from the office of the SOE minister. A chief of directors who is currently presenting his report asks "Sir Minister, do you feel unwell?"

"no! I sneezed there might be one of my descendants who was currently insulting me somewhere. All righty! Continue reporting!"

The head of the board of directors swiftly continued his report.

….

Back to Jani's side:

Jani is currently in the throne room and kneeling before his father, the king, Roman Van Lester. Beside him was also the temple head of holy light who was staring at Jani with the gaze of a wolf who was starving.

Jani noticed the gaze, but she ignored it and waited for her father's decision who had just listened to her explanation.

After a while later, the King finally decided "alright, for your very reckless actions in entering the dangerous labyrinth and resulting in three brothers being injured and putting your brother's life at risk, I decided besides the right of ownership of the temple, I decided, all the treasures you get will be confiscated and made into royal treasures!"

'i was expecting it, this must have been a robbery by another fellow family.' Said Jani who had understood the true intentions of her father.

"do you mind the punishment I'm given?" ask the king to his son.

"no, I take it." Jani replied calmly then he stood up and then took off his storage bracelet and gave it to the palace butler.

As Jani was about to leave the throne room, he then heard the silent archbishop, now blatantly cursing at his father.

Seeing that, Jani just smiled and leaned against the nearby wall and watched a conversation that would soon begin.

"your majesty!! Why don't you take the ownership rights of the temple out of the hands of the third Prince!!?"

"one temple alone, has made me dizzy about 'donation money' which continues to grow every year. Now if I take care of one more temple, it's possible that my royal treasury won't be able to cover that 'donation money." The King replied, shaking his head, pretending that he could not afford the 'donation money' of the two temples.

Of course, this sentence was said by the King to rebuke about the money donated from the Bishop who continues to grow every year. Hearing the words of King Roman, the once fiery Bishop now fell silent and bowed silently beside the King.

The Bishop's Guard, who did not accept his condolences, said threateningly to the King "honor!! Please respect our Bishop!! Because our Bishop has been blessed by the Goddess of light in the central Katredal."

King Roman was a level 10 Fire element Witch and it made him have a great sense of superiority and also he started to hate someone who posed a threat to him. Hearing the bishop's words, made King Roman have an expression that has not been seen by everyone for a long time, namely Angry and the look in his eyes was very cold.

"what happens if I don't honor your bishop?"

"if that happens, then we'll report your piercing to the central cathedral."

Everyone was shocked by the stupid reply from the bodyguard and of course, the Bishop also noticed it and he immediately said "who started the King, he said, please do not take heart the words of the young holy knight. He still needs a lot to learn from the wisdom and ingenuity of his noble possessions!"

"aha! You don't have to strain so, Old Man!! I can forgive him." The King replied in a calm tone and it made the Bishop feel relieved. Unfortunately it didn't last long because the next words of the King looked back at the Bishop's bodyguard "but let me tell you a small fact, boy!  If after this you run to the central cathedral to report my actions to a group of Picik parents there, then I can make sure they all won't care about you and that you might be expelled from the ranks of the Knights of Holy Light."

The bodyguard wanted to refute the King's question, but it was stopped by the Bishop who gave him a silent look. After the guard fell silent, the Bishop said, "his Majesty the King, please show your wisdom and let this matter pass."

"alright, I'll stop, but Bishop let me tell you one last thing. Here is my kingdom and no one dares to threaten me except my three Elders!! Do you understand?"

The Bishop of course understood it because it was common knowledge that whoever dared to threaten the King would be confronted with the 'Three Death Queens of Westeria'.

Although he was so angry that his face turned red, the Bishop did not explode and open his body and said to the King "I understand it, your majesty! And also I mohan permission to leave first because there are some affairs that I need to do now."

"alright, you can go and remember! the day after tomorrow there will be the coronation of the third Prince to be the Crown Prince."

"i will definitely attend it, your majesty!"

After that, the Bishop along with some of his guards left the throne room. While they were in the hallway of the palace, they saw Jani looking at the map of the Arca continent without taking notice of the Bishop walking past him, but before they walked far enough Jani said "a Bishop who should be considered holy, now shamelessly wants to seize something owned by a young man. Heh! I wonder if his face has skin as thick as the capital?"

After saying that, Jani immediately moved towards the shadow of the painting and the guards who could not stand the words Jani immediately turned around and wanted to chase after Jani, but they did not see anyone there.

The Bishop immediately said "no need to pursue him! because when he's proud of being crown prince, that's when there's gonna be an interesting show to watch."

After hearing the words of the Bishop, the guards ignored Jani's words and again walked behind the Bishop saying "the Lord is right! I can't wait to see his shocked expression with his citizens rioting on such an important day!"

"right! It would be a very nice sight!" added another guard.

After the Company left, from the shadow of Jani's painting appeared and smiled coldly while speaking in his heart 'heh! Want to press me with mass pressure? What a real stupidity!'

After talking to himself, Jani said at the end of the hall that looked empty "you can get out now!"

There were a total of eight people who suddenly emerged from the palace hallway and they all knelt before Jani. The one who became their leader said, "prime prince, do you need anything?"

"that's right, uncle Zero! I'd like to ask, can you track down the paid thugs the church uses?"

"sure, it's very easy to do." Reply to a man called Zero by Jani.

"good, then you pay them double what the church has to offer and then have them spread bad rumors about the church that wants to monopolize the religion in this kingdom."

The Kingdom of Westeria did not order its citizens to worship any particular god. Therefore, in this kingdom many of them worship more than one god and there is even a group of people who still worship the god of darkness, Jothus though not doing it openly.

Hearing Jani's request, she immediately replied "alright! I'll do it soon!"

 "i'm waiting for good news from you." Jani answered and then he looked back at the painting with the map of the continent of Arca. When Jani sensed that the man had not left, he glanced back at the group and asked "Uncle Zero, do you need anything from me?"

"actually dear would like to ask his highness the prince."

"what's that?"

"Where did your majesty learn shadow magic from?"
