<h4>Chapter 572 Special privilege (2)</h4>


    This token had only appeared in theter parts of the game, near the end of the noble quest line.


    It was a token that had been taken forcefully by the fourth prince to enforce his will on the people of the capital when he started his coup. So I had seen how powerful this token could be.


    But why did the fourth prince have it now?


    It should have been something that was forcefully taken from the kingter in the game…


    Could it be that the fourth prince had this all along?


    If so, then what was the point of the fourth prince''s coup in the game?


    The king should have already trusted the fourth prince at this time and should have made him his sessor, so why did things progress the way that they did in the game?


    When I learned all of this, I couldn''t help feeling even more confused about the plot of the game.


    It seemed like there was some kind ofrge hidden plot that no yer had been able to discover before this…


    It was just a good thing that I was used to revealing a calm look to disguise my emotions or else all of this would have been shown to everyone.


    The fourth prince just continued by saying, "Since I have this, I think that I''m more than qualified to represent his majesty in this matter, don''t you think so?"


    The marquis was still shocked when he heard this, but then he suddenly brought his head down and said, "In light of the service that my family has provided, I ask your highness for mercy."


    As soon as he said this, it was clear that he admitted his wrongdoings.


    He was no longer trying to act tough since he knew that there was nothing to gain from it.


    At this point, his only option was to show submission and try to soften the punishment as much as he could, or else he really might be executed…


    So the marquis was trying to negotiate with the fourth prince.


    The fourth prince wasn''t surprised to see this, but he didn''t seem like he cared.


    It seemed that he had already made his decision and he wouldn''t be showing any mercy to the marquis.


    However, he suddenly turned to me to ask, "Brother Zwein, what do you think about this?"


    I had been deeply lost in my thoughts when I heard this, but I was jolted out of them since it was the fourth prince who asked this.


    I looked at the fourth prince with a confused look and then looked at the marquis before slowly figuring out what was happening.


    But I was surprised to see that the fourth prince was actually asking my opinion on this matter since there was no real need for this. That was until I realized that he was using this as an opportunity to show just how close we were.


    So I said with a sigh, "I have no opinions on this matter. I''ll leave it up to brother."


    The fourth prince gave a nod before turning to the marquis to say, "Since my brother has said this, then we''ll just go with what I said before. Your territory and your title will be revoked and you will be banished from this kingdom without a single possession. If you try to enter our kingdom again, then know that it will not go well for you."


    The marquis looked up in shock when he heard this.


    He never thought that even when he submitted, he would have his title revoked and his territory taken from him.


    The one small constion that was there was that he would keep his life since he was only exiled from this country, but it was still hard for him to ept.


    But what could he do?


    The fourth prince had already spoken and there was nothing for him to say.


    His men had been taken from him and he was currently trapped in his dungeon.


    The fourth prince no longer cared about the marquis and turned to look at the cloaked figures behind him to say, "Send someone to capture his family and reim his wealth. Don''t let them take a single thing."


    The cloaked figures nodded before disappearing.


    When he was done with that, the fourth prince turned to me to say, "Then brother, shall we go?"


    He even took me by the shoulder and started pushing me out of this ce, as if to show just how close I was.


    Was this the reason why he had left the marquis alive?


    When the marquis left this country, would he spread the news that I was close to the fourth prince?


    I didn''t know if this was a good thing or a bad thing, but I was certain that it would have an effect on me in the future.


    As we were leaving, the marquis had fallen silent, but I could see that he was looking at me with a strange look.


    It was clear that he was trying to figure out just what kind of rtionship I had with the fourth prince.


    After that was all taken care of, the fourth prince actually didn''t stay in my territory any longer.


    As soon as we came up from the dungeons, he went outside and was getting ready to leave even though it was alreadyte in the afternoon.


    I wanted to convince him to stay, but he said, "I have to get back to the capital as soon as possible to report this matter to my royal father and make preparations. In a week, there should be someone that wille with your appointment as a general. When that timees, get your army ready to head to the battlefront."


    I was certainly surprised by this, but I gave a nod of confirmation after hearing this.


    The fourth prince gave a nod too before patting me on my shoulder and saying, "Good luck to you and stay safe."


    Without another word, the fourth prince left.


    He came and left just like a storm.
