The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

"That Morty bastard... where did he get that stuff from!?"

In the hidden camp, the eldest prince angrily smashed the water cup on the table to the ground. The sound of the breaking startled everyone in the tent.

The commanders and staff officers certainly knew why the Crown Prince was angry, but they didn't know what to say to appease this moody leader.

After personally seizing the Scott Family, the eldest prince, who no longer needed to hide his true nature, revealed his true nature - having played the role of an incompetent lecher for so long, his personality had been completely distorted.

"That should belong to me... You idiots, why didn't you find out what he was doing earlier!?"

Of course the eldest prince understood that this was just venting his anger. After all, he had never taken the Border Lords and Aarons seriously from the beginning... and even if he heard strange rumors, he didn't take them to heart at all.

So he quickly controlled his emotions and returned to a relatively normal state.

"Forget it, now tell me how to get rid of that thing."

"Well, that giant battleship can release spiritual power for defense, so magic has no effect on it... But we still have the burning crystal cannon we got from the helpers."

"Helper, huh... Since that guy has placed such a big bet on me, I will naturally make good use of it."

The fact that the eldest prince was able to usurp the power of the great nobles and achieve what he is today was not just due to his own forbearance and talent.

A "supporter" whose identity has never been revealed publicly, but who is already tacitly known to most people, has been providing the Crown Prince with necessary resources and advice behind the scenes.

The reason why the eldest prince was able to usurp the power of the Scott family at the right time and become the ruler of the aristocratic faction in one fell swoop was precisely because he had such a hidden driving force behind him.

"However, the so-called power is something that anyone can possess."

After obtaining the technology to create spiritual weapons that could easily destroy fighting spirit and magic, the eldest prince immediately launched a counterattack against the nobles.

After he personally killed several nobles who had never taken him seriously, no one dared to resist anymore.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we have just received an encrypted message from your 'investor'."

"Oh? Bring it here, let me see what advice he gave?"

After taking the paper with the strange symbols copied on it, the eldest prince's expression changed several times in just a few seconds, and finally he revealed a weird smile.

His retainers, on the other hand, began to tremble with unreasonable fear.

"Interesting, you actually want me to take such a risk...Hahahaha! Interesting!"

Since the eldest prince was usually so moody, the retainers never dared to say anything - because the eldest prince might pull out a musket that could fire spiritual power at any time and directly take away their insignificant lives.

Such a tyrant cannot be a good emperor.

"Very good, then I will give it a try! Order the entire army to stop the action! Send a letter to my stupid brother and tell him that I can temporarily stop the war and have a good talk with him!"

...What is going on here?

He had clearly been commanding his army to approach the imperial capital, and would soon be able to crush the Second Prince's rebels... Why did the First Prince suddenly decide to cease fire at this time?

What kind of advice did the "supporter" hiding behind the scenes give?

……

"I see, you're planning to negotiate first. It seems my incompetent brother has realized that an army of ordinary people alone is not enough."

In a secret basement in the imperial capital, the second prince was sitting at a long table with a group of soldiers who exuded a murderous aura, discussing the information they had just received.

The huge white bird in the sky stopped moving after destroying the warships of both sides. No matter how it was provoked and tested, it did not respond at all, and the advanced magic array that it was proud of was unable to break through the barrier constructed by spiritual power.

So after a brief panic, the second prince decided to ignore the observer who suddenly appeared in the sky and concentrate on dealing with the eldest prince who might launch a general attack on the imperial capital at any time.

"This is an enemy plot! I can't believe it!"

"This is of course a ploy, but it is also a fact that our forces are inferior to the enemy's."

Since Duke Booker's territory is still contaminated by spiritual energy, the Second Prince's side does not have a stable logistics base.

Now, one third of the soldiers under his command were temporarily recruited from surrounding areas, and it was impossible to expect them to have much combat effectiveness.

Therefore, if the eldest prince forcibly attacks the imperial capital at all costs, no matter how hard the second prince persists, he will most likely end up in a miserable defeat.

"Since the other side has taken the initiative to propose a ceasefire and peace talks, we must of course make good use of this opportunity - what does our 'backup' say?"

"...they just sent us a batch of mutation cores not long ago, which can create 500 level 4 monsters. They haven't made any comments on the current situation."

"Don't rely too much on uncontrollable things. If those monsters really go crazy, they will attack us as well."

In fact, the second prince did not reach this point entirely by his own strength.

The Duke Booker who supported him had no technical background and was just a pure financial sponsor - and the technology for artificial monsters and human-mutated monsters actually came from another party.

Over the past few years, he has been receiving secret funding from that mysterious backer.

In order to repay the man, he also did something that affected the fate of the empire according to that man's request.

- Eliminate the loyal followers of Armand VII and kill the family of Marquis Moti in the border territory.

"Even if he didn't mention it, I wouldn't ignore such a threat."

For the Second Prince who will sooner or later raise the banner of rebellion, Marquis Moti, who possesses great strength and popularity, is an important target that must be eliminated as soon as possible.

And in the end, he successfully completed the task.

In addition, although the identity of the other party can be roughly inferred from the details of the transactions of funds and goods, the second prince has no intention of taking the initiative to uncover the mystery.

"Send someone to reply and tell them that we are willing to cease fire and negotiate, but we must get the guys above involved as well."

"You mean, is that..."

"Heh, my incompetent brother probably has the same idea as me."

——As long as you find the opportunity, kill all your opponents in one go.

Whether it was the eldest prince or the second prince, their ideas were actually the same. Only by eliminating all the opponents that stood in their way could they obtain everything they wanted.

But what is the person who is looking down at all this in the sky expecting?
