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

Aarons did not meet the third prince, but just stayed in the hotel for a short while and then left.

However, reporters would not let this incident go - a contestant who had officially and publicly announced that he had registered for the competition could actually enter and leave the supervision team's residence at will.

Needless to say, there must be something shady going on here!

[The new Marquis Aarons Moti has publicly announced that he has signed up to join the war. With his local advantage, what secret cards does he have? 】

[A large number of witnesses confirmed that Marquis Aarons could freely enter and exit the hotel where the supervisory team was stationed, and he seemed to have a good personal relationship with the third prince. Does this mean that there will be some covert manipulation in this battle of justice? ]

[An unnamed person said that the territory fought for in the Battle of Zhengrong was supposed to be inherited by Marquis Aarons alone, but it is said that after he learned of His Majesty's plan, he took the initiative to return the territory to the Empire. ]

Although most media reports pointed to Aarons' relationship with the shady dealings, a small number of media outlets took the opportunity to build on the issue and indirectly praise Aarons' integrity.

Where do you think the opportunity to fight for the territory came from? It was because the Marquis voluntarily handed over his territory! So what if he has some relationship with the referee? Even if he wants all the territory back, there is nothing wrong with that!

——Although I don’t know what these public opinions will eventually turn into, no one is paying attention to Aarons’ strength anymore.

Strength? So what if he has no strength? This is the only honorary marquis in the empire, and he can receive a salary! If he doesn't have some kind of relationship with the royal family, how could such an incompetent waste get such a status?

In the eyes of some "interested people", Aarons has become a piece of fat meat with a rich aroma - as long as you can find a way to get in touch with him, you may be able to obtain unexpected resources.

……

Of course, Aarons himself has not realized such changes, or... he simply has no time to think about it now.

"Damn it, why do I feel like every step I take is calculated by the other party?"

"I don't quite understand, Master. Judging from the principle of equivalent exchange that I have always believed in, although the emperor is using you to attract the firepower of all parties, it actually improves your reputation."

"Yeah, I don't understand... They actually let the public opinion link me to the royal family? My dead father and brother shouldn't be that valuable, right?"

Not only did Aarons not understand the answer to this question, but even Xia Ye, the think tank, felt that some key clue was missing.

"I want you to contain the two princes after this... that's unlikely. You don't actually have any cards to play except for me and Miss Karin."

"Master, I think the reason may be simpler."

Karin, who had been playing the role of a bystander, unexpectedly expressed her thoughts at this time - and this made Aarons and Xia Ye frown at the same time.

"Although it's just a hunch, I think there must be a huge force hidden here that cannot be ignored... It's so powerful that it can even change other people's code of conduct and make them willingly do this kind of loss-making business."

“That’s a possibility indeed…!”

"No, no, no! You should also consider the rationality for a moment! If such an outrageous guy really exists... then what role do you want to play by dragging me into this?"

Not only did Aarons not dare to consider this possibility, he even felt a chill down his spine.

……

No matter what Aarons thought, he rushed to the hotel where the third prince was staying on time early the next morning.

All three members of the supervision team were here today. One of them was a middle-aged man with several scars on his face. He was wearing a military uniform over his tall and strong body. When he saw Aarons, he even laughed and patted him on the back.

Aarons, who was almost beaten to death, immediately knew that this man was Gemail, the commander of the Fourth Border Defense Corps.

"I never thought that a little guy like you would become a marquis! Hahahaha! I used to say that your father was too partial, but I didn't expect... What a pity."

"I heard that my father had a close personal relationship with you. I hope that the Commander can take good care of me in the future."

"Hahaha, you did a big thing last time, little guy! Maybe in a few years, I'll have to ask you to take care of me!"

The legion commander certainly knew what happened during the last beast tide. As a soldier, he understood it more thoroughly than ordinary people.

"Uncle Gemaier, did the Marquis do anything remarkable before?"

"Oh, that is a very great thing! But it would be best if the Marquis himself told you about it."

"What? Can I listen to it too?"

What? Are you still going to let me tell you about the beating I received?

Aarons, feeling somewhat embarrassed, could not help but roll his eyes - these three supervisors who were sitting with him at the long table, waiting for the live broadcast of the spiritual vision, seemed to be particularly interested in his affairs.

I was just a useless person before! How come I became popular after going to the capital?

Aarons, who was totally confused, could only pretend to be serious, staring at the huge psychic screen, waiting for the live broadcast to begin.

[…This is the Empire Central Psychic Viewing Station! We are now about fifty miles away from Marvell City. The crew is ready for long-distance filming. We will broadcast the live broadcast of Marvell City for you from this commanding height!]

With the help of advanced light magic, the photographer from the other world easily magnified the scene more than 20 kilometers away to the point where he could clearly see everyone's appearance.

[Marquis Aarons has recently made an official announcement that all illegal mercenaries who refuse to evacuate will be eliminated. Today is the final evacuation deadline, but these illegal mercenaries are still stationed outside the city and have even built defensive positions! ]

Although those people were just mercenaries who were paid to do the job, more than a thousand of them were still a force that could not be underestimated. Even if the regular army went to wipe them out, there would likely be hundreds of casualties.

The life of every imperial soldier should not be wasted in such a place - so Aarons also wanted to know what kind of battle plan the Empire had formulated.

[It is now seven o'clock in the morning, and we have not seen any troops belonging to Marquis Aarons appear yet.]

"It's seven o'clock, so it should start soon."

After hearing the third prince's muttering, Aarons became more focused.

[Our colleagues in Moti City are preparing to interview Marquis Aarons. We hope he can explain today's... Wait! Turn the camera up! What is that?]

After the somewhat panicked voice of the war correspondent was heard, the live broadcast camera began to shake violently.

When the image on the screen stabilized again, everyone watching the live broadcast saw an incredible scene -

A huge black cloud was slowly... no! Flying towards Marvell City at high speed from the horizon!

[Why are the clouds so low... No! That's a fog barrier of dark magic! Could it be that...]

When the black cloud, which was only two or three hundred meters above the ground, flew to the vicinity of Maville City at an incredible speed, the turbid cloud that looked like mist finally burst apart, revealing the thing hidden in it -

The giant flying object, which looked like a huge ship flying upside down in the air and was several times larger than the passenger airship, finally revealed its true appearance to everyone.

[It's actually the Imperial Navy's air battleship!? No!! That black paint and golden emblem... could it be!?]

——At this time, everyone watching the live broadcast could clearly see that on the huge pure black hull, which was estimated to be nearly 300 meters long, there were obvious golden royal emblems and the family emblem of Marquis Moti painted on it.

Then a burst of interfering noise suddenly sounded, directly covering the sound of the broadcast.

[…Good morning, fellow citizens.]

When that clear and elegant voice came from his spiritual vision, Aarons stood up from his seat in shock.

[This is the Empire's mobile palace in the sky, the Royal Guards' "Prison Flower" special cruiser. ]

[My name is Claire Armand, daughter of His Majesty King Armand VII——]

——The Princess of the Empire.
