Shota’s Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 791 Delayed again



When the trials were over, there was only one thing that was left.

The executions.

Most of these trials had ended in the verdict of a death sentence, so naturally these needed to be executed.

The fourth prince decided to hold these as public executions since he wanted the public to see the fates of these corrupt nobles and criminals. There were many people in the crowd who cursed these people and threw things.

It was clear that they had suffered in some way because of these people being executed.

In a way, this was the fourth prince’s way of letting these people vent the feelings that had been dwelling inside of them the entire time.

He was punishing these people even further by putting them through this treatment.

But that didn’t matter to us since we didn’t go and see the executions.

The way that we acted was as if we had completely washed our hands of these things.

That was because there were other things that we needed to take care of.

“Go away for a while.”

That was what the fourth prince said to me during our meeting after the executions started.

This was a meeting that didn’t just have me and the fourth prince, it also had the king and Angela here as well. Both Angela and I seemed surprised by what the fourth prince said, but the king seemed like he already knew this.

After looking at the fourth prince with a confused look for a bit, I asked, “What do you mean? There’s still plenty of things to do here, I can’t just leave, right?”

The fourth prince shook his head and said, “No, it’s better if you leave right now.”

I was even more confused when I heard this.

The fourth prince didn’t explain as he turned to Angela to say, “At the same time, it’s best if we delay your wedding for a bit.”

This time, Angela wasn’t able to sit still.

She immediately knitted her brows to look at both the fourth prince and the king. Sᴇaʀᴄh the ɴøvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

It was clear by the look on her face that she wasn’t happy, but she was giving the two of them a chance to explain.

The fourth prince and the king revealed bitter smiles when they saw this, but they did explain it.

“With everything that’s happening, it’s just not a good time. Before we can do anything like that, we still need to settle things in our kingdom. So we need you to hide out during this time so that no one will get any ideas.”

I understood why they were doing this, but I was worried that…

In the end, it seemed that my worry wasn’t necessary as it seemed that Angela understood.

She was a member of the royal family, so of course she would understand.

However, it wasn’t as if that stopped her from being unhappy about this.

So she narrowed her eyes to look at the fourth prince before saying, “How long?”

The fourth prince was surprised to be asked this.

He looked at the king and the two of them exchanged glances as if they didn’t know what to say.

In the end, the fourth prince just shook his head and said, “I don’t know. It could take a few weeks, it could even take a few months. In short, this isn’t something that came be done that easily.”

This time, Angela didn’t take it as well.

She pouted her lips as she glared at the two of them before saying, “Make it happen faster.”

The two of them had surprised looks on their faces before revealing bitter smiles again. The fourth prince just said with a serious look, “This isn’t something that can be rushed, it’s something for the benefit of the entire kingdom. This must be something that is done carefully and properly.”

When he became serious like this, Angela no longer responded.

It was clear by the look in her eyes that she understood what he was saying, but…she was still unhappy because of it.

The fourth prince knew that there was nothing that he could say to her, so instead he turned back to me to say, “For now, you should go back to your territory. It’s out of the way and a place that you control, so it should be safe.”

I looked at him for a bit without answering before asking, “Plus it’ll be a long time before I’ll be able to go back?”

The fourth prince didn’t say anything, but the look on his face made it clear.

Once I came back this time, it would be time for the wedding.

But along with the wedding, there was something else that had been planned.

The coronation.

The king had been planning to step down as soon as I married Angela, which meant that the moment that we got married, I would be taking over as the new king.

As the king, it was expected that I stay in the capital and take care of stately matters.

It was expected that I wouldn’t be able to leave unless it was for important business.

So in a sense, this was the last trip that I was getting before I was chained to the capital.

In a sense, this was like the last trip that I would have as a free man.

Because after this, I would only be able to act when the benefit of the kingdom needed me to act.

Since the fourth prince didn’t say it out loud, I didn’t force him.

I had already accepted this fate, so it wasn’t as if I would back down now.

But I was grateful that he was giving me this chance to settle everything before settling down as the king of this kingdom.

There were certainly things that I wanted to settle before this and there were people that I wanted to bring back to the capital with me.

This trip would be the perfect chance to take care of everything.
