Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure C.782 Real fourth prince

The fourth prince raised his hand when he heard this.

He didn't tell the guards to move away, but he did stop them from doing what they had been about to do. Though the guards had stopped, that didn't mean that they let go of the duke's wife and daughter.

They were still restraining them and even had the swords still pointed at them, as if they would do what they had been planning to do at any moment.

Everything would depend on what Duke Yuletide would say next.

Duke Yuletide had a very ugly look on his face as he looked at the fourth prince, but he still said, "I'll tell you what you want to know."

The fourth prince gave a nod before moving forward, as if he was giving Duke Yuletide a chance to say what he wanted to say.

However, Duke Yuletide tried to move even closer to the fourth prince before being restrained by the guards. He wasn't allowed to move any closer to the fourth prince than this by the guards.

They were watching him carefully, as if they were expecting him to play a trick at any moment.

But to the surprise of the guards, the fourth prince suddenly raised his hand and said, "It's fine."

The guards wanted to say something to stop the fourth prince, but the fourth prince just ignored them as he stepped forward. He moved in close to Duke Yuletide and whispered something that made Duke Yuletide's eyes tremble.

But in the end, Duke Yuletide gave a nod and revealed a defeated look.

With a sigh, he started saying some things that only the fourth prince could hear. He didn't attempt to try and hurt the fourth prince at all, he just kept talking the whole time as if he was confessing everything.

That just went to show how defeated Duke Yuletide really was.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this, even his wife and daughter were shocked as they had never seen him like this.

But there was a person that wasn't shocked to see all of this.

I was just staring at the fourth prince the entire time with a complicated look.

I didn't look at Duke Yuletide since I already knew that this would be the result. I knew that as long as the fourth prince was like this, this was the only way that this could end.

That was because this was who the fourth prince was.

This was the true fourth prince.

This was the fourth prince from the game.

Cold, efficient, and terrifying.

The things that he did could be considered inhumane, but there was no doubting the efficiency of what he did. He was someone who accurately found the weaknesses of those that he was targeting and exploited those weaknesses to get what he wanted.

He didn't care if they were considered cruel or vindictive, he just did what he wanted.

That was how terrifying the real fourth prince was.

That was why he was considered the final villain of the noble quest line.

Though in this world, I had seen less of this side of him and more of the silly side of him. However, that didn't mean that this terrifying side of him didn't exist anymore.

He was still there hidden under the surface, able to come out at any time.

I knew the circumstances that the fourth prince suffered from, so I didn't want to let this side of him out unless it was absolutely necessary.

It seemed that I wasn't able to stop him this time…

After Duke Yuletide finished saying what he had to say, he gave a deep sigh before letting his shoulders sink like he was defeated.

He looked like he was completely defeated now, like there wasn't a single trace of hope left for him.

But the fourth prince didn't seem satisfied with this yet, so he said, "As expected, it seems like we've already taken care of all of the hideouts that there were. It seems like there's no need to do anything else."

Duke Yuletide had already looked like he was numb to everything and didn't seem like he would react, but he couldn't help reacting the moment that he heard this.

He looked up at the fourth prince in shock and disbelief.

The disbelief remained on his face for a bit before suddenly disappearing.

It seemed like he firmly believed what the fourth prince said, but that made sense when one thought about it.

At this point, what did the fourth prince gain from lying to him like this?

Duke Yuletide was already a broken man who had given up everything that he had, so there was no reason for him to lie to him.

The only reason that he would even tell him this was to throw him into further despair.

Duke Yuletide slowly looked like he had absolutely nothing left and looked like he was completely burnt out. He looked like he was about to turn into ashes at any moment with how completely burnt out he was.

The only thing left that could be done to him was…

But the fourth prince didn't go that far.

He had already accomplished what he wanted to do and he had no reason to take it any further.

So he just said to the guards, "Take them away."

The guards nodded in agreement before putting away their swords and leading the wife and daughter of the duke away. Both of them had looks of relief on their faces, but they also had looks of absolute shame.

It seemed like they had already lost everything and this fact was deeply sinking in now that they were being taken away.

The fourth prince took one last look at Duke Yuletide and said, "These are the consequences of your own actions."

Without saying anything else, he waved his hand at the guards holding Duke Yuletide and said, "Take him away."

Duke Yuletide didn't resist at all when he was being taken away.

That was just how broken he was.
