Many students were eager to attend the event after it was announced in the school bulletin of the Academy’s Page. It is mandatory for senior students, however, because the outcome of this event will have an impact on their future. The better their performance in this event, the more opportunities they will have. There were many Troops in the Imperium’s Military, and each of its leaders was in a class of their own.

The most well-known were the Royal Brigade, led by the Main Palace, and the Pixie Tower, led by the second most powerful Mediator, Yvonne von Litche. The majority of the members of this tower are Mediators, who are the most powerful Medical troops in the military. Unfortunately, none of them are capable of curing the Grand Marshal. Finally, there is the Black Dragon Troop, which is led by the Grand Marshal himself.

The only group that accepts warriors and mediators with A-rank or higher strength. They’ve never accepted anyone with a grade lower than A. This is the military’s most powerful and ruthless unit, as they only obey the Grand Marshal’s orders and no one else’s. Despite the fact that the leader of the Black Dragon Troops is infamous for being insane, the benefits provided by this group are far greater than those provided by the other troops, and the death toll from this troop during the war is the lowest. It demonstrates how capable the leader was. Of course, many warriors covet this troop because it can provide them with glory, wealth, and fame.

In the school corridors…

There is almost constant murmuring between students. Their voices are filled with excitement, worry, and some trepidation as they discuss the upcoming Hunting Zerg Event at the end of the month.

Students and groups came to register. After all, it is preferable to register ahead of time. The scene of the youngest prince dragging his lazy friend, Yara von Chrysalis, followed by a few of his subordinates arrived unexpectedly to register for the event. Everyone was staring at them because the student being dragged by Jace Green was hugging a flower pot. It’s a black rose that Yara has recently planted.

Jace Green said, “Yara, you promised to join my group during the Hunting Event, you can’t back down~”

“But Caesar said there is no need for me to join this event. My name is already registered.”

Yara von Chrysalis retorted, as his name was already in the Black Dragon Troop record. After learning about his plants becoming Sentient and even helping to cure the contamination in their minds, the Military had placed him directly under the protection of the Grand Marshal. After only a few days in the Grand Duke’s Palace, Caesar Mitchell von Imperlian was well-known. He even saved a lot of troop members, and they all regarded him as the Grand Marshal.

Jace Green said, “Then just accompany throughout the competition. There is no need to do anything unless we all could no longer fight. We are missing one to sign for a group. Help me please, Yara~”

Sigh~

“I truly won’t move. You said that.” Yara von Chrysalis said. ｏｖ𝚕．ｃｏ𝚖

Jace Green von Imperlian said with a huge grin, “I promise~”

“For some reason, I’m feeling bad with that smile of yours,” Yara mumbled, their team members couldn’t help but nod their heads in agreement.

Jace Green said, “You are just imagining things~”

“I don’t think so. Sigh~ whatever. Maybe I can find new plants or flowers there.” Yara von Chrysalis said.

Jace Green von Imperlian and Yara von Chrysalis registered as a group with three other of the youngest prince’s subordinates. One of the other three is a Mediator, and the other two, like the youngest prince, are Adjudicators. Jace Green von Imperlian, the youngest prince of the Imperlian Royal Family, no longer concealed the fact that he is an Adjudicator, but he continued to attend some classes in the Ordinary Department. He can still run into Yara at the Agriculture-Farming and Potion-Making Classes.

“Okay, we’re registered. Come I’ll treat you guys to lunch!” The youngest prince said.

While Jace Green continued to drag his friend Yara around, his subordinates were delighted. The Old Butler from the Grand Duke’s Palace stopped them this time, bowing his head in front of Jace Green von Imperlian and Yara von Chrysalis. His reason for bowing before Jace Green is because of his bloodline, whereas Yara’s reason is respect for a master.

The Old Butler said, “This old man greets His Highness Jace and Young Lord Yara. The Grand Duke had prepared to host a lunch and invited the group to join him for a meal.”

Jace Green von Imperlian wrinkled his brow. He was well aware that his Imperial Uncle was unconcerned about him. However, his uncle is aware that he will be dining with Yara and chooses to invite him on the surface. In reality, his Imperial Uncle was pleading with him to let Yara go home so he could eat lunch with him rather than his youngest nephew.

Meanwhile, Jace Green von Imperlian’s subordinates were trembling slightly. They had heard the rumors about the Grand Marshal’s insanity, and they were terrified not only because of these rumors, but also because of the man’s great standing as a member of the Royal Family.

“Y-Your Highness, my stomach suddenly hurts so much and this subordinate might not be able to join your grace for a meal.”

“But we haven’t eaten anything all morning yet? How can your stomach hurt now?” Jace Green wondered.

“I just remembered. Your Highness, my wife is about to give birth. I need help at home!”

“What wife!? You don’t even have a lover! Who the hell is going to give birth!?” Jace Green retorted.

“Your Highness, I…”

“What is it now!?”

THUD!

Jace Green von Imperlian turned to his last subordinate with a dark face and saw him faint with foam coming out of his mouth. No one knows whether he is faking it or not, but it appears genuine, and he can only order his other subordinates to transport the man to the infirmary.

The youngest prince commanded, “Send him to the infirmary or hospital! How can he suddenly faint like that!”

The other two, a man with a stomach ache and his pregnant wife, immediately carried their fallen comrade and fled. They didn’t come to the Grand Duke’s Palace to die, er, eat. So they took advantage of the situation and fled as far as they could.

Jace Green von Imperlian said, “What is wrong with them? Anyway, I’m famished. Let’s go and…”

“Your Highness Jace, actually the Lord only invited the Young Lord so… I’m afraid you will have to eat alone for lunch.” The Old Butler said with a friendly smile yet the youngest prince knew that it was a business smile that was asking him not to come with them upon the orders of his Imperial Uncle.

Jace Green von Imperlian couldn’t believe what he just heard and was rendered speechless.

The Old Butler knew that the prince would not go after hearing his words. He escorted his Young Lord on the way, saying, “Young Lord, this way, please. The Lord is waiting in the car.”

“Then let’s go. It is not good to keep Caesar waiting. Jace, see you tomorrow.” Yara von Chrysalis said.

“Sigh~ okay. The Imperial Uncle is truly selfish. He’s monopolizing Yara’s time so much. I’m going to complain to the Imperial Father!” Jace Green also left, seeing that he couldn’t eat lunch with his friend.

At the Mediator Department’s Field Class…

The Adjudicator and Mediator departments met today to ensure the students were ready for the Event. Those in registered groups were told to congregate, and those going solo were given tasks to complete on their own. The group led by the second prince received the most attention; after all, he was accompanied by his fiance, Silvan von Rosegard, who is also a newly awakened Mediator. He is the youngest of the awakened, surprising both the school and the Royal Family.

Christopher Klein von Imperlian was coaxing his fiancee, who had suddenly turned cold towards him. He knew it had to do with their previous life, when he had chosen the throne over his beloved. This was also his greatest regret and his most serious problem in life. After all, Silvan von Rosegard was also reborn, and they both have memories of their previous lives.

So he wasn’t surprised to learn that Silvan had awakened as a Mediator. Because he had hoped for this to happen for a long time and was not hindered by anyone after Megan Shelley separated himself from the Rosegard Clan. Furthermore, Megan Shelley barely left the laboratory where he was working after learning about potions and researching elements in this world.

Christopher Klein von Imperlian said to his fiance who was ignoring them, “Silvie, don’t ignore me, please. I’ve worked hard to get a decree from the Imperial Father for our engagement. I actually miss you so much.” He suddenly hugged Silvan which caught the latter off guard.

Silvan von Rosegard had always preferred soft foods to hard foods. The warmth that spreads through the arms of the second prince almost reaches his heart. He had been pining for this person since learning of his death. In his heart, he was guilty. He pushed him away with the intention of not dragging him into the dangers of the throne battle and returning to pick him up after he won the crown.

But who would have guessed Silvan’s cousin would betray him and even kill him? Silvan von Rosegard died tragically in his final life. Following the execution of his elder brother for the crime of treason. His father died of mania and even his wife in process.

After his clan had fallen and been crippled for attempting to save his parents, Megan Shelley, his only hope, pushed him off the cliff. Moreover, he didn’t die from the fall, as most people would have done in his place, thanks to his powerful healing abilities, which improved while he was on the verge of death. He didn’t die, but what followed was worse than hell.

That was the first time Silvan von Rosegard thought death would be more comfortable than living. Just as he is about to die, his ability mutates, and he can not only heal anyone’s mental disabilities, but he can also regenerate his own body. The sensation of your broken bones healing, as well as the growth of his veins, muscles, and flesh, was too itchy and painful. Worse, the wild beast and Zerg in that forest had devoured him alive.

He was like an endless piece of meat that could grow more as they ate because of his auto-body regeneration. Silvan von Rosegard chose to implode himself only when he could no longer hold on. Silvan’s tragic first life ended there.

Silvan von Rosegard had frozen when he was suddenly hugged. He hadn’t expected such a sweet and clingy second prince. Before a short hug, they would only hold each other’s hands. This is not an affectionate hug. Instead, the sudden warmth that enveloped him from all sides made Silvan uneasy.

He couldn’t be held but pushed Christopher Klein away, “I… Please don’t do such a thing in public, Your Highness. Remember your bloodline.” Silvan von Rosegard said politely but his face was cold and his eyes were flashing with warning.

The Second Prince just smiled and said, “I am no longer an heir to the throne. So all of my time will be yours in the end. With the decree in my hand, you can only marry me and no one else.” He approached the second of Rosegard fearless once again hugging him regardless of his struggles and even whispered to his ears, ‘Also don’t expect my Imperial Uncle to help you with your healing ability, I do not think he needs it anymore~’

Silvan von Rosegard was caught off guard by these words and forgot to struggle, “What do you mean?!”
