”

Her steps came to a standstill.

“The master of the underworld?”

“It’s called that too.”

“Oh, my God.”

It was more than she thought.
Vivian kept her mouth shut with only one exclamation.

Lawlessness, literally an area where the laws of the Empire are not accepted.
And being the master of the underworld who ruled it, it was so high that it was hard to imagine.
No, maybe it’s right to say that it’s far too low.

If the peak of light was the emperor who ruled the empire, the peak of darkness was the master of the underworld.
It was only a rumor, but there was a saying that he ruled the underworld and held the palace and shook it.

No matter how widely rumored that Grand Duke was a nightmare, it was a completely different matter from being the master of the underworld.
Even if it was a nameless Grand Duke, the Imperial family was the Imperial Family.
How can the Imperial family, who symbolizes the blood of God and the light, claim to be the dark?

That’s why none of the Empire’s people could relate the Black Duke to the Underworld.
It was more persuasive to say that the rumor that he was a crazy murder.

“When the hell did it start?”

“It’s not been more than a decade since I’ve killed a sublet owner.
I’ve been doing similar things for a long time, so I just got a superficial position.”

Kill, you killed him.

“You did kill him, so you’d be there in his position.”

The underworld owner couldn’t have followed the hereditary system.
It was the world of beasts that were weakly carnivorous.
The world of biting if you don’t bite.
Vivian, who had never been involved in that world before, knew that much.

Aiden is the owner of the lawless land.
The one whose hobby is reading books is the owner of the lawless zone?

Vivian nodded slowly.
Suddenly, her body creaked as if she were under-greased.

“But there were things that were going on before that.”

“Uh, what’s going on?”

Aden smiled bitterly at the apparently frightened look.

“He was before His Majesty was crowned, even before he became an adult.
He was young.”

Vivian nodded, recalling the image of the boy he saw at the ceremony.

“He was the only one who was treated in the red because I was treated like a bum and drove all sorts of rumors, but that didn’t mean he had no enemies.
It’s hard for a young emperor to build an empire with his own strength, Vivian.
Especially those who have never experienced such failure as His Majesty.
I stood in the back and helped him to not let his self-esteem break down in shock.”

Lead them not to go astray, advise them to make more advantageous choices, and deal with those who show disquieting movements.
