Atracaeca Kingdom.

Inside a small house, there was a man being restrained by giant metal balls in his legs. Just to move around, he had to drag his feet. In fact, there were already big calluses on his ankles due to him dragging the metal balls around.

While he was bringing his plate to the table, he suddenly heard a knock from the outside.

"Tsk." The guy clicked his tongue and dragged his feet again to the front. But when he opened his door, the one who visited him this time was actually the same man who caused all this. "You… Noel Ardagan…"

"It's been a while, Prince Ramuer." Noel smiled calmly. Yes, the person in front of him was actually the second prince of the Atracaeca Kingdom, who was punished after extorting Noel.

"What are you doing here?" Ramuer gritted his teeth, glaring at Noel. While he was angry, he wasn't foolish enough to actually charge toward Noel.

"It might not be appropriate to talk here." Noel glanced to the inside, implying that it was better to talk inside so as to avoid any suspicion.

Although he didn't like the fact that Noel entered this small house, Ramuer couldn't reject him. "Suit yourself."

Noel went in. After Ramuer closed the door, Noel couldn't help but say, "How is your life here? I guess it can be hard since there's no more servants to do all the jobs."

"Shut up. Just say the reason you're here." Ramuer's eyes were filled with hostility.

Noel paused for a moment before asking, "Would you like to restore your identity as a prince and start all over again?"

Ramuer frowned. "Restore? What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about cooperation."

"Cooperation? You? This must be a trap. You're just planning to execute me, aren't you?"

"I'm sincere." Noel shook his head. "If you do me a favor, your prince status will be restored. Of course, if you bare your fangs against the Ardagan family again, I won't hesitate to kill you at that time."

Ramuer squinted his eyes, not finding any lies in his expression. "Why me?"

"Because your identity is perfect. Someone who is hostile to me will definitely not be considered a part of my plan." Noel smirked.

Ramuer understood what he was talking about. It seemed that Noel planned to do something big in secret. If he asked anyone else, there was a high chance that they would be found out by the spies.

However, if he was the one doing it, no one would think he was working for him. Besides, he was already a perfect person. While his strength wasn't too high, he could still fight. He was also a good politician and could negotiate.

Ramuer asked, "What's in it for me? Just restoring my status?"

"Do you think it's not worth it?" Noel smirked. Restoring his status as a prince allowed him to return to the starting point. In addition, if he cooperated with Noel this time, he could somehow negotiate with him for his assistance in the future.

While he needed to rebuild his force again, he might still be able to succeed his father's seat.

And what Noel and Ramuer needed was the same. All eyes had already ignored Ramuer, so no one would see him when he moved in secret.

"What do you want?"

"I'd like you to procure an item for me in large quantities." Noel smiled while handing him a piece of paper containing information about the item as well as all related information.

When Ramuer saw it, he finally understood why Noel wanted his help. He said, "Suppose I were to refuse?"

"Nothing happens."

"I can sell out this information to people who would like to know about your plan."

"While I need it, I'm not that desperate. The item is precious to me, but it doesn't mean that I can't do anything without it." Noel shook his head.

Ramuer bit his lips. He still hated Noel, but it didn't change the fact that the offer tempted him.

Still, there was one problem. "How are you planning to reinstate my status? Do you think my father will agree?"

Noel smiled. "Don't worry about it. I've talked to your father, and he lets you choose your own path from now on. But I need to remind you again, point your sword at me, I'll remove you even if I have to fight the entire Atracaeca Kingdom."

Ramuer looked surprised at first, but soon contemplated it with a solemn expression. After a few minutes, Ramuer said, "Alright. I'll handle this."

…

Meanwhile, the Grand Protector couldn't help but look at the agreement letter he had just signed.

He kept remembering the conversation that took place not long ago.

The Grand Protector sat down in his office after a long meeting in his palace. However, even though there was no more work he had to do, he still walked into his office. He even raised his guard once he sat down.

"Come in. I know that you've been waiting to speak to me. Who are you?" The Grand Protector asked.

Noel suddenly appeared in his room. "I believe it's the first time we meet, Grand Protector. My name is Noel Ardagan."

"So you are…" The Grand Protector frowned. He knew about Noel, but he had never seen his portrait. "To think that the genius of the Muivell Kingdom has become a spirit transcendence. Should I congratulate you or eliminate you before you become too big for me to handle?"

"Hahaha. I believe we should go with the first scenario. I have no intention to fight against the Atracaeca Kingdom."

"Who knows if that will be the case?"

Noel smiled. "In that case, allow me to prove that."

"Prove? How?"

"I'm willing to give an opportunity to the second prince. With your permission and my agreement, it should be enough for him to regain his status as a prince, right?"

"Huh?" The Grand Protector looked shocked, not expecting such a deal. He thought that if Noel wanted to propose something, it would just be a business deal. "You're trying to restore the second prince's status to remove all the grudges we have?"

Even though they were cooperating, the Grand Protector was still the second prince's father. He obviously didn't like the fact that he had to imprison his own son because of Noel. If he didn't care about the nation's interests, he would have come directly for Noel's life.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Indeed." Noel nodded. By reinstating Ramuer's status, the fact that he had to start all over again could be seen as a punishment for his mistake. And with this punishment, there was no way Ramuer would make the same mistake. If he did, he would be so disappointed.

The Grand Protector closed his eyes. "You're not trying to support him, are you?"

"I, too, know what I can do and how the balance will collapse if I support someone. Hence, I can guarantee that everything will depend on his effort. I have no intention of meddling with the Atracaeca Kingdom's politics." Noel looked the Grand Protector in the eyes.

The Grand Protector sighed. "What do you want from me?"

"Just your permission. Maybe a little bit of help since he has nothing right now."

"Alright. However, we have to write down the agreement. If you lie to me, I will not hesitate to rally the entire force of my kingdom on you."

"Absolutely." Noel nodded in agreement.

They immediately wrote down the contract that both parties signed. Looking at the copy of the contract, the Grand Protector couldn't help but say, "It seems that the situation is much more dangerous than it seems. To think that I would see a Spirit Transcendence having no choice but to hide that fact… What is currently going on in the Muivell Kingdom?"
