Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Chapter 698 The one who snuck along

"Surprise…"

That was what this person said in an awkward voice when he took off his cloak.

Seeing him standing there in front of , I couldn't help looking at him with a very strange look before saying, "You have to go back."

"Eh? It's already too late for that." This person said back to .

"Don't give that. What will happen if the kingdom collapses while you're gone?" I said in an agitated voice.

This wasn't an exaggeration, this was a fact since the person who was standing in front of was the fourth prince.

I don't know why he would do sothing like this, he had actually snuck along with our group.

It was just a good thing that I found him before we actually left the kingdom or else it definitely would have been troubleso. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that there were many things that couldn't run in this kingdom without the fourth prince.

There were many things that the king had delegated to the fourth prince, just like how he had delegated things to . However, the things that he entrusted the fourth prince with were vital things that had to be done to ensure that the kingdom ran properly.

If these weren't done, it would only be a matter of ti before the kingdom collapsed.

So before that happened, we had to send the fourth prince back.

"Eh?" The fourth prince said again before saying, "It won't collapse just because I'm not there."

I shook my head and said with a sigh, "It will, that's how important you are to the kingdom."

The fourth prince revealed an embarrassed look when he heard this which made feel very strange. It wasn't a good kind of strange, it was a bad kind of strange like the cells of my body were rejecting this very intensely…

After acting this way for a bit, the fourth prince calmly said, "No, it really won't since I didn't leave without leaving soone behind to take over for ."

I was surprised to hear this since I never heard of anyone that could replace the fourth prince.

The fourth prince said with a smile, "I have a body double that I've been preparing for so ti now. Of course, this is a secret, so you can't tell anyone about this."

I looked at him with a strange look, as if I couldn't believe that he would tell sothing like this that easily.

The fourth prince just had a smile on his face as he continued to say, "He can take care of business for and people won't even realize that I'm gone. But it's not as if this is a permanent solution since he is just a replacent. As long as I'm not gone for more than half a year, it should be fine."

Half a year, that was how long the fourth prince had prepared for his own disappearance.

As expected of a man who was supposed to be the main villain of the noble arc, it was as if he had already planned everything.

But there was sothing else that I couldn't help thinking about.

If he had a body double, then did that an that he might have actually survived in the ga?

Could it be that the fourth prince that had been killed in the ga was nothing more than a body double?

No, he wouldn't do sothing like that.

After spending quite a bit of ti with the fourth prince, I felt that I had a good grasp of his personality.

I knew that he wasn't soone that would abandon his people like that just to escape on his own. Even if he was forced to do it by his subordinates, he would co back in the end to save them.

So the fourth prince should have died in the ga…

The fourth prince could see that there was a strange look on my face as I looked at him, so he asked, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at like that?"

I realized what I was doing, so I shook my head and said, "It's nothing, don't worry about it."

The fourth prince raised a brow as if he was suspicious of , but he didn't say anything else.

I knew that it would be impossible for to bring him back now without causing a commotion, so there really wasn't a way for to reject him.

Not to ntion, I found out that he actually brought a trump card.

The king had actually written an order for to bring the fourth prince along.

He stated that he was worried, which was why he wanted the fourth prince to co with just in case anything happened.

These two had colluded behind my back to make bring the fourth prince along…

I had no idea what they were thinking, but they had to have their reason for doing this.

But there was still sothing that I had to comnt on.

"How are you planning on following ? You could be considered quite the famous person and easily recognized, so wouldn't they imdiately recognize you if you ca with ?"

Even if this ga was set in the middle ages, there were things like magic that could project images.

Even without magic, there were still those that could draw quite well, so images were quite easily sent around. Though that was mainly because of this world's basis being from one of those gas.

It was a way to easily collect CGs…

So the fourth prince's face was quite well known since he was an important character.

Even without that, he would be known by the other royals and nobles since they would have t him before.

So it wasn't as if he could just follow into the other kingdoms like this.

The fourth prince revealed a smile as he said, "You don't have to worry about that, I have my ways."

I raised a brow in doubt, but I just waited to see what he would do.
