The Greatest Extra Chapter 2.2 The fifth prince of the fallen empire (2)

* * *

---

Although Raymond was one of the few villains in the first volume, he had very little involvement in the main story, so there was little parts in the novel about him. 

He didn’t know that he wouldn’t be talented.

‘I’m more of an extra, now.’

A character that passes by briefly. After provoking the main character, he was brutally broken and left the scene in a lonely way, and lost his life in the massacre due to the Event that Exterminated the Imperial Family members.

‘And that day, the whole Pilius family would be wiped out.’

His thoughts did not last long. 

This is because it was interrupted by sharp blade fragments sound in front of his feet.

The Imperial knights who saw it stepped forward and made a fuss.

“Fifth Prince, Your Highness! You have to back off!”

“It’s dangerous here.”

But Raymond shook his head and opened his mouth.

“I’m not going anywhere.”

It can also be seen they he wa very stubborn.

“The lineage of the House of Pilius cannot escape from here.”

But today was different.

There’s no fool in this place right now. 

There was only the Fifth Prince who inherited the blood of the Pilius.

“Fifth Prince!”

“We will risk our lives to protect you!”

The Imperial knights made a fuss again.

Whether or not, Raymond left. He did not take his eyes off the two people in front of him.

Even if he could not follow the afterimage, his eyes was still following them.

He thought that he could gain something even though he is only watching.

“That’s not what rumors say.”

Feeling Raymond’s eye contact, the first attack of the Imperial Guard happened.

‘I can’t let him down.’

Raymond’s eyes shone sharply before the Imperial Guard. 

The Imperial Guard recovered his power by raising his spirits.

 Only then did Assassin realize that he had underestimated the Imperial Guard’s power.

“Oh, my….”

When the assassin, who realized his mistake, tried to step back, the sword wielded by the Captain was nearing him.

“Is this an Imperial Guard…?”

It was clearly visible to Raymond’s eyes.

 Blood spurts throughout the assassin’s body.

He collapsed like a puppet with a broken string.

“Fifth Prince, I’ll take you to a safe place.”

Raymond smiled as he looked down slightly at the Captain.

It is said to have fallen, but it is still an Empire after all.

No one expected that the defense of the Imperial palace, which is considered the safest in the Imperial City, would be temporarily breached.

The invaders’ goal was, of course, the Emperor.

More than 30 assassins attacked the Emperor, who was moving to the dinner hall for breakfast, but the result was a total annihilation for the attackers.

Although the palace’s defense was said to have been breached, there were still countless shields and Imperial Knights next to the Emperor.

It was an attack that shouldn’t be successful in the first place.

The leaders of the Empire also judged it not as an attack to kill the Emperor, but as a powerful reconnaissance to confirm about the defense system.

“Report the damage to the palace in detail.”

The present Emperor, Ronald, was old and sick, but his voice still contained the dignity of a monarch.

The Imperial Guard, who was on one knee, raised his head slightly and reported the damage.

“Hmm.”

Ronald’s expression was relieved. He was relieved that the damage was not as serious as he thought.

The Imperial Guard was also a little relieved at the sight and spoke again to continue the report.

“……and the Fifth Prince was also attacked.”

“The Fifth Prince was in the Imperial Palace?”

“Yes, he was.”

The Emperor, who was keeping his calm earlier, was shaken.

“I think he has accepted the Emperor’s invitation for breakfast.”

“Oh….”

The Emperor, Ronald, sent breakfast invitations to the Fifth Prince, Raymond, every morning. 

It lasted for five years, but Raymond had not even accepted entering the palace.

‘Why did he have to accept this morning’s invitation?’

“Raymond….”

Slight tremor came from the voice of the emperor, who quietly uttered the name of the Fifth Prince.

“Where is the Fifth Prince now?”
