Prologue Tea Fairy
Sit in Shimaki's car and drive from the remote countryside to the bustling city. The surrounding high-rise buildings are becoming denser, the streets are becoming more crowded, and the moonlight is once again obscured by clouds, replaced by the bright lights of the modern city. Is this feeling affectionate or disgusting......
It was a long enough ride to give me a lot of time to think, and most of the time I prefer to empty my mind, but my brain is always busy. Trivial clues and fragments are pieced together and sorted out in the mind until they are complete and flawless. Even if you don't think about it, you can understand what others have spent a lot of effort to understand.
Maybe it's talent, something that people dream of, but to me, it's more like an innate curse.
Since I was sensible, I have known that I am different from other princes, and it is obvious that my blood unity has been questioned by my father, and my mother has been neglected because of this.
But later, when I was about six years old, the question of my ancestry was finally verified, in fact, it was not a complicated medical test, but when it happened to the royal family, it became a sensitive political issue, and it was delayed again and again.
The final result of the test was that the reason why my hair was blue was not because of my mother's infidelity, but because of a genetic mutation, also known as a mutant.
I thought at the time that my father had mixed feelings when he heard the news, and although I was not yet seven years old at the time, I was not wrong in this conclusion.
My mother has always been out of step with the other princesses and queens, she doesn't have a huge family behind her, and before I was born, she didn't even have a blood relative in the world. A woman from a civilian background, helpless in the deep palace, knows her suffering. I thought that after giving birth to a son, I could get more attention from my father and a certain amount of respect from others, but I didn't expect this to be the beginning of another nightmare.
I think from my father's point of view, and if I were me, I might be more willing to get bad news. If I hadn't been his biological son, he could have justifiably executed our mother and son and solved many problems once and for all.
But when my lineage was confirmed, my father would be embarrassed, because he owed my mother, and he felt guilty. And because of my talent, I probably do better than his other sons, my brothers.
As a prince who has no political capital and has been known as a wild seed since birth, talent is a threat to himself.
I don't know what my mother thinks, but shortly after my ancestry was verified, she committed suicide by poisoning, maybe she loved her father, and knew that her death would share the man's worries, and that was the only thing she could do, or maybe she thought I was safe, and no one dared to say anything to me anymore, and no one dared to harm a real prince.
It didn't take me much time to get out of my grief, maybe it was my "cleverness" that made me know how to adjust my emotions effectively.
While the other princes were desperate to begin their enlightenment, I worked day and night to learn everything I could learn, delve into my superpowers, and devote all my energy and attention to these two things, so as to forget the grief of losing my mother.
At the age of twelve, I left the palace and joined HighestLaws, and was shocked. But my father was very supportive of me, and he understood that there was no place for me to stay in Tiandu. People like me, stay away so that my brothers don't feel threatened, and in this way, it's good for everyone.
At first, I was just looking for a place to display my talents, but then the development was beyond my expectations.
There are a lot of villains in this world, but there are very few smart people among them, and the intricate events that seem to others are clear to me, and gradually, I have a certain prestige in HL, and people no longer think that I am a prince who needs the protection of my peers to play tickets in the organization. The upper echelons began to value my opinions, entrusted me with important responsibilities, and transferred me from a vacant position to a position of doing practical things.
Perhaps, this feeling of being "needed" is what I was looking for when I left Tiandu.
More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, the years have been extraordinarily tolerant to me, and I am aging at a slower rate than the average person, and now I still look like a student who has just entered high school. I had roughly guessed that if I had died, I would have been more than 240 years old, and I don't know what the world would be like at that time. My friends no longer call me His Highness Krauser Wittstock, they all call me the Tea Fairy, which is the code name for one of the operations I have participated in, and they have used it at some point, probably because tea is the only hobby I have ever shown in front of people.
If there is anything else in this world that makes me haunted, it is that I have not been able to arrest Tianyi so far, and I have not even met him in person.
The first time I came into contact with his crimes was five years ago, when I first experienced true horror. It's not a fear of the tangible, it's not terrible, it's going to destroy your body at most, just like the results of his crimes, which are nothing more than that in the eyes of the average policeman. But if they had seen as much as I did, and if they could see how horrific the whole course of events had been when the clues were connected, they would have felt the same admiration and disgust as I did......
Before you know it, you're almost at your destination. That survivor...... Ikeda, a high school student, actually survived Tianyi's game, and as far as I know about Tianyi, this Ikeda will definitely not be alive because of his great mercy or negligence, and there is a chance that more than 90% of the time, he deliberately left his mouth alive...... Coupled with that previous phone call, it meant that it was the beginning of a whole new game, a game between him and me.
