Chapter 174  Prince Giovanni’s Anger

Inside a private room in one of the most popular restaurants in the capital, the second prince was having a meal with Lucas.

The two sat opposite each other, eating and enjoying their food.

Lucas took a cloth from his inner pocket to wipe off the grease on his lips.

He then looked at the second prince who was still busy with his food and spoke calmly. "Your Highness, you can speak freely with me. I know you didn't just invite me for a meal."

Prince Giovanni put down the cutlery.

"One moment." He uttered. He then wiped off the oil stains on his mouth with a white cloth with golden embroidery.

After cleaning himself, he cleared his throat and spoke. "Lord Lucas, I have always admired your commitment to defending the northern borders of Astania…"

The prince spoke a long paragraph of flattery and praise, but this only made Lucas annoyed.

If he wasn't of imperial bloodline, he would have left without saying a word.

"…The North is always subjected to attacks so there is a high demand for equipment and weapons. The weather there is also terrible so only a small percentage of the crops can survive. I am really saddened by the rough conditions that our northern residents have to experience all year round so I thought of sending some supplies in hopes that it would somehow alleviate the burden on the northern lords." Prince Giovanni spoke with a heavy sigh.

If it was someone else, they might be fooled by his generosity, but Lucas was already aware of what kind of person the second prince was.

He was a tyrant who oppressed the poor and he was the kind of man who wouldn't hesitate to betray someone all for the sake of fulfilling his ambitions!

"That will be great, Your Highness, but I think we should discuss this with all the northern lords present. I am but one of the many lords in the North. I do not represent all of them." Replied Lucas while shaking his head.
