Chapter 43
"… So it's like this, huh? How strange, though . Even if Al is an idiot, the head of the Riea family would not dare to kill a member of the imperial family . " I muttered to myself while organizing the information I got from the black-clothed man's mind .
Soul-scanning techniques are one of the best ways to get information . Of course, most soul-scanning techniques are very rough and hard to utilize, but I don't have that problem . I can get all the information I want, and If I want, I can use it without causing pain to the victim .

Of course, I was not so considerate of the black-clothed man . His soul shattered after going through my soul-scanning .
From the black-clothed man's memory, I learned that who sent the assassins was Al, the eldest son of the Riea family . We had a conflict two days ago in the auction house, but I did not think he would send assassins after my life .
After all, I'm still a prince . If I'm killed in the capital, then the emperor will be forced to find and punish the responsible without caring about their identity . If something like the death of a prince is not handled well, then it can result in the emperor's authority decreasing, or in the worst case, an ambitious noble rebelling .
In other words, although Al ordered my death, his father is probably in the dark about it .
However, I smell something fishy going on .
The faces of various people flashed through my mind and my eyes turned ice-cold . I don't like being used as a chess piece .
While I was analyzing the information I got, Daisy approached me .
"… Your highness?" She called timidly, with a worried expression .
I stopped my thoughts momentarily and looked at her . "Daisy, are you alright?" I asked gently .
Daisy looked at me with teary eyes . She then looked at the dismembered bodies around me and paled . "I-I'm alright . "
I wrinkled my brows and looked around before heaving a sigh . The surroundings were filled with blood, bodies, and cut limbs . It was like hell on earth, and even if Daisy would not mind one or two deaths, she was already pretty strong for not vomiting after seeing such a bloody scene .
It looks like I was unable to control my killing intentions completely, huh . I could have killed them much more cleanly, but my desire for blood exploded after having a serious fight in so long .
Well, after 702 reincarnations, I don't care about this little bit of blood, but it's obvious that my bloody killing methods scared Daisy a little .
"Y-Your h-highness, y-you killed them a-all…" Daisy stuttered nervously .
"I did . " I smiled wryly . "I'm sorry if I frightened you . I must have looked scary . "
"N-No!" Daisy shook her head frantically . "Y-Your highness is not scary . I-I'm just a bit surprised . " She then put on a brave face and looked right into my eyes . "Y-Your highness is very kind, I never would fear you!"
My lips curved up when I heard it . I could not help but kiss Daisy's lips briefly before patting her head .
"Thanks . "
Daisy just blushed and lowered her head .
I suppressed my desire of making out with Daisy here (well, this was not a good place with all the blood and bodies) and looked again at the scene I caused before heaving a tired sigh . "This is a bit troublesome though . "
