I! Cleaner!

"What's your weird question?"

The freckled prince, who was confused after hearing this, said impatiently:

"I am my father's only son, where did my sister come from? If you waste my time, you just want to ask this... um..."

When he said this, he seemed to remember something. The freckled prince hesitated for a moment, and then glanced warily in Leon's direction.

"You...did you use some method to spy on me while I was sleeping to see what I was dreaming about?"

Dream? !

After hearing the words of the Freckled Prince, Leon and Emma raised their eyebrows together, and then subconsciously glanced at each other.

"Your Highness Joshua, although the Cleanup Bureau has cleaners who can enter dreams, our Maiden Branch does not have anyone with this ability... But we cannot guarantee that there are no such people among those chaotic parties."

After exchanging opinions with Leon through their eyes, and feeling that this place could be explored more deeply, Emma immediately sat up straight and said with a somewhat serious expression:

"Your Highness Joshua, we now suspect that someone may have invaded your dream and tried to use the dream to harm and control you. To ensure your safety, please be sure to inform us of the content of the dream!"

"Um...it's just a very messy dream. It's messy and has no logic. Do I still want to tell you about it?"

"Yes, this might be very important information!"

"This... okay..."

Frightened by Emma's serious attitude, the Freckles Prince hesitated for a while, then hesitantly said:

"Just like your question, I happened to have a similar dream last night. In the dream, I was not an only child, but a sister who was fourteen or fifteen years older than me. Her name seemed to be... Wei... Wei What is the card..."

"Veronica?"

"Yes! My name is Veronica!"

After clapping his hands in surprise, the freckled prince paused slightly, then looked up at Leon who was coming next, and said with suspicion:

"How do you know the name of the person in my dream? Also, why does your voice sound a little tinny..."

"Of course we know the name!"

After secretly twisting Leon's leg to signal him not to speak randomly, senior Emma frowned slightly and replied:

"Because among those gangsters, there is a woman named Veronica, Your Highness Joshua. We guess that woman possesses an abnormal object that can enter dreams and actively invaded your dreams!"

"So that's what happened..."

The Freckles Prince suddenly realized what he said, and then he relaxed a little and said:

"That makes sense. How could I have such a strange dream? It turns out everything is controlled."

strangeness?

Emma blinked when she heard this, and then immediately asked:

"Your Highness Joshua, besides having an extra sister, is there anything else strange about this dream?"

"If you're going to be weird...this dream is weird from beginning to end!"

After frowning and remembering for a while, the Freckled Prince said with some disgust:

"Under the control of that gangster, I looked like a clown in my dream.

My father has been comparing me to her since I was a child, asking me to be on par with her in everything. My mother also emphasized to me every opportunity that she was the biggest threat to my succession to the throne, and told me not to believe the kindness she showed towards me. I'm afraid she will harm me for the throne.

And then...well...then in the dream I was pretty stupid.

Although I had a pretty good relationship with her when I was a child, and she often took her to play in the palace, but as I grew up, I liked to do the opposite of her in everything. She was simple while I was extravagant, and she was gentle to me. He was tough, and he kept causing trouble for her, and later..."

As he continued to actively recall, he seemed to remember more details. The eyes of the freckled prince gradually showed a look of pain, and then he said with an uncomfortable expression as if he was telling his own story:

"Later... the kingdom was invaded. First, warships blocked all the major deep-water ports, and then a quarter of the main roads were blown off. More than half of the remaining ones were occupied, and half of the kingdom was occupied. Traffic is almost completely cut off, and airships dropping explosives can be seen overhead every day.

As for the armies under the control of those losers in the military department, they were completely vulnerable to the enemy and almost collapsed at the first touch. Only the few new armies created by my sister and the Minister of Defense still had some resistance.

But regardless of the number of people or weapons, they were far inferior to each other. Although they relied on the command of Old Hill to repel several attacks from the opposite side and stabilize the situation, I...my mother and some people from the Ministry of Finance People started to hold them back..."

After recalling his clown-like behavior in the dream, the freckled prince couldn't say any more. Then he slammed the table and said with fire in his eyes:

"Anyway, I didn't do anything good!

Then the new army couldn't pay, and the ammunition and weapons couldn't be supplied. Although it was sustained by the prestige of my sister, it couldn't hold on anymore, and most of them were trapped in Merino County.

Then the royal capital was captured, and there were people fleeing everywhere. My mother and I got mixed up with people from the Ministry of Finance and were dispersed without running out. Then...then my sister came back. "

When he said this, the Freckles Prince paused slightly, and then said with complicated eyes:

"At that time, neither my father, mother, nor uncle came to see me, but she was the only one who led people to fight out of the siege of Merino County, re-entered the royal capital, and changed me from the sewers of the old city. Found it in the air raid shelter.

I...I asked her why she came, and she said she didn't want to come either, but I still have to live. My father only has two children. I can't just die. I have to live just in case. "

"I didn't understand what she meant at the time, but later my father died of illness on the way to escape, and she was caught and executed because of her failure in resistance. After her death, the army was dispersed, and those who did not want the kingdom to be completely annexed , began to move closer to me, saying that I was the last robin of the royal family.

But I... the me in the dream was very useless, and I didn't have the ability to resist like she did. I could only retreat with my people, and by completely surrendering to other kingdoms and signing many unreasonably harsh treaties, I could barely survive. A small area of ​​less than three counties.

And in order not to be completely wiped out, I have to hand over a large amount of precious minerals every year, and nearly 40% of the fiscal revenue, which is almost the same as a large county in other kingdoms, but even if I work hard every day Working hard, but things are getting worse..."

As if he felt the same thing, after telling his other self's "experience" with a gloomy expression, the freckled prince said with a dazed look:

"Just when I was watching everything begin to develop towards the worst outcome, and the entire kingdom was impoverished and overwhelmed, and would soon cease to exist completely, an old man with crooked and narrow eyes and a naturally smiling face asked me if I wanted to Change all that.

Then he opened a door for me and told me that if I walked in, I could save my regrets, but at the cost, I would lose everything. In the dream, I didn’t know whether I was completely desperate or felt that I had nothing to lose. I walked right in..."

"..."

"Then what?"

After waiting for a while without waiting for the follow-up, Emma, ​​who was a little entranced, couldn't help but ask:

"What happened to you in the dream after you entered the door?"

"after?"

The freckled prince blinked and said in a daze:

"No more after that. I woke up at dawn."
