Otoko Game: Male protagonists, I’m just a scumbag

"Why isn't he awake yet?!"

An angry voice was heard in the room, and King Ryan glared at the palace doctor and asked.

The palace doctor saluted with horror:

"Your Majesty, the Second Prince's injury is not serious. It is probably..." The palace doctor paused, glanced at Crown Prince Vao, and finally said:

"It's probably because of the pain caused by the severed finger that he can't wake up for a while."

"Hmm?" King Ryan wanted to stare at Vao Ryan, as if asking him why he did this, but he didn't mean to blame him.

Instead, seeing the slap he gave him on the face, his expression softened a little.

Queen Kalida held her head high, her graceful neckline visible, and her docile appearance made people feel happy. He pretended to blame Wao:

"Wao, how could you accidentally do such a thing...?"

Haha, he actually called such a thing an accident.

Vao Ryan let the doctor apply the swelling-reducing medicine on his face. He gritted his teeth and was very unconvinced, but he knew he couldn't show it too much:

"Mother, I went there originally wanting to release him, but he mocked me and accidentally..."

This was really a careless thing.

King Ryan said nothing. He glanced at El Ryan lying on the bed and ordered the servant beside him:

"Go wake him up for me."

"Yes." The servant responded respectfully and prepared to go up and wake Al up.

But at this time the person on the bed moved. Al opened his eyes and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar ceiling. This was the room where he slept when his mother was there.

I had wanted to come back so many times but couldn't, and now I'm lying in this bed because of something like this.

He seemed to have just dreamed about his childhood again, that person...

He propped himself up and sat up, without turning his head, just glancing at the side with his eyes tilted.

The servant was startled by his sudden rise and stopped moving quickly.

Al stroked his forehead and massaged his aching head, and finally stretched out the hand with the broken little finger to take a look. It was wrapped in emergency medicine.

When King Ryan saw that he had woken up, he immediately walked up to him without giving him time to react and began to question him about the incident:

"Is what you said true?"

El's golden hair obscured his profile, making it impossible to tell what his expression was. He was just laughing at King Ryan in his heart.

He wanted to get that thing without giving him any benefits. Why didn't he realize that he was so stupid before?

But he didn't care now. He turned around and stood up from the bed.

He was still wearing the same dirty white shirt, and his hair was tangled and hanging down because he hadn't taken care of it for a long time.

He looked extremely pitiful, and when he raised his eyes, he did look that way, his eyebrows were knitted, his eyes were full of hope, sadness, and grievance, his face was still covered with dirty wounds, and his voice was choked:

"Father, I was wrong about that. Can you forgive me?"

"I wanted to tell my father about this a long time ago, but Brother Wao said that you don't need that thing now, so..."

Seeing this, Kalida frowned slightly. Although she had accidentally heard King Llane mention this thing, she didn't know what it was.

Now he said in a teasing voice:

"Al, even if you hate your brother, you can't just frame him, right? Have you forgotten what happened in the past?"

He said that what happened in the past was a reminder for him to not forget what the consequences were of doing things in the past.

After hearing what Al said, Vao Ryan was as angry as a bull. It was the first time that his father had beaten him like this.

And it was because of this bastard, I don’t know what that thing is, that made his father so worried, he said angrily:

"I didn't threaten you with that at all! I don't even know what it is!"

Al seemed to shrink his shoulders in fear because of his tone, and he raised his fingerless hand:

"Isn't that right? When I said I wanted to tell father about that, my elder brother had the guards hold my hands... And before that, didn't my elder brother have someone throw away all my things?"

He glanced at King Llane, biting his lower lip and pretending to be cowardly:

"One of them was something my mother left behind. He told me to keep it safe, but when Brother Wao found out about it,

I immediately sent people to burn them all... And that time I wanted to take the opportunity of going to the Rose Country to tell my father, but my eldest brother sent people to hunt me down and threaten me..."

King Llane frowned. Those were the people who were chasing him. Later he learned that they were indeed members of the Waopa faction. Could it be that it was really...

"Huh?!" Vao Ryan glared in anger, rushed forward, grabbed Al, and punched him:

"You lowly creature, now you have learned how to play like this, right?!"

Al did not resist and let him hit him and fell down, hitting the wooden pillar of the bed. His face straightened quickly and with the injuries on his face, he looked very pitiful.

He shrank in fear, as if he was very afraid of his violent treatment, and prayed to Wao:

"I'm sorry, brother. I won't dare to say that again!"

"I just wanted to give it to my father. I just wanted to help my father... I didn't mean to go against my eldest brother."

"What?!" Vao Lane was instantly filled with anger. The society was about to be laughed at by his words. Anger made him unable to control his temper, and he raised his foot to kick.

Queen Kalida glanced at King Ryan's expression and quickly spoke out to stop him:

"That's enough, Wao! Even if Al did something 'excessive', you can't do this!"

King Llane stepped forward and took his hand.

"When did you become so grumpy?!"

"Father!" Vaughn Ryan simply couldn't understand why his father suddenly favored this bastard Al? !

"He's lying, I didn't do anything like this!!"

"That's enough!" King Ryan's ears were buzzing, and he was so angry that he wanted to slap him again:

"Do you think I don't know what you've done over the years? You've gone too far this time!"

Al's expression slowly changed as he sat on the ground. His pretended nervous expression relaxed and became extremely indifferent. It turned out that he knew everything. He might have felt uncomfortable before, but now he just thought it was really funny.

"Father..." Al propped himself up and pretended to stand up with difficulty, forcing a smile:

"It's okay... It's not my fault..."

"You bastard!" Vao Ryan became even more furious. When had he ever been treated like this before? He rushed up and wanted to beat him to vent his anger.

King Ryan gave an order:

"Take Crown Prince Wao away and lock him up in a room!"

The guards immediately came up to pull him, and Vao Ryan was so angry that he struggled to dodge, but it didn't go as he wished. When the king was there, they would of course listen to the king.

Queen Kalida did not say anything and retreated on her own initiative.

"Father..." Al saw them leave and immediately mustered up his courage.

"I'll take my father to find that thing..."

King Ryan's furious expression calmed down, and then he continued with Al's words:

"Al, my dear son, if your mother had told you about this earlier, you wouldn't have suffered for so many years."

"yes..."

Al raised his eyes and looked at King Ryan's hypocritical face, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a barely noticeable smile appeared.

He told King Llane that the item was hidden by his mother in the former castle and in another place nearby.

The former castle was the looted predecessor, the Winterer Empire, and their location was at least two days' journey from that place.

Because of what he said, he was sent by the king to find the thing, and the king also sent his confidant, the eldest son of Duke Oraki, the Marquis Oraki, to accompany him.

This was just as Al had guessed.

A small group of elite troops were preparing to set off. Al's timid figure walked over. In the distance, the young Marquis Oraki stood there with his arms folded across his chest. He had clearly caught a glimpse of Al, who was known as the second prince.

But he stood there pretending not to see anything and didn't come forward to salute. He rolled his eyes at the figure, not understanding why he should go looking for something with such a loser.

But the false gentlemanly etiquette he was taught prevented him from showing it in front of others.

So when Al walked up to him, he smiled very politely and saluted him:

"Oh - hello, His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

Al had changed into a bright outfit, but Oraki was full of ridicule for him in his heart. After all, in the aristocratic world, he was a joke.

Especially at this moment, Ai'er was actually dancing with panic, wanting to salute him as well. Oraki held back his laughter and indeed despised him even more.

All the lines of resistance in my heart were suppressed, and I was filled with disdain.

"This time, please, please give me more guidance, young Marquis Oraki." Al stretched out his hand and said hurriedly.
