Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game
#16 - My sister is not simple
Korena's mother possessed beastman blood, though very diluted, passed down from generations long past.
However, after Korena was born, she exhibited signs of atavism, displaying some beastman features.
Beastmen in the Holy Prague Empire were at the very bottom of society, practically slaves.
It's said that when she was first born, Gustav almost killed her in a fit of rage.
Soren remained kneeling for over an hour.
At this moment, Holy Prague III, who had been kneeling in front of the crystal coffin, finally stood up, wiped away his tears, and said, "Before her death, the Empress Consort instructed me to keep the funeral arrangements simple and allow the empire to return to normal as soon as possible..."
"Your Majesty, please accept our condolences..." the ministers and nobles hurriedly echoed.
"By my decree, from this moment on, all funeral rites shall adhere to the late Empress Consort's wishes."
"As you command!"
Hearing this, Soren breathed a long sigh of relief.
With his good-for-nothing father's order, these bitter days were finally coming to an end. Many secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as they didn't know how many people could have endured much longer.
The emperor could retire, but the priests and nuns still had to continue praying for three days and three nights.
After all the elders had left, Soren slowly stood up. Korena, who had been kneeling for too long, staggered when she stood, almost falling. The other brothers and sisters hurriedly avoided her, but as Korena was about to fall, a figure appeared in front of her.
"When kneeling for too long, stand up slowly and let your blood circulate. You won't be like this if you stretch out," Soren said, effortlessly helping Korena up.
"Thank you, elder brother!" Korena said, filled with gratitude.
"No need to thank me. We're siblings!" Soren said magnanimously, supporting her with one hand.
At this moment, a bold idea suddenly sprouted in Soren's mind. He didn't know why Korena would do that thing, but if he could stop her, with Korena's strength, she would definitely become a powerful right-hand woman in the future.
In the Tyrant Soren storyline, Korena was a major general under Soren's command in the later stages. Unfortunately, the two siblings' relationship wasn't harmonious when they grew up, and they often clashed during later wars. If the two could have cooperated sincerely, they wouldn't have been beaten so badly by the Allied Forces.
Korena nodded vigorously.
Soren smiled slightly and affectionately ruffled her hair.
"Alright, you've worked hard these past few days. Go back and get some rest."
Korena was completely flustered. She didn't know what was happening, but she felt very comfortable and warm. Because of her atavism, her mother consort had always ignored her. This was the first time she had felt cared for like this.
Watching Soren leave, Korena secretly clenched her fist.
"Elder brother!"
Now that he had made a decision, he naturally wouldn't overlook the future Grand Magus, Mina.
The current Mina was just a little loli, at the most easily deceived age.
Little Mina was pouting, tenderly rubbing her knees. Her mother was a head maid, so she couldn't be called a princess, only a lady.
Soren walked to the little girl's side. Mina's mother came from a knight family, not even a noble one. Giving birth to Mina was just a result of Gustav's drunken indiscretion.
Afterwards, he didn't even ask Mina's mother's name. If it weren't for Mina's royal blood, she would have been kicked out of the palace long ago.
"Greetings, Seventh Prince!" Emily hurriedly pulled Mina to bow.
"Mina greets Seventh Imperial Brother."
Looking at the childish voice and the young body trying its best to maintain noble etiquette, Soren couldn't help but smile.
Although he had always been a marginal figure among the princes, he still held the identity of a prince, which was much higher than people like Mina.
"You're so young, won't it be hard for you?" Soren squatted down and gently rubbed Mina's little head, asking.
Mina wanted to say it was hard, but hearing Emily cough, she quickly shook her head and said, "It's not hard!"
Soren laughed and didn't care too much. The palace was full of dangers, a place where people ate people. It was understandable that Emily was so careful.
"Head Maid Emily, Mina has reached the age to cultivate. I wonder if you plan to have her cultivate magic or swordsmanship," Soren stood up again and asked unhurriedly.
Emily frowned slightly, obviously considering the meaning of Soren's words.
"Elder brother, what's wrong with you?" After bidding farewell to Emily, Soren was considering other plot tasks when someone suddenly grabbed his sleeve and asked softly, "Mother consort is very angry!"
Soren looked back and found that it was his younger brother Yasso, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Compared to the other brothers and sisters, Soren's impression of this Yasso was the most vague, only because Yasso died three years after the start of the plot. The reason was that Nicholas used him as a scapegoat, threw him into the royal prison, and Nicholas sent someone to kill him in prison to make Yasso confess, with the excuse of suicide out of fear of punishment.
This was also the reason that prompted Soren to lean towards Empress Maria.
Turning around and holding Yasso's hand, Soren patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, don't you know mother consort's temper? It will be fine when her anger subsides!"
If he wanted to make Empress Maria speed up her actions, he had to spread the news that he and his mother consort were at odds throughout the palace, preferably alarming his good-for-nothing father. Whether it was for show or to win over the Haron family, he would agree to Empress Maria's proposal.
"Younger brother, how about going to my place for a while?" Soren thought for a while and suggested.
As for Maria and Nicholas, the game plot had already revealed their selfishness and self-interest. No matter how hard he tried or what he gave, he would not gain their favor. Since that was the case, Soren didn't care what they thought of him.
Regarding Yasso's plot, Soren suddenly thought of a small detail. Although it seemed unimportant, it was the key to Soren's achievement of Sword Saint.
By chance, Yasso picked up a maze that contained the inheritance of the Holy Sword. Because it was obtained too easily, Yasso didn't take it to heart.
After Yasso died, Soren found the address of that maze when he was sorting out his belongings. At that time, Soren said with a sad tone.
"I still didn't complete what I promised you back then."
Yasso had also invited Soren to explore the secret realm together, but he refused. Later, in order to fulfill Yasso's last wish, he went alone and eventually obtained the inheritance of the Demon Sword, Infinity Blade.
