Don't call me evil god

Chapter 692: No moral ethics, tricking the elderly!
Everyone had already made various plans for Rune Monger's possible reactions and had practiced them in advance.

Just wait and apply the "script" according to the corresponding situation.

Seeing that the other party was trying to make an excuse to get away, Dolan, who was following nearby, immediately came up to him with high emotional intelligence and persuaded the prince.

"Your Highness, it seems...Mr. Mung is worried about his affairs. Otherwise, please wait until next time..."

It seemed very considerate and was planning to help Rune Monger out of trouble.

Fradin immediately showed a surprised expression on his face and exclaimed: "Ah?! Grandpa Rune, are you in trouble?"

Without giving Mung a chance to explain, as soon as the prince finished speaking, Dolan said with an "I know, I know" look and actively began to "popularize science" to Prince Fradin.

"It should be the recent rumors about the Gilded Club in the capital!"

"Your Highness, you haven't paid much attention to current affairs these days, so you may not have had time to understand it."

"Someone spread a rumor in the capital, saying that there was something wrong with the Gilded Club, and that all the gold coins that everyone invested in it had been used up and could never be taken back."

"Ah?! This is true?! Is this true?!"

The two of them sang the same tune, forcing Rune Munger to be unable to respond, and only now did they pass the conversation to him.

Monger had a constipated look on his face.

After struggling for a while, I could only nod vigorously:

"Of course it's false. These are rumors deliberately spread by competitors with ulterior motives."

"Your Highness, rest assured. The operation of the Gilded Club is normal. It's just that it's almost the end of the year, and the gold coins used for investment in the club need some time to settle the income, so... I'm a little worried about a malicious run on the bank. I need to temporarily raise funds to deal with it."

"That's what I told you!" Prince Fradin said with a look of complete conviction, "It's definitely a rumor!"

"I invested 1000 gold coins and received 80 gold in profit last year. Grandpa Rune is blessed by the God of Wealth. There can't be any problem with the Gilded Club!"

As he spoke, Prince Fradin handed Dolan a badge that could prove his identity.

"It's just a small matter, there's no need for Grandpa Lu En to bother with it!"

"Don't worry, Grandpa Lu En, I will help you solve it!"

"Dolan, take the badge and go find my father's finance minister and ask him to spread the news in the capital, saying that Prince Fradin is willing to use his personal reputation and the royal treasury as a guarantee to prove that there are no problems within the Gilded Club!"

Rune Monger opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Dolan again:
"Okay! Don't worry, Your Highness. I'll do it right away and make sure it's handled properly for you!"

Prince Vladin nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad, Doran. If it were you, you should just stay with me in the future. When I inherit the throne, I will appoint you as my Minister of the Palace!"

Dolan was overjoyed and couldn't stop smiling: "Oh! Then I have to thank the future king!"

Then he ran out in a flash.

After the two of them finished their smooth combo, Prince Fradin turned back and confirmed with Rune Monger:

"It's all right now, Grandpa Rune!"

"I have solved your troublesome problem. Let's try out the new sandbox simulation I came up with!"

……

Monger listened to the whole thing and felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, he had always been friendly to Prince Fradin, and now it seemed to be effective.

Since Fladin was born, he has given a generous gift in the name of presenting a gift to the heir to the kingdom.

When the prince began to try to control his anger and practice combat skills, the weapons, equipment, and potions he usually used were also given to Fradin for free by Rune Monge at no cost.

This included making a promise to Prince Fladin that he could enter and leave his manor at will, and immediately inviting Prince Fladin to come and see if there were any new things, or accompanying the prince who liked "simulated monster wars" to conduct sand table exercises, etc.

These were all considered as the "investments" he had made in advance in Prince Fladiin, which helped him establish a solid positive image in Prince Fladiin's heart.

originally.

Rune Monge planned to wait until Prince Fradin ascended the throne before enjoying the returns from these investments.

But he now seems to have withdrawn part of it in advance.

When these rumors of unknown origin were spreading throughout the royal capital, the prince did not even suspect him and immediately sided with him.

What Monger wanted to say;
What Monger could say;
Even what Monger was planning to do.

Everything was arranged clearly by Prince Fradin in advance.

If he said at this time that he was worried or uneasy, it would be equivalent to not believing the prince's promise!

And it was a promise the prince was willing to guarantee with the royal family!

Even though Mung still had a little doubt in his heart - the matter was not arranged and resolved by him personally, he was worried that something might go wrong with the prince's arrangements, and he must not show it on the surface.

Monger had no choice but to cooperate with Fradin and, according to the other party's ideas, go with him to the building next to the arena that was used for sandbox war simulations.

A group of palace servants and guards were already there, ready to take orders.

Prince Fradin laughed and introduced Monger:
"Grandpa Rune, this time we have to simulate it realistically!"

"I brought a group of people with me on purpose. They are fully aware of the strength of the Royal Guards, the King's Army, and the Crusaders."

"We also brought along the heroes who participated in the previous defense of Stone Fort. They will represent the emerging forces on the eastern border of the kingdom. And only they can accurately tell us what level those super-level 6 monsters are at."

"This time, we won't need the servants in the manor to help with placing the chess pieces and doing the calculations. Let these professional team members do it. This is what they are good at!"

"..."

This was another set of arguments that Rune Monger had no way of objecting to, and it sounded impeccable.

Sand table simulation is a huge project, requiring servants to place chess pieces in different positions on the sand table according to the commands and decisions made during the simulation, representing professionals, armies or monsters. At the same time, a large amount of calculations must be performed to determine information such as the results of the battle.

Originally, this job was done by the male and female servants in Monger Manor who came and went at will. Now Prince Fradin only needed to come in person, and everyone in the manor would revolve around him and play with him.

This time, the poles are reversed!
Everyone present came for Rune Monge, and he was the only one who was deceived and blinded in this performance!

In order to ensure that all channels through which Monger might contact the outside world and obtain information are cut off as much as possible, everyone has made sufficient preparations this time!
