“Your Highness, this is something I researched and developed specifically for Rupert. Asking me to reveal its details, even as a prince, is a disrespectful request.”

Zinnia responded coldly to Edric, who had come to her demanding information about the new golem.

‘Third Prince Edric. According to public opinion, before the Crown Prince changed, he was rumored to be the strongest contender for the throne.’

She recalled the information she knew about Edric, who was now standing before her.

A genius in swordsmanship, the empire’s most handsome man, and the hope of the royal family.

Edric was called by many titles, and honestly, he looked exactly like the prince Zinnia had imagined while reading fairy tales in her childhood.

Not only did he have the noble status of a prince, but his exceptional swordsmanship made him unmatched not only among his peers but even among the royal knights—a true genius.

On top of that, Edric’s striking looks earned him the title of the most handsome man in the empire, rivaling even the princess, who was often referred to as the Empire’s Flower.

Because of these qualities, there had been rumors that he would succeed the throne when the previous Crown Prince, Alex, had fallen out of favor.

‘Could he be trying to use this new golem to claim power again?’@@novelbin@@

Zinnia couldn’t shake off her unease about Edric seeking her out for information about the new golem.

After all, the reason she created the new golem was to support Rupert.

But contrary to her original intentions, the golem she developed turned out to be far too advanced.

‘If this is weaponized, it could become a tool of mass destruction.’

Of course, even if she shared the information, the new golem wouldn’t be easy to mass-produce. However, if Edric managed to create even a slightly inferior version, there was no telling what he might do with it.
