"From the moment His Majesty designated you as Prince and gave you this name, he has considered you the heir. No matter how brutal or tyrannical His Majesty may be, he would never make a foolish decision when it comes to the heir."

The Tyrant's intention to kill him was known throughout the royal family.
"But haven't you survived until now, and quite well at that?" Burbank saw right through Emil's thoughts.
