What Happened Before Episode 4
The story centers on Arnold Lakes Adler, the seventh prince of the Adrasia Empire. To everyone around him, Arnold is a complete joke. He is known as the “Insipid Prince” because he seems useless and weak compared to his more talented twin brother, Leonard.
But this is all an act. In secret, Arnold operates as Silver, one of only five magic-wielding SS-rank adventurers on the continent. He uses forbidden ancient magic and has power that far exceeds what anyone expects.
The story takes a turn when the Crown Prince, the first prince, suddenly dies. This death starts a fierce battle for the throne among the emperor’s children. With the succession undecided, the princes and princesses begin fighting to expand their power.
Arnold does not want to become emperor. He makes a decision: “I do not want to die. I might as well make my brother the Emperor”. So he begins working in the shadows to crown his twin brother Leonard. He uses his secret identity as Silver to manipulate the succession struggle from behind the scenes.
The first episode showed Arnold’s double life and introduced the key characters. Episode 2 continued to build the world and the conflict. Episode 3, which aired on July 20, moved the story forward as Arnold’s secret maneuvers began to take shape.
A preview for Episode 4 has been shared online, with still images from the episode showing what is to come. The episode airs on July 27.
