The Strongest Dull Prince's Secret Battle for the Throne - Vol. 1 Ch. 1

This is nice because the brothers are with each other instead of fighting, or at least I hope it stays like that.
 
@siscon okay thank you cause Leo's Response made it sound like he knew that Arnold was Silver I got confused
 
@Tych: I wouldn't be surprised if the brother DID know. The butler KNOWS and since the brothers are close, I believe Leo knows what his brother is capable of. At the very least Leo knows his brother isn't a NEET, just carefree and irresponsible.

He did say his brother was more suited to be emperor and Leo hardly seems like the type to flatter people like that or want some puppet emperor.
 
@Meo Right I felt that from the conversation immediately so its like "wait what? I thought he said no one knows?" yet his "Alfred" knows and now his brother is droping hints that "yeah I know and I know you know I know" so its like wait a minute can I get the next chapter to clear this up
 
@Tych
That's what I thought too, but in next arc
the MC played as silver for representing his brother in certain game and he didn't seem to know his secret
, unless he's acting like he doesn't know that our MC is Silver then I don't know that tho lol.
 
So is there action in this or not? I don't want to read some GOT-squabble about some throne.
 
The translated WN hasn't gone far yet but I'm already betting that Leo is the evil twin as in one chapter
Leo's symbol was a black cross with white background while Arnold's was the opposite. I call that clear foreshadowing
 
@arkvin Last I recall,
twin brother is not the villain. However there are 3 main villians, the other 3 heirs to the throne. They are truly ruthless assholes, despite their capability in their respective fields.
 
I'm with @arkvin and @LayZzz on this one. Pun-time: I don't like the air around this heir.
It could be, that he wanted to join the race from the beginning. He played the innocent, but gifted, little fool-like brother, used his advantages (e.g. being overlooked/underestemated) and gathered information and placed his pawns. Then when he finally got close enough to that general (a guy that is a) hard to handle for people officially aiming for the throne and that b) will perish soon anyways, so nobody else bothered) and was on the peak of that guy's acknowledgement, he offed him to get the most out of his death. And also to have a "legit" reason to join the frail. "I don't wanna, but now I have to."

The question, if his brother wouldn't like to become Emperor, becomes dubious from this POV, but I actually do believe he doesn't want to do harm to his twin brother. It's for the same reason why the MC didn't realize his bros real intention. It is genuine love. He wants MC to become the emperor in the end, because he believes him to be the best ruler. It's either that or (less interesting) he secretly despised his brother for being the free one, while he had to suffer from pressure and education, and that it is his brother's fault for not carrying his own share.

Nether the less I read some of those stories, in which the MC had this "big" secret. Turns out in most cases, that the other characters had the bigger ones. The smell of used >Plot device<.
