Chapter 51

“…What did you say simply now?”

“I mentioned ‘then.’ What are you asking me to do?”

“Your Majesty! The Imperial Household has an obligation to guard Larchen!”

“To pressure my obligation with out defending my rights. Why ought to I exploit my energy for these of you who don’t recognize what I do?”

“Your Majesty…!”

“Isn’t that true? Why? Are you going to lock me up and use my magic energy?”

The nobles froze on the ambiance that had modified instantly because it appeared sure that Marquis Cyrka had mentioned one thing silly. All of the nobles who got here working fell to their knees.

“…Your Majesty! Please rethink your choice.”

“I’ve all the time revered your opinions.”

“Please rethink your choice!”

Seeing the nobles shouting in unison, Isilis clicked her tongue. It was troublesome to correctly cope with the monsters that appeared on the border, so that they requested for assist. Seeing the nobles shouting in unison, blinded by their very own pursuits, made her sigh.

“Your Majesty.”

“My trip will not be over but.”

She appreciated the overflowing magic energy. It was the primary time since she inherited the place of Empress that she was in such good situation.

The sensation that one thing was all the time leaving her physique… she lived with that sense of loss, however now her magical power now not felt drained. If something, her physique was in one of the best form of her life.

“Your Majesty. To the younger nobles’ slip of the tongue…”

“Slip of the tongue? Did you say it was a mistake…?”

“We had been flawed!”

The Marquis, who had spoken to her, lowered his head with out even ending his phrases correctly. With Isilis’s eyes rising colder, Duke Verus stepped out.

“Your Majesty.”

“Inform me, Duke. What ought to I do with those that carelessly talked about the Imperial Household and their magical powers?”

“Your Majesty can do as she pleases.”

“Hoo. Is that okay?”

“To have a harmful concept that shakes the foundations of the empire… evidently they don’t seem to be alone.”

“Do you suppose so, too?”

As she glanced at every of the nobles who had been bowing their heads, there have been a number of nobles who prevented her.

“These are those who deny the title succession regulation. Might it’s carried out in line with Your Majesty’s will.”

“Duke…!”

“Be quiet!”

Duke Verus shouted resolutely. He bent down once more and spoke to Isilis.

“Please punish them, really feel sorry for the individuals of the empire and forgive them simply this as soon as.”

Different nobles agreed with Duke Verus’ phrases that they might entrust Isilis with how she would cope with nobles like Marquis Cyrka.

The monster drawback in the mean time was time delicate. If Marquis Cyrka couldn’t face up to the monsters’ invasion, the following territory could be the County. Whereas different empires had been poking at their borders, they couldn’t flip their troops round.

Their failure was brought on by how they depended solely on Isilis’ magical energy and failed to arrange for the modified state of affairs.

“Then, put a seal on it.”

“What?”

She had no intention of letting the nobles climb on her. The rationale she confirmed her personal energy whereas retrieving the magical energy was not just for the Princess’ sale but additionally to additional strengthen her imperial authority. She needed to get hold of a memorandum from nobles for a robust imperial energy.

“Carry it.”

“Sure, Your Majesty.”

At her name, the escort knight standing behind handed out a doc. It was a memorandum stating that when nobles plotted insurrection, the disposition could be entrusted to the Empress. A murmur might be heard among the many nobles who had learn the paper, however Isilis didn’t care.

“Seems to be such as you’re going to commit treason.”

The nobles scrambled to stamp their seals at her phrases. By the point a lot of the assembled nobles had put their seals on, Isilis, who had been mendacity at an angle, received up.

“Did you say you wanted a barrier?”

“It’s. Your Majesty.”

“Since you’ve proven me your loyalty, I need to additionally repay it.”

With that, she blew her magic into limitations all through the empire. As her full power drained away instantly, she felt empty because the limitations of the imperial fort had been being constructed tightly once more.

It was then.

“Your Majesty..!”

“Be quiet!”

“Your Majesty! It’s not doable!”

When Attract interfered whereas she was attempting to ascertain a barrier, the nobles round him held on to him. Isilis noticed him, too, but when she stopped in the midst of establishing the barrier, she might be damage by the magic.

As time handed and the barrier was accomplished, she glanced at Attract.

“What’s it?”

“The Princess has disappeared!”

“What did you say?”

“The… nobles!”

The nobles standing in entrance of Isilis knelt at Attract’s phrases, who shouted with anger. Even the nobles had been bowled over by what occurred inside minutes of signing the oath.

“The video stone… Video stone!”

Because the enraged Isilis’ magic exploded, the escort knights and wizards hurriedly moved as she shouted. They listened to Attract whereas they introduced the video stone.

“Whereas I used to be taking the Princess, I used to be attacked by younger nobles. Making the most of the hole within the palace limitations, they got here into the palace and whereas combating in opposition to them, the Princess’ physique glowed and disappeared instantly.”

“…Does her physique glow?”

“Sure.”

Isilis staggered at Attract’s phrases, biting her lips.

“Your Majesty!”

Duke Verus cried out in concern, and she or he waved her hand.

“Who’s it? Who dared to do that?”

“These had been those who sympathized with Marquis Cyrka’s ideas.”

“The place are they?”

“I caught them with restraint magic. Despite the fact that I missed one, the barrier is activated, so that they received’t be capable of get out simply.”

“Let’s go.”

“Sure.”

As quickly as she completed her phrases, Attract hurried out of the backyard. Nobody confronted her as she appeared across the aristocrats with burning eyes. They had been all bowing their heads.

“What do you suppose?”

A nobleman trembled at her lowered voice and barely opened his mouth.

“We now have nothing to do with it. Your Majesty. Please…”

“That’s not what I requested.”

“Your Majesty. Please forgive me.”

“I requested what you suppose, Duke.”

Nobody answered her phrases.

“It’s the third time the princess was focused. In the long run, they lastly succeeded.”

Her imaginative and prescient was obscured. All she did grew to become meaningless… it was meant for the kid, however the baby disappeared.

“We… we’ll discover her. Your Majesty!”

“That’s proper! We’ll discover her!”

“Give us an opportunity!”

As she closed her eyes and caught her breath, Isilis tried to be calm. There was nothing good about being agitated. Persevering with to suppose, she tried to remain calm.

‘Her physique was shining…’

There is likely to be two causes… both the princess manifested her magical energy, or the protecting magic from Berthas’ necklace was manifested. Nonetheless, both means, it was good as a result of they each meant that the princess was secure.

In line with Attract, the Princess shone and disappeared with no probability for the nobles to hurt her. Isilis determined to consider extra in the truth that the Princess was alive. That was an affordable conclusion.

Along with her eyes submerged on the nobles clamoring in entrance of her, she opened her mouth.

“You will see that the Princess?”

“Sure, Your Majesty.”

“We’ll.”

As she listened to the nobles, Isilis raised her chilly, sunken eyes. The nobles who met her gaze flinched and turned their heads. She tried to maintain her cool. The Princess could be alive since a magical weapon enchanted with safety magic would have protected the kid.

Isilis stored repeating so.

‘…I simply wanted to seek out her.’

“Ought to I belief you?”

“Please belief us.”

“Those that have blasphemous ideas?”

“We’ll discover them, too.”

“I’ll.”

With Duke Verus on the head, different nobles scrambled to talk out as they feared that Isilis would break the barrier.

“Duke Verus. Get the Marquess.”

“I’ll comply with your orders.”

“Marquis Miller.”

“Sure. Your Majesty.”

“I’ll entrust you with discovering her princess. Be sure you discover her and produce it earlier than me.”

“I take orders.”

“The remainder of the nobles will, in fact, cooperate with these two, proper?”

“We’ll comply with your orders.”

As she listened to the nobles talking in unison, Isilis gestured. She sighed as she watched the nobles retreat at her beckoning, as she couldn’t management the feelings working by way of her. It appeared that she would solely be capable of really feel relieved if she might see the Princess’s security together with her personal eyes.

It was the knights and wizards who checked out her restlessly and turned her consideration.

The Emperor’s anxiousness was one thing they couldn’t see of their eyes. She murmured as she left the spot and headed for her workplace after going backwards and forwards for some time.

“They’ll discover her quickly.”

Nonetheless, the truth was not really easy.

Berthas appeared up in confusion on the sudden feeling of magic. A lightweight was shining from his necklace.

“What is that this…”

“Uwaangggg!”

The voice of a kid crying mightily echoed by way of his barracks. All of the subordinates within the assembly checked out him in amazement.

“Your Excellency, what’s occurring?”

“What is that this baby?”

“Who’s it?”

He was dazed on the phrases that sounded on the similar time. The kid nestled in his arms was crying loudly. Clumsily dealing with the kid, Berthas appeared into the kid’s face.

It was his baby… the daughter of him and Isilis.

‘Why is the kid who needs to be protected within the Imperial Palace right here?’

Stunned by the sudden incident, they stopped the assembly and approached Berthas.

Surrounded by the big males, his daughter stopped crying and gazed at them curiously. She was a curious baby. Berthas laughed on the sight of his daughter smiling casually, although she might have been overwhelmed by the lads.

“Captain, don’t simply snigger and clarify. Who is that this?”

“My daughter.”

“Oh, I see. What?”

“I mentioned it was my daughter.”

“Did you say… daughter?”

“That’s proper.”

“Then, that is the captain’s…”

“That’s the way it occurred.”

“So, you’re the royal household of Hillenton with legitimacy.”

“That’s proper.”

“The regent you talked about…”

“It is going to be me.”

His phrases made everybody overlook what to say. They had been planning a method to assault Hillenton’s capital, however it didn’t really feel actual.

Berthas declared that he would depose Hillenton’s Emperor and Crown Prince, however they had been Hillenton’s knights. Everybody couldn’t open their mouths due to the sensation that actuality was abruptly approaching.

“In case you change your thoughts even now, inform me.”

“No.”

“Completely not.”

“It could actually’t be.”
