Chapter 77:

Chapter 77: Recruitment is the Most Essential for the Get together

Sushia’s eyes widened as she learn the parchment.

‘You aren’t my daughter.’

Her eyes, now as giant as peas, widened much more.

‘I’m a doppelgänger, borrowing the looks of the Duke of Senestia.’

At this level, her eyes had been as massive as watermelons.

“Inconceivable…!”

Till not too long ago, that they had eaten collectively, talked collectively, and even bathed collectively (with the servants attending). The concept that the household wasn’t actual however a doppelgänger was absurd—even in a play, it will be criticized.

Furthermore, a doppelgänger is a legendary monster that completely mimics an individual.

They had been believed to be extinct.

Sushia continued to learn the parchment.

‘After I first noticed you, you had been a baby.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the newest updates

You had been being abused by the Duke.

Seeing the Duke beat a baby for no cause, I made up my thoughts.

This youngster will probably be helpful.

So, I took him away.’

Sushia recalled the previous.

Her father had been a really strict man when she was younger. Not simply strict, however harsh.

He would get indignant over trivial issues and resort to hitting.

Each night time, she heard her mom sobbing in her room.

It was a deeply buried previous.

As a result of at some point, her father had modified as if he had been “a distinct particular person.”

He all the time smiled at her, handled the servants kindly, and her mom now not cried.

Until she made a critical mistake, her father would admonish her with phrases as an alternative of punishment. Hardly ever, he would choose up a change, however that was very uncommon.

‘I hate the Empire.

The Empire is detestable, Sushia.

They don’t tolerate those that are totally different from themselves.

As a doppelgänger, I used to be captured by them way back and experimented on for many years whereas nonetheless alive.

They could have forgotten, however I bear in mind.

So, I sought revenge.

I gathered these in the identical scenario and shaped a company.

The background of the Duke of Senestia was very helpful.

However now, it’s now not mandatory.

You foolishly fell for the doppelgänger’s trick.

Hahahaha!

You’d by no means know that the true Duke of Senestia is the skeleton mendacity on the ground.

Nicely, take that skeleton and check out interesting to the Empire, crying that the true Duke was murdered.

Anyway, I’m off. I’ve already left for a spot past the Empire’s attain, so that you’ll by no means discover me once more.

Reside nicely, Sushia, and Cecilia.’

Sushia’s fingers, holding the parchment, trembled.

‘If my father was a doppelgänger, then the place is my mom?’

She had no manner of figuring out.

There have been just a few servants who testified that Girl Cecilia had unexpectedly ready and disappeared in the midst of the night time.

“In order that’s what occurred.”

After leaving the basement, Sushia known as for Ascal and Yulia, the individuals she trusted probably the most.

Yulia learn the parchment after dispelling its magic, and Ascal examined the basement. In response to his hunch, there was nonetheless a hidden house within the basement.

Ascal pressed a random spot, and out of the blue, the wall sank into the ground.

And throughout the hidden house was one other hidden house.

Paperwork for the home, land deeds, seals, ledgers, jewels, and insignias.

It was a treasure trove.

The core property of the Duke’s family had been saved right here.

Each mild try to steer the dialog away was met with one other proposal for marriage.

Ultimately, Ascal determined to take drastic motion.

“I like my work! Your Majesty! I need to turn out to be your Prime Minister!”

Prime Minister.

In his goals, Ascal had turn out to be the Prime Minister, solely to be pushed to the brink of madness by the overwhelming workload.

The trauma from that dream had saved him away from the palace for some time. Simply listening to the phrase “Prime Minister” made him really feel queasy.

Nevertheless it appeared higher to work himself to the bone for a yr and retire with the Emperor than to undergo as a part of the royal household perpetually—

“That’s unattainable.”

“Pardon?”

“The Crown Prince got here to me not too long ago and insisted that if Ascal ever requested to turn out to be Prime Minister, I have to refuse. In any other case, he threatened to confiscate my pudding in outdated age.”

Confiscating his pudding? The Emperor, stripped of his energy, appeared pitiful.

The formidable Crown Prince had already blocked all escape routes.

It was as if Ascal might hear the Crown Prince’s voice whispering in his ear.

“Oh, a intelligent transfer. However I already anticipated it.”

It felt like taking part in chess for retirement.

“However I nonetheless have many hidden strikes. Crown Prince, you received’t cease me.”

Ascal’s willpower burned vibrant.

****

One way or the other, Ascal managed to keep away from the subject of marriage, and Sushia’s scenario was settled like this:

<If an appropriate partner is just not discovered inside a yr, Sushia Senestia will inherit the title of Duke.>

Till then, the royal household promised to actively assist the Senestia family.

Thus, Sushia’s new titles had been as follows:

Virtually a Saintess Sushia.

Quickly-to-be Duke Sushia.

One-bite Reviewer Sushia.

“In that case, you get a promotion. You’re now a Seventh-rank official.”

“What, how is that doable?”

“It’s my resolution. Oh, and Lia, there’s a spot we have to go to. Let’s exit.”

“I’ll put together straight away.”

Lia stood up.

Earlier than retiring, Ascal was making ready for one final dragon raid.

He deliberate to not announce it publicly to keep away from inflicting chaos till the whole lot was prepared.

The primary new member to recruit was Sirius.

Chief of the anti-Empire military, a strategic genius, future Swordmaster, and finally known as a hero—a top-tier expertise.

“Somebody with that type of expertise needs to be the one placing within the effort.”

Truthfully, he now not thought of calling himself an extraordinary particular person.​It felt like he had already crossed some extent of no return.

True to his place as the pinnacle of the Analysis Division, Ascal determined to amend his analysis appropriately.

Ascal rummaged by means of his paperwork.

These had been papers summarizing his subjective evaluations.

Previous!<Ascal Debrue: Rank E>

New!<Ascal Erindale: Rank C>

A beneficiant two-rank promotion.

For reference, these positioned at Rank S had been Yulia and Sirius. Just lately, even the Crown Prince was on the verge of being promoted.

They had been essential figures within the dragon raid.

Dropping even certainly one of them could be problematic.

Until some unbelievable new member appeared out of nowhere.

With that thought, Ascal headed to the Haven Orphanage, now often known as the Haven Coaching Heart.

And…

A while later…

“Oh, Grasp! Nice Grasp! Don’t go away us!”

As quickly as Ascal noticed the scholars collectively stomping their boots on high of the desks, he felt dizzy.
