Chapter 35

“What?”

“The Empress made a situation.”

“Situation…?”

“Both the royal household or a Sword Grasp.”

“Ahahahaha!”

Upon listening to the information, Usman laughed out loud. After laughing for some time, he practically fell over, although when he straightened his posture, Haliman, the aide who had been watching him proper subsequent to him, checked out him with pitiful eyes.

“Is that this humorous, Crown Prince?”

“Nicely, in fact, it’s humorous.”

“Sure?”

“In the long run, the Empress is saying that she is not going to marry a local. To be exact, it signifies that she is not going to bind herself with the nobles of the Larchen Empire.”

“Why is that so?”

“If you consider it a bit of, you possibly can see it.”

“That’s lucky as a result of the Crown Prince considered it.”

“I additionally suppose once I want it, particularly if it issues the Empress of Larchen.”

“Would you get that lengthy unrequited love?”

When he was younger, Usman visited the Larchen Empire along with his father.

At the moment, the previous Empress of the Larchen Empire and the present Empress had been collectively. The previous Empress’ consort and Usman’s father, who met on the looking floor, competed for one another’s may and constructed a friendship, however he invited Usman’s father to an occasion in Larchen.

At the moment, the present Empress he noticed for the very first time was a reasonably little little one. It occurred when Usman was seven years outdated…

“Right here is my daughter.”

“That is my son.”

“Hoo. He appears to be like cute.”

“So is your daughter.”

Nonetheless, Usman was stuffed with heartache.

He was in a state of anger as a result of he couldn’t discover the arrow made out of the tail feathers of the firebird he wished. Seeing his father, the No. 1 within the Caliphate Empire, who revered energy, exhibiting half respect to the white and delicate individuals of the Larchen Empire made him much more upset.

“Then, it might be good for kids to hang around with one another.”

“I feel so, too.”

When the Empress of Larchen proposed, his father shortly agreed. He had by no means been extra resentful of his father than then.

‘What ought to I do with the white and pink child?’

Usman was aggravated, however he put up with it. Because the adults disappeared within the distance, the white and pink little one spoke to him.

“Identify.”

“What?”

“I requested what your title was.”

“How dare you little factor discuss down on me like this!”

“Little…factor?”

“Proper! I’m… Uwaaahh!”

It was lightning magic. Usman, who had skilled magic for the primary time, trembled like an aspen tree.

In the meantime, Isilis, who was watching Uthman sitting there with chilly eyes, spoke to him.

“They stated you had been the Crown Prince of the Khalifa Empire, however you weren’t an enormous deal.”

“You! This…”

“Isilis!”

Empress of Larchen’s consort, who ran from afar, made a stern expression as he referred to as the lady’s title.

“Why?”

“Didn’t I let you know to not use magic recklessly!”

“Father.”

“I’m your father, however try to be scolded!”

“The one who will change into the Empress is not going to be scolded.”

“That’s whenever you turned Empress! You have to be scolded at the moment! I all the time informed you to guard the weak!”

“The weak…?”

“Sure! This little one!”

It was the primary time Usman was handled like an underdog.

“He’s an extraordinary little one who doesn’t know how you can use magic? It’s important to have compassion.”

“Isn’t it okay to make use of magic on extraordinary individuals?”

“Chances are you’ll use it in case your life is threatened. He’s nonetheless a baby, isn’t he?”

“This little one informed me I used to be a bit of factor.”

“What?”

It was Usman who flinched on the man’s gaze, who turned his head ‘swish’ at Isilis’ phrases. The person, who had been him with chilly eyes, nodded and spoke kindly to Isilis.

“That little one stated that with out understanding it. Ignorance shouldn’t be a sin.”

“It’s a nice sin to be ignorant in entrance of the Crown Princess.”

“He’s additionally the Crown Prince of one other empire, so let’s give him a break.”

“If father says so… All proper.”

“You’re a good little one.”

The kid regarded pleased on the man’s hand stroking her hair. It was the primary time he was handled as a weakling and the primary time he was handled with magic.

It was additionally the second he first fell in love.

“What’s your title?”

The lady frowned after his phrases earlier than opening her mouth slowly.

“Isilis Larchen. I’m the one who will change into the Empress of the Larchen Empire sooner or later.”

“I’m Usman. Usman Khalifa. You’ll marry me!”

“What?”

He heard the person that was listening subsequent to him screaming, however little Usman didn’t care.

For the primary time in his life, he met a girl who defeated him. She, as Usman all the time stated, was a girl who matched his splendid kind. She was a girl stronger than him… He wished to satisfy such a girl.

Within the schedule after that, he chased after Isilis. His father, who couldn’t bear to see it, hurriedly completed the schedule, though Usman didn’t hand over till he headed to the Khalifa Empire. Even after arriving within the Khalifa Empire, he continued to put in writing letters to Isilis.

She replied again, however he preferred even that.

“After all, my lady must be sassy.”

Haliman was the aide who had seen this from the sidelines from the start.

“So, you actually need to marry the Empress?”

“If not?”

“Crown Prince. Please, open your eyes. If His Majesty finds out, there will likely be an uproar.”

“What’s the uproar? It’s a proven fact that father already is aware of.”

“Did he give your permission?”

“If the earlier Empress had been nonetheless in Larchen, I’d be the probably candidate, not anybody else. father and the earlier Empress of this Empire have already exchanged correspondence with one another.”

The wedding papers had been on their method. Simply as they had been about to announce the engagement, one thing occurred within the Larchen Empire. The Empress’ consort was killed on the battlefield.

Consequently, the wedding talks with the Khalifa Empire got here to a halt, and Isilis ascended the throne.

“I ought to have gotten her then.”

He regretted it ceaselessly. It was a mistake to be careless when the wedding dialog was nonetheless occurring. The second he let go as a result of he thought it was throughout, that second separated Isilis and Usman’s destiny.

“However, how dare… I’ll kill that punk.”

Usman spewed his anger with out hiding his blazing golden eyes. Since he was little, the girl solely checked out him. Sometimes, he despatched presents and corresponded with him. Typically, when she accompanied her father to go to this Empire, she would spend as little time as having a cup of tea, but he valued even that point.

She was a girl who was a waste to the touch, however she disappeared someplace, and a baby was born. And now, she was struggling to make that little one the inheritor to this Empire.

“So long as I discover him, I gained’t let him go.”

“A jealous man is an unpleasant one.”

He heard Haliman communicate softly as if telling him to settle down, however Usman snorted and opened his mouth once more.

“I’ll kill him. How dare he take her away from me.”

“Sure, sure. Do what you want.”

“Haliman!”

“I’m listening. Crown Prince.”

“Whose aspect are you on!”

“What are you going to do? I’ve heard a lot that I’m dying of boredom. You mumble to your self day-after-day. Within the meantime, if I had been you, I’d go and meet the Empress of Larchen.”

“Actually?”

Usman regarded again at Haliman with admiration and smiled.

“Look, Crown Prince. Even when the Empress gave beginning to a baby, it wouldn’t change her thoughts, so you must work arduous. Nobody is aware of that you’re doing this right here and now. In line with the Crown Prince, if that lady stated that she wouldn’t marry an individual from her empire, then the probably candidate for her could be the Crown Prince, proper?”

“Proper.”

“So, please come again to your home and give it some thought calmly.”

“What?”

“Who’s the probably candidate moreover you?”

“Berthas.”

“Bingo.”

Berthas’ title was spat out in a low voice, and Haliman responded.

“You’re proper, Crown Prince. There was that man.”

“Sure. Proper. There was him.”

“He regarded advantageous, too.”

“True. Objectively, he wasn’t dangerous.”

“As well as, isn’t he additionally from the royal household?”

“Half.”

“So, wouldn’t that be a greater situation for the Empress?”

Haliman’s phrases woke his thoughts.

“…I see.”

That was true.

Berthas Hillenton…

The royal household who couldn’t inherit the throne of the Hillenton Empire. Due to this fact, the person had the most effective circumstances for the Empress of Larchen to be her husband. As well as, Sword Grasp… It wasn’t revealed but, however Haliman was sure that Berthas was clearly a sword grasp.

“Crown Prince. What if you’d like one thing?”

“I’ve to seize it with my palms.”

“Don’t overlook. That’s the first precept to outlive within the desert empire.”

“After all I do, Haliman. I’ve by no means forgotten one second.”

“I’m giving this to you as a result of I do know that you’re solely weak towards the Empress of the Larchen Empire.”

“You misunderstood me.”

Haliman smiled at Usman, who smiled meaningfully.

“That’s it. Your Highness. That may be a ruler.”

Workplace of the Larchen Empire.

Isilis was sitting within the chair, flipping by way of papers. Her face regarded sullen as she flipped by way of the papers utilizing tough mana.

Marquis Cyrka, who was helping her by the aspect, spoke.

“Your Majesty.”

“Why, Marquis?”

“You look bored.”

“I’m.”

“You’d higher take a break for some time.”

“I assume so.”

As he stated so, the Marquis acquired up and opened the window of the workplace. The chief attendant, who had been watching, referred to as the attendants outdoors to arrange refreshments. Isilis, who was watching it, spoke to Marquis Cyrka.

“Marquis. Why did you discuss concerning the royal marriage?”

“If I hadn’t carried out that, Your Majesty would have continued to face opposition.”

“That’s proper.”

“And Your Majesty, a royal marriage is critical.”

“Do you suppose I ought to get married, too?”

“That’s proper.”

“Why?”

“As a result of Your Majesty wants a spot to relaxation your coronary heart.”

“Relaxation… my coronary heart?”

“It’s. Your Majesty.”

She couldn’t consider she acquired seen by the Marquis, her aide. Isilis blamed herself for not with the ability to maintain her loneliness. The supreme place was initially a lonely place. She had endured sufficient to know that.

Nonetheless, issues have modified since she met Berthas. She considered him on occasion. His heat made her weak.

“The best place is inherently lonely. Nonetheless, Your Majesty, wouldn’t or not it’s okay for a minimum of one particular person to share Your Majesty’s loneliness?”

“You say the identical factor as Faylos.”

“Did the Grand Duke say that?”

“He did. He informed me to herald a consort.”
