Chapter 50
“Aren’t you busy? Since Her Majesty eliminated the barrier, the border territories should have gone into chaos. What if the monsters assault instantly?”
Attract mentioned whereas trying up and down at Pillair.
Along with his phrases, the Margrave, who had a territory closest to the border, moved.
Different nobles, who had been watching the Margrave as he hurriedly left the palace, additionally hurriedly left as properly. All those that stepped sooner and ran out had been those that had their lands on the border, whereas the remaining nobles watched the state of affairs.
“I by no means knew that such a disrespectful individual to Her Majesty would set foot on this imperial fortress. If I had recognized, I might have killed you earlier than Her Majesty knew… You solely disturbed Her Majesty’s coronary heart for no motive.”
Listening to Attract’s phrases of casually discussing the homicide of a noble with a Marquis title, the nobles confirmed his loyalty to the Empress with their very own eyes.
Regardless that they knew {that a} group of wizards had been loopy concerning the Empress, Isilis, it was the primary time that they had personally confirmed it.
On the similar time, many nobles breathed a sigh of reduction as they had been glad that the chief wizard didn’t take part within the meeting. If he had witnessed the scene the place the nobles compelled Isilis to marry, the chief wizard wouldn’t have stayed nonetheless.
“It’s every week off.”
“Her Majesty went too far.”
“I do know.”
It was so snug.
When she reduce off all of the issues that consumed her magic, her physique felt so mild. Isilis, who got here out to the Imperial Palace backyard and sat down on a protracted bench, heard what the wizards had been saying, however she ignored it. She simply needed to relaxation like this. The wizards additionally shut their mouths, maybe sensing her presence.
As she listened to the story of the wind, entrusting her physique to the light breeze, she noticed Attract approaching from afar, and he or she straightened her physique once more.
“What occurred?”
“The Marquis was imprisoned within the Wizard’s Tower. Perhaps Ignardo’s black magic gained’t work.”
“I hate the phrase ‘perhaps’.”
“They struck the barrier 3 times, however they’ll strike extra.”
He opened his mouth once more, crossing the eyes of the wizards who had been looking at Attract, who was casually speaking about a number of limitations.
“Now, what ought to we do?”
“Nothing.”
“Your Majesty… then, the issue will develop.”
“I do know, however what extra do we have now to do to those that ignore wizards?”
Isilis’s phrases made the wizards’ hearts resonate. The Empress binding herself to extraordinary folks was a spell that made their loyalty even stronger.
“Isn’t it like that?”
Seeing the smile on her face, Attract couldn’t say something. A peaceful, lingering feeling remained in his coronary heart.
“All the things in line with Your Majesty’s will.”
Isilis gestured to him as he bent down. Elevating his physique, he casually went behind her, and he or she smiled at him as she leaned again towards the armrest.
Within the meantime, an Empress shouldn’t present a matted look within the open place to avoid wasting her face, however when she put every part down, her perspective modified. She laid sideways, legs outstretched on the bench.
“The day is getting chilly.”
Attract mentioned.
She smiled at him as he spoke with out trying away from her matted posture. It was a peaceable time.
“How did the Marquis educate his kids?”
“Give us an answer now!”
“The individuals are agitated. At this charge, they’re about to invade the mansions of nobles…!”
Isilis’ wizards had already put the main points into the video stone and distributed it all through the empire with the phrases that the Empress was enraged on the nobles’ negligence.
Upon listening to the information, the folks of the Empire had been livid. They trembled in concern because the Empress’ magic that had protected them disappeared. Regardless that nothing occurred, a obscure concern arose amongst those that had been accustomed to safety.
To alleviate that concern, every day demonstrations had been going down in entrance of the mansions of nobles who had been the principle culprits.
All of it occurred simply two days after Isilis recalled her magical powers.
“Let’s go to Her Majesty!”
“What are you going to do once you go?”
“No, is Marquis Cyrka in his proper thoughts? How dare he say one thing about Her Majesty’s magical energy?”
An aged nobleman exclaimed in anger. His territory was additionally on the border, so he was one of many nobles who wanted Isilis’ safety magic. When he, who had the identical Marquis title, stepped ahead, different nobles additionally started to step ahead.
“You didn’t say something. Have been you additionally considering of one thing like that?”
“You’re loopy, too!”
When one of many younger nobles spoke up, the opposite nobles held him again. One other rely opened his mouth.
“You didn’t get correct training within the County. How might such an individual be a noble of the empire… Tsk!”
Listening to the Depend’s phrases, one other viscount opened his mouth. This time, too, it was a younger noble.
“That’s the reality, isn’t it?”
“The reality? What reality? Are you out of your thoughts now?”
“Regardless of how harsh he could say, Marquis Cyrka is a noble of the Empire. To place such an individual within the ‘tower’ with out trial.”
“That’s proper. Isn’t that the case with the Imperial Household not too way back?”
“Nonsense! The one imperial household on this empire is Her Majesty and the Princess! Who dare…”
“The Marquis is correct! You’ll be able to’t cheat your personal bloodline! It is unnecessary! How dare he, a noble, shake the very foundations of the empire? That is how all of the illegitimate kids got here ahead and began calling themselves nobles!”
It didn’t matter who the heirs of the imperial household of Larchen had been, so long as that they had the blood of the imperial household, they had been born into the Imperial Household. Nobles additionally accepted heirs, similar to the Imperial Household.
Nonetheless, just like the imperial household, bloodline was a very powerful. A spouse who didn’t maintain a title or an illegitimate youngster of the husband couldn’t change into a nobleman. The situation of the bloodline is to inherit the blood of the one who holds the title.
That was it.
The younger nobles flinched on the phrases of the outdated marquis. Additionally they had pleasure in inheriting their title, and that pleasure was the supply of their energy. The phrases {that a} nobleman had simply uttered within the chilly had been phrases that denied the Empire’s succession legislation.
“If an individual who thinks like this can be a noble of the empire, Larchen will quickly perish.”
“Anybody will problem to change into Emperor, and anybody will problem to change into a noble.”
The younger nobles lowered their heads on the phrases of the outdated nobles, who spoke in a lament. Their heads lowered so nobody might see them exchanging secret glances. It was not simple to persuade them as a result of they had been already imbued with Marquis Cyrka’s ideas.
In the meantime, Attract was watching the noisy nobles from a distance.
“Hmm… I see.”
“Your Majesty. It’s not regular.”
“They nonetheless haven’t come to their senses… proper.”
“There are phrases that shake the imperial succession legislation. If it was mentioned amongst nobles, particularly amongst younger nobles, issues could come up.”
Isilis nodded at Attract’s phrases. Even right now, there have been many eyes watching her come out to the backyard and gaze on the flowers leisurely.
A lot of folks, from the imperial guards to wizards, got here ahead to escort her. The Princess and her nanny, Meryl, had been additionally along with her due to an unlucky incident that had occurred not too way back.
“Meryl.”
“Sure, Your Majesty.”
“What do you assume?”
“…Should you ask me for my opinion, I’ll ask Your Majesty one factor.”
Isilis’s head tilted at Meryl’s phrases.
“Your Majesty, are you looking for out these with unusual ideas?”
“I’m attempting to cowl all of them.”
“Then, watch a little bit longer.”
“Just a little extra?”
“It’s. Their dissatisfaction has not but prevailed. When it reaches its peak, one thing surprising will come out of nowhere.”
“Hmm.”
Isilis nodded her head. It made sense.
She then took the Princess from her fingers.
All the things Isilis was doing now was for this youngster. To ensure that her to move on the imperial authority, which had change into extra highly effective in her era, to this youngster because it was. Because the youngster had no magical powers, it was troublesome for this youngster to correctly rule the nation except she had a robust imperial authority.
Berthas may very well be seen within the youngster’s face looking at Isilis with clear eyes… selfless eyes. Wanting into the mellow eyes, she felt relieved.
‘…All the things for the Princess.’
She requested Meryl, trying down on the youngster with unknown eyes.
“She appears sleepy.”
“It’s time to take a nap now.”
“Do you need to return to her room?”
“Sure.”
“Then don’t go alone, go together with them.”
As she beckoned, Attract and one of many knights stood behind Meryl. Isilis, who handed over the kid, spoke to them.
“Nothing ought to occur.”
“I’ll preserve that in thoughts, Your Majesty.”
“I take orders.”
With a glad smile, Isilis leaned again within the chair within the backyard. It was a peaceable time. It’d been 4 days since Berthas left as information of him was coming from the border.
‘I don’t know why he who ought to have returned to Hillenton was on the borders of the Khalifa Empire.’
If it had been the Berthas she knew, there could be a motive. There was nothing incorrect with what he was doing.
“…Wanting intently, he was an intensive man.”
“What did you say, Your Majesty?”
“No, nothing.”
Isilis shook her head. A cool breeze blew, and her hair fluttered within the wind. She felt good within the twinkling daylight.
“It’s a pleasant day.”
“That’s proper. I’m glad that the previous few days have been good.”
“There’s nothing incorrect even when I don’t use my magic. Within the meantime, it appears as if I’ve been sustaining the barrier for no motive…”
“Your Majesty…!”
A messenger got here operating from afar.
“What’s it?”
“Your Majesty! It’s pressing information. Monsters have appeared on the border!”
“Which territory is it?”
“Marquis Cyrka’s property!”
After the messenger reported, Isilis laid her physique again.
“Allow them to maintain it.”
“Your Majesty, the folks of the empire are harm.”
“I’ve warned them sufficient. I’ve no intention of sharing my energy with those that don’t acknowledge my exhausting work.”
“Your Majesty…”
There have been nobles operating from behind.
“Your Majesty! Did you hear the information?”
“Your Majesty—!”
She was utterly misplaced, getting referred to as right here and there. The leisurely afternoon was gone, and solely the nobles chattering clamorously remained by her aspect.
“Why are you right here?”
“Your Majesty! Monsters on the border! Monsters have appeared…!”
“Then?”
