Chapter 214: By no means A Uninteresting Second (1)

He thought not less than one or two incidents would happen.

Not solely Shiron but in addition among the different attendees anticipated an assault or terrorism.

It wasn’t as a result of they knew the long run just like the Prients. It was simply that the Empire had carried out too many issues to be hated, even judging by the present scenario alone.

The explanation why the southern battle space had not been stabilized even after lots of of years.

The oppression of barbarians that had continued for lots of of years.

The vagabonds forcibly relocated from the slums to the Ether mines…

All these incidents had been tolerated below the frequent worth of human survival.

Dreamers with their heads within the clouds would possibly spare no criticism for such oppressive actions, but it surely was inevitable.

The Empire was blocking your entire northern border the place the demonic forces had been descending, and to overthrow the true exterior enemy, different harmful components needed to be preemptively eradicated.

Thus, that they had been totally trampling down potential future threats for lots of of years. Many intellectuals predicted that the amassed pus would burst…

-Lengthy reside His Majesty the Emperor!

-Waaaaaa!

Nothing occurred.

The instigators, who had been blended prematurely, created an environment, and the commoners added their voices to the rising cheers and applause.

It was a profitable coronation. Whether or not they had practiced so much or not, the speech extolling peace and prosperity was so clear that every phrase resonated, and to commemorate this joyous day, the royal household opened the nationwide treasury and rented out all of the eating places within the metropolis.

The individuals genuinely celebrated the brand new emperor’s ascension.

Even those that needed to distance themselves from the Empire and people present forces that needed to take care of ties relaxed after seeing the brand new emperor’s first impression.

So, it was purported to be a cheerful day for everybody, but it surely wasn’t, on account of a girl who felt notably sad.

“Actually… The Empire just isn’t some insignificant rural barony, is it?”

Siriel Prient.

The newly titled Empire’s Finest Sword confirmed that a number of ministers had left after which spoke her thoughts with out hesitation.

“Do you suppose it’s proper to nominate somebody with none coordination, particularly on the day itself, and simply earlier than the occasion?”

“If that they had, I believed you’d have refused.”

“Are you making excuses now?”

Siriel stared at Victor with a displeased expression.

“Even when there was a chance of refusal, it’s best to have not less than hinted or despatched a letter prematurely.”

“I apologize for that. However in the long run, didn’t you settle for?”

“…How will you be so shameless?”

Siriel’s eyes flickered for a second. She had adopted her to the Alhyeon Room to listen to the small print, however as a substitute of apologizing, she was openly discussing proper and mistaken.

“You’ve grown fairly a thick pores and skin since I final noticed you.”

“The scenario dictates that the Emperor ought to by no means bow his head.”

“Oh, please.”

“…I wasn’t purported to apologize earlier, however I couldn’t assist it with an previous good friend.”

Victor stated in a roundabout approach.

Her true which means was that she might not act because the good friend she knew, that she was now an emperor above all. It meant she might not care about private emotions.

Had it been an peculiar subordinate, they might have identified how you can behave in response to such a transparent demarcation, however sadly, the particular person Victor was going through was Siriel.

“Are you doing this on function?”

Siriel rubbed her chin as if deep in thought. The ring on her left ring finger glistened.

“Would you like me to crush your face? Or is it an excuse to separate me from my brother…”

It was actually not one thing a subordinate ought to say to an emperor.

Nonetheless, Siriel’s phrases didn’t come from an absence of sense. As an alternative, it was as a result of she had identified her for a very long time that she stopped at this level.

As proof, a thick vein was pulsating subtly at Siriel’s temple.

“That’s not it. Don’t misunderstand.”

Victor maintained a relaxed expression regardless of the drop in temperature round them.

“Have you ever forgotten the dialog we had throughout the coronation?”

Siriel didn’t go so far as to disclose her gender. She simply gave Victor a glance of disdain.

“If you happen to take pleasure in being overwhelmed, I’ll do it for you. So…”

“No.”

Victor denied it, wanting critical.

Victor couldn’t say it as a result of she feared Siriel would change into cautious, however she did have extra than simply pleasant emotions for Shiron.

At first, it was the sensation of being praised by her father for associating with Shiron, however as she spent extra time with Shiron, she discovered herself genuinely having fun with the scenario, and her affection for Shiron grew.

Furthermore, due to Shiron, the royal household remained secure, and he or she even ascended to the emperor’s place. It could be stranger if her emotions stopped at mere goodwill.

However there have been a number of different causes that ignited Victor’s coronary heart.

The emperor might solely be a person. This was as a result of a person had extra alternatives to supply an inheritor, and an emperor who couldn’t produce an inheritor would have a weak help base, typically resulting in rebellions.

‘5 years… 5 years will likely be nice.’

All the pieces she did to reassure Siriel now was a part of a grand plan. The explanation she didn’t look ahead to Lucia, who didn’t attend the coronation, and didn’t give Shiron a title was all due to this.

When Siriel went on an expedition, she would lure Shiron right into a separate palace and seduce her. It didn’t matter if Shiron wasn’t homosexual.

She was assured that if she revealed her emotions then, Shiron, together with his meddlesome nature, would certainly settle for.

“…No matter occurs, in the event you flirt with my brother, you’re in huge bother.”

Siriel, who issued the risk, took out a letter from her bosom and handed it over. The ring on her left ring finger sparkled.

[The Grand Rien]

The letter bore the title of the empire’s most interesting resort.

“…What’s this?”

“It’s an invite to the engagement ceremony. It’s to be held there in a month. Because you’re an previous ‘childhood good friend,’ I’ll specifically invite you.”

“…”

“Come and see the scene the place I superbly vow my like to essentially the most great brother on the earth.”

Siriel completed her phrases and stood up. She had no extra to say, and he or she had a number of work to do.

…Due to the grand occasion of the coronation, Rien was bustling with exercise. Vacationers from numerous nations had been spreading their wealth, and residents had been getting drunk on the free meals supplied by the royal household.

“It appeared higher to focus on the coronation…”

Yoru muttered as she gnawed on a free turkey leg. In contrast to the wandering camp she used to reside in, the meals in Rien was so high-quality that she needed to share it with everybody again dwelling.

Chew, slurp, chew. Though she was carrying a blazer and skirt frequent within the empire slightly than the normal apparel of Silleya, the scent of the barbarian nonetheless lingered round her.

“The vital factor is sustainable wrestle. A single assault received’t finish something if the princess dies.”

A tattooed man, [Yatching of Nine Snakes], stated. His left cheek initially bore a snake design, however now it was overlaid with ink to disguise his id.

“Didn’t the elders say? Now, when issues are lax, is the fitting time to realize our nice trigger.”

“…Sufficient with the nagging.”

Yoru roughly wiped her sauce-covered arms and scratched the within of her thigh. Though she had scrubbed off the irritating notes, the itchiness started as quickly as she entered the annoying empire.

Scratching her thigh, Yoru appeared up on the splendid constructing in entrance of her.

[The Grand Rien]

It was the empire’s most interesting resort, identified for internet hosting dignitaries from numerous nations. Whereas she walked together with her head held excessive, a neat-looking man, seemingly a guard, approached the group.

“Company, outdoors meals just isn’t allowed inside.”

“Oh, sorry.”

Yoru carelessly threw away the bone she had completed consuming. The guard’s expression frowned at her informal conduct.

At first look, he thought she was a visitor planning to remain, however upon nearer inspection, regardless of her apparel, her conduct was paying homage to a avenue ruffian.

“Hey.”

The guard known as out to the group attempting to go him.

“How will you throw trash within the foyer… Who’re you to hold swords! Hey! Right here, suspicious per-”

Thud—

It occurred right away.

The particular person was break up in half, together with the pillar.
