We are now in the midst of a glimpse of the rear palace.

A curtained throne sits behind a huge hall that is also comparable to the hall of the Imperial Theatre.

Sitting on its throne is Her Majesty Queen Christina, the main chamber of Emperor Ifestio Empire.

We can only see the shadow over the curtain, but it is presumed that she is an elderly woman.

"In response to the sudden offer, you will have the opportunity to pray for its generous willingness, painful."

Iscarios kneels down and bows his head back.

"Fine. It will be too much for you to visit me.

Besides, we have the audacity to bring the Gentiles to this rear palace. "

Speak to Iscarios in a firm and strong tone for the old man.

"I don't even put this disrespect in the abyss of my thoughts to forgive you, just because of the crisis itself..."

"Still good, good, good!!

I haven't even mastered Imperial language for everyone!!

Let me tell you something!! Can I help you?

Blade yells and scatters impatiently.

Melia and Iscarios are blue, and Farkas is smiling bitterly.

Lexie, being held back by Kukri, doesn't know what she's thinking with a vain look.

But my thoughts are the same as Blade's.

I'm not asking for an unreasonably prescriptive look.

"Mm-hmm. You're good to be well.

Sowen's Kid. "

The Empress said so, and made her open the curtain and reveal herself.

An old woman with bright white hair tied up and a brilliant tiara on her head walked in front of us.

"In the face of it, Iscarios and Lexie are exposed to nothing.

The fact that Almeria is with us means that for Lexie, the prospects are off. "

I'm laughing at my mouth but my eyes aren't laughing.

I thought you were a creepy person.

"I don't care about this Debs prospect.

What I want to know is what you're up to.

Why? "

Tension runs on the field in Blade's words.

"You tried to bull Iscarios' private militia using the Debs!

The roar echoes through the hall.

Yes, Lexie was blackmailing Iscarios with instructions and backup from the Empress.

That would mean it was a match pump by the Empress.

Blade was angry, and Iscarios was wolfed.

Now that the threat of Santa Monia is imminent, there must be no such thing as imperial treachery.

There was no other solution than to ask directly.

"Though it seemed good because Iscarios was a coward... it wasn't strange that civil strife between the great aristocrats would have occurred if we did poorly.

Were you planning on crushing the country with this farce?

Answer!! "

The Empress takes Blade's fury, overwhelmed even by the big man, without moving a single eyebrow.

And

"What the concubine thinks, what she mouths, what she moves her hands, it's all for the Empire.

The Millennium Empire Ifestio is the strongest spear and last shield in the human world.

Whoever names the royal family is only a device for lubricating its functions. "

"I don't know what this means. The farce is lubricant, too."

"Ranri"

The Empress stares at Blade.

"A Sauennese lord who has traveled would have found out.

The problems of the Empire, their vulnerability. "

"... you mean that"

Blade weakens his killing temper, arms up and looks down at Iscarios.

"Hom Hom. Tell Grandma to explain it to us so we can figure it out."

"Don't be coarse though.

Be careful what you say.

If you say Baba or something, they'll kill you. "

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

"You've been sober for a long time, wwww."

'Hey, the guy who said Grandma.

Give me that bad neck. "

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

"... was there someone like that in my concubine's grandson?

The Empress smiled bitterly.

"Fair enough. I am unfamiliar with imperial language, so I will not ask.

And let's meet your demands. "

The Empress sat on her back, which the samurai placed on her side.

"The Empire's military might is the strongest in the human world.

Even if they are inferior to Sauen's in individual combat, they are far outnumbered in size and organization.

He is therefore at the forefront of the Demon King's War, but devotes most of the resources of a vast nation to armaments.

And we have spoiled the Harmonian agreement and taken no measures against humanity at all.

In the unlikely event of the emergence of a nation that flies the anti-flag of Harmonia into hiding, the world's most powerful empire will be transformed into a blind soldier with only a paper shield.

That is why the concubine gave Iscarios the role of eye.

To observe the world and prevent the crisis of the Empire. "

The Empress looks down on Iscarios.

"Iscarios, you are an imperial treasure.

He is the most powerful transcendent of our time (Irregular) and can cross parity with the Demon King in tactics, but that's all.

You tie your part to spear work only.

Now I'm still a young man, so that's good, but sooner or later you have to wear chills, old age, and sagginess to be one of the Emperor's arms.

So I gave him this assignment... and he was just short of actors. "

Iscarios lowered his head so deeply that his neck might fall off.

"One of the purposes of putting Lexie on Iscarios is to try Iscarios, as you will already know.

How to bounce back Lexie's threats.

I was looking forward to it, but I'm also very interested.

I committed foolishness that you would never have done on the battlefield, such as sparing a pawn and turning over the general's head.

Maybe outcasts are more terrifying than demons. "

The Empress's eyes are pointed at Lexie.

"Until the other day, I tried to live up to my concubine's expectations.

You can put your chest up.

But you can't see the sweetness of the stuffing.

Yingjie tends to fall into more trouble than Tai Gu, such as giving in to color tricks.

Well, that would be a bad precedent for future generations. "

I was caught in the Empress's words.

Countless mistakes made since ancient times are now more precedent?

It was Falcus who answered my question. [M]

"Overtaking, give me a chance to speak, too"

"Forgive"

Farkas bows his head.

"We've been touring countries since we didn't even go to the end of the year, but it's a diverse way of being in the country.

Yes, for example, the Kingdom of Holy Gordia was a small country with an incomparable history with the Empire, but a novel system of state was put together.

That's the unlimited status of a woman close to a man.

In his country, women participated in politics, manipulated the male ruled class and took on a wing of state management.

The reason is that women have a longer life expectancy of more than 10 years, and that fishing is a major industry in marine countries, so men may be in the country for a limited time.

The Empire also has men on the battlefield, and because of this, there are only a few human resources available for internal affairs, and that distortion leads to a decline in the quality of the city's slums and adventurers' guilds. "

"Hmm. That sounds like the Millstein family of home affairs officers.

Go on. "

"Ha. I know it is impeccable as a minister to weigh within His Majesty's will and speak ahead of time, but I dare you.

Your Majesty is considering the use of women within the Empire.

However, the current lack of legal systems and education that do not allow women to inherit titles.

There was a need to show a clear basis for overturning and servicing them.

If you seem to be able to promote Miss Lexie as a pioneer in your conception and suppress General Iscarios, aren't you trying to embody the achievements to His Majesty the Emperor and the Elders and to carry out reforms that will allow the recruitment of female aristocrats in internal affairs?

Listening to the words of Farkas, for the first time, the Empress makes a real grin.

"Brilliant. The boulder is Millstein's secret.

What a waste to keep as an entertainer.

Why don't you really marry Lexie and devote yourself to your country?

I don't mind giving you the Duke. "

"I am the ultimate in pleasure, but I am a curiosity of artistic madness.

Only the goddess on stage and I decide to dedicate my love to my heart.

Even if the Millstein family tries to crush you, you can't bend your way of life. "

Merliah and Iscarios are wary of that grand story, but it seems to have been a satisfactory answer for the Empress.

"I don't even have to put it on the scale with the goddess and her color-boggling daughter.

Forgive me. I'll pierce your way of life and feed the Empire in a different way. "

Farkas bows his head deeply.

"Well, as for putting this on later...

Is the information that Almeria brought home worth putting in the concubine's ear?

Iscarios replied "Yes," and told the Empress of Santa Monia's plans to invade.

After listening, the Empress did not even try to hide her discomfort.

"You sorcery lunatics...

Are you going to destroy the world to explore "

Blade stands up and speaks to the Empress.

"Sauen will do everything in his power to destroy Idea's room.

The Empire will recapture Eisenburg as soon as possible and stop the invasion of Santa Monia. "

"I don't even wish.

The official messenger will follow.

Regardless, keep this matter confidential.

The irritation is too strong to put into the ears of folk grass, such as the outbreak of war between humans.

Therefore, it is also unacceptable for Sauen to cut off the territory of Santa Monia "

"Right. But if I let you drink the terms, I will have your country drink the corresponding terms."

That's what Blade says, hands on me and Merliah's shoulders.

"Koitz is a deserter cruz from Santa Monia.

Knowing Santa Monia's plan, I'm not making it any better.

And he's a man I can trust.

Sometimes he took Armeria, who hid her identity, back to the Empire with only her righteous heart, and saved my life.

Even if there are 100 adventurers in the area with their arms, they'll be enemies.

Hold him as a guest and use him as an escort to the Imperial City. "

I'm surprised at Blade's words... No, I'm not.

I was struck by surprise, but I'm not.

More, all sorts of emotions are swirling.

So much so that it can't be worded.

"So, the other is the treatment of Almeria.

Almeria, who has classified information, may want to end it immediately, but I want you to wait.

He is the bearer of weather and survival to the inexplicable that has crossed Santa Monia, Sauen and the Empire without much information or power.

You can treat the noble lady indiscriminately.

If you involve women in politics, I think it's an interesting rare talent.

Shouldn't it be better to use some effort to protect you?

That was Merliah's help.

Blade offered the Empress the demands that stuck to Iscarios over his head.

Melia looks wide open and alternates between Blade and me.

"Put your personal wishes on the table for the rush for the fate of the country"

"This kind of sagginess, isn't it?

What you wanted from Iscarios. "

Blade laughing niggardly.

The Empress laughs half-wittedly.

"Iscarios. Carve this humiliation of defeat into your chest.

General Changsheng - To be a man without falsehood by that alias, which is excessive. "

"Ha..."

Iscarios is meditating on his eyes.

Its face is engraved with deep wrinkles.

"Well... Lexie.

As for your disposition... naturally, but I can't blame you.

I also missed the color because of Yingjie's qualities and spoil, but it seems to shrug my legs at it. It's just a rape male.

I no longer feel like putting you at the disposal of my concubine.

Well, I refuse to admit it to Iscarios' wife, etc.

The incompetence of Rollingen, who cannot monitor or educate one daughter, is also worthy of sin.

Therefore, you will be sentenced to a maximum sentence for another crime, and you will hold Rollingen accountable for it.

Is there anything left to say? "

"No," murmured Lexie with a vain eye.

But I...

"Grandma. Could you please not kill Lexie?

"Ha!?

The Empress looks at me as she looks like a jerk.

"So concubines don't know grandchildren like you...

I just felt like my granddaughter was screwing me...

No, no, not really. This guy is a sinner who betrayed his concubine's orders.

Besides, it's a disgraceful imitation of giving in to color tricks, etc. "

"It was Iscarios and Faldine who made me and Blade imitate that embarrassment.

If it's a sin for her to be trapped, I think it's a sin for the people who trapped her. "

I know it doesn't make sense.

Whatever the process, the reason Lexie is brought to justice stems from a gap in her own mind.

Lexie had fallen into Meliá and had even plotted to kill her wayward.

He's a hateful enemy to me, too.

But she didn't seem evil for forgiving Fardeen her heart and trying to protect him.

If that figure is Lexie's potential for growth, killing her now doesn't seem like the right choice.

It's pathetic, as Yoshimoto said.

Too much in a death where the result of being saved by false love is humiliation.

"Wow, I plead for help from me too!

We were never close sisters, but still she is my sister.

As a name for the Rollingen family, she is sentenced to a maximum sentence and I must not have a pardon or anything!

Please, be generous!

Melia lays her head down on the ground with a loud voice.

The Empress stares at Merliah's head.

"Right. From me, too, please."

Faldeen also continues.

"Speaking of the original, it was sin that made my play too good.

Even if the goddess is against her, she would be the same as her biological daughter in front of my play.

There will be no one who can't lift a mountain without training. "

The Empress also looks out for the grand Faldine attitude.

"In the first place, we cooperated on this plot to save her life.

If you're a person who doesn't solve love and compassion, you don't have to make amends for death, but she just didn't know. "

Farkas glanced at Lexie and smiled softly.

"I would not be a saintly prince, but I understand you as a man of righteousness and love.

Please spare me her life. "

A slight light dwells in Lexie's vain eyes, staring at Farkas.

I cannot speculate in that mind.

"Don't be foolish..."

The Empress suppresses her temples with one hand just because she wants to have a head.

"Faldine, you certainly don't trust me.

What kind of nerves do you have in front of your concubine, making grand playful remarks? "

Faldine keeps her head down and her face from being seen, but her mouth is laughing.

"But it is commendable that Cruz and Ya and Almeria sheltered their earlier enemies until they put themselves at risk.

Blade, you're right, Cruz makes a man of enough credit and Almeria is funny.

I'll have you both in my name. "

"Your English is broken, it hurts"

Blade finally changed his uncanny attitude and thanked the Empress for her sophisticated manoeuvres.

"Lexie, you're the one trapped, but are you prepared to live without saying anything about what's happened to you, in keeping with your insistence, as the end of an imperial aristocracy?

Lexie is just shaking and struggling to respond.

The Empress sighed,

"Change the question.

Are you someone Faldine deserves to trust or not?

Lexie opens her eyes and bows her head with both hands.

"Yes......!

My name is Lexie von Rollingen.

As the daughter of the Marquis, I pledge my allegiance to the Empire, do not act to its detriment, and dedicate myself to you. "

The Empress exhaled phew and ordered Lexie to lift her head.

"Young people's counterparts get tired...

Soon you'll taste it. "

The Empress said so, leaving the hall behind.
