Chapter 80 – Episode 80 the Aristocratic Maurice Appears in Earnest. Emir Why Are You Here?

Daejeon meeting.
Ronald, who participated as Treasurer, was very nervous.
‘Is he still not coming?’

It was because Morris had not yet been seen to participate in the meeting in Daejeon.
When are you planning to come?
Nervous, Ronald stomped his feet inwardly, waiting for Maurice to come.
Then, he heard the emperor’s voice humming to him.

“Hmmmm.”

The past few days, the Emperor seemed to be in a good mood.
For reasons unknown to him, the atmosphere at the meeting was not bad thanks to that.
Most of the Daejeon Conference was led by the imperial faction.
The biggest reason was that there was no Duke Siegfried to keep the Emperor and Duke Solarion in check.

“… Please allow the Ministry of National Defense to expand its budget.”
“Do it.”

Even now, there is no noble who would dispute the opinion proposed by the Duke of Solarion.
Nominally, the aristocratic faction and imperial faction were divided, but in reality, it was no different from a soloist of the imperial faction.
That must be why the emperor is in a good mood.

“Earl Ronald is heavy-mouthed today? Would you like to talk about something?”

The emperor looked at Count Ronald and asked.

“Are you talking about your convictions?”
“Okay. Isn’t he still the treasurer? Someone recommended it and uploaded it.”

It’s ironic that with Emily’s help, he won the treasurer position.
After speaking, the emperor giggled and smiled.
He had a smile that was not dignified enough to be called the emperor of a country.
It was then.

“Your Majesty, the Minister of Magic has entered Daejeon to attend the meeting!”

A soldier came in and reported to the Emperor.

“Minister of Magic? You mean Maurice Dmitri?”
“That’s right!”

He was a person who did not attend the Daejeon meeting unless there was something big going on.
He was also a person who did not have to participate in the meeting because of the special nature of the Ministry of Magic.
A person like that would now join the meeting?
A question mark was drawn in the heads of everyone in Daejeon, including the emperor.
Except for Ronald Mann.

“Stop by.”

As soon as the emperor finished his words, the gates of Daejeon opened wide.
A man of lofty beauty gracefully stepped out and entered step by step.
The strongest wizard, with the prestige of being the strongest human in the empire.
It was Maurice Dmitry.

“Meet the sun of the empire.”

Feeling the pierced gaze, I bowed my head in front of the emperor.

“What’s up with the Minister of Magic? I thought the minister wouldn’t be coming today.”
“I heard this because I have something important to report to His Majesty.”
“Is it important?”
“Yes.”
“What is it?”

I looked around before opening my mouth.
Duke Solarion, the leader of the imperial faction, was looking at me with surprised eyes.
Except for Ronald, the aristocratic aristocrats also had similar eyes.
The Minister of Magic suddenly appeared.
Imperial war hero.
Why is this person

Feeling the gaze of people, I slowly opened my mouth.

“I am here to report the atrocities committed by the current emperor, His Majesty Leuclid.”
“What?”

The corner of the emperor’s eyes twitched as he looked down at me.
It was a completely different face from the one he had just smiled leisurely.

“What did you mean by that? Minister?”
“This is more comfortable than saying it with my own mouth.”

I took out a small mana stone from my chest.

-That’s why I cut off that tongue that dared to scorn the emperor and make fun of me. I blinded the eyes that saw things outside this world, and the ears that heard things of the other world. And imprisoned in the dungeon

The words the emperor had told me in the past burst out into the world through the mana stone.
What she did to the Empress, her self her, were the words she confessed with her mouth her.
The nobles were horrified to hear of the many tortures the emperor had perpetrated on her empress.
I knew that the emperor was vicious.
Doing Her Empress Her Herself!
After hearing the story of the throwing to the guards, exclamations of anger and regret began to be heard from here and there.

“How is this?”
“What happened?”
“Is that story true?”
“It is not the voice of His Majesty the Emperor.”
“But don’t you know? Now this is the Imperial Palace. Mana doesn’t work…”

The imperial palace where mana does not work.
At that, everyone’s eyes turned to me.
In the imperial palace full of mana rifts, not only magic but also mana stones could not be activated properly.
Okay. Mana stones do not activate.

“Could it be an error?”

A noble of the imperial faction threw a question at me.
The emperor was speechless.
You wouldn’t have thought that I would spit out the secret that only I had told you here.
He was glaring at me with bloodshot eyes, seized by a sense of betrayal.

“Do you think it was an error?”

I said, looking at the noble who asked the question.
And this time, he took out a new mana stone.

“It is the same thing. It’s a recording device.”

-Could it be an error?

The mana stone was shining and the nobleman’s horse just came out.

“Uh, why?”

Everyone looked at me with a puzzled voice.
Numerous books I found when I went to the dungeon of Lilith, the transcendent body of the succubus.
I read that among the magic that was lost in the past, there is a mana stone that can use mana even in a mana rift.
When the emperor found it and confessed what she had done to her empress her, it was now the mana stone that she secretly recorded.

“Uh, how?”

Everyone in the seat looked at me in bewilderment at the clearly visible performance of the mana stone.

“If this voice is not enough, I will give you the relevant evidence. Your majesty.”
“Where is the empress?”

The emperor bit his teeth and glared at me.

“Are you worried now? Her Majesty her, whom she tore and broke.”
“Speak. Where is she, I asked!”
“Currently, he is taking a break outside the capital for recuperation.”
“Maurice Dmitry! You bastard dog!”

Bang!
The emperor took down the throne.
His eyes at me were full of anger.

“Are you betraying me?”

Was the anger over the betrayal burning through?
Or was it that he was ashamed to have his private parts his exposed?
The emperor, unable to make a rational decision, drew his sword and rose from the throne.

Such a violent reaction.
It was no different than an act of acknowledging one’s actions of his.
To the point where I don’t have to give any additional evidence.

“Your majesty!”

Duke Solarion hurriedly stood up and stopped the emperor.

“Fix it, please. There are many eyes to see.”
“Duke Solarion! You’d better get out of the way. Because I intend to kill that traitor now!”
“Your majesty!”

The emperor looked at me with bloodshot eyes.
Those bloody eyes that are red.
I’ve seen it often
Although it was usually more of excitement than anger.

“Your Majesty, none of the previous emperors harmed Her Majesty with their own hands. If the emperor is the sun of the empire, then the empress is the moon of the empire.”

I said to the emperor with a soft smile.

“The damage to the moon of the empire cannot be overlooked no matter how much the emperor is called. I think we should thoroughly investigate and discuss the punishment.”
“Maurice! I will kill you with my own hands!”
“Your Majesty, haven’t you been enjoying yourself? Now you must be punished.”

The Emperor will not be dethroned because of this.
However, many voices will come out from within the imperial faction.
There was a line that even an emperor who was famous for his cruelty should not cross.
One of them is touching the empress, the emperor’s spouse.
There will be voices asking if the emperor can be trusted, and there will also be those who break away.
It meant the same as weakening the Emperor’s power.
That was the purpose of this accusation.
In the future, revealing to the nobles that I have become the emperor’s enemy, and at the same time causing internal strife among the emperor’s faction.

“What kind of guys dare to punish the Emperor of the Empire!”

The emperor wielded his sword as if he had lost his temper and writhed.
If the sword had not been blocked by Duke Solarion, several of the nobles would have run away by now.

“What would you like? Duke Solarion.”
“What do you mean?”

There was anger in the voice of Duke Solarion as he spoke to me.

“Isn’t it Duke Solarion’s responsibility to create a special investigation team to investigate the imperial family? Surely you’re not trying to condone this just because you’re from the imperial faction?”
“Maybe you, Maurice, have been hiding your sword all this time.”
“Of course.”

If the establishment of a special investigation team is rejected, the cause of the emperor faction will sink to the bottom.
Is it the worst or the worst?
Solarion had to choose the better of them.

“Good. Let’s create and investigate.”
“Duke Solarion, even you!”

The emperor, who seemed already to have lost his temper, shouted in anger at Solarion’s choice his.

“I will apply for the investigation team, so please put me on the list.”
“… OK.”

With this, my business is over.
If more of these weapons had been collected, they could have been used as lethal weapons capable of dethroning the emperor.
However, it was necessary to shake the internal forces of the imperial faction, which were getting stronger.

‘It’s enough to get a new weapon to dethrone.’

You’ll just have to find a weapon that’s stronger than the one you have now.
His first steps as the head of the aristocratic faction were successful.

“I don’t think we are in a position to hold more meetings. I’ll just go for it.”

I left the running emperor behind and went to Daejeon.
Ronald followed me out.
And a number of quick-witted aristocrats followed after him.

Everyone present here would have known.
Who is the head of the new aristocratic faction?

***

The tension was relieved, and I let out a sigh.

“My head hurts.”

As I rode the carriage back to the mansion, I clutched my throbbing forehead.
Now, I’m going to build a confrontation with the emperor in earnest.
It was clear that troublesome things would happen in the future.
I returned to the mansion safely.

“Well?”

Passing by the garden, I found Emir at the porch of our mansion.

“What is going on?”
“Uh, huh?”

Emir, who was fidgeting in front of the mansion, saw me and stuttered his words with a puzzled face.

“Wasn’t it the day we entered the temple?”
“That, that… I decided not to go in.”
“Why?”

Emir didn’t answer and averted his gaze.
For a while too.

“Being strong, you said it would help. I can teach you.”
“Ah.”
“That’s why I came.”
“Even with Bartram?”
“Because Maurice is stronger than Bartram.”
“Solarion and Dmitri…”
“When learning the sword, please don’t think about my identity. Please just consider me as a disciple receiving Maurice’s teachings.”
“Is that your conclusion?”
“Yes.”

I looked at Emir’s face intently.
Dark circles under the eyes of his were thick, perhaps because he had been worrying all night.
Saying this, how much did you think about making this decision?
She was the one who had lived her entire life as her Solarion.
It wouldn’t have been an easy decision.

“I get it. What are you going to do with Prince Solarion’s objection?”
“That, there is a way.”
“I get it. Then, start learning the sword tomorrow.”
“Yes, I understand.”

Emir’s face brightened.

“Would you like to have a cup of tea? You look tired.”
“No. Today I came to say this. It’s important to progress step by step.”
“I get it. To do so.”

Emir’s steps on the way back seemed light.
Is it because of my mood that I can hear her hum her?

While looking at Emir’s back her, I raised my head at her gaze that I felt somewhere.
And there.

There was Seria, leaning against her window, glaring at me and Emir.
