Delaina, who had been talking for a while, stopped. The sa goes for Duke Hyman. He put down his cooled tea cup and nodded to the escort driver. It's an important eting, so I told you not to disturb anyone..
They walked to the door, holding their swords at their waists..
“what's going on?”
“This is Chielonia from the administration. I have co to deliver to Delina the order passed at the general eting..”
“Command?”
Delaina muttered unconsciously and stood up. Wasn't the Pri Minister's eting for the purpose of restoring the imperial palace? But he said it was an order given to him. Unable to guess, he was puzzled and anxious. Arsene glanced at his mother's complexion and whispered:.
“It would be better if you move your seat and listen..”
It was an opportunity to join forces with Duke Hyman and plan for the future. However, if an order unfavorable to Delaina suddenly cos from the imperial palace, problems may arise..
Delaina nodded and asked Hyman and lania for understanding..
“Excuse for a mont.”
“no. Don't mind it..”
Arsene also smiled and followed his mother..
Cielonia, an administrative official who mainly conveys the emperor's orders. She was bending over and holding a golden letter. The emperor is lying frozen, so it must have been made by the pri minister acting on his behalf..
This is an order that uses the authority of the emperor, not the authority of the pri minister. Delaina took a lead, struggling to catch her breath..
“Follow . I will receive it in a separate room..”
Squeak.
Arriving in the separate room, Delaina turned gracefully and looked at Cielonia. Well, it looks like he wants to hear what the orders were from the grand council..
“This is an order restricting so of Jin’s parental rights..”
“……!”
As Chielonia spoke carefully, Delaina's mouth suddenly hardened. Her chin dropped from her haughty lift, and the knuckles of her fingers stood out as she held the hem of her dress. Her embarrassnt was clearly felt, but Cielonia read her letter regardless..
-Concubine Delaina was able to recognize that the main culprits who disturbed the imperial family were Prince Marib and Gayle. It is also possible to judge that this is a crisis for the imperial family, and it is obvious that it was a mistake to hand over Prince Qin's new recruit, whatever the reason, in this situation..
“……!”
-Accordingly, at the request of Prince Jin and the attendees of the competition, so of the parental rights given to Delina are temporarily restricted indefinitely. The details are as follows. Right to protection and identity. Property managent. Power of attorney, etc. These are the nine main provisions. Additionally, any authority that may affect the prince's health will be imdiately restricted..
gone.
Chielonia bowed after reading the entire letter. She suddenly noticed that Arsene was staring at , but it seed like he was smiling, so it was difficult to face him..
Delaina, who was shaking her hands, couldn't hold back and scread..
“It can't be like this.!”
“Please fix it. Dear Delina.”
“Jin, Jin is my son! Who, and by what authority, can take my parental rights away from ? It can't be like this! Call a general eting imdiately! Order to regroup!”
“I'm sorry, but you cannot object..”
“Where is the Pri Minister now??!”
Soone who knows that His Majesty is frozen makes this decision.?!
Delaina felt as if her senses were about to disappear due to the anger rising to the top of her head. This is my child who was born with a stomach ache. This is my son, whom I have embraced since the mont he was born.!
“Ugh…….”
Delina eventually sat down and covered her face. If possible, I would like to turn back ti. Before I let go of Jin's hand, before I t Mariv in the backyard, or even before, to the days when the emperor was healthy..
Sigh.
Arsene gave Cielonia a look telling her to go out and hugged his mother. Although he is a child, he sohow looks very adult, which is strange. Cielonia quietly walked out the door, collecting her letters..
“mother.”
Despite Arsene's calls, Delina continued to cry. Arsene's voice is sweet as he hugs her tightly. The expression reflected in the window is extrely cold. Delaina lowered her head and couldn't tell..
“Mother did nothing wrong. Who knew Jin would be like this? We thought we were her family, but I guess Jin didn't..”
As Arsene's comforting words reached her ears, Delaina instantly felt like her head was spinning. Could it be that she suddenly burst into tears and felt dizzy? Her vision beca blurry, but Arsene's voice gradually beca more clearly embedded in her mind. Each note seed to seep into her blood and penetrate her whole body..
“Arsene, I, I…….”
“I know. mother. I know. Saving was the way to save Jin. Foolish younger brother, unaware of his mother's feelings.”
“Maybe it's good. It seems that Jin has firmly fallen for Sir Ian. I can't turn around like this in an instant. Jin Eun, Jin Eun…….”
“You need to co to your senses from now on. Mother, we must win to save Jin. You know that if I strengthen my position, Jin will also beco safer.?”
Delaina kept nodding as she felt the warm comfort lting away. Arsene smiled slightly as he patted his mother..
“And there are many who witnessed that mont. It was sothing that would be revealed at so point, and it was sothing that was going to happen. Don't be heartbroken. Even if Jin abandons us, we will not abandon Jin. Soday the truth will reach .”
Delaina wiped away her tears and hugged Arsene tightly..
There is no emperor, and there is no Jin. Now all that's left is Arsene. Only Arsene can bring the peace that Delaina seeks..
“Sort out your tears. Lord Hyman needs to finish. Soon the gates will open, and when that happens, every mont will appear as a crisis, an opportunity, and a result..”
Delaina took a breath, dabbing her tears with a handkerchief. He wanted to run out right away and protest against the decision of the great council and et Jin, but he needed to be patient..
“Now, maybe it would be good. What did Hyman say??”
Delaina felt like an idiot for the plan she had shared with the duke all night. Even if he tried to recall it, he couldn't. I don't know if it's the shock that Jin left , or the constant dizziness. Arsene held his mother's trembling body and pointed it out..
“Duke Hyman said that once the gates were opened, he would plant people among the people of the empire..”
“Ah, yes.”
The truth is complete in itself, but it is easily tainted by lies. Isn’t this a perfect situation to portray Ian as an opportunist who got mixed up in Marib and Gayle’s rebellion? Now that Jin's parental rights have been taken away, the rumors will gain even more weight..
“First of all, you said you would drive public opinion and monitor the situation..”
Delaina didn't seem to know that her teeth were chattering. Arsene, who was watching this calmly, quietly added to her words..
“But mother. The duke's suggestion isn't bad, but I'm not sure..”
“Well, what does that an??”
While Delaina and Hyman were talking, Arsene didn't say a word. He just sits upright and watches. The duke also did not bother to ask for his opinion. He was also a child, and it seed like all decisions were made by Delina..
“Duke Hyman's plan works best when the castle gates are closed. Since you don't know what's going on inside, you're touching the most provocative thing imaginable. However, judging by the progress of the settlent and Sir Ian's will, won't the castle gate be opened soon??”
That way, those who entered the palace will have the ability to judge the situation by seeing and hearing it for themselves. In other words, just as the status of the Ministry of Magic increased in the imperial palace, it can also create a positive perception among the people of the empire..
“No matter how many people shout out that Sir Ian lured Jin away, most people won't care. I contributed to the restoration of the imperial palace, and in so ways, it can be seen as a deserved reward..”
“then?”
Delina asked blankly. Little by little, her dizziness was subsiding. Arsene's voice penetrated my ears even more clearly..
“I have to cross the line.”
“What is a line? we?”
“No, Sir Ian..”
Far outside the window, the Bariel flag was waving majestically. Arsene saw that in his eyes and muttered while suppressing his laughter..
“What if Sir Ian kills either Mariv or Gale??”
It would be perfect before the trial opens..
Delaina frowned as if she didn't understand, but soon let out a small exclamation and whispered..
“Let's kill him?”
“mother. Be careful what you say. I wonder what ‘Kyung Ian’ would do then..”
Then there will be plenty of talk. He died because the interrogation was close to torture. In fact, the prince was innocent, but he was killed to cover it up. The princes fell for Ian's trick and died, etc..
“Hasn't Sir Ian always been close to both Mariv and Gale? It's perfect for lighting a fire..”
If blood is mixed with lies to color the truth, it cannot be easily erased. Because it is a very strong paint that has caught soone's breath..
Delaina was silent as she looked at her son's face shining in the sunlight..
“And there is no greater acknowledgnt of power than giving the power to dispose of Marib and Gale to Sir Ian. Let us kill him before he kills us..”
“Arsene.”
“yes. mother.”
How on earth did you co up with such a thought?.
I couldn't bear to ask. How could the words of killing her brother co out of the mouth of a ten-year-old child so easily? It's all a tragedy created by circumstances..
Delaina hugged Arsene and made a promise..
“Let's finish. Let's finish it quickly and save Jin..”
“of course. mother.”
Arsene was smiling even brighter as he answered that. The warm sun shone down, but the inside of the wall sparkled coldly..
* * *
“Ian. A magic seal stone was found in the abode of Emperor Mariv. There are two of them, one of 3 grams and one of 5 grams each. It is consistent with the computer data registered with the administration. Next, we collected letters exchanged with the top. There is quite a lot of it so it will take so ti to analyze it..”
“how much?”
“Since they were connected to caravans that traveled to and from Bariel, a list of about 50 nas was compiled based on a rough guess. The acquisition route of the amber gemstone is still being tracked..”
Ian nodded in satisfaction and made the paynt. The office door had been wide open for several hours with no sign of closing. There was an endless number of people coming in and out, so Ian sorted out a mountain of docunts in the cold wind..
“Where have I seen that before?.”
Unlike Ian, who was distracted, Beric lay on one side of the sofa and watched. Romandro, who had been playing with his pen so much that his arm was not visible, cried out loudly..
“I'm so busy, please help !”
“Ah, I rembered! Sotis, when a famous traveling band cos by, everyone lines up to get their autographs. That's it, that's it. Kyakya.”
“That guy is really!”
“I can't read. I just laid down after carrying my luggage.?”
“What is baggage? Is a pile of paper a burden to you??”
Beric stuck out his tongue and lied down. At that ti, I heard a voice confirming with Ian from a distance in the hallway..
“Ian! Is the gate opening at 5pm today??”
“okay. right.”
Five o'clock. It's just past ten in the morning, so I have so ti. Ian pointed a pen at Beric, who was lying down, and gave an order..
“Don't lie down, try standing up. Berwick.”
“? why?”
“The gates open at 5 o'clock, so go out first and say hello to Vivianna before then, and pass this on to her. Then she will ask Vivianna to go to the press office, and she will be escorted well so that there are no problems..”
Ian threw a short note, and Beric caught it lightly with one hand. I don't know what's written because I can't read the text..
“What is this??”
“You don't have to know. Go to Vivianna first..”
“Um, okay, okay. I was already bored, but it turned out well..”
Romandro, who was listening next to , frowned as if he was distrustful..
“You know the way?”
“Ah, then! I may not know anything else, but I know ho.!”
“Still, I'll give you an expense..”
Beric grinned, drawing circles with his fingers. Through the gaps between his hands, he caught a glimpse of the contents of the note Ian had written, but Romandro just rubbed his eyes as if he had made a mistake..
