Chapter 90: Chapter 090 Imperial Blade Chapter 90: Chapter 090 Imperial Blade Horace’s eyes sparkled with light, aware of the sense of unreality that pervaded him.
He simply couldn’t equate the Lin Fu on the screen with the Lin Fu he had seen at the Commander’s ho—they seed like two different people.
Bernard also appeared to be still trapped in a dream. He, alongside Horace and Monger, were the only three in the Eighth Fleet who knew Lin Fu’s true identity, and they were aware that no one else in the fleet acknowledged her.
Just like the opinions on the Star Network, she was deed unworthy of being with the Commander.
Horace had thought the sa in the past, but now he just wanted to slap himself for it.
The butler, on the other hand, was cunning and strategic, with a keen eye for people.

Lin Fu flexed her intact hands and noticed that even though her bodily injuries had healed, her strength hadn’t returned.
Neither had her sight or hearing.
This indicated that the loss of spiritual power was real, not simulated.
The realization weighed down her heart for a mont, but she quickly cast it aside.
She could still launch one final strike.
And it would be her strongest blow.
In her past life, it was with this strike that she had killed the cri syndicate’s leader, at the cost of her own life.
Lin Fu closed her eyes and began to visualize the weapon in her mind.
She wasn’t sure if the system had this capability, but since she’d managed to activate a hidden boon earlier, she was optimistic that reconstructing her weapon should be feasible.
Lin Fu’s actions aroused everyone’s curiosity, until two crimson blades began to materialize in her hands.
All watched, transfixed, as the two blood-colored longswords took form, from nothingness into reality.
“Bang Bang Bang!!!”
Xia Zeming, who had remained out of sight throughout his tenure as the principal, had always been attentive from afar. Now, however, he was startled into standing up abruptly.
“Is that… Could that be the Imperial Blade?”
Xia Zeming’s gaze was locked onto the blades in Lin Fu’s hands, his disbelief palpable.
It wasn’t just him—Fu Tian, Song Zheng, and Nolan from the simulation building inhaled sharply in unison. Their reactions caused a stir among those around them.
“The Imperial Blade!” Nolan couldn’t help exclaiming.
Fu Tian muttered to himself, “The lost Imperial Blade… how could big sister construct it?”
Song Zheng glanced at Fu Tian with a puzzled look, wondering to himself what Lin Fu’s real identity could be that allowed her to create the Imperial Blade within the simulation.
Ordinary people had never even laid eyes on this legendary pair of weapons.
They had only heard of the famous Imperial Blades from textbooks, a symbol of the cklenburg Royal Family; the empire’s highest award, the Dual Blades Guardian dal, was modeled after the Imperial Blade.
Many legends surrounded the Imperial Blade, but the most famous was that it belonged to Odin I, the greatest Emperor of the cklenburg Empire.
The blade was his lifelong companion, only to disappear during a royal family feud.
It beca an enduring sorrow for the Royal Family, with many mbers making it their life’s goal to find the Imperial Blade.
But news of the Imperial Blade’s disappearance was only known to the Royal Family and a few nobles. Not to ntion Lin Fu from a remote star system—ninety-nine percent of the population on Capital Star were ignorant of it and hadn’t seen the actual weapon.

Theresa, who had just returned to the Imperial Palace from the Royal Starship Academy, recognized it imdiately—it was also one of her goals to find the Imperial Blade, for every mber of the Royal Family was taught to search for it from childhood. If she really found it, she would certainly gain the support of all family mbers.
But she knew it was a difficult quest and had only made a half-hearted effort in arranging the search. Yet, she was astounded that Lin Fu, a lowly commoner, dared to wield the Imperial Blade so brazenly.
Even a simulated one was out of the question.
“Damn it! Who gave her the audacity?”
Theresa was truly furious, no longer able to maintain her facade of elegance and pride.
