Chapter 459: 426, There is moonlight in the sky, and there is starlight, and she is the third light in the world!
Charles and Antonio, eting up with Anne in Rahma, marched in haste and, just a few days before the coronation, returned to Strasbourg!
As the new Earl of Brittany, Antonio, upon returning to Strasbourg, was imdiately called away by the court ceremony officials for training.
Charles and Anne, however, were surrounded by another group of people tasked with preparing their attire for attending the coronation ceremony.
The new Emperor of Fars, the first emperor of the Brittany Dynasty to be enthroned, placed great importance on the ceremony, with no room for the slightest error from top to bottom.
Charles did not even return to either of his residences, but instead moved directly into the Imperial Palace, just a few hundred steps away from where Anne was staying.
...
They even managed to see each other every day, which was an ultimate honor.
In his previous life, Charles was just an ordinary math teacher, and in this life, he was nothing more than a commoner from a rchant family.
When he split from his family, his brother had been very generous and bold, but had only divided a few hundred Gold Aegeus, barely enough to buy a property in Strasbourg.
Compared to the well-established nobility of the Brittany Family and the soon-to-be Royal Brittany Family, he still ca from a very low background.
Charles did not even have a formal suit; his usual clothes were quite common and civilian.
The last ti he attended the funeral of Mrs.
Nanny Brittany Axel, his suit had been borrowed from Anne’s father’s wardrobe, which even bore the Brittany Family’s emblem.
Therefore, for the Emperor’s coronation, it was essential for him to have a few tailor-made suits.
Moreover, they couldn’t be ordinary suits, as he was Earl cklen, a noble of the Empire, lending to an especially complex style.
Apart from the suit, Charles had to design a new family emblem.
The cklen Family was originally nothing more than common rchants, definitely not nobility.
Charles rembered that the cklen family didn’t even have an emblem, and if they did, it couldn’t be used anymore; it had to be entirely custom-made.
Designing an emblem was a massive task, and with such short notice, it was impossible to start from scratch.
With the tacit approval of His Majesty Brittany, it was decided to directly use the emblem of Prince Redmiel Axel as the basis, adding the mark of the Brittany Family.
This symbolized that the cklen Family would have the royal bloodline of two dynasties.
Yes, Anne would carry the bloodline of both the Axel and Brittany families.
Indeed, the cklen Family’s emblem would also be the golden pheasant’s tail flower!
Encircling the golden pheasant’s tail flower was a small silver serpent!
This was one of the Brittany Family’s emblem marks.
The Brittany Family had venerated the Serpent of Destiny for generations, with even their family graveyard being located in the Temple of the Serpent of Destiny.
Beyond the suit, Charles also had to suffer through all sorts of tedious court rituals.
Although it irked him, as a math teacher, he could calculate precisely that being compliant was the optimal solution for the ti being.
On the day before the ceremony began, he finally t His Majesty Brittany!
The Old Earl was still not in high spirits.
He summoned his son, his daughter, and Charles for a simple dinner.
This was his last ordinary family dinner before becoming Emperor.
Looking at his son, the Old Earl felt imnsely satisfied.
He had never expected that after a single rebellion-suppressing mission, his son would ascend to the sa level as himself, becoming a peak of the Sacred Order and even receiving the blessing of Lady Black Moon, which gifted him the sacred weapon—Dark Moon!
Turning to Anne, he found himself at a loss for words once again.
The Old Earl could still rember the tis he had furiously polished his Hurkweil Silver Rhino Mk-10, wishing to shoot a certain rascal dead.
Yet, this scoundrel had…
forcefully pried open the Old Earl’s fingers and arrogantly snatched away his most beloved daughter, without ever saying a word of thanks from start to finish.
Looking again at Charles, his irritation was mixed with a slight preference!
No one can refuse the prodigal son returning!
The al was quite oppressive.
Only after the last champagne was served did the Old Earl of Brittany say faintly, “Antonio, take good care of your sister in the future.”
He glanced at his daughter with a complex expression and said softly, “Anne!
Mama Karen will accompany you and take care of you for !”
Anne was a little surprised, then filled with joy.
She had been cared for by Mama Karen since she was young.
Now that she was leaving her ho at 58 Sixth Avenue, she felt sowhat uneasy.
Having Mama Karen with her gave her much comfort.
Lastly, the old earl looked at Charles and asked, “Can you tell why you’ve changed so drastically after eting Anne?”
Charles said in a low voice, “Perhaps you can’t understand, I’m just an ordinary person from a rchant family, and my talents are very ordinary.
I didn’t even attain Transcendence during my university days, and after graduation, I only got a position at the Central Governnt Office, but that was just a first-level clerk.”
“According to the empire’s promotion system, if everything went smoothly in my life, I could expect to be promoted to a second or third-level Clerk Chief by the age of fifty!
No higher possibilities beyond that!”
“After all, my background is really not strong enough to support going any further.”
“What’s more, I got involved in a murder case at that ti!”
“As everyone knows, my boss, Miss nilman, hates a certain type of man profoundly.”
“I was extrely worried at the ti, fearing the loss of my job.”
“When Anne appeared, there was moonlight, and there were stars.
She was the third source of light in the world!”
“Lighting up all the shadows in my heart.”
“I thought that we were just ships that pass in the night, inevitably missing each other.”
“I swore to the Serpent of Destiny, if I could et Miss Anne again…”
“I would pluck the brightest star from the sky for her!”
Antonio’s eyes shone brilliantly as he said softly, “Those are truly beautiful words.”
The old earl sneered coldly, and the killing intent that hadn’t stirred for a long ti almost burst forth again.
He was seventy to eighty percent certain that Charles cklen, that bastard, was lying, but he had no evidence.
If Charles knew what the old earl was thinking, he would surely tell his prospective father-in-law not to harbor such divisive thoughts!
Right then, he was regretting that on the night he t Anne, why had there been no snow falling from the sky?
His heart silently lanted, “Had it snowed that day, Mister Yu Guangzhong, you would have been utterly useful.
Compared to your original verse, the things I’ve changed are quite a mismatched ga indeed!”
Anne stretched out her little hand and quietly held Charles’s, but silently in her heart she murmured a thanks: “Thank you, Aunt Sophie!”
“She truly is the best aunt in the world.”
“Without her, I wouldn’t even know what kind of treasures I’d have missed!”
“Had it not been for her, my life would have been different.”
“Without her, I could never have seen such dazzling scenery in the world.”
“From now on, every year I will take Mister klen to pay respects to her.”
Yes, this ti it was very Anne.
