84 – The Empire’s Circumstances (4)

Irene watched the window of the fast-moving carriage with her chin on her chin.

I didn’t know what she was thinking. She just seemed a bit bored. Said Louis, who seemed to know the cause of her boredom.

“…… Are you mad?”

Amelia, who was sitting in the same stiff posture as Louis, looked at Irene with a flinch.

“Huh?”

But Irene smiled brightly, as if it hadn’t been since I made such a face.

‘That’s scarier.’

“Dried.”

Amelia won the duel, and Irene really wanted to kill everyone.

Her appearance was like a reaper trying to harvest her life as promised.

Ruid stopped it because it didn’t seem like killing him. Irene didn’t like her, but when she stopped herself, she put her sword back as if she couldn’t help it.

It’s been that way ever since.

“A little?”

Irene said playfully.

She rested her chin on her back and looked out her window. She said with a blank expression.

“I think my younger siblings sometimes feel stuffy. Even though Louis is young.”

Irene looked at Amelia with a strange smile again.

“Why did my dear Amelia do that?”

“I’m sorry. Sister.”

“Honestly, I thought two or three were already dead. But not killing anyone. Our cute Leah is so nice.”

In front of Irene, Amelia was a squat. She was still holding her knees and bowing her head.

Seeing that, Irene opened her mouth.

“Windsor’s status is declining from generation to generation.”

“… !”

“The patriarch said that no one dared to make eye contact during the exam. These days, more and more aristocrats are looking straight into my eyes. Much worse than 7 years ago. Probably forgotten For ordinary people and nobles, Windsor is too far away.”

Irene cooked and stabbed Louis on the cheek.

“The time has come to show it. Louie.”

Ruid stared blankly at Irene.

“To those who have forgotten her Windsor, what a Windsor is. Noona wants it to start with Ruid’s magic.”

He looked quite serious.

But Irene smiled brightly as if she had always been like that.

“Joke. There’s no way I’m thinking of conquering the world or overthrowing the empire.”

“Well, if I do that, where am I going to sleep?”

“My arms?”

Ruid’s complexion turned pale.

Just in time, the carriage stopped.

But Irene didn’t move.

“I won’t go anymore.”

“Wait a little longer.”

Ruid felt sad inside. She hadn’t come in a long time and she wanted to stay a little longer.

Irene stroked Louis’ head and shook her head.

“You shouldn’t empty it for too long. I left a letter and came here in a hurry. Griffin, if you starve any more than this, you’ll die. Then you have to walk.”

‘Isn’t that a bit harsh?’

She must have come riding a griffin.

Irene took Louise off her wagon.

“Goodbye.”

“My sister, please go in carefully.”

“Goodbye sister.”

Ruid, who was about to enter her mansion after waving her hand, felt a cold current and looked behind her.

‘It’s like a strange madness.’

However, Irene was just waving with an angelic face.

‘I didn’t feel well.’

Ruid shook her hand once more and looked at her mansion.

“Haaam.”

“Are you sleepy?”

“Yes. It’s because I’ve been working hard lately.”

I turned on the thick stretch. She couldn’t see her steps, but Amelia caught her just as she was about to fall.

But Louise’s drowsiness had already turned on and she began to doze off.

Louis thought without rejecting her pouring sleep.

‘Can I sleep comfortably at the academy again tomorrow?’

I didn’t know- That was really not a bad day.

**

The day Louis de froze half of her imperial family.

A government meeting was held in the empire.

An honorable place to discuss important matters of the empire.

The nobles slowly brought up the topic.

“What should I do with this?”

“The relationship with Windsor is very important to the future of the Empire. If they abandon the northern castle and come, the empire will have no justification to stop it, and precious talents of the empire will be sacrificed to stop that many monsters.”

Soon the arrow returned to the emperor.

“How did you give such an order to those who work diligently without paying anything?”

That’s all right.

The relationship with Windsor is important.

The reason why successive emperors lived without a gap with Windsor was because they liked the family itself, but basically it was the importance of the name ‘Windsor’.

“… Heh heh, I heard that the theory of Windsor’s futility has been popping up among young aristocrats these days.

However, the reason they talked about Windsor was not because they were really worried about the future of the empire.

Not too long ago, it was pointed out that he was too considerate of Windsor.

Their purpose is clear.

“Your Majesty, in the first place, this problem happened because Your Majesty personally possessed the powerful force of the Teutonic Knights.”

A check on the emperor.

“Every time I gave them an order- if I had held a noble meeting, this wouldn’t have happened.”

“That is why it is called. Your Majesty, please allow the Teutonic Order’s operational command to be moved through the Noble Council. This is based on the will of His Majesty the first emperor, ‘no human being can be perfect’.”

Command of the Teutons, the strongest knights in the Empire.

Ultimately, the weakening of the imperial authority.

‘Your Majesty, the first emperor, always puts me in trouble.’

The first emperor said.

No great human being is perfect.

Thus, he divided his mighty power and distributed it to the nobles, and created an organization called the Noble Council to keep the emperor in check.

In other words, the emperor was not in a position to boast of omnipotence. The first emperor who founded this prime empire made it that way.

Even with this meeting right now, the emperor could only refuse, but he couldn’t go ahead with what he wanted.

The consent of the nobility is required. Even refusal is greatly condemned if there is no justification for it.

For example, continuing to reject the proposals proposed by the emperor.

Lucius smiled bitterly.

The imperial authority of Lucius’ generation was quite stable. Among the members of the noble council, the imperial faction was less than half.

Besides, since Lucius was a perfect blood without blemish, he didn’t even deserve a reason to check him.

In fact, before this incident, there were few nobles who opposed Lucius’ agenda.

However.

‘If you show a gap, you’ll immediately show your teeth.’

In this situation, Lucius has few choices.

There was no best. However, there was a lesser evil.

Attracting the third force.

That was Lucius’ choice.

The door to the Great Temple opened. The knight guarding the door shouted with a trembling voice.

“Ah, Irene, the Duke of Windsor, has arrived.”

The condition of the noble meeting is to be an aristocrat with a position that everyone can recognize.

Windsor fits that, and has the right to participate in the Noble Council.

However, I have never participated in it for hundreds of years.

Lucius solemnly opened his mouth.

“Stop by.”

The eyes of all the nobles in the conference hall were directed to one place.

In the midst of countless gazes, Irene entered with a strange smile.

In her right hand, she was holding a bag of blood dripping, and her left hand was still so that she could draw a sword at any time.

The presence she scattered took the breath away of the aristocrats.

Irene stood in front of the emperor. As if she was kind, she looked at the emperor clearly.

She prostrates herself on one knee in her slow motion.

“Irene Windsor, I have arrived here by Your Majesty’s command.”

“Up, Windsor.”

Gulp-

They swallowed.

This was the first time most had seen the real Windsor.

“Welcome. What do you have in your hand?”

Lucius said clearly. Irene replied with a smile.

“I don’t think you’re happy with the gift I received last time – I’m worried.”

Irene stood up from her seat and said.

“I brought you a new gift.”

“Very interesting.”

Lucius’s eyes fell.

“Yes. Take it out What is it?”

Lucius knew what was in the bag.

She hadn’t experienced it before, so she wasn’t particularly surprised.

Irene didn’t answer for a moment, then she said, glancing at the nobles.

“However, my thoughts have changed. I was having a meeting outside. This gift should be shared with everyone.”

It is disrespectful to listen to the meetings of the noble council. However, none of them could express her displeasure to Irene Windsor.

She is dangerous.

When a normal person sees Irene, she is a thought that naturally pops into her head.

“The Teutonic Knights’ right to design.”

Irene turned her back to the table.

From noble mtl dot com

“It’s difficult.”

“… !”

The aristocrat who first put the matter in her mouth shrank.

“Because.”

Irene stretched out her hand on her table with a quiet laugh.

She lifted her bundle upside down and spilled the contents.

Took-

With a crushing sound, some nobles retched.

It was a human face.

The face of a person who has become a wreck.

Charon, Maximus.

“I just came to kill the vice-captain of the Teutonic Knights.”

“… ….”

“I’m sorry, what should I do? What kind of gift should I prepare as a sign of apology?”

Irene smiled brightly.

She put her hands behind her back and took about two steps back. She lightly turned her body to the emperor and bowed her back.

“I propose as an agent for the Duke of Windsor.”

“… Speak.”

“The Teutonic Knights committed a great sin this time. Pointing a sword at an escort is a felony. First of all, only one person was dealt with, but the rest of the people who were not stopped are also guilty. Originally, it was appropriate to kill all of them- but the victims didn’t want that, so I’m suggesting it.”

Irene straightened her back.

She said with an expressionless face.

“The Duke of Windsor wants the dissolution of the Teutonic Knights.”

“… ….”

The important thing was to secure a ‘strong’ force that could be operated ‘freely’ without going through the Nobility Council.

Disbanding the Knights was rather what Lucius wished for. It’s the Knights, because you can create a new one. That way you can get off this agenda and bury this mistake.

Perhaps Irene was aiming for that too.

However, Lucius felt a sense of mystery.

Reduced from dozens of necks to one neck.

As if he didn’t want more than that, he prevented the imperial power from weakening.

Still, I can’t help but doubt Irene Windsor’s intentions.

‘The way things are handled is too cruel.’

Her actions were not what a normal person would do.

Even if you look at the documents of Windsor, there was no such successor.

That’s why Lucius didn’t want Irene to be his successor.

She is the one who will bring about countless bloody storms.

People She considers her life worse than insects, and the number of people she has killed cannot be counted.

It’s a talent that couldn’t be greater if it was during the war, but it can’t be welcomed in an era of peace like now.

Lucius said while hiding those feelings deep inside.

“Good. Irene decides to accept Windsor’s offer. Any objection to this?”

The nobles bowed their heads. As if he didn’t want to offend Irene.

Lucius smiled.

He looked at Irene and said.

“Give thanks to the Duke of Windsor. Thank you for handling an embarrassing situation.”

“No, because I am a loyalist going to Windsor.”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

However, a knife is hidden behind that smile.

‘The heir to the House of Windsor must be Amelia Windsor. Perhaps this could separate the life and death of the empire.’

An idea I had been thinking about before.

Through this incident, Lucius had such an awareness embedded in his brain.
