Episode 121 I’m confident I won’t get there
Not much happened to us while we departed from the Kingdom of Sergel and headed to the Eckhart Empire.
After about 20 days, our party arrived at the southern gate of Deleson, the capital of the Eckhart Empire.
The leader of the southern city gate recognized our group and ran straight to the imperial carriage and saluted.
“I meet Her Majesty Empress Cecilia, Mother of the Empire. Loyalty!”
“Hmm. Okay. “Please open the door right now.”
Cecilia responded by nodding her head once.
The gate commander quickly returned to the southern gate. Eventually, the heavy iron door slowly opened.
“Finally, I’m back home.”
Cecilia’s tone was filled with subtle joy and excitement.
Immediately after she finished her remarks, her carriage moved forward again. After a while, our group passed through the southern gate.
“It was a long journey.”
Mulia, who was sitting next to her, spoke in a low voice.
“I have made many happy memories in the Kingdom, but I think home is the best!”
Flora, sitting next to me, had a smiling face. Well, after spending such a long time in the kingdom, I guess I missed Deleson.
“You too, Luke? The streetscape, the smells here and there…….”
Flora looked at me, her eyes shining brightly.
It smells… ….
I wasn’t really conscious of it, so I tried sniffing it. It was distinctly different from the smell of the air in the Kingdom of Sergel.
“That’s definitely true. “I would have passed it by if Lady Flora hadn’t mentioned her smell.”
“Right? Actually, I’ve been feeling it since I entered the empire’s borders. “It wasn’t as strong a smell as here.”
Seeing Flora happy made me smile without even realizing it.
“Definitely Flora. “It is as you said.”
“Yes. “I’ve been feeling it for a while now.”
Cecilia and Mulia also agreed with Flora’s remarks.
The carriage we rode moved slowly along the main street. But there was something noisy outside.
You could say that you could hear a lot of people gathered together and making noise.
I turned my head out the left window and was startled. Because the streets were full of imperial people on both sides.
“Your Majesty. “The streets are full of imperialists!”
“Hmm. “I saw it too.”
Unlike me, who was excited, Cecilia looked calm as usual.
“Oh my! “Everyone seems to be welcoming us.”
Flora covered her mouth with both hands and looked moved.
“Somehow, I feel embarrassed…” ….”
Mulia lowered her gaze slightly, her cheeks turning red.
“Your Majesty. What if you waved her hand out her window? Commoners will love it!”
“Hmm. “That wouldn’t be bad either.”
Surprising?
Given Cecilia’s personality, she probably doesn’t want to stand out that much.
‘Ah, perhaps she is doing this to make her people aware of her existence?’
If there is a political calculation of its own, revealing it like this is not a bad option.
While I was thinking about this, Flora leaned out the window and waved her hand at the people.
I would say it looks extremely Flora-like.
“Lady Flora. Then it might fall.”
I warned you just in case.
“Then, Mr. Luke, please catch me then. “I’m confident he will be embraced right away.”
She turned her head this way and spoke.
Angil himself… ….
Sometimes Flora makes remarks that are difficult to understand.
“I can’t just sit still when Flora is doing that.”
Cecilia said that too and immediately put her hand out the window. However, compared to Flora, she waved her hand quite politely.
“Your Majesty the Empress!”
“Your Majesty is watching us!”
As she waved her hand, her subjects became more excited and raised their voices. Perhaps because their reaction was so explosive, a satisfied smile appeared on Cecilia’s face.
“Mulia. You should try it too. People respond well! “Luke too!”
Flora entered the carriage and looked at Mulia and me in turns.
“No. I’m embarrassed…….”
“I don’t really have any plans to do anything either.”
Flora had a sour expression on her face, but she did not suggest anything further.
“It’s fun to do this sometimes.”
Cecilia again placed her hands neatly together on her thighs. Nevertheless, outside, we could still hear the cheers of the imperial people here and there welcoming our group.
“It really feels like I’m back home.”
The maids immediately sympathized with Cecilia’s words. And I did that too.
Before I knew it, I too had been completely immersed in the atmosphere of Deleson.

The carriage arrived at the main gate of the imperial palace.
In front of the main gate, there were employees of the imperial palace, as well as nobles and the emperor. It was because Cecilia had sent her messenger to the imperial palace a few days in advance.
The carriage we rode stopped in front of the main gate. I got out of the carriage first and then escorted Cecilia and her maids to ensure they got off safely.
When Cecilia came down for the last time, those gathered at her front door all saluted her.
“Meet Her Majesty Empress Cecilia, Mother of the Empire!”
“I am so happy to see you all after such a long time.”
Cecilia accepted her greeting, and only then did people raise their heads.
I stood behind Cecilia and looked at the people, rolling her eyes here and there.
In the front row are the Duke of Montersen, the head of the aristocratic faction, and his right-hand man, the Marquis of Marlborough. And Duke Kylos, the leader of the Imperial faction, was standing side by side.
“I have to go inside first.”
Cecilia took her steps, and my maids and I followed right behind her. Then, the mission members and even the employees moved together.
As the large number of people moved, those standing in front of the main gate split to both sides like a miracle of Moses.
“Your Majesty. “God was truly relieved that we arrived safely.”
As she was about to pass through the crowd, Duke Cailos immediately joined Cecilia on her right. Then the Duke of Montersen also came to her left.
From noble mtl dot net
“Your Majesty. “What results did you achieve from your visit to the Kingdom of Sergel?”
Unlike Kylos, who first worries about Cecilia’s safety, this one asks about her performance first.
Can I say that he is extremely like the Duke of Montersen?
Even with old people clinging to her on both sides, Cecilia did not stop her steps. She spoke to them as she stared straight ahead.
“I will hold a noble meeting soon. “I’ll tell you more about the results then.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Montersen lightly bowed his head and then stepped back.
But Kylos was still following her.
“Your Majesty. “If you don’t mind, I’d like to meet you later and talk to you. How about that?”
Seeing as he was requesting an audience, it seemed like he had a lot of questions.
‘By the way, Cecilia must be tired too, will you grant my request?’
However, Cecilia gave a different answer than I expected.
“Come to the parlor in an hour.”
“Congratulations, Your Majesty.”
Only then did Kylos step back.
The two butlers guarding the entrance to the imperial palace opened the door. Thanks to this, we were able to enter the central entrance on the first floor of the imperial palace without any obstruction.
Cecilia stopped her steps for a moment in front of the stairs. Then she turned towards those who were following her.
“Flora and Mulia, please go to your room and rest.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
The two maids responded with powerful voices.
Cecilia then ordered her envoys and employees to return to their respective positions.
Now I am the last one left.
I wish I could get some rest too…….
“Luke. “You come with me to the office.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
It is not easy to live as a direct secretary…….
I swallowed tears inside.
* * *
I headed to the living room with Cecilia.
“Your Majesty. “Can I ask you one thing?”
“Yoonheohaji.”
“You don’t plan on doing business after meeting Duke Kylos, do you?”
“That can’t be possible. “I plan to rest today after my audience with Duke Kylos.”
Then that means I can rest by then.
I sighed in relief.
Cecilia instructed me to sit in her seat, right next to her own. I was quite used to sitting next to her by now, so I sat down without hesitation.
Duke Kylos arrived at the reception room exactly one hour later.
“I am truly grateful, Your Majesty, that you accepted my request for an audience despite your illness.”
Kylos bowed politely to Cecilia. Cecilia accepted her greeting and invited him to sit across from her.
“Duke. “What you want to hear is the results I have achieved?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
As expected, that was the reason.
Cecilia let out a short sigh between her teeth.
“I plan to announce it in detail during the noble meeting, but I will let you know briefly.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Cecilia opened her mouth after seeing the duke nod her head.
The content is that past issues have been resolved and trade has been successfully resumed.
“I’ll just tell you this for now.”
“Congratulations, Your Majesty.”
I looked at Cecilia’s expression out of the corner of my eye. Perhaps because it was a place to brag about her achievements, there was a proud glow on her face.
Perhaps Kylos also noticed this sign.
“I am very much looking forward to what you will announce at the noble meeting.”
“It’s something to look forward to.”
At Cecilia’s remarks, Kyle Ross bowed his head once.
“We, the Emperor faction, plan to actively support trade with the Kingdom of Sergel. “I hope you don’t worry even if the aristocratic faction rebels.”
“When the duke says that, I feel like I gained a thousand troops and ten thousand horses.”
A satisfied smile appeared on Cecilia’s lips.
Obviously, going directly to the Kingdom of Sergel and getting results comes with additional benefits.
If this happens, Cecilia’s imperial power may become stronger in the future.
Kylos stood up first.
“Luke. “Please look forward to the noble meeting.”
“Is there something?”
“We plan to award rewards to those who have contributed to this matter. “Before that, we will find out what kind of reward you would like to receive, so think about it in advance.”
Oh, this is really the news I’ve been waiting for.
Then there is one thing I wish for.
Enough gold to buy a mansion in the kingdom!
“Congratulations, Your Majesty.”
I bowed towards her, expressing my sincere gratitude to her.
