Episode 162

The First Empress nodded at the sight of Mikarin’s smug expression.

‘It’s true that Ulysses devotes all his energy to Mikarin.’

Unlike Clea, who blames Raphael for not having awakened to Mikarin if he had known she was a rotten rope.

Even after Mikarin was taken away, Ulysses only looked at her.

The fact that he was coming and going from this prison and taking care of Mikarin was also reported to the First Empress.

‘And besides, Nicaearsha is ignoring all contacts with it?’

Perhaps Nicaea contacted Ulysses to obtain his testimony at the trial.

From Ulysses’ point of view, there was a loophole to escape, but he didn’t even meet them.

‘Sure, it’ll be okay.’

Ancient magic can only be cast after Mikarin and Nikearsha are in the same space.

It took quite some time for it to be activated, so I was worried that there would be unfavorable testimony at trial, but my worries were relieved.

‘… … Still, it would be a good idea to get insurance.’

“Mikarin.”

1 The empress smiled delicately and put her hand through the gap in the iron bars.

A well-groomed, white, delicate hand caressed Mikarin’s face, which was a mess of dust and sweat.

“Just suffer a little. This mother will definitely save you.”

“Oh, mother… … .”

Mikarin’s eyes trembled.

“You called me Moby at the palace party, so why are you so flustered?”

“ah…….”

“I have already embraced you as Rubystan’s match. You are destined to become a royal. To be precise, the empress of my son who will become the emperor.”

Imperial family, empress.

It was such a sweet sound.

Mikarin looked at the First Empress with a dazed face.

Well-groomed, shiny hair.

A fancy headdress and a cute face.

A luxurious scent that clearly shows the use of the finest ingredients.

The first empress enjoyed all kinds of power even though she was not even an empress.

‘But if I become an empress who is higher than an empress… … .’

Just imagining what kind of life would unfold was thrilling.

‘Come to think of it, my sister is really stupid. Pushing a three-year-old to become the crown prince.’

Didn’t I kick away my chance to become empress?

Anyway, he grew up in a greenhouse and doesn’t know anything about the world.

‘But even my sister being so stupid is God’s plan for me.’

Thanks to that, the one who will have the last laugh will be Mikarin herself.

Even rolling around in the mud like this now is a trial that God has given to me, the main character of the world.

Mikarin bowed her head with a shy smile.

“Yes, Moby.”

“Then I’ll see you in court.”

The first empress, who had just smiled, turned around and left the prison.

When she held out her hand, Madame Piaret quickly handed her a handkerchief.

“A dirty thing with a light body. You still think that woman who is an adulteress is my son’s match?”

1The empress wiped her hands and then threw away the handkerchief.

“It’s good that he’s easy to deal with because he’s stupid and greedy, but he really annoys me.”

“But didn’t things get easier?”

“That’s true.”

1 The empress smiled and said,

“Now all that’s left is to completely transfer the magic power. If I had succeeded earlier, I wouldn’t have had to come back like this.”

“Who would have thought that Grand Duchess Sun would be so persistent? She probably didn’t even know what was happening to her body, yet she held on so well.”

“Huh, you’re bothering your mother, daughter, and your concubine.”

“It’s a little late, but it’s time to fix it now.”

1The empress nodded.

As I returned to the palace, Rubystan happened to come looking for me.

“Moby.”

“Come in, Rubystan.”

“Are you on your way back from Mikarin?”

“Yes. You don’t have to worry about the trial. Everything will go according to plan.”

1The empress smiled and took Rubystan’s hand.

“Then all of Princess Delosif’s magic power will be ours.”

“Haha, that annoying woman will lose all her magic power and die. Our puppet Mikarin will use all that magic power and play the role of the greatest Awakened One of all time.”

“Our Ashura will become the true ruler of this empire.”

1 The Empress gently stroked Rubystan’s face.

“It’s comforting to have my son here with me like this. If I had known you would accept it this well, I would have told you sooner.”

“I’m glad that I can now join forces with Moby.”

Rubystan smiled.

1The empress looked at her son with proud eyes.

‘Well, Rubystan was smart since he was young.’

Just as I tried to fulfill my role as the eldest son of the emperor, I still do the same now that I know the whole truth.

A great mission to cut off Pasquale’s bloodline and make Ashrea the master of the empire.

Rubystan, who willingly took on that mission, changed completely.

‘I also completely understand why I said that Princess Delosif would never be accepted.’

At first, the First Empress was also worried.

Because the only Young-ae that Rubystan was so interested in was Nikaearsha.

but.

“Then Princess Delosif, who knows about my lineage, is the biggest threat.”

Rather, it was Rubystan who first called the princess an enemy.

“Are you planning on just leaving the princess alone?”

“Haha, don’t worry. He’s a very useful child, so I’m planning on killing him and draining his marrow.”

“As expected, it’s Moby.”

The First Empress smiled as she recalled that time.

“When this is over, a delegation will come from Ashura. Your partner will be there.”

“My partner?”

“Unlike the imperial women who are violent and abusive, I am a gentle and prudent young lady, so you will like me very much.”

1The empress added with a smile.

“More than anything, he was born with the blood of the royal family of Ashura.”

“Moby’s preparedness is unmatched. With this, the empire will be completely transformed into our Ashrea bloodline.”

The Empress nodded at her son’s words.

“Everyone will think that I will be caught up with Mikarin at the trial.”

It was only natural, since there were many rumors that Mikarin and Rubystan would get engaged, and the First Empress had been very helpful to Mikarin while she was living in the palace.

“But the day of trial will be the day we win.”

1 A satisfied smile appeared on the Empress’s lips.

* * *

The day of Mikarin’s trial.

Before getting off the carriage, I contacted Serkael through the communicator.

“Serkael, are you ready?”

[okay.]

“Then… I’ll leave it to you.”

I think there was a tremor in my voice.

Serkael spoke in his characteristically arrogant voice.

[Only stupid people worry about whether things will go as planned. This genius always handles things perfectly, so there is no need to worry.]

Those were truly Serkael-like words.

Pick I laughed.

“Okay. Then I won’t worry about anything.”

[Okay.]

I ended the call and got out of the carriage.

Although it was still early, reporters were already lined up near the main gate.

There were no people here because this was the back door that was not open to the public.

—I thought so, but there was a person standing under the corridor.

‘Rubistan?’

Rubystan also found me.

He pretended to know first.

“Princess.”

‘… … It’s not ‘Nike’, it’s ‘Princess.’

I smiled nonchalantly and bent my knees.

“Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

Even after we finished greeting each other, Rubystan looked at me for a long time in silence.

“lowering?”

“… … Do you have anything to say to me?”

Rubystan’s thoughts about the Emperor were still pitch-black and unintelligible.

‘… … Perhaps I have found out the secret of my birth.’

If the Empress had heard about it, she would have known that I had noticed it too.

That’s the story I’m asking about.

I shrugged.

“no.”

“… … I see.”

Rubystan nodded slowly.

A feeling of disappointment or relief crossed his eyes, so I ended up adding one more word.

“Your Majesty is the man you think you are. You will have no need for anything I say.”

“… … .”

“Then I’ll take my leave.”

It was the moment when I bowed my head and was about to pass him by.

Hand caught.

“If necessary?”

Rubystan looked at me with longing, like a lost child.

“If you need to tell me what you want?”

It was a look in his eyes that he hoped would be held onto tightly.

I stared into his eyes and opened my mouth.

“… … But I can’t say anything to you.”

“You won’t stay by my side until the end.”

“Because it is a matter for His Majesty to decide.”

“But you can still catch me. If you say so, I might be caught.”

“It may be the easy way for me. But it is not the way to decline. Whatever choice you make, you will have fewer regrets if you make it yourself.”

“It’s not like you have no regrets?”

Rubystan laughed.

It was a somewhat sad smile.

I looked at that face and said.

“I thought about what I would have done, and I realized that no matter which one I choose, I wouldn’t have any regrets.”

“… … .”

Rubystan, who had been staring at me silently for a while, let go of my hand.

“Yeah, it’s funny that I’m listening to you now.”

“… … .”

“I’ve already made my decision.”

Rubystan’s face, once as pure and innocent as a boy, was rough with worry.

He looked at me for the last time and turned his back coldly.

* * *

Mikarin’s trial has begun.

Mikarin stood in the courtroom and personally declared her innocence.

“I was in the process of properly healing His Majesty the Emperor. This is so unfair!”

The onlookers booed at that shameless remark.

“What do you mean by properly healing? The one who healed me was Princess Delosif!”

“You still won’t admit your guilt and keep insisting? So many people were lied to at the palace party!”

“Quiet, quiet!”

Even among people yelling at her, Mikarin did not give in.

‘I will overcome this ordeal!’

Mikarin spoke in a clear voice.

“When I took charge of the treatment, the palace doctors also diagnosed that His Majesty’s condition was clearly improving.”

“… … .”

“Before my sister came to see you, Your Majesty was recovering slowly but steadily.”

Then the judge asked the courtier.

“Is it true?”

“Yes, it is true. Here is the diagnostic data.”

Mikarin, who had gained confidence, raised her voice even louder.

“I thought that the fact that Your Majesty got up from his seat that day was the result of my consistent treatment. I had been in charge of the treatment all along, and I had never heard of my sister receiving separate treatment.”

“You never intended to steal the ball by lying?”

“How could I have done that? If it were my fault, it would be that I did my best but could not have helped Your Majesty recover sooner.”

Mikarin looked around the room with a resentful expression.

“Even if your older sister cured your Majesty in the end, it is clear that I have been improving your Majesty’s condition.”

“… … .”

“Rather, wasn’t it because His Majesty the Emperor’s condition gradually improved that you were able to heal your sister as well?”

The courtier opened his mouth at the judge’s gaze.

“Medically, it is not wrong. It is easier to treat when things are getting better than when they are getting worse.”

Mikarin shouted with a pitiful face.

“I actually wonder. Why did you hide the fact that you treated His Majesty…? Then I wouldn’t have been mistaken.”

It was a strange thing to say.

It raises the idea that Nikaearsha deliberately set a trap to make Mikarin lie.

“There’s no reason to hide it, right? It’s something that everyone should be happy about, so why are you…?”

“… … .”

“Even after my sister left, Your Majesty’s condition worsened. I never thought that my sister could have cured Your Majesty because of that.”

There was a strange resonance in Mikarin’s words.

A strange persuasiveness in a compelling voice.

Even people who had been looking at me with blank eyes began to gradually change their expressions.

“It does sound strange when you hear it… … .”

“Of course, it was a good thing that the princess healed His Majesty, but it was a mistake to use it for political purposes… … .”

The First Empress, who was watching from the highest seat, raised her lips.

‘Okay. If we bring the princess here, it’s bound to take a long time.’

This is a situation where you need to buy time until the ancient spell you cast takes effect.

‘The closer the distance between Mikarin and the princess becomes, the better.’

When Nikearsha comes up to the courtroom, the distance between her and Mikarin becomes much closer.

Mikarin was doing well according to the script.

‘Is it because he truly feels wronged and delusional that he is the real victim? It sounds really convincing.’

Even the First Empress, who knew everything, was moved.

Just then the judge spoke.

“Nicaercia Delosif, come up to the courtroom.”

Nicaearsha came up onto the courtroom as if she had been waiting.

When given the chance to speak, Nicaearcia opened her mouth without hesitation.

“Before that, I need to confirm something. Mikarin Telsi keeps insisting that she did her best to heal His Majesty. Is that true?”

Mikarin nodded her head quickly.

“Yes, I really did my best.”

“It’s strange. When I visited Your Majesty’s bedroom, Your Majesty’s condition was clearly not at its best.”

Mikarin laughed inwardly.

‘Is this all you could think of?’

This can never be proven.

‘How do you prove that the powerful used their power sparingly?’

Mikarin shouted confidently.

“Whether I did my best or not, my authority knows best. Ask Ulysses and he will tell you the truth.”

“Your authority may even testify falsely on your behalf.”

“Ulysses is not the type of person to dare lie about Your Majesty.”

“… … Really?”

“yes?”

“Do you really think that Ulysses would tell the truth without a single lie?”

“Of course!”

At Mikarin’s words, Nicaearsha asked Ulysses, who was on the judge’s bench.

“Ulysses Ruthdore, did you do your best to heal His Majesty the Emperor as Mikarin said?”

Everyone watching the trial thought that Nicaea was shaking hands.

“Ulysses is Mikarin’s authority. And he’s extremely powerful. But why would he say something that would be detrimental to Mikarin?”

“Is that all? If you say no, Ulysses himself becomes an accomplice. Are you going to admit that you are crazy?”

Amidst the faint whispering, Ulysses opened his mouth.

“no.”

“… … ?!”

“I did not heal Your Majesty the Emperor properly.”

“… … !”

“… … !!”

“… … !!!”

A silent blue swept through the courtroom.

Mikarin looked at Ulysses with eyes that were wide and seemed like they would tear apart.

In the midst of the chaos, Ulysses continued to speak calmly.

“Michalin Telsi wanted to keep the title of ‘Only One Who Can Heal the Emperor’ for a long time in order to secure his power. In fact, Michalin Telsi used that position to his advantage.”

“Lies! Lies!”

“No matter how much it is the order of the Awakened One, I have committed the sin of daring to neglect His Majesty the Emperor’s illness. I will gladly accept the price for my sin.”

“That’s a lie!!”

Mikarin screamed with a bright red face.

Nicaearsha shrugged.

“You said earlier that Ulysses would never lie?”

“You, you again—!”

Sparks flew in Mikarin’s eyes as she looked at Nikearsha.

The First Empress, who was watching the scene from the highest seat, gripped the armrest tightly.

“The guy who acted like he would give his life for Mikarin, hit me in the back of the head like this?”

“Ha,” the First Empress exhaled and shook her head.

“But it doesn’t matter. Mikarin won’t turn around and try to get me involved. I’m her only lifeline.”

“… … .”

“If we waste any more time, Nicaearsha will start talking nonsense. First, we need to activate the magic tools.”

If Nicaearsha ever raises doubts about Rubistan’s birth, it’s over.

At the Empress’s words, Rubystan stood up from his seat.

“Yes, Moby. I’ll go out there and signal.”

“okay.”

1The Empress nodded with satisfaction.

Now all that was left was for Nicaea to writhe in pain.

‘And the secret of my son’s birth will be buried with your death.’

The moment she looked at the judge with much more relaxed eyes.

“His Majesty the Emperor’s illness was not a natural one.”

Rubystan, who had gone out to give a signal, appeared in the courtroom for some reason.

“It’s the result of deliberate injection of an ancient virus!”

And that too with a truth that must never be revealed.
