Who Stole The Empress

n in a gentle voice that did not offend him as much as possible.
(*apparently John lost the rock, paper, scissors game)

 

The meeting’s opinions were conveyed by voice.

 

As always, the person who proposed the match had the greatest chance of losing the match.
There was no scientific or mathematical basis, but in any case, strangely, many such situations have occurred.

 

John, who proposed the rock-paper-scissors, also succumbed to his scheme and stood in front of Gillotti.

 

John also wanted to avoid this situation, as he had been through enough of how violent and ignorant Gillotti was recently, but it was already too late.

 

The emperor looked out the window without answering.

 

In fact, the important things to Gillotti now were not the national flower hunting, nor the departing of guests, nor the empty treasury.

 

‘The monsters will keep appearing.
Local lords also said that the gap is still being torn.’

 

Gillotti nervously clenched his fists.

 

Weakened by the side effects of using his power at will, his body may collapse at any time.

 

He claimed he could fight monsters with his superpowers, but Gillotti neither wanted to nor had the ability to do so.

 

‘I can’t die in vain like this.
How did I hold the throne?’

 

After seeing the battle of Perso, Gillotti no longer rebuked him.

He had no choice but to give up his room and imperial coat to Gertium.

 

‘..The gaps have become more frequent, and the capital in July is no longer safe.’

 

In this case, no matter how arrogant Gertium was, Gillotti couldn’t beat him recklessly.
Gertium had been swinging his sword every day on the outskirts, and his skills were far more superior than those of the Imperial Knights.

 

Gillotti realized that even with hundreds of imperial troops, it could not be compared to one of the Order of Gertium.

 

He had to hold Gertium by his side until he felt safe.

 

It seemed like it would be best to form a marriage bond with the Gertium family.

 

In order to protect his younger sister, Gertium will pay more attention to the defense of the Imperial Palace.

 

“……Your Majesty?”

 

Gillotti looked back at John belatedly.
He was so lost in thought that he hardly heard what John had to say.

 

Gillotti asked, rubbing his forehead as if tired.

 

“Say it again.”

 

In a cold sweat, John rubbed his wet hands against his clothes.

 

Looking at Gillotti’s crumpled expression, he felt that he didn’t like what he said.

 

‘… I should have played three rounds.’

 

John wanted to slap his mouth when he said he would decide the game by one round.

 

“So, why don’t we call off the national flower hunt and make it difficult to determine the winner? If there is a person who brings the flower, he or she will be given what they wish for ….”

 

“Yes, do that.”

 

“Eh, yes?”

 

“Do that.”

 

The answer came out more easily than John expected, so John looked at the emperor with a stunned face.

 

Seeing Gillotti frowned as if he had nothing more to say, John came to his senses.

 

“Oh, yes.
yes! Come on, let’s proceed quickly, Your Majesty!”

 

He hurriedly greeted the emperor and tried to get out of the audience chamber as if he was running away.

 

“Wait.”

 

At that moment, Gillotti’s eerie voice grabbed John’s hair by the back of his head.

‘ah…yes, things can’t be this easy.’

 

John pressed his lips together and turned around slowly.

 

If it was the current emperor, he was a person who could reverse his words, saying, ‘I don’t think so’ after thinking about it for three seconds.

 

Then he had to think of another way now.

 

“If you have more to say………” (John)

 

“What is Natasha doing?” (Gillotti)

 

Fortunately, the emperor didn’t mention the flower hunting.

 

John was noticeably relieved and answered quickly.

 

“Lady Natasha is still resting well.
Still, except for one of her maids, Anne, no one is allowed to visit, but there seems to be no abnormality.”

 

“…that’s good.”

 

“However, she has not yet had a definitive treatment because she is refusing even the royal doctor.”

 

“I see.
Get out.”

 

John quickly greeted him and left the room.

 

It was only then that a sigh of relief escaped his lips.
These days, the emperor was like a bomb before it exploded, so it was difficult and scary every time.

 

“This is not the time to be like this, let’s go.”

 

He had to tell the news to the court officials who were still in the conference room.

 

There was a lot of work for the court officials to do as the event was moved forward.

 

As John ran, he was content to conjure up how difficult it was for him to obtain this consent.

 

He had to make the most of today’s performance in order to never get caught in something like this next time.

 

‘Yeah, it’s a one-shot match!’

 

As he re-evaluated his mouth, which had wagered a single game, John ran toward the conference room with a light footstep as if flying away.
