Who Stole The Empress

 

However, during the dinner, which managed to continue in a not bad atmosphere, Gillotti went out without overcoming his temper once, and fainted.

 

He was fine throughout the dinner, but as soon as his interests conflicted, he fainted, and the Allies suspected that he had intentionally “fake faint.”

 

It was Gilotti who was displeased with them.

 

John held his leg and begged to talk calmly, but the Allies visited him with a fiery temper, saying that the emperor of Tanatos had deceived them.

 

Eventually, the Allied delegations packed their bags without completing the festival.

 

“The emperor is not ready yet, so I promise you next year!”

 

They did not hesitate to turn around and leave Tanatos.

 

As many as seven countries’ combined envoys turned their backs at once.

 

John grew ten years older in those few days, and Gillotti insisted that he would not interact with those arrogant allies for ten years.

The court nobles missed the former empress very much whenever Gillotti did this.

 

And whether or not those aristocrats’ hearts touched heaven, a startling rumor began to spread in the capital.

 

“……what, the ghost of the Empress is going around?”

 

It was a rumor that the ghost of the deceased Empress wandered around the capital while singing.

 

＊ ＊ ＊

 

“……ghost?”

 

Of course, the rumor went into Gillotti’s ear.

 

Roselyn’s ghost wandered the streets at night and sang a song about the founding of the country.

 

A more bizarre phenomenon was that she had left a burnt-out flower in places where she passed.

 

The public added an arbitrary interpretation, saying it meant the downfall of the current dynasty.

 

The Empress, who died unjustly, returned from hell to kill the emperor.

 

“……Huh?”

 

Gillotti stared in horror at the burnt artificial flowers brought by the captain of the guard as evidence.

 

The news he heard as soon as he woke up from bed was that the ghost of the former empress was going around!

 

A ghost? A ghost? Then that nightmare day.
Was it really her ghost that led him to the previous Emperor’s room? No, it doesn’t make sense.
There’s no such thing as ghosts, right?

 

Gillotti threw burnt flowers on the floor with a white face and covered himself with a blanket.

 

Roselyn here, Roselyn there!

 

The lack of substance has strangled him.
Gillotti was really going crazy.

 

He was suffocated to think that the spiteful woman had indeed returned as a ghost.

 

Didn’t it mean that his power wouldn’t work on her ghost now?

 

How do you use the power of death to a ghost whose body is dead, how!

 

“What a useless power!”

 

This humble trick that made him faint just because he killed a few people felt like a curse.

 

“Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!”

Tanatos in July must be unconditionally fun.

 

The festival was still in full swing outside, but only Gillotti, deep inside the palace, was quietly going mad.

 

＊ ＊ ＊

 

Ghost rumors seemed to have had their own effects.

 

Asha looked grimly at the envoys leaving Tanatos much earlier than scheduled.

 

In this chaotic situation, Gillotti will not be able to afford to keep an eye on Hans.

 

He gained some leeway to gather power safely and pursue it.

 

“We have to coax the Countess of Mexis.”

 

Mexis was the family of Deputy Commander of Katren.

 

It was the very family of the Vice-Commander Katren, who had lost his life severely for the crime of disobeying the emperor’s orders to protect Roselyn.

 

The unjust death of an outstanding daughter alienated the Mexis from the palace.

 

Maxis was the only family who dared to express their disappointment at the palace and survived.

 

If Gertium defended the entire country, it was because Mexis were one of the main families defending the capital.

 

The entire force was not comparable to the Gertium, but in any case, the first family to move troops in the event of a rebellion in the capital was Mexis.

 

In order to appease the family, the first person to approach was not Count Mexis or his eldest son, the Golden Lion.

 

“The scariest thing in my family is not my father or my brother.
Who is it? It’s my mother.
She has a lot of spirit hidden in her small body.”

 

Asha remembered Katren, the vice commander who was talking about the family as if he was embarrassed.

 

She once again pulled herself together heavily.

 

Asha, who was thinking about the Mexis, finally remembered one person she had forgotten.

 

“Come to think of it, what happened to Anna?”

 

She was so distracted that she didn’t even think about finding Anna.

 

She received a message that she would arrive by mid-July, but now July 20 has already passed.

 

Someone knocked on the door of the mansion as soon as Asha thought she had to find her.

 

Surprisingly, Anna appeared in an incredibly shabby appearance in front of her, who was surprised to see if it was actually Anna.
