Episode 155
“I wanted to meet you, and I’m here to meet you.”
“So do I.”
Allen looked at the woman in front of him, smiling at him. She was beautiful enough to say that she and she opened and she was loved by my people.
He has reddish yellow hair and looks that will appeal to anyone.
Yellow-green eyes stared straight at Allen. Her Allen looked at her at her and thought of her reason for coming to this place.
‘I said we should have a conversation.
The owner of the mechanical watch was Princess Maha.
She made a seat for Allen, whom she met by chance, to have a conversation with him.
Allen initially intended to turn down the offer.
I thought it was going to be delayed because it was late now. Then, by the time she returned to her empire, she had sent her a letter of regret, and she was done.
But I accepted her offer for one reason.
‘Isn’t there a way to completely remove her from the throne/
Arcanthus’ plan was brilliant.
Because this delayed the time of the future tragedy by dropping her from the academy and preventing her from meeting Julius.
It’s just ‘yes/later’.
It could happen at any time as long as she doesn’t give up her throne.
If she later meets Julius, what kind of profit is in front of her and join hands?
Allen had no choice but to be anxious because he knew the future that she and Julius would create by holding hands. This feeling is only known to you, who knows the future.
‘But her desire for the throne is immense.’
It’s not at a level where I can say it’s great.
Wow, for that position, the Crown Prince, the 3rd Prince, and the 2nd Prince.
He slaughtered three brothers and ascended to the throne.
Whenever a king or emperor passes to the next generation, a power struggle inevitably occurs, but Allen could not lose his current helper, Eliza.
The only way is to quench her desire for the emperor’s seat…
‘It’s to make you interested in something more than that/
If her desire for the throne is enormous, she can only use it.
Allen started with praise, which is the basis of conversation. His gaze turned to her wrist.
“Illiana told me that the watch is quite precious. It really suits its owner, so it shines even more. Where did you get it?”
She looked at Allen and answered with a smile on her face.
“It’s my mother’s keepsake. It’s a gift she gave me when I was young.”
“Oh, that’s unfortunate.”
Allen did not wrinkle a single expression, and gave her a sorry expression.
I heard from Arcanthus that her mother had died. She said there was a reason she wanted to be her emperor. But in this context, you mention it?
Allen continued the conversation while guessing her intentions in his head.
“I heard that you met a lot of people at the Academy. How is it different from Empire?”
“Um… there aren’t many people I’ve met in the Empire, but to rate… yes. I felt a little free-spirited.”
“In what way?”
“What about spreading other people’s secrets without permission?”
Allen slowly adjusted her posture at the words she spit out. Allen also responded with a light attitude.
“It must be someone who is not polite. I don’t think you should get close.”
“Does Allen feel the same way? I feel the same way…”
She smiled and looked at Allen.
“I don’t think he knows that.”
Watching her speak, Allen was convinced that she knew she was the one who gave the information to John.
‘Some have intentionally disseminated information:
For a pact with the Shady Queen.
However, the fact that she, not the emperor or the Crown Prince, found out this information meant a lot.
The fact that the power beneath her is greater than expected.
To the extent that the Chief Executioner checked the report that would have been posted in a letter of urgency.
To become an emperor, you must have a base.
But even at this point, her power meant she held more than Allen knew.
She seemed to have determined that Allen was at least responsible for creating the incident, if not spreading the rumors around the academy.
Allen’s attitude changed as she understood the princess’s innermost feelings.
Allen gambled on the fact that she was already figuring out her relationship with the Queen of Shadows.
“•••Hmm, maybe he made a mistake.”
“Well. Looking at the current situation, wouldn’t it be right to take responsibility for any mistakes?”
Allen asked a question out of context in her words.
“Are you interested in the ruins, Princess Maha?”
“Yes, it’s not that I’m not interested. As you know, our empire started from the remains of ruins, right?”
She did not change the answer to Allen’s random question. However, in his eyes, he was thinking about what kind of intention he was asking such a question.
“Then, there’s one rumor I know… How would you like to hear it?”
She replied with a smile.
“Anyway.”
Allen felt he no longer needed to turn the conversation off and raised the score.
“Are there any news that a non-colon ship was found in the ruins related to steampunk?”
Allen grinned as he heard a joke, but from the depths of his eyes he constantly observed her attitude.
Her body paused for a moment. Allen’s words flowed like running water.
“According to the subject of each ruin, there are some that represent the ruins.”
The representative of the World Botanical Garden is a divine tree.
Exactly, the number of worlds that disappeared in the past, resurrected by the elves.
There are many things that magic represents, so it’s hard to pick just one, but if you’re serious about it, things like elixir.
Items such as vehicles made of advanced machines would also belong to this category.
Anything related to steampunk was non-collinear. A weapon that will allow humans to rule the sky.
The Empire also had one airship.
However, more than half of it is damaged and it is difficult to restore it.
There has been some progress recently, but I don’t know when it will be successful.
“Of course, it’s a rumor, but isn’t it news that the princess might be interested too?”
Allen waited for her reaction.
But she was quieter than Allen had thought.
“••• Princess?”
She smiled broadly as she looked at Allen with a puzzled expression.
At the unknown attitude of Princess Maha, Allen paused again.
she whispered softly.
who spoke in the prophecy.
She continued as if she had found what she was looking for.
“Allen-sama, I’d like to hear more about the airship… Could you please tell me?”
When she thought she had finished talking to Allen for a while, she left.
Allen was puzzled by the way she finished the conversation and disappeared, contrary to her expectations, but Princess Maha had no time to worry about it.
As soon as she returned to her home, she called Sophia and gave her orders.
“Allen Reinhardt, please bring me all the information about him.”
Sophia soon brought information about him, as if she was ready.
There was the information she was hoping for.
Deputy head of the Galshudin Academy.
disciple of the beast king.
Allies of the Shadow Queen (presumed)
A direct lineage of the Lupinus family.
That he may have several more identities besides him.
“Do you need more detailed information?”
“No, that’s enough.”
I doubted it at first.
Airships are relics that the Empire was trying to excavate with flags.
To put it bluntly, would it be said that the Empire’s aspiration is to one day fill the sky of the firmament with airships?
But if he had an affair with the Queen of Shadows, it wouldn’t be incomprehensible.
The reason he mentioned the airship to her on the spot must also mean that he has something he wants from him. But the moment she thought about it, she had no choice but to intuit.
‘The man of prophecy means Allen Reinhardt:
Taking a second seat at the academy where all kinds of equipment are gathered, she already has relationships with two powerful eight-class people, is related to the third generation of the Lupinus family, and there are more identities she doesn’t know about.
This was enough to be called excellent by her standards, and as the fortune teller said, I could intuit it at a glance. ‘
‘If you get a non-collinearity, you don’t have to risk it.’
Airship is the aspiration of the Empire.
if you own it.
‘There is no need to take any risks with this fight.’
In any case, to show your face at the end of this fighting festival means that you will be looked at with suspicion amid the successive attacks of the princes.
As long as there is a figure she has created, no one will ever doubt her, but they don’t know.
Who knows if there’ll be someone who can craft a dagger that will pierce her with little clues like Allen’s leaks.
Combining his appearance at the right time with the current situation, it was more difficult to think of him as a different person.
So, after hearing his story, I decided.
‘Make friends with him and get the airship.’
In addition to mentioning the airship to her, and seeing what he sheds about the cursed weapon, Mach Habueron must have had something he wanted.
Judging from his background, it is impossible to kill or extort.
So there is only one answer.
‘To give him what he wants and to take over the non-colonial line.’
However, assuming that it is true.
She assumed that Allen’s words were more than half true, but she couldn’t really tell.
That is why, for several months before the Imperial Fighting Festival, we investigate and find out his whereabouts in the capital, and if he really has a non-aircraft… .
‘It can cause a change in the succession composition at once.’
Just owning it is like fulfilling the aspirations of the empire.
You can rise to the throne with the admiration of many without having to take risks or devise any other dirty schemes.
‘•••testament.’
Remembering her mother’s end, she had to become emperor.
using any number.
But don’t be vigilant.
She will continue her life as usual until she returns to the imperial capital.
Indeed, in case anyone other than him might be the person of prophecy, it was necessary to prepare in case it was not Allen.
But fortunately, until the day she left for the imperial capital, no one other than Allen was seen.
But she is strange.
There was no strong doubt about the prophecy.
She hadn’t noticed that.
Until I left the front door of Elpis.
At the same time, the duo who had left the academy through the front door she had gone through finally returned to the academy.
•••Finally, you’re back. You’ve barely escaped the madman.”
Prius Reinhardt, he’s back at the academy
And I got the shocking news.
“•••What? The princess returned to the Empire?”
