Lu replied without laughing. It meant that if they were sly, they could return to the old days when they were at war.
The situation was extremely disadvantageous for Lu. This place was their turf, and she stood alone as an outsider, so it was only natural. But she wouldn’t be pushed back.
“Was Duke Gennes from the Calleta Empire’s Knight Order?”
The atmosphere cooled a bit more at the Emperor’s question, glancing through the documents raised by Count Simon Kainberg.
If it was the Empire’s Knight Order, it was the biggest enemy that blocked all of Feruseta’s invasions in front of the barrier, so they naturally harbored more hostility.
‘Who sent the monsters beyond the barrier?’
Although they looked like perfectly normal humans, and the city looked beautiful, there would be dreadful monsters lurking somewhere.
These guys were the masterminds who sent the monsters to Calleta through the barrier, kidnapping people. Don’t forget.
“Yes, that’s right.”
Her identity must have been provided to the Feruseta side already. Exchanging information about diplomats was natural. Lu admitted it obediently.
Hmm. The piercing gazes were originally sharp, but they felt about a hundred times sharper now.
“Always remember that the use of magic within the Feruseta Empire is illegal except for those who are permitted.”
“Of course.”
And Lu, who couldn’t use magic, thought of Hayden’s last moment, which had vanished without a trace in an instant, as she answered.
If they could use such a great teleportation magic so neatly, they would have known from the beginning that she couldn’t use magic.
So, ‘if Hayden and the Emperor are the same person.’ The distance is just right now; she should just stab them right away. Unfortunately, there’s no weapon to stab. What a pity.
‘But are they really the same person? Isn’t it someone else?’
Lu was one to keep all possibilities open. It could be someone else. No, it would be better if it was someone else. To have drunk with the enemy’s Emperor, it’s too horrifying.
Besides, Hayden was one to laugh carelessly and was all over the place, but the Emperor of Feruseta was, how to say, a very noble being from birth, and a person hard to approach easily.
It felt uncomfortable and fearful to be close, like an inhuman existence.
‘It must be someone else.’
Lu came to a conclusion that was close to a personal wish. It had to be.
“It must not have been easy to come alone.”
The Emperor signed the documents with a fast and powerful handwriting. The sound of the pen scraping the paper was cheerful.
“Did you organize everything well?”
Sometimes, you gain confidence in vague words and looks that everyone regards as ambiguous and insignificant.
Lu’s hand trembled slightly. Hidden under her sleeve so no one could see it, but the Emperor must have noticed.
“Be careful of Feruseta’s alcohol. It’s known to be poisonous.”
It was him. Even if she tried to deny it, the Emperor was already watching her, knowing it, wasn’t he?
That look was not one given to a diplomat from an enemy country. It was the eyes of a man who had shared the same bed and knew a woman’s secret places.
Rustica moistened her dry throat silently and replied,
“Thank you for telling me.”
“I warned you to be careful, so I hope there won’t be any incidents involving you getting close to alcohol.”
The Emperor spoke calmly, finishing the stamp that the court servant politely extended.
If Rustica drank, he knew exactly what she would do. It was a chilling sensation.
“Enjoy your time in our Empire, Envoy Gennes.”
A permission document from the Emperor of the Fersecta Empire, allowing the stay of the diplomat dispatched by the Kaleta Empire and guaranteeing safety, was extended. It was a mere scrap of paper that could be torn up at any moment.
It was just like Rustica, just like her situation.
[Star Icon]Having tucked the worthless permission document into her bosom, Rustica left Shalea Palace.
“What happened?”
Aldwin, who had been waiting, asked.
“What happened? It’s just a formality, but it’s over.”
“I was really tense, wondering if something would happen.”
He looked so undignified as a Melbaro knight, sighing in relief.
“Control your expression.”
“We’re inside the carriage. The curtains are all drawn.”
“You never know. But did you volunteer as an escort when you heard I was being dispatched as a diplomat?”
Aldwin looked at the ceiling of the carriage for a moment before answering.
“It’s been a week since the talk started? I volunteered after two days of consideration. Ha, where can you find a friend like me? Huh?”
Aldwin was too young and of too low a rank to participate in the discussions between Kaleta and Fersecta. Probably, he heard through his father, and in fact, Rustica’s name must have been mentioned in the discussions for more than a week.
And Hayden’s appearance in the western end of Momentum Kingdom, a nameless territory that’s neither Kaleta nor Momentum, was four days ago from now.
“You knew, you bastard…….”

Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
