Disposition? Was there a disposition? Lu reflexively remembered the brightly smiling face of Hayden, then quickly pushed the thought away. He is someone who can instill fear in others with tremendous pressure.
If that’s a disposition, then it’s a disposition. Warm tea was poured into the teacup before her, and Duke Felix Keika offered her various desserts.
“Eat up. You’ll need to eat well to stand before the Emperor.”
“Thank you. Though it’s funny to bash our heads against something without any information, then say this, what exactly is this Emperor?”
With connections to the eastern nobles as he came from the Eastern Nirva Kingdom, Duke Felix Keika sneered.
Coincidentally, Rustica Gennes asked the most accurate and objective man to answer.
“The august majesty of the Emperor who rules the great Perseita Empire is Hayden Constante Rostana Veller. The last bloodline of the brilliant Veller dynasty, missing for 430 years.”
So the name was Hayden. Then it wasn’t a pseudonym when he met Lu. In some ways, it was a bold move befitting an Emperor. Missing, you say?
“There was no successor for 430 years?”
“Correct. At least, that’s what the historians of this country say. Someone kidnapped or abducted the bloodline of the Veller dynasty and stole many treasures and powers of the Perseita Empire.”
A nation of thieves, finally yielding through diplomacy!
She remembered the headline of a newspaper sold wildly at a street stand on her first day in Perseita.
“That someone is a person from Caletta?”
“More precisely, the Caletta Emperor. Carlos Arthur Ingram.”
“Ah.”
I’ll need to look into this further.
“You’re not surprised or angry.”
“I’m not surprised by anything now.”
In fact, Lu didn’t care what insults Carlos Arthur Ingram took from anywhere. But a thief, this is a bit fresh. The entirely impeccable, sacred Emperor resorting to theft and kidnapping.
If the citizens of the Caletta Empire heard this, they would be foaming at the mouth with anger. There were three such people at the Caletta embassy right now. They might already know and be angry.
Anyway, if this story was Perseita’s official history, it was only a matter of time before she would find out.
“According to the people of Perseita, Carlos took everything and then built that barrier. A great barrier was created between Perseita and Caletta, once united, reducing the territory.”
Hmm. Lu sipped her tea. The fragrance was quite good.
“So, the official title of the Perseita Emperor must include authority over Caletta.”
Lu read out his title as it appeared at the very beginning of the noble yearbook brought by Duke Felix Keika.
The official title of the young Emperor, sitting on the White Throne of Shalea, ruling the Perseita Empire, was as follows:
Emperor of the Perseita Empire, King of Quellein, Time Land, and Solven, Grand Duke of Bellua, Duke of Anheras, Turrington, Giena, Margrave of Marshell, etc., etc., Sage of the Midwest, Leader of the Imperial Knights of Perseita, Master of Matop, Eternal Guardian of Perseita.
The repeated “et cetera” includes as many as thirtyfive trivial titles below the rank of viscount. And of all those titles, about 40 percent were once territories of the current Kaletta Empire.
“It’s horribly complicated.”
“Of course. That’s because Fersecta is so large and vast.”
Carlos Arthur Ingram, who suddenly appeared in Kaletta one day, also created the vast Kaletta Empire. He was a living god in Kaletta and the embodiment of power that ruled the country for centuries.
“But I have a question.”
Felix nodded.
“If the successor has been missing for centuries, isn’t that the end?”
“Oh, the empire’s banner was roughly maintained. Frankly, the nobles also wanted to rule their territories individually. Who would want to pay taxes regularly and recruit soldiers for the country?”
His monocle sparkled.
“But Fersecta is a country sustained by sages.”
“Sages?”
“Yes. They don’t interfere with the outside world, but they are fearsome sages who have vowed to protect the Fersecta Empire. Even when magic disappeared from this country, they still knew how to use it, beings who have lived for a thousand years. Let’s see.”
Felix Keika began to count on his fingers. From the looks of his hands, he had some experience with the sword.
“There’s one in each region. North, East, West, and here in Shalea. The South of Fersecta is the current Kaletta Empire. In the East, there’s the Dragon Lord, the North is closed off, and there’s little known. I’m not sure if there’s a sage, but there must be, right? And the West has the Tower Master.”
Lu pointed to the noble’s yearbook.
“Here it says the Emperor is the Tower Master.”
“The Emperor was the original Tower Master until he appeared. Now he’s retired. As soon as the Emperor appeared, he confronted and beat him down. He didn’t do much before either. In a country without magic, there’s no reason for anyone to be in the tower.”

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.]
