Hientri’s fate is changing!

“Denying the sacredness bestowed upon the nobility. Will you stay quiet in the temple? Even though imperial power precedes divine power, you can’t ignore them. Once the sacredness of the nobility disappears, who will look up to the emperor! Do you not know why the current emperor, despite his madness, is still in power? It’s because he is known as the son of the three serpent gods. It’s because of the sacredness Hientri received in the past!”

The speaker held his breath as if it was hard to breathe.

His face turned red, expressing both anger and fear.

The first person who had spoken listened and then spoke up.

“Renisha has Cassius. Although Cassius is a knight of humble origin, have you forgotten how he led the Chorpha War to victory?”

“What are you talking about…?”
“Cassius has inherited the power of the Red Serpent. What does that mean? If a child is born to Cassius from Renisha’s womb, that child will gain divinity!”

The man embraced his arms with both hands.

Everyone’s hearts sank.

The gazes on Cassius and Renisha trembled.

It pointed out an issue that no one had thought of.

Cassius’s child can obtain a new divinity!

It could truly reverse the hierarchy of the nobility.

“And the blood of Hientri also flows in the Lothera family. In the distant past, there was a history of a princess becoming the duchess. Moreover, what about Hiloshine? Wasn’t that land originally a desolate wasteland called the tomb of the Black Serpent! Now, rumors are spreading that Cassius has revived that tomb… Grass is growing in that tomb, they say? The power of the three serpent gods might awaken!”

Silence fell once again.

Prejudices were shattered, and what was concealed before their eyes became vivid.

They saw the truth, the hidden gem within the shell.

Viscount Denver timely woke them up.

“…It’s truly a time for choices. Hientri or Lothera.”

“Oh…”

Sighs were heard.

It couldn’t be an easy problem.

The fear that shook their souls overwhelmed them.

Even the melody flowing inside the hall felt like piercing thorns.

The imperial knights guarding outside the door seemed as if they would massacre them.

And then, the long and second music began.

Cassius and Renisha started their second dance.

Spin, spin.

The dazzling scattered lights made them stand out.

Cassius and Renisha! Could they be a perfect pair!

In various senses.

Renisha raised her lips.

Even though she was thrown into the gaze of the people after a long time, there was no discomfort.

It was even better than before.

Previously, the gazes were filled with sympathy for Renisha, but now they were admiring her.

It seemed like Viscount Denver threw a bomb at the right moment.

It was possible to guess what they were discussing.

When Renisha first understood the emperor’s intention.

In other words, when Cassius became Renisha’s partner.

Renisha had a hunch.

That she was ready for a new world.

Cassius!

The biggest problem when Renisha becomes the emperor was the lack of legitimacy and divinity.

However, if Cassius, who possessed the power of the Red Serpent, was there, all of that would be resolved.

Legitimacy could be fitted into place.

However, divinity, which is difficult to assert rashly, could be obtained through Cassius.

By establishing their child as the heir!

Since hearing about Lexus’s intentions from Henry, she had been planning all these moments.

Renisha gracefully raised the corner of her lips.

“Are you feeling good?”
“Is Cassius not feeling good? We’re dancing together.”

“…This world is truly strange. All these things are happening one after another, yet people are dancing with indifferent faces.”

“If there’s someone to send, you should send them.”

Renisha laughed softly.

“Anyway, it doesn’t matter to me, Cassius. What’s important now is Cassius and me. How about we talk about something else before Lexus sets us up?”

Renisha dancing one after another with Cassius was also to avoid Lexus.

No matter how absurd the emperor might be, what could be done with Cassius and Renisha in this situation?

“Lexus is watching us closely.”

“…What is Viscount Denver doing?”

“He’s awakening people. Those who stupidly keep their eyes tightly closed and can’t properly see the events.”

“Then, what should I do again?”

Cassius tightened his grip on Renisha’s waist.

“I’ve been holding back the desire to pull you out of there right away. What should I do to get you out sooner?”

“Soon, Cassius.”

Renisha sweetly whispered.

“Lexus will make a decision on both sides. Whether to surrender or go to war. The latter is more likely, but Duke Cloud will abandon Canaria and choose Lexus again. But can a broken dish stick together again? Time is on our side, Cassius.”

Cassius frowned.

“Don’t worry. Luna will secure our escape route.”

“How do we find out whose child it is in Canaria?”

“We’ve already taken care of that at the temple. Since there’s already someone who has stepped forward as the child’s father, people won’t be able to cast doubt. People will think where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Lexus is the one with more suspicions. So if we wait a little longer…”

“What if you get hurt?”

Cassius bit his lip and asked.

Cassius pulled Renisha closer.

On their tightly pressed bodies, they could keenly feel each other’s warmth.

Things that couldn’t be hidden by thin fabric.
