Austin Empire, Capital of Theo.
A moderate amount of snow in winter was seen as a good thing in most areas. The moisture of dry land was beneficial for the growth of crops in the coming year, which was extremely important for agriculture. However, for a city, snow would cause traffic problems, especially during this period of time.
In St. Maester, where almost everyone was a Xi Ya believer, today was the New Year. Tens of thousands of people would gather to pray. In the Country of Scholars, today was the birthday of the God of Wisdom. Various schools would gather and hold a conference to showcase themselves. In the Austin Empire, today was the Founding Day. However, it wasn't the Founding Day of the Austin Empire. Instead, it was the birth day of the ancient empire in the Second Era.
On the Founding Day, nobles from all over the country would travel thousands of miles to the center of the empire to offer their loyalty and blessings to the ancient race that had held the highest authority of the human race for thousands of years. A grand celebration would be held in the palace. The arrival of guests would even cause congestion in the so-called most prosperous city of the human race.
In the splendid palace, a black-haired girl dressed in splendid attire stood alone at the side of the venue. Her amethyst-like eyes reflected the scene of prosperity and peace. Her delicate face was as cold as ever, but even so, she still attracted the gazes of countless young talents.
However, it was a pity that this year was the same as previous years. The girl whose eyes and smile tugged at the nerves of everyone was still noble and cold. She was as beautiful as a snowflake, but she would also cause frostbite to those who wanted to get close to her. m.
No one knew what kind of person could catch her eye, just like how no one had ever danced with her before. Lillian was believed to be the child most similar to her father, Emperor Lucas. They seemed to lack any feelings. However, unlike Lucas, Lillian had an inexplicable charm that made people want to melt her even if it meant risking their lives.
The Austin Empire, this prosperous empire, was currently caught in a secret war. In front of Emperor Lucas, his three children used their strength and influence to attack each other, killing each other in the quagmire known as politics. The winner would get everything, and the loser would be at the mercy of others.
After losing the Challenger's Cup, the black-haired girl lost a card that she should have had. On the other hand, Lilian's two brothers, Lucis Archman and Aubrey Archman, added another card to their hands. The two of them formed a temporary alliance.
After the tragedy of the Tucker Fortress in the Eastern Region, a civil war broke out in the Saint Mestre Theocracy. This could be said to be the matter that all the countries were paying attention to. However, under this spotlight, a piece of news caught Lilian's attention: the military mobilization of Duke Caesar's territory.
When coincidences happened one after another, they might not be coincidences anymore. This was what Lillian had learned over the years. And today, Lillian's premonition seemed to have come true.
"Yes, Your Highness Lillian. Please head there as soon as you're done with your matters."
After a slight nod, the palace noble who delivered the decree left humbly. Lilian gazed into the depths of the palace, her purple eyes squinting slightly.
For Lillian who understood Her Majesty the Emperor, this wasn't any special treatment. Instead, it was a warning sign. It was impossible for Lucas to want to see her alone because of familial love. There could only be one reason.
In the noisy banquet hall, Lillian turned her head and glanced at her two brothers in the distance. Then, she turned around and headed into the depths of the palace.
In the quiet corridor, Lillian Archman strolled forward. The girl's expression didn't change at all. However, her mind was rapidly thinking about all sorts of possible situations and preparing a strategy to deal with them.
On the path leading to the inner court, the guards stood silently on both sides like armored statues. On the majestic door, the ruby in the eyes of the Archman Family's double-headed eagle shone brightly. After reporting her arrival, the black-haired girl walked through the opened door and saw the only ruler of this huge empire.
Any ruler of a powerful country would usually be a powerful Extraordinary. Lucas Archman was no exception to this. However, unlike other countries, Lucas didn't show any signs of old age. This black-haired, purple-eyed man's skin was fair and lustrous. His body was well-proportioned, and his face could be said to be delicate. His slender eyes were bright and spirited, and he didn't even have a beard.
