After the incident in the Imperial Capital, some people were happy, and some people were crying.
Watching the once prominent nobles, who had acted as spies for the Knights of the Round Table in the rebellion, being escorted by the Royal Guard Knight on the main road of the Imperial Capital, those who had contact with these rebellious nobles to varying degrees couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation.
"Your Highness."
Watching the carriages being escorted by the Red Shouldered Lionheart Knight whizzing past the main road of the Imperial Capital, a young girl wearing the standard uniform of the Britannia Empire subconsciously hugged the briefcase in her arms.
"Don't worry! Nina. Those Knight won't catch you. "
The gentle voice brought a strong sense of security.
The person who was also watching the Lionheart Knight whizzing past like the young girl was Schonetzel, the man who was once again the Prime Minister of the Empire.
The man, who was once privately called by Euphemia as waiting for a certain opportunity, finally made his move now that the rebellion of the Knight of the Round Table had been settled.
"Mm, yes. I understand. "
The young girl, who was called Nina by Schonetzel, responded weakly. Then, her eyes flickered with a trace of excitement as she looked at the palace in the distance with a trace of longing.
In her arms, in the briefcase that was tightly protected by her, was Schonetzel's new move.
This was not a rebellion after the Knight of the Round Table, but a show of loyalty to Empress Euphemia.
"Raise your head! Nina, your masterpiece will definitely be appreciated by Her Majesty the Empress. "
In the Imperial Palace, howls and cries from the outside world were incessant.
But no one would have a trace of pity or waver in the face of these howls and cries.
The moment the First Knight was cut down by the Fiery Demon Sword, the entire Imperial Capital was immediately shocked by the various criminal evidence released by the intelligence unit under the command of Viretta.
These were the crimes committed by the nobles who openly and secretly supported the rebellion of the Knight of the Round Table.
A dazzling array of criminal evidence.
A case that made one's hair stand on end.
At the same time that made the people of the Imperial Capital angry.
It also made the nobles in the Imperial Capital feel lingering fear.
This was a show off.
It was also a demonstration.
The Empress, who was sitting on the throne, had once again refreshed the world's understanding of her.
However, did this mean that the changes caused by the betrayal of the Knight of the Round Table had been pacified?
No.
Be it Euphemia or Ray Mingkai, neither of them believed that the rebellion in the capital of the Britannia Empire was over.
Based on the reports from Leila and Ethelam, the battle above the Imperial Capital was more of a prelude to a rebellion than a rebellion.
Anya Alstraim, who was under the control of Mariana's undead.
The Ninth Knight, Nonette Enigram, had been seen through, but she had simply surrendered and allowed others to deal with her.
There was something strange about the actions of these two people.
"Kai. I'm afraid the square in front of the palace gate will have to be cleaned for some time. "
Euphemia, who was standing on top of the city gate and silently observing the situation below, slowly sighed.
This was not the result she wanted, but it was a scene that was bound to happen on the path she was pursuing.
Even though Euphemia now had the power and title of the empress of the empire, she couldn't gather everyone's thoughts and work together to step into the deep space.
"Yes! However, the maple leaves outside the city seem to have become even redder. "
Ray Mingkai's gaze crossed the square in front of the palace gate and looked outside the Imperial Capital.
He remembered that there was a maple forest there.
"Perhaps!"
Euphemia turned around and smiled softly at Ray Mingkai, then raised her right hand and waved gently.
In an instant, the square in front of the palace gate erupted with even more mournful cries than before.
The square in front of the palace gate did not welcome the storm of cleansing, but the maple forest outside the Imperial Capital had become even redder, as red as fire.
Outside the square, Schonetzel, who had arrived in a carriage, called for the carriage to stop. At the same time, he also got off the carriage and silently made way for the Lionheart Knight who was escorting the criminals away.
Nina was also standing beside him.
However, Nina did not look at the Lionheart Knight as Schonetzel did. Instead, she looked above the city gate.
"Euphemia … Your Majesty!"
How long has it been?
How long has it been since I met Euphemia for the first time and talked with her for the first time?
Nina might not remember it all clearly, but she remembered the process of her meeting with Euphemia and the content of their conversation very clearly. Even when Schonetzel came looking for Nina after learning about her research, Nina did not hesitate to continue her research with Schonetzel's support because Schonetzel said that she might be appreciated by the Empress.
Now, she could personally take the results of her research and walk towards the supreme existence of the Britannia Empire.
"Your Highness Schonetzel. Her Majesty has already learned of Your Highness's arrival. She invites Your Highness and this young lady to immediately go to the side hall. "
Nina, who was looking above the city gate, was startled awake by these words and saw Schonetzel's smile that could see through one's heart.
"Alright! Nina. The moment you've been chasing has arrived. Come with me! "
"Yes! Your Highness Schonetzel. "
Half an hour later, in the side hall.
Schonetzel finally saw Ray Mingkai, who was rumored to have been injured in the assassination attempt.
Seeing Ray Mingkai's unscathed appearance, Schonetzel knew that his wait was not in vain.
"Your Majesty. This is the name list of the people involved in the rebellion of the Knight of the Round Table. I hope it can help Your Majesty relieve some of your worries. "
Schonetzel was not surprised by the fact that Ray Mingkai was standing beside Euphemia. Instead, he calmly handed over the name list with both hands. This caused Euphemia to be somewhat surprised.
"Oh. How thoughtful of you, royal brother! But, this name list … "
"This is the name list of the people who have secretly interacted with the Knight of the Round Table over the years. I hope Your Majesty can take a look. "
What a guy!
Schonetzel's act of betraying his teammate was so natural and right that it was truly an eye-opener for Ray Mingkai.
"Is that so? Then, I'll accept it. Also, the one standing beside royal brother is Nina? Nina Einstein? "
After her surprise, Euphemia calmly had the attendant accept the name list.
Then, her gaze fell upon the somewhat cowardly figure standing behind Schonetzel.
"Yes! Your Majesty. This is Nina Einstein. She was once a student of Ashford Academy. In an incident many years ago, she had interacted with Your Majesty for a period of time. "
Schonetzel took a small step back, "pushing" Nina Einstein into Euphemia's gaze.
In this instant, Nina's expression was one of joy, but also of fear.
She was happy because she had finally met Euphemia, but she was afraid because of the fact that she was the Empress, Euphemia.
"Mm. I remember. In that incident, Nina, you were almost harmed by the bandits. Isn't that right? "
What Nina didn't expect was that Euphemia's first words were a memory that was engraved in Nina's bones.
If it weren't for that incident, the cowardly Nina probably wouldn't have had anything to do with the lofty Euphemia for the rest of her life.
In her excitement, Nina didn't even notice Euphemia's next words.
"Speaking of which, this is also the first time you've piloted a Lancelot to save me, Kai!"
"Indeed."
Seeing this scene, Ray Mingkai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Ray Mingkai, who knew her inside out, naturally noticed Nina's unusual feelings towards Euphemia.
At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh at the stubbornness of history.
The wheel of history went round and round, but in the end, it still came back to Nina, the girl who had a major impact on the direction of history.
"Prime Minister. If it's just to catch up, we can set up a banquet in the back garden afterwards. "
Ray Mingkai straightened his expression and tried to bring the topic back to the main topic.
If he continued to let Nina get excited, the topic would probably lead to an unexpected outcome.
Perhaps it was intentional.
Or perhaps it was unintentional.
The moment Ray Mingkai spoke, Schonetzel's expression also became serious and he nodded.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness. Nina Einstein's talent is the most outstanding talent in my life apart from Earl Royd. The talent she possesses is beyond doubt. "
"Oh. Is that so? Nina, can you tell me what you're good at? "
Euphemia asked Nina with an amiable smile on her face.
“Freyja。”
Unfortunately, before Nina could answer, Lei Mingkai had already exposed Schonetzel's plan. At the same time, he didn't give Nina any chance to show off her achievements.
In response, Ray Mingkai's expression was abnormally calm, as if he didn't realize that this was a very rude action.
"As expected of Your Highness! You actually know of Freyja's existence. "
In response, Schonetzel didn't get angry. Instead, he sighed and created an opportunity for Nina.
"Your Majesty. Nina Einstein's latest achievement is indeed called Freyja. Its existence will certainly be able to solve Your Majesty's problems. "
“Freyja？ The Goddess of Love? This name seems to have a deeper meaning. "
Euphemia looked at Ray Mingkai in surprise and once again indicated that Nina could speak.
"Yes … Yes! Uffi … No, Your Majesty the Empress! I … Freyja … "
Unfortunately, Ray Mingkai's deliberate interruption just now seemed to have worn away the courage that Nina had worked so hard to muster. For a moment, Nina actually couldn't say a single continuous sentence in front of the Empress.
This made Euphemia somewhat helpless.
In her opinion, Ray Mingkai's action just now was very rude, but it also made Euphemia very confused.
From Lei Mingkai's actions, it seemed like he was jealous!
"Cough! Nina Einstein. Freyja is the new type of nuclear weapon that you developed, right? "
Sensing Euphemia's reproachful gaze, Ray Mingkai knew that he was in the wrong. He could only open his mouth to guide Nina to continue speaking and make up for his previous rudeness.
"Ah!! Yes, yes! Your Majesty the Prince. That is the new type of nuclear weapon that I developed. It is a new type of weapon that can instantly destroy any target within a radius of 10 kilometers. "
Under Ray Mingkai's guidance, Nina's speech finally became fluent. At the same time, she also got rid of her nervousness and answered Euphemia's question in a relaxed manner.
"I already know of Freyja's existence! Brother, you are so considerate! It seems that this is the choice that Imperial Brother has made, right? "
Schonetzel slightly bowed in response to Euphemia's question and responded respectfully.
"Yes. As Your Majesty wishes! I am willing to sacrifice myself for the prosperity of the Empire! In addition, other than Freyja, we are also willing to offer Your Majesty the Sky Fortress — Damocles. "
Under Schunazel's signal, an exquisite and luxurious scepter was taken out from Nina's briefcase and presented to him with both hands.
