“Enoch.....”

It was an invitation from Arsene. Abella murmured as she pulled the invitation out of her desk drawer. Abella seemed to know how to make the perfect use of this invitation.

Abella’s finger tapped on the invitation.

She took out the anonymous letter that had not yet been sealed and wrote a new sentence.

[3 days later, in Hotel 1035, in the suite, Arsene.]

She didn’t know what power the dice she threw would do. She just had to wait and see.

Cade did not meet Enoch.

What on earth was that about?

Nor did he specify the next step. Clemington’s chancellor seemed to have no intention of entering the country until he received an answer from the emperor..

“What if he finds out that this old man is really... smuggled?”

Enoch sighed.

Enoch could bet on the fact that Cade was aware of the prime minister’s presence. It’s just that the problem didn’t seem to occur, so he’d just have to wait and see.

He had to meet Cade quickly for a discussion, but he didn’t know when they would be able to meet. The next time he went, he couldn’t guarantee that Cade would summon Enoch. Cade was now in the position of absolute power, and Clemington was a desperate underdog.

What the hell was Cade thinking?

He left Clemington and thought he had gone through many people wandering through Vincent. And Enoch himself had an eye for people. However, he really didn’t know Cade.

He knew Cade was a dangerous person, but he couldn’t guess at all about the logic or reasoning behind Cade’s actions.

After his return from the Imperial Palace, he trembled with anxiety for no reason.

The attendant waiting with him for Cade in the reception room stood still by his side without really doing anything. Then, at 6 pm, when all visitors had to leave, he was expelled.

That was all, but Enoch couldn’t erase the feeling that he was being watched for the number of times he had taken a breath, or even the number of times he had blinked.

The atmosphere of the royal castle followed the character of the emperor.

Now Charope is dangerous.

Enoch concluded that Cade was a dangerous person.

“Abella..... What kind of guy are you entangled with?”

Enoch wiped off the cold sweat in his neck.

“Your Majesty, Enoch Clemington has left.”

Cade’s red eyes dimmed as they followed the carriage that was driving away.

He had clearly warned Enoch.

Even so, he still posed a danger staying by Abella’s side...

Cade’s eyes were grim.

Cade would beat Enoch again and again, until Abella fully doubted Enoch, who kept walking to the imperial family. Until Abela was far from Enoch.

Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Cade curled his purple lips.

“Burke.”

“Yes, Your Majesty?”

“What happened to the investigation the other day?”

“....Are you talking about the research on Skellus?”

“Is there any progress?”

“....It’s dangerous, Your Majesty. You’ll lose to the Temple. The Temple had nailed Skellus Day as an unclean day, and so far it has been regarded as such. As a result, there have been several instances of blood flowing into the imperial family. To deny it..”

Cade turned his body and stared at Burke.

Burke shut his mouth firmly. It was because he noticed that murderous intent was floating in Cade’s eyes.

It had been a while since Burke had been with Cade. As Cade’s playmate, Burke was caught off guard. However, if there was anything that he still didn’t adapt to over that long period of time, it was Cade’s obsession with Abella.

Abella has been rejected since the other day because she was born on Skellus day. No one wanted to hang out with Abella, and Abella was neglected and alienated. However, Cade had started to show interest in Abella.

At first, Burke stopped them. No matter if Abella was said to be Amerigo’s next master, Cade was most likely to get into gossip if he hung out with her.

However, Cade began to reject the temple. He said there was a secret to Skellus.

It was dangerous enough to shake Cade’s reign. Cade was conducting an investigation into Skellus’ Day..

“Burke.”

Burke eventually surrendered to the cold voice.

“....There is a priest who has been studying Skellus for a long time. ?Thanks to that, he was branded as heretic and was banished, but he is still working on Skellus.

“Where is he?”

“He was exiled on an island under the Temple at the southernmost tip of Charope. The high priests insisted that it was to purify him, but it seems that there was a conflict in the temple as well.”

“I have to meet him.”

“Your Majesty! It’s really dangerous. If you reject the temple, the people will turn their backs on you! You know how cunning they are!”

“That doesn’t mean we can’t just leave the troubles that have existed so far.”
