Chapter 78

It didn’t seem like a joke at all, so it was understandable that they couldn’t respond.

Laritte took Redra’s arm behind her neck to support her up.

“Let’s get out of here first.”

Stella guided the way, “if we go this way, we will find an empty lot where people have been evacuated.”

As she said, there were all guests and employees of the exchange meeting and separate nobles on the large site. None of them were injured.

The Empress bit her nails in anticipation.

‘Bartolt finished it, right?’

As per what she wanted, the results were good.

Perhaps the Emperor also died when the dragon attacked the castle. It would be a more natural reason for his death.

Since the Duchess was also killed, it would all be over if she finished the Duke too.

‘The Duke’s Decree recently missed a dragon, so it can be related. With that as an excuse, I can hold you captive, Ian Reinhardt!’

However, her eyes soon found the three women coming from afar.

“What? How!”

She shrieked.

She couldn’t believe Bartolt failed.

He said he’d take care of it!

Following the Empress’s gaze, people found them.

“Your Majesty, what’s wrong? Oh, my! The Duchess is here, too. What a relief!”

“I’m relieved that the Duke is dealing with the dragon, it’s because of him that we’re all here.”

The Empress was under the illusion that Laritte was staring at her.

It was clear that she would tell the Duke about what she did.

In an instant, her lips started to tremble.

“S-She…..”

“Your Majesty?”

“Traitor! It’s the traitor!”

He shouldn’t have kept Laritte alive.

She had nowhere to retreat. The Empress pointed out her finger as she shouted.

“Laritte Reinhardt killed Bartolt to hurt me!”

People who welcomed Laritte began to murmur while greeting her.

Seta sat by the window of a nearby castle and watched the whole situation.

“Tsk, tsk, silly old croon. Even if you don’t observe it because it’s hard, you can see the destruction clearly.”

He looked far away, knocking off his leather shoes on the wall.

The mana in the air shook again.

“It’s coming again.”
