"Uncles, please calm down. I will always remember your contributions to the empire."

"It's clear that everyone here is questioning my decision and hoping I'll take back what I said."

The old men snorted a few times, but their anger had subsided.

The princess offered a way out, so even if they were juniors, they couldn't go too far.

Otherwise, it would truly be considered disrespectful to the ruler.

In their minds, even if the princess married Victor, Victor should not be allowed to succeed as emperor.

Indeed, Aurelion is right about some things; once you have a child, you can't think about everything else.

However, they could accept Viktor's rule, and even accept Aurelion granting Viktor a royal title.

How did Victor become emperor?

This empire has always belonged to the Sol family; there's no reason for it to change its name to the Clevina family.

If the princess remained obstinate, they even planned to support the remaining two princes of Delin to replace Aurelion.

Unfortunately, the second prince was executed during that year for treason, and the executioner was none other than Aurelion herself.

The eldest prince guarded the frontier and even declared to the outside world that he had no interest in the throne.

Don't get involved; he's a prince now.

For the eldest prince, who lacks talent and ability, becoming a prince is indeed the best choice.

Then the only option is to approach Aurelion and hope that she will retract her decision.

An empire must never be another surname.

“I think your refusal to let a teacher become emperor is not just because of tradition.”

"There should still be doubts about his abilities, with some believing he was just lucky."

Aurelion smiled and narrowed her eyes, her gaze sweeping over the other nobles standing inside the palace.

At that moment, all the nobles present lowered their heads, exchanged glances, and said nothing.

"If he hadn't become my teacher, if it weren't for the fact that I liked him."

“You may not just be loyal; you might also be jealous.”

"After all, you also have the opportunity to become Viktor."

These words really resonated with them.

Even if their initial idea wasn't so strong, even if they never had any intention of usurping the throne.

But after hearing Aurelion's decision, the idea became even more active in their minds.

right.

Why was Viktor allowed to become emperor? Just because he was Aurelion's teacher and was favored by the princess?

He clearly did nothing, made no effort whatsoever.

They became subjects and dedicated themselves to the empire for so many years.

In the end, Viktor picked all the peaches, which left them feeling quite resentful.

But at this moment,

"That's why you can never be him."

The sudden chilling tone froze all the nobles, sending shivers down their spines.

They were confused, not knowing what they had done wrong to make the future empress so angry.

In the end, all the nobles were sent back and left to wait quietly for the wedding day.

Each nobleman remained at home, sighing deeply.

They even asked Duke Reeves to persuade Aurelian, but Duke Reeves told them...

He supported Victor's succession.

Everyone was puzzled. Duke Reeves and Victor had clearly had conflicts, so how did Duke Reeves become the supporter?

Even Duke Reeves said so.

They were completely out of options.

At this point, it seemed that no one could dissuade Aurelion from handing the country over to outsiders.

During those days, nobles throughout the empire would gaze at the setting sun and starry night, sighing with melancholy.

He lamented his powerlessness and incompetence to the deceased Aubrey, unable to prevent the empire from collapsing into ruin.

But just a few days after they sighed,

The next day, when the whole world learned that the throne of the Karencia Empire was about to change hands.

Public opinion has reversed.

The Mage Council supports Victor Clavenna's succession to the Karencia Empire and presents a congratulatory gift to the empire.

The Kingdom of Kant fully supports Victor's succession to the throne and will maintain a permanent friendly relationship with the Karencia Empire.

The Cassidra Merchant Guild is willing to fully support the Karencia Empire in the name of the Clavenna family.

[A vampire has been born, and he wishes to forge an eternal bond with the Clavner family.]

The Church of Abundance supports Victor Clementa.

The Dwarf Kingdom unconditionally supports Victor.

The people of the sea will forever support the great Victor Clavner.

There are many similar examples; almost every country and organization in the world is supporting Viktor.

It seems that everyone outside the Karencia Empire knows just how powerful Victor is.

This series of news reports and public opinion seemed to be constantly telling everyone in the empire.

The fact that the Karencia Empire was ruled by Victor was not due to Victor's good fortune.

Rather, it was a stroke of good fortune for the entire empire.

However, these voices from outside the world do not seem to be enough to definitively determine the future of the empire.

The voices that the people of the Empire could not ignore, and even had to care about, followed.

The wedding of Victor and Aurelian took place the day before Victor officially ascended to the throne.

Queen Kokot, along with a group of nature elves, arrived at the empire with gifts and entered the palace.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, they captured this photograph with a magic stone.
