"So, what exactly was the reason last time? Have you found out?"

Angus was naturally asking about the reason why the Grand Duke's daughter was almost killed.

"Pretty much, alas, it is said that the Empress almost killed her out of jealousy."

Tisnato sighed, looking somewhat helpless.

Although it's impossible to make such a public statement, who is Tisnato?

Aubrey is his brother.

After this incident, Tisnato went to the palace and had a long talk with Aubrey, which is how he learned about it.

As for how the Grand Duke's daughter was rescued, that brings us to Victor.

After leaving the magic academy, Tisnato thought that since he had come to the empire, he might as well go to the palace to catch up with Aubrey.

So he took Victor with him into the palace.

Aubrey was also very interested in Victor, the youngest magical genius, so he agreed to let Victor enter the palace with him.

They even granted Victor permission to wander freely throughout the palace, especially the library.

Everyone knows that a mage's growth requires a lot of knowledge, and Aubrey also saw through Tisnato's intention to come to the palace to reminisce with him.

And just as he agreed to let Victor wander around, and while he was catching up with Tisnato,

Tragedy struck.

Aubrey's beloved, the daughter of the Grand Duke whom he still wanted to marry even though he already had a Queen, was assassinated.

When Aubrey and Tisnato rushed to her chambers, they were already in ruins.

Surprisingly, the assassination attempt failed.

They found Queen Claudia kneeling on the ground, her eyes glazed over, seemingly utterly shocked by what she had witnessed.

They also saw a figure in a trench coat floating in the air, hands in pockets.

Surrounded by magical arrays and patterns, the mage exudes mystery and power.

“...From then on, Aubrey kept me in his thoughts.”

At this point, Tisnato sighed several times.

He was already the youngest third-tier mage, and his future achievements were virtually limitless.

He then rescued Aubrey's wife and even her unborn child.

This single action was enough to raise Victor's favorability with Aubrey to its highest level.

When Angus heard this plot, he felt a strange sense of familiarity.

The wife and the unborn child were both rescued.

Hmm? Doesn't he seem to have experienced something similar?

"He specifically named Viktor, wanting him to be his little princess's tutor and teach her magic."

"What else is there to say? Name your terms."

Tisnato shook his head uneasily as he spoke.

"I'm afraid that Aubrey has no good intentions at all."

At first, he addressed Aubrey as His Majesty, but as time went on, the respect he once showed was gone.

Of course, for Tisnato, disrespect is disrespect.

What can Aubrey do to him?

After hearing Tisnato's words, Angus nodded thoughtfully.

"Because of this incident, the Empress was also placed under house arrest, and neither of her two princes showed any talent."

"I'm afraid he wants to use this incident to tie Viktor to that little princess, and through Viktor, to..."

Tisnato didn't dare to continue.

This topic is incredibly audacious; after all, making a girl emperor is unprecedented in the history of the Karencia Empire.

It's utterly absurd.

But Angus understood what Tisnato meant, and frowned, saying with a puzzled look:

"It shouldn't be that bad."

Aubrey wants his daughter to be empress? Is he insane?

Moreover, did he really believe that Viktor would have such a powerful influence in the future?

Enough to overshadow all the nobles and ministers, and forcefully put an empress on the throne.

Victor is indeed a genius, the youngest third-tier mage in the history of the Empire and even the world.

However, there are many third-tier mages, and many third-tier mages are stuck at this stage and cannot advance.

The advancement of a mage is far more difficult than that of a warrior or knight.

Viktor may also linger at the third tier in the future.

Does Aubrey really believe in Victor's future achievements?

"At first, I also thought it was unlikely."

Tisnato seemed to be thinking about something and shook his head.

Indeed, while a 15-year-old third-tier mage was astonishing, it was not enough to warrant Aubrey's high regard.

They even believed that Victor alone could propel the princess to the throne of empress.

But if,

Is Viktor a fifteen-year-old fourth-tier mage?

This thought made Tisnato squint, recalling what Aubrey had told him.

Why was Claudia so shocked that day?

"She told me that it was her jealousy that attracted the demon of jealousy."

It was not Claudia's intention to assassinate the Grand Duke's daughter.

She also knew that no matter how jealous she was, the woman Aubrey loved was the daughter of the Grand Duke of the neighboring Kingdom of Kant.

If the queen had killed her, this tragedy could very well have become the trigger for renewed war between the two countries.

But the demon of jealousy controlled her, preventing her from thinking more deeply.

Just then, Viktor appeared.

She had never seen any human being who could so calmly confront and defeat the Demon of Envy alone.

Even now, she still remembers Victor's confidence and composure when facing the demon of jealousy.
