Of course, Reeves knew that too.
For those with Thor's blood, this is never a problem.
Every emperor, regardless of his past, whether he was powerful or only slightly better than an ordinary person, was subject to the same circumstances.
Once crowned emperor, they are destined to become the supreme and strongest in the empire.
However, no one knows the underlying principle.
But Aubrey had already demonstrated astonishing strength even before ascending to the throne.
He led the imperial army to victory in countless wars, never suffering a single defeat.
And after becoming emperor, his power increased even further.
Therefore, many people believe that Aubrey's power is a divine gift bestowed upon him by the Thor bloodline.
In general, in a country like Carencia where the emperor is the strongest.
Aurelion doesn't actually need to worry about anyone's betrayal.
Nevertheless, the emperor's every move was still closely watched by everyone.
Aurelion should not overlook the importance of these seemingly small things.
It's one or two times, after all, no one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes.
But now that she is the emperor, if she continues to ignore the feelings of the people and soldiers...
No matter how powerful she is, she will ultimately suffer heavy losses due to losing the hearts of the people.
But then, the Queen's words left Reeves in disbelief:
"So what?"
She displayed an attitude of complete indifference.
It seems that in her eyes, even the lives and deaths of the residents could be disregarded.
Before Revy could even reprimand her, Aurelian spoke up first:
“Viktor is my teacher; he taught me everything.”
"Without him, there would be no Aurelion Sol as we know him today."
"So, as soon as I hear news about him, I go looking for him. Is that wrong?"
Her tone was unusually calm, as if she were recounting a trivial matter.
However, these words left Levi speechless.
Reeve sensed a touch of melancholy in Aurelian's words.
Undeniably, although Aurelion has been queen for ten years, she is still only twenty-six years old.
Aurelion lost her mother at birth.
Ten years ago, her teacher mysteriously disappeared, and then her father also passed away.
It was Aurelion herself who buried her father's armor in the grave.
Later, the second prince died in prison, and the first prince was publicly executed by her for losing the south.
Her only remaining relative was her maternal grandfather, who lived in a neighboring country.
However, due to their respective identities and political reasons, they were unable to meet even once in ten years.
As she said, she came only because the person she cared about had news again.
From a human perspective, Revey finds himself unable to judge Aurelion's behavior.
In fact, it seems that no one has the right to criticize her.
This left Levi speechless for a moment.
So who exactly is responsible for all these mistakes?
Yes, it's Victor.
If Victor hadn't insisted they remain silent, this situation might have been avoided.
Reeve simply couldn't understand Viktor's thinking.
Now that he has returned to the Empire, wouldn't it be better for him to go back to the palace and report to Aurelion as soon as possible?
This way everyone is happy, so why bother with hiding their identities?
Now, he could only helplessly watch as the Empress calmly stood up.
He placed his hands gently in front of his abdomen and spoke in a solemn and calm tone:
“I have learned what I need, it’s time to go back.”
"Duke Reeves, now that your mission is complete, please return home as soon as things have come to a close."
As soon as she finished speaking, her gaze fell on Cocotte again, lingering on his trench coat for a long time before she spoke once more:
"As for that trench coat..."
But before he could finish speaking, Kokot suddenly became nervous.
His brows were furrowed, and his hands were tightly wrapped around himself, as if he were protecting his trench coat.
Those clear eyes were fixed on Aurelion, and she said urgently:
"No! This is something Viktor passed down to me! I can't give it to you!"
"..."
Seeing Cocot's wariness, Aurelian couldn't help but laugh.
A gentle smile appeared at the corner of her eyes, and she spoke softly, as if comforting a child:
“Congressman Yad, please take good care of this trench coat.”
Having said that, she turned away, took a deep breath, and walked out of the tent.
At that moment, as Levi gazed at his brother's daughter's retreating figure, a pang of pity and reluctance welled up within him.
He had considered whether he should inform the other party of Viktor's whereabouts.
After thinking it over, since he didn't know Viktor's exact whereabouts, wouldn't it be enough to just tell her that Viktor was still alive?
And so, he began to speak.
"Your Majesty, regarding Wei..."
"Your Majesty the Duke."
A cold voice interrupted him, causing Levi to pause slightly.
Aurelion reached out and gently parted the tent flap, letting in the unrestricted sunlight that illuminated her face and outlined her dignified and exquisite features.
At this moment, she had a smile on her face, as if she hadn't been this happy in a long time.
"I have said that I know everything I need to know."
"Therefore, please don't tell me anything anymore."
As the words fell, a gentle breeze swept through the walls of Kushistan and lightly brushed against the tent.
The tent swayed in the wind, and the curtains swayed gently in the air.
Aurelion's silver hair, like a cascading galaxy, danced in the wind, shining as brightly as a star in the Milky Way.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
"Give everything, even abandon the country."
"I also want to bring him back to my side."
