"You...you are no longer a citizen of the Empire."
"So...therefore..."
Then, she suddenly closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and loudly announced:
"Just marry me! Become my royal consort!"
"All problems will be solved!"
Her voice echoed throughout the carriage, filling every corner with Aurelion's excitement and tension.
But no matter how loud her voice was, it could only echo within the closed carriage and could not escape.
The moment the words were spoken, a deep silence fell inside the carriage.
Even the sounds of carriages rolling over the road and the clanging of armor belonging to the guards could be clearly heard.
After a long silence, Aurelion slowly opened her eyes, trying to see Victor's reaction.
Viktor's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
She looked at Viktor and asked calmly:
"Did you consider the consequences before saying those words?"
"Or rather, have you really given this matter much thought?"
Aurelion was slightly taken aback, then saw Victor continue speaking:
“First of all, what they did to me was not just smear me, because I do indeed possess the identity of an emissary of an evil god.”
Upon hearing this, Aurelion's pupils contracted slightly, and a look of astonishment flashed in her star-like eyes.
“The Karencia Empire is a nation that rejects divine intervention; you should understand that,”
Viktor said slowly,
"If I were to become your royal consort, the consequences would be dire."
Seeing Victor's gradually calming expression, Aurelion felt her body tremble involuntarily.
“You understand better than I what the consequences are for an emperor if he loses the hearts of the people.”
"Under these circumstances, do you still want to 'marry' me?"
"...I don't care."
Almost instantly, Aurelion gave a firm response.
At this moment, even Viktor was slightly surprised.
You could clearly see Aurelion's body trembling slightly, an instinctive reaction caused by fear.
But she remained steadfast in telling him.
She doesn't care.
She was willing to disregard the will of the people and even give up the emperor's throne.
All for the sake of getting 'Victor'.
This is the possessiveness of the Eternal Witch, who would rather destroy everything and give up everything in order to obtain the one she loves.
Victor watched as Aurelion's body gradually calmed down, and her breathing became more even.
Those eyes, which seemed to be filled with stars, gradually became more determined.
He snapped out of his daze.
Then, a slight, calm smile appeared on his lips.
However, Aurelion failed to notice the hint of 'success' in that smile.
Because then, Victor said:
"Okay, then I'll agree."
"I want to marry you."
