Chapter 36: CHAPTER 18 (2). AN UNEXPECTED MEETING

"Darn it."

Lucio, who was walking towards the Central Palace, cursed without realizing. Obviously, he had planned to go and pick on her. Why did she hit Rosemond? If she had done something wrong, she could have just said it in words. Why did she have to raise a hand at her?

However, Lucio was taken aback by the unexpected truth he had encountered.

"If that is the case…"

He muttered this with a serious expression. If by any chance, Rosemond's plans had been successful, it would not have been difficult to abandon the Empress as she had intended.

But the problem was the next part. The fact that Rosemond's plot of intrigue could spread like fire to himself and even to this empire. It was a sensitive issue that could lead to the end of the alliance and then to war.

And that was really bad. As it was, the Ekman Empire was constantly trying to contact the Christa Empire, and so no amount of friction could be allowed.
