Chapter 1241: Refusing the Refusal
‘Don’t tell , he has a thing with a more mature woman?’ The emperor was utterly shocked. He never thought the situation was like this.
If he sent his daughter to rope him in, it might backfire. On the other hand, the perfect person who could bring him was standing before him.
His sister could be considered one of the top beauties in the empire. She was also royalty, and she had the fierceness of a summoner.
While she might be lacking in anything related to the governnt, it wasn’t like she was a fool. She was definitely a capable commander on the battlefield.
That was why people called her the Battle Maiden on the front line.
While it was true that she was slightly older, her face looked much younger than her current age.
As a result, the emperor explained the situation. “There is a problem. This cloud-repelling device is indeed a solution to our food problem, but it originated from the dynasty.”
“Seriously? Are we stealing the devices?”
“No. However, there is a rchant group that does all the work. They smuggle the devices from the dynasty.
“Well, it doesn’t look like smuggling. You can say they have gained cooperation with the original creator, who is surrounded in mystery.
“We have agreed to get 4,000 devices from them.”
She thought for a mont before asking, “It should be expensive, right? Are you going to make sothing similar?”
“We have tried, but it’s not possible. The core is made of sothing original, and we have no way of reproducing it.”
“I see… It must be expensive.”
“Not as expensive as you originally thought. It has been handled accordingly, so you shouldn’t worry about it.”
“I see. So, what’s the problem then? It’s weird for you to send your beloved daughter… After all, she is one of the trump cards of the empire. With her beauty and talents, she definitely has a chance to be an empress if not for the crown prince and the second prince.”
“That’s the problem.” The emperor nodded. “The one who owned that rchant group might be a young man less than twenty years old.”
“That young?”
“Yes. He has crystal armor stage summoners as his subordinates, but more importantly, his own strength is at that level as well.”
“What? You are saying there is soone who is less than twenty years old and has beco a crystal armor stage summoner? Has he opened his ena completely right after he was born?”
“I don’t think so. If such a thing had happened, we would have seen it at least once in the last five hundred years.”
She finally understood the emperor’s decision. “So, you want Victoria to sohow grasp him? Well, with that kind of talent, it’s normal to go to that length to get him.”
“Yeah. Despite having the cooperation, he’s doing this for the empire, so I’m assuming he loves the empire more than the dynasty. And he personally ca from the dynasty, considering we don’t have any information about him.”
“That’s understandable. The chance of us getting him is pretty high.”
“The problem is…” The emperor let out a long sigh. “He has a lover.”
“That’s not a problem. I an, that kind of talented person not having multiple lovers is a weird thing.”
“No, no. Let finish first.” The emperor shook his head helplessly. “When he visited the grand library, he found the second prince harassing his lover. All those lovers are crystal armor stage summoners as well.
“And the worst part is that… the second prince had sneak attacked him first. Despite that kind of fight, the second prince still lost to him.”
“!!!” She was dumbstruck. “Wait, wait, wait. Let get this straight. The second prince sneak attacked him, and he tried to defend himself and ended up overpowering the prince?”
“Yeah. The Grand Tutor investigated it personally.”
“If that’s what the Grand Tutor said, it must be true…” She nodded in understanding. “Then, I guess Victoria doesn’t have a choice. Do you want to tell her about it?”
“Actually…” The emperor raised one finger, his smile turning wry. “…I want to ask you instead of her.”
“?” She blinked her eyes a few tis.
“Yes, you, Regina.”
“Are you kidding ? I have been on the battlefield for 15 years. I am already 36 years… I an, I am forever 18, but that’s not the point. I have no experience whatsoever! You are thinking of making seduce this guy?” Regina gasped. “I can’t believe you.”
“I’m not kidding. I’ve told you about his lovers, right? All of them are around 25 to 27 years old. They all look mature, and I believe he has a thing for mature won.
‘With your talent, beauty, and strength, I think you are able to seduce him.”
“No, no. That’s not the point. All I know is aliens!” Regina shook her head furiously. “I know nothing about n! I can’t even dance even though I was a princess.”
“That’s why I’m asking you right now.” The emperor waved his hand, refusing her rejection. “If you appear before him right away, it will sound sketchy. However, your role is perfect. Soone like a fighter who has just returned to the battlefield.
“The slight awkward actions that co from the lack of experience. And now, all you need to do is train yourself.
“Don’t worry. There are a lot of tutors for dancing, etiquette, and other things. I will make you a proper mature woman in six months… No, in 3 months!”
“No way. I still have my obligations as a commander!”
“You don’t have to worry about that. We will get the devices soon. Even if it’s just 1,000 devices, it can replace 1,000 high-level summoners who have been opening the sky this whole ti. There will be no shortage of high-level summoners on the battlefield soon, so you can definitely relax here.”
“No, that’s not the point.”
“Sorry, Sister. For the sake of the empire, I have to reject your rejection. Beco a woman for the empire!”
“…” Her face turned pale. She began to regret her return here.
