Chapter 106: Wedding Ceremony (4) (1/2)

Chapter 106: Wedding Cereoal is not the probleressed this far, I can't uphold the contract between us"

"How cooes on like this" In a deep and agonizing voice, Celestia whispered into oes on like this, you will become the Emperor of the Empire"

I completely overpowered three of the only four Dukes that existed in the E any sort of special ability, I overwhel face to face with theainst thehting proho appeared to beat up the Dukes would be an a feat, but that was all After all, the position of Duke allowed one to possess authority over theabilities were stellar The transcendents who ultimately survived became those that seized power, but that didn't mean they could stand above the others They were sier, that's all It was similar to how one couldn't possibly take over Korea just by defeating the President of Korea in a ht

Nevertheless… As edas capable of overpowering them and even the forces under them I wondered, 'In the end, it all depends on power, huh'

I was surprised to see concepts such as E to the universe This was because the forces of the Great Universe must have achieved an advanced civilization, successfully advancing to the Great Universe in the first place I did not understand why they would retain the monarchy system, which even Earth had abandoned in the past

The answer to that question of mine was power If an individual had transcendental power, and that poas treh to destroy the civilization he belonged to, then he would becos of law He would be judged outside of the rules and framework of society At the moment, the Dukes currently saw me as such an existence That explained why Celestia said that they would try to make me the Emperor

"But…I do not have the blood of the Leonhardt I a wedding," Celestia est that there was plenty of justification for h rumors would spread, those would simply be covered up by the Dukes who currently held onto the reign of power now that the previous Emperor was dead

riree with that idea?'

The situation had becoe with the Imperial Princess, Celestia, I have become the leader of the nobles Faction I had also screwed over the Crown Prince, as considered a central figure of the Eotten rid of the Great General Norrington, a powerful transcendent who supported him With all those considerations, I was sure that those fro their teeth atof the nobles Faction

I wondered how the Emperor Faction would see me as… 'How else would they see me? They would most probably see me as an enemy of the I quiet because they have no justification and have insufficient power to do anything'

Three of the Four Dukes publicly supported the e between Celestia and I, while athered because of the council conference That wasn't all Our e was also approved by the previous Emperor, as now deceased, so there was no justification in stopping the s would have been different if we didn't have any power, but in this current situation, none of thee The Eht Order, as well as the Seven Great Generals, but they still could not recklessly take action without any justification

'Ultimately, they would look for the next opportunity' </eht Now then"

"Now?" Celestia's blue eyes were filled with a bit of expectation It was an expression that h

"What should we do now?" My question lanced down at her and noticed that her fist was shaking, but I helplessly shrugged it off "I a this because I like it either If I were to try putting it into words, I…was kind of in a drunken state back then"

"D-Drunken? How did you cause the situation to go out of hand in a drunken state? The situation unfolded so suddenly that I failed to utilize any of the preparations I hadby at the Detro Galaxy, and you say you were in a drunken state?"

I laughed at the sight of Celestia groaning I knew my explanation sounded ridiculous and absurd, but I couldn't do anything about it That was the truth At that time, I committed those actions because I was in a "Intoxicated by the Divine Spirit" state I was the retted the mess he had caused the day after

'Of course, it is not as if there isn't a way out of this…' </e the door, was definitely not foolish I obviously had some counters that the current me could not accept

Waaaaaaah--! </e beca that I had unknowingly reached the top of the altar

"Hoho The both of you should s filmed" As we arrived at the top of the altar, a beautiful woraceful deh-braided black hair It was Jeong Yu-ri, one of the Four Dukes, as well as the family head of the Shadow Household

"Would it be alright to just call you Duke Jeong?"

"Huhu Please speak casually"

"No, no, I can't mindlessly treat a person whom Cel refers to as 'Grandaunt'</e serious She most probably disliked that sort of title, but she didn't bother to further discuss that matter in the current circue will be sealed once the two of you share a kiss of oath"

"The process is very short, huh"

Yu-ri shted expression "Huhu, since you didn't seem to enjoy co all the unnecessary steps" In actual fact, the likeliest reason was probably due to inally, the wedding ceremony in the Imperial Capital was often the union between two forces In our case, however, neither Celestia nor I had any fa

'Come to think of it, the both of us ue quietly In Celestia's case, her biological ical father died after being subjected to a recent terrorist attack In my case, my mother passed away as soon as I was born
