The day that is later has come. The temple of the gods as usual filled the crowd. Three different-age girls stood in the middle of the stairs. On the left pillar, there is an elongated table in the seat of the parliament members with their official clothes; black robes with green silk scarves as judges. In front of the temple door a brownish wooden chair occupied Javier side by side with the Pope in a white robe and a golden scepter and a crown of faith on his head.
"My people, with the gods in front of the temple, the empire will hold the election of the queen. Been witnessed by my people so that there is no cheating
The corner of Hanaya's lips was attracted.
'The fraud itself is there, clad in jury beside you Your Majesty' but to whom can the inner voice reach other than roar in his own mind?
"Before that, what was your request?" Javier's voice fell down, and Hanaya and Rozetta exchanged glances.
Madelin bowed and said wisdom "What I want is a god's blessing for the final decision to choose a queen"
What a stirring hope.
"Your Majesty, I want the final verdict by the Pope" his voice sparked a ripple. The people's ranks are in the throes. The figure of Viviana can not be separated from the word sensation maker pinned to her.
"Your Majesty! This is an insult to the jury! Lady Viviana doubted our authority and suspected us of conspiring"
The corner of Hanaya's lips was interested, really a good opinion. By making her point and capitalizing on Viviana's horrendous bad rumors, she intends to
"Please disqualify the lady for her contempt for the accomplices of the state! Your Majesty don't let the insult to your image happen in front of the Pope!"
members of parliament intend to throw Viviana in one oar. If Viviana who can be sure to get the emperor's favor is eliminated, then Rozetta will also only be a decorator.
Despite the fact that Madelin could easily prevail over the support of duke Apolio, Viviana remains indecisive in the fact that the young emperor's insistence on keeping her was a threat to parliament.
The crowd's rumpus with an expletive made Hanaya realize that. The rejection of the people voiced before the Pope will be directly acted upon. Parliament intends to corner Javier and force him to throw Viviana as an option.
True, the tongue is a sharp sword and words are deadly poison. Javier's frozen face signifies a knock, he can't hold Viviana anymore.
This will also cause a rupture in their relationship because of the hurt feelings of Viviana, if they misunderstand the situation and Javier's choice.
Once paddled, two-three islands were surpassed. What a planned strategy.
Unfortunately, Hanaya is not Viviana. He's not that stupid. The goal to make a happy ending must be realized !
He has taken pains to gain confidence not to be destroyed !
"Members of parliament deliberately led opinion. I Viviana de Lances swear before the temple of the gods with the Pope as a witness that there is no intention or thought to insult, Your Majesty. Are my words clearly showing contempt, Your Majesty?"
Checkmate. The frozen face of parliament speaker Apollio, the person Rozetta was telling me about.
A vow is a sacred thing with life at stake. A strong belief in gods encourages sacred things as deep trust. Hanaya was willing to risk it to show how pure her intentions were. It will drive away the doubts of the people, but raise the vigilance of lawmakers.
In the future, if Hanaya becomes queen they will be eyeing her and be vigilant. He was considered an enemy or a threat. Wasn't that so from the beginning?
Look, those glaring eyes. Eyes full of hate. People who thirst for power. They consider it a barrier to their greed.
Disgust !
Utopia is changing. Not as beautiful as in the picture. Here, everything is at stake.
Hanaya will not lose ! It is over his doubt !
Rozetta's eyes are shiny. Smile satisfied printed. Viviana from the beginning of the meeting gave the impression of a fragile, and a soul that easily despair but on the other hand save the ambitious. His eyes showed brilliance. Rozetta is therefore interested in him.
The reason she accepted the royal decree was not what Viviana thought it was. His family never took part in his personal affairs. All decisions are taken by him in his own interest. The reason he was here was to see the other side of Viviana. The wild side that this young girl was hiding.
The side that no one ever thought of.
You're really special Viviana.
A fool would only see land as cheap material, but the eyes of a smart person would see it like a treasure.
Viviana is a gemstone that has not seen its shine, the more polished the more visible its beauty.
"Even if it is not the truth the words must still be accounted for. In front of everyone, you make accusations without evidence. If that's not the truth? Then should I call what you say while all the living witnesses hear your accusations" Viscount Fostor Duke Apollio's right hand, paled.
There was no other move for Duke Apollio.
There is no other choice but
"Your Majesty, forgive my members for the commotion. In exchange I'm willing him to be in the law instead."
Cut off the useless parts.
Phostors would just be a hindrance, in the worst case dragging them all in the same hole.
"Defaming the future queen in the presence of the temple of the god and herding public opinion towards hatred of the future queen is an insult. Warriors with this as emperor I declare the law of flogging as punishment!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty please forgive me, I am guilty! Please forgive me, lady Viviana please-"
Hanaya drew a cold smile, observing how the originally arrogant man of her expression was now cowering with a pleading face.
"Nobody likes to step on his pride, Viscount"
Then, two soldiers dragged the banished weak lawmaker. A chess piece is no longer useful if it is not needed in the chess field.
"This incident defiled the temple of the gods. So the emperor hereby declares the final decision right to be in the Pope's decision" Javier said in the people's approval. While the hard face of duke Apollio made Hanaya attract a satisfied smile.
So this is what it's like to punish the hands of evil? This feeling of relief is pleasant.
Xavier's blue sapphire standing beside the Pope's chair shined Hanaya in. This innocent girl showed a different influence. Those violet eyes, were eyes with the fire of ambition, burning and glittering.
Viviana is not as simple as she knows. There were, very many things hidden within him.
"With the grace of a god, I as the Pope hope to choose the right successor" the Pope said.
"Then, what's your request, lady Rozetta"
Rozetta pulled a knotty smile "I-want to retreat Your Majesty."
The answer surprised everyone. Hanaya looked at Rozetta demandingly. However the girl only smiled slightly continuing her words.
"I have a lover, but cannot refuse the royal decree therefore, if Your Majesty permits please revoke my participation rights "Rozetta-what did he say ? Hanaya did not understand where the girl was thinking.
Didn't Rozetta say a week ago that she won't budge? That he wanted the same position, then why was his behavior compared now?
He even used words that appealed to everyone emotionally. Lover ?
Didn't Rozetta know that this had an influence on his family and supporters? They'll misunderstand this! Although Hanaya thought Rozetta was forced to be dragged here.
But shaming the family name indirectly is also not a good thing!
A moment later Hanaya realized something. That's why Rozetta asked him a week ago to make this request.
It seems Rozetta just wants to be free from this race. And using special obscenity would probably have kept him safe from his family's condemnation.
Hanaya exhaled softly once again looking at Rozetta with a questioning look. He could not guess Rozetta's thinking.
" With this as emperor, I revoke lady Rozetta's participation rights"
"Next with this I am the emperor of Utopia, Javier de Roughtys inaugurates the race of integrity of the queen!"
Show me your skills, Viviana
I'll do my best, Javier.
