"I hope Your Majesty and the Queen will visit Welsey later" Frederick shook Javier's hand as a farewell sign.
"certain. And I hope that with this relationship, the empire will get closer" Javier replied.
"Also see you next time Queen" Frederick's flirtatious kiss and smile might create a misunderstanding. Hanaya glanced at Javier nervously, but it seemed like the man was fine.
"Of course Your Majesty"
Then, Frederick boarded the palace carriage while Xavier was on the side with his horse ready to escort the man to safety.
"Xavier, I leave it to you. Please deliver the Emperor safely"
"Okay, Your Honor" the chariot drove, followed by the freight train carrying the grain Frederick asked for.
Hanaya highlighted Xavier's sharp back. That man wouldn't be stupid to kill Emperor Welsey, would he? He will execute his plan smoothly, therefore Hanaya must be vigilant. This is only his presumption but in revenge any plan is always possible.
Having the head of Emperor Welsey would automatically transfer power to Xavier, on the other hand inciting resentment at Utopia who allegedly cheated by killing. Throwing two birds with one stone is a great thing. But even if it worked, Xavier would also lose his life because of the act. Since the alliance agreement had been made and for that reason, Hanaya would get rid of Xavier, the person who had the potential to mess up his end goal.
One insect can be easily removed using a snap of a finger. But it needs a trap. And Xavier's movement is his trap. Hanaya just needs to find a big mistake that can get rid of her figure.
"What are you thinking?" Hanaya who was awakened from the daydream gave a small smile with a brief skirt "Nothing I thought of. Just our honeymoon plan" forgive Hanaya's lies, that's the best alibi.
Javier chuckles at Viviana's friendly back "Sorry, for a while it looks like it's going to be delayed"
"No problem. After all, we should be in the palace for a while right? There are some problems to deal with. And in the next season the prayer is to be done for the opening of the season, as leaders shouldn't we be there?"
"You're right" then, Javier's gaze made Hanaya feel clumsy for being so clingy.
"What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
"No. There's nothing wrong. It's just that my decision to keep you is correct, the Queen is the bearer of blessings" Hanaya blushed hearing that.
Just need to get rid of Xavier, and everything will be a happy ending for Hanaya.

"Your Imperial Majesty, Baron Alex asks to meet with the Queen"
"Tell him the Queen can't be bothered"
"Okay Your Majesty" the bodyguard inched away, immediately informing Javier's order but he returned shortly.
"Your Majesty, the Baron says this is an important matter and wishes to speak personally with the Queen"
Taking a slow breath, Javier replied coldly "Tell the Queen of her presence"
Viviana who just sat down and enjoyed tea had to get up to meet the guests. It seems like lately visits keep coming to him.
"What's the matter with me, baron Alex?" Hanaya asked in a flat tone, a sign of displeasure. Even so, his face looks so friendly.
"I just want to congratulate you, the blessing of the gods flows because of Her Majesty's position as Queen"
Really ?
Next to Viviana's eyebrows was raised in disbelief with a probing look. There was a hidden intention behind this visit.
"Just tell me your intentions are actually barons"
Baron Alex drew a smile, while his eyes flashed. This woman is interesting. Like a jewel that is polished, the more sparkling the figure becomes.
"Retorists. If I could provide one piece of evidence from the many people I suspect, would that reduce the Queen's suspicion on us?" Hanaya is shocked to hear Alex's statement.
With the aim of the Racial Faction, it was easy for Hanaya to harbor suspicion by pinning a hidden desire for their support, right?
"I know the Queen doesn't trust us. Therefore, if I were to tell you the whereabouts of one of them would the Queen believe us? a cooperative relationship cannot be established without a foundation of trust. And I want to prove it"
Taking a slow breath, Hanaya revealed a formal smile
"Unfortunately, it won't be enough to earn my trust. You know the fair price to pay for that"
"If the Queen wants my head, then it's yours now" Alex's rapid baron movement took Hanaya by surprise as the man slumped before her with a small knife pointed right at her neck.
"What with my head is more than enough to make you sure?" Too shocked that Hanaya could not even control her expression. Alex looked at him with determination.
"He is in the Queen's hands. With one commandment, no matter what the truth is, we will be criminals in the eyes of everyone. That's the power of your position, Your Majesty"
"Now, tell me your orders and I am willing to give my head to His Majesty"
"You crazy?" Hanaya's voice rose up, with a knife in Alex's hand with an expression of shock.
Giving up your life as a trust ? How easily baron Alex talks about death.
Hanaya looked at the man with a roar. Angry at once shock at the action. Then said after reaching calm "Alright then swear in exchange for your life. Later if my suspicions are true, I alone will take your life" he said.
From his eyes, reflected the characteristics of Baron Alex. He is someone desperate. Hanaya was afraid that if she refused to believe it, the man would snore her throat now.
The expression of Baron Alex's shock changed grin, in the kiss of Queen's hand hikmad "Sure. In front of the Queen, I swear my allegiance. If I deny it, you can take my life"
Surprise still tainted Hanaya's face, before finally her expression turned calm. "Give me the evidence and tell me who you suspect"
Instead of answering, Alex placed a brownish envelope on the table with a mysterious smile "All the evidence is clear and the identity of the perpetrator is there. I'm sure you'll be surprised Your Majesty"
"In that case, I resigned. May the gods bless Your Majesty" without heeding Alex's resignation, Hanaya's eyes stared fixed at the envelope and grabbed him quickly. Hastily open the envelope.
His pupils trembled, accompanied by widened eyelids when he saw the word for word listed there.
This is proof of delivery of goods. Rhetoris's latest book, the glamorous life of the nobility is the result of the wrath of the weak.
Not only that, the records of the nobles' life history that changed the truth were there. Earl Noir's. Personal data, life history and details are listed there.
"I can't believe it" Hanaya muttered in shock. A second later, the woman's laughter resounded.
"Haha! Found it! Xavier's weakness!"
His eyes glistened, full of hatred. Although the pain was painful when I saw the name Xavier listed there.
"Everything ends here Xavier. I'll get rid of you"
Hisses.
"Servant gets my dress ready, I'll see the Emperor"
"God seems to be siding with my hatred, Xavier" his frown was full of hatred.
This is luck. Not long from the distance of time he knew the perpetrator who intended to destroy his beautiful world, the god sent a weapon to destroy the figure of the barrier.
Hanaya will grab her happy ending after breaking the biggest barrier. Xavier's.
"Prepare for your death"
