“Long live His Majesty, King Emilio!”Emilio smiled lightly as he finally returned to the last point in his previous life. As Emilio sat on the king's seat, he finally got a good look at the expressions of the people below him. The people supporting him clearly had happy expressions on their faces. While those who still objected, but lost the election, had crumpled expressions on their faces.From his seat, which was the tallest of all, Emilio finally had the feeling that he had everything under control. This time, he succeeded in ascending the throne without his mother's influence. The nobles weren't the ones who had the most influence from the change in status, either. He stood in that spot, purely on his strength.Initially, some people still doubted the abilities of someone who had just reached adulthood like Emilio. But unexpectedly, Emilio's ability in both dealing with his father's death and royal matters was so good that it exceeded people's expectations. Emilio even managed to

On top of the solid fortress walls, Ariana stood and gazed out at the vast horizon. After their relentless fight, they finally had a chance to rest again. Since yesterday, the enemy no longer appeared and tried to break through their last defense. The empty land that was originally a battlefield, looks more lonely and quiet now. The corpses of the fallen soldiers had also been cleaned up so that Ariana could only see the bloodstains that remained on the empty land in front of her.When Ariana saw the red color that colored the vast land, her vision involuntarily looked a little blurry. Among all the bloodstains, there was the blood of the Sigmund Kingdom soldiers who died under her orders. No matter how hard Ariana tried to protect everyone, she would still lose some great soldiers in the end. To those who had put their trust in Ariana, the girl could only repay their sacrifice with a false victory. So far, they have only been able to survive, without being able to strike back at the

Ariana rubbed her eyes a few times as she got up and stood on top of an endless pool of blood. No matter where Ariana looked, she only saw red all over the place. An uneasy feeling gripped her heart, as the girl tried to move from her still position.“Ugh!”Ariana was just about to take a step, and she already fell because something grabbed one of her legs. When Ariana looked back, she saw that it was someone's hand that was holding her back. Fear gripped the girl when she saw that the one who had just grabbed her leg was her grandfather, who had died on the battlefield.“Aria, where do you want to go? Our place is here. No matter what you do, reality won't change that easily. Look, that effort of yours has wasted countless innocent lives once again.”When Ariana followed the direction her grandfather pointed, she saw mountains of corpses of soldiers who had fallen on the battlefield. Among them, Ariana could even see some people she knew. Tears started to roll down the girl's cheeks,

A week had passed since Ariana began her journey together with Duke Morgan and the others. Since the treaty matter was urgent, if they didn't need to rest, the group continued to walk through the various terrains of the Sigmund Kingdom. Ariana gauged that if they maintained their current pace, in another two weeks they might arrive in the capital.Throughout their journey, neither Ariana nor Duke Morgan would speak if what they had to talk about wasn't significant. Ariana only spoke whenever she had to arrange accommodation for Duke Morgan, while Duke Morgan only spoke to Ariana whenever he had to answer the girl's words. The soldiers following the two were no less wary of each other. It's unfortunate to see two kingdoms that used to have good relations have to be enemies because of this war.But recently, Ariana sensed that something was different about their group. The two factions that usually can't unite began to be seen talking to each other without Ariana knowing. Such developmen

“What is this ….”Maybe because Duke Morgan's group didn't hear back from the group tasked with getting rid of Ariana until morning came, they finally split up to look for the group's whereabouts. But what they find is a fight that kills everyone tasked with getting rid of Ariana. Ariana's whereabouts can't be found anywhere. But from the traces of blood that could be seen from the swords of the dead, they could guess that Ariana had not only suffered minor injuries after fighting ten soldiers alone.“Your Highness, should we look for the girl's whereabouts first?”Duke Morgan snorted in disdain when he heard the advice of one of the soldiers. Due to an unexpected development of plans, he was forced to come to the Sigmund Kingdom himself to solve the problem that Queen Melisa made. His niece who should have been killed after being captured is still alive and is being taken away by another prince who is also eyeing the throne of the Kingdom of Sigmund. If they didn't get rid of Princes
