Chapter 128

Proofreader: somnium

Ansgar was startled.

“You don’t have to, Madam.”

“Ansgar.”

“It was the Dowager Marchioness Rosan, who committed the heresy. Of course, you may feel morally responsible, but strictly speaking, it has nothing to do with you.”

Artizea has already separated herself from Miraila. In this capital, no one with an ear didn’t know it.

“I can’t hide forever.”

“The priesthood has no authority to interrogate Madam. If the Temple wants to take you for the kin punishment, they’ll have to get Sir Lawrence out first. Not Madam.”

Ansgar said sternly.

“Unless all the knights and servants of Grand Duchy Evron lose their lives, no one will be able to restrain or enforce Madam.”

Artizea was a little bitter and a little sad. It was because Ansgar’s attitude had itched the scars of the past.

“Don’t worry, Ansgar, all you can be punished at the temple is excommunication.”

“Madam…….”

“The scandal is not a small sin. But for it to be a real threat, it must lead to the deprivation of property or title.”

Those who are excommunicated are deprived of their rights as members of the society. This was another matter with atheists.

An atheist simply meant that he had little or no piety. But excommunication meant that he was a felon who did not deserve to be under God.

Therefore, they retroactively lose all rights.

Therefore, the sacrament of marriage becomes nonexistent. All children born become illegitimate.

When Milaira is excommunicated, Artizea will no longer be a direct line of the Marquisate of Rssan.

But how about that? It is only formally stated that Artizea is the daughter of Marquis Rosan. No one thought of her as the real lineage, so it had little to do with her reputation.

“I have already succeeded the Marquisate of Rosan, so there is no way I will lose my title unless another blood family sues for inheritance. The title of Grand Duchess Evron was obtained through my own marriage, so it doesn’t matter if I become an illegitimate child. Because I am not being excommunicated.”

“Madam…….”

“Ansgar, if I am excommunicated, will Evron banish me?”

“It will never happen.”

Ansgar declared. Artizea smiled.

“Then I don’t have to worry.”

“Madam.”

“Don’t worry, Ansgar, this is my decision.”

When Artizea said that, Ansgar couldn’t hold back any more.

The Mistress has already made a decision. Any further disapproval would not be an advice, but an out of place nagging.

Artizea greeted Marcus separately. She couldn’t pretend she didn’t know the old butler, who had not slept for days out of worry.

Because this had something to do with Miraila, Marcus became even more angry and wept.

He had now thought that she was stabilized in many ways, and that she could just wait for the birth of her successor in peace.

Only now, it seemed he could forgive and forget even the complicated feelings about Artizea’s birth.

If only a child is born, if only a real heir of the real lineage is born, then the Marquisate of Rosan will be able to start anew.

Again Miraila ruined it.

Marcus’ position is different from Ansgar’s. In the worst case, Evron can also choose to give up on Artizea.

“Don’t worry too much. How much money have I dedicated to the temple so far?”

“Madam…….”

Artizea was joking, but Marcus couldn’t take it lightly.

Then Artizea looked into Marcus’ eyes and spoke straightly.

“The problem is actually more on the side of the rebellion than the excommunication of my mother.”

Marcus clenched his lips so that it turned white and he nodded his head.

Heretics are excommunicated. Wizards are burned at the stake.

But it is not a kin punishment system. Lawrence and Artizea would indirectly suffer as a result of Milaira’s excommunication.

However, it was a rebellion to curse the Empress; to pray for her misfortune and death.

Even if Artizea completely cut off her relationship with Miraila, it is of no use. As long as they were related by blood, it was a felony that would get even Artizea and Lawrence executed. Grand Duchy Evron and Lawrence’s men will also be implicated and imprisoned altogether.

“His Majesty won’t do that. It’s not that he can’t kill his wife or his own son, but there’s no benefit to be seen in doing so.”

“Then what does Her Majesty the Empress… .”

“She no longer has the energy to take an active part in this complicated battle. But isn’t there one person who will do everything in his power to allege treason?”

At Artizea’s words, Marcus spoke heavily with bloodshot eyes.

“I know what you mean.”

“For the time being, let the temple dominate. Until public opinion subsides, heresy is better for me. Understand?”

“Yes. …… I am angry and sad, but I understand.”

Artizea lightly tapped his arm.

Hayley, who was ready to go out, was waiting. She wore clothes that looked like a knight’s uniform, with a short sword and pistol around her waist. On her chest was the insignia of Grand Duchy Evron.

Artizea was surprised. Because she didn’t know that Hayley had such clothes.

“Hayley?”

“It’s just clothes. I’m not good at swords and I can’t even shoot.”

Then Hayley showed the magazine of her pistol. It was empty.

“This role originally belonged to Lysia, but now it doesn’t.”

“I was going to make you watch the social scene.”

“Leave it to Sir Freil. The place where a lady-in-waiting will be is close to her mistress.”
