Chapter 1013 - Turmoil in the Imperial Capital (1/1)

Chapter 1013: Turence of the ‘Royalist Party’ happened before the church spread the news The so-called Royalist Party was in fact the people who supported Lilian A them were politicians, military representatives, and civilians This wasn’t too surprising After the bloody incident that happened in the square, ht Parliament The church criticized the parlian nations ridiculed them In the parliament, some opposition leaders seized the opportunity and placed pressure on the parliament Not only that, but the ht that the parliament went too far this time Besides, the ainst the parliament With the presence from the Mercenary association, Alchee Tower, the parliament expressed that they were under a lot of pressure

So, with one pointing the finger at the other, screaonna play with you anymore! Go play with someone else!” And nohile the civilians were dissatisfied with the parliaroup quietly appeared: the Royalist Party

Under the banner of supporting Lilian, they protested the parliament’s arbitrary actions and asserted that they should help Lilian regain her authority Of course, they weren’t that foolish to call for the disbandain full power and whatnot Instead, they traced history and requested the parliaive up their authority and allow the original decision-ain her position Of course, Rhode was clearly aware that those scoundrels were unlike Lydia orked purely for faith Instead, they were more like Cao Cao[1] who ‘held the feudal overlords and controlled their vassals’ TheyLilian Rhode had to aduys were rather set involved with politics If it weren’t for the blown-up incident involving the retired soldiers, Lilian wouldn’t have gotten herself involved

But the observant politicians found so that they wanted from within

Lilian was a pure ruler as free froht be s power For instance, afterthe incident with the retired soldiers, she did what she should and didn’t use the chance to dereedy for power, she would have used the opportunity to wipe out all the parliament members and appoint her trusted aides in their places But she didn’t do it She let the parliament handle and clean up the aftermath themselves, which explained how apathetic she was Well, this was fine too because through this way, the practical poould still fall into the hands of her subjects Second, she was basically a figurehead in the Country of Light due to the parliahtful ‘throne’, they would also be benefited greatly Gilding the lily wouldn’t attract enough attention, but sending charcoal in a snoeather would save lives When that happened, their power and position would becoer

The final and most important point was that Lilian wasn’t an empty shell In fact, she actually possessed true, powerful strength But the strength didn’t come from the various military armies Instead, it was froh the parliael Threat Theory’ and tarnishi+ng the reputation of Battle Angels, it was undeniable that no one wanted to fight the Battle Angel Arht and in the face of a hundred Battle Angels, the city guards didn’t even dare have the thought of resisting theels were It el to take down a thousand enemies, but it wouldn’t pose an issue to deal with only a hundred enemies

Lilian was pure, innocent, and a ruler who lost her authority She also lacked the desire to rule despite the strength in the palm of her hands, and she could resist the parlia before thens about her Even if they were to fail, they could still use the strength of the Battle Angels under Lilian to avoid a massacre No matter frole har the earlier incidents Facing the requests to resign and apologize for his offense, Nakvard firmly refused and expressed that he would stay in office until the next election On the other hand, the opposition group led by Greig was resolute in Nakvard’s ination They were even prepared to start a demonstration to force Nakvard into abdication and also announced that when necessary, they would trigger both houses to re-evaluate Nakvard’s elected legitimacy These messy situations threw the parliament into a tur flags and shouting to reclaial authority, left them even more frustrated

Not only that, but also the church’s announce du to the church, only those orshi+ped and revered the dragon soul protection and dragon soul heirs had the rights to be resurrected If that were the case, it would be a huge blow to the parliah it was only li of natural deaths didn’t count, ouldn’t be involved with accidents in their whole lives? Besides, according to the intelligence the parliament received, thethat the parliament hated to see Soldiers were their only truon… ould be left of the parlia”

Sonia said softly, knitting her brows and gazing at the golden invitation letter She extended her arm and tossed the letter stamped with the ancient family seal into the fireplace Ever since the Royalist Party was established, Sonia had received endless invitations froroups, and evenwas respectful, Sonia knew clearly what they were plotting These peopleher in After all, Sonia was considered one of the closest people to Lilian now, serving as her personal aphone If they could rope Sonia in and s would be

Especially after the church announced the news, the invitations had becoent It had reached a point where even Sonia’s father hinted to her that if it were possible, he hoped that she could ‘find another way out’ Considering the fact that her fa that they were looking for a new backing and partner as Nakvard had fallen greatly It was apparent that based on the current situation, Sonia’s father had decided to use her as an advantage to be ‘served first’

As for what Sonia should do next, she didn’t give it ht She decided to observe the situation for a while more Unlike the outsiders, she understood Liliandays with her around the clock Lilian was innocent, but wasn’t a fool Actually, Lilian was far ined She knehat she was doing and the reason behind her actions For instance, the reason why she tolerated beco the parliament’s puppet was that she trusted that they could handle situations better than her But when the parliament failed to live up to her expectations, she knew that it was time to take action

Therefore, if Sonia were to be up to soht even be noticed by Lilian When that happened, all the hard work that Sonia put in would go down the drain Rhode’s mission was the most important to her and not the so-called ‘future’, ‘alliance’, ‘political assets’, and whatnot

Sonia knew the reason behind the chaotic ht now Indeed, the parliaon But now, a single h resurrection didn’t apply to those who died a natural death, as confident enough to say that one would never get involved in an accident? This was especially so for the nobles andpoisoned were endless Besides, there was no price to pay for worshi+ping the Light Dragon One didn’t need to fork out half of one’s assets to show one’s loyalty or kill one’s child, placing the child on the altar and begging for forgiveness As long as one revered and worshi+ped the Light Dragon wholeheartedly, it would be enough

Sonia didn’t think that the church was spreading lies First, it wasn’t necessary for the Country of Law to do so Second, there was no benefit for theon In this case, it should most likely be true…

What exactly should I do next? Perhaps… Her Majesty Lilian has other intentions?

Knock knock

“Please come in”

“Sorry for the intrusion”

Shortly after, a guard entered through the door and bowed deeply to Sonia
