Chapter 550 - Im more beautiful than them! (1/2)
”The new Empire! Tax-free for everyone!”
Running on the top of the horse, a lot of people were making an announcement about Haru's new policies to everyone within the Empire.
”The evil corrupt Honest Prime Minister has died! The life of people will become better in the future!”
”People don't have to pay tax! Tomorrow, the Empire will open the grain warehouse to give support to everyone according to their needs!”
”Together, we can build a better future!”
”.......”
Esdeath walked along the street while listening to the announcement about the new policies of the new Emperor. She had been on the remote island for a few days, and suddenly she had heard that the Emperor within the Empire had changed. She felt it was quite unreal and thought that she was dreaming for a while, but she knew that wasn't dreaming and it was real.
Esdeath had been only been away for a few days, but a lot of things had happened in those few days.
'What's happening?' Esdeath thought.
In a short few days, the officials within the Empire kept announcing the new policies that would make the life of people within the Empire to become better trying to gain the support of the ordinary people.
Esdeath chose some tea shop and ordered a tea while thinking about what had happened in the past few days. She could also listen to the people around her who were talking about the new policies exchanging their ideas.
Esdeath who was teleported to the remote island had been searching for a way to go back, but she couldn't find it and she decided to give up. She decided to walk directly from that island to go back to the mainland of the Empire using her Teigu's power.
Esdeath froze the sea and sometimes flew using her ice power back.
If it was other people then it might be impossible, but the one who had done this was Esdeath.
However, when she had just come back from the Empire, she suddenly heard the news that the Emperor had changed.
Who is the new Emperor?
Esdeath knew that the original Emperor was only a small child and didn't have any descendants. The Little Emperor also didn't have a relative who could become the Emperor. Honest also had died and couldn't think who would become the Emperor.
However, this answer was quickly answered by the people around the street.
On the street, there were a lot of people who talked about the change of the Empire and each of them had different views about the new Emperor.
They might not know much about politics and other things, but they only knew about the generous policies issued by the Empire and some gossip about the new Emperor Kasugano Haruka.
”Do you know who the new emperor is?”
”I know! Of course, I know! It is said that the new Emperor has killed the bastard Honest before he has ascended to the throne!”
From their conversation, it was shown how much they hated Honest since that guy had made their life became very bitter.
”The name of the new Emperor is Kasugano Haruka. It seems that he is also born in poverty, so he also understands better the hardsh.i.p.s of our life. I have heard he wants to improve the lives of everyone in the Empire.
”That's right! We, our children, and our descendants will have a good life under his leadership!”
Esdeath smiled sweetly when she heard what everyone was talking about. She had always been wondering what was the goal of Haru to use her name in the Capital, but she didn't expect his goal to be very big and decided to become the new Emperor of the Empire.
Esdeath couldn't help but thought that Honest was quite dumb to believe that Haru was really her husband. She also thought about Honest's action who had sent out his own son to mend the relationship between her and Haru since Honest believed that their relationship was real.
If Honest was still alive then Esdeath really wanted to see what was inside Honest's brain at that time.
'Haru... Haru... What am I going to do with you...'
Esdeath didn't realize that her mouth had turned into a crescent smile. She lifted the bowl of tea gently and sipped it slowly. There was an ice cube inside the warm tea already showing that she had prepared a lot of things for him.
”But have you heard that the new Emperor has made a harem directly after he has ascended to the throne?”
