The Emperor’s Office was urgently set up in the Felice Kingdom .
Liam, Duke of Akshire, who was on the scene of the Wyvern attack, was the first person to be called .
“The Duke of Akshire meets Your Majesty . ”
Liam gave a polite example, but Fabian lifted him up without even looking at him with a gesture . Fabian had a report about the Wyverns incident in front of him .
“I heard that the Duke was close to the Wyvern at the time of the attack . ”
“Yes, that’s right . ”
“Tell me in detail what you’ve seen and heard . ”
Liam recalled the vivid roar of Wyvern . It was a moment that felt like an eternity for a second .
“The Wyverns suddenly appeared, covered the sky, and flew low near the plaza, and captured a man away . He was in the air… . ”
“No, I don’t need the part everyone knows . Tell me what only you’ve seen . ”
Liam nodded in silence at Fabian’s cold voice . There were many rumors that the Imperial Emperor was exceptionally heartless and he didn’t mind that one of his people had been killed .
“I was on the platform with Prince Felice and the Pope . The Wyverns, who were making a fuss in the square changed their direction and flew to the podium . ”
“Did the Wyverns seem to be aiming for something?” Fabian squinted his eyes .
“Or, anything suspicious?”
Fabian was suspicious of the Pope . No matter what he did, Fabian suspected that he had deliberately led the demons to the place where the people gathered and destroyed them .
“I couldn’t afford to observe them directly . ” Liam answered, honestly .
“Then, what did you do then?”
“I had to protect the royal family of Felice according to my duty . ”
He was right, but somehow Fabian looked dissatisfied with it .
“When the Wyvern rushed to the podium the princess threw herself on the prince’s side . I saw it and couldn’t do anything but cover her back . ”
Fabian frowned his forehead .
“The Knight-Trained Duke like you, didn’t see the enemy properly?”
“I’m sorry . ”
Liam was one of the people who didn’t hesitate in front of Fabian .
“I couldn’t stand still when I saw the princess throwing herself in a dangerous place . I immediately blocked the princess’s back, and I only heard later that the Paladin Knights had come out and killed the Wyvern . ”
“Which means you haven’t seen any clues . ”
“Yes . ” Liam didn’t deny Fabian’s words as he grabbed the point .
“I couldn’t help it, because my duty was to protect Felice royal family . ”
Fabian found Liam’s green eyes strangely annoying when Liam straightened his back and said confidently .
“Since when did the Duke of Akshire become the Felice Kingdom’s hunting dog?”
Fabian’s words crossed the line, but Liam remained calm .

“First of all, our families have long been close friends . That’s why I also played an important part in the festival, and fortunately I was close enough to protect the princess . ”
Fabian had vaguely realized where his displeasure had come from . Whenever Liam said, “Princess,” for no reason, he was annoyed .
“It’s a long friendship between the two families who have left the relationship between master and slave . ”
“Friendship…” Fabian spoke in a cold tone .
“That’s why you dare to help the Imperial Family’s divorce?”
It was the first time that Fabian had met Liam in person . Still, he knew that Evelyn played a key role in filing a divorce petition with the Vatican . Naturally, there was no way that emotion might be good .
“I am too foolish to understand your meaning” Liam stepped out of the situation with a gentle smile .
“Well, I’ll remember you . ”
It was a voice mixed with threats . Close to the Vatican, he was the man who involved in his divorce with Evelyn . On top of that, Liam, who proudly claimed to have protected Evelyn, was very irritating .
“If something comes up about the incident, I’ll report it right away . ” Liam responded flexibly .
“I don’t need it . I don’t have to listen to the words of a man who can’t even look at the enemy properly . ”
“It can’t be helped, so I apologize . If you have nothing more to say, I’ll go back . ”
Fabian didn’t answer and watched Liam with his cold eyes . Liam soon took an example and withdrew from Fabian’s safety . Even after he left, the feeling of displeasure still didn’t go away .
“The people who are associated with the Vatican are always disrespectful . ”
On the one hand, it’s natural . While in an empire or under the control of an empire, Fabian ruled as Emperor . The Vatican was another mainstay of power .

Some small but wealthy countries such as the Felice Kingdom chose to side with the Vatican . And because they were guaranteed to be wealthy, their loyalty to Fabian was naturally diminished .
“Well, they have to ‘take root . ”
Fabian muttered low .
“Serus . ”
“Yes, Your Majesty . ”
In the shadow, Serus quietly took a step . He was always standing by Fabian like air and only appeared when his name was called .
“What about that cunning old man?”
“He’s on his way to the Vatican, showing off his contribution to defeating the demons . ”
Fabian frowned outright . He could fully imagine without seeing it .
“Are there any results of the investigation?”
“The body of Wyvern had decayed so quickly that little was left . ”
“That’s crazy . ”
If Fabian’s suspicions were correct, there must be some evidence . However, as soon as the Wyvern stopped breathing, the monster decomposed at a frightening speed and left nothing behind .
Fabian, angered by the fact that he was drinking water from the Pope, left the Imperial Palace and went personally . Still, this time, he was furious that he failed again .
“I’ve heard all the witnesses’ testimony . I’ll investigate further, but don’t look forward to it . ”
Fabian thoughtlessly tried to nod his head and recalled the words left by an arrogant Duke a while ago .

“······Wait, there is still one . ”
“We’ve done a full investigation . ”
“The Duke of Akshire said, The princess first threw herself to protect the little prince and she protected it herself . ”
“Yes . ”
Serus nodded, not knowing what to say .
“The Duke of Akshire was trained as a knight . But it was the princess who moved first . ”
“Ah…… That’s how it works . ”
Actually, that’s the weird part . In such a critical state, the Duke moved slower than the princess, and it was such a brief moment that he could only cover her back . It was strange, some parts didn’t fit .
“Empre… . , no . She is…… . ”
Fabian still couldn’t completely forget her title . He couldn’t help it because each time, he always called Evelyn by Empress’s name .
“She’s an ordinary woman, but she has a better sense of reflex than a man who has been trained as a knight, or he’s not as fast as he is . Well, she’s never been trained, and there’s no way she knows how to deal with demons . ”
Were they the demons?
Fabian thought of Evelyn, who had her eyes wide open and scared by a single bug in the past .
“I’ll have to ask her directly . ”
Fabian made his own decision .
