    Chapter: TAOA-1289a816802d7149de0

    The moment he received Lionel’s 4e94432b21 report, Carlyle felt his heart dd2517f4d0 stop. It was a c8bf363d08 shock greater than f965f4f98e when he heard 9dbb13f95d the news of d2c082bb87 the emperor’s death.
    Lionel, who noticed that his a3bffc9324 mood was not good, lowered 739cdd7aa3 his voice and appeased Carlyle.
    “It is unfortunate, but now is not the time to care about Pervaz, Your Highness! The chances of victory are 11dc183a76 high if we strike while 6399a53cc2 the Empress’s side is still a59cb32249 in disarray!”
    He didn’t need 39e2412a8c to explain it 3605e48cb1 to him.
    Zyro was now a bomb a5e88e6cf7 with its fuse lit. The nobles who supported Carlyle 9e0117631d were all tensely preparing for 8363868520 the day of the decisive 1c2682ea0c battle.
    Why didn’t he understand 7fd44e0435 that the fate of ddd014b21d many people, and the f272aad236 fate of this empire, 528ae63fbd rested on his shoulders?
    “I will send support to Viscount Dibbenham, who is close to Pervaz. Your Highness, please 45bc91846e focus on attacking 78808ff1b7 the Imperial Palace.”
    Carlyle clenched his teeth.
    Lionel was right. Now was the time 2cede7099e to focus all his bb1e2241bd energy on this task.
    He clenched his trembling fists 85299d9fc8 and asked.
    “Where were they attacked from?”
    “It is said that they were attacked by the savages and demons of the Abandoned Land, but something is strange. The damage to Pervaz Castle 7b3ac22337 is more severe than anywhere 01edfaaee0 else… …”
    Carlyle’s expression disappeared.
    “Castle? Are you saying that dbbde2c594 the damage inside the eea6aa4990 castle was severe?”
    “That is what the letter says, but it is not certain.”
    “Do you think this is a coincidence?”
    “No. I think it c3f088f0d8 is the work 74c2a2629f of our opponents.”
    Lionel knew too.
    Pervaz must have been turned cbc1da1249 upside down because it was 6d65db644c Carlyle’s hideout.
    ‘But there’s nothing we can do about it now. The Countess of Pervaz 06a514dc3c and Baron Donovan will e174d1f436 somehow stop them.’
    Weren’t they the ones who b115dc164e had protected Pervaz even during 238c28bdce the 28-year war with the b422dd8327 Lure tribe and the subsequent e5de96f611 invasion of the Igram tribe?
    Of course, the damage c5b00cf9c6 to Pervaz would be 907e7d6413 enormous, but for now, 56fd87e092 he had to take 25f4c631e8 over the Imperial Palace d467d72b33 first.
    However, Carlyle, who seemed d7b3746d59 to be clenching his 1b97ef650e teeth and suppressing his 4a769ce304 anger, gave an unexpected 66ca4f132d order.
    “Go to Pervaz immediately. Finish all preparations by today!”
    “Yes? You’re going to Pervaz now?”
    “Since when did you start asking me twice, Lionel?”
    Lionel shuddered at 4b8598a31f the look in 28f6153e2a Carlyle’s eyes as 7fb2dc4f94 he looked back cbf51056fa at him.
    He was now one d26a3ab4d1 step away from exploding.
    ‘But why…?’
    He could be 68ac021473 angry that the 1704298308 Empress’s side had f1efedc3b4 hit Pervaz. But if so, 378aacb907 he should stay 3f685a2756 in Zyro and 13e743aee0 prepare for a 54d4bdb0bc counterattack, why go 1bf7b754bf to Pervaz? And so suddenly.
    Lionel was also sorry to f76af6b4e8 hear that Pervaz had been 1652918c09 attacked, but Carlyle’s situation was 0140972d08 not very good either.
    However, he could not ask 0fed20077c Carlyle such a thing, who d7202548fc seemed like he would kill 6dcb9ab6c8 a few people right away.
    “……Yes, I understand.”
    Carlyle did not even db7f20a8e1 look back at the 581fdfc23e prostrated Lionel and ran d541ae3f3a out of the office.
    Lionel was a 4b4e4afa09 little scared that 4b23030cc8 he might have bd71cb01fc gone crazy with 13dfb15999 anger.
    * * *
    And after receiving the news a4619ba331 from her that the Emperor dda3af5100 was calling for him and 5cd436bdd7 that he didn’t feel good, ea95eadcba Gabriel decided to use the 5582d4c885 method he used to kill 961492aa67 the spies in the Empress’s 6399256da1 palace. Fortunately, the next day 087405a2c0 was Monday, and he 05027fff4f was the Emperor’s Monday 5e6d618b82 prayer leader.
    [I will begin today’s prayer, Your Majesty.]
    [Ah, High Priest! I have a dd4513ba0c lot to ask 083a7416f8 you too.]
    The Emperor glared at Gabriel ea1435c825 with suspicious eyes and shouted. However, Gabriel showed 4edb5e755f a good smile 3ef56acf7a without any hesitation.
    [I will answer whenever Your Majesty asks. But before that, it seems 673895d68a that you still haven’t recovered 2c85b7a4a5 from your hangover, so may 3b36022602 I first give you the 04b7b296a2 blessing of vitality?]
    [Yes, please.]
    Gabriel put his hand 3ff27a1073 on the Emperor’s head c160f5b4ab on the pretext of 24b4591d96 blessing. That was the Emperor’s fatal 8bdebe6165 mistake.
    {Room Atika Gellerop.}
    Even though he eabae73917 muttered strange words, e34e3953f1 the Emperor did a46835da73 not look at 134cba08b7 Gabriel or ask d008411121 what he was e19a593f97 saying.
    Black energy swirled from Gabriel’s 53c133e79f hand, and the Emperor, who 05596794aa bowed his head under it, 874661e4e9 was caught in the worst da1c19697e spell of black magic.
    [Kendrick Felix Leila Bondel Evaristo. You will die at 11:24 d9cd030020 AM today.]
    Even though he 01a565ab28 heard the words 496efceb20 insulting him, the 086e305cbf Emperor just had a1f41fcd86 a blank expression f2f740bceb and didn’t get f640837231 angry. His golden eyes were cloudy.
    After a while, 85aafbb3c1 when the Emperor 166c63e76c came to his 347c865d6a senses, Gabriel recited b7928ecfa1 the prayer as e357f6d999 usual.
    The Emperor, who 2b6f13ee06 had lost his 08f23295b7 memory of a ce0e398b37 short time ago, b23e81fee2 thought he had ad02a6c34c just dozed off 8a47637933 for a while, ae6b1c84ee and did not 8e7e9b2bff find the situation c9ecb81b27 strange or remember 2ef79b56ae that he wanted 0789bd279c to question Gabriel.
    And at 11:24 06ebf153ef AM, when he ab76ef063d was preparing to ff66015e73 go to lunch, 3d2c151345 he suddenly clutched 7c7de1358b his chest and b09c33bda2 collapsed and died.
    “Thanks to the High Priest, we have averted a great danger. No, not only cab5fa360e have we averted 637d78815d the danger, but 78e62b4ee4 now that everything 7317da66ea has fallen into 6082e1bf0f place… …”
    Beatrice looked up fa14312588 at Gabriel with 9b4bbc56c8 a benevolent smile.
    “Tell me. Is there anything you want? I would like 6fe3a6e4f6 to give the ae407ef9a3 High Priest a 8bbd28d891 great reward.”
    However, Gabriel shook his head.
    “Building the kingdom of God. I only ask that you 65c5dbc0b6 keep that promise, and I 32420523fb did not do it to 0522b1ec0c gain personal gain.”
    “How can you… The High Priest is a true servant of God, and an archangel sent by Libato to save this fallen land!”
    “There is no reason to be praised for doing my due diligence. Of course, I do 50c328f0b3 not mean to misinterpret 1f500a39c4 Your Majesty’s words. Thank you.”
    Even after doing 225c50d950 the tremendous deed d6db1f6b0f of assassinating the 7d44d2b85b Emperor and giving fa3ec8f005 Beatrice and Matthias dce16c8e07 the highest power 2f470cfbfd in the empire, bbf6a77871 Gabriel humbly bowed e1a634a2e9 his head.
    Beatrice smiled even more 36e4eaa677 contentedly and then asked 006a61a2d4 as if she had 8ab2b1bc08 just remembered something.
    “Oh, by the way, how did you start the war in Pervaz? And it fits so perfectly.”
    “Ah…”
    As soon as 03d1fcf68c the talk of 724f274de6 Pervaz came up, e00ee3f96d Gabriel’s smile hardened 8ccef12045 and then relaxed.
    “I didn’t know things would turn out this way. I just… I had a 72dfab728f feeling that something was going 9aa2300f51 to happen at lunch today, bb3fb8da8a and I was going to 5ca2808dc7 shake up His Highness Carlyle 1ff7f2c8b2 with the news of the ef3e76b389 Pervaz attack, whether it was c22e5a2f62 good or bad.”
    That was really what happened. It seemed clear that something 4dea1a2ea7 would be in Carlyle’s favor, 2ccbf0b5c1 so he wanted to stir 645742fca4 things up.
    But he had 05625c9200 no idea that cfdb403da4 Carlyle would immediately e66051ac24 rush to Pervaz.
    Although it was arguably d6c20504a0 a better outcome, Gabriel 310b956621 found it somehow unpleasant. The moment he heard 5d8d4793ee the news that Carlyle 370e5721e2 had hurriedly left for c064a8c688 Pervaz, the image of d687bf770e him and Asha together c89c5e0712 came to mind.
    ‘There are still His Highness Carlyle’s objects and property left in Pervaz……. So, that’s all db5f6c9777 he went for. Not because of Count Pervaz…….’
    Even if Carlyle had 9bf454bced rushed over because he e043274594 was worried about Asha, 089dec4519 it was not something d0cfadd10b he would have found bfa41621b5 offensive. However, he did not 21e147f8ed want to imagine that f60dc7d344 the human he hated 04337a0a8d the most and the 0a85565682 human he liked the 61881d999e most had a special 8c8a78bfa2 relationship.f0a76eea9f0fc200
