Chapter 55 Teacher, I miss you so much!

Tonight is just another quiet night for ordinary people.

But for others, it was a sleepless night.

The jester is working hard for his own promotion, and he wants to set the entire empire on fire!

Hadley is also constantly contacting his colleagues in the South. He must get the princess of the South back to her hometown!
Moon was calculating the timing and next plan. He needed to minimize the ripples caused by this incident!
And deep inside the Baratheon Palace.

The royal knights guarded the emperor's safety day and night.

But in the audience hall which should have been empty, the Queen was quietly listening to the reports from the spies below.

"Your Majesty, although the northern countries have not yet mobilized their troops, according to our intelligence, they are indeed actively preparing for war. This is the list of supplies we intercepted. It can serve as evidence!"

"Your Majesty, the Lu Family, the Ying Family and the other five families are secretly receiving envoys from the northern countries."

"Your Majesty, we still haven't found out the specific identity of the prophet demigod of the Lion family, but we are sure that you are right. He is the mastermind behind this series of events. The old lion is really old, and he was actually fooled by a prophet!"

Many people have not noticed a problem.

That was in Suras, the Queen came too fast!
She was so fast that even if Moon hadn't exiled the Demon Lord first, she would have arrived before the Demon Lord actually attacked Suras.

If Moon was not the demon hunter saint Constantine who specialized in fighting against the abyss, Moon would have run into the Queen directly.

Although the appearance of the saint caused unexpected ripples, the final outcome did not exceed the Queen's expectations.

The Lu family was the only one among the six nobles to have recovered a certain amount of vitality, but was proactively dealt with by the Shi family for political reasons.

The remaining Lion family also became the target of public criticism.

The other five families would rather meet with the envoys from the north secretly than discuss with the Lion family, which is also one of the Seven Lords.

In Moon's last lesson, the princess who lost everything did become a qualified queen.

Nothing in the spies' report exceeded the Queen's estimate.

Just develop according to what is available.

Then the land and power of Liu Gong will be completely and legally taken back by her.

The ambitions of the northern countries will also be extinguished by her, and she should be able to demand huge compensation or even cession of land.

For any monarch, this is a great achievement worthy of being written about.

But for the queen at this moment, she felt it was meaningless.

She could not feel the happiness that an emperor should have.

The reason she took action was only because she wanted to protect the only gift her teacher left her - this country.

She was originally a princess with nothing, and it was her teacher who risked her life to pave the way for her to gain everything.

For all this so-called everything, the princess who had nothing lost the only treasure she had.

Therefore, even she didn't know why she was alive.

She still works hard to protect and run the country.

At the very end, she asked:
"Have there been any changes with Lieutenant General Nelson and the Deputy Speaker? For example, have any strangers seen them?"

The spies looked at each other, and finally shook their heads together:

"Your Majesty, it is the same as before, no."

"Then go down."

The spies all said goodbye.

The Queen continued to stay where she was.

A moment later, a new spy quietly walked in and knelt in the hall.

“Did they lie?”

"No, Your Majesty."

Don’t trust anyone anymore, princess, please remember this.

"Why don't you leave?"

"Your Majesty, there is news from the southern border."

The moment the Queen heard the word "Southern Border", she stood up.

She asked with an eagerness and anticipation that she herself was not aware of:
"What is it?"

"The spies in the southern border said that they can only report to you in person, and also said that this is a matter of fundamental concern to this country!"

"Let him come up!"

The spies were somewhat surprised, for this was the first time they had seen such excitement.

The new spy walked quickly into the audience hall.

If Hadley were there, he would have discovered that this was one of the ten confidants he brought with him.

"What's going on? Is he back?!"

He must report to himself personally, and it concerns the foundation of this country.

What could this be?
This must be the return of the master of the southern territory!

It must be a teacher, it must be a teacher! No one else deserves these descriptions except him.

Whenever it comes to matters concerning her teacher, the Queen loses her sense of propriety and wisdom.

The spy didn't quite understand why the Queen was so excited, but he said truthfully:

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I just found a chance to get away and report now."

"Your Majesty, Potter Harry, this yellow-headed eagle of the Royal Capital Overwatch Council was transferred to the southern border. He was accused by the golden eagle Boris who went with him that he knew Lord Westeros."

"Golden Eagle Boris also claimed that he had a letter written by Lord Westeros, but I have no evidence for this or Lord Westeros's return, because the South Territory knows nothing about it."

"But one thing is certain. That is, according to the guidance of this Potter Harry, the demigod Hadley from the South found the bloodline of Lord Westeros in the imperial capital!"

"It's a girl. Her name is Rufus Kent. She was born in the second year of the Queen's calendar, the year after Suras was returned to you."

"This is her rubbing rune, your majesty!"

But before he could take out the rune, the spy heard the Queen's rage:
"impossible!"

The spy knelt down hastily and said:

"Your Majesty, I saw it with my own eyes. That girl passed the test of the Soul Libra. Twice!"

"And this is the scales. Lord Westeros's usual items have always been kept in the hands of the demigod Hadley, so I can only bring one of them."

"Tell me everything you know!"

The moment the Queen uttered these words, Libra flew into her hands.

The reason why the Queen was furious was not because her teacher had a daughter.

Instead, she was furious that the spy actually said that her teacher had a daughter!

That was simply impossible because she had no idea.

And the teacher said that during that terrible night, the teacher told him personally that he had never lied to himself once!
So that's impossible, that can't be the teacher's daughter.

But what is going on? !
The Libra remained the same as it was during the test.

The Queen could even see the astonishment of Hadley and the others when they discovered this scene, and their ecstasy and piety a moment later.

But this is impossible!
The teacher has never lied to me before!
The Duke told the Queen not to trust anyone anymore, but the Princess still believed in her teacher.

The spy below continued to tell the story.

Although the queen heard everything, her eyes were always fixed on the scales.

Finally, the Queen stretched out her finger toward the drop of blood on the scale that had long since dried up.

As the queen's fingers approached, the already dried blood became moist again.

After it touched her finger, the queen put it into her lips without hesitation.

After a moment, the queen's mouth curled up slightly.

It's really impossible!
The teacher certainly didn't lie to her!
But why is Soul Libra like this?
Finally, the Queen asked the spy:

"You said that the mysterious person that Potter and Harry mentioned asked him to protect this girl named Rufus Kent?"

"Yes, Your Majesty! Please make a holy judgment as soon as possible, otherwise something terrible will happen in the southern border!"

But the Queen did not answer him, but asked another question:

"Did the golden eagle named Boris really say that the yellow-headed eagle named Potter Harry had the handwriting of the Grand Duke of Westeros on him?"

"Yes, but we have no evidence. Perhaps, perhaps this was just a plan by the prophet?"

At this point, the spy said with almost certainty:

"Your Majesty, this must be the terrible plot of the prophet from the Lion family! He knows what the appearance of the heir to the South Territory means to the empire!"

This reasonable speculation successfully made the Queen's heart tremble.

"Go down, I will make my own judgment."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wait until the huge audience hall is truly empty.

The Queen just talked to herself to convince herself:
"The teacher said that he was worried about me facing everything in the future alone, so the death at the end must have been a lie to me, definitely! Definitely!"

"Absolutely not. It's definitely not some damn prophet's stupid plot!"

"I have to meet that girl!"

But in the end, the queen who wanted to stand up fell down in front of the throne exhausted.

The princess whose crown fell to the ground covered her heart in pain and cried:
"It must be, it must be, Teacher, you must not have lied to me, right?!"

"I don't want to be alone. I really don't want to be alone with nothing!"

"Teacher, I miss you so much! I really miss you!"

What is more terrifying than despair is that the hope just found is shattered in the blink of an eye.

This is so terrible that even finding hope seems so difficult and terrifying.

　This is the update for the 30th. It was put on the shelves on the 1st. I have to prepare for the update and check the outline on the 30th, so I'm posting the draft now.
