Chapter 124: 124

Cade swept Abella’s hair.

It would have been weirder to regain those harsh memories and stay sane. No matter how strong Abella was on the inside.

Cade was accompanied by the high priest, not the imperial physician. It was because it seemed that divine power would be more helpful than medicine to those who were tired in mind and body. Besides, it seemed like it would be good to examine Abella’s condition, who was born on the day of Skellus.

According to the words of Magic Tower Master, when the magic that has been stacked up like this is simply destroyed, it must be possible to have the power to resist magic.

Cade was guessing that it might have been due to the influence of Skellus.

Cade was holding his breath as the High Priest examined Abella.

And he asked impatiently when the High Priest stepped back.

“High Priest.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“What about Abella?”

The high priest turned around. The old man’s face had a kind smile. He had a face that was too calm for a person who had been defeated and exiled in the conflict within the temple.

Cade frowned. Of course, the high priest had a face like that the whole time, but it was worse today.

“Your Majesty.”

And the high priest opened his lips as if to return Cade for the strangeness he felt.

“Lady Abella is under extreme care by Skellus.”

The high priest’s voice was strangely muffled.

It looked like it was going to crumble at any moment, but it had a deep longing in it. It was the voice of the man who found the embers in the ashes that had been extinguished.

The high priest’s eyes gleamed with flames.

He pretends to be kind, but the truth is, he is boiling.

“Extreme care by Skellus?”

Cade laughed.

“Yes. Skellus helps. Lady Abella was under the protection of Skellus, so the magic wasn’t perfect.”

Didn’t Skellus kill her? It was a question he wanted to ask, but now he can’t. He doesn’t know what Skellus’ grace was, but it didn’t look that great. Especially since he had already suffered Abella’s death.

Cade asked sternly.

“Therefore. How is Skellus caring for Abella?”

It was a voice full of ridicule, but the high priest didn’t care.

“Because she was born with a body full of divinity, she will soon be restored to health.”

“A body full of divinity…”

Cade and the High Priest’s hypothesis were correct. A child born on the day of Skellus is not cursed, but divine. There is no way for such children to drive others into misfortune.

After all, Abella was the victim of the political games of the temple. Cade rubbed his lips.

He went to the high priest’s seat and sat down beside Abella.

Abella’s pale face hurts his chest. Her white, cracked red lips were dry as if they would never be able to live again.

“Even in this way, she is receiving the protection of Skellus.”

“Because even the power of God is not perfect.”

“Nothing is perfect. So, what are you going to do from now on?”

It was a quiet question.

Inside it was the implicit question of what Cade could do for Abella. The high priest shook his head.

“I will do my best to help Skellus find the right place. In addition, we will punish the temples that have deceived the people and desecrated the empire to honor the victims.”

“Good. The high priest must keep his word. You will turn Skellus into a god and let him build a new temple. With the support of the imperial family.”

It was a statement that shook the religious world.

After Skellus was branded a heretic, all temples were abolished. But the imperial family built a temple dedicated to Skellus. It was the same as recognizing Skellus as an official religion, not a heresy.

It was also what the priests of Skellus, who had been persecuted, longed for.

To restore honor and regain the status of a priest again.

“God will take care of you too.”

“It must be as you say, High Priest. I am never merciful when it comes to Abella. I will make her the empress.”

Cade’s red eyes flashed. His eyes were sharp like a viper that would not let go once bitten.

The high priest swallowed his saliva.

If he fails to keep his orders, Cade will take revenge on the High Priest and his followers.

‘Never merciful when it comes to Abella’

Eventually, Cade threatened to turn the religious world upside down if this happened. The priest was stepping into risky work. However, it was also true that it was as fascinating as the danger. Skellus will stand proudly on the streets again.

Wasn’t it the high priest’s lifelong wish?

He had no reason not to accept this deal.

“Yes, yes. your Majesty.”

“Good.”

Cade touched Abella’s forehead.

The fever still hadn’t gone down. The high priest said the fever would go down naturally, but Cade wanted Abella to be at ease right away.

Cade frowned and gestured his chin at the High Priest.

“Then, shall we do everything we came all the way here for today?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The High Priest bowed his head deeply.

“Go back first.”

Cade lightly patted the high priest on the back. He looked back puzzled, but Cade had already turned his attention away from him.

Cade and the attendants who accompanied him put the high priest in the carriage. The Emperor was left behind in Amerigo.

From here on, it was an area the high priest was not interested in.

‘The world will turn upside down.’

Holding down his pounding heart, the high priest burst out laughing like a madman.

All those who persecuted him and insulted Skellus, he will see them all crawling on the floor.

The temple was the den of politicians.

They do not hesitate to attack priests who worship the same god in order to gain power and profit.

Divinity had long since departed from them. To hide it, the Skellus Day is raised a little more.

In order to make it appear that the divinity remains, misfortune is pronounced on children born on the day of Skellus.

It was possible to reform the temple that had survived that way. There was no reason not to be happy.

Cade remained in Amerigo to meet Enoch.

Cade, who did not leave even after the business was over, was led to the parlor. He was just a dangerous opponent to throw away. Because Cade was the emperor who ruled this country.

And when Cade gave orders as if Amerigo was his domain, they couldn’t refuse.

Both Enoch and April were called into the drawing room.

“Greetings, the Emperor of the Empire.”

“Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Enoch and April followed in turn. Cade, who was sitting in an arrogant position, gestured with his chin.

“Sit down.”

Enoch’s cheekbones blushed with contempt, but he couldn’t resist. He was a staunch underdog in front of Cade.

“Are you Princess April?”

“Yes, yes.”

April lowered her head more deeply. Although the tone did not seem polite at all, April could not refute it.

She knew without even asking. Cade was a dangerous person. His posture with his hands on his lap with his hands together matched like a painting.

He looked great on the outside, but the blood flowing from his dark red eyes seemed to slaughter April at any moment.

“At Clemington, you’ve implemented the terms well and will be rewarded for it. Reinforcements are ready for Clemington.”

“……thank you. Your Majesty.”

“I’ll be moving the troops on the border, so they won’t arrive late in Clemington.”

Cade said lightly.

In fact, it had already begun to move, so there was no such thing as a military secret. So Cade said lightly. And those who would fill the empty border had already arrived at the border.

The army guarding the border was not as good as the elite knights of the Imperial Knights corps, but they were counted among the best.

This means that the Empire also took this issue seriously. As Prince Enoch, this was something to be thankful for.

He was in charge of this matter.

“…Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“Because I have to keep my promise. I hope that Clemington will keep their promise to be at the forefront of the Empire.”

Cade shrugged his shoulders. Next, his slow gaze turned to April.

“Grand Duke April.”

“Wh, what?”

April, surprised to hear that she is the Grand Duke, raised her head.

“There was no conferment ceremony, but the princess was awarded the rank of Grand Duke from the moment she entered the empire. So, I will ask the Grand Duke. Do you know why I made you stay in Amerigo?”

It was a voice that had subsided without any lightness until now. Cade’s face hardened.

Fear stood in April’s round eyes.

“Ah, ah……”

Cade raised his lips as he looked at April, who couldn’t even answer.

“It was meant to protect Abella. Well, that’s your value. Keeping Abella Amerigo safe.”

This was the reason why Cade did not tell her to return and remained in Amerigo. To give April the right thing to do.

“Once again, if something like today happens, you will have to pay the price.”

Cade spoke slowly but clearly. April realized that it was the truth.
