Chapter 232: 232 About an hour after the fighting tournament started . Orihime noticed a strange appearance in the arena .

“Muh?”

The number of people whose faces seemed to be out of order has increased . Only one or two are visible . Orihime frowned at the situation where more and more people turned pale .

“The Majesty the Emperor” “What’s wrong? Senki-dono?” “Do you feel something strange?” “Huh? It’s strange . Did Senkiden feel uncomfortable?”

Just a sense of discomfort . There are only a few people who are sick because they are held during the day . A sense of incongruity that can be taken . Nevertheless, both Orihime and Johannes noticed that discomfort .

“Bring the guests here . Let’s protect them with the concubine . ” “Thank you . Franz, are you okay?” “No problem . I will arrange immediately . ” Empress, please invite the guest . “

With that said, Franz and Brunhild leave the room . Seeing Johannes asking the Prime Minister for permission, Orihime looked suspicious . The emperor’s request for permission from the Prime Minister is a strange composition .

T r an s l a t ed b y Jpｍ t l . coｍ “Why do you get the permission of the Prime Minister?” “The plan of the Prime Minister should not be disturbed . This time, I have left most of it to the Prime Minister . “

Johannes opened his eyes slightly in Orihime’s words and smiled bitterly .

“Is the rumor coming from Arnold?” “Not a rumor . My concubine knows . There is always an unpleasant smell flowing in this city . Will something always happen?” “No confirmation” “If there is no confirmation The concubine bought a little more of his Majesty, but was he wrong? “

Johannes sighs small in Orihime’s words . He looked straight at Orihime .

“I don’t care what you think . The eagle does not doubt the rebellion of his son without any certainty . His son is not stupid enough to cause a great disadvantage to the empire . ” “It’s not the heart . It’s a matter of lack of confirmation . What to do if you’re wrong? If the emperor seizes one of the leading candidates without assurance during the battle for emperor, the battle for emperor is nullified . And Gordon who will take decisive action to resolve his suspicions, and that will end up in a civil war . “

If you move, you will definitely be a civil war . That was Johannes’ position . It doesn’t matter if Gordon was planning a rebellion . If Gordon is killed, those under Gordon will not be convinced . Even without Gordon, he will take action or hold a grudge . Empire battle to decide the next emperor . That the emperor intervenes with strong powers is an act of getting back from every direction . It’s not as simple as killing and ending .

“So what are you going to do?” “I don’t do anything .

Tra ns lated b y ｊpｍ t l . ｃoｍ That was Johannes’ answer . If the emperor can’t move, it’s only necessary for the minions to move . So Johannes left everything to the Prime Minister .

“I can only say that there are few things I can do, but it is difficult for the emperor to intervene . I cannot intervene as a presidency . I can only do what I can . ” Is all you need to break through and put the empire in your hand . That is another hand . “

To date, few have tried to rely on force to dominate the throne . But none of them succeeded . The Emperor has permission to do anything with the army . Taking action without permission from the emperor is a rebellion, and the emperor as well as other candidates will be turned to the enemy . So the empire struggle ends with a fight for power . Turning the emperor into the enemy head-to-head is something stupid candidates know to be stupid .

“Is winning the rebellion one way to win?” “Birth of a strong emperor is the essence of the throne battle . If a strong emperor is born, the process can be ignored . “

Johannes then sat back on the chair . His face looked like Orihime as he was very old . Orihime thought that the true intentions would be different, even if saying so in words .

” . . . I wouldn’t have been worried about this if my firstborn was alive . ” “I heard that he wasn’t fighting for the imperial throne . Why did he do that? “Everyone acknowledged . It was evident that the crown prince would not win in the event of an emperor struggle, and nobody would compete with him . Everyone expected to see the ideal emperor . The Prince who ends the history of the throne battle was supposed to be . . . “

There is no need to fight if all humans are satisfied . You don’t need to compete if you know from the beginning that you will be a strong emperor . That is why the Crown Prince was supposed to be the first emperor to enter the throne without fighting for the throne . One end point . He did not doubt that he would accomplish many feats in his reign . Johannes knew that he could come up with alternatives to the imperial battle .

“There is no supreme successor anymore, so a struggle for imperialism took place . The eagle tolerated it, for anyone other than the Crown Prince thought he needed a struggle for emperor, but he would think from time to time . “Is it bearish? Something that might be the Emperor of the Empire . ” Someone seems to be able to yield, but . . . they don’t seem to have grown since the struggle for the throne, they seem to be rather stupid, but still shake the empire itself I want to believe that there are no fools . ”

It was like a desire . However, that desire is not fulfilled . When the Empress and the Prime Minister enter the room with the guest . Orihime felt huge magic . It originated from beneath the arena .

“Is this a curse?”

While establishing a barrier throughout the room, Orihime immediately identified the identity of the object emitted from beneath the arena . A huge curse barrier . It was laid beneath the arena, casting curses on the arena . Those who seemed unwell were sick in the aftermath before the trigger . Many began to rush in the amphitheater . The same was true of ordinary people, as well as fighter contestants, soldiers and knights . It is not a curse that kills instantly . However, it was not a level of curse that could be fought .

“What’s going to trigger something like this on this scale? . . . Did you start from before?”

Muttering himself, Orihime turned his eyes on Johannes .

“It’s a curse of weakness . It’s all over this arena . It’s safe if you’re in the concubine’s barrier, but it’s not a decent battle . “

With that said, Johannes looked at the Prime Minister . You only have to go outside if the curse is hung on the arena, but those who plan such things do not go out so easily .

Tr ans l a t ed b y Jpmtl . co ｍ “I see . I was wondering what the members of the Maoku Public Corporation were doing underground, but it seems that this was the preparation . ” “It’s too late even if there is a confluence now . “Of course, but I apologize first . It’s a complete act of authority . Please forgive me . “

Johannes nodded several times, feeling unpleasant for the head of the minister . After all, he decided not to complain no matter what he did . And the Orihimes go outside on the suggestion of the Prime Minister . But .

“I have been waiting for you .

At the exit, fully equipped Gordon was waiting . Surrounding it are also fully equipped soldiers . The soldiers are all around the arena . Looking at it, Orihime mutters small .

“I was a fool . ” “Yes, I’m sorry for my son . ” “You’re bad . My father . What should I do to make me a prince right away?” I’ll tell you that you weren’t bad, Gordon . “

Johannes then slowly pulled out his sword .

“Stupid son, I’m sorry . At least give my head to the eagle, and I’ll bury him as a prince . ” “My father seems to have been senile . Do you know this situation? The general who cooperated with me There’s a lot of them! That group is now under my control! There’s an overwhelming difference in power! You won’t win! “

Gordon raised his sword high when he said .
