Barbarians
When the door of the Emperor’s room opened, General Theobarlt stood up and walked towards her. He immediately noticed the stain on her lips but he remained vigilant while washing away his irritation. He took Darya’s hand and kissed the back of her palm. “I am back, Lysandra.” He walked closer to her, wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her head. “I miss you, that's why I came back for a while.”The first thing that Darya noticed was specifically the losing of his weight and he looked so down. She frowned and reached her hand to pinch his broad shoulders. “How did you lose weight?” She looked up to his eyes and noticed that he looked restless. There were dark circles under his eyes. It is breaking her heart.General Theobarlt did not reply for a few seconds, making her think that there is something going on.“Is there something you are not telling me?” Darya inquired as she reached to touch his cheek.General Theobarlt closed his eyes to feel her touch.

Darya finally rested after having a meal with Zale. Because she felt relaxed, she decided to go to her chambers for a while to rest. And while she was resting, with her permission, Lavenorth checked the documents she had been doing all night. And it surprised him to see the content of it. Emperor Darya, undoubtedly, used her one time opportunity of a forced power to make an Imperial Law. “Forced Power” is a one-time opportunity given to an Emperor. When an Emperor established a law for the empire, he would normally proceed to the process which is having 50 percent approval from the nobles before it becomes an Imperial law. When an Emperor uses “Forced Power”, nobles would need not to interfere and whatever the Emperor decided, the nobles do not have the right to show disagreement.At this moment, Emperor Darya just made an Imperial law regarding the giving of rewards to the family of the knights who have fought for the Empire.

He stood up properly and sat opposite her. Now, he had his usual business smile. “I

Rebellion
Upon hearing what Zale said, Darya already has a presumption that she will believe. It was just a presumption but it is too painful to claim as just a presumption when she knows that it is going to happen in a minute. She did not interrogate Zale anymore. She just could not hear more about it as she felt like listening to it would be the end of her world.“Lavenorth, assign the best of the knights to protect the fifth consort.” She had no time to think of many things as her mind was already occupied with too many possibilities.

Alluka, on the other hand, laughed and carried her in his arms. He then kissed her head.“Are you alright? How about our son?” He asked.“We are fine but you,” Ejila hit his chest.“What happened in the Imperial Palace?
