Cale Meijer von Imperlian paid a visit to Jace Green’s dormitory room while his subordinates guarded them from the outside. When the door is first opened, Emperor Cale’s loyal minister recognizes Jace Green and is surprised at how similar he looks to the young lady in the Emperor’s heart. He eventually accepts the rumors that the Emperor had an illegitimate child.

They came here today because the Emperor wanted to meet Jace Green. He was certain that the Royal Couple would have another heated argument the moment the Emperor returned to the Main Palace. He couldn’t help but sigh as he imagined the mayhem the Queen would create. After all, there has never been an Empress in the Main Palace, only a Queen who rules over the harem. This is because the Emperor only wanted one woman to be his Empress, and that lady is Jace Green’s mother.

The father and son exchanged glances but didn’t say anything. The area fell silent, leaving the two in an awkward situation. This is Jace Green’s first meeting with his father. His mother would always tell him about his father’s power. He is a powerful man who reigns over the Imperium. He had unfortunately met his Imperial Uncle, the Grand Marshal. His Imperial Uncle had a more imposing aura and elegant strength than his Emperor Father. That is the true pinnacle of the warrior’s strength.

In the end, it was the king who had spoken first. “How are you? I told your mother to come with me to the Imperium but… she said that the life of the commoner is more suitable for her. I can’t go against her likes and can only leave. Jace Green, please don’t hate me, your father. That throne was something I also didn’t want.” Cale Meijer von Imperlian said.

Jace Green’s eyes were full of disbelief. He doesn’t believe the words this Emperor is saying right now. Who wouldn’t want to become an Emperor? That’s a position others could only dream about but never have.

The Emperor notices his son’s distrusting eyes and chuckles, “Have you ever wondered why the legend of the Royal Family says that they have the bloodline of the Dragon but the current Royal Family only has Lions as Quantum Beast? This is because I am an adopted prince of the last royal family. The only true blood royalty that still exists is my elder brother, Caesar Mitchell von Imperlian. Unfortunately, he can’t sit on the throne.” Cale Meijer von Imperlian said.

Jace Green knew about some things regarding the Royal Family and his Imperial Uncle’s current situation. He assumed, “Is it because of Imperial Uncle’s Mental Riots?”

“That is one reason but the biggest one is… he also didn’t want to become the Emperor and instead abolished the Monarchy. The Noble Family doesn’t agree and is pushed to the throne. They blackmailed me with the life of your mother, I can only comply.” Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian.

Silence~

Emperor Cale suddenly said, “It’s hard for me to leave the Palace as there are too many of them that want to stake my throne. Even though I don’t want that seat, I can’t let it fall on someone’s hands. If it ended up in someone’s hands my brother doesn’t approve. He… He will massacre the whole royal family. That’s the oath I agree with my brother in exchange for sitting on the throne for him. The law wouldn’t be able to punish him as he was the last blueblood of the former royal family.”

He finally asked the most important question in his heart, “How is your mother doing?”

“Mom is living well. The village of that small star had accepted us. They also didn’t agree to give me to the Imperial Uncle when we first met. They are good people. When I told them I wanted to study so I could return one day and make our little star more advanced than before, they were hesitant to let me leave. Only when Mom explained to everyone that it’s good to study in the First Military Imperial School did they agree. I have no interest in the throne. Can you inform your children not to bother me? They almost harmed my friend yesterday.” Jace Green said.

Emperor Cale recalled the reports he had received the day before. He was aware that the Crown Prince had assigned one of his subordinates to look into his younger brother, Jace Green. But that subordinate is truly heinous. He despises the weak and mediators. As a result, when he saw a group of weak ordinary students and the Dean, a Mediator who came for his rounds, a fight broke out on the spot, almost injuring an ordinary student, Yara von Chrysalis.

His thoughts were, ‘That student called Yara must be my son’s friend. If not for the sudden action taken by a sentient plant in his possession no one would know how things would have ended. That child might have died under the hand of that Adjudicator who was suffering from mild mania.’

“I’m not here to ask you to inherit the throne. My plan is to abolish the Monarchy and my elder brother agrees to it. But you must acknowledge your identity, so I can openly protect you. After all, even if you decline the opportunity to sit on the throne, your brothers might not believe you. Especially the eldest, your second brother also declines the throne but he is one of the best candidates for the throne so I don’t know whether to believe him or not.” Emperor Cale said.

Jace Green understands the circumstances of the Royal Family and says, “I agree to change my name.”

“Good, I will arrange a banquet for your return to society. Your Imperial Uncle will also attend. You can bring your friend with you.” Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian said. He prepares to leave as he already has what he wants.

Jace Green sent his father through the door; ever since Emperor Cale appeared before him, he had never addressed that person as “father.” He actually didn’t see the point to call him as one.

The Emperor didn’t mind Jace Green’s distant demeanor because he knew it would take time for the youngest of his children to warm up to him. He walked away, followed by his minister and others. The people who had left with the emperor lowered their heads to greet Jace Green before leaving. This is to show their respect for him, who is descended from the Royal Family.

Jace Green heard the voice of Rozen in his head asking, “Aren’t you happy to meet your father, Master?”

“It’s not like that. I am happy but also a bit angry. The Edge star I came from is indeed small and poor. For my mother who had to raise me alone of course there is no way it would be easy. I had always been jealous of my friends who had their father. He happens to not be there when I need him and now that I am almost an Adult, I don’t know how I should treat him.” Jace Green said as he headed back to his room after the back Emperor Cale disappeared from his line of sight.

The Main Palace revealed Jace Green’s identity following this meeting between father and son. The Royal Family only mentioned having the youngest prince, but as for who it was, he would be introduced to society at the Emperor’s Royal Banquet. It would take place on weekends as planned.

When the other members of the royal family learned of the existence of the youngest prince, their reactions varied. Those vying for the throne were all intrigued by their new rival. The Crown Prince and Second Prince had anticipated this and reacted calmly. The Queen was nearly insane with rage, especially after learning the identity of Jace Green’s mother.

At the Queen’s Chamber…

Almost everything that could be broken had been broken, and the expensive vases and tea set were now scattered on the floor. Some maids were hiding behind the guards as they witnessed the queen’s wild tantrums. Estrella Nova von Imperlian is the name of the Queen.

She is the Crown Prince’s biological mother. She is a member of the Nova Clam, which governs the majority of noble families other than the royal family. Unfortunately, their influence is negligible in comparison to the Imperlian.

They were also the ones who plotted and spread the rumor that the Eldest Prince, Caesar Mitchell von Imperlian, had gone insane as a result of continuous Mental Riots. They used the public to dethrone the only True Blood of the Royal Family and install someone they could control on the throne. Cale Meijer von Imperlian, the last royal family’s adopted prince, became their most excellent pawn, and when the woman he loved was held as a hostage, he had no choice but to do what he wanted.

But, at the last minute, Prince Caesar Mitchell von Imperlian stepped in and said that no one from the Nova Clan or any noble families associated with them could become Empress because he would destroy the Royal Family instead. Despite being the Royal Family’s last blue blood prince, his strength and his black dragon Quantum Beast are the most powerful.

Only the noble families can agree to his request. This is why Estrella Nova von Imperlian can only become a Queen rather than the Empress.

Cale Meijer von Imperlian had sat on the throne for a long time, and he had gathered enough allies to support him. They were strong enough to compete with the Nova Clan. The Queen had also done everything she could to ensure that her son was Crown Prince, but she knew that unless her son sat on the throne, the Royal Family would always be Imperlian rather than Nova. Who would have guessed that the stupid commoner bitch her husband adores would give birth to a prince? It can only mean that they were meeting together behind her back.

Queen Estrella Nova von Imperlian mumbled like a crazy lady as he sat on the couch filled with holes made by her nails.

“This is not possible. The throne can only be owned by the Nova Family. I won’t allow that illegitimate child to exist. But that bastard husband of mine would definitely protect him. now that he officially announced his existence. I can only kill the woman!!!”

In a fit of rage, the Queen ordered the assassination of Jace Green’s mother. What she didn’t realize was that everything was too late, as the Grand Duke had purchased the Edge Star and given it to Jace Green as a gift from an uncle. The original did this so Jace Green would agree to accompany him to the capital.

The Grand Duke’s soldiers were now guarding the Edge Star. They were preventing any Nova Clan members from entering. They could use force if they wanted to, but even the weakest of the warriors serving the Grand Duke is A-ranked. It was like an egg slamming into a stone. They were powerless to stop it.

As soon as the Queen issued the orders, Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian received word from his spy…his face darkened in anger, but he tried to remain calm. He was well aware of how the Nova Clan had used his beloved to force him to work for them. He did his best after becoming Emperor to gather allies and subordinates, and with his elder brother supporting him from the shadows, he eventually gathered enough power to contend with the Noble Clans.

“Your Majesty, what should be done? Should we send some of our people to the Edge Star where the Empress is staying?”

“There is no need for now. My elder brother’s soldiers were stationed there on purpose. Even if the Noble Families made a move together they wouldn’t be able to move my brother. Continue to collect evidence against the Nova Clan and the other clans under them. I must sweep them all away and lessen their influence in the Imperium.” Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian commanded.

“As you wish, Your Majesty!” ．

Cale Meijer von Imperlian stood at the window after his subordinates had left, admiring the evening sky and the full moon. He imagines the face of his beloved woman, which resembles that of his youngest son.

His majesty murmured, “Agatha, I will protect our son well this time. I’ve gathered this power for that sake alone after all. I also can protect you this time. Wait for me.”
