Fiona did not rebut Lira. To be precise, she did not have an argument because that was something Emperor Euan would do. His temperament was the reason her family did not support him. Although Princess Haylee was said to take after her mother, the late Emperess, said to be the embodiment of goodwill, they were confident that if she awakened the will of the Soul Emperor, she would become an ideal ruler.
"Anyway, you were there when her Highness gave her orders," Lira ended. "She gave her consent to let me act upon my judgment when the emperor does something that will hinder her plans."
"Very well," Fiona replied. Though she still felt they had rushed in attacking the emperor while he was in the company of Deputy Marshal Mannick, she had little say on the matter.
Lira spared Fiona a side glance. After seeing the latter had no intention of pursuing the subject, she turned her attention back to the battlefield.
"Any news from our forerunners?"
