"You want to marry a new princess? It seems that this old boy Rudolf is in love, haha!" Duke John Baseman threw the document on the table after reading it and then looked out the window, saying to himself, "Okay, this girl looks quite charming. It's best to make that old boy forget everything. This is even better for me!" But his tone seemed to have no respect for the emperor at all. What the Duke casually threw on the table was a piece of information with Angel Eagle's photo printed on it.
Although the emperor had not yet returned to the imperial capital, the news that the emperor was about to get married spread throughout the streets of New Rome overnight. Especially the ladies were eager to find out what the vixen who fascinated the emperor looked like and lamented why they were not so lucky to be favored by the emperor. Not to mention being a concubine; even being a lover would be good. The nobles with high positions were secretly planning to see if they could gain any benefit for themselves from the emperor's wedding. If possible, it was best to take this opportunity to embarrass their political opponents.
Rudolph and Angel had been preparing for almost a month after arriving in the imperial capital. A grand wedding was held in the palace of New Rome. The emperor broadcast the wedding live to the entire empire, and even the people of the Free Alliance could watch it. When the mysterious new princess appeared on the live broadcast of the interstellar network, overnight, countless men in the galaxy regarded this beautiful but cold-looking woman as the lover of their dreams, and many men secretly scolded the emperor as an old man pursuing a younger woman and wasting such a good girl. The wedding was a success. Contrary to what most people had guessed, the newly married emperor did not linger over the death of his new imperial concubine. He had gone to the Imperial Parliament Building on time every day for morning court meetings, and the new imperial concubine had not appeared in public again. This made the public even more mysterious about her, and there was even a rumor in the market that the new imperial concubine was sexually frigid, so she quickly fell out of favor.
Sylvan seemed to be angry with his sister. He didn't even attend the wedding. And since the last time he went to New Athens City, after coming back, every time he went to Mu 3 City, he no longer went to the airport to see the spaceships as before. People who knew him said he became silent.
All this was observed by the old butler Bob, but Bob couldn't do anything. He knew that this problem could only be solved by the person involved himself.
"Master, Master Prov is here," Bob shouted to the bedroom upstairs.
"Uncle Bob, don't call me Master Prov, just call me Prov." Prov's voice also came from downstairs. As he grew older, Borov no longer stuttered when he spoke, and he became stronger and stronger. Please note, it is strong, not fat.
Sylvan came down from upstairs and led Borov to his study.
"Sylvan, I'm here to say goodbye to you. I told you that my dad wants me to attend a military school. I have passed the school's review, and my dad accompanied me to the admissions office in the city to register two days ago. I will leave to report to school the day after tomorrow," Borov said after sitting down and looking at Sylvan.
"Oh, I got it," Sylvan replied listlessly.
"Silven, you can't give up on yourself like this!" Borov stood up and grabbed Sylvan's shoulders. "Your sister just got married. It's not that you will never see each other again. As long as you are willing, you can definitely go see your sister."
"No! My sister doesn't like that middle-aged man at all. She married him because of me! You don't understand!" Sylvan suddenly shouted at Borov, "It's all useless for me! I can't protect my sister!"
"Pah!" Borov raised his hand and hit Sylvan in the face. "That's enough! How can you protect your sister like this? I don't know what happened at home, but I know that if, as you said, your sister had no choice but to marry because of you, then your current behavior will only make your sister more sad!" Prov stared at Sylvan, who looked at him in surprise, and continued to speak harshly: "If you want to save your sister, you must be strong. Only when you have the ability to protect your sister can you achieve your goal! Look at what you are doing now; you look like a coward!"
"Am I a coward?" Suddenly, Sylvan seemed to be awakened by a bolt from the blue. "No! I'm not a coward! I want to become strong; I want to become stronger! I will definitely save my sister!" Sylvan shouted at Borov. After shouting, he hugged Borov and started crying.
"Good brother, cry! I will always be on your side no matter what!" Borov patted Sylvan on the shoulder.
"This is the last time I cry!" Sylvan told himself silently in his heart.
That night, Sylvan ran into the open area alone. He raised his head and shouted at the starry sky: "Sister, wait! I will definitely save you from that man!"
Angel lived in the palace. Rudolph was indeed very kind to her and cherished her very much. As long as she wanted something, she would get it. However, Angel basically didn't ask for anything. She didn't care about beautiful clothes or jewelry. She rarely smiled. The waiters and maids in the palace even speculated whether the new mistress would never laugh.
However, today, Angel suddenly smiled. The ladies in the palace were shocked when they saw the princess smiling. "It turns out that the princess is so beautiful when she smiles! No wonder His Majesty the Emperor is so infatuated with her. If I were a man, seeing her with such a smiling face, I would willingly die." The ladies thought silently in their hearts.
The reason why Angel smiled today was because her only brother, her whole life, Sylvan Eagle, finally contacted her. She knew that her brother finally understood her.
"Brother!" Through the interstellar network video, Sylvan's face appeared in front of Angel.
"Sister, are you okay?" Sylvan gave his sister a smile on the other end of the network.
"I'm fine, little brother. My sister misses you very much. And Uncle Bob, how are you all too?"
"We're all fine. Uncle Bob is still the same. It's almost the harvest season. He's always been busy these two days, mumbling about hiring two more workers. By the way, Uncle Bob also asked me to ask my sister how she is for him!"
"Haha! Thank you, Uncle Bob. Brother, your sister is not around, so you must listen to Uncle Bob."
"I know." Sylvan paused for a moment and suddenly said to his sister with a serious expression, "Sister, I have thought about it carefully. I want to leave Mu 3 Star to study outside."
"You want to study outside?" Angel was startled by her younger brother's seriousness. "This is a good thing! Just come to
the Imperial Capital to study, and I'll make arrangements right away." Angel then turned around and told the lady next to her, "Go check and see what's a suitable school for him in the Imperial Capital."
"Sister, there's no need to check; I've already decided which school to go to!" Sylvan stopped his sister.
"Oh? Which school is it?" Angel gestured to the lady not to go yet. "Tell me quickly. If it's not good enough, I'll help you find another one."
"It's the Imperial Military Academy. I've seen their admissions profile. I'm 12 years old this year, just over the school age!"
"Imperial Military Academy? You want to join the army!" Angel suddenly exclaimed.
"Sister, you don't have to be so loud. Yes! I want to be a soldier!" Sylvan replied very firmly. "But sister, can you help me enroll? I missed the school's registration time!"
"Have you decided?" Angel's mood had stabilized, and she asked seriously.
"Yes, sister, can you help me? I know that you may have to ask that person. If you are in trouble, I'll stay in Mu 3 for another year and go back next year." Sylvan seemed to feel that his request might have been a bit too much, and his tone became a little hesitant.
"No! It's not troublesome at all!" Angel said firmly. "Is that school called the Imperial Military Academy?"
"Yes, thank you, sister! I'll die first." Sylvan said goodbye to his sister.
"Goodbye, brother!"
In the evening, when Rudolf returned to the palace to have dinner with Angel, he was surprised to find that Angel actually smiled at him. This was the first time since New Athens. Even on the wedding day, Angel had a cold expression on her face. "My dear, what makes you so happy today? Can you share it with me?"
"Your Majesty, I received a call from my brother today." Although the call was made during the day, Angel was still very happy now.
"Oh, is it Sylvan? This little guy is really stubborn. He's finally willing to contact you! He didn't even come to his sister's wedding. He deserves a beating!" Rudolf said deliberately.
"No! Your Majesty, Sylvan is just a child. He didn't mean it. Please don't punish him." Angel believed it and immediately ran to the emperor with a nervous look on her face and knelt down.
"Why are you here again?!" Rudolf didn't expect Angel to take him seriously, so he quickly helped her up. "Why do you have to do this, my dear concubine? I was just joking! Tell me, what did that little guy talk to you about today?" He changed the subject while sending her back to the chair.
"Just chatting about family matters." Angel felt relieved when she saw that the emperor didn't really blame his brother for not coming to the wedding. "However, he said he wanted to go to a military school."
"Go to a military school? Okay! This guy is still here. What a manly man. Which military school is he going to?" Rudolf was obviously happy with the news.
"My brother said it was the Imperial Military Academy."
"Oh? This seems to be an ordinary military academy. Most of the students in it are civilians. Occasionally there are one or two nobles, and they are all small nobles who can't get on the stage." The emperor didn't seem to like this school very much. "How about we help him change to a better place, such as the Royal Military Academy?"
"Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness. But I know my brother's temper. He is finally willing to talk to me. If he changes again casually, his wishes, I guess he will really ignore me in the future." When Angel heard that the emperor wanted to help her younger brother get into a different school, she quickly stopped him.
"Okay! It's up to you!" Seeing Angel's anxious look, Rudolf felt distressed again. The emperor wanted to feel sorry for the imperial concubine, but the imperial concubine felt sorry for her younger brother. If one day the imperial concubine could think of herself as much as she loved her younger brother, it would be perfect. "I will ask the people below to handle the little one's enrollment tomorrow."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Angel smiled sincerely when she heard that the emperor was willing to help.
Looking at his wife's smiling face, Rudolf felt that everything was worth it.
"The princess's younger brother wants to study at the Imperial Military Academy?" John Baseman was stunned when he heard the news reported by his subordinates. "He did not choose to go to the Royal Military Academy, which specializes in training noble officers, but to go to a civilian academy. Haha, what an interesting little guy." Afterwards, the Minister of Military Affairs did not take this matter seriously.
In August 8748 of the Galactic Calendar, Sylvan Iger received the admission notice from the Imperial Military Academy sent directly to him by the military ministry. In September of the same year, Sylvan entered the gate of the military academy and started a new chapter in his life.
