*SOME HOURS BEFORE GILMESH REGAINED CONSCIOUSNESS*
- DOMITIAN EMPIRE THRONE HALL -
The Throne Hall is a grand chamber adorned with intricate tapestries and ornate pillars, exuding an air of regality. The centerpiece is a colossal banquet table, polished to a high sheen, stretching across the hall's length to accommodate noble gatherings and meetings. Lavish chandeliers illuminate the space, casting a warm, golden glow.
At the far end of the hall, a majestic elevated platform stands, commanding attention. Two thrones, one for the Emperor and another for the Empress, are positioned atop the platform. The thrones boast rich upholstery, embroidered with symbols of their reign, while the elevated position emphasizes their authority. Behind the thrones, a towering backdrop features the royal insignia, reinforcing the majesty of the ruling couple.
Currently sitting on the Grand Thrones were the Emperor and Empress of the Domitian Empire, Negan Domitian and Eldia Domitian. Siting in the chairs around the Colossal banquet table were 8 People from the Noble Families that make up the heads of the Empire apart from the Imperial Family.
"But Emperor, that is Outrageous!, You are trying to go against our Traditions"one of the Noble Elders said with a loud voice as he Looked at Emperor Negan.
"I agree with Head Axolmat from the Zart Family, the Boy might be useless and worth trash but we cannot go against our Traditions. This Traditions has been practiced for years from the time of our Ancestors that Each Prince that is Born into the Empire must go Through the Crowned Prince Test at the Age of 6 and any of the Princes that Pass this test is Qualified for the Sit of The Next Emperor no matter how many Princes qualified by passing the Test, The Family Heads of Each Family, the Kingdoms under the Empire and the Emperor and Empress must vote any of the Qualified candidate that Passed the Crowned Prince Test as the Crowned Prince that'd ascend the Throne next as the New Emperor. And only the one with the Most Votes takes the Position of Crowned Prince..."Another man said as he paused a little"...With all that said, even you that went through the Test, Passed and Earned Votes to become the Emperor must have a valid reason to want to go against the Tradition, Now tell us, What is the Reason, Emperor Negan?"He asked.
"Family Head Gaz Ridge from the Ridge Family, thank you for reminding us of the traditions and going straight to the Question that needed to be asked. I Emperor Negan Domitian decided to cancel the Crowned Prince Test of Second Prince Gilmesh Domitian as I have deemed him Incapable of passing the Test as he is too weak to Handle A calf much less one of the Wild Beast in the Obstacle Course segment of the Test."Emperor Negan said with a straight Face.
"My Emperor, It is true that the Second Prince is Feeble, but why do you have to cancel the Crowned Prince Test for him. Could it be you are trying to keep Face and you are ashamed of the fact that you Produced such a weak proge--"A Young Man around the same age as Emperor Negan stood up and spoke, he was the Family Head of the Vailrose Family, he was suddenly interrupted by the Prudent voice of a Woman sitting beside the Emperor.
"Insolence,Elton, How dare you talk to the Emperor in such manner, Are you trying to call the Emperor a Disgrace"Empress Eldia Bellowed.
"Empress Eldia, I made no such statements, forgive me if I have overstepped my bounds"The Young man called Elton bowed his head and sat back in his seat.
"Before any of you say anything else, The Emperor has Made his decision and his Decision is Final as there is no room for suggestions or questioning, Do you understand?"The Empress said.
"Yes we Understand Your Highness"All Eight Family Heads stood up and Bowed with unsightly expressions. After bowing, they left the Throne Hall for their Respective Families.
"Haha, My Empress is as Fierce as Ever"Negan spoke with a smile.
"Humph, he tried to sully your name and I would never allow that"Eldia Harrumphed.
"Hehe, I should reward you, Come let's go to our chamber"
"AHH"
Negan said as he stood up from his Throne and lifted the Empress from hers in a Princess Carry style which resulted in the Empress's yelp.

*Back in the Physicians Office, Current time*
"News as Spread that your Crowned Prince Test has been cancelled and you can't be acknowledged as a candidate for the Election"The Physician said.
Gilmesh stood in front of the Door, his eyes wide open in shock and sadness.
