I continue reading and studying this Empire's History because there is a chance that some information was not included or mentioned in the book. While sitting on the garden pavilion, Lyle is sitting in front of me.
In the Seria Empire the one who holds power is not the Imperial family, it is none other than the Church. The Imperial Family will provide all the needs of the Church while the Church will enhance the Imperial Family by spreading some words to the commoners and nobles. That is why I understand on why Laura Iris, the Princess who have a very weak divinity is having a private time to the High Priest and her gaining a reputation as she is studying hard to be a Priestess.
In this world, Divinity Powers or whatever it is called exist. In the book it stated that Divinity is divided into two: Divinity and Dark Divinity. Whereas there are only some special people who got blessed by a pure and strong Divinity Powers and that are the direct Imperial Family and the High Priest. Those people who had been blessed with a divine magic* were given a title as a Paladin and there is only a two Paladin in throughout of the Empire's history.
*(Divine Magic is like having a divine power but knows how to wield a magic at the same time.)
There were some people who are born with dark divinity and the Church will take them and purify them however there were no succession on purifying a Dark Divinity into Pure divinity one that is why instead on killing them they make them study magic healing so that they become a Cleric*. The Cleric and Paladin will go to any war to help the soldiers.
*(Clerics were called a fighting Priest because of them going into war. Clerics can also be able to repel or control undead creatures.)
In the story it mentions that since Laura's mother the Queen Consort is a commoner her divinity become weak, while Madeline's mother the Empress, is a Archduke's daughter the reason why her divinity is powerful and strong, however later on the book it says that Madeline's divinity is weakening and making her ill, because she didn't visit the Church.
For a Divine user for them to keep them strong and powerful, they will need a time when they visit the Church and pray faithfully to The God.
Well, that is a disadvantage to me. I will take note of this one. It was not like I had a choice, even though I middle finger the God I do not want to die helplessly like the original Madeline. I have so many things to do and that is to have fun.
The start of the main event of the story is when the wedding of Laura and the Grand Duke. I need to prevent my neck from being sliced off in the guillotine.
When will that occur? Or shall I pay a visit to the Grand Duchy of Dewei? I need to think of something for him to not marry my sister.
Think, Adeline! Why did the marriage between the Princess and Grand Duke happen? I close my eyes to ransack my mind and recall all the things that happened to the story.
Two weeks before the wedding Madeline was executed because of attempted murder of Laura, she poisons the tea Laura's drinking and because of that Laura experienced a near death situation. Two days after Madeline's death the emperor is found in his bedchamber's hanging. The people believed that he killed himself out of guilt on killing her daughter, and so that is what Laura and her mother, The Queen Consort wanted.
After framing Madeline, they hired someone to kill the emperor. Everything is planned well, and it is never revealed in the book who is helping The Queen Consort and Laura. Yes, I am that someone is behind their actions because they will never have the guts and confidence to do all of this.
However, despite all the things that happened, the wedding proceeded, and Laura became the Emperor and a Grand Duchess, while the Queen had no right to become the Empress and did not even have the slightest interest in becoming one. That is the end.
So, what happened to Lyle? After his master's death, he never appeared or mention again into story. He also holds an account of the story. As he is very loyal to Madeline. He protects her even though she is captured and tries to hide her away. However, as Madeline's life is nearing to an end, she chooses to die. It never mentions on what emotion Lyle held when Madeline chooses to die and was killed.
Some readers believe that Lyle is secretly in love to Madeline and kill himself after her death, some were to believe that Lyle gather forces to have a revenge, but nothing was mentioned.
Now that I recall, it mentions that Laura proposed to the emperor her marriage to the Grand Duke as soon as she got her Coming-of-Age Ceremony and become a Crowned Princess, declaring that she is the only heir apparent to the throne.
I clasped when I remembered the important thing "Finally!" Lyle, who is just starting at me frown as he saw my relief expression.
"When is the Coming-of-Age of Laura?" I asked, "It will be in the fall" Fall, it is Summer, so it is only three months away. "Do you have any idea who will help us on bringing down the bastards?" He instantly understands who I am referring to.
His brows frowned and his finger held his chin. As I stared at him, I was captivated by his deep blue eyes, it is refreshing to see as it was, I am staring into the sky. His messy silver hair is too blinding to look at. I have never remembered asking how the author said that her favorite character is Lyle. He is too handsome and a perfect man she made.
Despite of his characteristics, many women still fall in love to the male protagonist, The Grand Duke and I am going to make sure that I will compare them when I meet the male lead.
"I think the most effective way is to approach the High Priest, the commoners because in noble house, there's no people I can think of" he spoke after a minute.
No, there must be someone at least in a powerful house that can intimidate them. I looked again at the record book I had where all the list of noble houses were here.
I found it! One of the strongest houses that even the emperor will not go against. The paternal family house of Madeline, The Luxemburg House.
They never appear in the novel; however, I think they will help their only granddaughter right? If not then, I might as well take care of the House.
"I think this is the time to go meet my grandfather, isn't it?" I asked
Lyle nodded "They will be very glad, Your Highness."
Now, shall I see my father to get his approval?
While walking on the way into the Main Palace, the nobles whose visiting and saw me greeted me halfheartedly. I just shrugged at them. The disgusted gaze that they will throw at me whenever they have a chance. Their murmurings that I can clearly hear. It never affected me.
I do not understand why or is it because I am now a different person now? But there is still something that the real owner of this body never erased, and that is the emptiness and loneliness that she had felt.
The first time I was awakened in this world, the first thing I have ever felt is the heaviness of my heart. The same feeling that I have when my sister was still alive.
I thought that my life is entangled into her if she is alive that is why I studied hard on how a person can die naturally by a hospital IV's and after asking around I have finally done it.
After I heard the sound of her life monitor machine and saw the flat lines, I felt a warm breeze, my mind become clear and even it is night I saw a very bright light ahead to me and that was the most refreshing and light feeling I have ever felt ever since I can remember.
I wonder... If I killed them, will I ever going to feel it again?
