A few more days passed since Alexandra I had given a message for the Emperor to Alexandra, and there was still nothing.
Not a single sign of life from anyone. I had been sure that someone from the Emperor's side would have contacted me by now, which meant one of two things.
Either Alexandra hadn't told the Emperor anything, or she had lied to him.
Both of those options were something that I had anticipated since Alexandra was more of a snake than anything else. I wasn't surprised by any of the actions that she would take.
However, I couldn't leave and go see the Emperor in person at the moment. My training and Zero took priority over all of this without a doubt.
I could always clear up the situation with the Emperor once I returned to the Empire. After all, even if I had become some kind of enemy, I didn't believe they would send someone capable of dealing with me to kill me.
