March 30, 332 AD.

Or the Imperial Conference Hall?

There are still a group of people sitting around the round table from last time.

However, the number is smaller than last time.

"Then, this is the detailed report on the explosion of the white dove in the central fountain of the royal capital."

He was still the familiar speaker, looking at the manuscript in his hand without focus. After reading the things recorded above, he bowed to everyone and left.

There was silence. Everyone on the round table looked at me and I looked at you.

A very depressing feeling pervaded everyone.

The third person, this is already the third person.

This is already the third person who has been transferred to the correction department of the royal capital to succeed Yanmo Noine.

Of the two before, one disappeared and one committed suicide, and now another one has arrived and was killed by an explosion.

To say that there is nothing fishy in this, no one believes it.

"Um……"

Colt still looked the same, sitting in his seat with his head lowered and his eyes closed, meditating.

No one knew what he was thinking or whether he was in a good or bad mood.

But at this time, no one wants to get into trouble.

"snort."

After a while, Colt opened his eyes, stood up from his position and was about to leave.

This time, he didn't say anything, and there was no need to say anything.

Everyone knew that after these incidents, the emperor was very impatient with him and he was under great pressure.

This time, he will definitely be cautious and may even take action himself.

As long as Colt takes action personally, there is no chance of an accident happening.

No one present would deny this.

However, the premise is that he can have this opportunity.

Crunch…

There was a slow sound and the door opened.

A woman walked in.

Still the same woman who came in last time.

The emperor's maid, the queen's ambassador.

"Lord Colt, please stop."

She changed her gentle and mocking attitude last time and became extremely cold.

Those sharp eyes scanned everyone on the field.

Suddenly, everyone couldn't help but shudder.

It was like a sharp blade scraping their skin, bringing a biting chill.

"What do you mean?"

Colt looked at the woman and asked in a deep voice.

However, the woman just glanced at him lightly and did not respond.

Just when Colt was about to get angry, she spoke.

"Lord Noya, here we come."

The calm voice made Colt's pupils shrink even among the others.

Noya, this name, no one can ignore.

Even the emperor must give in three points.

It is only because of her that the conservative faction of the old aristocracy can survive to this day.

Noah is the biggest enemy of all reformists.

"Good morning, every body."

While everyone's heart was beating wildly,

A dull voice with a hint of laziness came from outside the door.

Noya wore a floor-length red dress without makeup, and her stunning face was enough to put every woman in the world to shame.

She walked slowly from the door with strong steps.

"I have met Your Majesty."

"I have met Your Majesty."

"I have met Your Majesty."

The moment everyone, including Colt, saw Noya, they knelt down on one knee without a trace of hesitation and lowered their heads, which were much arrogant than others.

Those who were sitting on the round table had to kick their chairs away and face Noya. They could only focus on the ground and count the countless dust.

"Everyone, there is no need to be polite."

Noya smiled lightly, and the woman who was standing aside quickly took a chair and placed it behind her.

"I came here today just because I heard some interesting news."

"I hope you guys can give me some answers."

Noah sat down on the chair gracefully and looked at Colt.

"It is said that the position of Corrector in the Royal Capital Department has been vacant for a long time."

"The several successors who were sent were unable to succeed due to various reasons."

"Sir Colt, can you tell me if this is the case?"

Colt lowered his head and said nothing.

"Lord Colt, Your Majesty is asking you something."

The woman raised her eyebrows and shouted.

"……yes."

"Everything you heard is true."

Colt then responded in a low voice.

"oh?"

"This is really a wonderful thing."

"Sir Colt, it is really rare for such a mistake to occur."

Noah crossed his legs and looked down at Colt.

"If that's the case, why not let people who are already in the Royal Capital Department directly serve?"

"In that case, there would be no possibility of such a risk."

Her voice was soft,

However, everyone present was suffocated.

Originally, they thought that Noya was just here to ridicule, but now it seems that the person who came here is obviously evil.

"Your Majesty, all the personnel in the Royal Capital Department were killed when Yanmo defected."

Colt replied.

He felt that Noya was humiliating him.

Unfortunately, he couldn't refute.

"Yeah?"

Hearing this, Noya smiled,

That smile was beautiful, but also cold.

She stretched out a white arm towards the woman.

The woman quickly placed a document she had prepared in her hand.

"This is really strange."

Noya flipped through the documents at random and threw one of the documents at Colt.

The document was as light as a feather, falling on Colt's head without any weight.

But at the same time, for Colt, it was like a big mountain weighing on his noble self-esteem.

His eyes when he lowered his head were bloodshot.

However, even so, he just endured it and tremblingly took the thin piece of paper from his head.

It's rare to see him like this, it's embarrassing,

However, no one at the round table laughed at him, no matter whether they had bad relations with Colt before.

All they felt about Colt's humiliation was pity.

"This is?"

Colt was stunned for a moment when he saw what was on the paper.

"Aren't there still people alive?"

"This person named Evie Gray, I think, is very suitable to be the leader of the Royal Capital Department."

"The fact that she was able to survive that tragic rebellion proves that she is good enough."

Noya said as if it didn't matter.

Now, everyone understood,

This is the purpose of her trip.

However, they still couldn't figure out the relationship between this person named Evie Gray and Noya.

A subordinate? However, correctors have been carefully screened, and there should be no conservatives.

So, just for the sake of the greater good? That would be even more ridiculous.

This woman, Noya, has never been someone who thinks about the overall situation.

For her own purposes, she can do anything crazy, even if it divides the entire empire.

"She is just a survivor and cannot take on the responsibility."

No matter what others thought, Colt knew very well that he could not agree to this matter.

It didn't matter whether Evie Gray was an old-school person. He only knew that once he agreed to Noya's request, regardless of Evie's position, he would definitely lose control of the Royal Capital Department.

Because even if Evie Gray is a reformist, she is definitely not the core.

This kind of person is very likely to betray. If Noya comes forward this time, even if Evie is not hers, there is a high probability that she will be pulled to that side.

Therefore, I cannot agree.

"So, do you want to send someone from out of town again?"

"Then, let them lose their lives again?"

"Sir Colt, the lives of the people of the empire are not pawns in your power field. You are not qualified to do this."

Noya's voice became obviously colder.

"Even so, you have no right to force me without His Majesty the Emperor's order!"

Colt gritted his teeth and looked up at Noya.

Even if his positions were different, he had to admire Noya's beauty.

It was as if God gave her all his love and affection to create a face that should not exist in this world.

"……Ah."

At this time, Colt found Noah smiling.

She stood up, walked to Colt, and looked down at him condescendingly.

"Who do you think you are talking to?"

"presumptuous."

This sentence was very calm, without scolding,

However, all the blood in Colt's body seemed to have solidified at this moment.

Not because of strength, but because of the pressure of pure aura.

This is not a class gap, it is a class gap.

In front of Noah, Colt was even worse than a reptile.

"..."

Colt was so humiliated that he gritted his teeth and did not respond.

Not only because of instinctive fear, but also because Noya is the strongest person in the entire empire besides the emperor.

"...It's really boring."

Noah looked at Colt's appearance and shook his head.

"Give him the stuff."

After leaving such a sentence, Noya turned and left.

thing?

Colt was still wondering;

The woman took out a scroll from her arms and threw it to Colt.

"Lord Colt, this is your Majesty's order."

"Just take your time and see for yourself."

After walking, she also left.

After the two of them left one after another, the solemn and oppressive atmosphere suddenly cleared.

Everyone seemed to agree that nothing happened in the embarrassment just now, and looked at the scroll in Colt's hand.

[Order, Evie Gray is the head of the Corrector Kingdom. 】

Colt opened the scroll, and there was just this sentence written on it.

It was very dull, but his face turned pale instantly.

This big man felt even more painful than the humiliation he had just received.

Everyone at the round table was silent and looked at Colt silently.

They all understand what this means.

The emperor has lost patience with him.
