For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

Chapter 110

After serving tea and snacks, the servants exited the room leaving Lennox and Beatrice alone. Lennox said before taking a pastry and stuffing it in his mouth.

" How did you get here? "

" How do you say? I jumped on the wall, what else? "

Lennox rolled his eyes at her. If sneaking into the imperial palace was this easy why not just keep the gates open for the public?

Forget about the thousands of knights who are patrolling 24/7 a day, there are various types of magical traps and security systems placed around the entire palace. Above them all, Lennox's formation could instantly detect any unauthorized intrusion and deal with it.

Unless someone had higher magic techniques than Lennox, which is impossible, then it can only be a dead person. Assuming that the guy who sneaked into the palace, when Lennox was asleep for three days, was a puppet or something, then how did Beatrice, a living person, get inside unnoticed?

" Do I look that gullible to you, Beatrice? "

" You would rather die than call me aunt, wouldn't you? "

Seeing Lennox's stone face, Beatrice sighed. Her nephew is not cute at all, but definitely capable. She took a green-beaded bracelet from her storage ring and handed it to him.

" A subordinate of mine bought it from a wanderer magician, they said it can sneak you into a supreme-level formation unscathed "

Lennox's face was full of black lines the moment he received the item. Suppressing the urge to slap the person in front of him, he said with restraint.

" What did the Empress say regarding this bracelet? "

" hm? Nothing I didn't show it to her. She is busy these days with arranging for her leave, no need to bother her " 

Lennox felt a headache raising. So she not only bought a suspicious item from a suspicious person but also used it blindly without consulting a professional. 

' calm down shianl, her brain is just filled with weapons and wars like a manic, there is no space for reason in it. It's not like you didn't know that...'

After a long sigh, Lennox looked at Beatrice meaningfully and said:" do you know what makes a supreme-level formation unbreakable? " 

Supreme formations are the most flawless formations to be created, of course, they are difficult to make and requires two opposite types of energy. It works as a soul detector and locker, as long as something that has a soul goes through, it will instantly be traped. Unlike the lower levels formations that depend on heat and life force which are easy to hide with magic devices. 

" How would I know? I have always skipped those magic theory classes when I was younger "

A vein popped on Lennox's forehead, he had enough of this failure of an adult. With considerable force, the green bracelet in his hand shattered vigorously. It is unheard of of a device or item that can conceal one's soil's existence, this item is no exception, rather than concealing, it is to absorb souls.

No matter how much he wanted to slap the shit out of this woman, she was still his mother's sibling, he has to give face to his mother.

" So what is it you want to talk about? "

Beatrice's face suddenly turned grim. She put her tea cup on the small table and looked at Lennox with determined eyes.

" I want you to inherit Mojin's throne "

" That is not possible, we already had our fill from this conversation ", Lennox directly refused.

" I am saying, I want you take over Mojin, even if it meant to merge the two nations "

Lennox frowned. During one of the discussions of who's going to make him their crown prince, someone suggested that they merge the two nations when Lennox takes over. Of course, that person was almost beaten to death, there were many who objected and Beatrice was the most who refuted the idea.

Sitia is an Empire while Mojin is a Kingdom. A nation could claim itself as an Empire if it has excelled in every aspect, treasures, army, magic, science, etc. If such a great country were to merge with her Kingdom, Mojin will completely be overshadowed. Not to forget how it will effect the power balance in the continent and the lose of long lived culture.

' I thought this topic ended with Leonhard's birth, then why would she...'

Lennox's face turned serious as he sorted out all the possibilities, but he didn't duel in his imagination long and directly asked.

" Why so sudden? Mojin has Leonhard now, so things should work just fine "

By the mention of Leonard, Beatrice's pupils shook slightly, although it was for a split second, Lennox still noticed the change in her expression.

" Is there something wrong with my younger brother? ", Lennox asked carefully.

It couldn't be a life-threatening matter, if so, Lennox would have already heard of it.

" Nothing, our prince is healthy and cheerful. I just thought it would be such a promising future to have you lead Mojin forward "

Beatrice might be annoying, but she is no idiot. She didn't even bother to come up with a believable excuse and half-assed what ever she came up with. Either she was drunk with mint tea or she knew Lennox would find out about it sooner or later.

Seeing that the useful conversation ends here, put down his tea cup then stood, preparing to leave.

" There is no one in the palace to entertain you. I have to take care of the old man's work as well as my personal affairs, so consort Cha and the other concubines will accompany you "

" How about you send that little girl- "

"No"

With the firm rejection, Lennox walked out of the room. Since he was all sober and awake, he might as well attend the public audience personally instead of having someone record it for him.

As he reached his room, Lennox turned to the old butler following him and ordered.

" Send someone to inform the minster of public affairs that I will attend today's morning audience "
