Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects! Chapter 143.1: The Passion of the Elven Wife (1)

Chapter 143.1: The Passion of the Elven Wife (1)

In the regent’s residence.

At dinner time, Hamilton sat with his daughters and wife. He looked at the sumptuous banquet at the table listlessly.

The regent was a busy person.

He had to deal with a lot of government affairs all day long and spent very little time at home.

Every day, the only time he could meet his wife and daughters was during dinner time.

However, today, the regent had already stayed at home for the entire day.

He knew that he was already in extreme danger. He too did not want to stay at home and wait for death; he wanted to try his best to save himself.

However…

He was already at the end of his rope.

The killer Lynn could no longer be contacted. The interest groups surrounding him collapsed miraculously in three days.

Looking around, there were only pairs of disgusted and unfamiliar eyes left in the entire Leta palace.

Everyone was watching coldly from the sidelines.

What else could he do?

At that moment, the regent noticed his second daughter who wanted to say something but hesitated.

Today, his daughters had been playing outside for the entire afternoon and had just returned.

The younger sister looked at the regent and was silent for a long time. She wanted to say something but did not dare to.

The regent asked, “Gwendolyn, what’s wrong?”

“Father, I have a question.”

His second daughter mustered her courage and asked him curiously, “What will happen to us after the Moonlight Queen is crowned?”

“…!”

That stupid question caused the veins of the regent to bulge!

What would happen after the Moonlight Queen was crowned?

He did not understand how he could have raised such a stupid descendant.

As long as they shifted their attention away from eating, drinking and having fun, they should know what their father did to the previous regent after he ascended the throne to consolidate his power and rule.

He killed their entire family.

It was not only the regent’s family, but also the Fremont family that was related to him by marriage.

The two families were removed from the genealogy of the palace. If not for Alice’s return, these two families would have become history.

He had to pay for his sins sooner or later.

The regent knew better than anyone that the day of reckoning was about to come.

When they saw their father remain silent with a livid expression…

The two daughters finally realized the severity of the matter…

It seemed like… everything their darling said might be true!

They became nervous.

“Father, will something… happen to us? If Alice becomes the Moonlight Queen, will we encounter danger in the future?”

The regent said coldly, “Protect yourselves. This is not something you guys can control.”

Although the regent did not give a clear answer, he had already given an answer.

That’s right!

As long as the Moonlight Queen is crowned… you guys, me, everyone! We’re all doomed!

The moment he said that, the two elven sisters broke down…

In the past, the elven sisters had no interest in politics and had the best living environment. In this bustling capital, they lived a life of luxury and enjoyed the benefits of being the daughters of the regent without any worries.

But today…

A few unintentional words from a man who made the sisters fall in love made them suddenly realize the urgency of their situation…

Yes, they suddenly understood that the coronation of the Moonlight Queen, Alice, did not just mean that their father’s promise that the sisters could be crowned as queens had failed.

It would be revenge, murder and extermination of the entire family clan! Their power would plummet!

What happened after the previous ruler of Leta stepped down?

His family was slaughtered, his assets were divided and he was abandoned by everyone. Their young daughter with high purity noble blood in her was abandoned among the commoners and struggled to survive at the desolate borders!

That would be their outcome!

However, at the same time…

Out of helplessness, the lover they admired gave them a way to turn the situation around after they pleaded with him bitterly!

That… was the only way! Re𝒂𝒂d the latest stories 𝒐n nov𝒆lbin(.)com

The elder sister said anxiously, “Father, why don’t we… wake Brother Sebastian up?! He was the hero who almost killed the Empress of Haines! He will definitely be able to defeat Alice!”

The regent: “Sebastian…”

At the mention of that name, the regent’s expression turned even more complicated.

How could the regent not have thought of letting his son return to Leta to fight against Alice on his behalf?

However, he had been hesitating.

Sebastian was qualified to be crowned the Moonlight King. However, could the regent really bear the price and consequences of releasing him?

Regarding whether this decision was right or not, the regent had yet to come to a conclusion.

But today…

The terrified gazes of his daughters touched the regent’s heart deeply.

Perhaps, they were right…

As long as he could awaken Sebastian and let him join the coronation election, there would be a chance for everything to turn around!

Not only did the regent not have to worry about being punished, in fact, there was even a chance of turning defeat into victory! He could defeat Alice and continue his family’s rule over Leta!

The strong temptation caused the balance in the regent’s heart to finally tilt towards the release of Sebastian.

However, just as the regent was excited and was about to say something…

Suddenly, an enraged berating sounded.

“Don’t say stupid things! Are you all crazy? You actually want to awaken that blasphemous lunatic?!”

The person who spoke was the wife of the regent, Daphne Twain.

His wife, who was usually silent, was filled with anger at this moment.

“It’s true that Sebastian cursed the Empress of Haines, but how much did his actions cost the country? Darling, have you forgotten how that fella obtained the power of a demigod?”

His wife gritted her teeth and said, “He used our goddess as fuel to burn in the furnace!”

“…”

The slight smile that was gradually appearing on the regent’s face dimmed rapidly.

His wife was right…

The regent began to hesitate again.

The second wife of the regent, Daphne Twain.

She would never support someone awakening Sebastian.

She had too many arguments to refute this ridiculous idea. One of the most important reasons was that her father was the bishop of the Mithril Sanctum!

At the Mother Saint’s Day ball yesterday, Bishop Alfred Twain had already sworn full fealty to the Moonlight Queen, Alice.

He was a bishop and an important figure in the Leta Empire.

Now that the bishop had already submitted to Her Majesty Alice… In that case, her father would definitely not let his daughter die in the process of them settling scores with the regent.

If the regent merely stepped down, it would be easier to settle everything.

She should be able to survive with the help of her father.

However, if the regent awakened Sebastian and fought with the Moonlight Queen for power to the end, the Moonlight Queen’s hostility towards the regent would soar!

Thereafter, Daphne Twain looked at her two daughters.

“Who did the two of you hear those stupid words from? Why would you suddenly have such thoughts?!”

“We…”

“Don’t give your father any more bad ideas! Do you guys think that he’s not frustrated enough right now?!”

The sisters had never seen their mother so angry before and lowered their heads one after another, not daring to speak.

Just like that, the dinner today ended on bad terms as well.

…

The next day.

Daphne paced anxiously at home.

There was no response, still no response!

Yesterday, she sent a letter to her father, explaining her current difficulties and hoping to obtain his help.

However, after an entire day, there was no response from her father!

When her father was working under the regent, he doted on his daughter in every way.

However, the moment he turned to the Moonlight Queen, it was as though he had vanished into thin air and cut off all contact with Daphne.

It was an even more thorough severing of ties than those fake best friends of hers!

Ha… She was also stupid. After so many years, shouldn’t she have seen through her cowardly father’s nature long ago?

So, what should she do now?

What to do…

Just as Daphne was troubled, her two daughters suddenly knocked on her door.
