Chapter 17: The Strange Queen

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

The royal wedding was very complicated, and it usually took a whole afternoon.

First, there was a feast. After everyone was full, they watched the ceremony in the Prince’s residence.

“The king is here, the queen is here!”

The crowd was in an uproar, and then they parted ways.

The King of the Simon Empire led the Queen to the Prince’s residence. King Simon was dressed in luxurious attire. He was tall and handsome, and he looked very dignified.

King Simon’s eyes were especially sharp. They were like hawk eyes, and they shone with light, revealing his extraordinary wisdom and deep shrewdness.

The n.o.bles present felt a sense of tension and oppression under the unintentional gaze of King Simon, and their bodies could not help but tremble.

“Greetings, Your Majesty!”

Everyone hurriedly bowed respectfully.

This was the first time Lugh had seen the king, and he was also very curious.

In his eyes, King Simon was a typical medieval king. He was iron-blooded, dignified, and cold-blooded. With a single command, he could decide whether a person would live or die.

A golden mist hovered above King Simon’s head.

Gold was the symbol of the royal family.

However, the golden mist above King Simon’s head was not pure gold. There was also some black mixed in with the Golden Mist.

This surprised Lugh.

However, when he saw the mist above the queen’s head, he felt even more incredulous.

The queen’s head was actually covered in black mist.

Black represented death, decay, and so on. When a person’s head was covered in black mist, there would usually be a death crisis, but the queen was fine standing there.

As a queen, how could something that could endanger one’s life happen?

Not to mention being in a strict palace.

The queen was loved by the people in the Simon Empire, and was respected by the commoners and n.o.bles as the “Virtuous queen of a generation”!

When King Simon was slacking off in his affairs, she took the place of the king to handle many state affairs and carried out many duties that were beneficial to the commoners. Therefore, no one in the Simon Empire should want to harm the queen.

The queen did not look like she wanted to be seriously ill either. It seemed that the black gas in the king’s golden luck could have been caused by the queen’s influence.

This was the first time Lugh had seen a person shrouded in a black gas that represented death after obtaining the fate rune. Hence, he took a few more glances at the queen.

The queen was very dignified, very luxurious, and very charming. Time had not left many traces on her beautiful face. On the contrary, she exuded a mature charm.

But Lugh always felt that the queen was somewhat strange.

Some people looked like good people.

But, was she really a good person?

Not necessarily. Behind the scenes, she might be a bad person who had done bad things.

Therefore, Lugh thought that the queen was definitely not as simple as she appeared to be.

Although she had done her best to serve the commoners and contribute to the country, the Simon Empire had not become stronger because of this. On the contrary, it had become weaker and weaker.

The lives of the commoners had not improved either. The streets of the imperial city were filled with many commoners who were in rags and were hungry.

The queen was really like the legendary sage queen. That proved that she seemed to be doing this for the empire, for the people, but in reality, she was emptying this country.

Thinking of this, Lugh looked towards the direction of the Imperial Palace. It was also shrouded in a ball of black gas.

The Imperial Palace was the symbol of the empire. This ball of black gas meant that the situation of the Simon Empire was very bad. Their national strength was weakening day by day, and it was very likely that they would face the danger of losing their country.

I didn’t expect the decline of the Simon Empire to be because of a woman. Lugh smiled coldly.

The queen was indeed not simple. The huge Simon Empire had actually been ruined by her.

Besides the king and queen, Lugh also saw a familiar figure, Her Royal Highness, Princess Vivian.

She followed behind the king and queen, wearing a beautiful long dress. Although she was not as beautiful as Camia, she was not much inferior.

She walked over gracefully.

“Hmm?”

Vivian stopped when she pa.s.sed Lugh. She looked at him with her sapphire blue eyes.

Vivian felt a familiar feeling from the man in front of her. But she had never seen this man before.

Lugh’s heart raced. Did Vivian recognize him?

But he quickly calmed down. He had transformed into Celt with the illusion rune. Even if Vivian sensed something was wrong, she did not know his real ident.i.ty. There was no need to worry.

“Sir, have we met before?” Vivian asked.

“Beautiful princess, this is the first time we have met,” Lugh replied calmly with a smile.

But it was just a smile on Celt’s face. He was not as handsome as Lugh at all.

So Vivian just nodded and left.

As she left, she muttered, “Strange.”

“The ceremony is complete!”

With the blessing of King Simon, Berg and Camia completed their wedding.

The sky darkened, and the lights of the Prince’s residence lit up. Everyone was in a lively mood, and they began to drink, dance, sing, and communicate.

“Celt, come, drink this.”

A n.o.ble prince was drunk, he raised a wine gla.s.s. “Let me tell you, I ran into a commoner girl on the street yesterday. She was very beautiful, but the key was that she had a very good figure. Her skin was as white as milk, her waist was as soft as willow branches, and her body smelled good. I didn’t expect that there would be such a woman among the commoners.”

The moment they heard the word ‘woman’, the other n.o.bles immediately perked up. They surrounded him one by one and revealed a wretched smile.
