Chapter 125: Edward III's Audience
As Lyon entered the imperial capital, everyone in the capital focused their attention on him.
But Leon didn't care about these, because in ten days at most, the army of the Orc Empire would be at the gates of the city.
Therefore, Lyon set up his headquarters in the imperial capital.
The armored division was divided into two and placed on the east and west sides outside the imperial capital respectively.
Forming a horn with the imperial capital.
And an infantry division was mobilized to enter the imperial capital.
The imperial capital was built into an iron barrel.
The trained 3rd Armored Division was sent to the Violet Principality.
Once the Orc Empire is defeated or falls into a fierce battle, they will immediately break into the northern part of the empire.
Cut off the Orc Empire's retreat route.
Just when everything was going according to plan, an unexpected news came.
Edward III wants to see Lyon!
Lyon was surprised to hear the news, and out of disgust at what Edward III had done, Lyon did not intend to go.
But Edward III said this was the last time he would see Lyon.
I won't bother Lyon again.
After asking Cadis and Chester, Lyon decided to enter the palace.
But to be on the safe side, Lyon brought Chester Cadis and Froststar with him.
Soon, night falls.
Lyon and his party arrived at the bedside of Edward III.
"You came……"
Edward III said weakly.
"Um……"
Leon responded expressionlessly.
The Edward III in front of him had a pale face and no longer had the vigor and vitality of the past.
“Leon, I know I have done a lot of wrong things, and I am sorry to Cadis and Chester.
I was influenced by the Cardinal for so many years, until Brian killed him, Elena left, and the empire collapsed.
I finally understood that I am not a good emperor, nor a good husband, and even less a good father... ahem..."
As Edward III spoke, he began to cough.
The maid beside her immediately brought over a glass of water.
"You are not sorry to me, nor to Chester. You are sorry to the soldiers who died tragically!"
Cadis said coldly.
"I know I know……"
Edward III's cloudy eyes finally brightened a little.
"Please block it..."
Edward III said this and pointed upwards.
Cadis and Chester looked at each other and then isolated themselves from each other.
“In fact, the empire is already dead in name only, or it should be said that the empire has been dead in name only a long time ago.
The culprit of all this is the Holy See, which has already hollowed out the empire.
The reason why my father, Alexander the Great, waged war at all costs was to free the empire from the control of the Church.
But I believed the Vatican and killed my father with my own hands..."
Edward III finally broke down.
The four people of Lyon showed no expression.
Edward III continued.
“Several principalities in the empire were secretly supported by the Holy See to fight against the empire. I wanted to check and balance the Holy See by weakening the principalities, but I found that the Holy See was becoming more and more powerful.
These few days I realized that the root of all this is me..."
Edward III smiled bitterly.
Leon lowered his head, Cadis and Chester had no expression on their faces, and Froststar looked around.
“Only a strong emperor can lead the empire and eradicate the Church. I no longer count on the eldest prince and his men.
So, Leon, as the emperor of the empire, I beg you to make the empire shine again!
I, Edward III, the 267th Emperor of the Holy Empire, officially pass the throne to Lyon!"
Edward III said with all his might, taking out the sword of Dranes, the Sword of Yulandel, which symbolized his status as emperor.
Then he looked at Lyon with hope.
Leon shook his head and took a few steps back.
"Perhaps the position of emperor is very tempting, but I don't want to be an emperor!"
After hearing Lyon's answer, Cadis and Edward III looked at Lyon in shock.
This is the emperor!
If someone refused to become emperor, the whole world would feel sorry for him.
Then, Leon turned around and left.
Edward III recovered from his shock, then looked at Cadis and handed the Sword of Yulandel to Cadis.
"Whether he is the emperor or not, the empire must end in his hands!"
Hearing this, Cadis' eyes widened.
What do you mean?
But then Edward III spoke.
"Someone! Ask Grand Duke Cadis and his men to leave the palace!"
The guard at the side made a gesture of invitation.
After Caddis and the others walked away, Edward III suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Black blood spilled on the ground.
"His Majesty!"
The maid beside her immediately went to call the pastor.
Edward III stopped the maid.
Then he looked at the statue of the Goddess of Light and murmured.
"Just wait, someone will reveal your true identity, whether you are the goddess of light or not..."
Edward III then lay down.
Countless images flashed before my eyes...
"Father!"
"Don't call me father! You should call me Emperor Father."
"Father? Aren't you my father?"
"This is different... Never mind, it's up to you..."
"Then can Dad play with me?"
A conversation between a black-haired little boy and a blond man sitting under a big tree.
……
Tears flowed from the corners of Edward III's eyes.
Just then, the guard announced that Johanna had arrived.
Then Edward III clenched the sword under the quilt.
"Let her in!"
Edward III said with all his might.
A graceful and elegant woman walked in.
"Your Majesty~"
A seductive voice sounded, and then Johanna sat next to Edward III.
But Edward III remained unmoved and spoke coldly.
"What are you here for?"
"Of course I'm here to visit His Majesty~ By the way, Bazaar and Will are waiting outside the palace~"
Johanna said and looked at Edward III.
Edward III looked at Johanna in disbelief.
"Your Majesty, please don't make our two children wait anxiously."
Johanna gave a weird smile.
"you……"
Edward III seemed to be almost maddened and could hardly breathe.
"Father!"
Baza and Will come in.
"What are you doing!"
The majestic voice of Edward III sounded.
Baza and Will shuddered.
"Father..."
"Your father has decided to pass the throne to you!"
Johanna spoke first.
Edward III and Bazaar both looked incredulous.
"Is this your idea?"
Edward III glanced at the two of them.
The two shook their heads.
"You guys get out!"
Johanna spoke up, and the two immediately ran out.
The next second, Edward III looked at Johanna.
The two looked at each other.
"You really want to do this?"
Johanna smiled strangely.
