Chapter 126: CHAPTER 126
A man who is 27 years old is looking at the rows of paintings of the previous Queenby Emperor, and he is still young to occupy the Emperor's throne.
He is a descendant of the 14th Queenby Empire, Edward Lyod Charlotte Queenby.
His eyes fell on a painting depicting the most exalted female figure in the Empire. The painting of the woman is the only portrait of a woman who occupied the throne and was the founder of the former Queenby Empire.
Viewed from any angle, Edward could see the glory that radiated from the face, even though it was only a painting. The indescribable beauty is truly soul-stirring. From the history of the Queenby Empire, Empress Gabby was the most generous and noble Empress, so her people highly adored her.
However, during the incident of the Dwarf Race's attack on the Queenby Empire, Empress Gabby disappeared along with several of the Empire's higher-ups. That's what Xora and Tiffany wrote in the history books of the Empire. No one else knew about what happened at that time except Tiffany and Xora.
Edward sighed. "Bad start to the meeting." He remembered the first time he met her in the throne room. He didn't think that the woman looked younger than him, but she was the older sister of his ancestors.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Karina, as his Empress approached him, the rumours circulating in the palace were enough to make a lot of debate.
Edward looked back, "Our meeting with the founder of this Empire was so bad, I even treated him as if he were a criminal." Edward turned back to look at the painting of the woman's face.
"This is impossible, right?" Karina also looked at the painting plastered on the back wall of the throne.
"How is that impossible? It's not just you or me. Many have seen women easily stop the palace soldiers with the Element of Light. Plus, she didn't do anything to us." Edward said.
"But what if she…."
"The Grand Councilor said that she did not come back to take back the throne." interrupted Edward cutting off Karina.
Karina was silent for a moment, "Although this rumor is unknown to the people, it has been heard by Arch Duke Belva. I don't think he'll keep quiet considering he's so fanatical about Grand Empress Gabby."
"No need to worry, Grand Counselor said that Grand Empress Gabby didn't side with people too much and wanted to stage a coup d'etat." Edward replied.
Arch Duke Belva is the uncle of the Queenby Empire, who is very passionate about Empress Gabby's history. He greatly exalts it. Hearing the rumours that the Great Empress had returned, Arch Duke Belva would take steps to distort Edward.
Even though there was no movement from Arch Duke Belva, Edward kept an eye on him. Edward knew Arch Duke Belva didn't want the Emperor's Throne, and Arch Duke Belva was known to dislike Edward for a long time.
"Why?" out of the corner of Edward's eye, he could see the regret on Karina's face.
"At that time, I shouted at the Great Empress…." Karina showed her anxiety. If it were true that the woman she had yelled at was the Great Empress, that would get her into trouble.
"Not only you, me too. The Grand Councilor said not to be so impulsive later." Edward said.
"If she returns, what about the position of the Emperor's leadership?" Karina asked.
"I don't know, I don't know either. However, the two Great Advisors had already made it clear that they would side with the Great Empress. I hope for the wisdom of the Great Empress that is often touted about." Edward replied.
"When I looked at the painting, I could see why the Great Empress was highly venerated and revered in every Monastery and was dubbed the Great Goddess," Edward said, looking at Gabby's face painting.
"From any point of view, she looks like a goddess willing to set foot in this world," Karina said, accompanied by Edward's nod.
"Can't we meet her?" Karina asked.
"At this time, there is no certainty, and the Grand Counselor cannot be sure when we will meet her again," Edward replied.
"So, we can only wait for her to come back." Edward nodded in agreement with Karina's words.

"Your Majesty, you are great. I can only know you from written history. But I believe you are the real ruler. Your servant here wants to meet you." A middle-aged man who looked religious clasped his hands on his chest, praying to the Goddess who was exalted during his lifetime.
Since childhood, he was obsessed with the figure of the Great Goddess Gabby, who had been worshipped for hundreds of years in the Queenby Empire. He was even willing to read over and over again the historical story of the awakening of the Queenby Empire in the hands of the Great Goddess he adored.
The rumours were circulating he believed them to be true. The appearance of the Great Goddess Gabby in the palace made him worship him even more so that he could meet the Great Goddess Gabby. However, he was angry when he learned that the arrival of the Great Goddess Gabby did not even receive an inappropriate welcome from Emperor Gabby. It made Belva hate her niece even more.
"Master Belva, tomorrow there will be an Imperial meeting, will you attend the meeting?"
An ageing man stood behind the man who was praying with wisdom.
"Of course," Belva finished her prayer and answered the man. "The Great Goddess is back. Isn't that so, Chief Cardinal?" He showed a happy smile.
"May the Empire be blessed the Great Goddess Gabby."
The older man, who was a Chief Cardinal by the profession of the monastery, only replied in kind. He knew that Belva was a man who greatly glorified the Great Goddess Gabby.
Belva left the Monastery and returned to her residence with a smile etched. With the appearance of the true ruler, Belva was able to dethrone Edward from the position of Emperor.
Belva does not intend to occupy the throne of the Emperor. He only hates Edward, even though he has the same blood as Edward. He didn't care who would occupy the throne later because the one who could sit on the Emperor's throne was not only Edward. There were still 4 Imperial Princes who could occupy the Emperor's throne. It would be even better for Belva if the throne of the Empire's leadership returned to the hands of the highly adored Gabby.
The next day, the ministers and the Council of Nobles gathered at the palace for a meeting. Tiffany and Xora were also present at the meeting because they were already considered the heart of the Empire at this time.
Belva was very sided with Tiffany and Xora, even though the two Grand Counselors had often reminded Belva not to overdo it because Gabby wouldn't like it. But the warning came only from Belva's right ear and out of Belva's left ear.
The meeting discussed the appearance of the Great Empress or the Great Goddess Gabby. This meeting was chaired by Tiffany, who was of the High-Elf race. Not a few refused Tiffany to chair the Imperial meeting, but many also agreed that Tiffany chair the meeting, including Emperor Edward, even though Tiffany is not a Human Race.
