Chapter 97: "The Rise Of The New Sun"

Emperor Valerian cut off Empress Catharine's words and glared at her dangerously.

'What? You want to leave me?…just why?'

As Catherine was someone with low magic powers, Valerian's dominant pure fire magic power forced her to submit to him and shiver in fear.

Realising this, Valerian immediately controlled his mana powers and wanted to comfort Catherine.

"A-Am sorry… i didn't meant to-"

Catherine backed off and Valerian's hands which wanted to touch her face was left hanging on air.

"Heh… isn't this how it has been going on from the very beginning, Vale? This is how you forced me to marry you after i refused to marry the emperor.

Now my homeland doesn't even exists on the map because of your love! I become someone who destroyed her own country's fate because of you!

My father wasn't good, i was abused by my stepmother, my stepsisters mocked me but still i never felt so helpless and terrified like now, Vale!
