Chapitre 472: Shadowy Truth

It was almost an entire day later when the three debated in the emperor’s personal library, where they poured themselves into numerous historical and philosophical books. All three discussed the many merits and disadvantages of such an alliance, but couldn’t reach any certain conclusion.

The decision was beyond difficult for someone like Claire to handle - as the emperor had stated, the future of the empire was pretty much in her hands. More critically, the future of the people was in her hands.

They shook wildly as the reality of it all continued to bombard her. If she chose poorly, all could be burnt to ashes and scattered to the wind.

At least, that was how she felt about the decision, no matter how much Freya attempted to ease her mind.

And just as Claire felt she was on the verge of an anxious breakdown, Raijin stepped through the open doorway into the library itself. All three of them leapt up from where they were seated and immediately greeted and hugged her.
