The graduation ceremony was short, Valencia won first place as the best graduate of the year. He shifted Linnea's position and had always been ranked first in every exam the academy held during this one year. In addition, Valencia's reputation is growing over time. Valencia has a huge number of female fans, especially in the academy.
They respect Valencia's view of the position of women as equal to men. He changed a lot of things in the academy, from the discrimination the nobles did to the change in the rules order of the academy. Of course it initially reaped the pros and cons, but in the end they still agreed to the actions of Valencia.
"Miss Valencia, congratulations on graduating."
A number of Valencia juniors at the academy handed over several prizes to Valencia as congratulations on their graduation. They look very admiring Valencia, often they pay attention to Valencia from afar and send Valencia favorite food.
"thank you. You're all the best!" valencia smiled broadly.
At the same time, Henzo came to hand him a bouquet of diamonds in the shape of a rose. Instantly all eyes were glued for a moment to look directly at the diamond whose price was not playing expensive.
"It's a little gift from me."
Valencia received the diamond. "Uncle, is this edible?"
"No, you can't make diamonds food" Henzo replied.
"Then I won't accept it."
Surprisingly, Valencia refused the gift of a diamond bouquet given by Henzo. Henzo had prepared the gift from day to day for Valencia.
"Why? Is this less for you? Then I'll add the number of diamonds again" Henzo said.
"Did Uncle forget? I just need to eat! I don't need diamonds that can't be eaten" Valencia said.
Henzo chuckled at the words Valencia.
"If you don't have to ask anymore, I've prepared a lot of special meals for your graduation and Xeros."
Valencia took his diamond from Henzo. He looked very happy, although at that time there was Linnea who was staring enviously at what Valencia had obtained.
Abraham and Linita were also happy for Valencia's graduation. They also gave a gift to the girl. Then he got various interesting gifts from Reibert, Leano, Sammy, Frintz, Ivanov, and Rexid. Even Xeros who also celebrated graduation with him also gave him a gift.
"Let's party tonight!"
In the evening, Valencia called on all residents of the Archduke Calestine mansion to party with him. There everyone seems happy.
The party lasted for a full night and Valencia decided to stay at Henzo's mansion. Then in the morning, Valencia returned to the residence of Grand Duke Allerick.
"Where haven't you been all night straight back to the mansion?"
Helen — the Mother had apparently been waiting for the arrival of Valencia with a sour and cold expression as usual.
"It's none of your business" replied Valencia.
"Of course it's my business, I'm your mother! Please take care of your manners when talking to me."
Valencia let out a long sigh, he had just returned to this mansion and was immediately confronted by a problem he was desperate to avoid.
"Stop calling yourself my mother. I'm so sick of hearing that."
Valencia just passed Helen. That upset Helen, she did not want to let Valencia disappear from her sight.
"Wait, Valencia!" Helen had her daughter's wrist blocked. "I'm not done yet with bic—"
"Keep your hands off me!" Valencia turned Helen's hand down.
At that time Helen froze, Valencia's gaze towards her was like a gaze filled with embers of hatred. Disgust mixed with anger, it all became one.
Helen's body was petrified, she finally chose to let Valencia off from her. For some reason, the look in the princess's eyes gave her goosebumps.
'What the fuck is that look of her? I've never seen him like that.'
Valencia also arrived in his room, he observed the atmosphere around which still looks the same. Shortly thereafter, Valencia received an envelope from the Archduke Calestine's residence.
"Miss, this is the report of my investigation into Duke Nerio."
Valencia smiled obliquely as he read the report. A plan that leads to destruction, that's what will happen later.
"Watch your sufferings, I will smash you to pieces when the day of engagement comes."
***
Two days later, Valencia was called to the palace by Abraham. The girl fulfilled Abraham's call, she rushed to the palace before it was too late at the promised time.
"Miss Valencia Allerick has come."
The leaves of the entrance were wide open, at which time Valencia entered the magnificent throne room of the Emperor. In there Valencia discovered Henzo's presence with some of his subordinates and there were nobles who sided with Henzo. In the throne seat, there was Abraham sitting with Linita.
"Alright, since Miss Valencia Allerick has been here, I will read you an official announcement."
Abraham stood up from his throne, he unrolled the scrolls of official letters given by his subordinates.
"Some time ago, exactly one year earlier, Archduke Henzo Calestine made a request to adopt Miss Valencia Allerick and planned to be made the daughter and sole heir to the treasure, the fiefdom, the fiefdom, the title of Archduke Calestine. So through some consideration, I as Emperor will announce the end of the Archduke's request."
Abraham took a deep breath ahead of getting into his core announcement.
"Based on the investigation of the palace, Miss Valencia Allerick has been getting unfair treatment from both parents. During her growth she has been abandoned, neither the Grand Duke nor the Grand Duchess did her role as a good parent."
"Archduke Henzo Calestine offers a better life for Miss Valencia Allerick as well as promises the affection of parents in general. Therefore, as Emperor I approved the adoption request of the Archduke Calestine."
"From today, Valencia Allerick officially changed its last name to Valencia Calestine. He will play the sole heir and will enter the family lineage of the Archduke Calestine."
The official decree had been read aloud by Abraham. Valencia smiled elegantly in response to the decision. Similarly to Henzo, he seemed happy at the result of his difficulty in bringing Valencia in as his son. However, the reaction of the nobles there was very different.
"Your Majesty, what does all this mean? We never knew about your decision to adopt Miss Valencia to be the heir of the Archduke Calestine."
"Right, Your Majesty, we have never heard of it. Adopting a child of a high-class noble is not something simple."
Abraham had expected this to happen, and he gave Henzo a gesture. His sister's response was just shoulder kerfikan and innocent smile without sin.
"For so long Miss Valencia has been going through a difficult time as a child of Grand Duke Allerick. If he becomes the adopted child of Archduke Calestine, then he is sure to get comfort as well as a guarantee of a better life. Have you forgotten how much Miss Valencia saved the empire from harm?"
They exchanged glances, there was nothing wrong with what Abraham said. They cannot forget Valencia's service over the past year to them.
"Then, fine. We'll approve this decision."
Abraham heaved a sigh of relief, fortunately the nobles no longer protested any more.
"Your Majesty, may I speak now?" Valencia spoke up.
"Yes, what's wrong? Is there anything that makes you dissatisfied here?"
Valencia shakes. "Can you postpone the official announcement for one week to the public about the adoption of the Archduke Calestine?"
"Pending? Is there a reasonable reason to postpone it?"
Valencia stepped forward, handing over the envelope that Arian had given to Abraham.
"Please read the contents of this envelope."
Abraham quickly opened the envelope, petrified and shook his head in disbelief at what was inside.
"That is evidence of Duke Nerio's crime, coincidentally another week is the time where I was engaged to Young Master Nerio. I want to destroy them through the engagement, I will dismantle the whole rottenness of Duke Nerio. So, can you grant it?" valencia.
"Alright if this is your excuse. I'll make sure the same day you get Calestine's name behind your name."
Valencia carved a faint smile between his lips.
"Then, Your Majesty, I also request that you grant me permission to kill some other parasites that disturb the peace of Alegra. Of course, I will also include evidence as well as a solid reason why I want to commit murder."
