The Soul Substitute Trash of the Duke Family
Chapter 77

Iven cursed in annoyance. Yesterday's events left him shaken and now a handsome man dressed as a woman returns down the corridors of the palace, considering that today the crown prince of Seanthuria is visiting as well as spying on the imperial palace.

And his task now is to re-introduce the crown prince Casian with a different make-up. While he was grumbling, he did not realize the Emperor was looking at him amusedly.

"Don't look at me like that, Sire!" Iven exasperatedly paid no heed to his manners as he realized the red-haired handsome man with piercing was staring at him intensely.

"You fit in that kind of appearance, Iven. I'm stunned by you female version." Said Emperor Ein in a seductive tone that made Iven disgusted.

"If I hadn't noticed your strange way of walking and heard your familiar voice, I'd have thought you were a real woman." Said Emperor Ein while stupefied.

How not. Iven walked while lifting the end of his dress quite high, showing off his legs wrapped in typical soldier trousers and men's special shoes.

Angry twitches adorned the face of the jejadian girl.

"Ah, I almost seduced you." Guru Emperor.

"I'm still normal, Sire." Dengus Iven disgusted.

"alright. I'm giving you an important mission. Call Leona, Wei Tao, Kiara, Khalix and Eura. I have something to tell you."

The Kricia necklace is a necklace derived from an artifact used to seal the king of darkness. The necklace required a great deal of mana to use, let alone to control people simultaneously.

The necklace is guarded by a demon, before the king of Grambiel and his troops managed to find the necklace after killing the demon leader.

The necklace was used by the king of Grambiel to control the four dukes to run his regime of leadership which was quite cruel for three years, after the death of queen Errena. Many people were left homeless, children and women disappeared, and the emergence of the Orch people in the capital.

Those who disappeared were mostly ten years old and above. The curious emperor had his spies investigate their whereabouts. And they disappeared because they were sold by their King to the Orchs, in order to cooperate to attack the Kamitsuki empire.

Leona et al heard the emperor's explanation of choosing to silence withhold anger. They want to overthrow the kingdom right now. Moreover, Khalix who is a former prince was so furious to hear this.

"Baginda, it looks like they're going to invade our empire. Before that he would attack Bloom Mist village in search of war slaves." Kei said that made the emperor furious.

If the village is destroyed, where will he go on vacation at the time of day? The village has a very beautiful view, built by Leona and Jim very perfectly. The emperor did not want to lose the village.

"aparteo, Khalix. You guys leave immediately and make a mess in that royal palace. The rest immediately prepare for battle." Emperor Ein's word was firm.

'Prangg's'

"Damn it!"

Again there was poison in the queen's food. The graceful woman could not eat for a week and now her body was thin.

Eating with the king? The man was too busy with his workers and was planning about the war.

His two? They visited the Kamitsuki Empire to visit and spy on their movements on the orders of the king of Grambiel.

Slowly the servants in the queen's palace were reduced. No one dared to apply for a job at the queen's palace. Many slanted rumors circulated in the palace and outside the palace.

"Call Iris to the palace, hurry!" Shouted queen Lydia at her subordinates. She just remembered that Iris has light magic.

"Well, Your Majesty."

The service immediately went to meet Iris who was going to attend a tea party at one of the noble houses. And luckily the location is not far from the palace.

After a long while of waiting, Iris finally arrived at the queen's palace and faced.

"The royal Moonlight. May the gods bless."

The sound of a slap echoed in the queen's private room. Iris who had just arrived in the slap just like that without knowing the reason.

"You were just coming here when the crown prince was at the palace?! Are you trying to become a traitor by letting the royal queen suffer like this?!" Shouted queen Lydia hysterically while torturing Iris.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty." Said Iris while bending over to endure the pain. Just this time he saw the mask of the queen Lydia who used to be gentle with him.

"If it wasn't because you had light magic, I wouldn't have agreed to your engagement to the crown prince. You don't have royal blood. Just because Castallio picked you up, you thought you could become a noble, a commoner!" Maki Lydia sharply made Iris bow.

"Hurry up and heal me!" Order of queen Lydia.

Iris immediately channeled her light magic to queen Lydia. Slowly the queen's state began to improve, although her appearance did not change.

"If only you didn't have light magic, perhaps the king wouldn't have glanced at you as my son's precious fiance. You can go now." The queen Lydia Ketus.

Iris immediately resigned. During the trip to the Castallio residence, the girl kept shedding tears.

Iris cried a mouthful. She felt her circumstances were heavier after getting engaged to the crown prince. In fact, not infrequently many nobles who gossiped because they supported a brutal government regime.

The Castallio family no longer cared for her, while their engagement had already lasted for three years and had yet to decide on a wedding date. Not even infrequently Iris saw the crown prince busy seducing some women right before her eyes.

His love story is not as smooth as he thought it was a novel he read. Where they have happy endings until the rest of their age. But not for Iris, her love story is very complicated.

He loved the crown prince and gave up everything, but alas, everything was in vain. The crown prince had never wanted to care about her since two years ago and that made her sad.

'The crown prince is only using you who have light magic.'The mind in the heart. He was tired of chasing after the crown prince's love that always hurt him.

"I'm really stupid, yeah..." The lyrics are crying.

Leona decided to return to Bloom Mist village and gather her subordinates scattered throughout the village. He wants them to prepare before the attack starts.

"I brought word from the Imperial Palace. The Orchs together with some of the Seanthurian royal palace troops will attack our village and make us slaves of war."

The rumbling and swearing sounds broke instantly.

"I want you to prepare from now on. We don't know when they'll attack our village."

"Good, Miss."

They began to plan several routes to set traps and traps. Leona also gave the idea that the casualties that came from his side were not many, if necessary there was no.

Jim who was also in the meeting with them could only be proud of his nephew. Although she was an insensitive girl with her spicy and sharp mouth, yet her ideas were very helpful in her work.

Meanwhile Khalix infiltrated the palace where the king worked after a day of stalking the king of Grambiel from afar. After the king left, Khalix immediately entered the place and began to open the various drawers of storage that were there. Khalix sought a royal seal to divide the two supporting camps belonging to the king and queen. If they were to fight, it would be very easy for them to carry out a rebellion.

After getting what he was looking for, Khalix immediately issued a fake letter and stamped the royal seal. He kept the stamp again as before and immediately left.

After being quite far from the palace and feeling safe, Khalix immediately summoned a royal postal dove. A white dove appeared and immediately flew low in front of Khalix.

Khalix tied a letter at the bird's feet and stared at it intently.

"Go and deliver this letter to duke Mizugami. This letter should reach the lord duke, not his successor. If it fails, then I'll bake you." Threaten Khalix and stare at the poor bird. The aura of intimidation plus the aura of killing him out was quite concentrated making the bird tremble in fear. Not to forget Khalix put on a cruel face that made the bird want to die this very second.

The bird seemed to understand what was being said nodded its head quickly. If only the bird could speak, perhaps he had already cursed and cried blood for having a cruel master like a demon.

Khalix threw the bird into the air and stared at the bird's departure expectantly. Duke Mizugami was the king's most loyal supporter, while the other dukes were supporters of the late queen Errena. Except for duke Castallio who is a neutral noble.

Because another week there will be an attack on the village belonging to Leona, and Khalix must make the fortresses of the palace supporters must fall apart and make the king of Grambiel dizzy seven circumference.
