T/N: I hope you read to the end of this chapter!!! There is news that I wish to share with you guys!!!

A miracle descended on Crombell.
"Did you hear that the Continental Army surrendered and withdrew? It seems that black magicians were hiding among them. Those who put the honor of our Empire to the ground in the name of killing the black magicians have the audacity to do so......"
"Fortunately, the wise Third Prince-nim killed the insane Emperor, erased the black magician Kazer de Crombell from the royal genealogy, and handed over the corpse to the magic tower, right? The Continental Alliance is now in a position to have to vomit a huge amount of compensation, not just because its justification has disappeared."
Black magicians sneaked in between the Continental Army, and the magic tower revealed that each of the emperors and kings who had formed the Continental Alliance knew about it but remained silent. The justification they made while invading the Crombell Empire was, on the contrary, strangling them. That was how the situation was completely reversed. The Continental Alliance had now been forced to bow to the new Emperor of Crombell.
"Crombell's honor has been restored by His Majesty the new Emperor. Besides, isn't it said that the Small Countess of Millen was the Master of the magic tower? A noble of the Empire is a magician. What greater glory could there be than this?"
"That's right. It’s said that she died in Alton...... Indeed, it makes sense that Ambrosia has not been able to show up. There's a saying that it's to save Sarah Millen. That's why the magic tower only works through the Duke of Ambrosia."
"Heaven...... But why was Sarah Millen working as a nanny for Ambrosia’s family?"
"I'm also wondering about that."
The nobles paid attention to Sarah Millen, who was newly emerging in Crombell's power structure. The overwhelming power she and the magicians showed on the battlefield was both beautiful and destructive. Besides, she was a person who was so loved by the nobles, and who wore the honor all over her body. The nobles' heads were already spinning rapidly.

When all the Imperial people and nobles of Crombell were immersed in a festive mood, the Imperial Palace was now running wild preparing for another war.
"Duke Ambrosia, do you think I can handle all of this now? I can't even remember the last time I saw the faces of Elexa and Penelois."
Eleon de Crombell, who became the new emperor of Crombell, kept crying with a pale face. Having stripped away all of his face and dignity, he lay down on his desk and wept bitterly.
"Negotiations with the Continental Alliance have not yet been completed, and the nobles who do not acknowledge the usurpation of the throne have not been dealt with. What is the meaning of the coronation ceremony?"
It was Eleon, who vigorously drove out his father, the Emperor, and took over the Imperial Palace, but even he could not regain his senses as he felt like he had become a chess piece on the board arranged by Ethan Ambrosia. Eleon mechanically carried out the schedule Ethan had drawn up over and over again, and eventually raised the white flag.
"Don't worry too much, Your Majesty. When do you think I started preparing for this?"
Ethan ignored Eleon's angry declaration of surrender with a snort. He slammed a huge amount of ledgers down on the desk where Eleon was resting his cheek. Raising his head in surprise, Eleon's eyes were filled with Ethan's cold smile.
"I have all the circumstantial evidence that the nobles stole slush funds while the war was in full swing, and the circumstantial evidence of using the war to fill their own pocket and not protect the territories’ people."
"This is all......"
"There will be no one who will not follow Your Majesty even after seeing this."
Eleon looked at the ledger Ethan held out with a slightly tired face. There was a lot of evidence that half of the Empire's nobles could be executed just by revealing and punishing them one by one. Thanks to this ledger, Eleon could wield the strongest Imperial power in history.
"......Is Ambrosia not greedy? At this level, even if you claim the throne, no one will be able to say anything."
"You're talking nonsense, Your Majesty."
Ethan narrowed his brows as if he were saying something really useless and continued.
"Why would I do that bothersome thing? I'm busy."
"......"
Eleon looked at Ethan, who seemed to find the position of emperor of the Crombell Empire really, truly, a chore, and kept his mouth shut.
"So, Your Majesty, hurry up and take full control of the Empire, and give me a vacation."
"......I promise you, Duke."

"Duke-nim is here?"
"Yes, Sarah-nim. He bought a huge bouquet of flowers. That means......"
"Is it today?!"
Sarah couldn't hide her excitement, put her hands together and cheered silently.
"Claude-nim was right. As expected, Duke-nim is trying to propose to me!"
Even if it wasn't so, testimonies were pouring in here and there that Ethan seemed to be preparing to propose to her. The nobles were busy debating who the owner of the ring was when they heard that Ethan was calling all the excellent craftsmen in the Empire to make the ring. Jewelers screamed with happiness that they were buying the highest price from Ambrosia, the family where diamonds came in. Belluna hinted to Sarah that she was researching a magic spell that would make flowers bloom more lusciously and fresher at Ethan's prompting.
"Oh my, oh my, oh my......"

T/N: Hello, Eliza is here! I finally finish translating this novel. Yayy!!!
This is the first time I ever translated a novel. Of course, I have translated manhwa before, but translating a novel is a whole new level. It requires a lot of patience, time, and dedication. You guys don’t know how many times I thought of dropping this one.
When I first translated this, I was jobless due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so I had a lot of time on my hand. I remembered translating and posting 1-2 chapters per day at that time. 2 months later, I got a job, and I had less and less time to translate. That’s the reason why anyone who follows this novel from the start may notice the release schedule is getting sparse day by day.
But now, after more than a year, after countless times of self-pushing, and after numerous times of insufferable back pain and neck pain, I have finished this novel. Of course, apart from giving myself a pat on the back, I have to thank you guys, readers of this novel, who keep reading all these chapters. You guys are one of many reasons why I can continue doing this.
All in all, thank you for supporting the translation of the novel, despite many, many shortcomings.
Sincerely,
Eliza.

P/S: I just started a new project, a novel of the detective and investigation genre. It also has a mystery touch (special ability). If you are interested in this genre like me, please take a look at this novel. Thank you.
