Chapter 377 Going for Another Plan?

The morning came, around seven in the morning, and I found myself alone in my bed, fully naked. The quilt was bulging due to my instinctual morning tent; my blood cells were probably having a good time camping under it. My partner, Natasha, was supposed to be by my side since we had sex last night, but as diligent of a maid as she was, she had to get up earlier than the sun to start her day as our sole servant. (I want her to at least take care of my morning wood, but I can't help it. I guess I have to do it myself.)

Deciding to let it out in the toilet, I raised myself from the bed. As soon as I sat on the side to grope my flip-flops with my feet, I suddenly received a telepathic call from someone. Since I had something to mind now, my boner suddenly went limp. ((Good morning, Raphael, if it's morning in your current location.)) A male voice rang out in my mind, greeting me nicely. ((I apologize for disturbing you, but can I have a little bit of your time? It's urgent.))

((Oh, it's you. Yeah, it's morning here, and I just woke up. What's up this time?)) Once the flip-flops fit my feet, I stood up before I walked towards the windows and stood in front of them, staring at the rising sun butt-naked. I did not even bother to grab a robe for cover.

((Apparently, according to my reliable source, one of the higher-ups has arrived at the empire to settle the matters personally.))

((An higher-up, huh? They just lost a massive influence somewhere, so making it here in person would smooth the progress of their plans.))

((Alright, I got it.))

((Very well, Raphael. First of all...))

I conversed with him for several minutes, breaking down the details and brainstorming ideas. Due to the sudden arrival of this organization's higher-ups in the empire, a ripple would take effect that would change the course of the events, so we needed to come up with another plan as well. After analyzing the situation and foreseeing its consequences, we ultimately agreed to a plan. All we needed to do was properly execute them all. In the end, we agreed on a plan. ((That settles then.)) ((Thank you for having your time, Raphael. I'll be going now.))

Soon after, he ended the call. With a sudden change of plan, at least Big Sis could still have Christine if she succeeded. "But saving Edith, huh...?" Those words slipped from my mouth before I put on a white robe on my body and exited my room. ◆◇◆◇◆◇

In the morning, in the City of Louisiana at the Queendom of Raevender, three women were inside the queen's office. Queen Mylene, Claire, and Gabrielle were discussing the contents of the letter that suddenly appeared on the table. As they had guessed, it came from Raphael. They knew how talented he was, but they did not have an idea of how he managed to put it on there without any of them noticing. "So, Louise is really serious about making the daughter of Grise her spouse, huh?" Mylene said with a serious tone. "But isn't it too sudden?" "I can agree with that," Claire said in sync with Mylene. "If what Raphael wrote in the letter was true, then the annulment might lead to the empire's stagnation as the archduchy might incite a revolt against the empire for betraying their trust."

"By marrying their daughter to someone with an equal position as the prince, like Louise, our crown princess," Gabrielle expressed her opinion. "The archduke's anger toward the imperial family might lessen, and the tension between them would become more stable." "You might be right, but we can't always be optimistic about things," Claire said. "Let's say Louise successfully managed to win her heart, what if Archduke Grise won't approve of their relationship and shifts his anger toward us instead?" "That would be a huge problem, but they are definitely going to do it, and there's no way we can stop them." Mylene then sighed. "Anyway, we have to do our part and begin laying the groundwork for our proposal to the archduchy. To be honest, though, I am actually excited to meet my possible daughter-in-law." "Yeah, and the daughter of the County of Arcenciel is with them too," Claire grinned maliciously. "So there might be a chance that we might have one more in-law." "As long as they are happy, I have no problem with it." After Gabrielle said those words, the three of them chuckled as if they were looking forward to them positively. "Speaking of proposals, it would be a pain that this issue emerged when our marriage is just around the corner," Claire reminded, putting her fingers on her forehead. "I don't want to have lines on my forehead from the stress when that day comes." The Queendom of Raevender had announced that the marriage between Mylene, Claire, and Gabrielle would take place in the summer of this year. However, this unpredicted event probably suddenly occurred in their lives. They were worried about how it would affect that very special day. "Yeah, but we can't ignore this matter too. So let's do our jobs so that we don't have to postpone the date." "Very well, Mylene. For both our children's happiness as well as for us." Motivated, the three of them started doing the preparations and paperwork needed to settle the matter.
