While the rest of the world was busy debating over her intentions and plans, Emilia found herself being scolded by Noelle for what felt like the tenth time that day. "Irresponsible, careless, and stupid to the extreme—!" The crimson-haired beauty looked away in embarrassment as the older girl continued huffing and puffing for almost a full minute before finally taking a deep breath to calm down. "Listen… I know you're probably used to taking some 'risks' now after going…

Although General Green had only brought along his most trustworthy subordinates, when their numbers were combined with the president and the others, they were still over forty of them in total. With such a large group, it would obviously be incredibly difficult to remain unnoticed while moving through the city, which was why General Green had opted to hide and wait for the arranged 'escape vehicle' first. Of course, they could always separate and go out in smaller groups, but that would…

"Princess, since Grimlock Green has already convinced the people inside to open the entrance to the bunker, should we—" Emilia waved her hand with a smile. "Not yet, no. Just watch for now." The secretary paused in surprise, but after hesitating for a moment, she still decided to just do as she was told. Since this was one of the rare few moments when she could be alone with the princess, why spend this precious time arguing with her over pointless…

Hearing the name of the famed 'war hero' from the intelligence director's mouth, the despairing ex-president suddenly felt a spark of hope re-ignite in his heart. "T-That's right! Even if they managed to take over the northern and central provinces along with the capital, there's no way that my people would surrender so easily to these outside forces!" Thinking about how his loyal men must have fought tooth and nail to recapture the capital before they finally managed to come to his…

Emilia didn't seem to care about the old general's expression twisting hideously at all as she smiled. "Why do you look so unwilling? It's as if you don't even realize that whether it was your first proposal or the second one, nothing would change even if I accepted them, do you?" General Green's face on the screen froze for a moment, but he shook his head soon enough. 'I knew she would be childish and resentful, but really, she's even worse than I could have ever imagined.' To think…

Noelle knew that while Emilia may wave off the matter of being the newly established empire's monarch as something that hadn't truly happened yet, in most people's perception, that wasn't the case at all. After all, not only was Emilia the leader of the rebellion supported by the majority, but she was also widely accepted as Blue Dawn's ray of hope. Not to mention people being unable to accept her as their monarch, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that her position was completely…

When it came to managing her 'territory', Emilia very much preferred selecting capable people and letting them do what they were good at to micro-managing every little thing herself. After all, as long as she made sure that their views on what needed to be done and how she wants things to be handled were clear enough, it would not only be much more efficient, but also extremely effective. Needless to say, the reason she had picked the leader of the 'rebels' in the northern province as…

Since there was no way to refute that the leaked blueprints from their neighboring enemy and the Black Tiger were completely identical, that left only two possibilities. First, the Black Tiger could have been cooperating with their neighboring enemy from the beginning, and was only pretending to be somewhat loyal to Oriana. Or second, and much more likely, was that they got greedy and ended up selling the blueprints thinking that no one would find out. After all, while it was unlikely,…

General Green had been in the Blue Dawn army for over thirty-five years. He was the one who presided over all the operations in the eastern military base, and also one of the most widely acknowledged war heroes of the country. There had been many times that he wondered when they might face a major crisis in the hands of their neighboring enemies such as Red Dusk, but never did he ever imagine that the real crisis would come from the heart of the country itself, and not the border. "Who…

As soon as the news of the attack reached their ears, all the big names of the capital directly fled from their respective homes and offices towards the secure facility underground. This was not only to make sure they didn't fall victim to an unexpected airstrike, but also because they weren't sure just how deep the rotten roots of the rebellion had dug into the capital. With the current capability of the rebel forces, they really didn't dare bet their lives on just the few soldiers…
