Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1205 - 878: King’s Procession and Royal Auspice

Chapter 1205: Chapter 878: King’s Procession and Royal Auspice

But now he knew.

That was clearly a godlike figure!

...Am I really going to stand against such an existence?

The nobleman couldn’t help but feel his heart flutter.

"Your Highness."

"Your Highness."

Beside him, the knights protecting the nobleman all began to call out to him, snapping him out of his daze.

The nobleman reflexively looked towards the surrounding knights, only to see faces full of horror and dread.

The knights were even more distraught than the nobleman, some collapsing to the ground, others trembling uncontrollably.

"...Let’s go."

In the end, the nobleman did not muster the courage to enter the queen’s chamber to confront Reiger and the others.

"We need to plan carefully..."

Turning away, the nobleman’s face was clouded, his heart heavy and desolate.

After the nobleman left, the Deputy Knight Captain of the legendary figure received an instruction after using a communication magic crystal.

"Leave them be, I will personally go meet them."

After leaving this indifferent remark, the communication was cut off.

...

The interior of the queen’s chamber was even more magnificent compared to the outside.

The materials used to build this grand chamber were clearly custom-made White Burning Stones, which were rarer and more expensive than ordinary ones, making the entire palace look like a chalk castle, and the temperature inside was even more comfortable.

Along the way, Reiger and the others saw the extremely expensive magical crystal chandeliers, the luxurious carpet covering every inch of the floor, and countless high-priced furniture and decorations, especially the paintings hanging on the walls or swords, guns, and halberds—the artifacts that were of historical value and gave the whole palace an extravagantly lavish feel. If Reiger and the others weren’t experienced, they might have been stunned by now.

Despite being such a lavishly extravagant chamber, upon entering, Yanifet kept frowning, looking somewhat displeased.

"It seems that all the queens after me were just a bunch of vulgar people—which explains why they’ve governed this country into its current state."

Yanifet unreservedly critiqued the past queens of the Tistis Kingdom, her words rather venomous.

There’s no helping it.

"During my time, I had no leisure to deal with these superficial things."

With that non-explanation explanation, Yanifet walked straight towards the depths of the chamber.

"Um... Miss Yanifet?" Liz cautiously asked, "Where are we going now?"

"To meet the current queen," Yanifet replied without much hesitation, "Isn’t that why you all came here? I also want to meet her, to see what kind of reason she has for neglecting political duties so much."

Her tone was cold, making Reiger and the others realize almost immediately that if the queen failed to satisfy Yanifet, she would undoubtedly suffer a miserable fate.

Naturally, no one said anything about this, not even the kind-hearted little princess, who remained silent after hesitating for a moment.

The current queen of the Tistis Kingdom indeed gave off a less favorable impression.

In times of political unrest, as a ruler, she should stand up decisively and do her utmost to stabilize the nation’s situation. Yet, the current queen of the Tistis Kingdom abandoned her duties, shut herself away for years, igniting the already unstable situation, creating factions of the Prince and Princess, splitting the state power and resulting in constant maneuvering and external and internal troubles.

If this queen could have stepped up at critical times, she could have stabilized the situation, preventing the split of national authority.

But not only did she not do that, she started shutting her doors to everyone, ignoring her duties, becoming a hands-off ruler. Such irresponsibility, without a valid reason, would not pass with Yanifet.

With Yanifet’s character, if the queen couldn’t provide a satisfying explanation, she might resolve the country’s current issues in the most ruthless way possible.

In that case, the current queen would certainly have culpability.

If such an event occurred, it would be a consequence of her own actions, and naturally no one had a position to say more.

Reiger wasn’t concerned about this matter, but rather observed his surroundings.

"This chamber..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, a transparent gleam flashing in his eyes.

In a state of seeing through the world, Reiger sensed many eyes and discovered many hidden individuals in the shadows.

"Are they the secret guards of the chamber?"

"No, it doesn’t seem like it."

"The feeling of these sights...is it surveillance?"

Reiger thoughtfully ended his transparent world.

Thus, ten or so minutes later, Reiger and the others arrived at the deepest part of the grand chamber.

Their destination was a vast room located here.

Even though they hadn’t entered inside, the double doors, at least four meters high and three meters wide, indicated that the internal space must be extremely large.

And here, surprisingly, two individuals stood before the door, becoming the first to dare obstruct their path.

"Oh..."

Upon approaching, while others hadn’t reacted, Leo was the first to exclaim in astonishment.

For the two people appearing before them were identical twins.

"Welcome, esteemed ones."

In unison, the two executed a formal salute to the group.

They donned white court dresses, with quite delicate features and a tall, graceful stature. Perhaps individually they were not as striking as Liz, Yuloli, Ellie, or others who possessed top-tier beauty throughout the continent, but together they formed a compelling charm and presence that rivaled Liz and the others.

"I am Anna."

"I am Reina."

"We are the queen’s trusted aides and attendants. We welcome you once again."

The two female swordsmen, identical in looks, even in dress, voice, expression, and gaze, spoke in unison, eliciting another exclamation from Leo.

Only Yanifet, upon observing these identical twins, spoke with narrowed eyes.

"Girls from the Altrue Family?"

Upon hearing this, the twin girls’ movements froze for a moment before nodding.

"Yes, esteemed one."

"Both of us indeed come from the Altrue Family."

Their manner towards Yanifet was wholly respectful, even reverent.

Their demeanor resembled more of kneeling before a deity than facing visiting nobles.

"Altrue is still the same, always able to produce attendants like you who are pleasing to the eye for the royal family." Yanifet said, either out of lament or nostalgia, "Since Altrue still serves the royal family, girls, call forth the one you serve."

If these words were heard outside, they would surely stir up a large commotion, wouldn’t they?

After all, it is like telling the queen to come and pay respects to oneself.

With such arrogance, if it were someone else, a conflict would be inevitable, and even punitive measures could be taken.

But the twin girls clearly knew who was before them, exchanging a glance before shaking their heads in unison.

"Regrettably, Her Majesty cannot come to meet you."

Upon hearing this, Yanifet’s expression visibly darkened.

The twin girls’ breaths hitched, feeling their bodies burdened and nearly kneeling.

"In light of your ancestors who also served me, I will not hold this first disrespect against you."

Yanifet spoke coldly.

"Have the current queen come to meet me."
