My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!-Chapter 380 - : First Marriage Proposal
Everything that was discussed with the clone, Eren was able to hear. Sitting on the throne, he couldn't help but smile, amused at how shamelessly the Cardinal was lying.
As for leaving tomorrow, he was already prepared for that. He still had to meet with the false Priestess and the Sea Dragon Empress after all. He also wanted to enter the Northern Continent as well.
As for this being his last night in the Holy City, he didn't agree with that. Now that he was the Holy Emperor, this place was his to devour. He also had the means to pass through the Holy Barrier as the Holy Emperor.
The Holy Priestess had welcomed a wolf into her home, but this wolf had no intention of leaving.
"Do you find something amusing?" The Holy Priestess asked, noticing the slightest smirk on Eren's lips.
"I am simply pleased that everyone seems to be enjoying themselves," Eren answered.
"You have hidden yourself quite deeply. Is this your true self that you had been concealing?" The Holy Priestess asked.
There was no way for a person to change so drastically. If she couldn't feel his distinct Royal Aura, she would have even wondered if someone else had replaced the Holy Emperor.
The only other explanation for this drastic change was that this had always been the Holy Emperor. He had been hiding himself, waiting for the right opportunity to strike.
With the involvement of the Eastern Envoys, he felt like he had found the opportunity, and now he was using it.
"I don't understand what you are talking about. I have always been myself," Eren answered, maintaining his calm. He had no reason to tell her the truth. The more she misunderstood, the better it was for him.
Throughout this conversation, neither of them looked directly at each other. It was as if they had been talking to themselves and not to one another.
"Since that is the case, I hope you will not regret it." The Holy Priestess stood up.
If she wanted to kill the Holy Emperor, there was no one here who could stop her. Even the Eastern Envoys were insignificant in front of her. If anything, even Feng Yu couldn't stop her if she wanted to kill a person in her domain.
Despite that, she didn't attack Eren. She was surprisingly calm. At this point in time, she couldn't afford to make any foolish decisions.
The Holy Priestess was about to go to war with the Necromancer Tower. She didn't have much time either since the Hell's Door was about to be opened.
If she failed in stopping the Necromancer Tower, then it was going to be disastrous for her.
She couldn't let the Necromancer Tower become stronger. At the same time, she couldn't let herself become weaker at such an important time.
That was why she couldn't afford to kill the Holy Emperor in the Holy City. At the same time, the Holy Emperor had to die so she could become the sole authority, receiving even more faith.
Previously, she was trying to kill him using a borrowed sword. But now that he had directed his fangs at her, she made up her mind that she was going to deal with him.
Tonight, the Holy Emperor had to die. As for the blame, it was going to be placed on Eren. Even if this could put their deal with the Eastern Continent in jeopardy, it was necessary.
Watching the Holy Priestess stand up to leave, it became clear that the Banquet had come to an end. The Cardinals also started leaving with her.
"Seraphina!" discover-stories-MVLeMpYr
"The Holy Priestess was about to step out of the hall when she heard someone call her name.
At that moment, there was a pin-drop silence in the entire hall. It had been a long time since someone had called the Holy Priestess by her name.
No one had the courage to use her name as it had become forbidden. And now, someone was calling her by her name in front of her? The person was none other than the Holy Emperor.
Seraphina's eyes narrowed as she turned around, her expression cold. She had not expected to be addressed so directly, especially by the Emperor.
Eren also stood up. Although he didn't want to do it after antagonizing her so much, he still had to complete the option. Even if it was embarrassing to propose in public, he had to do it.
It was the first time he was going to propose to someone while expecting a rejection.
He walked towards Seraphina while everyone was staring at him, including the Holy Emperor's family. All of them wondered if the Holy Emperor was actually going to declare a war on the Holy Church.
Uriel also didn't want the Holy Emperor to be a subordinate of the Holy Church but he also knew that it was not easy to win against the Holy Church as long as the Holy Priestess was alive.
Despite that, he was prepared to support his brother. His hands were behind his back, holding the hilt of his sword.
Eren stopped in front of the Holy Priestess who looked at him, wondering what he was scheming now.
In front of everyone's shocked gaze, Eren suddenly went down on his knees. A ring appeared in his hand which he raised towards Seraphina.
After taking a deep breath, he asked, "Will you marry me?"
In that instant, almost everyone's jaws dropped. Even the Cardinals who expected some kind of challenge from him went blank. Cardinal Treniel, who had always been extremely calm, also couldn't hide his shocked reaction. freewebnσvel.cøm
The most shocked in this place was none other than the two girls who had accompanied Eren. Yu Lin and Zia didn't know how to react, their fists clenching even more tightly. Both of them knew that the one proposing wasn't the Holy Emperor but Eren.
"Huh?" Eren was expecting a rejection but before he could hear a response from the Holy Priestess, his gaze fell on the veiled woman standing outside the hall.
