Their world doesn't need gods.

Chapter 225: Concurrent with campus life, there is turmoil in the Imperial Palace (1)

"If there weren't these problems, would you have taken action against Al, Teacher Michelle?"

Liliana puffed up her cheeks unhappily and asked Michelle a soul-searching question.

"Who knows~"

Michelle looked away and did not give a positive answer.

(Ugh! I really shouldn’t have agreed to let Michelle live with us! What on earth was Rose thinking?!)

Liliana now felt extremely regretful.

But the matter was done, she had already agreed to move into the dormitory with Michelle, and there was no way to go back on her word now.

"I was just joking just now, Lily, please don't be really angry."

Seeing that Liliana didn't say anything, Michelle explained in a panic.

"I'm not angry!"

“Even when she’s in a bad mood, she’s very similar to Violet in the past… Actually, I’m very grateful to you for helping me find this photo, Lily… But…”

Michelle's face darkened slightly and her tone became very sad.

Her joy and sorrow changed so drastically that Liliana felt a little confused.

But Liliana believed that this might be Michelle's truest feeling.

"…But these people are gone now, so in order to avoid making the atmosphere too heavy, the joke went a little too far. Sorry, Lily."

"Since you know that this is a bit too much, please be careful next time, Master!"

Liliana solemnly handed the photo to Michelle and said in a stern tone.

"Also, if these are precious memories, please keep them well!"

"Pfft, I see. Thank you, Lily."

Michelle gently rubbed Liliana's head twice to thank her.

Different from her usual nonchalant attitude, Michelle at this moment gave people a very calm feeling.

It's like he's become a completely different person.

"No, you're welcome."

Liliana replied somewhat shyly.

"Then I'll go change my clothes, Al~ Don't peek!"

Michelle turned and looked at Al behind her, emphasizing in a playful tone.

Ah...it instantly returned to its normal state.

"Hmm? Okay..."

Alfred responded somewhat nonchalantly, which bothered Liliana.

The same thing happened with her previous conversation with Michelle.

Later on, the two of them didn't try to lower their voices, but Alfred had no intention of joining the conversation.

"Al what are you doing?"

"Pack these books and materials?"

Alfred looked up at Liliana and replied with a confused look on his face.

Liliana noticed that there was a faint blue light on Alfred's left eye.

Although she didn't know what the blue light was, she speculated that Alfred must be using some strange magical device to do something.

"This, this is it..."

Since Michelle was also in the room, Liliana decided not to ask any more questions.

I'll wait until I meet Alfred in the evening and then I'll talk things over clearly.

?◇?◇?◇?◇?

—Violet—

"Ah."

In the imperial capital, several kilometers away from Illya and Alia, is the residence of Duke Christiana.

Violet sneezed cutely in the reception room.

Because a very important meeting was going on, she briefly apologized to the other two people in the room and immediately regained her serious expression.

"Excuse me, what is the purpose of Prince Charles visiting Christiana's house at this moment?"

Violet and Liliana’s mother, the current Duke of Christiana, Milinda, took a sip of her tea and looked seriously at the young man sitting opposite her.

"What do you think of the current state of the empire?"

Charles did not answer directly, but asked Milianda and Violet with a somewhat arrogant smile.

Violet remained silent and did not react, but she felt very troubled in her heart.

If she had to describe Charles in one word, it would be troublesome and dangerous.

Charles is a playboy, arrogant and ambitious, but he does have commendable talents and should not be taken lightly.

"This question is really too general. If you ask me, the Empire is the Empire."

Milinda smiled and replied calmly.

"Pfft, that's not really an answer."

Charles crossed his legs and folded his hands on his knees.

"I think the Empire must change the status quo. After all, facing the Farel High Elf Kingdom to the west, we have had to adopt a humble attitude since the founding of the Empire.

"In the face of the Leidenscher Kingdom, which has repeatedly provoked our country, the royal palace only accepted it as a vassal state after the other party was defeated, and did not take further measures. Towards the Qinas, who caused us huge losses in the past, the attitude of the mother is also very negative, don't you think?"

Charles smiled arrogantly and talked about the current international situation on the mainland.

What he said was basically true, but the details didn't add up.

But to put it bluntly, Charles was just dissatisfied with the current Queen Rosalind II's policy of peaceful diplomacy.

"I have no intention of commenting on the Emperor's decision, or is your visit just to talk about these things?"

Milinda urged Charles to get to the point.

"I intend to change the empire, and to do that I will need the power of the Christiana family."

Charles raised a confident smile and went straight to the point.

"So, what do you want us to do?"

Milinda smiled back and asked.

"I heard that your youngest daughter, Miss Liliana, is a beautiful and talented woman, just like Miss Violet. So I want to discuss marriage with her. Would you be able to arrange it?"

After hearing what Charles said, Violet clenched her fists without saying a word.

If there had not been a difference in status, she would have beaten Charles up and thrown him out long ago.

To translate Charles' words, it means, I have taken a fancy to your Liliana and would like to allow her to become my wife, so please send her to me as soon as possible.

Moreover, Charles had already married the granddaughter of the Duke of Leopold. This meant that if Liliana really married Charles in the future, her status would still be below that girl.

Willie specifically accepted such an arrogant request. She even began to seriously consider whether she should officially go to war with the bastard who looked down on her precious sister.

However, Violet had received professional training after all, so she was able to keep her emotions from showing.

"Please forgive us for rejecting this matter."

Melinda still had a smile on her face. She paused for a moment to keep Charles in suspense before rejecting his request.
