Isekai For My Ex

Chapter 91

Thinking about it, after fighting a war with the possessed Kydus, he mourned the death of Erneis, and then suffered as he saw his loved one Claire not waking up, and then finally ending up in another world in an attempt to end that suffering.

Is this fate something he deserves? He helped so many people but us the one"s he helped we can only help so little.

Ahh… seeing him like that makes me want to clear my thoughts with wine and a cigarette.

Young man, how far will you go, at this rate you are going to break soon.

As I was lost in my mind thinking about the young man, Eagle and Raven already finished their meal and went back to their families, their excuse was that they were sent with the party who"s looking for the hero from Ethareri who have disappeared after the war — Andrei"s nickname in the empire, as many Kydus knights have witnessed his contribution to the battlefield.

When Queen Michaela asked for our help in search for Andrei a search party was made, in order for Raven and Eagle to disappear in record, we listed them amongst that search party.

"Gideon!" The small empress shouted at me, as I wasn"t paying attention.

"W-What your imperial majesty?"

I was startled by her sharp and childish voice.

Ouch… I can feel my wife pinching my sides for not listening to the empress the whole time. Layla really cares about formalities.

"I"m saying… we should tell Queen Michaela and have them meet before he leaves"

"Huh?!! Why?!! Are you going against Andrei"s wishes?"

I was too surprised that I lost my formality, and my wife pinched me at the sides once again.

"I only went along Andrei"s wishes because I was grateful, but if Andrei keeps that up longer he will eventually break. At least… let"s have him meet… the woman he loves. That"s an order"

I guess this woman really deserves to be the new ruler of this empire; she doesn"t only has a good mind, but also a good heart.

Just from the reports of Eagle, she was able to make her own decision and thoughts.

"I humbly accept, but to do this to avoid scarring our relations with both of them for hiding the truth, let"s have Carle the head of the search part contact her, that way she"ll be convinced that we really helped her.

And for Andrei let"s play it dumb once they suddenly meet, he"s going to the other world after all, I"m sure if he gets angry it would subside after a year"

"That"s a magnificent idea Prime Minister Gideon!"

She replied to me while her eyes sparkled.

On outside she looks like a normal kid, but inside she is already a great ruler who can fight, think and feel.

...

??????? ?? ????????

"Your Highness, report for today, the production of guns have been keeping up, along with the establishment of the armed forces achieving the goal of the road map according to the notes, and sale of articles to Kydus Empire, with this the ministry of treasure have increased the warchest into 30% just from the sale of arms"


"I see, how about the development of the larger weapon?"

"About that, we still haven"t found a suitable magic user or craftsmen who can bend the metals at will"

"Then hurry it up, use the 10% of the sales and increase in the funds to the research and development but make sure they give it their all if they waste the budget, I"m expecting the completion of at least a prototype by the end of the year. Tell them to hurry up if they don"t want to lose their jobs"

"B-But Your Highness, the end of the year will be hard, we would have to go through winter, supplies of metal ores and saltpeter will be low that time around, shouldn"t we using the profits for something else?"

"No, we still have time before winter, let"s focus on defense first. Also, how are those attack boats and maneuvers coming along?"

"Yes, they are doing great maneuvers, with guns our soldiers can fight at sea"

"Great, how about searching for refugees like Eagle and Raven?"

"Ummm… for the air force huh…. the search is a bit hard, as their clan have been deemed as evil by the Holy Land of Adrar, according to the townsfolk that lives nearest to them, all of them were killed by the temple knights.

Are we sure we should continue this your majesty? Won"t we be deemed as the enemy of the church if we keep doing this?"

"Continue the search, next time try to search for the slaves with characteristics like them, and buy them at all costs understand? And you are right, getting the attention of the holy church would put us in a tough spot right now so try to avoid attention at all times"

"Yes, your mejsty!"

"Okay, you may go now, Geraldine. Good work for today, you may rest for today, thanks to you the plans that man left us is bearing fruits"

"No, your highness Michaela, it"s thanks to your efforts, and the notes" contribution to all this new technologies that we are having. I wish you a good rest your majesty"

"Yeah, thank you. You may leave now"

As the general of the armed forces of Ethareri, Gerladine Savoy exited the castle, I finally was able to rest easy.

Sick of sitting at the throne room everyday I stood up and immediately went to my room.

As I pa.s.sed by the hall, I saw the room unused for a year, the person who used this left it clean, but his belongings still remained in the drawer, however I"m not touching that room and its off limits to anyone.

It only reminds me of painful memories.

The moment Andrei left me in that despair I found strength, strength to become the proper queen I am right now.

I don"t need him anymore.

I pursed my lips as I steadily went towards my room, irritated I kicked the door of the room of that man.

How could he just leave like that, without saying a word, doing something about Claire"s illness? What? Is he going to travel to other lands to get the medicine? Does he even have a plan? That idiot!

Deep inside, I was deeply annoyed…

To keep any more damage to this kingdom, to make sure nothing more get"s taken away from me, I"ll make sure these weapon deals and research succeed, even if I have to work those blacksmiths to the bone.

I lay down at the bed and rolled on it, scattering my golden hair on the soft cus.h.i.+on made for the queen.

It"s true that I miss him so much, and that everyday I"m annoyed that he left me.
