Chapter 109 (1) - I Appoint You the New Empress of the Marvinus Empire

[Side Story: The First Episode]

The life of the dead is in the memory of the living.

Rosemond Mary La Phelps was spending her time in a dream-like state these days.

The dethroned Empress Petronilla, her greatest rival in love and political opponent, was executed not too long ago. If the nobles maintained their sanity, they would not dare to bring in a new candidate to become the Empress when Rosemond was already right there. So, unless something unexpected occurred, she would be next in line to become the Empress of the Marvinus Empire.

The coronation to become the Empress was Rosemond's long, in fact lifelong, aspiration. She had even been caught up in the contemplation of whether all the pain of the past had happened and existed for the happiness to come in the future.
