Complicated Situation

The meeting was conducted somewhat formally because all the behind-the-scenes discussions had already been concluded before Carl arrived.

Although he was a prince and an archduke, Carl readily decided to submit to Milione.

This attitude seemed somewhat unsettling to Milione, who was officially known as one of Charles' most ardent supporters.

Even if it appears that Carl has given in now, he may still be able to seize actual command on the scene. But Carl had no such intentions, and Milione, who had secretly heard the full story of the incident, had no intention of doing anything useless either.

All the highest powers of the empire, who have no room to be fooled by ideas like equality for all, are joining hands amicably.

At this very moment, without any complicated political intentions, everyone is holding the sword tightly in their hands to cut off the neck of heresy. And the sharpest sword was in Carl's hands.
