Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 152 Greetings, Your Majesty!

After leaving the bookstore, I took a car home.

After a pleasant dinner, Ita returned to her room to work, and Caesar also returned to his room under the pretext of studying, leaving Yumilia alone.

However, she wasn't idle for long. She quickly became friends with the maids in the mansion and asked them how they managed such a large mansion so well.

At first, the maids were somewhat wary of the master's adoptive mother, but they were quickly moved by Yumilia's girlish sincerity and unpretentious manners. They began to chat with her enthusiastically, and the conversation shifted from ordinary housework to everyday family matters, with each of them sharing the little things that happened in their own homes.

Inside the room, Caesar locked the door and went to the bathroom. He set up an automatically regenerating spirit, just in case, since Yumilia might enter his room, but she couldn't just wander into the bathroom.

Sitting on the toilet, he used his Domination ability to observe the situation in Ita's study again.

Her work sessions can last for several hours without interruption.
Caesar pondered for a moment, then closed his eyes, connecting his consciousness with the Formless Heaven. The surrounding washroom, covered in white tiles, crumbled and transformed into a tall and magnificent palace.

He sat upright on his throne, raised his hand, and summoned the phantom of Leogard.

As Ita was reviewing the report in front of her, a sudden flash of light appeared before her, and a rift, as if formed by a spatial distortion, unfolded directly in front of her, releasing a divine radiance.

The sudden anomaly immediately put Ita on high alert. She tried to call for Doruvan and Delina outside, but she quickly realized what was happening.

She had been taught by the head of the family before, and it was mentioned that the power of the Dragon Pact also included a qualification for inheritance.

The qualifications of that Holy Yuan Emperor to receive him.

Her lord, Leogard Holonig, as the emperor's close friend and subordinate, was qualified to enter His divine kingdom, and this qualification has now been passed down to her generation along with the power.

But this matter was too bizarre for her. The emperor was still alive. To be honest, she didn't have any hope in her heart. She had only regarded the teachings she received as legends and special rituals and hadn't taken them to heart.

But now, the legend has actually become reality, which has surprised her like never before, and she even wonders if it is her own hallucination.

Could it be that the emperor really didn't die? And now he's summoning me, his subordinate?

After a brief moment of thought, Ita quickly made a decision.

This summons could not have been faked; the oppressive aura that surpassed even the bloodline of the dragons could not possibly be replicated in the world.

So the question then arises: why did this emperor suddenly awaken and summon her?

Could it be because of recent family matters?
Her heart started racing involuntarily; it was hard to calm down when something like this happened.

But no matter what, she had to accept the summons, as it was an ancestral instruction established by her ancestors.

She cleared her throat and called out towards the door, "Dalina,"

"Yes," came Dalina's voice from the doorway.

"Don't bother me for the next two hours."

"Yes," Delina replied without asking why.

Once it was clear that no one would disturb it, Ita paused for a moment, then reached out and touched the holy light.

Her consciousness was instantly pulled in, and after a moment of detachment, she found herself standing in a fog. She cautiously observed her surroundings, making no unnecessary movements until everything became uncertain.

Just then, a deep but authoritative voice rang out from within the mist:
"You are the descendant of Leogard,"

In an instant, all the lingering mist was dispelled, and everything before her eyes suddenly became clear. Ita was shocked to find that she was in a magnificent palace that was beyond description, shrouded in holy light. The vermilion pillars stood tall like pillars supporting the sky, and it was incredibly grand.

Above them, on the throne, sat a blurry figure. Although his appearance was unclear, his identity could be deduced from the aura he exuded.

"Emperor Shengyuan, Reentandin!"

Although she had prepared herself mentally, Ita was still incredibly shocked when she actually saw Him.

The emperor who was said to have come into contact with the divine realm has actually descended!
"Is it really... His Majesty the Holy Yuan Emperor?"

She murmured softly, but quickly realized her mistake, immediately kneeling on one knee, head bowed, and hurriedly calling out:
"I am Ita Holonig, the 17th Dragon King of the Holonig Royal Court, a descendant of the ancestor Leogard! I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

The figure on the throne gave a low hum:
"Holonig's great-granddaughter, you are just like him, a subject of mine. Rise."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ita straightened up, trembling.

“You are very young, Ita,” Caesar tried his best to make his tone sound as gentle as an elder’s, but with the blessing of the Formless Heavenly Domain, this simple sentence still brought a strong sense of oppression.

"Because the previous Dragon King, my parents, passed away early, I took over the affairs of the Dragon Clan ahead of schedule," Ita quickly explained.

“But I will not fail my ancestors’ wishes. I will fulfill any imperial decree His Majesty may issue and do my utmost to complete it.”

She doesn't even dare to reveal the current state of the dragon race. If the emperor knew the situation, if he knew that she was the only dragon left in the world, she doesn't know how furious he would be.

But the emperor's next words stunned her again:
"I summoned you here to recount recent events. I have already sensed that a great upheaval is about to occur in the Frederick family, haven't I?"

Only then did she belatedly realize that His Majesty the Emperor now possessed godlike power, so how could he not be aware of the realities of the world?

He had complete control over all matters concerning the kingdom and his own family.

Moreover, he might not be the only one summoned by Him; there must be others under His command.

Now, facing this person, she dared not hide anything any longer and responded:

"The current representative of the dragon race, the Frederick family, is facing a huge crisis. Their family artifact, the Dragon Scale of the End Dragon, has been intercepted in the Morgans region, and now both the Finn and the Kingdom of Surna are eyeing it."

Caesar sat on his throne, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Although the Morgans region is under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Fein, it is not within the country but is located in the Kingdom of Solago. It is an important overseas exclave of the Kingdom of Fein. The important reason for this is that it has one of the world's busiest canals, the Solago Grand Canal, which is an important waterway connecting the Southern Ocean and the Yellowstone Sea.

He also knew about the dragon scale of the Dragon of the End. It was a sacred relic passed down through generations of the dragon royal family. In those days, every powerful kingdom possessed a national relic, a royal symbol. For example, the Eldaria Empire's relic was the Crown of the King and the Imperial Seal. The dragons' relic was the legendary first dragon king, the Dragon of the End, who made it from a single dragon scale. It was a sacred relic that truly represented the will of the great dragon race.

"Three months ago, the [Blood Production Project] encountered a bottleneck and needed the energy of the sacred relic to replenish it. So the sacred relic was brought out from the forbidden area of ​​the Southern Continent. Because the sacred relic was too high-ranking to be teleported, it could only be transported by ship to the family's research center in the Northern Territory. However, it was detained by the Finn authorities when it passed through the Solago Canal. They wanted to use the power of this sacred relic to hinder the opening of Elias's Tomb by Surna!"
