He passed by Julius and Anastasia and ran straight toward Subaru.

"Pleiades!"

Russell Ferro's face darkened when he saw this.

It's not hard to find out that Natsuki Subaru and Emilia have a relationship.

But he didn't expect that their friendship was so deep that Emilia would disregard everything in this situation.

"Lady Emilia, please stay where you are!"

Russell quickly spoke up to stop him, his voice carrying a commanding tone.

But Emilia didn't stop.

Parker followed closely beside her, his hairy face full of anger.

His cat-like eyes were like two sharp knives, fixedly aimed at Subaru Natsuki.

He wasn't stupid, nor was he Emilia. Seeing the current situation, he could immediately guess what was going on!

That wretched guy, with his white hair, has already stirred up Lia's heart into chaos.

Who would have thought that now that he's changed back to black hair, he'd still cause such a huge mess!

Won't this drag Lia into this?!

"Flugel, you bastard!"

Parker muttered a curse in a low voice.

But he also knew that he had no chance of stopping Emilia.

He could only float behind, watching the Six Tongues members warily to prevent them from launching a surprise attack.

Emilia stopped in front of Subaru Natsuki.

Without pausing at all, she immediately began to examine his wounds. When her fingertips touched the blood-stained fabric and the deep, bone-revealing cut on Subaru's leg, her brows furrowed instantly.

"Subaru, how did you get hurt like this?"

"What exactly happened?"

Natsuki Subaru looked down at her hand, momentarily forgetting to answer.

Just then, a dissatisfied snort came from behind.

Puck floated beside Emilia's shoulder, his tail taut, his round eyes glaring fiercely at Subaru Natsuki, like an old man looking at his son-in-law!

No one noticed that, apart from Parker, Capela, who was in Clarissa's arms, also moved slightly.

She slightly raised her head from the shadow of the cloak, her gaze fixed on Emilia's fingers.

Every time that hand lingered on Subaru Natsuki's body for a moment, her pupils would contract slightly, and the corners of her mouth would twitch.

Capela tried to turn her head away, but quickly couldn't help but look back!

"It's just checking the injury, does it really need to take this long?"

Her voice was very low, almost squeezed out from between her teeth.

Emilia placed her hand on Subaru Natsuki's shoulder again, and even began to stroke it.

Capela's eyes twitched, and his teeth clenched so tightly they made a grinding sound.

The flesh and blood at the severed point on his body surged wildly, as if a sharp claw was about to grow out and cut off the hand pressing down on Subaru Natsuki.

Subaru Natsuki didn't notice any of this.

He was looking at Emilia.

The anger on his face had vanished, replaced by the joy of a turnaround.

Capela stared at him for a moment, finally swallowing back the angry words that were about to come out of his mouth.

What difference does it make if this man and that woman are on good terms with her? Her goal, Miss Capella, is to gain the respect and love of the whole world; losing one crazy man is nothing to her!

Despite saying that, she continued to stare intently at Emilia, her gaze growing increasingly gloomy.

When Natsuki Subaru saw Emilia standing opposite him, he almost thought that his lord was also preparing to stop him along with Russell and the others.

In that case, wouldn't all the plans I had painstakingly devised and sincerely offered her regarding Mycrotov be rendered useless, just like the plans I had given Anastasia a few days ago?

But who would have thought that, in the blink of an eye, the hen would turn into a duck!

Emilia not only did not show hostility towards him, nor did she scold him, nor did she back down.

Instead, they came to his side immediately and even personally checked his injuries.

This move was incredibly damaging to Subaru Natsuki!

This is enough to show that Lady Emilia is surprisingly wise when she wants to be!

She could tell who the true strategists were who were willing to clear the way for her, and she knew whose side to stand by at this time.

What a wise and enlightened ruler!

You are ten times more heroic than Anastasia!

Natsuki Subaru's lips slowly curled up. For such a wise ruler to become emperor, it would be worth it even if my eight hundred brothers died!

"Amelia!"

Natsuki Subaru suddenly opened his arms wide, as if he had finally waited for someone to receive the spoils of his battle:

"These are all wonderful gifts from our family to you!"

"Huh?"

Before Emilia could react, Subaru Natsuki grabbed her shoulders and pushed her toward the throne.

Subaru, what are you doing?

"Our family will help you get a 0-level certificate."

Subaru Natsuki spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, as if the dilapidated hall before him had become the site of a celebration.

"Our family will make you the true Lord of Lugnica!"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

Emilia stumbled a couple of steps after being pushed by him, and quickly turned around to grab his sleeve.

"How could this be allowed?! Isn't this rebellion?! And you still haven't told me what happened here!"

"Don't worry, don't worry."

"Our family isn't the kind of greedy guy who superficially supports your ascension to the throne but secretly wants to get a fief for himself!"

Natsuki Subaru patted her shoulder, his expression like that of someone comforting a monarch about to receive the homage of his officials.

"Everything is under our control."

"McLutov, the prime minister, is in my hands."

"I have eight hundred brothers who will live and die with me!"

"You also have the identity of a Chosen One!"

With each sentence Natsuki Subaru spoke, he pushed Emilia a little further in front of the throne.

“Once you sit down, Lugnica’s officials will naturally understand who the real ruler is.”

"Huh? Huh? Huh?"

Emilia's three confused moments.

He was half-heartedly pushed towards the throne by Subaru Natsuki.

Upon witnessing this scene, Russell Filo finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"A half-elf!!"

His voice boomed through the hall, and he no longer called Emilia by her name!

This startled Emilia...

The term "half-elf" clearly triggered some unpleasant memories for her.

"Were you also involved in this coup? Are all these people your subordinates?"

He raised his hand and pointed at Subaru Natsuki and the Aiko organization behind him, his face turning ashen with rage.

"As expected, none of you silver-haired half-elves are good people!"

The words "half-elf" froze Emilia in front of the throne.

"This has nothing to do with me..."

She wanted to explain, but her voice was already trembling.

When Parker saw his daughter had been wronged, his eyes immediately flashed with a fierce light. He was about to turn around and give Russell a good icicle to teach him a lesson.

As it turned out, Subaru Natsuki was one step ahead of him!

"How dare you insult my king! I'll cut off your head!"

Subaru Natsuki threw the Sanctuary Sword directly at Russell's face!

Having just suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Wilhelm, Subaru Natsuki's attack should not be underestimated.

Russell was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly as the sword tip drew ever closer. Had Wilhelm not intervened at the last moment, he would have been dead.

Subaru Natsuki, standing in front of the throne, did not stop.

He gently nudged Emilia, who was lost in thought because of the words "half-elf," and finally succeeded in placing her on the throne. The silver-haired girl instinctively grabbed the armrest, sitting in the position symbolizing royal power, looking bewildered and helpless.

Looking down at Russell, whose eyes were filled with vigilance and anger because he had taken this seat, I saw him.

Emilia realized that she had probably become the target of everyone's criticism because of this...

He tried desperately to get up.

Natsuki Subaru assumed Emilia was just making excuses, getting up once and being pushed back down each time.

"Traitor, how dare you!"

Seeing his beloved country's throne being insulted like a toilet to be sat on at will, Russell finally couldn't take it anymore.

Subaru Natsuki, however, simply pressed one hand on Emilia's shoulder, and turned to look into Russell's eyes with a calm expression, saying:

"This throne! Crusch can sit on it, but my Emilia can't?"

"From this day forward, Emilia is the new Queen of Lugnica, gentlemen! Who agrees? Who disagrees?"

Natsuki Subaru was only halfway through his sentence when Emilia completely broke down.

He quickly used all the strength that Subaru Natsuki couldn't suppress to stand up and covered Subaru Natsuki's mouth from behind.

"Subaru, stop talking!"

"You've really put me in a lot of trouble!"

Natsuki Subaru is still struggling!

He desperately tried to avoid Emilia's fragrant little hands with his mouth!

"No matter what, today I will leave this palace with Emilia, Mycroft, and myself!"

Emilia stopped what she was doing because of her confident tone.

What does this mean?

Subaru said he would take me with him no matter what?

And what did Subaru call me just now? My Emilia....

Emilia's breathing became slightly heavier without her realizing it. Was she so happy? It was clearly inappropriate, but she was just so happy.

Emilia remembered that when she arrived at the Hessin Merchant Guild that morning, Anastasia had told her that Subaru had already said goodbye to her.

Subaru has now regained his black hair.

In the presence of both himself and Anna, he voluntarily placed himself on the throne, rather than Anna.

And then there was the way Subaru defended him without hesitation after he was just insulted...

Has he already chosen my side?
