Edited Novel of IBTMITL (Chapter 201-256)

Chapter 233

After the Empress was dragged away, Yovanes began to breathe even harder.

Whenever he breathed in, he gave a lot of strength to his shoulders, and at a glance, one can see that he was in a much worse condition than before.

"Doctor."

Florentia called the Doctor, who stood quietly in the corner with a frightened face.

"Oh, yes..."

Only then did the Doctor rush up to Emperor Yovanes and hold a bottle of medicine in his hand.

"To think that that person was sitting in the seat of the Empress."

Even though he got a little better after taking the medicine, Yovanes was still busy swearing at Lavigne.

In the eyes of others, Yovanes and Lavigne did not appear to be a very different kind of person.

Yovanes was busy staring contemptuously at the place where the Empress was taken.

Rulac, who sat on a chair near the bed and was looking at Yovanes with a pitiful heart for a moment, said in a quiet voice.

"Tia, Second Prince. Get out for a second."

"....I'll be nearby,"

Perez answered so and went outside with Florentia.

"Your Majesty."

As soon as the door closed, Rulac opened his mouth.

He didn't even intend to drag this conversation.

He just wanted to take his Granddaughter back to the Lombardi mansion and lay down on his bed.

"Do you want to punish Angenas?"

"Of course, why ask?"

Yovanes replied, drinking all the medicine and throwing an empty glass bottle.

"On the map of this Empire, I will erase Angenas."

Rulac shook his head in anger, justified only by himself.

Even though the sins he had committed turn back to him and now, even breathing became a pain, Yovanes never realized anything.

"How dare she bring their men into the palace. They're responsible for that too."

He didn't think about why he was poisoned, and instead he was struggling about the fact that he was poisoned.

That doesn't mean that Rulac had the affection to awaken the foolish emperor.

'It might be better for him to do that.'

At least the Second Prince is smart, unlike Yovanes.

That's how Rulac made his judgement and started to pursue.

"But wouldn't it be too much for you to do the work yourself?"

"It's alright. If I take a few days off---."

However, Rulac spoked without giving him a chance to respond properly to Yovanes, who was breathing and squinting.

"Please appoint the Crown Prince."

"The Crown Prince?"

Yovanes frowned.

It was a reaction that is so like Yovanes, who didn't want to share power with anyone.

"It's time to change your mind, Your Majesty."

But again, Rulac did not give the Emperor time to refute.

"So do I, but isn't it time for you to think about your succession? I can't believe there hasn't been a fixed successor yet. What would happen if Your Majesty died as he was?"
