Episode 65 - The Knights Destiny 2 'The Imperial Decree'

Waiting half a year for all the children to fully heal, The Imperial Palace finally sent in a decree for all aristocrats of Xenperia and the victims involved to be summoned to the Imperial Palace.

All aristocrats gathering together into one big hall only happens once a year, for every beginning of a new year. So having everyone gather together only meant one thing. Xenperia will go through a new wave of change.

As for what will happen at the Imperial Palace the decree didn't mention, however judging from the time period, everyone could guess that the Imperial family will finally announce the details of the attempted assassination on the Crown Prince. This detail was what everyone including the aristocrats, commoners, high ranking people of other countries were anxiously waiting for, because other than the big incident involving mass amounts of papers floating around Xenperia for one full day listing the alleged detail of what had happened at the Imperial Palace, no one really knew any official details of the attempted assassination!

Everyone was curious as to who was behind the incident and also were curious as to who saved the Crown Prince. Was it the guard? Was it the Great Nobles? Who will be the hero of Xenperia? Will they get a promotion, are what lower aristocrats were worried about. As for why they are worried, the reason is simple. Ever since the current Emperor took the throne, the one big change he did to Xenperia was diluting the powers aristocrats had over Xenperia. Over 70% of aristocrats have completely been stripped of their titles or were stripped of their power. The power the former aristocrats were stripped out of was then delegated to the current aristocrats; the Great Nobles having the most power in terms of handling the affairs of Xenperia, besides the Imperial family.

And that is why the appearance of the person who saved the Crown Prince threatens the lower aristocrats so much. They were afraid that their powers would be even more diluted and then eventually having their ranks completely stipped off them! To them, who stand on top of commoners, it was simply unacceptable to ever become a commoner!

What the lower aristocrats were worried about ... shouldn't even be of worry.

Since the beginning of the current Emperor's reign, what the Emperor wanted from the aristocrats was just one single thing. And that was for them to do their jobs as aristocrats, and not be a lazy pig! As long as no one made a mistake, and as long as they do their jobs properly as lords for the people, they will be able to retain their ranks and titles.

"Aeselak, Aedelak"

A girlish voice of a small child called out.

The figure of the small child with a height of half a meter then slowly slid down from the chair she was sitting on. After adjusting her dress, the 9-month-old Eugene stood up straight, waiting for the two people she called to come over.

"Yes Eldest Miss"

Aedelak and Aeselak immediately came over, kneeling in front of Eugene who was fiddling with the brooch the house of Veria customized for them. Besides Aedelak and Aeselak, the twins also have the same identical brooches. The four brooches signify the unity and upgraded relationship between the twins and the sisters!

This brooch was decorated with small diamonds and crystals to go well with the aesthetics of the cute twins. The brooches at first were refused by Aedelak and Aeselak because it was improper for them to accept such expensive jewelry, however, when the Duchess mentioned an upgraded relationship from friendship to the twins' assistant, they were more than willing! The jobs the two currently have will remain the same, but they will become a personal butler to the twins, dealing with everything in regardings to the twins from here onwards.
