Chapter 756: Chapter 298: Princess, my humble home is quite spacious indeed_3

Juno, holding a cup of tea, knew that Wayne wouldn’t start the conversation and bluntly said, "I’ve been missing for too long, and with my brother setting me up and framing me, I have many secrets that can’t be explained. Mother has grounded me and even formed an investigative team."

Juno was beset with troubles; being grounded didn’t scare her, what scared her was the investigative team.

They couldn’t possibly check everything, but what if they discovered something?

"Tell the truth, out with it, don’t hide anything."

Wayne set down his tea and said, "You might not believe it, but I know very little about the Royal Family and have no desire to get involved in royal struggles. Without you saying anything, it’s hard for me to imagine your current predicament."

Under Alisa’s surprised gaze, Juno thought for a moment and then spilled everything, showing great trust in Wayne.

"Once, the Heavenly Father’s Court unified the God-chosen Continent, where the Pope reigned above kings and emperors. However, as the power of the Heavenly Father’s Court declined, royal sovereignty gradually returned to the various royal houses, belonging to the royals..."

"The influence of the Heavenly Father’s Court in secular power is still strong, and all countries still show deference on the surface, even Windsor, with its toughest stance, can hardly separate state power from the divine..."

"In the generation of Edward and me, I chose the Heavenly Father’s Court, while Edward chose the Life Alliance. We each represent the political leanings of the Royal Family’s future..."

"The reason I have always excelled is not only because I’m truly better than Edward, but also because mother wants to curry favor with the Heavenly Father’s Court."

"The Heavenly Father’s Court also gave me a lot of support, Celeste being one of them. He didn’t originally practice Holy Light Magic alone, but devoted himself to the Court’s camp after a promise from the Papal State."

"From the perspective of the Royal Family, like mother, I also fear the influence of the Holy See, but from my own standpoint, I don’t reject the Holy See or the faith in the Heavenly Father; that is my contradiction."

Faith is faith, politics is politics; Juno’s faith was anything but pure; she was loyal only to herself, a standard Liberty Mage.

She planned to evolve through the Reincarnated Angel to gain greater power and influence, navigating between the Holy See and royal authority, ensuring both her close relationship with the Holy See to gain more support and preventing the Holy See from taking drastic actions in Windsor.

Juno: Give me some face, I’m one of us, I have Angels above me.

But from the Queen’s perspective, the situation was different. The Princess was too cozy with the Heavenly Father’s Court; if the nation were to fall into her hands, a Pope would inevitably appear above the future Queen.

Balance is the key, and Juno’s actions had deeply disappointed the Queen, who in turn leaned political resources towards Edward.

"By your meaning, has the next King already been determined?" Wayne asked.

"It’s not clear yet, I think I’ve hidden it well; mother shouldn’t know about my evolution. I can only say that I’m currently at a disadvantage. Trying to explain would only create more misunderstandings," Juno sighed with frustration and gave Wayne a blaming look.

Two months was too long; even if a commoner’s daughter disappeared for two months, the mother would be filled with suspicion, let alone a Royal Family.

"I don’t care about these things. Just tell me directly, what did you want to talk about with me?"

"Mother is investigating a lot of things lately, and some secrets relating to the Holy See will be exposed. Celeste has received a mission from the Magic Department and is now not in Lundan; he has been sent to the Republic of Ireland."

Juno described her current dire situation, with the Royal Family being on thin ice, her mistakes leading to suspicion, and her seemingly benign tutor, who in reality was the assistant arranged by the Holy See, the Legendary Mage Celeste, being thrown into the Republic of Ireland.

The Republic of Ireland, nominally under Windsor, was actually controlled by the power of the Heavenly Father’s Court; it was nine out of ten that Celeste would not receive an order to return for his report.

It would normally be of little concern, just a cautionary warning, but it coincided with a war. Queen Sophia had to consider each step carefully, eliminating all potential dangers and risks.

With Juno and Celeste’s disappearance, and the deputy minister in charge of watching over the Pale Nest, Allen, still unaccounted for, from the Queen’s perspective, the Holy See was reaching out to the entire Lundan.

The Pale Nest was an arterial point of the Royal Family, not to be taken lightly; the Holy See was the mastermind, Juno the accomplice.

A traitor emerged from the Royal Family; the Princess had completely turned to the Heavenly Father’s Court!

"It sounds dangerous, but think about it, it seems there’s not much to it. The Heavenly Father’s Court is so powerful, likely capable of reuniting the faith in the God-chosen Continent in the future. The Queen has just grounded you for now and won’t really harm you; perhaps one day when the Holy See is unstoppable, the Queen will have no choice, and you’ll become the new Queen just lying down," Wayne argued logically.

Who the successor to the nation is, not only internal politics but international situations are also crucial, affecting decisions. The Queen, even if unwilling, has to consider various possibilities and won’t easily settle on a successor until the last moment.

Thinking this, he smiled slightly: "There’s a Judy mentioned in the history books who, at the slightest disagreement, banished her own nephew and made herself Emperor. There are many successful cases, so you needn’t worry."

Judy?

Which Emperor is this, and how come I don’t know him?

Juno thought for a moment, confirmed there was no such person, suspected Wayne was spouting nonsense, and then said, "Even so, I’m still at a disadvantage now, and I hope you can give me a hand, take care of those loose ends I left behind, and don’t let the investigative team find any conclusive evidence."

[Ding]

[You have received a new task: Royal Family Infighting]

[Please choose your hero: Queen Sofia, Prince Edward, Princess Juno]

No need to choose, it’s obviously Juno, she’s one of us.

Without thinking, Wayne knew that Juno’s faith was with the Pale Nest; if he didn’t choose Juno, was he supposed to choose Queen Sofia?

Laughable, that is Austin’s old flame, representing the loyalty of the previous generation of the Randao Family.

It was his generation’s turn to prepare for future loyalty.

Edward: So, you’re not even giving me a glance?

"I can give you a hand, that’s easy to say, after all, we share the same father, sisterly and brotherly affection runs deep, if I don’t help you, who will? But..."

"But what?"

Juno was numbed, whenever she heard the Randao father and son say ’but’, nothing good ever followed.

"But, sister, you know me, I don’t do things that don’t profit me. The Randao Family has clearly shown support for the Queen, I won’t defy the command of the head of the family."

As he said this, Wayne looked towards Elizabeth, who was behind Juno.

Your Highness the Princess, my family’s home is quite ample!

"I should remind you, a princess must maintain purity, at least before marriage this is so, it’s the face of the Royal Family, you can’t mess around," Juno emphasized seriously.

The princess of the past generation, who is now Queen Sophia, no matter how far she went with Austin, had assured her purity before marriage.

Juno hoped that Wayne would learn from their father, to maintain the most basic respect for this generation’s princess.

Wayne: (눈‸눈)

Every single one of them is always on guard against gentlemanly behavior, lecturing him in the presence of womenfolk as if his Achilles’ heel really was lust...

Having a public persona that has gained acceptance is a good thing, the acting wasn’t for nothing.

Wayne nodded: "Don’t worry, I only need her for research, won’t do anything strange, I guarantee she’ll be just like new when I return her to you."

What do you mean just like new?

Juno was not satisfied with this answer and continued, "Wayne, as a representative of the Holy See on earth, helping me aligns with your own interests, I’m begging you, don’t mess around."

"Additionally, the princess has recently been grounded, she’s not allowed to go out, and can’t leave with you tonight, you’ll have to wait until the grounding order is lifted."

"Is that so..."

Wayne was slightly disappointed, then turned to look at Alisa, signaling Juno to make some compensation.

"..."x3

"Just kidding, I despise poverty and love wealth, she’s not my type."

Wayne reined himself in: "Hand over the information to me, I’ll help clean your slate, and once it’s done, Princess Elizabeth will accompany me for a month, no problem, right?"

"Deal!"
