I'm Divorcing My Tyrant Husband

Chapter 32 - The confrontation between Slaves and Emperors

After a loud commotion, Robelia's visit was held.

"Thank you so much. Yes, yes. Have a good night."

Caleb's face, which smiled and greeted with a gentle and lovely face, changed as soon as the door closed.

There was a man with a face so cold that Robelia had never seen before.

"It's unfortunate. It was a good opportunity...."

He murmured.

"Well, I never thought it would be easy. And he's worth the effort. Enough."

The corners of his lips rose as he muttered to himself.

But it wasn't the sweet, friendly smile he always pretended to be. Rather, it was the face of a man with a snake-like scheme in his heart.

"What opportunity are you talking about?"

A cave-like bass resounded in the silent hallway.

Caleb flinched and looked ahead.

In the long darkness, two ferocious golden eyes appeared, and then a huge man in black came out.

It was a familiar face to Caleb. A familiar yet hateful adversary.

"I see the sun of the empire."

However, while familiarly concealing such intentions, he was polite to the emperor of the empire.

But his face, frozen as hard as Alexander's icy face, did not melt at all.

"I once commented on you as a man who doesn't know your place."

"It's not surprising that my eyes weren't wrong, but you're so arrogant that you don't even think about hiding that black trick."

Even the imperial knights froze to the point of being intimidating, but only 16-year-old Caleb persevered.

He stood there, shaking his legs without falling down or crying ugly.

"You cheeky young slave, it is only because of Empress that you are able to be here now. Yet, you betrayed her pure heart and held a dark heart for her. There will be no excuses."

"Your... your Majesty. Please listen to me."

In front of Alexander's great intimidation, Caleb was trembling with pity. He said with a pathetic face like a puppy in the rain.

"Your Majesty's words are all correct. I'm an ungrateful person, a slave and has a heart for the Empress Dowager. But... But..."

Caleb's brown eyes flashed upwards in an instant.

"But what would your majesty do with such a sacrament?"

"What?"

"Are you going to use my limbs as you said and throw them away as food for monsters? Will you blind me and send me to the land of the barbarians on the frontier?"

Caleb lifted his mouth.

But Alexander knew. It wasn't Caleb's usual submissive smile.

It was a laugh.

"I know what Your Majesty is afraid of. Your Majesty is afraid of ruining your relationship with the Empress. I know that it is a feeling close to the relationship between siblings, but…"

"A arrogance pierces the sky. This is your invisible nature in front of Robelia."

"Therefore, I know that Your Majesty cannot feed me with such arrogance as food for monsters or drive me out of the border. She'll trust the innocent and lovely Caleb more than the hateful husband..."

Caleb then smiled again. It was a really lovely face, with many brown eyelashes stacked on top of each other and puffy cheeks.

"Now, if you were a wise and calculative Majesty, you would have understood what I meant. So now... Can you stop harassing the good and poor young slave Caleb? "

"...."

Alexander looked down at his opponent with cold eyes, and finally the pressure was lifted.

Only then did Caleb take a deep breath. He was bluffing, but in fact, his back and hands were sweating.

"Never appear in front of me again."

Alexander warned in a voice like ice.

"I'm sorry, but that's a bit difficult... If your Majesty continues to approach Her Majesty's the Empress."

"......"

"Then I'll go first. Have a peaceful night, Your Majesty."

After having the courtesy of a slave, Caleb left the place.

'Somehow, I dropped my bluff a little too much. I think it's the first time in my life…..'

But Caleb also had some beliefs.

Robelia and the Magic Master knew that his magic skills were 3rd circle, but in fact, that was a lie.

At the age of 16, Caleb's magic skills reached a whopping 6 circles. No one in history has ever reached this level at the age of a teenager, even self-taught.

'Anyway, even if something unexpected happens, it will be enough to preserve my body.'

Of course, if Alexander, the master swordsman who commands the world, attacks, he will be shattered without delay...

Alexander, conscious of Robelia's gaze, would never try to harm himself directly, but would use his subordinates.

'Because I have enough confidence to protect my body from such an idiot.'

And that he had the magic ability of the 6th circle was a secret that no one but him knew.

Caleb never trusted anyone.

'Well, anyway... Now I have to think about Her Majesty's the Empress. How can I win her heart.....'

Robelia said no because of his age of 16, but Caleb didn't believe it.

He thought it was because he didn't like Robelia yet.

And it also meant that he could capture her heart at any time as long as he was in her eyes.

"What should I do with this....."

Something caught Caleb's eyes as he pondered.

The door to a room was slightly open.

'That's where Queen Aisha lives.'

Robelia didn't want to talk about her relationship, but Caleb knew about the relationship between Robelia and Aisha from the courtiers.

And why is Empress Robelia leaving the Empress Palace and staying at the Queen Palace.

The corners of Caleb's lips rose slowly. It was the same smile as the one who had the secret trick in his heart.

*********

"You don't know? What do you mean, you don't know?"

Aisha's voice rose sharply. Embarrassed, the servant said to her, her bewildered.

"But it's true. Before the marriage, the Empress did always live in the duke's estate, and after marriage, she only worked at the palace, so she didn't do any outside activities..."

"It can't be! Isn't it because you were incompetent and lazy and didn't do your research properly?"

"I really am! I did my best to research, but I couldn't find any contact points anywhere."

Aisha bit her lip. Her little fist on her ŀȧp trembled in her anger.

After the salon, Aisha decided that Robelia would have a contact with another world, and investigated her activities in every way.

There must be a reason for Robelia to know information about the Republic of Korea, which is a different world, so I believed that there was something suspicious somewhere when investigating her activities.

'There can be no Whether it's a book or a person, there must be a place where Robelia found out about it. Where the hell is it?'

Surprisingly, however, there was nothing suspicious about her actions.

Her life so far has been like a railroad. She's so straight-forward, she doesn't deviate a single inch from her, just living the way her parents had given her, and after her marriage she did what she had to do as a virtuous empress.

Until a few months ago, her personality suddenly became weird.

'Information from another world is a public good, so monopolizing information from another world that has not been made public is a felony. I mean, there's no way that it's not going to leave any traces of such a dangerous act.'

Aisha, nervously rummaging through the servant's report, eventually swept it away with both arms.

"Stupid and useless! Robelia's servants and maids are all capable, so why do I only have these stupid kids?"

The servant, who had been crouching in fear, changed his complexion at those words. he found his first opportunity to prove his abilities while he was repeatedly criticized for being incompetent.

"Ah, that part. I heard strange rumors while researching the Empress."

"What rumors?"

"The rumor is that all the servants and maids that the Empress has brought in, famous for their ability, are all slaves."

"What? Slaves? Are there slaves in the Empire?"

Aisha was startled at first, but looking back, it seemed like she had learned something before. These days, she was forced to study the Empire's society, culture, and business.

"Where did the rumor come from? Are you sure?"

"That's... the testimony I heard from a shop owner in La Mancha, the only gray market in the capital. It is said that the Empress personally came with many guards. This is a report investigating the Empress's actions."

When the servant handed out a bundle of reports, Aisha hurriedly accepted it.

"Isn't La Mancha a place women can never go? Why did Robelia go there?"

"I'm not sure, but it is said that the Empress did some shopping there, attended an auction, and bought all the slaves that were put up for auction."

"There was such a great thing, how come there hasn't been a single rumor so far?"

"That's... The very next day, people in black came and silenced all the shopkeepers and employees on La Mancha Street. Since it was not reported in any newspaper, it is likely that the press did something similar."

At the servant's words, Aisha had a blank face as if she was at a loss for words for a moment.

She flopped down on the chair.

"Robelia? Or Alexander? One of the two is clear."

Aisha started biting her nails.

"I can't believe she going to such a dirty and disgraceful place as an empress.... this should have been rumored."
