Chapter 156
"Thus, we, 282 princes and servants of the Supreme God, according to the covenant we have long maintained, pledge our loyalty to Liv Gracia, the rightful heir of the Gracia family!"
Before the main coronation ceremony, Maya Arendt, who had climbed onto the platform, shouted those words. Originally, this was supposed to be done by the most powerful among the nobles, but now that the Lartman ducal family had become the subject of the coronation ceremony, that role had passed to Marquis Arendt. At the same time, it was proof that Maya Arendt was close to the Emperor, so she was satisfied with her role.
Now it was Liv Gracia’s turn to appear. Everyone’s gaze turned towards the door. They were all curious about what face the woman who had become the new Emperor would have.
However, Liv Gracia did not come out.
"Ahem, we will enthrone Liv Gracia as the Emperor!"
Maya Arendt shouted again, watching for reactions, but Liv Gracia still did not appear.
"What’s this?"
"Has some problem occurred?"
"Did someone use trickery?"
"Surely there isn’t another issue with the imperial throne?"
The nobles began to stir. How could the protagonist not appear at her own coronation ceremony? They were suspecting if there was another problem with the imperial throne. Like whether forces opposing Gracia’s ascension had harmed her or something like that.
Just as even Maya Arendt was at a loss and flustered, the huge doors opened. And finally, the protagonist of the coronation ceremony revealed herself.
