Chapter 911 - 471: Jalen at the End of His Rope
Ivita raised his eyebrows, realizing Enola’s identity.
He had no interest in the claims to the Oriental Empire, as Enola’s parents had long sold the title to kings of various countries in exchange for living materials to maintain their relatively affluent lifestyle, which had rendered the title oversaturated.
Secondly, the dynastic lineage of the Oriental Empire was complex, unlike the intimate ties with the Western European royalty; theirs included those truly from humble civilians, slaves, and families of warlords from political upheavals, which meant their bloodline wasn’t valued as highly.
As for the claims to the rights of the Oriental Empire?
It was unimportant, at least to Ivita during this period, in this world; after all, who could confront the Rome Sear Empire, which was about to establish universal laws?
Moreover, a person can only concentrate on one task to complete it effectively; if he grasped greedily at the crowns of the Oriental Empire, it would only unite his enemies and the heretics, complicating the matter.
Ivita knew he now held a slight upper hand and needed to be more cautious at this moment.
To directly refuse would easily offend, although the other party was just an unarmed woman, but her identity alone was enough to barter for some benefits.
Ivita rarely offended people, so he tactfully said to Princess Enola, "Could it be, were you born beneath the purple robes? I am quite interested in the Purple Robe Inheritance Law of the Oriental Empire, which I’ve heard is extremely complex, enough to cause the finest legal scholars to debate vehemently."
