Chapter 331

"People of the Frotschter Empire!" — A prominent spokesman commenced the announcement, settling the silence in every citizen attending the Grand Day of the Festival. — "The wait has come to its end!"
Tension was felt in the skin of the expecting people, and the admirable pause given for their souls to prepare continued with the introduction of the Monarch, whose privilege was to present the most celebrated one.
"His Excellency, the Emperor ruling over the vast Empire a strong First gave birth to in a conquering adventure... His Majesty, Francois Maurice Di Frotschter!"
"Tsk!... D*mned be the man! My second name shouldn’t be told!" — Still at the back of the stage, the Emperor groaned, annoyed at the spokesman.
"Welcome the Ruler of the prosperous Frotschter Empire!"
Nonetheless, his anger was quickly concealed. Giving a glance to the Crown Prince that mocked him with a condescending eye, however forgiving him with a silent order.
"Child, you stay here. I am who announces the Ninth." — Releasing her hand, a scheme he had planned thoughtful of his son was initiated even when undeserved because of his malicious actions against his father.
Overdone, he walked up the few remaining stairs, standing proud and victorious in front of the people cheering his presence; with slightly open arms to receive the praise, slowly lowering them to shut the people as he was now to speak... while the son came to stand next to the anxious woman, swiftly taking her hand so it would wrap around his arm, showing her she was not to come out on her own as the glared order of the Emperor allowed.
"I am to escort you, My Lady."
