Chapter 126 - Emergency meeting
A few days later, strange reports start coming from all around the kingdom.
In one town, the townsfolk refused to attend the mass, and when the priest came to the plaza to call them, everyone booed him and didn’t let him talk.
In another, some townsfolk threw stones at the temple, breaking some stained glass windows.
In another place, some farmers took up arms against the local noble whose abuse had become unbearable, and when the Church tried to intervene in favor of the noble, the farmers took their anger out on the priest, killing him.
Overall, the climate is one of unrest against the abuse of the older nobility and the Church.
"What could be causing it? Has it happened before?"
We are at a meeting in the palace. The king, the queen, the crown prince Jyillian, Lovelace, my Moms, and I.
The mansion is heavily guarded at all times now, and I stored everything that could be used against us by the Church in my pocket dimension. That’s why we can relax a bit with being away from it.
This is a closed meeting, and my mother and Lovelace are using their powers to block anyone from spying here.
Why am I at a meeting like this when I’m just a fifteen-year-old girl and only third in line to the throne?
Well, it turns out that my grandpa trusts me. He knows some of what I’m able to do, including my recently developed Spatial Magic. And he also trusts my judgment, for some reason.
So that’s why he specifically called for my presence in this meeting.
