00:00:19He doesn't have that kind of bad smell, but he smells bitter.
00:00:25This is an affront to the Emperor. Such disrespect must not be tolerated.
00:00:30Hmph. An ill-mannered woman with no sense of propriety at all.
00:00:36I can smell the malice in you. You're a bad person.
00:00:41My court is not a place for the church to meddle.
00:00:47What have you done? How dare you look the Emperor in the eye and talk back to the Grand Bishop!
00:01:03Bitter Sandalwood. Even stronger than it was in the Ceremony Hall.
00:01:19Eat something sweet. It'll make the bitterness fade.
00:01:22The last person who gave me sweets attempted to poison me. What is your intention? What are you trying to
00:01:27do to me?
00:01:29Your Majesty is wise. This girl must want to poison you.
00:01:38When you speak to His Majesty, your stench gets even stronger. You're the one who wants to hurt him.
00:01:51I just want to make the bitterness go away.
00:01:56Get out.
00:01:59Say one more word, and I'll strip you of your title.
00:02:14You can smell everyone.
00:02:17Good people smell sweet. Bad people smell rotten. You're the only one who's bitter.
00:02:25Your Majesty.
00:02:28His stench is the strongest. He's the most evil person.
00:02:32This woman is possessed by a demon.
00:02:35She has the power of a witch.
00:02:37She must be executed immediately, or she will bring disaster upon the Empire.
00:02:46Brother, for the sake of the Empire, we cannot let her live.
00:02:50She's mine. Who dares to lay hands on her?
00:02:53From this day on, Elena will live in the palace.
00:02:56She is hereby granted the title of Noble Lady of the Empire.
00:03:00Anyone who speaks against her will be charged with treason.
00:03:15The water smells like rot.
00:03:17Clara must have sent someone to poison it.
00:03:29Clara?
00:03:31I saved a piece for you. Eat it. The bitterness might fade.
00:03:40From now on, I'll have someone oversee your meals. No one will dare harm you.
00:03:44Soldiers, come in.
00:03:48Clara attempted murder.
00:03:50Can confiscate all her property, strip her of her title, and reduce her to common status.
00:03:54By your Majesty's command.
00:04:01That bitch, Elena! Just some country girl! Why is the Emperor still protecting her like she's a princess?
00:04:05Go to the church immediately. Contact Grand Bishop Valerius.
00:04:08Helen, I have urgent matters to discuss. We need to get rid of Elena once and for all.
00:04:11Yes, my lady. I'll leave it once.
00:04:17Next month, the church will hold a prayer banquet. All the commoners of the Empire will be there.
00:04:22I will expose Elena's new estate in front of everyone. Let all the people scorn her.
00:04:26Then, using the public's rage, he will have no choice but to execute this girl.
00:04:30As long as we can get rid of Elena, my Rasa family will do everything we can to support the
00:04:34church.
00:04:35Let's work together, put Leo on the throne, and make Kale disappear for good.
00:04:38Pleasure doing business. At the banquet, all you need to do is follow my lead.
00:04:45This place has a strong smell of sulfur and mold mixed together.
00:04:49They're plotting to hurt me, and they want to take your throne.
00:04:56Be quiet. Someone's outside.
00:05:06I must have heard it wrong. But from now on, we must be more careful.
00:05:09Kale cannot know any of this.
00:05:26Help me smell them out. Which ones have that stench?
00:05:30Who belongs to the church?
00:05:32Summon them. The nobles. One by one.
00:05:36One by one.
00:05:47He smells like sulfur. He's with the Grand Bishop.
00:05:54Him too. They're in it together.
00:05:58And him.
00:06:00The sulfur smell is strong.
00:06:02Your Majesty, it's a lie. I have never conspired with the church.
00:06:05This witch is framing me.
00:06:07I'm innocent too, Your Majesty. Please see the truth.
00:06:09She's a witch. She uses dark magic. Her words cannot be trusted.
00:06:14Seize them. Throw them in the dungeons. Search their homes immediately.
00:06:17I'm innocent. I'm innocent. I'm innocent.
00:06:23Grand Bishop, please save our master. He was framed by Elena.
00:06:26His Majesty has thrown him into the dungeon.
00:06:29Please help us. We'll give you everything.
00:06:30We'll do anything. Just save our master.
00:06:32A pack of useless fools can't even handle a little girl, and you expect me to save you?
00:06:37Gather the evidence of these three families colluding with the church.
00:06:40Deliver it quietly to the Imperial Bembert Bedtramer.
00:06:42To Kale.
00:06:43Yes, Grand Bishop.
00:06:44Sacrificing the pawns to save the king. That's just how it works.
00:06:48They can only blame themselves for this.
00:06:55This hypocrite.
00:06:56He thinks sacrificing a few pawns will save him.
00:07:00His stench won't go away just because he sacrificed some of his pawns.
00:07:04Brother, I have urgent matters to report.
00:07:06This is a petition from the capitals of Minfra Mature.
00:07:09Commandees are pleading with you.
00:07:10Expel the witch Elena from the palace and restore justice to the church.
00:07:19Did Valerius tell you to bring this?
00:07:26The smell of rust on you is even stronger now.
00:07:29You have blood on your hands.
00:07:34If they want to play games at the prayer ceremony,
00:07:37then let's join them.
00:07:42Smell.
00:07:43I smell like rose.
00:07:44The church people will carry a sulfur smell.
00:07:46They can't hide it no matter how they try.
00:07:55Your bitter sandalwood is getting lighter.
00:07:58It even has some of mine rose scent now.
00:08:01Your Majesty.
00:08:02Bad news.
00:08:03The Rossa family has mobilized their private army.
00:08:06They've surrounded my manor.
00:08:07They say I failed to teach my daughter properly,
00:08:09that I raised a witch.
00:08:10They're demanding I hand Elena over to them.
00:08:12Issue my decree immediately.
00:08:14Mobilize the royal army.
00:08:15Fully armed.
00:08:16Surround the Rossa manor.
00:08:17If they lay one finger on Minister Hugh,
00:08:19I will wipe out the entire Rossa family.
00:08:27By His Majesty's command, disperse the private army.
00:08:30Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy.
00:08:33My lady, this is bad.
00:08:35The royal army has arrived.
00:08:36All of our soldiers are under their control.
00:08:38The manor is surrounded.
00:08:40How could this happen?
00:08:41I can't believe Kale is using the royal army against us all for that girl.
00:08:46Go.
00:08:47Go to the church now.
00:08:48Find Grand Bishop Valerius.
00:08:50Tell him what's happening to me.
00:08:51He needs to save me right away.
00:09:02Grand Bishop, save me.
00:09:03Kale has mobilized the royal army.
00:09:04They've surrounded the Rossa manor.
00:09:05I have nowhere to go.
00:09:10What's there to panic about?
00:09:12The prayer banquet will be Elena's end.
00:09:13I've already made all the arrangements.
00:09:15This is a holy relic of the church.
00:09:17And inside it is a trigger array of sacred light.
00:09:19What?
00:09:20As soon as Elena puts it on and steps into the prayer hall, the sacred light will burn.
00:09:23That pendant, it smells rotten.
00:09:25There's something inside it, something just for me.
00:09:27She is nothing but an evil witch.
00:09:30What do I need to do?
00:09:31At the banquet, pretend to give her a blessing gift.
00:09:33Put this pendant around her neck yourself.
00:09:35Leave the rest to me.
00:09:36I understand.
00:09:37At the banquet, I'll make sure Elena puts on this pendant herself.
00:09:41Remember, make it convincing.
00:09:42No one must see through it, especially Kale.
00:09:57Elena, I was wrong before.
00:09:59I shouldn't have called you a witch.
00:10:00This is my apology gift to you.
00:10:03Please, put it on.
00:10:12This is sulfur powder.
00:10:13He called this a holy relic, but he was really going to use it to harm me.
00:10:17He is the one possessed by a demon.
00:10:19She is slandering the church.
00:10:21She is a witch.
00:10:23Seize her immediately.
00:10:31Anyone who dares to touch her dies.
00:10:51Your majesty, this woman used dark magic to fabricate the sulfur powder and maliciously
00:10:56slander the church.
00:10:57I swear on my life.
00:10:58I beg you to judge this fairly.
00:11:01Brother.
00:11:03The church represents the divine.
00:11:04It cannot be slandered by a witch.
00:11:06Execute Elena now.
00:11:07Restore the church's honor.
00:11:13The sulfur smell on you is exactly the same as the powder on the ground.
00:11:16And there's more sulfur powder hidden in your prayer robe.
00:11:19If you don't believe me, search him right now.
00:11:24Search him.
00:11:35The church is a fraud.
00:11:36The Grand Bishop is evil.
00:11:38He's the one possessed by a demon.
00:11:47This is a setup.
00:11:48They're framing me.
00:11:50Those aren't mine.
00:11:52Leo, take your men and seize them.
00:11:54Take this witch and this treasonous emperor now.
00:12:10She's in it, too.
00:12:12The pendant scheme.
00:12:13The plan for the prayer hall.
00:12:14She knows everything.
00:12:40Your majesty, I've brought the reinforcement with me.
00:12:43Forgive my delay.
00:12:48Your majesty, I was wrong.
00:12:50I'm so sorry.
00:12:51Valerius forced me to do it.
00:12:52Everything was a problem.
00:12:53I have no idea.
00:12:54You traitor.
00:12:55You dare betray me.
00:12:59That smell of mold and decay on you, it doesn't go away just because you kneel and beg.
00:13:05You've sent to poison me in my chamber.
00:13:07Did you think I'd forgotten?
00:13:09Pass my word.
00:13:11Valerius and Leo are to be thrown into the dungeons.
00:13:13With extra guards.
00:13:15Clara is to be confined to the Rossa Manor.
00:13:18She is not to step one foot outside without my permission.
00:13:21When all crimes have been investigated, she will face judgment.
00:13:27Long live his majesty!
00:13:29For him, the priests of the church have been brought to judgment!
00:13:38His bitter sandalwood, the rose scent mixed into it, is growing stronger.
00:13:52Your majesty, I have uncovered all of Valerius' crimes.
00:13:58Not only did he conspire with the Rossa family in treason, he has also been secretly communicating with the neighboring
00:14:02kingdom.
00:14:03He intends to use their forces to overthrow your rule and place Leo on the throne.
00:14:06The neighboring kingdom has agreed.
00:14:08If they succeed, they will sedate three cities to the church.
00:14:11No wonder the selfish smell on him was so strong.
00:14:13He wasn't just trying to harm you.
00:14:14He was willing to sell out the entire empire.
00:14:20Conspying with a foreign kingdom to commit treason.
00:14:22This should be the end of him.
00:14:25Your majesty, urgent news from the dungeons.
00:14:27Valerius produced a special decree from the church.
00:14:29He bribed the guards and escaped through a secret tunnel.
00:14:32Leo also took advantage of the chaos to break free.
00:14:34He's gone into hiding.
00:14:35We haven't been able to locate him yet.
00:14:40Your majesty, this is my fault.
00:14:42I let them escape.
00:14:43I am ready to accept any punishments.
00:14:50Grand Bishop Valerius conspired with the Rossa family and the puppet prince Leo to commit treason.
00:14:54He colluded with a foreign kingdom, offering three of our cities in exchange for their forces to overthrow my rule.
00:15:00Such treason is unforgivable.
00:15:01Issue an empire-wide warrant for Valerius and Leo.
00:15:04Whoever has their clues will be generously rewarded.
00:15:07Anyone who harbors them will be charged with treason.
00:15:09Mobilize all border troops immediately.
00:15:11Be on high alert against invasion.
00:15:13If you notice anyone around you carrying the smell of sulfur, they are remnants of the church.
00:15:17If you smell rust, they are spies from the neighboring kingdom.
00:15:21Report them immediately.
00:15:22Do not let them get away.
00:15:23Yes, Lord.
00:15:31Your majesty, urgent news from the border.
00:15:33The neighboring kingdom's army has crossed our frontier.
00:15:36They've captured the border city of water.
00:15:37They're declaring that they will rescue Valerius and put Leo on the throne.
00:15:42I will lead the army myself.
00:15:44Take the imperial guards to the border.
00:15:46Elena will come with me.
00:15:47Hugh, you will remain in the capital to oversee the court.
00:15:50Yes, your majesty.
00:15:52Control any remaining church elements and prevent any unrest within the city.
00:15:55I will not fail your trust.
00:15:58I will protect the capital with my life.
00:16:00We bid his majesty farewell.
00:16:02May his majesty return victorious.
00:16:13Your majesty, we have been expecting you.
00:16:23You have a faint smell of sulfur mixed with the smell of rust.
00:16:26You're a church man and a spy.
00:16:32Anyone who conspires with the church or betrays the empire dies.
00:16:39He smells like sulfur.
00:16:40He's a spy.
00:16:49The neighboring army just took that small city.
00:16:51They'll definitely march through here.
00:16:53We can set an ambush in this valley.
00:16:58I believe in you.
00:16:59You will win.
00:17:02The bitter sandalwood.
00:17:03It's completely covered by my rozo scent.
00:17:06Now.
00:17:33Kale is losing his power.
00:17:34His army can't hold much longer.
00:17:37Whoever kills Kale, the church will name him a holy knight and reward him with 10,000 gold pieces.
00:17:43To arms!
00:17:48Kale.
00:17:49Their supply camp.
00:17:50Something's wrong with it.
00:17:51The guards smell faintly of sulfur.
00:17:53Their church remnants.
00:17:54Burn the supplies and the army will fall apart on its own.
00:18:02Take your sword squad circle round to the side of the battlefield.
00:18:05Hit their supply camp.
00:18:06Burn it to the ground.
00:18:16That's not.
00:18:21Don't let him escape!
00:18:22painful.ััะฒ!
00:18:34Don't
00:18:35let him escape!
00:18:36He's the one behind everything
00:19:07We surrender
00:19:31Your majesty
00:19:33I confess my crimes
00:19:35Please spare my life
00:19:36I will never dare to commit treason again
00:19:38Brother
00:19:39I was deceived by Valerius
00:19:41It was a moment of foolishness
00:19:42Please
00:19:43For the sake of our brotherhood
00:19:44Forgive me just this once
00:19:47Your majesty
00:19:47I was wrong
00:19:48It's Valerius and Leo
00:19:49Forced me to do this
00:19:50I was just used by them
00:19:52I never did anything on my own
00:19:53Please spare me
00:19:55You think if you push all the blame onto them
00:19:57You'll get to live
00:19:58The Rossa family's secret weapon stockpiles
00:20:00Their collusion with the church
00:20:02Their funding of Valerius' rebellion
00:20:03We have every piece of evidence
00:20:05It's ironclade
00:20:07Clara, you coward
00:20:09The Rossa family was in on the rebellion from the start
00:20:11You think you can escape this?
00:20:13Valerius
00:20:14Collusion with a foreign kingdom
00:20:15Committed treason
00:20:16Sentenced to be burned at the stake
00:20:18Execution in three days
00:20:21Leo aiding evil
00:20:22Coveting the throne
00:20:23Betraying his country
00:20:24Stripped of his title as prince
00:20:25All ranks and privileges revoked
00:20:27Exiled to the frozen wastelands of the border
00:20:29The Rossa family
00:20:30Secret weapons
00:20:31Collusion with the church
00:20:33Participation in rebellion
00:20:34Sentenced to death
00:20:35Clara
00:20:35As one of the masterminds
00:20:36Her crime is unforgivable
00:20:37She is to be executed
00:20:50Hypocritical demon
00:20:50How many people have you killed?
00:21:05Curse you, Kale
00:21:07You will die in the most painful way
00:21:09And Elena
00:21:10You witch
00:21:11Will never find peace
00:21:13In this life
00:21:14Or the next
00:21:15I am the bishop
00:21:16I am the emissary of God
00:21:18You have no authority to punish me
00:21:20May you rot in hell for all eternity
00:21:22Curse you, Kale
00:21:24Curse you
00:21:38I have summoned you all today
00:21:39To announce one matter
00:21:41I am naming Elena
00:21:42As empress of the empire
00:21:44For the rest of my life
00:21:45She will be my only one
00:21:46Yes, my lord
00:21:47Your majesty
00:21:48You must not
00:21:49According to the ancestral tradition
00:21:50The queen must come from a noble family
00:21:52Elena is of low birth
00:21:53And is unworthy to be queen
00:21:54Sir
00:21:54You carry no foul smell
00:21:56You truly care for the empire
00:21:58But tradition is rigid
00:21:59But we are living human beings
00:22:01His majesty's will
00:22:03Should be the standard of right or wrong
00:22:06This is my empire
00:22:08I make the rules
00:22:09If anyone dares to advise against this again
00:22:11You will be stripped of your rank
00:22:13And reduced to commoner status
00:22:15Yes, my lord
00:22:16Then this is settled
00:22:19Prepare the empress's coronation ceremony in three days
00:22:21All of you
00:22:22Return to your duties
00:22:24Becoming his empress is not the end
00:22:25It is the beginning of us guarding the empire together
00:22:28Are you really going to make me queen
00:22:30Regardless of what others think?
00:22:33From the day I met you
00:22:34My heart is yours
00:22:35What do I care about tradition?
00:22:36I will be a worthy empress
00:22:38Together with you
00:22:39I will protect this empire
00:22:41With you here
00:22:41I am so happy and assured
00:22:44Your majesty
00:22:45Urgent news from the border
00:22:46Leo, the exiled one
00:22:47Has allied with the Berians
00:22:49They've captured two small border cities
00:22:50He's declared he will smorter the capital
00:22:52That bastard!
00:22:53He dares to come back!
00:22:55I'm going with you
00:22:56This time we finish him for good
00:23:02I keep thinking
00:23:03If everyone going to judge me because my ability
00:23:06What if people keep calling me a witch?
00:23:08Your ability is the greatest gift heaven has given me
00:23:10You let me see hypocrites in this kingdom
00:23:12Help me hold on to the throne
00:23:14And you
00:23:15You made me taste sweetness
00:23:17You're not an outcast
00:23:19You're my light
00:23:19Then you must come back safely
00:23:21I'll be waiting for you to crown me
00:23:24Don't worry
00:23:25I never break a promise to you
00:23:27Once I've dealt with the barbarians
00:23:28I'll come back
00:23:29And place the empress's crown on your head
00:23:37Kale
00:23:37You must come back safely
00:23:40I'll be in the capital
00:23:41Waiting for you
00:23:46The barbarians are fierce
00:23:47But they lack supplies
00:23:49Leo has only just allied with them
00:23:50They won't have stable morale yet
00:23:52This is our opportunity
00:23:54Your majesty speaks truly
00:23:56The barbarians have come a long way
00:23:58Their supplies are already stretched thin
00:24:01Cut off their provisions
00:24:03And victory will come without a fight
00:24:07Follow my command
00:24:08I will lead the army myself
00:24:10Take the imperial guard to the border
00:24:12Q
00:24:12You will remain in the capital
00:24:14Assist Elena in stabilizing the court
00:24:15And guard events any remaining church elements causing trouble
00:24:18I obey
00:24:19I will protect the capital
00:24:21And await your majesty's triumphant return
00:24:23All of you
00:24:24Tend to your duties
00:24:24Prepare provisions
00:24:25Mobilize the troops
00:24:26Three days later we will be at war
00:24:28Yes my lord
00:24:32The barbarians must pass through this valley to reach the capital
00:24:34The terrain is narrow
00:24:36Easy to defend
00:24:37Hard to attack
00:24:37Their supplies are running out
00:24:39So they'll be in a hurry to push through
00:24:40We can set an ambush here
00:24:41And send elite troops to cut off their supplies
00:24:43We'll catch them all
00:24:45Your highness's strategy is brilliant
00:24:46This valley is a choke point
00:24:48Ambushing them here will be a heavy strike to the barbarians
00:24:51Your highness is wise
00:24:52My darling
00:24:52As clever as always
00:24:54We'll do exactly as you say
00:24:56Dispatch 5,000 elite troops
00:24:58Circle behind the barbarians
00:24:59And burn their supply camp to the ground
00:25:01Remember
00:25:02Do not alert them
00:25:03Yes my lord
00:25:04I will not fail your majesty's trust
00:25:08The rest of the army
00:25:09Will come with me
00:25:10To set the ambush in the valley
00:25:11This time
00:25:12We will wipe out Leo for good
00:25:14No more loose ends
00:25:15Yes my lord
00:25:22The barbarians invade
00:25:23And Leo rebels
00:25:24Today we will crush this rebellion
00:25:25And protect our people
00:25:26Soldiers
00:25:26Do you have faith?
00:25:28Yes
00:25:28We follow your majesty to the death
00:25:29Protect our empire
00:25:30Wait for me
00:25:34I'll wait for you
00:25:44Do not worry
00:25:45His majesty will surely put down the rebellion
00:25:47We will protect the capital
00:25:49And wait for his return
00:25:49Yes
00:25:50We protect the capital
00:25:52So his majesty has nothing to worry
00:25:59Your majesty
00:26:00The barbarian soldiers are approaching the valley entrance
00:26:02It looks like they're going in
00:26:04Follow the plan
00:26:05Wait until they are all inside the valley
00:26:06Then release the arrows
00:26:07Yes your majesty
00:26:13Loose
00:26:18It's an ambush retreat
00:26:19Retreat now
00:26:26No
00:26:46Kael
00:26:46Leo your time has come
00:26:48Even if I die, I'm taking you with me!
00:27:07Kale, what makes you worthy of being emperor?
00:27:09I was the one meant for it.
00:27:10You stole everything from me!
00:27:12You allied with barbarians and rebelled.
00:27:14You burned, killed and plundered.
00:27:16You butchered my people.
00:27:17You are not fit to be a prince of this empire,
00:27:19and you are not fit to live in this world.
00:27:23Any who lay down their weapons and surrender will be spared death.
00:27:26They will be incorporated into the imperial army and stationed at the border.
00:27:29Any who resist, slaughter them without mercy.
00:27:32We thank your majesty for sparing our lives.
00:27:42Why are you here?
00:27:44I can't wait any longer. It's finally over.
00:27:46I'm glad you're safe.
00:27:48I kept my promise to you.
00:27:50Now I'm taking you home.
00:27:55Kale, let's go home.
00:27:56From now on, there will be no more war.
00:28:00Together, we will guard our empire.
00:28:10What's wrong?
00:28:12Just a bit dizzy.
00:28:14It's nothing.
00:28:15Probably I'm just too tired recently.
00:28:20Send the doctor, quickly!
00:28:24Your majesty, her highness is not seriously ill.
00:28:27It is only exhaustion from the journey.
00:28:29With emotional strain, she is just too tired and weak.
00:28:31With proper rest and nutrition, she will recover.
00:28:34That's good.
00:28:36Send my words.
00:28:37Slow the march.
00:28:38We'll rest at the relay station today.
00:28:40Tomorrow, we march.
00:28:42By your majesty's command.
00:28:47I'm sorry you had to go through this.
00:28:50As long as I'm with you, I'm happy.
00:29:04Did you make this yourself?
00:29:08You're weak right now.
00:29:09You need to eat more.
00:29:11The king does not need to feed me personally.
00:29:13I can eat by myself.
00:29:16For you, I would do anything.
00:29:20I want so badly we to return to the capital, to be your empress.
00:29:24And I want so badly to have a child.
00:29:26Our child.
00:29:28Soon.
00:29:29Very soon.
00:29:30I will give you a grand coronation.
00:29:32I will give you and our child a safe home.
00:29:34A prosperous empire.
00:29:35I believe in you.
00:29:41Elena.
00:29:42I will spend my entire life protecting you.
00:29:45Protecting our empire.
00:29:46I will never let you suffer again.
00:29:59Be careful.
00:30:00I smell death and a faint smell of sulfur.
00:30:02The church's men are here.
00:30:08Everyone stay in guard.
00:30:09They're assassins.
00:30:16Left side.
00:30:17There's one.
00:30:17Right side, two.
00:30:30You're digging your own grave.
00:30:38Kale.
00:30:38These assassins.
00:30:39Besides the sulfur smell, there's a faint smell of rust.
00:30:42They're from the neighboring kingdom.
00:30:44Your majesty, empress, I have come to rescue you.
00:31:01Just as I imagined, they've allied with the church remnants.
00:31:04They want to assassinate me.
00:31:07He dares to ally with church remnants and attempt to assassinate my empress.
00:31:11I will tear him to pieces and burn his kingdom to the ground.
00:31:15Your majesty, empress, I'm so sorry for my delay.
00:31:18Bring the assassins' bodies back to the capital.
00:31:20Investigate about the collusion between the church remnants and the neighboring kingdom.
00:31:23I will make them pay.
00:31:24Yes, my lord.
00:31:31Don't be afraid.
00:31:32I'm here.
00:31:33No one will harm you.
00:31:34I'm not afraid.
00:31:35With you here, I fear nothing.
00:32:08According to the evidence we have gathered, the king of the neighboring kingdom is a distant
00:32:12relative of Valerius.
00:32:14He always wanted to use the church's power to annex our empire.
00:32:16This assassination attempt was his idea.
00:32:18They were already in secret collusion before Valerius even died.
00:32:21Your majesty, the king of the neighboring kingdom is insatiably greedy.
00:32:25He has repeatedly provoked our empire.
00:32:26This time, he has gone so far as to conspire with church remnants to assassinate the empress.
00:32:32We cannot tolerate this any longer.
00:32:35We beg your majesty to lead the army.
00:32:37Burn the neighboring kingdom to the ground.
00:32:39The king of the neighboring kingdom goes too far.
00:32:41Does he think we are this weak?
00:32:43Send my words.
00:32:43Prepare preparations.
00:32:44Mobilize the troops.
00:32:46Three days later, I will lead the army myself.
00:32:48We will burn their kingdom to the ground.
00:32:50Let them learn the price.
00:32:51Yes, my lord.
00:32:52This time, I'm going with you.
00:32:53We will crush the neighboring kingdom schemes together.
00:32:55I want them to know I am not just your empress.
00:32:58I am someone who can stand beside you and fight.
00:33:00All right.
00:33:01I'll take you with me.
00:33:02Let the entire continent witness the might of my empire.
00:33:07The neighboring kingdom.
00:33:09The church remnants.
00:33:10All those who wish to harm us, who wish to swallow our empire, we will root them out one by
00:33:13one.
00:33:14This time, they will pay a heavy price.
00:33:19The king of the neighboring kingdom conspired with church remnants to assassinate my empress.
00:33:22He has repeatedly provoked our empire.
00:33:24Today is the day we fight.
00:33:26We will burn the neighboring kingdom, protect our empire's borders, and proclaim our empire's might.
00:33:31Soldiers, do you have faith?
00:33:33Yes.
00:33:34We follow your majesty to the death.
00:33:36Raid the neighboring kingdom.
00:33:37Reclame our empire's might.
00:33:41During my campaign, you will act in my stand.
00:33:44Oversee the court, manage the affairs of state.
00:33:46This scepter represents my will.
00:33:48Everyone must obey your commands.
00:33:50Your majesty, I will protect the empire with all my heart.
00:33:53I await your majesty's triumphant return.
00:33:58Wait for me to return.
00:34:00To crown you as my one and only empress.
00:34:11Forward!
00:34:16Issue my order immediately.
00:34:18Gather all our grains and send them to the border.
00:34:20Ensure the soldiers at the front have ample supplies.
00:34:22At the same time, find out and eliminate all remaining church elements.
00:34:26Guard against any unrest they might cause in the capital.
00:34:29I obey.
00:34:30I will attend to it immediately.
00:34:32Your highness, a woman acting in the emperor's stat is unprecedented.
00:34:36It may invite criticism.
00:34:38Perhaps it would be better for us to handle everything while your highness can just rest.
00:34:41The imperial scepter is here.
00:34:43It represents his majesty's will.
00:34:45He trusts me and has placed the empire in my hands.
00:34:47I am fully capable of protecting it.
00:34:50Anyone who dares to speak against this will be charged with treason.
00:34:52All of you, tend to your duties, keep to your own bounds.
00:34:55If anyone dares to engage in corruption or collude with foreign enemies, I will show no mercy.
00:35:00We obey your command.
00:35:01We follow your highness to the death.
00:35:03We will protect the empire.
00:35:04Kale, I will protect our empire.
00:35:06When you return, I will show you a stable, prosperous empire and an empress worthy of you.
00:35:12A mighty empire like this would be governed by a woman?
00:35:15That's absurd.
00:35:17With Kale gone, your empire is nothing but a pile of loose and...
00:35:20How dare you?
00:35:21The affairs of my empire are none of your business.
00:35:23Let me guess, you have something else to discuss.
00:35:25My king is merciful.
00:35:26He does not wish to meet the empire on the battlefield.
00:35:28He has sent me here to sue for peace.
00:35:30All you need to do is hand over Elena, sile 10 cities, and my king will withdraw his troops
00:35:34and coexist peacefully with your empire.
00:35:36Enough.
00:35:38So now you want peace?
00:35:39You conspired with church remnants to assassinate me.
00:35:41You invaded my empire's borders.
00:35:43And now you come to talk about peace?
00:35:44That's ridiculous.
00:35:50Peace?
00:35:50Fine.
00:35:51First, hand over the ones who tried to assassinate me.
00:35:54Second, side 15 cities.
00:35:55Third, bow down to my empire.
00:35:56Otherwise, Kale will rav your kingdom to the drowned.
00:35:58It's only a matter of time.
00:35:59How dare you?
00:36:00My king will never let you get away with this.
00:36:05What makes you think I wouldn't do that?
00:36:07Go back and tell your king.
00:36:09Surrender, or wait to be defeated.
00:36:11Now get out.
00:36:15Elena, you witch!
00:36:16My king will burn your empire to the ground!
00:36:18He will kill you!
00:36:22He will certainly not surrender and send more troops to the border.
00:36:25We must prepare in advance.
00:36:28Send 30,000 imperial guards to garrison the border hamlets.
00:36:31At the same time, send envoys to the nearby realms, forge alliances, and surround him.
00:36:36Your highness's strategy is brilliant.
00:36:38The surrounding kingdoms have long been dissatisfied with the neighboring kingdom's expansion.
00:36:43They will surely ally with us.
00:36:45Your highness is wise.
00:36:47We obey your command.
00:36:48All of you, tend to your duties.
00:36:51Take action immediately.
00:36:52Ensure that everything is prepared before his majesty reaches the border.
00:36:56Coordinate with him from within and without, and raven the neighboring kingdom to the ground.
00:37:00We obey your command.
00:37:01Kale, I'll plane everything ahead for you.
00:37:04Wait for me to return.
00:37:05Together, we will rave the neighboring kingdom and usher in an age of prosperity that belongs to us.
00:37:11Your highness!
00:37:12A confidential letter has arrived from the border.
00:37:14It is from his majesty.
00:37:16Kale, I am waiting for you.
00:37:17Waiting for you to return.
00:37:19To crown me and to build an age of prosperity together.
00:37:25Your highness!
00:37:26Urgent report.
00:37:27The king of the neighboring kingdom has ordered a nationwide conscription.
00:37:29Perfect timing.
00:37:30Issue the order.
00:37:31All border troops are to be placed on high alert.
00:37:33Defend all cities at all costs.
00:37:35Await reinforcement arrival.
00:37:37Prepare grains and weapons supplies immediately.
00:37:39They must reach the border within three days.
00:37:41Yes, my highness.
00:37:42I will attend to it immediately.
00:37:48Your highness.
00:37:50Freshly brewed calming tea.
00:37:51Please drink it.
00:37:52You smell of sulfur.
00:37:54You're a church remnant.
00:37:55Since you've seen through me, we'll die together.
00:37:59Ah!
00:38:01Ah!
00:38:03Ah!
00:38:05Send my words.
00:38:06Launch a full-scale search.
00:38:08Anyone who smells of sulfur is to be executed immediately.
00:38:10No mercy!
00:38:11By her highness' command.
00:38:13We have to eradicate them, or they will never stop being a threat.
00:38:24Your majesty, a confidential letter from the Empress.
00:38:26The neighboring kingdom has assembled 100,000 troops to attack our border.
00:38:30The Empress has already dispatched troops to defend the border,
00:38:33and formed alliances with the surrounding kingdoms.
00:38:37She hasn't disappointed me.
00:38:39How dare he be so merciless?
00:38:40Then I'll take his capital while it's undefended.
00:38:43Take 20,000 elite troops.
00:38:45Take the secret path.
00:38:46March straight for the capital.
00:38:47Surround it, but do not attack.
00:38:49Wait for me to draw away their main force.
00:38:50Then take the city when they're unguarded.
00:38:52I will not fail your majesty's trust.
00:38:54Remember.
00:38:55Move in secret.
00:38:56Do not alert them.
00:38:58I understand.
00:38:58I will leave immediately.
00:39:05You vicious brat.
00:39:07Your time has come.
00:39:09My king, at her highness' invitation, is willing to ally with the empire to resist the neighboring kingdom.
00:39:14He has already dispatched 30,000 troops.
00:39:16They will arrive at the border today.
00:39:18My king is also willing to ally.
00:39:20He will send 20,000 troops, along with provisions and weapons, to support the empire.
00:39:25My king will send 10,000 elite troops to guard the empire's western flank,
00:39:29to prevent the neighboring kingdom from launching a sneak attack.
00:39:32Thank to your assistance.
00:39:33Once this war is over, our empire will repay your guidance handsomely.
00:39:38Hugh.
00:39:39Prepare a banquet for the emboys.
00:39:41Treat them well.
00:39:43I obey.
00:39:44Issue my order.
00:39:45Once the allied forces reach the border, the border general is to coordinate them.
00:39:50Coordinate with Kael, from within and without.
00:39:53Defeat the neighboring kingdom.
00:39:55Yes, your highness.
00:39:56Kael, everything is ready.
00:39:59I'm waiting for you to return victorious.
00:40:16You brought so few to die.
00:40:18After today, this plane will be your grave.
00:40:24Those who invade our empire shall perish.
00:40:28Charge!
00:40:29Crush them!
00:40:43Arrgh!
00:40:45Arrgh!
00:40:52Arrgh!
00:40:59Arrgh!
00:41:03Let's go.
00:41:31Let's go.
00:42:13Let's go.
00:42:15Let's go.
00:42:20Let's go.
00:42:20Go, go, go, go, go!
00:42:22Let's go!
00:42:25Get in there!
00:42:26Yes!
00:42:27Yes!
00:42:34The gates are breached. For the Emperor, charge!
00:42:56It's over! It's all over! Retreat to the palace!
00:43:19Kale! You dare attack my capital? Today, I will tear you to pieces!
00:43:26You conspired with the Church, attempted to assassinate my Empress, invaded my Empire! You must pay your price!
00:43:51You attempted to assassinate my Empress.
00:43:53Kale, I was wrong! Please spare my life! I will cede all my cities! I will bow down to you!
00:44:02You butchered my people! Today is the day you die!
00:44:12The King is dead! Surrender! Live! Or you die! The King is dead!
00:44:18The King is dead!
00:44:21The King is dead!
00:44:26The King is dead!
00:44:28The King is dead!
00:44:30The King is dead!
00:44:35The King is dead!
00:44:36The King is dead!
00:44:37The King is dead! The King is dead!
00:44:38The King is dead! The King is dead!
00:44:39The King is dead! The King is dead! The King is dead! The King is dead!
00:44:46I'm back. We've kept you waiting.
00:44:49You're back. That's all that matters.
00:44:54I kept my promise to you. Now, I will crown you.
00:45:02The war is over. We've conquered them.
00:45:05It is now a province of our empire.
00:45:07The church remnants have been eliminated. The realm is at peace.
00:45:11In three days, the Empress Coronation Ceremony will be held.
00:45:13Elena will become the one and only Empress of this empire.
00:45:16For the rest of my life, she will be my only one. I will never betray her.
00:45:19Anyone who dares to are pegged will be charged with treason.
00:45:22May the Emperor and Andris be of one heart.
00:45:25May the Empire prosper.
00:45:27Thank you, Kale.
00:45:28I'm the one who should thank you. Thank you for protecting my empire.
00:45:32Your Majesty, Your Highness, all preparations for the Coronation Ceremony have been made.
00:45:36Thank for your work, Hugh. Make it grand.
00:45:38Let the entire empire know that Elena is my one and only Empress.
00:45:41I obey. I will not fail Your Majesty's trust.
00:45:47Do you remember the first time we met?
00:45:50In the ceremony hall, you were sitting on the days you were cold as ice.
00:45:55The bitter sandalwood on you is suffocating me.
00:45:57Of course I remember.
00:45:58You were the first person who dared to look me in the eye,
00:46:01who dared to say I smelled of bitter incense,
00:46:03and the first person who gave me sweets,
00:46:05wanting to make the bitterness go away.
00:46:08From that moment on, there was a place in my heart for you.
00:46:13This crown, it's for you.
00:46:16I'm just a country girl, and yet I've become the Empress of an Empire.
00:46:22You are not a country girl.
00:46:23You are my light.
00:46:25You are the Empress of this Empire.
00:46:26You are the only love of my life.
00:46:35Your Majesty, Your Highness,
00:46:36all preparations for the coronation ceremony are complete.
00:46:39However, there is a Pope who come a long way.
00:46:41He says he wishes to offer blessings to the Antarctic's coronation.
00:46:44Where did this Pope come from?
00:46:46His memberine to Sintas.
00:46:48He claims to be the Pope of the Vatica.
00:46:50He has traveled a long way and is now waiting outside the palace.
00:46:53The Pope of the Vatica?
00:46:54Something tells me he's not here with good intentions.
00:46:55Whatever he's here for, let him in first.
00:46:58I want to see what tricks he's planning.
00:47:01Issue my order.
00:47:02Summon the Vatican Pope to the hall.
00:47:04I obey.
00:47:05Pope of the Vatican,
00:47:06if you dare to harm me,
00:47:08if you dare to disrupt the coronation ceremony,
00:47:10I will make sure this is the end of you.
00:47:28Your Majesty.
00:47:30I am the Pope of the Vatican.
00:47:32I have traveled a great distance to offer blessings for the entrance coronation ceremony.
00:47:36May the Divine protect the Empire.
00:47:38Protect the Empress.
00:47:43You have a faint smell of sulfur.
00:47:44You're with Various.
00:47:45You want to harm me?
00:47:46Your Highness, Mr. Stand.
00:47:47I am a messenger of the Divine.
00:47:48How could I possibly harm you?
00:47:49The smell of sulfur is merely incense used for blessings.
00:47:52Search him.
00:47:53By Your Majesty's command.
00:48:01Your Majesty, we found a curse charm.
00:48:03It has the Empress's name on it.
00:48:04How dare you hide a curse charm inside the palace?
00:48:07Unbelievably audacious!
00:48:08It's not mine.
00:48:09They're framing me.
00:48:12The evidence is here,
00:48:14and you still dare to deny it.
00:48:16You wanted to use this curse charm to kill my Empress at the coronation ceremony,
00:48:20didn't you?
00:48:21Yes!
00:48:22Elena the Witch killed Valerius,
00:48:24threw the Church into chaos.
00:48:25She deserves to die!
00:48:26Even if I die,
00:48:28there are countless Church believers
00:48:29who will avenge me.
00:48:30They will eliminate Elena the Witch!
00:48:33Guards,
00:48:34throw this sanctimonious fraud into the dungeons.
00:48:36He will be executed.
00:48:37Issue my order.
00:48:38Clear out all Church forces.
00:48:39Prohibit any Church activities.
00:48:41Anyone who disobeys,
00:48:42execution of their entire family.
00:48:43By your majesty's command!
00:48:50The Church's power.
00:48:52Completely eradicated.
00:48:54From now on,
00:48:55no one will ever threaten us again.
00:49:01Based on the irresputable evidence presented by the Empire,
00:49:04the Pope is guilty of symmetry.
00:49:07Today,
00:49:07the Imperial Council has reached a unanimous verdict.
00:49:10He is hereby stripped of his Holy See,
00:49:12and deprived of all sacred authority.
00:49:14This is an act of usurpmation.
00:49:16I am Christ's Viceroy on Earth.
00:49:18No mortal has the right to judge me,
00:49:20save for God alone!
00:49:22When your hands touched that accursed seal,
00:49:24God had already forsaken you.
00:49:26Your Holiness,
00:49:27rather than waiting for a miracle,
00:49:31sign this abdication of the Holy Seat
00:49:33and publicly acknowledge the legitimacy of my coronation,
00:49:35and I will allow you to spend the rest of your days in this monastery.
00:49:38And if I refuse?
00:49:45Then I shall install an anti-pope,
00:49:47and you will be branded a false Christ,
00:49:49forever nailed to the pillar of shame in religious history.
00:49:53Make your choice.
00:49:54Will you pray as a sinner,
00:49:56or die as a heretic?
00:50:00Okay.
00:50:04Kyle,
00:50:05you win,
00:50:07but you are seizing the crown of God.
00:50:09You will ultimately face an empire without faith.
00:50:12All I require is for my queen to rule by right.
00:50:16Your Majesty,
00:50:17Your Highness,
00:50:18the former pape has signed the abdication decree,
00:50:21formally confessing the church's crimes.
00:50:23All provincial cardinals have defected
00:50:25and sworn their absolute loyalty to the empire.
00:50:28Any remaining Lackleys who refuse to submit have been detained.
00:50:31From this day forward,
00:50:32there shall be no state within a state inside our borders.
00:50:36Excellent.
00:50:36Since they have confessed,
00:50:38let all church laws be sealed away.
00:50:40From this day on,
00:50:42the empire shall have only one voice,
00:50:44imperial authority.
00:50:47Issue my decree,
00:50:49abolish the church's tithes,
00:50:50and seize their illegally occupied lands to return to the people.
00:50:53Anyone who dares use the divine name
00:50:55to stand above imperial law
00:50:57shall be judged likewise.
00:51:00We obey your commands.
00:51:03Imperial authority is supreme.
00:51:05Long live the empire.
00:51:07Kael,
00:51:08the moment he signed his name,
00:51:10the shadow
00:51:10that loomed over this empire for a millennium
00:51:14finally vanished.
00:51:15You brought this decree back yourself.
00:51:17It is not just the end of the church.
00:51:20I will place the crown upon your head with my own hands.
00:51:23Let both gods and men witness
00:51:25that you are my one and only empress.
00:51:28I am ready.
00:51:36Tomorrow,
00:51:37I will truly be your queen.
00:51:40From the moment I met you,
00:51:42you were my one and only queen.
00:51:44Kael,
00:51:45having you in this life is enough.
00:51:48May we stay together for all our days.
00:51:50May the empire prosper.
00:52:13This is where I live when I was a boy.
00:52:15It was also the darkest place in my life.
00:52:18When I was young,
00:52:19I was slandered by the church,
00:52:20poisoned by my own kin.
00:52:21I almost died here.
00:52:23In those days,
00:52:23I had no one by my side,
00:52:25only endless darkness and pain.
00:52:26These marks.
00:52:28I carved them into the wall
00:52:29when I was writhing in pain after being poisoned.
00:52:32It's all in the past,
00:52:33Kael.
00:52:33It's all in the past.
00:52:35From now on,
00:52:35I'm here.
00:52:36I will always be with you.
00:52:38I will never let you be alone again.
00:52:40Never let you suffer again.
00:52:42After I meet you,
00:52:43my life finally had light,
00:52:44had sweetness.
00:52:46Your rose scent drove away
00:52:47the bitter sandalwood on me
00:52:48and drove away the darkness in my heart.
00:52:52Kael,
00:52:53my sense of smell,
00:52:54it seems even sharper now.
00:52:55I can smell things that are farther away,
00:52:57fainter.
00:52:58That's a good thing.
00:52:58It means your ability has grown stronger.
00:53:00From now on,
00:53:01you'll be able to protect yourself better
00:53:02and protect our empire.
00:53:04Yes.
00:53:05From now on,
00:53:06I will use my ability to protect you,
00:53:08to protect our empire.
00:53:20When I was young,
00:53:22I often sat alone under this locust tree,
00:53:24looking up at the sky,
00:53:26wondering when I would escape
00:53:27the church's control,
00:53:29when I would take control of my own destiny.
00:53:31Now,
00:53:32I've done it.
00:53:32Not only have I escaped the church's control,
00:53:35I have the empire,
00:53:36and I have you.
00:53:38This tree witnessed your darkness.
00:53:40and it will witness our happiness.
00:53:45In this life,
00:53:46I will surely keep you safe and sound.
00:53:48I will make the empire prosperous and strong.
00:53:51We will be happy and sound,
00:53:52forever.
00:53:53I believe in you, Kael.
00:53:55Together,
00:53:56we will protect each other,
00:53:57protect the empire.
00:53:59Kael,
00:54:00I will always be there for your pain and sorrow.
00:54:03We will stay together,
00:54:04never depart.
00:54:23The empress coronation ceremony begins now.
00:54:44I, Kael,
00:54:45in the name of the emperor of this empire.
00:54:49Name Elena,
00:54:50as the one and only empress of this empire.
00:54:54In this life,
00:54:56she is my only one.
00:54:57I will never leave her,
00:54:59never betray her.
00:55:00If I break this vow,
00:55:02may heaven and earth destroy me.
00:55:05I,
00:55:05Elena,
00:55:06in the name of the empress of this empire.
00:55:10Vow to walk hand in hand with Kael
00:55:12for all our days
00:55:13to govern the empire.
00:55:16To protect the common people
00:55:17until death parts us.
00:55:26Vow to walk hand in hand with Kael
00:55:48to walk hand in hand with Kael.
00:56:06I,
00:56:06My empress.
00:56:07My emperor,
00:56:09Kael,
00:56:09in this life,
00:56:10I am your empress,
00:56:11forever.
00:56:12Together,
00:56:13we will protect the empire,
00:56:14protect our happiness.
00:56:15Elena,
00:56:16in this life,
00:56:17you are my only one.
00:56:19Forever.
00:56:19Together,
00:56:20we will usher in an age of prosperity.
00:56:36You smell of mold and decay.
00:56:38You wanted to take advantage of the chaos
00:56:40to hurt someone,
00:56:41didn't you?
00:56:42No!
00:56:43You're framing me!
00:56:49Your majesty,
00:56:50your highness,
00:56:50we found a short blade.
00:56:51How dare you cause unrest
00:56:53right after the coronation ceremony?
00:56:54Drag him away!
00:56:55Execute him!
00:56:56By your majesty's command.
00:57:06Today,
00:57:07the day of my empress Elena's coronation,
00:57:09is also the beginning
00:57:10of an era of peace
00:57:11and prosperity
00:57:12for my empire.
00:57:13I propose a toast
00:57:14to all of you.
00:57:15Thank you for your assistance.
00:57:17May our empire
00:57:18and all the kingdoms
00:57:18forge everlasting bonds
00:57:20of friendship.
00:57:20Long live the emperor
00:57:21and empress!
00:57:22Long live the empire!
00:57:23Cheers!
00:57:27Your majesty,
00:57:28your highness,
00:57:29the conquered province
00:57:30of the neighboring kingdom
00:57:31pledges eternal allegiance
00:57:32to the empire.
00:57:33We will obey your majesty's
00:57:34and her highness's commands.
00:57:35We will pay tribute every year
00:57:36and we will never rebel again.
00:57:40Very good.
00:57:41As long as you stay
00:57:42within your bounds
00:57:43and behave,
00:57:43the emperor and I
00:57:44will not treat you unfairly.
00:57:50Ministers,
00:57:51raising their cuffs,
00:57:52may the emperor
00:57:53and answers be of one heart.
00:57:54May the empire
00:57:55flourish forever.
00:58:02Your majesty,
00:58:03your highness,
00:58:04the empire is now at peace
00:58:06and the people live in prosperity.
00:58:07However,
00:58:08in the court,
00:58:09most officials are of noble birth.
00:58:10Many talented commoners
00:58:11have no way
00:58:12to enter official service.
00:58:13There is much discontent
00:58:14among the people.
00:58:18I have a plan.
00:58:19We can build an academy
00:58:20within the city
00:58:21where regardless of birth,
00:58:23anyone can become a scholar.
00:58:24Promote knights or clergy
00:58:26of humble origin
00:58:27but with talent
00:58:27to enter the royal court,
00:58:29forming a king's council.
00:58:30Her highness's proposal
00:58:31is brilliant.
00:58:32It will allow the empire
00:58:33to select a vast number of talents.
00:58:35Your majesty,
00:58:35your highness,
00:58:36this cannot be.
00:58:36According to ancestral tradition,
00:58:38only nobles may attend the council.
00:58:40There has never been a precedent
00:58:41for commoners
00:58:41to join the royal council.
00:58:42Tradition exists
00:58:43to serve the empire.
00:58:44If tradition does not benefit
00:58:46the empire's development,
00:58:47it should be abolished.
00:58:49Those with talent,
00:58:50regardless of their birth,
00:58:51should serve the empire.
00:58:52If the sons of nobles
00:58:53have ability,
00:58:54they took,
00:58:55can take the university examinations
00:58:57and enter official service
00:58:58through their own merit.
00:59:00What is there to fear?
00:59:02Her highness wants to break tradition
00:59:04and favor commoners,
00:59:05I resolutely oppose this.
00:59:08The queen's will is my will.
00:59:10The establishment of the university
00:59:11is my final decision.
00:59:13Any who dare to oppose
00:59:14shall be reduced to commoners
00:59:15and banished from the capital.
00:59:17Your majesty,
00:59:18please spare my life.
00:59:19I will never dare to oppose again.
00:59:21Considering your age,
00:59:22I will not punish you.
00:59:23But from this day forward,
00:59:24you shall not oppose
00:59:25the establishment of the university.
00:59:27Focus on your duties.
00:59:29Otherwise,
00:59:29don't blame me
00:59:30for being merciless.
00:59:31Yes, my lord.
00:59:32I will never dare again.
00:59:33Hugh,
00:59:34find a location at once.
00:59:36Build the university
00:59:37and attract the people of the city
00:59:39to come and study.
00:59:41I obey.
00:59:42I will attend to it immediately.
00:59:44Ministers,
00:59:45see to your duties.
00:59:46Help Hugh draft the rules
00:59:48and spread the word
00:59:49about the university selection exams.
00:59:50Let every talented person come
00:59:52and take them.
00:59:53We obey your command.
00:59:55The university selection system
00:59:57will not only select talents
00:59:58for the kingdom,
00:59:59but also break
01:00:00the nobility's monopoly
01:00:01over the court.
01:00:02It will make the kingdom
01:00:03more stable
01:00:04and more prosperous.
01:00:07Your majesty,
01:00:08the regulations
01:00:09for the university selection system
01:00:11have been drafted.
01:00:12Please review them.
01:00:18Perfect, Hugh.
01:00:19You've done excellent work.
01:00:20Hugh,
01:00:20thank you for your hard work.
01:00:21Let everyone know in three days.
01:00:23I believe the university selection system
01:00:25will surely bring new hope to all.
01:00:26As you command,
01:00:28your majesty,
01:00:28I'll make the arrangements
01:00:30at once.
01:00:31Kale,
01:00:32our empire will grow
01:00:33ever more,
01:00:34ever more prosperous.
01:00:35Yes,
01:00:36with you here,
01:00:37it will.
01:00:45Your majesty's wonderful news.
01:00:47The queen is with a child
01:00:48one month now
01:00:49and it's very healthy.
01:00:52Really, my love,
01:00:53you're pregnant.
01:00:55We're going to have a baby.
01:00:57This is amazing.
01:00:58We're having a child.
01:00:59Hear my order.
01:01:00Appoint this physician
01:01:01as head of the Imperial Medical Academy.
01:01:03Reward him 200 towels of gold
01:01:05and 1,000 bolts of silk.
01:01:07Your majesty is so gracious.
01:01:09You must protect the queen
01:01:10and our royal heir
01:01:11with your life.
01:01:13If there is the slightest mistake,
01:01:15I won't spare you.
01:01:17Yes, my lord.
01:01:18I will do whatever I can.
01:01:19Your majesties,
01:01:21congratulations to the king
01:01:22and queen on the royal heir.
01:01:24This is a blessing
01:01:24for the entire empire
01:01:25and for all our people.
01:01:28Congratulations, your majesty.
01:01:29May the royal heir
01:01:30be safe and sound.
01:01:31And may the empire
01:01:32have a successor.
01:01:33All rise.
01:01:34Today,
01:01:34with the blessing
01:01:35of our royal heir,
01:01:36I declare a full year
01:01:37of tax relief
01:01:38across the empire.
01:01:39Let every citizen
01:01:39share this joy.
01:01:40Long live the king.
01:01:42The people will surely
01:01:42thank your majesty
01:01:43for your kindness.
01:01:44Hugh,

01:01:49Assign dedicated
01:01:50attendance to her
01:01:51and allow no disturbances.
01:01:54Strengthen security
01:01:55inside and outside
01:01:55the palace.
01:01:57As you command,
01:01:58your majesty,
01:01:59I shall see to it at once.
01:02:00All of you,
01:02:01return to your duties.

01:02:55Your majesty,
01:02:56here is the freshly brewed soup.
01:02:58It is good for you.
01:03:00Please drink it
01:03:00while it's hot.
01:03:04You reek of mildew
01:03:05and rust.
01:03:07You're a remnant
01:03:08of the old court,
01:03:09a spy from the neighboring kingdom.
01:03:10You came to kill me
01:03:11and my child,
01:03:12didn't you?
01:03:14Since you've seen through me,
01:03:16then we die together!
01:03:21How dare you harm
01:03:22my queen and child?
01:03:27I refuse to accept this.
01:03:34Your majesty,
01:03:35I am guilty.
01:03:36I failed to hold my post
01:03:37allowing an assassin
01:03:37to infiltrate the palace.
01:03:38I beg you,
01:03:39your majesty's...
01:03:40Your majesty,
01:03:40I am equally guilty.
01:03:42I failed to thoroughly
01:03:43eliminate the remnants
01:03:43of the old court
01:03:44and foreign spies
01:03:45leading to the queen's distress.
01:03:46I beg your majesty
01:03:47to punish me!
01:03:48We are guilty.
01:03:49I command you
01:03:50to be on alert.
01:03:51I charge you
01:03:52to guard the queen
01:03:52and the royal heir
01:03:53with your lives.
01:03:54Yet you let an assassin
01:03:55slip in.
01:03:56You have made
01:03:56a grave mistake.
01:03:58Guard commander,
01:03:59you are stripped
