Chapter 97
In Daniel's forthright gaze, sincerity was evident.
Bertham was no fool; he knew well that the words spoken were directed at him.
A heavier silence than ever settled between the two.
"......" "......"
The silence prolonged, but neither of them opened their mouths first, aware that a wrong word could escalate into disaster.
This wasn't just about Daniel's perspective.
Emperor Bertham was now in a position where he had to be cautious of Daniel's reactions.
The aging and ill Bertham was at a juncture of transferring power.
In his younger and more vigorous days, he might have threatened Daniel to keep him under control.
However, the imperial power was now divided, and Daniel was well aware of it.@@novelbin@@
Most of the ministers were now swearing allegiance to the princess rather than the emperor.
Once the emperor passed away, it was Princess Selvia who would dominate the empire for the next several decades.
In Selvia’s reign, which was soon to commence, Daniel would undoubtedly be treated as a proven loyalist and benefactor.
