The Emperor's Omega Is An Extra-Chapter 318: First Exiled Princess
Chapter 318: First Exiled Princess
The two could barely look at the Marquis, but at the same time, they also couldn’t bear to leave their gaze off of him.
It was Ivo who ran to his alpha as he wept, while Rave supported him before he slumped and hugged his husband. Through this, the Marquis had not opened his eyes at all.
It was a reunion, but a bittersweet one.
They hurried to leave that place, and his father was in a critical state. He had skin and bones, and he was also unconscious. Rave was also afraid... that they were already too late.
However, he steeled himself and threw away all these pessimistic thoughts. As he looked at his parents, as his papa hugged his dad in his arms, afraid to let go for a second...
Rave’s emotions surged as well; it was both from his fear and happiness. The future was still uncertain, but at least his lifelong dream—the goal he pursued for years—was now in front of him.
Tears streamed down his cheeks, and he had no intention of wiping them. Rave let these tears soak his cheeks. His heart hurt, but he was hopeful.
Heaving a sigh, he went and hugged his parents and shut his eyes. Finally, he could rest his mind, even just for a moment.

While a part was slowly concluding in Rave’s part, the night was still long, and a few things were destined to also come to a close together with this night.
Of course, it would take quite a while for all of these things to be over. Slowly... The stage for the last act was being set.
Before that, another Chapter was also about to reach its conclusion. If that was a well-deserved conclusion, it was up to the people involved.
After the island where Princess Noreen was raided by the imperial forces, everyone from the organization forces that survived and even those civilian servants were all brought into the capital to be imprisoned.
They would wait for the trial and accept their sentence there. The empire’s movements that night had garnered the attention of the world and even its world leaders.
Some even demanded an explanation from the empire, saying the empire was disrupting the peace without giving a warning before they took action.
They were claiming that the empire had not announced anything, leading to everyone being taken aback. Hence, this was a violation of the world order, which the empire stood for.
In this, they made sense. The empire really threw away war ethics and did the operation without consulting the world’s leaders.
However... Spade was determined to also throw the rules aside this time around. Why would he pay attention to it when his opponent wasn’t? Wasn’t that his loss?
This night, the world was reminded again who was the powerful hegemon of the world. This silent beast had bared its fangs once more. They were all woken up to the reason why... The Present Empire was called the empire that once dominated the world and continued to stand tall and strong.
Everyone knew that the empire was the strongest country, but it was so peaceful for years, and the empire wasn’t an aggressive hegemon at all. It was inevitable that this deterrence, while still there, would become weaker as the years passed.
This night had helped the world remember the meaning of their reign as the one and only empire in the world.
Spade also made a speech after the operations had started from the different bases of the organization. It was broadcast to the whole empire and also online for the whole to see.
"The Old Order, remnants of the Old Empire, have provoked and tested my bottom line time and time again." Spade started with a solemn and strong expression. "Today, I vow to everyone who is harmed and to all of you who are listening and exposed to the uncertain future, I will not rest easy until I eliminate and destroy this terrorist organization."
"Also," he said, looking in front, as though looking directly into everyone’s eyes. "Anyone who dared disrupt my actions in purging this organization... will be seen as the empire’s enemy."
Spade had not held back at all! His determination to end this could be seen. He also indirectly warned those world leaders that wanted to muddle in the muddied waters: they better stay in their place or they wanted the empire forces at their doors.
The imposing and arrogant speech from Spade, the emperor of the Present Empire had even trended and been watched a lot of times all over the world.
The unrest had really reached a certain stage. Even the citizens of the empire were shocked since it was the first time they saw their emperor this enraged.
After all the information about the organization was also made public, everyone was in an uproar. It was really too much. What was shocking the most was what the Royal Family had suddenly announced.
Princess Noreen was stripped of her title as a princess and would be erased from the royal family’s record. She would then also be exiled to a remote island, never permitted to leave again.
What was more shocking was the reason!
Princess Noreen was one of the culprits in the late Emperor’s death!
The citizens of the empire were dumbfounded, especially those extremists and the older generation. Killing an emperor was such a huge crime! In the history of the empire, this was the first time it happened.
Everyone thought that the late emperor had died because of illness, but he was murdered all along, and what was worse, by his sister?
What kind of drama was this? The citizens couldn’t process it at the moment. They never thought that the empire and the royal family’s history would be tainted by this kind of scandal in its five centuries of history.
Wasn’t it already too late for this kind of scheme?
The name of the leader was also publicized: Marquis Laurent Ford, a descendant of the Old Empire.
The internet really was so full of juicy details that most people were awake to spectate the real-life drama.
Aside from the unrest caused by the Empire forces, the netizens were so full of gossip that they were already showing constipation from all this information that was hard to digest in just one night.
Amidst these shocking events, someone who was also at the center of the storm was also browsing the internet.
Arren, even though he was privy to the details, was also shocked, like everyone else. Perhaps it was really a different feeling after everything was publicized.
He was also a bit worried.
"Is it really okay... to exile the princess and announce it?" Arren asked, worry evident in his tone.
He wasn’t worried at all about the princess; he didn’t even sympathize much with her. Although he admitted that he was a bit thankful that she brought him into the palace and saw Spade before he died in the first timeline, That was that.
The princess deserved her punishment.
He was worried that this could taint Spade’s status as the emperor. After all, it was a huge scandal for the royal family.
An arm then wrapped around Arren from behind as he felt a kiss land in his left ear.
"It’s the least I can do..." Spade whispered, his breath brushing Arren’s ear.
Arren was so tickled that he turned his head to the side and pouted; his worry was suddenly overwhelmed by this action from his alpha. It distracted him so much!
Looking at him, Spade laughed and kissed his cheek. All of his tension dissipated in an instant.
Whatever happened, it was fine.
Arren also noticed Spade’s mood, and he didn’t think of anything else as he turned around and buried his face in his alpha’s chest.
While the world was in chaos, the two were at peace in each other’s arms.
