AGMATSWHLMAR Chapter 107

At the same time, Empress Catherine of the Osfia Empire was also surrounded by her own younger brother, Duke Carlos, with troops, on the grounds that she assisted Duke Auston in causing chaos and was suspected of plotting to harm the Emperor and the Crown Prince. Several light-energy cannons were aimed directly at the once powerful and unrivaled Empress.

“Carlos, why are you doing this to me? I’m your own sister. You’re helping the Emperor bring me down; you’re going to destroy our entire family…” When she saw who was leading the troops, Empress Catherine could hardly believe it. She never expected that the person stabbing her in the back at this time would be her own brother.

Since she was little, she had been proud and regarded as the hope of the entire family. Although she was indeed spoiled and never looked up to this inconspicuous brother, she had pulled Carlos along in many ways for the sake of the family’s prosperity, even if Carlos had betrayed the family.

If it weren’t for her secret help, how could Carlos have risen to the position of one of the Empire’s seven great dukes at such a young age? She felt that she had treated this brother even better than her own son—

But she never expected that Carlos would treat her like this for an Omega.

“Sister, it is precisely for our family that I chose to stand on His Majesty’s side. If I were to let you act recklessly, it would be to destroy our family…” Carlos said coldly, seemingly without any affection for the Empress, his sister: “After all, this Empire is His Majesty’s Empire, not our family’s Empire. As a Duke personally appointed by His Majesty, obeying His Majesty’s orders and being loyal to the Royal Family is what I should do.”

He spoke each word clearly, with fervor and righteousness: “Sister, don’t blame me. Loyalty and filial piety are hard to reconcile. Since you have committed such treasonous acts, I can only uphold righteousness and eliminate my own kin…”

“Carlos, well done, very well done!” Tears welled in the Empress’s eyes, and she laughed with a pale face, almost fainting.

The Emperor looked down from his high position at his wife, who had been arrogant her entire life, and had finally lowered her proud head in front of him. He felt extremely pleased in his heart, feeling that he had finally gotten his revenge in this life. He gave the Empress a contemptuous glance and said hypocritically: “Catherine, you are my first wife. Your family helped me seize the throne, and you even gave birth to two children for me. It’s not that I don’t want to treat you well…”

“But your actions are too excessive, and even our son, Auston, has been corrupted by you, which is truly intolerable to me.” Looking at the Empress, who was now his prisoner, the Emperor seemed to imagine the happy image of himself truly wielding power and being obeyed by everyone. He immediately became ecstatic and said: “Having committed such a major act of treason, and even conspiring with Auston to harm our Crown Prince… but I am still somewhat merciful to you. Rest assured, I will leave you a whole corpse for the sake of our marriage…”

Looking at the man in front of her who was calling a stag a horse and reveling in his petty success, the Empress’s heart turned to ashes, and she no longer had the desire to refute his nonsense and reverse black and white.

She calmly accepted the outcome of her defeat, but she was still unwilling to have been defeated by such a petty person. She took one last deep look at her brother, Duke Carlos: “Carlos… do you think he’s such a good person? How did Xue Xin and Kaland end up after helping him so much back then? Consorting with a tiger, you’ll ultimately gain nothing, especially with a heartless and vicious tiger…”

“Do you think everyone is your sister? Will help you and value you so much? You are loyal to him, betraying your own sister. I’ll be watching to see what good end you’ll come to!” The Empress gave a resolute look at the two men who had hurt her so deeply: “And you, Wilson, do you think everyone is as foolishly loyal and unwavering as Xue Xin and Kaland? Our son Auston is just like you, also a man-eating, bloodthirsty tiger. He will never sit still and wait to die. I’ll be waiting for your Empire to collapse and fall apart…”

The Emperor was well-versed in manipulating public opinion and calling a stag a horse, portraying himself as a helpless old father betrayed by his son and first wife.

The Empress’s death was embellished in the released news, and the charges against her were used as evidence that Auston had long harbored malicious intentions and that the Empress and son colluded to subvert the Empire. The Emperor even announced many ‘pieces of evidence’ that the Empress and Auston plotted to harm him. Comments supporting the Emperor and the Royal Family and questioning Auston were constantly pushed to the top of the StarNet, and anyone who spoke up for Auston had their comments deleted or were sprayed until they were silenced.

In just one night, Auston went from being a meritorious official of the Empire and a hero who had wiped out the Zerg to a rebellious and treacherous person who intended to subvert the Empire and disrupt the peace of the people.

And the Empress’s death, under the Emperor’s publicity—

Became the beginning of the wise and mighty Emperor’s extermination of the rebellious party.

“…My good father is really good at calling a stag a horse and reversing black and white.” The Gemini Star Fortress was under full martial law, and the tense confrontation between Auston’s garrison and the Royal Legion continued. Although Auston no longer had any feelings for Empress Catherine, he still felt a moment of loss when he heard the news of her death and saw the long-unseen scolding on the Internet uniting their mother and son.

Ruan Tang knew that he must be feeling something in his heart, so he immediately gently took his hand: “Netizens are always so easily swayed by others; they don’t feel the pain until the knife is cut on their own body… Rest assured, there will always be a day when the truth comes out.”

“…Yes.” Auston responded immediately and gently kissed the back of Ruan Tang’s hand: “…I only have you; it’s enough as long as you believe in me.”

The Emperor’s online trolls manipulated public opinion, but Auston’s underground forces, accumulated over many years, were not to be trifled with.

The Emperor vigorously promoted his wisdom and might and superior skills on the Internet, but Auston, after breaking face with him, unceremoniously listed all the Emperor’s past crimes.

He released them anonymously through online trolls to the Internet, including the truth about the successive deaths of Imperial Marshals Xue Xin and Kaland, the two pillars of the Empire, and the many other things the Emperor had done over the years to harm loyal and good people, as well as his attacks on his own injured biological son, leading to Auston’s lifelong disability.

Although Xue Xin and Kaland had passed away for many years, the people they had protected and the comrades who had fought alongside them would never forget him…

As soon as this evidence was posted, the entire StarNet exploded.

“…Damn, is this real? The cases of General Xue Xin and General Kaland were all done by the Emperor. Although the files of that year were sealed, I wouldn’t believe a single word that General Xue rebelled.”

“Tell me, is this really true? And this Emperor’s own brother, the former Crown Prince and his spouse, were also killed by them… and Prince Andrew was also sterilized by him.”

“He can even harm his own biological son after he’s injured. Is he even human?”

“This isn’t true, right? Duke Auston’s disability was actually caused by the Emperor. The Emperor is his own father. If it’s true, then he’s too pitiful, right?”

The evidence released by the anonymous account shocked the entire StarNet.

This time, all the people rose up to petition, demanding that the Emperor explain these events clearly and give an explanation, or he would not be worthy to continue being the Emperor of the Empire…

If so many dirty and disgusting things were all true, was this Emperor still human? Was he worthy of being the Emperor?

The Emperor didn’t expect that these old matters would be dug up, and he didn’t expect that these people still remembered Xue Xin and Kaland and even petitioned for him to explain the truth of that year. He immediately became furious and ordered the deletion of these comments on the Internet and ordered the immediate investigation and arrest of those who posted and revealed his past and attempted to manipulate public opinion.

But Auston’s teams were top hackers who had accumulated over many years to prepare for this day, and now with the addition of data geniuses like Wen Run, the chief of the First Research Institute, how could they be easily caught by the Emperor?

Not only did the Imperial Cyber Police fail to find out who was secretly spreading evidence of the Emperor’s past deeds throughout the Empire, they couldn’t even delete these posts.

Because of the backing support of Wen Run and them, these posts were not only undeletable, but they also directly topped the StarNet hot search list…

As for the countless accounts that questioned the Emperor and petitioned the Emperor to explain the truth of that year being constantly blocked, in the eyes of countless people, it became even more of a manifestation of the Emperor’s guilty conscience and his only ability to ban comments.

The Emperor was immediately furious, knowing that all of this was being manipulated by Auston behind the scenes. He directly ordered the Imperial Army to fire on the Gemini Star Fortress and attack the Gemini Star Fortress.

“You said that 5S mecha you and Carlos created can really kill Auston?” After giving the order, the Emperor was still worried about Auston, his most powerful son in the Empire, and immediately asked Chief Imperial Advisor Iso, wanting to get some more definite answers.

Iso smiled at the Emperor: “Of course, Your Majesty. If I didn’t have full confidence, how would I dare advise you to do such a risky thing? These mechas and legions are the results of Carlos’s family’s years of research and the latest technology… They will definitely be able to kill Auston and all those who are disloyal to you and our Royal Family.”

“It is a self-driving machine with autonomous consciousness, only listening to his master, that is, you, the most esteemed Emperor of our Empire. Without a spiritual network, there is no connection point and no weakness. Even if Auston has the strongest spiritual power, he will not be its opponent…” he said softly: “If I didn’t have full confidence, how would I dare to risk Your Majesty’s and our entire Imperial Family’s safety?”

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

He was never afraid of really forcing Auston to rebel, because he was prepared to kill him.

He had a system boost; Auston. Camille Hill was bound to die…

“Good, good, that’s really great.” The light of victory and the desire to truly wield power clouded the Emperor’s rationality, leaving him no time to think about anything else. He clapped Iso’s hand with great excitement and said: “If you and Carlos can really kill Auston for me and completely annihilate the Empress and Auston’s forces in the Empire… I will name you the Guardian Chief Imperial Advisor and enjoy the treatment of Prince Regent in the future.”

Iso immediately smiled and said, “Thank you, Imperial Brother.”

His ambitions were far more than that.

Outside the Gemini Star Fortress at this moment, as the intelligent center of the 5S mecha was remotely activated by the Emperor, countless mecha fragments left over from the war in the galaxy instantly gathered towards the intelligent center thrown down by the Imperial Army, like iron filings attracted by a magnet.
