Isekai For My Ex 89 Rara's Troubles

A year after Andrei went towards the portal, Kydus have slowly recovered to normal, although the wounds that the war has inflicted on the people still remained, it has already started healing I guess, humans like us are just tough.

Day by day I was busy with the reparations, repair, and organizing the new order of knights.

With the distaste of knights around town, the effort was made secret with only a few people involved who know it.

And these men didn't wear the usual armor anymore, the armor of Kydus have become a symbol of defeat and a reminder that once humans have been corrupted by an evil species.

Their armor was a reminded of the dark-elf attack and the atrocities that they have caused.

Right now to bolster, our military we started making large orders from the kingdom of Ethareri for weapons known as guns. The symbol of victory, that the surviving knights of Kydus themselves witnessed.

As the technology wasn't really given to us, we ordered the weapon as well as the maintenance cost, truly a genius idea for profiting over defense hardware and articles from the new general of the new Ethareri Armed Forces, Geraldine Savoy.

Who turned out to be Gideon's daughter whom he has hidden in Ethareri because of Layla Savoy's premonition that something will to the baby if she stays at Kydus which really did happen which was the dark elven invasion.

The name of the army was odd, but I heard the rumors from Gideon that before Andrei left Ethareri, truly a sinful gentleman, even when he's away he still makes sure that the woman he left still remembers him.

I'll pinch him in the stomach when he comes home as a greeting!

I wonder how will he react.

Recently, I have been bored of my duties and this month Layla is scheduled to open the door that connected to another world, although I don't know much about it and the complicated stuff about magic, I know that its a different world than our own and that it opens yearly and can only carry up to three persons per year.

If only I wasn't the empress I would have loved to explore that with Andrei…

Ahh, adventured with Andrei huh? I absentmindedly thought as I seated at the throne my father sat on for many years, my new ministers are lined up were rather young, of course hand-picked by the new prime minister Gideon Savoy.

To be honest, if Andrei wasn't on Queen Michaela and Princess Claire's clutches I would have taken him for myself. But I have gratefulness to the country that saved us and is even helping us now, and for that I'm not making any moves yet until I pay back my debt as an empress.

Although I feel bad for hiding the truth from them, as explained by Andrei it's the right thing to do.

As what he will do is something for them, and if Michaela isn't at the cornerstone of the kingdom, it would collapse.

But it made me feel guilty, since then I didn't see the queen smile anymore, she would only speak to me when there's business, and she hates small talk. There was also a talk that aside from her duties Queen Michaela hasn't shown her face that much.

Is this really the right thing to do Andrei? Right now… she must really be sad. If I were in her position, I would have left the throne already and adventured with you, but still this is your choice and I don't have anything to say about that.

In your way, you are thinking about their welfare.

And then suddenly Gideon came in.

"It's Gideon, Empresss Larierara Popannus"

"You may enter Gideon, and how many times did I tell you to call me just the usual, Empress Rara or something easier to say… "

Gideon fought with me after all to reclaim the throne, I don't want him to treat me as a stranger.

"That won't do Empress, you are now the Empress of the people after all"

He bowed to me magnificently as usual, but to be honest this middle-aged guy is annoying when I was still a princess.

The Empress of the people thing was a new praise to me since the news was spread that it was me who delivered the final blow to the creature my father turned into, with the part where the creature was my father kept secret.

Thanks to that it was easy to ascend to the throne and gain the trust of the masses and the nobles alike. I was called the Empress of the People for I fought with my people and built the empire again with the trust of the people.

"Okay, what's your concern for today? I'm rather bored today, so I don't want to take on any other boring jobs, rather I want to go out and help the people"

I asked him as I leaned on my fist bored.

"Empress, the lion has returned back to the sun"

I immediately was alerted and stood up.

It was a phrase we used that will be told when the door was opened and when the man I fell for returns.

Finally, Andrei is here!

I rose up from the throne and too my sword with me.

"Okay! Let's slay that lion!"

…

In the middle of the forest, I and Gideon arrived at the ruins where the portal was, it was a secret ruins only known to me, Gideon and Layla.

When I arrived it seemed that the transfer was already a success and I can see Raven and Eagle at their human forms stretching.

And Layla in her elf form tired sitting at one of the stones, it may have consumed lots of her magic, its been recent that she showed it to me, she needed to be in this form in order to cast high magic.

And there was also someone sitting on one of the stone he wore a black mantle and a black bandana on the lower part of his face, with black all over covering his whole body.

His eyes looked dead as he carried a weapon simillar to Andrei.

Could this be his new ally?

I smiled wryly as I waved at him.

"Hey Gideon, could he understand human language?"

Gideon was surprised as he also stared at the man.

"I'm pretty sure he could understand it, after all… that man is Andrei"

"Huh?"
