Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 153 The Crisis of the Frederick Family
The matter has returned to the struggle over the tomb of Elder Nafata.

Moreover, both of the kingdom's two major factions have gotten involved this time.

The radical Wendigo faction, represented by Enlid, considered destroying Fein if they couldn't have it, while the relatively conservative Boabin faction behind Grindelwald considered the possibility of stealing the tomb's contents.

One point they all can't avoid is that on December 2nd, a cargo ship will pass through the Solago Canal carrying the key material for breaking the tomb's seal, the Eye of Alaska, transported from the Southern Continent.

This item was transported from an ancient ruin and possesses an extremely high magical rank. Surna expended enormous manpower and resources to ensure its safe return, making it something that ordinary raiders could not handle.

However, this intelligence was intercepted by Finn, who then began to sabotage or contest it.

Prior to this, the Frederick family was also transporting the relic through the canal, presenting an excellent opportunity to either seize or destroy it using the relic's power.
The eyes of both major factions in the Kingdom of Fein were focused on the Frederick family. The Unger faction used every means to forcibly seize this crucial sacred relic, preparing to use it in the subsequent struggle.

Meanwhile, the Boabin faction, knowing they had missed a great opportunity, did not hesitate to activate a tsunami-level containment device from the Rhine Bureau in order not to fall behind in this battle. Even though this containment device would have a significant impact on the city, and the aura it leaked when activated caused the creatures in the royal city to mutate into monsters, and even caused some of their bodies to break through the containment seal and come out, they did not stop. Instead, they asked Muirna for help in controlling the containment device.

Out of his compassion for life, Muirner eventually agreed to the Boyabin faction's request to control the various hazards caused by the containment object until December 2nd.

In addition, Sulna also received some information that there was a high-ranking sacred relic in the Solago Canal that could threaten him.

Their attitude is simple: destroy it before it threatens them.

However, that sacred artifact is the core of the Dragon Clan's current bloodline creation plan. This plan has provided the Frederick family with powerful and perfect hybrids. If they lose the sacred artifact, the Frederick family will face only one fate.
Decline.

Neither of the two great kingdoms could allow another country's power to surpass their own, and for this, anything was worth sacrificing, whether it was a family or the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people around the canal.

This has led to the current situation of the Frederick family.

It is true that the family is now very powerful and its influence is comparable to that of a small country. However, the problem is that this time the enemy is the world's two major powers, and all parties want to take this opportunity to eliminate the increasingly threatening Fetri.

However, even within the Frederick family, there were disagreements on this matter, namely, between those who had always supported the hybrid research project and those who opposed it.
Those who can control the hybrids naturally want to overcome this crisis, but on the other hand, they want to take this opportunity to break away from the Frederick family and use the dead family as nourishment to nurture themselves.

So now it's a dilemma for Ita.

Having exhausted all other options, she decided to take the last resort: to personally travel to the canal to bring back the sacred object, and to fight back against any obstruction she encountered at all costs.

Although it may severely damage the family's vitality, it is the only way to preserve the family.

Before heading towards that unknown direction, she wanted to spend some quality time with Caesar and Yumilia.

After listening to Ita's account and fully understanding the matter, Caesar sighed deeply.

"What a silly girl."

Then, after carefully choosing his words, he said to Ita, "So, the solution you've come up with is to fight them to the death?"

Ita choked for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "I... I have no other choice."

If Ita were to go, it would mean she would be facing attacks from both the Surna and Finn factions simultaneously.

"The hope is too slim," he sighed to himself.

Therefore, he had to intervene.

"I don't blame you for this. You're still a child, and there's a lot you need to learn," Caesar said in a deep voice. He didn't feel the same sternness towards Ita as he did towards Sia, maintaining a gentle attitude throughout.

But these words still stung Ita's heart.

Indeed, she was too young and inexperienced. Faced with this crisis, all she could do was fight to the death with the other side.

Am I really qualified as the head of the family?

Ita lowered his head in frustration.

"Are you afraid of what a bunch of thieves have done?" Caesar said.

Ita quickly looked up: "No, that's not how it is."

"Then let me see your courage. The dragon race has lived on this continent for tens of thousands of years. Do you think they will be wiped out by these juniors?" Caesar said in a deep voice.

Ita was taken aback. These words slowly filled her heart with power, simply because the one who said them was the Holy Emperor, whose words could shake the entire world.

“I understand, Your Majesty.” Itana’s still somewhat childish face gradually hardened as she clenched her hands.

"No matter what happens, I will not back down. I will make them know that those who desecrate the majesty of the dragon race will pay a hundredfold price!"

“Very good.” Caesar nodded.

"I will send one of my personal attendants to assist you in this matter. Furthermore, you need not worry about the threat from Surna; I will take care of everything."

"Yes!"

Ita quickly bowed in gratitude. Although she didn't know how the emperor would arrange things, since he had spoken, she would have the courage to resist.

Although the identity of the "favorite" dispatched was unknown, since he served the emperor, he must be very powerful.

"That concludes today's audience. I will summon you again if needed in the future," Caesar said.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Ita said.

A flash of light appeared before her eyes, and a moment later, she found herself standing again beside her desk in the study.

She raised her hand and saw a golden star-patterned mark on the back of her hand flicker a few times before fading away.
This is probably proof of her qualification to enter the Formless Heavenly Realm. She has now officially replaced her great-grandfather Leogard and gained the Emperor's approval, which also proves that all of this is not an illusion. She really saw that great being just now.

Thinking of Emperor Shengyuan's promise to him, Ita felt a little lighter.
Now that he has the support of that mythical being, everything will be fine, and the Frederick family and the dragon race will continue to exist.

"That means I'll have more opportunities to spend time with Caesar and Yumilia, and I can continue to be with Caesar."

She clasped her hands in front of her, and the expression on her face slowly changed from blank and surprised to happy, with a warm smile spreading across her lips.

In the Realm of No Form, Caesar sat on his throne, extending his hand towards the several illusory figures. Next, he would use the power of the emperor.
