My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

"Well, can you help me disguise myself and cover up these two things that are in the way on my head?"

"...This thing really doesn't seem to be easy to cover up, and your eyes are different from before."

"right."

When Orson heard what Franka said, he sighed helplessly.

"So, this is all I can do now."

"But anyway, since I have a nocturnal creature like you to keep me company, it's not too boring."

When Franca heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then turned her head away.

"I don't take that as a compliment!"

Chapter 4: Queen (K)

A few more days passed, and after Elsa completed Arthas's funeral and announced the official version of the political struggle, the time for her coronation finally came.

Early in the morning, Elsa sat alone in the palace, and behind her was Aphrodite, who had been with her for a long time.

"I didn't expect that you would become the queen now, Elsa."

Afro said with emotion as she braided Elsa's hair.

Elsa sat in front of the mirror, looking at herself in the mirror, and forced a smile at the corners of her mouth.

For her, the price she paid to ascend the throne was simply too high.

Moreover, many more people paid a much higher price than she did in order to help her ascend the throne.

"I don't know if this is worth it, Aphrodite."

Elsa reached out and gently took Aphrodite's hand on her shoulder.

Afro could feel that Elsa's palms were very cold, which did not seem like she was happy or pleased.

“Too many people died because of me.”

"Too many people paid an unnecessary price because of me."

"It's already this time, are you still saying such discouraging words? My Queen?" Afro said this, sighed, and then comforted:

"Don't you trust my divination the most? According to my divination, your future will be full of ups and downs, but everything will be rewarded in the end."

"Everything is just as predicted by divination, isn't it?"

"But, among all the stars, I am not the one that is surrounded by them, right?"

“No one is.”

Afro shook his head.

"All stardust has its own orbit. It seems that some stars orbit around a star for their entire lives, but isn't that star also orbiting around other stars?"

"So, you astrologers use some mysterious and neutral words to confuse people. You can say both good and bad things, so of course you can't make mistakes."

Elsa couldn't help but complain.

"Hey, alright, alright, cheer up. Today is your coronation day. How can you be so sad on such an occasion?"

Afro cleverly avoided answering Elsa's question directly and patted Elsa on the shoulder instead.

"By the way, now that the issue of the throne has been resolved for you, the next step is to start thinking about the issue of succession, right?"

"Heir?" Elsa was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I am still young... I have never thought about this issue."

"Eh? That won't work~" Afro said, putting his hands on his chest and making a big cross.

"As an emperor, the stability of the empire is the top priority, and within the stability of the empire, having an heir is the most important thing. However, considering that you don't have a husband yet, wouldn't it be better for you to marry one first?"

"Hey, Elsa, do you have someone you like? If so, you can confess your feelings to the other person directly while you are the queen. There will be no problem."

"..." Elsa was stunned for a moment when she heard that, then her face turned red and she quickly shook her head.

"No... No, I haven't thought about this problem yet. Besides, no... It's impossible!"

"Oh? How do you know it's impossible if you haven't thought about it? Or do you already have your own candidate in mind, Elsa?"

Seeing that the more she explained, the more confused she became, Elsa simply shook her head and said, "It's not what you think! Okay, Afro, let's not talk about this issue anymore!"

Seeing that Elsa was so determined not to answer this question, Afro could only shrug helplessly and then sighed.

"Well, anyway, it's about time now. It's time for you to go out and meet your subjects."

"Yeah." Elsa nodded.

She took a few deep breaths, adjusted her mood, and looked at herself in the mirror again. She had delicate makeup and elegant hairstyle, and her whole body exuded a noble temperament.

Although it may sound a bit conceited, at this moment, I feel like the most beautiful person in the world.

The power of the empire is firmly in his hands.

Elsa stood up, and then walked outside accompanied by Afro.

Originally, relatives should have been present on the day of the coronation, but Elsa now has no relatives.

The so-called distant relatives and collateral relatives are separated by countless generations and have long been quite estranged from each other.

Entering the hall, Pope Levi was already standing in front of the throne waiting for Elsa. Seeing Elsa coming, he picked up the crown next to him.

On both sides of the hall stood the hereditary nobles and imperial officials.

As Elsa walked towards the Pope, they all knelt on one knee and looked down at the ground.

This scene was much more grand than the hasty coronation of Arthas before.

Elsa walked up to the Pope step by step, then stood still and clasped her hands together.

Then, she lowered her head slightly, closed her eyes and said:

"The great goddess protects every one of us, the subjects of the empire."

Hearing this, Pope Levi also raised the crown in his hand high, and then he shouted with full energy:

"Great goddess! May the goddess's blessing always be upon her kingdom, and may the goddess's light always shine upon her believers!"

Then he gently placed the crown in his hand on Elsa's head.

He then made way for Elsa to sit directly on the throne.

After seeing Levi make way, Elsa moved gently to the throne, then sat down gently. She held the scepter in her hand, which symbolized the royal power, and tapped the ground lightly.

Almost in an instant, the ground changed, and a water-blue light flashed from the center of the hall. Then, many people's eyes stopped on it.

For many people, even the powerful, they may only have one chance in their lifetime to witness a coronation ceremony.

After the aqua blue light symbolizing the royal color gradually faded away, it also meant the official end of the coronation ceremony. At this time, the nobles and officials present knelt on the ground and saluted Elsa.

"Congratulations on the coronation of our emperor! May our emperor live forever and rule the country forever!"

Elsa waved her hand gently, and at this time, everyone stood up again from their kneeling position.

She glanced at the crowd, as if looking for someone among them, but in the end, it seemed that she found nothing, and her eyes revealed a hint of disappointment.

Yes, with his current physical condition, how could he appear in public?

The next procedure was for the six dukes to pay their respects to the Queen separately.

Until the end of the Duchy of Naples, Orson, whom Elsa was expecting, did not show up, but Naples' Prime Minister Celinina appeared in front of Elsa.

"Your Majesty... Duke Orson was seriously injured in the last battle and is still recuperating. On behalf of Duke Orson and all the subjects of the Duchy of Naples, I would like to send you greetings."

"It doesn't matter." Elsa shook her head, then smiled and said:

"Tell Duke Orson for me to take good care of himself. He is a pillar of the empire and must take good care of himself."

"I will, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

Chelinina also smiled and then stepped back.

This is only part of the coronation process. Next, as the new queen, Elsa will go to Saint Laurent City to meet her subjects and give a speech in the central square.

After becoming an emperor, life became even harder...

On the other side, in the basement.

"If I'm not mistaken, the time now should be the time for Elsa to ascend the throne and be crowned." Franka said this while looking at Orson lying on the bed.

"Why are you telling me this? I can't go out now." Orson looked at the book in his hand and replied simply, as if he really had no interest in it.

These days, Orson has been able to get out of bed and walk normally again. The horns on his forehead are gradually getting smaller, and his eyes have returned to normal.

Except for some unidentified black patterns on his arms, everything else is slowly returning to normal appearance and it is expected to be back to normal in a few days.

But what worries Orson is his own strength. It is not so much that it has not fully recovered, but rather that it has not recovered at all.

He now felt that any strong person could knock him down, and he was unable to use magic.

Falling all the way from the sky to the bottom of the valley is definitely not a pleasant feeling.

"Eh? Don't say that. After all, you spent so much money to support Elsa to become the emperor. Don't you want to see what she looks like when she wears the imperial robe?"

"This kind of thing... isn't so bad."

"So you really still want to wear the imperial robe yourself?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Orson gave Franka a displeased look.

It seems that because of her age, Franka is not afraid of anything. This attitude is okay in Orson's opinion, but if seen by others, they will more or less think that Afro is disrespectful to others.

Especially the object of disrespect is Her Majesty the Queen today.

Orson got up from the bed, went upstairs, got some food, and then returned to the basement.

"So this is where you usually live?"

Orson asked after returning to the basement.

"Yeah." Franka nodded.

Orson stood there, staring at Franka for a long time, and then said with emotion:

"She looks like a harmless pretty girl, but she actually likes to live in such a dark and damp corner..."

"Hey, that's very rude! Every race has different habits! Besides, it's not like I can't live in the places where you humans live, I just prefer this place..."

When Franka heard Orson's words, she quickly explained:

"……Really."

Hearing this, Orson nodded indifferently.

This made Franca inexplicably angry again.

"Hey! You were the one who brought up the topic, why aren't you continuing the conversation now?"

"Because there is no need." Orson said this and lay back on the bed.

"I just need to know what I want to know."

"It's so infuriating." Franka complained in a low voice, as if she was angry with Orson, and went upstairs.

After Franka left, Orson raised his head, glanced at the basement door, and then continued reading the book in his hand.

As night fell, the coronation ceremony that lasted for a day finally came to an end. Elsa returned to the palace exhausted and lay on her bed, but she couldn't fall asleep.

On the one hand, this used to be the place where she, her father and her brother lived together day and night, but now suddenly she is the only one left here, and she is not quite used to it.

On the other hand, she suddenly recalled what Afro had said to her today.

Now that I have become the empress, the succession to the empire will definitely be a problem.

If she didn't want to give up her position of heir to another family, she would have to find a husband as soon as possible.

Only in this way, ministers and local nobles would not have to worry about the issue of succession because they were already married and still young.

On the contrary, it is estimated that within a few years, many ministers will write letters to ask for early marriage, and they may even force blind dates on themselves.

In this situation, the first person Elsa thought of was, of course, Orson, who had saved her in the snow, stood wholeheartedly on her side in the war of royal succession, and even paid a huge price for it.

To be honest, if Orson hadn't already been engaged to Olivia, Elsa would really have launched an offensive against Orson, and might even have directly made a marriage contract with Orson.

But the problem facing Elsa now is very complicated.
