Synopsis

The chapter opens with Simeon's defeat and then jumps to Julius' coronation as Emperor, followed by a ruthless purge of opposing forces. Princess Ivga visits Julius, who is soaked by her overly emotional ocean god messenger (a fox). Ivga then reveals that their royal line is genetically weak, has poor motor skills and can’t be healed by holy powers, explaining her risk in helping him. Ultimately, they agree that Julius needs to compensate her for her aid, with Julius joking she should be his brother.
