Multiverse Conquest: Rise of the Saiyan Empire

Chapter 174: Probing Vizir

Zeref sighed, feeling a headache coming his way. He casually sat. Irene who held a lot of respect to the Emperor, couldn't just sit idly, she spoke softly:

"His Majesty, prefers to be addressed here as Emperor Springan."

Lelouch smiled casually:

"My deepest apologies for my rudeness. But I address only one person as Emperor."

"I think the Black Mage, knows very wellthat it is impossible for me to make such an exception."

Irene was flabbergasted on the spot. The tone of the Grand Vizir immediately turned cold when such matters were spoken.

Meaning that there was no place for discussion.

It also meant another thing. The Atleasian Empire doesn't recognize the legitimacy of the whole Imperial Rule of the Alavarez Empire.

If such things leaked out, it would be ground for war, between the two parties.

YetIt was spoken casually by the Grand Vizir, like it was no big deal.

NoLike War with the Alvarez Empire, the Emperor Springan was no big deal, whatsoever.

And that also led to another interrogation in Irene's heart.

The Grand Vizir maintained such a haughty attitude with the Emperor, not even calling him by his official title. But with her.A Queen who lost her position and escaped her land, 400 years agoHe maintained deep cordiality.

'Something is fishy.'

But was more intriguing was the reaction of the Dark Mage. He smiled cheerfully:

"I don't find any issue with it. I prefer to be called Zeref anyway."

He sat down:

"That's who I am, after all."

He looked deeply in the eyes of the Vizir:

"And that's who you are trying to talk to, isn't it?"

Irene had a shocked gaze. She knew Zeref never valued formalities to begin with.But this was not mere formalities.

This was a foreign high executive, coming to their country unannounced, request an audience with whoever he wanted, acted uncourtly and even ordered around the Emperor.

No this was not a simple formality!!!

This was a show of might!!

Loud and Clear!!!

Zeref is not stupid!! He didn't become and rule an Empire for a century without understanding such basic things.

Irene took a deep breath.

'He is letting him act like he want. It's on purpose.'

Lelouch leaned back, a light smile on:

"WellI believe you had quite the talk with his Majesty. And I believe your doubts are cleared now."

Zeref sighed, a deep emotional light in his eyes. Something the Dark Mage rarely showed to eve Irene:

"It is true."

"I confirmed it with my own eyes."

"If the Empire responds to my requests. Then I find no qualms in serving the Atleasian Empire."

Irene had here eyes widely open with unadulterated shock!!

'What?!!"

'What did the Emperor just say?!!'

Lelouch smiled casually:

"OhAre you only doing this only for benefits?"

"This may not pass with his Majesty."

Zeref laughed casually:

"Do you think my demands are mere whims, or money?"

"Those are the pursuits of a lifetime."

"The ghost that have been haunting my existence."

His eyes held a trace of anger:

"If you think that my loyalty afterwards, will be questionableThen you are underestimating me, Lelouch Vi Britania."

Only know did the Dark Mage show it's fangs. Lelouch on the other side, had an elated smile:

"ThenIt is as good as done."

"I am sure than when you get to know his Majesty, your gratitude will eventually turn into love."

"It is after all, his majesty we are talking about."

Irene took a deep breath, her brain unable to even process the happenings here!!!

Zeref already made contact with the Emperor!! And is already thinking about becoming his subject!!!

'What the hell?!!'

'Then what are we doing here?!! Building this Empire?!!'

But does Zeref even care about the Alvarez Empire?

The Alvarez was only a way of accumulating power to reach his objectives.

NowThat there were alternatives!! This Whole Country doesn't even enter his eyes!!!

The whole Dragon King Festival plan was obsolete. But how would Irene know off The real power the being known as 'Saiyan Emperor' possess.

ActuallyHow could even Zeref have an accurate estimation.

Actually, until recently, even the Marshalls, and the Jannisary Leader, didn't understand how powerful the Emperor was.

The only he knewis that what he witnessed until now. Everything seemed possible, and nothing seemed out of reach.

Zeref sighed:

"I am sure I will"

"No matter how strong someone is.It is difficult to garner this kind of fanatical worship easily."

"I am the most qualified to know it."

The Alvarez Empire was built around the Springan's might. His power seduced and subdued everyone.

But even him, didn't have soldiers with this kind of gaze. Only his most faithful and close servants had it.

Lelouch smiled lightly, his eyes seemed cold:

"His Majesty is special after all."

"Comparing yourself to him, will only hurt your pride."

Irene had an intense light in her eyes. Those two spoke like acquaintances.

Zeref laughed cheerfully:

"Do not worryI was never that interested in being an Emperor to begin with."

His eyes contained a cold glint too.

"I won't miss it."

Lelouch kept eye contact with the Dark Mage, as if verifying his words. Before he let it go:

"It is for the best then"

Kallen, behind the vizier let out a sigh of relief:

'So tense!'

'Good.'

'I was expecting a little resistance or reluctance. But he seems okay.'

Lelouch nodded in his head. The Grand Entrance, the ignoring, the taunting and the probing.

Since he made his way here, the Grand Vizir immediately tried to provoke the Emperor Springan anyway he could. Simply to probe him out.

A Deal have been made with the Emperor when he was young. But such promises could not be taken by the word.

He didn't believe Zeref held this much hope in the words of a kid to begin with.

Only one year passed. But since he didn't swear loyalty to the Emperor. It is impossible to completely trust him.

Lelouch made this visit to immediately understandWill he deal with Zeref, the Dark Mage, or Emperor Springan?

In other worlds.Is he planning on serving the Emperor or comparing as his Equal in front of the Grand Vizir?

If he met Emperor SpringanHe would immediately dissolve all relationship with him.

That's why Lelouch decided to act in the most aggressive way possible. If he felt offended by any of the action he made.

That means that in his heart the Emperor Springan position is of value, despite its uselessness. That would make him an immediate threat to the Empire.

And all relationships would need to be severed. Even if Lelouch had to stand up to Marek himself for that to happen.
