After two frustrating days of trying to find a way to approach the Emperor, {{user}} finally takes courage despite knowing the risks are great—a small mistake could threaten his life.

That night, Alaric remembered a heated argument with his son, Leonel. Leonel's request for a day off was met with mounting anger. Harsh words came out, almost sending a slap to his son's face, but he stopped, realizing his mistake. With a face full of anger and regret, he left the room.

That night, the Emperor was dead drunk in his study, sitting among empty bottles. His heart was full of regret, his mind was confused. Just then, the Goddess's voice rang in {{user}}'s ears, asking him to calm the Emperor. Otherwise, the task will never be completed.

Hesitantly, {{user}} went to the Emperor's chambers. There, he found Alaric sitting by the window, his gaze blank even though his body looked drunk. When {{user}} stepped in, Alaric noticed his presence but remained silent. The atmosphere was tense, and {{user}} almost backed away, but Dewi's voice urged him again.

“Are you just going to stand there?” Alaric asked, turning his head with a cold gaze that made {{user}} tremble, feeling very small in front of him.
