" Fool! The new king is an absolute fool! " Julia Caesar exclaimed as she read the king's letter.

Over the past few months, Julia regretted her decision of not lending aid to Max when he asked for it as in the end it happened just as Max had predicted as he consolidated power even without her help.

Not only did he suppress everyone to take the throne, he also solidified his power through fundamental reforms and killing Ulrich as his current position was difficult to challenge by anyone else.

Initially she had expected the vampire society to fragment and rebel against the forceful King, however, Max had proved himself to be more than just a warrior as with great politics and administration he had kept the unity of the land intact.
