Rex's shoulders felt heavy.
It wasn't his sector of playing politics, even though he's an Emperor in the Mortal Realm.
He grew up a soldier, not a politician.
Carefully threading the landscape of politics wasn't really his forte, and it felt foreign to him.
He wasn't Evelyn.
Had it been her instead of him, she would thrive in this kind of scenario.
I wish I could ask Evelyn for advice, but our connection is too light to use telepathy. I can't.
Just then, a sliver of an idea crossed his mind.
Even though this situation isn't really his expertise, he doesn't need to fully commit to it; there should be another way for him to reach his goal of saving Devo. Initially, he had little to no resources since he came to this realm empty-handed.
But now, with him becoming a part of the House of Castillon, he has more options.
He now has more paths to reach his goal.
