A great change occurred in the world, foremost was the surrender of the world's strongest Kingdom Asura, which became a direct part of the Camelot Kingdom, and the entire Kingdom's name was changed from Asura to Camelot. Secondly, the Nobles who surrendered to the Camelot and betrayed the Asura Kingdom where the first to be offered to become the Nobles of Camelot, however the terms where something that they didn't like.

"What the meaning of this Princess?!!", shouted the Astor Eurus with anger, after all the promises made to them were not fulfilled and in fact even their previous political power was about to diminish." This are the rules for the Nobles of the Kingdom of Camelot, they are equal for every Noble regardless of the rank they possess", she said with a smile unbothered by the angry looks of the Noble.

" Princess are you kidding us?! You promised us more power! more land! more money! But instead of that we get some restrictions that bind us greatly! We have to surrender half of our private treasury to the Kingdom instantly and our taxes increase from the usual of 20% to astonishing 80%?! If that wasn't enough here are various laws that bind us from enjoying women! We can't force any woman from now onwards and consent will be needed?! What is this bullshit?!", he continued.

The other Nobles too followed the suit raising their voice, Luke meanwhile looked at the Nobles with narrowed eyes,' Filthy beings, they have got the courage to make demands to her Highness ', he thought. It was obvious that despite the sadistic personality of his Princess, he had fell in love with her. Now, he was filled with the thoughts of how to destroy King Arthur the man who had gained immense affection from the Princess.

' Luke you control yourself, even if the plan was a failure I doubt he could fight against the Human God ', he thought greedily glancing at Ariel which she didn't miss but decided to ignore it for now. Pilemon Notos suddenly raised his voice," Princess! Unlike them I believe that our demands might have been lavish, but if you talk with King Arthur it should be possible for us to retain our previous prosperity!"

" Are you an Idiot Pilemon?! Princess had used us like some useless pawns and now had discarded us after she became the Prime Minister of Camelot! Can't you see this greedy bitch had taken advantage of us?", Astor Eurus said in anger, berating Pilemon for his meekness." Well, well I guess that's enough- Infact the show you all presented was quite good! At least I know whom should I get rid of now!", she said, her words scaring the nobles.

" Yo-You can't do this Princess! You need us! Do you think this newly built Kingdom will be able to hold itself together without us?! ", Astor Eurus said in a fearful voice. But unfortunately for him, his fate was sealed as his body including many of the Nobles rose up in the air helplessly, then under the horrified eyes of remaining Nobles their necks snapped, and they died falling in the ground.

Ariel rose up from her Throne," Kneel down or perish like them!", she said in a haughty tone, a cruel smile forming on her face as she glanced at the dead nobles with slight pity,' Hmm, If only I didn't needed to do it fast I could have tortured them before killing them, what a pity ', she thought while the remaining Nobles including Pilemon quickly went on their knees.

" Good! You have saved your life and your position from this surrender! Be proud to become the Nobles of this mighty Kingdom! Hail King Arthur! Hail Goddess Minerva!!", she said and Nobles reading the mood started chanting after her with bitter expressions," Hail King Arthur! Hail Goddess Minerva!!", her smile widened as she thought,' Good, now it's time that I completely annex the Asura Kingdom and finish up the small rebellions '.

...

The destruction of Two orders of the Holy Milis Kingdom and the show of might of Goddess Minerva had made the entire country's order disrupted. " Damnit! Why I made such a rash decision back then?! As the Cardinal I could have intercepted his decision! ", Cardinal Leblanc Mcfarlane said in a regretting tone. Others didn't have a good expression as well after although their biggest enemy the Pope Harry died in that war the presence of Goddess Minerva was extremely bad for them.
