However, the Holy Emperor also understood that he had not taken advantage of Baili's methods.
Moreover, she herself prefers cooperation rather than using the other party as a prop.
Therefore, after some thought, the Holy Emperor decided to take off his clothes and go to the bathhouse to seek further cooperation with Baili.
As for Baili himself...
Upon seeing the Holy Emperor suddenly appear in the bathhouse, he immediately invited him to bathe together.
Then the Holy Emperor slowly entered the bath and soaked his body from the shoulders down in the warm water.
Her movements were gentle, causing ripples on the water, like a lotus flower in the water.

Baili leaned against the edge of the bath, and before he could speak, he heard the sound of water flowing as the Holy Emperor turned towards him.
Looking to the side, the Holy Emperor, whose shoulders were as smooth as jade, spoke earnestly, his voice slightly tense.
"Mr. Baili, I believe you are aware, based on the information we saw in the conference room earlier, that there has been considerable opposition within the country since the promulgation of the Gastrea Law."
This made the Holy Emperor very concerned.
“I worry that this could trigger a bigger conflict, or even lead to the collapse of society.”
So far, dozens, even hundreds, of protest organizers have been arrested and will all be executed.
Then came the number of march participants, which gradually approached 100,000.
Baili's handling of them was simple.
Those who are willing to pay the fine can be given a chance to reform themselves;
Those who still oppose the Gastrea Law will be assigned to the outer districts and the wasteland reconstruction team, responsible for cleaning up areas that were destroyed by Gastrea.
In Baili's view, this available labor force still had some value.
"You don't need to worry too much about that, Miss Holy Emperor. The protests against the Gastrea Law will soon disappear."
"Why do you say that...? Does Mr. Baili have other plans?"
"No, it's just that we understand what those guys are thinking; once they realize that the march won't bring them any benefit, they'll choose to give up, so it'll be over in a day or two."
The Gastrea Act granted cursed children the same rights as ordinary people.
When ordinary people who oppose the movement realize that their interests will not conflict, they cannot continue to oppose it indefinitely.
"If all else fails, just release a few Gastrea on site and they'll behave. The ones who can defeat Gastrea are the Cursed Children, aren't they? Although there are holmium-based weapons for Gastrea, those things can't be mass-produced."
To put it simply...
He'll behave after being beaten up.
“That’s too much, Mr. Baili… I know you want to change the world, but sometimes, overly forceful methods can backfire.”

The Holy Emperor drew closer, her fingers lightly tracing the surface of the water, as if drawing a map. (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
"I want to ease this tension in my own way. If I can gain your trust and support, perhaps we can find a path to peace."
Baili stared at her, then asked...
"So what do you think should be done?"
"First, we need to establish more channels of dialogue so that those who oppose us have the opportunity to express their opinions."
The Holy Emperor said
"Secondly, the management of the cursed children needs to be more humane. They are also part of this country, and we should give them the respect they deserve. I share Mr. Baili's opinion on this point."
"There are some issues that I can leave to you to handle."
After a moment's thought, Baili granted the Holy Emperor this right.
However, he didn't forget to give some words of advice to the idealistic young woman before him.
"Achieving the change you're talking about won't be easy."
"I know."
The Holy Emperor said gently
"But I'm willing to put in the effort! If you can give me some decision-making power, I believe I can solve the current problem..."
At this moment, the atmosphere in the bathroom became unusually subtle.
The Holy Emperor was not only seeking Baili's support, but she was also showing him her sincerity in her own way.
She hoped to use this opportunity to bring the two closer together, thus laying the foundation for future cooperation.
Baili looked at her and felt a sense of admiration for the girl in front of him.
He knew that the Holy Emperor's choice was not out of personal desire, but for the future of the entire country.
In this distorted and chaotic era, she hopes to resolve conflicts in her own way.
"Until then... you can have whatever you want."
"I'm a greedy person."
After saying this, Baili reached out and hugged the girl beside him.
The girl was a little nervous and uneasy.
But she did not back down because of this...
"Please, Mr. Baili...feel everything about me."
The Holy Emperor made a decision, bringing them closer together once again.
Chapter 180 Tina: Me? Assassinate a god? I choose to surrender!
Since it's inside a bathhouse, there's no need to worry about sweating or getting dirty; you can just change everything afterwards.
Thinking of this—
As Baili held the weary Holy Emperor in his arms, intending to go to the bedroom to rest for a while before starting the second round, the anxious voice of a maid rang out from outside the bath.
"Lord Baili! Lord Baili! While cleaning the hall just now, I saw a letter that wasn't there before. It says the matter is very serious and needs to be read by Lord Baili himself!"
"letter……"
A smile appeared on Baili's face.
He opened the door and looked at the maid standing outside.
There are two people in total.
They also noticed the Holy Emperor in Baili's arms, their expressions showing some surprise, but they quickly recovered.
"This is it, Lord Baili."
The maid on the left held up an envelope.
Baili glanced at it, handed the Holy Emperor to the maid on his right, and then took the envelope.
Since he had just finished exercising and had little to cover himself, the maid who delivered the letter quickly found him a bathrobe.
Baili took the clothes handed to him by the maid, put them on, and then tore off the seal.
"In the TV dramas I've watched, there seems to be a practice called '823' where poison is hidden in envelopes. Once opened, the deadly powder that floats out will assassinate the person."
"Sigh... well... we were foolish!"
"It's alright, this thing isn't that dangerous."
Baili smiled and waved his hand.
While having the maids escort the Holy Emperor to his room, she also instructed them to inform Sima Miori and Tendou Kisara, who were still in the meeting hall.
Baili, on the other hand, went to the hall ahead of time.
He finished reading the contents of the envelope on the way.
"interesting……"
As he was sighing, Baili heard footsteps.
Sima Miori, Tendou Kisara, and Aihara Enju arrived at the scene immediately.
They looked at the envelope in Baili's hand with puzzled expressions, curious about what was written inside.
So Baili placed it on the table.
Enju Aihara picked it up, looked at it, and then read aloud.
"According to the intelligence I currently possess, the attack on the Holy House, initiated by several regional rulers, will begin at 7 p.m. The individuals involved will disguise themselves as opponents of the Gastrea Law and use bombs and other weapons to completely eliminate all the residents of the Holy House. This is not a joke, and I emphasize again, this is not a joke."
After reading it, Aihara Enju's gaze fell on the signature at the bottom.
“Mr. Baili, there’s a name written here… Tina Sprantt.”
Baili nodded.
He was somewhat surprised to have read the contents on the way.
In the original story, after Tina Sprantt failed in her mission to assassinate the Holy Emperor, she joined the protagonist's side after a series of plot conflicts.
And now-
Tina Sprantt chose to inform the Holy Emperor in advance before even starting the assassination attempt.
"Does this mean they've made their stance clear?"
Kisara Tendo took the envelope and read it again.
"Shouldn't we be able to find this person named Tina Sprantt? If she's not using a fake name."
"I'm just worried that this so-called Tina Sprantt might be an imposter, but her warning is still worth heeding."
Shiba Miori, who answered Tendo Kisara, revealed a serious expression.
She opened her iron fan and said earnestly.
“Mr. Hyakuri has unified the five major regions of the country. However, the rulers of the five regions cannot easily hand over power and give up everything they own. Of course, the Holy Emperor is an exception. Her thoughts are definitely the same as Mr. Hyakuri’s. So… only Sapporo, Sendai, Osaka and Hakata remain.”
