Chapter 1088: The One Who Must Keep Lying
Alwin sighed in immense relief when his lord teleported off the island.
The secret he had been trying to keep almost got revealed.
He had already used a forbidden spell to protect the secret in case his lord got wind of it, but alas, even that was not enough.

Once he learned about what had once come to pass, his lord would not wait for such a future to have even the slightest bit of happening again. He would highly likely eliminate everyone who posed the slightest threat or malice towards the Empress. And in doing so, he could accidentally break oaths he had with the gods and doom the future instead.
