Words:1717Update:22/06/27 10:04:55
The situation in Falosi was a little turbulent lately, but it wasn't to the level of unrest. It was just that Mrs. Sizer would always hear some rumors whenever she went out.
Ever since the Blackwood Forest was set ablaze and a large group of Blackwood Elves became homeless, the entire Falosi was talking about it.
Everyone in Falosi was talking about this incident, but as the wife of the Duke of Blackwood, Mrs. Caesar knew very little about it.
Fortunately, after she entrusted her daughter to the care of the Blackwood Elves, she didn't meet with any accident during the fire.
And the reason why Mrs. Sizer was so eager to send Carolee out of the Blackwood Territory was because her husband's condition was a little strange recently. Although he didn't seem to be seriously ill, he felt like a different person.
Many of the servants in the manor gave her the same feeling.
Because of a coincidence, Mrs. Sizer spied on a servant in the manor who had his body deformed into a horrifying monster, a monster that was far more terrifying than a demon.
This made her leave the Blackwood Territory alone with a few trusted aides, risking the danger to go to the Imperial City for help.
After half a month's journey, Mrs. Sizer arrived at the Imperial City of Falosi the day before. Now, she was preparing to go to the most prestigious Central Academy of Drama in the Imperial City.
Mrs. Sizer sat in the carriage and saw a group of people gathered on the other side of the street. A man in a gray robe was giving an impassioned speech.
"A group of demons covered in raging flames burned down the Blackwood Forest! People of Falosi, please stay away from that land of disaster. Our great king has sent soldiers to suppress those demons! Please mourn for the innocent people who were killed by the demons in the fire before you leave! "
This was a very common impromptu performance in the Falosi territory, but the content of the performance made Mrs. Sizer frown slightly.
Ever since Noland came into contact with the Chaos demon named 'Josiah', Mrs. Sizer's perception of demons had changed drastically. At least, she wasn't willing to admit that such an outstanding artist was a 'cruel and barbaric' demon in the Kingdom of Saint's words.
As for the fire in Blackwood Forest, Mrs. Sizer learned from her daughter, Carolee's letter that it was all done by the Heresy Court of the Kingdom of Saint!
This was also the reason why she came to the capital. It was to tell the king everything the Kingdom of Saint had done.
The Falosi Kingdom, on the other hand, was filled with rumors that the demons had burned down the Blackwood Forest. Mrs. Sizer was sure that all of this was done by the missionaries of the Holy Kingdom.
"Olis, whether or not our king will avenge your clan will depend on your sincerity."
Mrs. Sizer withdrew her gaze and looked at a Blackwood Elf girl sitting in the carriage. She was a witness introduced to Mrs. Sizer by the Elf Elder Safane.
"I will watch my words, Duchess Blackwood. Thank you for giving me this opportunity." She bowed to Mrs. Sizer.
The carriage suddenly stopped when it entered the Royal City's Central Academy of Drama. Mrs. Caesar opened the curtains of the carriage and saw a dozen fully armed knights standing outside.
"Stay in the carriage and don't get out," Mrs. Caesar said as she opened the door of the carriage and alighted.
"I am the wife of the Duke of Blackwood in the North, Karana van Donal … You better have a reason to stop me."
Mrs. Sizer's gaze swept across the group of fully armed knights. There were two powerful mages among them.
"Karana van Donal, wife of the Duke of Blackwood, daughter of the Duke of Ranke in the North, by the law of the Empire … you are under arrest."
One of the knights walked out of the formation, opened a scroll and announced loudly.
"Arrested?!"
Mrs. Sizer's heart sank. She didn't expect to be treated like this after coming to the Falosi Kingdom.
Another knight walked out of the line and took out a pair of handcuffs to arrest Mrs. Sizer. Mrs. Sizer felt a magic fluctuation in the carriage behind her.
The Blackwood Elf girl seemed to be ready to save Mrs. Sizer, but Mrs. Sizer raised her hand to stop her.
"I want to know what my crime is. Who gave the order! "
Mrs. Sizer's hands were cuffed, but her tone was surprisingly calm.
"Unfortunately, this is not within the scope of our answer. But you will soon be sentenced."
The leading knight gave an order to his soldiers. The soldiers walked towards the carriage and seemed to be ready to search it.
When the soldiers opened the carriage, the Blackwood Elf had disappeared. The soldiers took out a suitcase from the carriage.
Inside the suitcase were not only Mrs. Sizer's clothes, but also the raw crystal that recorded the video of "This Demon Is Not Too Cold".
"We will keep these for you," the leading knight said. "Now, please follow me to the court."
"I didn't know there was a court in the Central Academy of Drama."
Mrs. Sizer's voice gradually turned cold. Her gaze swept across all the knights and soldiers. Some of the more timid soldiers didn't even dare to look Mrs. Sizer in the eye.
She was a powerful noble in Falosi. Both her husband and her father were great nobles of the first class in Falosi.
Therefore, if there was no suitable crime, the knights and soldiers involved in the arrest would face the trouble of being beheaded. And …
"There aren't many in Falosi who have the right to interrogate me," Mrs. Sizer said.
"Coincidentally, these few are waiting for you in the court today. Please follow me, Lady Sizer."
The leading knight walked into the depths of the Central Academy of Drama. Mrs. Sizer followed them all the way to a grand building.
"The Senate …"
Mrs. Sizer, of course, knew what this grand building represented. In the younger days, this was the center of power in Falosi. But in this era, the power was still in the hands of the king and nobles.
Although the Senate system still existed, its influence was not as great as before.
Led by the knight, Mrs. Caesar entered the building with a long history. As the crystal lights engraved with the illumination spell were lit, Mrs. Caesar could clearly see the silhouettes sitting on the judge's seat.
Just as the knight said, the people who participated in this trial were all important figures who had the right to judge her.
"I want to know what crime I have committed, Your Majesty … This trip to the imperial city is the worst one since I was born."
Mrs. Sizer looked at the middle-aged man with a crown sitting in the middle. Although Mrs. Sizer did not see her father among them, the king of Falosi was a good friend of her husband, Duke Blackwood.
The king did not speak. His expression was solemn as he looked at the middle-aged man with a crown sitting in the middle.
The king did not speak. His expression was solemn as he looked at the hunchbacked minister beside him.
The minister slowly stood up and opened an old sheepskin scroll.
"Karana van Donal, you are accused of treason. You colluded with the devil in the Demon Realm and attempted to summon the devil to invade the borders of Falosi."
"Ridiculous! I want to know who accused me! "Mrs. Sizer shouted at the minister.
