Seeing this, Kureya's eyelids twitched, and her grip on the sword hilt tightened involuntarily.

"How dare you! Seize him right now!"

"..."

After a moment of silence, a guard gently shook his head: "I'm sorry, Lady Kuraya, we cannot comply."

"We want to know just how confident the hero is, because what if he fails..."

If you fail, you're doomed to die. So why not disobey orders and flee?

Anyway, once the capital is destroyed, no one will care about a few deserters.

Kureya trembled with rage, her chest heaving violently.

It's all reversed, completely reversed.

She gritted her teeth, pondering whether she should gather more people and arrest all those who defied orders.

Just then, Ronan returned to the palace.

However, as soon as he returned, he saw a crowd surrounding him.

He squinted, but kept walking.

"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered here?"

Ronan's voice instantly silenced the surroundings.

Balta instinctively looked back, and the soldiers scattered, all turning to face Ronan.

But he immediately noticed the disfigured fat man that Ronan was dragging in his arms, and his expression changed drastically as he gasped.

"Lord Aldap!"

The crowd gasped in astonishment; this scene shocked them greatly, for Balta's words were indeed true.

The lord was beaten like this...

How will the princess handle this?

Some people turned their attention to Alice, who was pursing her lips, her mind a jumble of emotions, unable to explain what was happening.

However, she felt that Ronan must have his own reasons for doing this.

Why are you all looking at me like that? Don't I have my own job to do?

Ronan ignored the stares of the crowd and dragged Aldap forward slowly.

He approached Balta, saw his hostile gaze, and chuckled softly:

"You're here too? Are you here to complain about me? That's interesting."

"Alice, tell me, what should we do with me?"

He turned to look at the princess, a smile in his eyes.

Arrogant, utterly arrogant, Balta couldn't stand it anymore.

That tone was clearly provocative.

He clenched his fist, wanting to make a move, but held back because of the many people present, casting a questioning look at Alice.

Alice hesitated for a moment, then parted her lips slightly:

"Hmm, I think..."

"No, it's not good!"

Before she finished speaking, Rein appeared in the palace via long-distance teleportation.

She was clutching a stack of papers in her hand, looking flustered.

This is because all the records on these papers are evidence of Aldap's crimes, including but not limited to illegal possession of artifacts and illegal human trafficking.

In addition, there are numerous other crimes involving the kidnapping and imprisonment of women, ultimately leading to their deaths.

Coincidentally, all the women looked remarkably similar to Darkness.

In Rein's eyes, all of these were crimes punishable by death.

It is foreseeable that a large-scale purge will inevitably take place in the aristocratic circles in the future.

Taking a deep breath and barely calming herself down, Rein handed the evidence to Alice in front of everyone.

莎。

The paper wrinkled instantly.

Young Alice was experiencing a storm of emotions.

Halfway through the movie, she covered her mouth, feeling nauseous.

She forced herself to endure the discomfort and handed the paper to Balta:

"Here... take a look for yourself. After you've seen it, then decide whether you want to say anything bad about Lord Ronan."

Balta took it, not understanding the meaning of the sentence at first.

But as his gaze swept over the area, his pupils contracted sharply, and fine beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"This...this is impossible! Father isn't that kind of person. It must be a lie!"

My hands trembled uncontrollably, and I had an urge to tear everything apart.

Ronan patted his shoulder, the pressure neither too light nor too heavy:

"Silly child, whether it's true or false, others may not understand, but don't you understand?"

“I told you long ago, he is unforgivable. I'm asking you to provide the evidence.”

"But why did you have to be so eager to jump out? Now look what's happened, you're in an awkward situation."

He shook his head, his tone tinged with pity.

Then he waved his hand.

"Alice, let's go. I have many more copies of the evidence here. Let him calm down by himself for a while."

"Once we've calmed down, everything concerning the Alexie family will be confiscated."

The family's businesses combined amount to hundreds of billions of erys.

We can't waste it.

Balta suddenly looked up, his eyes bloodshot:

"Wait, this only proves that my father made a mistake, but it doesn't explain why you left everyone here knowing that the meteorite was going to fall!"

What if it fails?

“It will not fail.” Ronan said without turning his head, his voice calm and resolute.

"just in case……"

"There's no 'what if'."

"I mean, if..."

There are no "ifs".

"..."

!

Baltat could no longer contain himself, and the veins on his forehead bulged slightly.

Even though he is usually very well-mannered, he felt an urge to curse at this moment.

That's the correct answer, right?

Row.

He wanted to see what the king would do tomorrow.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to punch someone, and turned to leave.

But before that, he felt he had to help some people escape this potential disaster.

Ronan turned his head slightly, watching his departing figure, and chuckled softly.

He was righteous but stubborn to the point of being foolish. He said something was missing, and it turned out to be the audience who were questioning him.

He appeared upright, but in reality, he hadn't considered the potential for the spread of the information and the resulting unrest.

Who will be held responsible if there is arson, murder, and looting?

Alice’s eyes gleamed at that moment.

This is more in line with her image of a hero.

As a militant nation, it was previously quite easygoing.

But it will never be as dazzling as it is now.

……

in the room,

After executing that fat pig through both behavioral and procedural justice, Ronan fiddled with the necklace and quickly contacted Aqua.

At the same time, he looked at the stone in his other hand. The stone had a faint red glow on its surface and had been found in Aldap's inner pocket.

It was hidden very well.

At first I thought it was a collectible, but later I found out that it was actually another amazing artifact.

"The necklace's purpose is to allow one to exchange identities with another person, but what is this stone?"

He muttered to himself, his brows slightly furrowed.

Just to be on the safe side, Eris was also summoned.

When the two appeared, Aqua hesitated for a long time, unable to recall the purpose of the stone, because it was something she had given away decades ago.

Finally, to prove her abilities and not embarrass herself in front of Ronan, she confidently straightened her chest and said:

"Yeah, it's probably for throwing at people, right? Yeah, it definitely is!"
