Chapter 691 88. The Guilty Person
An invisible silence enveloped the banquet hall that should have been lively.
"But the elder sister and the younger sister are one. Even if the little girl survived, she paid a heavy price..."
Annan who came to the princess said softly: "Sorry, I You need to show them your wounds.”
The princess stood there without responding. She didn't understand what it meant and had no idea...
Annan first untied the black ribbon that wrapped around her eyes, revealing dark eye sockets and a dull eye.
"This is one of the curses."
Annan opened her gray robe again, letting the guests see the princess's lost right arm.
"This is the second curse."
Then, Annan stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the princess. His dull eyes showed no reaction: "This is the third curse. The princess is now I am awake only at irregular times..."
Annan stood in front of the princess, looking at the silent Reiner and the frightened Alberto: "This is what you call disguise - the princess doesn't want everyone to know her injury."
"This This is the story I want to tell.”
“Finally, the princess in front of the Sealed Gate put the Ring of Lost City on my hand and wanted to entrust the Lost City to me.”
"I rejected her and returned the ring to her."
Annan's words echoed in the quiet banquet hall.
At a certain moment, the Lord of Huadu City stood up and said: "We are willing to believe your words, but we want you to prove to us that she is the real princess."
"Of course."
Annan Lower your eyes.
“But I hope someone will pay the price after this incident... No one can question the princess who sacrificed herself for Lost City.”
“No one can.”
"I promise you."
A middle-aged noble said solemnly. He was one of the big shots who came to participate in the celebration.
"What are you going to do?" Annan asked.
Another old noble came out. She looked at the princess with a hint of...kindness in her eyes: "The princess is the saint chosen by the gods. Even in turbulent years, we can still learn from her. ...Divinity. "
Annan did not underestimate this old man who looked similar to his ancestor. He remembered clearly that this old man was the legendary patriarch of an ancient family...
< br>
Annan let the old man hold the princess's hand. After a spell like a prayer, the old man raised his wrinkled palm, and a power that seemed to sublimate the soul was pulled out from the palm of the princess.
Some people in the banquet hall expressed desire and envy.
But Annan only saw the pained look on the princess's face, and the old man's sigh: "Yes...she is the real princess."
The old man canceled the spell, and the divinity returned to his body. The princess hid behind Annan.
He comforted the timid princess with distress, raised his head and said, "Actually, it's not that difficult to discern the truth... A power word spell can make him tell the truth."
"We tried it, and what he said is true." The Lord of Huadu looked extremely serious at this moment.
He realized that he was involved in some kind of terrible conspiracy to hunt the princess...
"Power Word can only tell whether it is a lie, but not whether it is true or false. So you just need to Ask him..." Annan stared at Alberto, who had also attended various banquets, but was now as humble as dust: "Why did you frame the princess?"
The imprisonment on him was lifted, and Alberto could speak. He immediately defended: "I didn't!"
A dazzling red light emitted from Alberto's body.
Now there is no need to distinguish between right and wrong.
Liner and Alberto were taken away by the guards. They will not be the only ones who will be punished.
The banquet continued, but there were obviously more eyes looking at Annan. Not long after, the big shots came over, hoping that Annan would hand over the princess to them. ,
"I refuse." Annan said without thinking.
"We will cure the princess..." "I don't believe you."
Annan's attitude was very firm, even though he was here to discuss business. "I will find senior Airies Montreal, she should be able to find a solution."
The big shots shut their mouths.
It is impossible for them not to know the ancestors of the Tatooine Empire.
Their silence made Annan think that these guys seemed to be much worse than their ancestors.
But I can still pinch myself to death easily...
At this time, an epic priest suddenly knelt devoutly in front of Annan and the princess: "Prince and her knights, please return to Lost City, Let's rebuild our home..."
The princess instinctively hid behind Annan. Annan said regretfully: "I'm sorry, but if the gods don't return, Yiwen City will not be able to return to its past... But at least you don't have to go back to the past. I'm worried that I will seek power. Next, I will take the princess to find a way to restore her."
As a knight who has been given a ring, he is more qualified to do this than anyone present.
The banquet came to an end. The experience tonight undoubtedly gave the guests more topics to talk about, but for Annan, he could not conclude any business.
Fortunately, tomorrow is the first day of the celebration...
“How did you do it!” Princess Crimson asked excitedly, “Those humans were fooled by you like a bunch of pigs.”
< br>"This is the highest state of lies."
——Tell the truth.
The Scarlet Princess was very happy at first, but suddenly she looked suspicious: "You are so skilled, you can't fool me, right?"
"How could the smart Scarlet Princess be deceived?"
"Hehe... No! You didn't answer my question!"
......
Now is not the time to talk anymore Taking the princess back to the warehouse... Annan had no choice but to take Princess Crimson back to the warehouse first, and then he and Itilia stayed in the princess' cabin for one night.
Early the next morning, the city lord, who had not slept all night, brought a page of names: a total of fourteen people would pay the price for this false accusation.
"Too light." Annan pointed to the name of the noble who received the letter from the mysterious man and said, "Just fined some assets?"
"He just received a letter..."
"Who knows whether the mysterious person and the letter he mentioned are real?"
"But..."
"The one being slandered now is the princess...As a knight, I have What are you doing?" Annan's attitude was tough, but the Lord of Huadu City was shorter than him. "I don't think the survivors of Yiwen City want to let go of these villains who are hunting the princess."
"Okay..." The city lord surrendered.
"One more thing." Annan looked at the name at the top of the list, "I want to meet this Reiner."
......
Later Sometime later, Annan came to the dungeon again.
He saw Reiner confessing in the cell - Reiner was not an outright villain like Alberto, he had a heart of justice and a desire for knowledge, but he just went astray.
And provoked Annan.
Faced with Reiner's confession, Annan whispered: "I'm very happy that you think so, Reiner."
"You...did we know each other before?" His tone made people laugh. Reiner hesitated.
Annan said: "I want to tell you a story...about Valencia."
