The eminence of a true king

Chapter 72: CHAPTER 72: Unfounded accusations



"L-L-L-L-L-L-L-Leon-chan!!! Hurry~ help me~ Ahhh~~"

Anis turned into a golden meteor, drawing a beautiful arc across the night sky at subsonic speed, and then fell towards the palace where a banquet was being held.

Although she usually loves flying, her face was pale at this moment. After all, flying according to your own will and being shot like a cannonball are completely different things.

Furthermore, while flying at subsonic speed, she was still spinning, Anis felt that something very bad was brewing in her stomach.

"Um, it looks like the output isn't adjusted correctly."

Leon thought there was still a lot of room for improvement.

The power of the magic bombardment is not perfectly adjusted. Although the higher the power the better, it is still safer to add control devices.

But that's for the future, now he has to capture his silly sister before she crashes into the castle.

But without calling Dvalin, it would be unrealistic to reach Anis, who had turned into a cannonball, so Leon teleported directly to his landing spot.

He assumed a stance similar to that of a football goalkeeper in his previous life, strengthened his body and hands with magic, and placed a magical item behind his back that could cushion the impact.

"Come on, Nee-san! Let me get you!"

"Kyaaa! Be gentle!"

"What are you...poof!"

Before Leon finished speaking, Anis had already flown in front of him, and the two collided directly into the hall where the ball was being held.

To be honest, Leon even felt a little nostalgic.

[This feeling, squeaking, is familiar, it's almost the same as when I was run over by Truck-kun]

"Nee-san, are you okay?"

"It's very interesting, so many stars, BLERRRGH!"

"Hey! Don't throw up, you shouldn't do that, especially in such a public situation... huh?"

Leon suddenly realized something.

Everyone's attention at the banquet was drawn to him and Anis, and all the nobles looked at this idiotless pair of brothers with their mouths open.

But that's not the point.

The key is that there is a silver-haired girl surrounded in front of her. She seems to have been bullied by everyone. She was kneeling on the floor and crying.

"Huh? I remember she is Duke Magenta's daughter, Euphilia, right? What's going on here? This atmosphere seems very delicate."

Leon turned to look at one of the banquet's protagonists.

He was looking at him in shock not far away.

The blond boy, whose body was shaking, was his and Anis's brother, the third prince of this kingdom - Algard Von Palettia.

Leon remembers that tonight is his engagement party.

But now there is an unknown black-haired woman standing next to him, and Euphilia, who is supposed to be the heroine, was looking like a flower in the rain at this moment.

[Ah, this feels like déjà vu.]

Leon blinked and asked hesitantly.

"Ahem, I'm sorry for disturbing you all suddenly. Let me ask about the current situation first. Could it be that... Algard, you are announcing your break-off engagement and humiliating your fiancée in public because of an unknown girl ?"

"..."xN

"Eh? Why were you silent? Could it be that I was right? Can such an incident really happen in reality?"

Leon was very surprised at that moment. Did the romance become reality? He now wanted to take away the popcorn.

But the idea of making people think about what to say ended because he discovered something.

The Duke's daughter crying in front of her was really hurt and sad. She was like a child in kindergarten who was bullied and excluded. It made anyone feel bad when they saw her.

Leon: "Does anyone need justice?"

--------

Ten minutes ago.

Euphilia attended her engagement party.

Duke Magenta's daughter, known as the perfect daughter, is expertly welcoming the visiting nobles.

She knew very well that this was a political marriage between the royal family and her family, she had no feelings for the prince who was about to get engaged.

But that didn't matter.

Euphilia is conscious of devoting herself to the interests of her kingdom. Her family is a noble family known for their loyalty to the kingdom for generations.

She's very mature, so she won't be like the heroines in shitty Chinese romance novels who break off their engagement and run away just because they don't feel anything for their fiancé.

[My marriage is not for my own happiness, but for the prosperity of the kingdom. There is no problem with that.]

However, she came to a conclusion that was too strong and rational for a girl.

However, the Prince, who would be engaged to her, did not seem to have as deep a conscience as she did.

Normally he would just scoff at the engagement, but despite being a prince, he was communicating with a baron's daughter regardless of his position.

 He actually asked Euphilia to attend the banquet alone, but he was late.

Finally, after the prince arrived, he held the hand of a baron's daughter/betrayed her in front of everyone, ignoring Euphilia.

However, at that moment, his disappointment reached a new level.

Algard: "I want to declare that I give up on my engagement to Euphilia Magenta!"

Euphilia: "What the hell are you talking about..."

He actually broke off his engagement with her in public!

At this moment, the blessing banquet suddenly turned into a silent place. The noble guests showed surprised expressions and then began to watch the show.

Euphilia felt cold all over her body.

Does this idiot prince understand what he is doing? Does he know the consequences of doing this? She asked herself firmly, grabbing her skirt.

"Your Highness, why do you want to give up your engagement with me?"

"Hmph! Because I judge that you are not qualified to be a queen. I already know about all the atrocities you committed against Renee, the baron's daughter!"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"It's so ugly, Euphelia! I heard you bullied, stole, destroyed her belongings out of jealousy!"

"I-I've never done any of those things!!"

Euphilia had no choice but to raise her voice.

She has no memory of these atrocities. This is undoubtedly a setup and a setup to deal with it. Considering the Duke's daughter's position, she can think of many enemies who are against her family.

But it's useless to think about it now. By the time the Prince declared that he was giving up on the engagement, the situation had already developed in a more serious direction.

"His Majesty knows about..."

"I will make my father and the others agree later. After all, I don't want to marry you at all. I want to make my own choice!"

"How can you... be so blind? Do you know what this behavior means!?"

Euphilia just felt mentally broken.

She wasn't trying to threaten, she was telling the truth.

After all, the king forced his father to agree to this engagement. Now, the third prince's behavior of breaking off the engagement in public is a slap in the face to the duke's family.

It's like he's stepping on and spitting on his family's dignity.

A family that has been loyal to the king for generations.

No matter how good friends the king and his father were, they would probably become enemies because of this fight.

"How dare you call me blind! The real blind one here is you, Euphilia Magenta! You, who became arrogant with the status of the future queen and did these things, are not qualified to be my queen!"

Algard said fairly.

He also brought his own small group, the heirs of several noble families, to launch a one-sided and critical accusation against the unsuspecting Euphilia.

"You are not qualified to be a queen."

"Hurry up and apologize to the baron's daughter!"

"Don't think that just because you're a duke's daughter, you can do whatever you want. Apologize now!"

The silver-haired girl fell to the ground.

Even as strong as she was, she just felt dizzy at the moment. These unfounded accusations and provocations left Euphilia very hurt.

Why?

What did she do wrong?

Regret? Apologize?

She didn't even know what she had done wrong.

Euphilia trembled. She struggled to open her mouth to defend herself, but she couldn't speak because she realized that nothing she said would be of any use.

Although she didn't know why Algard made such accusations to her, she knew that he certainly wouldn't listen to his own explanation.

A feeling of helplessness spread throughout Euphilia's body.

But just when she was lost.

"Wow!!"

BOOOOM——! ! !

As if stones had fallen from the calm lake, the ceiling of the hall where the ball was being held was suddenly broken and two figures fell onto the scene like meteorites.

"Nee-san, are you okay?"

"It's very interesting, so many stars, BLERRRGH!"

"Hey! Don't throw up, you shouldn't do that, especially in such a public situation... huh?"

The first thing she saw after the smoke cleared was a young man with hair as black as night and eyes as beautiful as amethysts.

Although his current appearance is a little embarrassing, his dignity and temperament have not diminished at all.

The hearts of everyone present skipped a beat when they saw him. He was the second prince of the kingdom——Leon.

Leon: "You guys are doing something interesting, does anyone need justice?"
