Chapter 693 Fake court (6)

After all, they knew about the things that I had done and I had even received the nickname of butcher by the populace.

If we were talking about the people that were most hated by the people of the other kingdoms, I would certainly be at the top of that list.

So what he was implying was technically correct.

It was just that…

Seeing that no one said anything, the former General Gardner took this as a sign that they were contemplating it, so he continued by saying, "If you want to really appease the other kingdoms, even someone as uncultured as me can see who you should really be sending. I swear that I'll do all that I can for the kingdom if you send the one that you should really be sending to the other kingdoms."

He was even making an appeal at the end to show what he was capable of doing to ensure that he would be able to get out of this alive.

It really was interesting to see how shameless this former General Gardner was.

It was just too bad that he had no clue at all as to what the real situation was.

He was nothing more than a fool dancing on the palm of their hands.

Neither the king or the fourth prince said a thing as they turned to look at me, almost as if they were considering what the former General Gardner said.

All of this gave the former General Gardner more confidence until…

"Are you done playing around?" I suddenly said this to the fourth prince and the king.

The former General Gardner was shocked to hear this, but he was even more shocked when he saw smiles appearing on the faces of the king and the fourth prince.

It was almost as if…they had been playing with him just now by giving him false hope.

The fourth prince said, "Brother, you should know that it's rare that we get a chance to do this. So we have to take advantage of this while we can."

The king nodded in agreement before saying, "Is it that wrong to have a bit of fun?"

There was no response to this other than the shocked looks on the faces of the crowd.

All of them looked at the king and fourth prince with this shocked look, as if they couldn't believe that the two of them would say something like this.

Though it was more the tone of their voice that they were more shocked by…

The way that they talked to Duke Zwein, it was almost as if they were treating him as family.

They had heard that Duke Zwein was engaged to the princess and that there was a wedding being planned, but they had thought that this was nothing more than a marriage of relations. There were even some that thought the relationship between the king and the duke would be tense because of the situation with the wyverns.

With the duke holding all the power over the wyverns, the king would surely have some strong feelings towards him.

But now it doesn't seem to be the case.

Was this just an act or…were they really this close?

The nobles didn't know, but they didn't dare take any risks.

As for me…I knew that they were doing this on purpose.

They were showing their support for me for the future since I would need even more support from the nobles in the future for their plan.

The former General Gardner had been in a daze when he heard this, but then he slammed his fist down on the table in front of him.

Even if he was a coward and a suck up, he was still someone that had spent time in the military, so it wasn't as if he was weak.

When he slammed his fist down, the table that was in front of him split in half and then shattered to pieces.

After slamming his fist down, he said, "You think that you can take me out like this? If I'm going down, I'll take one of you with me."

As soon as his voice fell, both the former General Gardner and his defense attorney charged forward at the jury.

Their targets were…Duke Zwein and the fourth prince.

It seemed that they were planning on sacrificing their lives to take the two of them down.

But before they could do anything, there were cloaked figures that suddenly appeared.

Even if the former General Gardner and his defense attorney had combat experience, that didn't mean that they were strong. They were only strong compared to normal people, but they couldn't take on these cloaked figures.

That was because these cloaked figures were the elite guards that were under the fourth prince.

The moment that they appeared, they took no time at all to subdue the two of them.

They could only lie there on the ground, looking up at the jury in front of them without being able to move a single inch. They were just firmly pressed down on the ground and being restrained.

The only thing that they could do was look up at the fourth prince and me with eyes that were filled with hatred, but I didn't care at all.

From the very beginning, I had been planning on throwing him away like this.

After all, I knew that this situation would come up after the war.

That was why I had let this former General Gardner take the credit for killing the Beirut Kingdom army.

Looking down at him, I said, "You should have learned from your mistakes of the past and just accepted your fate, but you chose to make things worse for yourself."

The former General Gardner bit his lip before saying, "There won't be a good ending for you."

I just said with a shrug, "That is not for you to decide."
