Reject me, you damn woman.

Like a poisonous scorpion that has hidden its wildness all year round, it finally reveals its hidden stingers after getting the opportunity.

A look of resentment flashed across the prince's eyes:

"We have been hiding our edge for a long time, and we are going to show it now. It is time to let the people of this capital feel our pain!"

"Those who look down on me will have to pay the price!"

At this moment, as if in response to his words, the first crystal suddenly lit up. Zervis frowned and picked up the crystal:

"what's up?"

The timid voice of the head of the Chamber of Commerce came from the crystal:

"Your Highness, this is bad. The Chamber of Commerce that was originally cooperating with us suddenly terminated all cooperation with us for no reason!"

"what?"

Xevus frowned, but before he could say anything else, the second crystal immediately lit up. It was a gray crystal that led to the shadow world.

"What's wrong with you?"

The prince gritted his teeth.

The voice coming out of the crystal was not the voice of his subordinate who liked to smile darkly, but a majestic female voice:

"Heretic, judgment is coming!"

After saying that, a blazing white light suddenly burst out from inside the crystal, directly destroying the crystal. The fragments of the exploded crystal brushed past Zevis' ear, leaving a trail of blood.

The look of the prince who was arrogant and ready to show his prowess in the last second finally changed, and two important strongholds were taken down one after another.

"Damn it, what's going on!"

Unlike the prince's panic, the man in black robe remained silent. This was just the beginning. Then, in the heart-pounding silence, all the crystals on the table lit up one after another.

........

At the same time, next to the Black Clinic, Lin En was having a final conversation with the person in the communication crystal:

"Thank you for your help, Your Highness Hilteria."

"Haha, there's nothing to thank for."

The proud voice of the Third Princess came from the crystal:

"I know my ambitious brothers as well as I know babies in loincloths hiding their little acorns, but after helping you, you said you wouldn't let me down and would show me something interesting."

"It's natural."

“Then I’ll keep looking forward to it.”

After this crystal was hung up, the other two crystals lit up almost at the same time, one black and one pure white. Two voices sounded almost at the same time:

"Brother Lin, I have done what you asked me to do~"

Afterwards, the owners of the two crystals froze for a moment, and then angrily accused each other:

"Why is this heretic/filthy nun here too?"

Lin En gently advised the owners of the two crystals, thanked them for their help, and after both were satisfied, he hung up the phone leisurely.

After a series of operations, a sharp light flashed in Lin En's eyes.

Your Highness Zevis, are you saying that you want me to die alone in this city after losing everything?

In that case, I will grant you the grace to die in the presence of the crowd and in their gazes.

However, Lynn never likes to talk big.

On the side, Elena, who was worried just now, was stunned.

As for Historia, she had long since stopped crying and feeling confused.

Because she found that her worries seemed unnecessary.

There is no need to be sad for a moment because of my letting the wolf into the house, which may cause the Rose City to change its name.

Because Her Royal Highness just discovered that, before she knew it, the person in charge of this magnificent Rose City seemed to have been named Norton for a long time...

Chapter 199: Let the trial begin

This year, the first snow in Rose City seems to have fallen earlier than in previous years, as if foreshadowing a cold and cruel winter.

No one could have imagined that the one who would kick off the Imperial Election would be neither His Highness Berens, who seemed to have been born with a destiny, nor His Highness Hilteria, who never concealed her desires and power, but the most introverted and gentle Fifth Prince Zevis, and the Sixth Princess Historia, who was recognized as being there to make up the numbers and refused to participate, causing the Imperial Election to be postponed indefinitely.

At the beginning, almost everyone thought that this completely unequal duel would be one-sided. After all, no matter how the Fifth Prince tried to keep a low profile, he still had a huge advantage over the Purple Gold Flower student, Historia.

But when the showdown really began, everyone realized that it was indeed one-sided, but the one-sided object was a little bit wrong.

The power secretly wielded by the Fifth Prince was beyond everyone's imagination. Almost overnight, several chambers of commerce, factories, and even some gangs or gray industries such as red-light districts announced their allegiance. Everyone was shocked by the prince's forbearance and determination.

Before this, no one could have imagined that this prince who loved poetry, opera and art could be so good at fighting and at hiding his weaknesses. If the imperial election really reached the final stage when everyone was exhausted, and this fifth prince made his debut and elegantly revealed his cards, what a terrifying scene that would be.

In a sense, all the crown princes had to thank Historia for forcing the scorpion to reveal itself.

As a result, no one is optimistic about his opponent.

After all, His Highness Historia's only asset is the villa known as the "palace", and his only loyal subordinates are probably the family living in the villa.

But soon, Historia told everyone what she had.

Connections!

No one expected that when the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Princess went to war, the first shot was fired by their common sister, the Third Princess Hilteria.

The iron-fisted princess, who controls half of Rose City, loudly declared that she would support her sister, and easily countered the operations of all the industries of the Fifth Prince. She also threatened that whoever helped Zevis at this time would be her enemy. This completely silenced some of the dignitaries who were still eager to try.

No one wants to offend this crazy princess who has the title of uncrowned queen.

In fact, strictly speaking, it is absolutely not allowed for the crown princes to openly fight each other before the imperial election begins.

But surprisingly, the eldest princess Hedwig, who was a witness to the royal election, did not step forward to mediate and stop the conflict between her younger brothers and sisters, but acquiesced to everything, which puzzled many people.

As for the church as the arbitrator?

Forget it, the church is taking sides, that's fine.

The elite Hound Sisters attacked continuously. Although there were only five of them, strictly speaking, the damage they caused to Zevis's side was much more terrifying than that of Hilteria.

Because all the destroyed by the Hound Sisters were living combat forces, at this time of year, the value of a few extraordinary people might be greater than that of a brothel in the red-light district.

As for the onlookers who were curious about the reason why the Hound Sisters were so blatant in taking sides, the answers they got were unusually consistent: How dare you interfere in the trial of heretics?

Do you want to eat the holy light of the nuns? !

I will severely judge and kill you, you little heretic!

Tell you to talk too much, tell you to talk too much!

The heresy war has always been a taboo for the Church, and no matter how blind a person is, he would dare to cause trouble for himself in this matter.

However, the Church itself did not express any objection to this matter. Could it be that these crazy women are serious about this?

The fifth prince...hiss!

As more and more outrageous rumors emerged, the situation suddenly became clear.

Some people seem to be still struggling with all their might, and can even show off their cards one after another, but in fact they are just like a candle in the wind.

Because this is not a glorious duel between crown princes, but a righteous group fight.

Although the Fifth Prince's side continued to resist tenaciously and no one could do anything to him in a short period of time, everyone knew in their hearts that this battle between brother and sister was over.

At this time in a secret base in Rose City, the fifth prince Zevis was sitting dejectedly on a chair.

It had been less than a week since the war with Historia, and yet, this once elegant prince seemed to have aged twenty years.

His beard was untidy, his once smooth hair was messy, and his eyes were bloodshot with scarlet and fatigue.

Everything that happened in the past few days seemed like a dream to the prince.

He has worked hard, kept a low profile, and pretended to be elegant and non-confrontational for so many years despite the cold eyes of others, just to catch everyone off guard when the final war comes.

However, no one expected that before he could amaze his brothers and sisters, the prince from another powerful empire far away would first give him a heavy slap in the face, teaching Xervis a severe lesson.

It seems that there is no point in being capable and good at fighting.

Opposite him, a man in a black robe with a different body was sitting silently opposite him. This time, the man in the black robe used a rather petite body, which seemed to be a girl of seven or eight years old. Her bare white feet could not even reach the ground on the chair and were swaying back and forth.

The black-robed man was standing next to his guard, who was casually looking at the fallen nun in the room, now the witch Serena.

"The result is clear, Your Highness Zevis, you lose."

Finally, the man in black robe spoke. His petite and tender voice was matched with a quiet and low tone that did not match his temperament, as if he was delivering the final judgment to the prince in front of him.

"I lost?"

The prince raised his head wearily.

It seems that he still can't believe this fact.

"Are you going to give up on me?"

he asked.

"Won't,"

The black-robed man answered straightforwardly.

"We have invested so much in you. We will not give up on you easily. Our people will help you escape from this imperial capital."

After hearing the words of the man in black robe, Zevis felt a little relieved.

Temporary failure is nothing. As long as you can make a comeback, a turnaround is still possible!

However, you should also show more sincerity in order to gain more support.

"now it's right,"

Zevis tried hard to force a smile.

"Then it's settled. However, please come back to see me tomorrow night. Before you leave, please let me do one last thing to prove my worth a little more."

"what are you up to?"

The man in black robe asked.

"I just left a gift for that bastard before I left, so that she can feel my pain."

The prince smiled maliciously.

"It's up to you, but we won't help you anymore."

The black robe is humane.

"It doesn't matter,"

Zevis sneered and looked at a remote coordinate on the map of Rose City.

"I still have some loyal subordinates, that's enough."

The man in black robe said nothing, nodded, and turned to leave.

The bored witch following behind her furtively observed the man in black robe before leaving the house. Suddenly, she flipped her hand, took out a communication crystal from her storage ring, and placed it in front of Zevis.

"What is this for?"

Xevis frowned.

"Just another possibility,"

The witch Serena smiled lightly.

"If His Highness Zevis needs anything, you can contact my boss... No, my master."

"Owner?"

Xervis sneered.

"You don't seem very loyal to your organization, do you?"

"That's how it is,"

Serena shrugged.

"My organization and I have an employment relationship. You can't force a witch without credibility to work for only one person. And you, Your Highness, the same goes for you. You also have another choice."
