    Chapter 130

    Episode 130

    Olivia bit her lip as tears welled up in her eyes.

    What’s even more unbearable is the fact that she could have prevented Chris’s suffering and death.

    Chris was not the devil’s seed.

    Olivia knew that fact well.

    But I didn’t have the strength to save him.

    If only I had the power.

    No, if I had somehow tried to find out the truth, wouldn’t Chris have been able to live?

    As such thoughts came to her mind, she began to feel endlessly resentful of herself.

    ‘I couldn’t even save the person I treasured the most, so what kind of saint am I?’

    With this mindset, I have been neglecting my duties as a saint, but now it is time to rise again.

    For Chris.

    ‘…I will definitely reveal the truth about my brother.’

    She made a firm resolution.

    Because it was the only thing she could do for the dead Chris.

    “Anyway, as we discussed, I will fully cooperate in solving the Black Death. In return, you must keep your promise to clear your brother’s name.”

    “Don’t worry about that. I will definitely reveal the truth.”

    Chris answered without wavering.

    Anyway, at the end of this incident, all the truth will be revealed.

    “But is that okay?”

    “What do you mean?”

    “I don’t think the rest of the kingdom would easily tolerate you, the princess, cooperating with Mine.”

    Olivia was worried about that too.

    There will be huge opposition.

    “…Still, we have to do something about it.”

    “Hmm.”

    Christian crossed his arms.

    “If you have any trouble, I will help you.”

    “…You’re going to help me? How can you, a mine, make internal decisions for the law?”

    Olivia reacted as if it was nonsense, but Chris smiled faintly.

    “My way. But please understand that it may be a little rough.”

    It was an unknown story.

    * * *

    In this way, a contract was established between the two.

    However, things did not go smoothly.

    It was because of the opposition of the vassals of the legal system.

    “That’s ridiculous!! Her Highness the Princess would join those Mines?!”

    “This can’t be happening!!”

    “We shouldn’t have brought those Mine guys in from the beginning! Let’s chase them out to the Dark Maga right away!!”

    Olivia made a troubled face.

    As expected, there was strong opposition.

    “It’s for the people of Gold Cross. Even though they are mines, they have extensive knowledge of witchcraft, so they will be able to help resolve the situation.”

    But her claim was not accepted.

    “I think the princess is still young and doesn’t know how evil those guys are.”

    “It must be because the princess is so kind that even the minions look upon her with kindness. However, the minions are worse than beasts. They are not trustworthy.”

    Although it may seem like they are insulting Mine, they are actually stories that belittle her by bringing up her youth and immaturity.

    In fact, it’s always been like this.

    ‘I have no power.’

    Although she is revered as a saint who awakened the Holy Blood, she is still young.

    She would step forward to represent the country whenever something happened, but it was just for show, and she had no real power.

    “His Majesty the Pope, who has been in seclusion for a long time receiving revelations from the Holy See, cannot attend this meeting, but he will also oppose it.”

    “That’s right. Please think of how heartbroken His Majesty the King will be when he learns that the princess is with Mine.”

    Olivia bit her lip.

    “Even now, people are falling victim to the Black Death, and are you saying we should just sit back and do nothing just because we don’t like the Mines?”

    “It’s not just for that reason.”

    A person stood up from his seat.

    A tall and handsome man.

    It was Miek, the representative knight of the law kingdom who had clashed with Chris some time ago.

    The Law Nation was not a country that directly took the lead in battles, so its military was weak and strong knights were rare. Miek was a valuable force, like a light for the Law Nation.

    Therefore, it had strong real power even within the court system.

    “We’re doing all this because we’re worried about the princess.”

    Miek strode towards Olivia.

    Then he knelt down on one knee and kissed the back of Olivia’s hand.

    “As one of the princess’s fair knights, I also disagree.”

    Fair Knights.

    It refers to a knight who is the match for a lady.

    Olivia shook his hand coldly.

    “I never gave you a seat on the Fair Knights, Sir Miek. Don’t be so rude to me again.”

    Miek’s face hardened for a moment at the cold rejection.

    ‘This fu*king bitch. How dare you.’

    But I couldn’t reveal my true feelings.

    Because Miek had been thinking of winning her heart and becoming the second-in-command of the law.

    The fact that he acted as a hypocritical knight, which did not suit his constitution, was all due to his lust for power.

    ‘Damn, you sassy bitch. I guess I’ll just go back and de-stress today. I just happened to get some nice ‘stuff’ from the slave trader.’

    Miek smiled eerily to himself as he recalled his secret hideout.

    On the surface, he spoke in a noble manner.

    “My feelings towards you, Princess, are always sincere. Please reconsider your association with those detestable minions.”

    “Please think again!”

    The vassals shouted in unison.

    Olivia bit the flesh inside her mouth.

    It was a strong offer that she could not refuse.

    ‘No. I have to do something about it.’

    While she was in despair, countless people were being sacrificed.

    It was already too late, a situation where he had abandoned his duties as a member of the star clan of the country.

    Above all, she had to cooperate with that man so that Chris could be cleared of his false charges.

    ‘I have to escape the law kingdom secretly. But how?’

    She was not fit to walk alone.

    Wherever I went, I was followed by an escort.

    It was like a watchman restraining her freedom.

    Above all, the knights of the law kingdom were under the control of Miek, so they could not easily escape.

    “I only think about you, Princess. I hope you understand my feelings.”

    But at that time.

    An unexpected voice was heard from outside the conference room.

    “Even dog barking is refreshingly new.”

    “…what?”

    Boom!

    The door to the conference room opened roughly, and the vassals of the law opened their eyes wide at the sight of the person who appeared.

    “Ma, mine?!”

    Thick black hair, bloodshot eyes.

    An arrogant and unlucky impression.

    It was Christian.

    “Where the hell do you think you are, walking with your dirty feet?!”

    “Ah, I am sorry to step into this place where the noble ones of the Dharma Kingdom have gathered, but I have come to tell you something.”

    “What! Get that guy out of here right now…!!!”

    “Stop!! Everyone be quiet!!”

    A sharp scream rang out.

    It was Olivia.

    She looked around fiercely and said to Chris.

    “What brings you here?”

    Chris looked around the conference room.

    “I heard you were arguing because you didn’t trust our minions. So I’ll help you with one thing in the law so you can trust us.”

    “…Help?”

    The vassals of the law were confused and made a fuss.

    “Why are you suddenly offering to help me?”

    “It’s nothing. I just happened to witness a terrible crime taking place in the country. I’ll tell you what it was.”

    The people in the conference room looked at each other.

    Chris’s story is a bit perplexing.

    One elder shouted, as if to tell him to stop talking nonsense.

    “What kind of crime is happening in our country?! Our country is protected by His Majesty the Great Pope and the Holy See!”

    “For such a thing, it was so horrible that I couldn’t believe my eyes. I never thought I would witness such a disgusting sight in the court of law.”

    Olivia asked.

    “…What exactly are you talking about?”

    “This is a case of illegal child slavery and abuse.”

    “…….”

    In an instant, the room became quiet.

    Olivia blinked.

    I didn’t quite understand what Christian meant.

    “Ah… what did you say?”

    “It was a case of illegal child slavery and abuse.”

    “!!”

    The intestines were filled with shock.

    Everyone raised their voices as if it was nonsense.

    “What the heck?!”

    “You bastard!! Are you insulting our country?! How dare you say such a horrible lie with your pierced mouth…!!”

    At that moment, an unexpected person barged in.

    “Everyone, calm down! This person is not lying!”

    It was Count Roy.

    “You are of the Bursen County? Weren’t you watching those mines? And you say it’s not a lie? What do you mean?”

    “It is exactly as I said. That mine’s story is true. I have seen it with my own eyes.”

    “!!”

    Count Roy hurriedly explained the whole story.

    Christian and his party searched the court for clues that might reveal the truth about the curse, and while doing so, they sensed the presence of suspicious black magic, followed it, and witnessed a horrifying sight.

    “…That, that kind of nonsense?”

    The vassals of the law looked incredulous.

    But I couldn’t raise my voice like I did just now.

    Because Count Roy, the heir to the County of Bursen, was not someone to be ignored.

    “Who in our country could do such a terrible thing?”

    “Well, you’ll know for sure when you check it out for yourself.”

    Chris crossed his arms.

    Then he turned his gaze to the man whose face had been pale since earlier.

    “Isn’t that right, Sir Miek?”

    “!!”

    Miek swallowed hard.

    ‘This damn guy. How could he know my secret?’

    Yes, that’s right.

    The horrifying sight Chris discovered was Miek’s secret hideout.

    It was thanks to his knowledge of the future that Chris was able to uncover Miek’s secret so easily.

    ‘It was once a hot topic. That a knight representing the law kingdom was committing such devilish acts behind the scenes.’

    Chris spoke provocatively to Miek, who was stiff and unable to say anything.

    “You’re doing such a horrible thing while wearing human skin. Even our Mine wouldn’t do such a thing. Sir Miek, do you suspect anyone?”

    “…I don’t know.”

    It was when people looked at Miek with puzzled looks at her strange reaction.

    Chris twisted his lips in a mocking laugh.

    “You don’t know? Then you don’t know what this is.”

    “!!”

    It was the emblem worn by the knights of the Law Kingdom.

    It is also a symbol that signifies a top-class knight.

    At this point, only one active knight in the legal profession had downloaded that emblem.

    That’s right, Miek.

    “We found it where the victims were trapped, so shouldn’t we explain why this object was in that place?”

    “…….”

    A deathly silence descended upon the room.

    No one could open their mouths at the shocking and horrific truth.

    Miek’s eyes became bloodshot.

    ‘No! If this continues, I’m finished. I have to fix it somehow!’

    There was only one way.

    “How dare you accuse me of something like this. How detestable of you.”

    One thing that’s fortunate for Miek is that the person who uncovered this was Mine.

    In the law, mines are absolutely evil.

    All of this can be attributed to a conspiracy by that evil Mine.
