117 Parliament, Cresser-style Combat




 --slow.
 That was Deanna's honest impression when she saw her father and brother.
 What was she doing with three wandering victims who were about to be killed?
 I'm not sure what I'm going to do, but I'm going to do it. ...... It's not just okay.

 In the face of hundreds of eyes, Dualis and Edward unhesitatingly step forward. They easily walked past the witness stand and bowed directly under the juke.

I'm sorry I'm late. It's taken us a little while to find the people who want to destroy us.
"No problem. I knew you would come sooner or later, Count Clester.

 The people gathered here could not hide their surprise at the King's unconcerned response to the Count of Crestor, who is known as the Demon King.
I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

It was a very useful way of stalling until the Count arrived.
"Yes, it was. Did she get it right?
More than well. I didn't think it was unplanned. You must be very proud of your daughter.
She's not ready yet. --Diana.

The voice of the head of the family called out to me, and my back arched reflexively. I made eye contact with my father and opened my mouth.

"It's been a long time, Father. I apologize for the height.
That's what parliament is for. You don't need to worry about the physical height. ...... You've made quite a splash, haven't you?
...... I didn't mean to do that.
I've always told you that's who we are. --I know you're not happy, but shut up from here. Crestor has the right to judge this case.

 The king, the vizier, Deanna, and everyone else in the room except for Edward were raptured by Dualis' declaration. If an ordinary nobleman had said, "We have the right to judge," while the daughter of the family was sitting in the "defendant's seat," he would have been immediately condemned. The fact that this seemingly insane line was greeted with a frightening silence is probably the reason why the Demon Lord is the Demon Lord.
Looking at the three witnesses with painful eyes, Dualis called out to the knight guarding the door of the council, "Hey.

Bring me a chair. If we don't get those three people to sit down, we won't last until the end of the session.
What are you doing?
"Shut up, Lord Mercia. How dare you speak in front of my family's most prized possession? Just putting Deanna in that seat was an act worthy of death. --Don't think you'll die easy.

 The Dualis is now completely out of control. In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. He's being cared for by those around him, and I'd like to think that his life is intact.
 While Deanna was worrying about the grandfather nobleman, the three witnesses who had been standing still settled into their chairs, and Dualis looked up at the juke again.

"Well, Your Majesty. "Now, Your Majesty, will you allow us, the Cresters, to take charge of this situation?
There's nothing to forgive or not forgive. Fools who really think they can survive by harming the Countess of Crestor are a detriment to the kingdom. Normally, I should be the one to condemn him, but...
"Please leave this to us. Your Majesty has provided us with such a meaningful opportunity. It's about time the whole kingdom reaffirmed what would happen if we messed with the Cresta.
"Well, that sounds like an interesting show. Well, that sounds like an interesting show. I guess I'll just have to be the king and watch.
Yes, Your Majesty. A trifle like this doesn't require your presence. You can save time by thinking of new personnel while you're watching.
Thank you for your concern. I'll defer to the Count this time. --Make your move.

 What a farce! I'm sure you'll be pleased to hear that. ...... No, I know it's a necessary part of the story.
In the event that you're not sure what you're looking for, you'll be able to find a lot more information on the web. It's an exchange that can't be missed in order to wield the machete of total power while protecting royal authority.
 But... There's Juke, who is pretending to be the king with a smile on his face, but is shying away from Douris, who is in full-on anger mode, and there's Juke, who is cheering him on from behind Douris, saying, "Go for it! Edward is cheering him on from behind. The first thing that comes to mind is the word "farce. Duarisse, who is really angry and yet can enjoy the lively interaction between the two young people, is, as usual, too deep.
 At any rate, it seems that the first meeting (first contact) between the brother and Juke went off somewhat peacefully, and supported by the positive aspects of the "farce", Diana looks on below with a blank expression on the surface. --Just now, Dualis had just glared at the three men on the witness stand, Marquis Harlai, Knight Eunos, and Marquis Merces, with a vicious smile.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry I let you linger for so long without knowing that you were awaiting your doom.
What are you doing at ......?
There are some others who want to lose their jobs, their titles, their lands, their fortunes, everything. Don't worry, I'll grant all your wishes.

 I could see a few people in the chancellor's and senator's seats had an "ah-ha" look on their faces. Letitia's father, Count Keel, spread out a piece of paper in his seat at his own pace, which was really impressive. I think he was checking the map of the kingdom, the location of the Harai and Merces territories. ...... As expected of Leticia's father, he works fast.



Well, let's start at the beginning. --"Lord Hallai.
"You are rude! You're a count, and yet...
You're a count, but you're not a count. - The Harley family was founded 250 years ago. Incidentally, the Cresta family has had several proposals for promotion. It's just that they refuse to be a marquess because it would make them stand out, but you have to understand that they're practically outclassed in terms of history and family status.

 The story of Dualis is not an exaggeration, it can be confirmed by looking at the documents, and it has been handed down as a warning to some families. In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. ...... mainly in the direction of minimizing signs, as is the case now.
 In the event that you're not sure what you're looking for, there are a few things you can do. If you're not sure what to do, you can always ask for help.

So, what was it? I'm sure you'll be able to understand that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this. --I'm sure you've got a lot of questions, but I'm not sure how you can be so shameless in front of people who have endured the unreasonableness of spring and summer for the sake of the kingdom and have never given up on the royal family. Honestly, I bow to your restraint in not beating this guy to a pulp.

 While saying this, Dualis really bowed his head to the seat on the left of him. The Evil Lord's actions have surprised some and brought tears to the eyes of others. For the emerging nobility, not all of whom have given their daughters to the court because they wanted to ......, the fact that the father of the Red Rose understands everything will be a kind of support and hope.

If you want to hit this guy, please wait a little longer. When all is said and done, the Marquesses of Harlai will be gone. Then you can hit him without hesitation and declare it 'just retribution'.
You're making things up.
Which one of you is making things up? Did you have your daughter spy on the Red Roses? --I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot of people who'll be able to help you out. The palace guards are all set. You can always come here and testify that it is impossible for the Marquise of Hurley to track the movements of the Red Rose Faction.
"Hey, hey, .......
As for your daughter tormenting Miss Callerd, Miss Callerd's maidservant and friends will take the stand if necessary. --"And who's to say that a kind-hearted girl would be concerned about the harm done to her by a lady of the house?

 Okay, my father scares me. I'd heard about him from Sirius, but when he's in his element, Dualis is scarier than anyone Deanna's ever known. She's scary in a different way than my mother.
 I'm not sure what to make of this, but I think it's a good idea. I'm not sure if ...... I'm going to be okay, but I've got a long way to go.

In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. --You're next, the second son of Eunos. You're too old to be bothering your brother.

 I'm sure you're not the only one.

"Viscount Eunos. I'm sorry, but I won't go easy on you.
"Thank you for your concern, Count Crestor. I'm ashamed to say that my brother grew up in a world where my mother pitied him because he was the second son who couldn't inherit a title, and she spoiled him. Even at that age, he is like an infant, unable to distinguish between right and wrong. I tried to correct him somehow, but it was inevitable. I will take the blame for my lack of supervision and give up my family's title.
Do you have enough food to feed the whole family? I won't let him off the hook for mocking Deanna, but it's not our intention to leave your wife and children in the lurch.
"Don't be alarmed, Count Crestor. Don't worry, Earl Crestor. Viscount Eunos's good heart and flexible thinking that is not limited by conventional wisdom are what the kingdom needs in the future. I was just soliciting him to work for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs if possible.

 The Marquis of Stresia interrupted with a very dandy-like voice that did not match his stern face. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
 You can find a lot of people who are looking for the best in the marketplace. I think he's the Marquis of Eustace, Yolanda's father. The way he laughs is just like him.

(What can I say? It's just like your family.)

 I'm not sure what to make of this. ...... At any rate, Count Kiel should stop drawing things on the map and inventing new distribution routes, no matter how much harmony he sees in the plan. Mainly because of the atmosphere of the Congress.

 This is probably because the backing of the Eunos barons has become clear. I could clearly see that the two words "Reserved" had disappeared from Dualis. I'll get Uncle Volz some herbal tea for his stomach later,......, Deanna thought secretly.
 The eyes of a bird of prey caught the Knight of Eunos.

I've been informed of most of your behavior. I'm not sure what's in that head of yours. You've been warned by Deanna, and yet you've been involving your men in your misdeeds. I can't help you.
What?
If you're the daughter of a family that's always been rumored to be evil, did you think that a frame-up or two wouldn't change that? I'll tell you something, we don't leave harmless rumors alone, but we don't abandon our daughter who is actually dying. --I'm sure you've looked into what happened to those idiots who messed with Clester in the past, and then you've given us all the verbal abuse we can handle.
"Shut up. The evil, the evil is you, Cresta!
Whether we're evil or not is irrelevant right now. I'm talking about your breaking the rules, your breaking the law.

 Jade eyes glowing coldly. A horrible rage leaked out of Dualis.



I've been wondering that since I heard about the kidnapping. Miss Callerd is a very disciplined young lady who scolds her maidservant for overstepping her authority and immediately decides that she will take the blame if she is found guilty of negligent supervision. If you want to kidnap her, you'll have to sneak into the palace at the very least. There's no way Miss Callerd would break the rules and go outside the palace.
What about it?
What about it? Do I have to explain it to you in detail? In order to sneak into the palace, you need to get past the palace knights who are constantly watching the outside of the palace. This is a great way to make sure you are getting the most out of your time and money.
What is ......
The palace is not a place where several roughnecks can sneak in with the help of Bell. It's a good idea to take a look at the information on the web and see if you can find anything that might help you.
"The duty records are here. I was thinking, why don't you at least cheat on the records? The knights whose names are here are being collected in a room by the king's guards. Do you want to testify?

 From behind my father, Edward added with a very, very happy smile. The record of duty, held up with a soft smile, was taken from a mobile cart. I was expecting ...... that pile, the evidence.
 The knight of Eunos, who was shot by Dualis, must have felt his deception being stripped away. He's blue-faced and trembling.

"Miss Callerd's abduction would not have been possible without the help of your squad guarding the palace gates that night. Or was it? What do you think, that all the guards were absent at the time of the kidnapping, and that Bell escorted the kidnappers out of the palace, and then caught her at the right moment?
No, that's .......
You have two more breaches of discipline. The first is that you did not inform the military of the importance of the kidnapping of the concubine as soon as you got her testimony, which greatly delayed the initial maneuvering of the search. Although a concubine is not strictly speaking counted as royalty, she is treated as such. Not giving top priority to the search for them is enough to disqualify you from leading a small band of royal palace knights.

 Dualis is a "wise man" who boasts one of the greatest minds of all time and is recognized by everyone in his family. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but it's a good thing. The knights of Eunos, for whom 'idiot' had almost become a byword, would certainly be no match for him.

Secondly, he raided the royal palace, the private space of the royal family, without the king's permission and captured one of his aides. You knew that this was a breach of discipline and a serious violation of the law, didn't you?
"Oh, there are certain procedures that are omitted in the affairs of the kingdom.
It is only when the crime of the person to be captured is obvious to everyone, there is solid physical evidence, and if the person is left unattended, there is a very high probability that a life-threatening incident will occur. In the event that you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
"The king's bodyguard and some of his officials had previously raided the forbidden palace to expose the crimes of Master Maris!
"Former Matriarch Maris... Are you fighting with the current High Priestess Magnum? Have some decency. --And? The king's bodyguard is supposed to protect and assist the king, so they're allowed access to the palace. ...... If I remember correctly, the former headmistress was given permission to enter the palace.
Nonsense!
How was it, Your Majesty?
Oh, they were all working under my orders. The guards, the officers, everything.

 Edward asked lightly, and Juke nodded easily. It's a very natural exchange, because it's true.
 By the way, even the Prime Minister didn't know that Juke was involved from the beginning to the end of the execution phase of the "Operation to Remove the Former High Commissioner Maris"," he thought, looking at the chair. In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. I'm sure you'll be able to find something that will work for you. ...... In addition to herbal teas that are gentle on the stomach, I'll also give you some herbal teas that will help you sleep better.
 In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. I see, so you thought that the capture of former High Priestess Maris had been authorized by the King to follow the lead of some officials. You thought that if Maris was forgiven, then Diana's crimes would be forgiven as well, as long as the king acknowledged them.

That's just plain stupid.

 Duarisse spoke for Deanna's inner thoughts.

Even if the capture of Maris had been the work of a few officials, it would have been a different situation. Her guilt and the mountain of evidence were undoubtedly 'clear for all to see'. I heard that the people who stormed into the King's office to protect her lasted less than five minutes.
That's right. The king's bodyguards laughed as they said it was a pleasant comeback.
The king's bodyguards laughed and said it was a pleasant revenge. Am I the only one who thinks it's doubtful that we'll even get a rebuttal, let alone a blowback, at this point?

 Quite a few of the nobles in the council chamber nodded deeply at Dualis' words. In the event that you've got a lot of money, you'll be able to use it to buy a lot of things. It's normal, if not a piece of cake, for them to bring in a few hundred nobles and paint the place their own colors.

"Knight Eunos. You are a knight who protects the royal palace and the royal family, yet you were complicit in the kidnapping of his wife and kidnapped his innocent daughter by entering the king's private palace without permission.
No! The Red Rose was disturbing the favored princess, Shayla Callerd! No! The Red Rose wanted the Princess and Shayla Callerd out of the way! The three of them acted on the Red Rose's will. The evil is the Red Rose!
"How many times do I have to say it? I don't care about other people's evil. I have a problem with your actions. --You may want to say that some extrajudicial measures are necessary to destroy evil, but unfortunately, no matter the cause, an offense is an offense, and you're a traitor if you go too far.

 The Marquis of Stresia nodded repeatedly at Dualis' words. It's a good idea to take a look at a few of the things that are available in the marketplace.
 I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea.

"Well. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.



I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea. The Marquis of Merces unconsciously took exactly three steps backward.

The assistant deputy minister of the Ministry of the Interior is also an assistant deputy minister of the Ministry of the Interior, who skips the permission of the king and the prime minister and petitions for capital punishment. The assistant director-general of the conciliation bureau, who accepts it easily, is far more crazy. The conciliation bureau is a specialized agency that decides the awards and punishments of the nobility. The assistant director of the Bureau of Conciliation is so recklessly ignoring the law. What are you thinking?
And of course, provisional permission!
Do you even understand what a problem it is to 'tentatively' authorize a beheading as a capital punishment? You can't get your life back once you've taken it. Why is it that in the penal code of the Kingdom of Ergeland, the maximum penalty is double or triple fettered to the point of persistence? It's because successive sovereigns have taken it very seriously that capital punishment for taking a life, no matter what the crime or how irredeemably evil the condemned person is, is 'murder' by the state.

 There is no such thing as a clean throne. There is no such thing as a clean throne. The kingdom was founded in a time of war, and after countless battles and tens of thousands of lives were buried, the Kingdom of Ergeland achieved the unification of the peninsula. Even after the unification, he nipped the seeds of rebellion and discontent in the bud.
 Every time a life is taken, the king takes it back. He stood by those lives and his sins for the rest of his life. It is well known that King Asto, the King of Unification, since his first battle at the age of twelve, prayed every morning and every night for the rest of his life, not to the gods, but to the lives he had taken, and vowed to build a peaceful world.
 The lives taken by the kings of the past are the foundation of the present. The throne that Juke bears is as heavy as the lives of the people living in the present and the many lives he has taken in the past.

 The light in Dualis's eyes is the sharpest I've ever seen, and even Deanna, who is only watching from the edge, feels as if she is about to be pierced.

I'm not blaming you. I don't blame you. She would have been a hindrance in a different position. --But then do it yourself, with grace. Don't let the government kill you for using the government's money for your personal gain.
No, no, no.
What's the difference? There's no proof that the Red Rose was involved in the kidnapping of your favorite princess. How can you be so reasonable as to authorize the use of a guillotine in that situation?

 He paused to catch his breath.
 Dualis looked again at the three men who had come out to be beaten to a pulp (as it turned out).

You can easily be expelled from the palace just by proving that you have violated the law so far. I'm sorry, but trying to kill Crestor's daughter is not a light enough offense to get away with just stripping you of your job. --Edward.
"Yes, father. You need to take a break. It's been a long time since we talked that much, hasn't it?

 Edward. ...... It's scary, to say the least.
 I'm sure you'll be glad to know that I'm not the only one who's a bit of a jerk.
 With a rattle, Edward pulled the cart to a more prominent position.

"Well, ladies and gentlemen. Now, ladies and gentlemen, I'm sure you know from my father's story that the three of you have been lying to His Majesty with impunity. --The question now is, 'What is the truth behind the kidnapping of Miss Shayla Callerd after all? Right?

 In a different way than my father, my brother is also very good at attracting attention. It was an easy way to get people's attention, so they left Dualis and moved on to Edward.

In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. We've been working on the timeline of Miss Callerd's kidnapping to prove the innocence of Diana, the youngest daughter of the family. ...... However, there are still some unanswered questions, as the safety of the young lady is still unknown.
"Sir Edward. Is Miss Callerd safe?

 The Marquis of Stresia asked. But that question would be of interest to many of the nobles present.
 Edward tilted his head to the side with a wry smile.

The most capable search party in the kingdom is currently doing its best. I'm sure they'll be fine.
"I see. ......
I'll do everything I can to make sure your daughter is safe and sound and that the truth comes out. --First, gather the perpetrators of the kidnapping. I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's had to deal with this.
Who put up the posters?
The owner of the tavern told me that it was Lino Tandor and Oleg Magentis. ...... By the way, here's the poster. In the event that you've been selected, you'll get five Elle gold coins in advance, and another five if you complete the request. The advance alone is enough to make a profit, so the test of skill was quite heated.

 I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. Not caring about the buzzing of the nobles, Edward continued.

I'm sure that Rhino and Oleg were the two who gathered the kidnappers and planned the kidnapping. ...... If possible, I would have liked to hear from them why they thought that way.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this in the future. I'm sure you'll be able to find something that will help you. ...... The patterns of man-eating lore, the horror of it all, is palpable.
 I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I think it's a good idea.

The one who brought the kidnappers to the interior of the palace is Bell and the Knight Eunos there. --The fact that the kidnappers were brought inside the palace by Belle and the Eunos knights there shows that Miss Callerd's abduction was not motivated solely by the slogan 'for the sake of the Red Rose'.
No, I wasn't!
"Shut up, old man, the whole situation has been broken by your poor group. "As long as Shayla Callerd and Deanna Crester are around, the palace will continue to be in turmoil. It's in the best interest of the country in the long run to get rid of them while we can. You are a knight with excellent judgment and memory who is unlucky enough to have been assigned to you. In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the web site.
"That's ridiculous. ...... Who?
"What do you want me to know about that when there's nothing but ruin waiting for me? --And here's the record.



 Edward haphazardly opened the ubiquitous booklet-type ledger.

I won't go into the details, but... According to the record, on the night of the Star-Gazing Banquet, just after midnight when the banquet had ended, Rhino and Oleg drove the six kidnappers in a horse-drawn carriage to the back gate of the royal palace, and Belle, who was on her way, was in charge of guiding them from there. The route had been designated in advance, and in a very short time, the kidnappers returned with a human being in a rag bag. Six of the kidnappers and nine others, including Miss Callerd, Rhino and Oleg, left in a carriage. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for before you buy.
"So the Eunos Knights dared to miss the kidnapping?
If Rhino and Oleg were the perpetrators, it means that the Eunos Knights were the ones who helped the royal court. If the perpetrators were Rhino and Oleg, it means that the collaborators from the royal court were the Eunos knights, but the perpetrators probably didn't recognize the collaborators since they were hiding until the carriage left. --From this composition, we can infer that the Eunos Knight was in control of the kidnapping plan.
How can you be so sure?

 In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the web site. I'm not sure what to make of this.
 In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. There's no need to let Belle escape from the palace. It would be safer and more reliable to have the palace knights guide her through the outer court and have Bel take over at the entrance to the inner court. In fact, Belle was initially interrogated on the pretext that she was a maid who was supposed to be working in the inner palace, but was found near the gate of the outer palace. In the event that you are a knight of the palace and you know that you have a collaborator in a position where you can control the security of the palace, you would not risk being found out and have your lady-in-waiting walk back and forth to the edge of the outer palace. --above all,

 In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the site, you can contact us at the following URL.

In the event that you've got any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. I dare them to commit the crime of kidnapping, capture them, and make them reveal the name of the Red Rose in any way they can. Based on that, frame the innocent Red Rose for the kidnapping of Miss Callerd, and execute her. That was the plan, wasn't it?

 It's a good thing you're an idiot.
 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm not sure what to say. I'm not sure what you're talking about. One of my subordinates said to Bell, "Isn't that too much of a leap? Then we can use that as a basis to bury that unworthy woman forever! I heard that he replied. At that moment, your clever subordinate decided to wrap this up. He said it would be ridiculous for him to lose his job to such a small commander.
Hey, hey, hey, ......!
"Well, it also shows the caliber of those old men who can only have 'pawns' like you. In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the web site.

 The complexion of some of the people who had been looking at Edward with a pained expression instantly turned roughly blue.
 The jade eyes glowed gold for a moment, reflecting the light coming through the skylight.

"Do you understand me now? The kidnapping of Miss Shayla Callerd was merely a set-up by those who planned to kill the Red Rose to give them a reason to do so. The perpetrators were probably being manipulated in some unusual way. If you think about it, this tragic figure makes sense.

 All the nobles in the assembly nodded their heads in agreement. The evidence and persuasiveness of this theory is far more convincing than that of the Red Rose mastermind theory, which lacks evidence.
 Edward turned around and faced Juke, who had turned his back on him until then.

"Your Majesty. You kidnapped your wife, Shayla Callerd, and placed the blame on my sister Deanna, in order to erase her and her two innocent daughters. I know it is a terrible thing for the royal family and the kingdom.
"...... Oh. That's right.
As for you...
That's a stretch! It's an excuse! It's a trap by Clester!

 I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I've seen it before.
 The Marquis of Merces suddenly started screaming, pointing at Edward as he was about to close.
 He grabbed Edward by the chest and yelled at him.

"Evidence? That's what you and Crester are. How do you know it's not false evidence against you and Krester?
Do you want me to do a handwriting analysis at ......?
That will not prove anything! It's a matter of getting the traitor's kidnappers beforehand! Do you have any physical evidence that the Eunos knights missed the kidnappers?
"The circumstantial evidence is quite good. I can't help it if these records and the knights involved are suspected. Even if all of them testified to the complicity of the Eunos knights, you, of all people, would just say, "They must be talking to each other! I'm sure you're just trying to get away with it.

 In the event that you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
 However, even though the Marquis of Merces thought he was shaking Edward, the person being grabbed didn't move an inch, so the Marquis was in an interesting situation where he was shaking and swaying all by himself.
 In the event that you've got any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with your loved ones, you'll be able to contact us at our own web site. I hope my brother didn't do anything out of the ordinary that would stop the heart of a ...... greenhouse juke.

 After some time together, Edward seems to have grown tired of it. He grabbed back the arm grabbing his chest and pulled him down to the floor in one swift motion. Even Deanna couldn't keep up with the small movements. I've never seen this type before, but I wonder where she learned it.
 Dusting himself off, Edward glanced at the palace knight beside him.

It was self-defense, right?
I'm sure you're right. ...... Um...
I'm sure you're right. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. If he comes at me again, I'll get permission from His Majesty to shut him up.
...... Oh, yeah, suit yourself.



 Deanna felt like apologizing to Juke for giving him permission before he even asked. His attitude was definitely that of a victim of his brother's insanity.
 As for the Marquis of Merces, who was the victim of self-defense, well... The Marquis of Merces, who was the victim of self-defense, is still trying to get up, shaking his head.

"I don't care what anyone says. There is no proof that the Red Rose was not involved in the kidnapping of Shayla Callerd. If you can't prove she wasn't involved, you can't complain about her guilt!
The only way to prove innocence is to have an alibi. The only way to prove your innocence is to have an alibi.
"If you want to save her... --If you want to save that woman, you have to show me proof of her innocence!

 The Marquis of Merces got up and shouted as if he had won.
 At that moment.

"You want me to show you proof that Master Diana had nothing to do with my abduction?

 In an instant, the dainty voice transformed the place into an astonishing silence.
 The main doors of the chamber were thrown wide open.
 On the other side of the room, the daughters of the court gathered, with Shayla in the lead.
