SPMB - Chapter 68

My Body has Been Possessed By Someone

Yes, it will. From Sylvien's perspective, it won't be a very difficult trial.

'Cassil has committed too many sins. Many nobles will rebel against this incident, and Silvien will be able to increase that opposition several times if she puts her mind to it.'

Duke Valentino, if he had his way, all the nobles would sign the petition.

'And because you are strong."

If Sylvien decides to attack Cassil and defend Valentino, he will do it with terrifying perfection. So it must be easy. A trial like this would be like a rock stuck at his feet. It blocks his path, but he can always remove it if he applies force.

A bitter smile came out. For her, risking her life was all it took for him. 

"Then please understand that we are leaving tomorrow."

"Yes."

"You can just go and have a look."

Kanna bowed in greeting and then stood up. As she grabbed the doorknob of the room.

"Miss Kanna." 

Stop. Her movements stopped. A cold laugh was heard from behind her.

"Miss Kanna is really interesting." 

Gulp. 

Kanna swallowed. She tried to sound as carefree as possible.

"What?"

But there was no answer. Kanna, who stayed for a while, left the room. Fortunately, Sylvien didn't say anything.

'I thought I got caught...'

Kanna swept her heart away. The Empress was used to get to the bottom of this matter.

'Could it be that you noticed?'

***

"Father, it's unfair!"

Cassil cried out and grabbed the Emperor's arm.

"It's unfair! Why should I be put on trial, why!" 

"Let go of this."

The Emperor suppressed his anger. However, as if it was difficult, there was anger in his voice.

"I told you to let go of this, Cassil."

"Father!"

Bubbling. 

The Emperor's anger boils. He glared at Cassil with fierce eyes.

"Ah, father.."

Cassil flinched, shaking his shoulders. When he saw that, his heart weakened. It was a face that looked exactly like himself.

"You crossed the line, Cassil."

"Father..." 

"The reason it has been possible to cover up what you have done so far is because it was done against a family with little power. However," 

However, as he continued speaking, his anger flared up again. 

"You messed with the Valentino family." 

"Father... Well. I  didn't know she was Valentino's."

"It doesn't matter!" 

Boom boom. 

The Emperor's wrath echoed throughout the room. Cassil trembled from the strong energy. 

"What's important is you! You we re trying to hunt her down! Valentino's hostess!"

"Yes... But!"

Cassil protested, clenching his fist.

"Oh, anyway, isn't she like a scarecrow? She was looked down upon by both Valentino and Addis..."

"You ugly guy!!"

The Emperor really wanted to hit Cassil. He never thought his son would be such an idiot!

"All the nobles found out that you did that! The nobles who hated you even though they didn't!"

"..."

"Do you think they care who Kanna is? What matters is the cause! The justification for trying to harm a young woman from a great noble family, even while in exile!"

"..."

"You gave them a reason to harm you!"

The Emperor grabbed Cassil by the collar. He dragged his body and threw him on the table in his office.

 "Look! This is the petition submitted by the nobles!"

Paper documents piled up like a mountain. Cassil looked up blankly. No nobles have submitted petitions!"

The Emperor truly felt a thousand years older. His shoulders slumped. His head hurt. All the nobles wanted his punishment. Even the nobles who had favor with Queen Theresa and her children Argon and Lilien did so.

'Because in their view, it would be more helpful for Cassil to be gone.'

The power of the Empress, the power of the concubine, and the power of the Emperor. Everyone came together and demanded that Cassil be severely punished. The nobles rose up!

"What about the Marquis of Kranz? Doesn't the Marquis have a close relationship with my mother and, in other words, Brother Argon? The Marquis of Kranz can persuade the nobles..." 

"Marquis Kranz wants to execute you."

"..."

"He advised me that only if I completely cut you off would there be no repercussions for Argon."

Cassil's face turned red.

Execution? Death penalty?

"What did I do..."

"What have you done?" The Emperor laughed without realizing it. It's so absurd. 

"Do you know how many noble ladies you have raped?"

Probably dozens.

"Did you know that more than half of them committed suicide?" 

"Ha, Isn't it the Korean-American family?"

"Son, when rainwater accumulates. it becomes the sea." 

The Emperor sighed. There was nothing he could do anymore. It was the first time in his life that he had seen the nobles come together and agree like this. If he ignores it, it will lead to enormous trouble.

Moreover, Duke Valentino is at the forefront of this work. A family of holy knights with a more noble lineage than the imperial family. If the descendants of that noble blood decide to eliminate the imperial family, at this moment, the justification is sufficient.

'It could become the seed of treason.'

It was obvious that if they put pressure on Valentino and the nobles, it would turn into a tidal wave and hit the imperial family. So there is nothing he can do.

"Father, the death penalty! Are you going to kill me?"

"How could I kill my precious son!"

The Emperor hugged Cassil. Although he hated him so much, Cassil was still a cute son to him.

A child born to Theresa, whom he loved. The youngest child looks exactly like him. Therefore, it must be rescued somehow.

Fortunately, it wasn't that there was no way to survive.

"Kanna Valentino, you said she hit you first, right?"

"Yeah, that's right. That's right. She started first!" 

"Okay. If so, there is a chance of victory."

He sighed.

"I will somehow end up in exile."

He said that, but he knew it wouldn't go to that extent. Not to mention the long exile...

However, if you talk about the punishment of cane and beatings, his son will definitely be terrified. The Emperor felt sorry for this and swallowed his words. However,

"Exile type?"

Cassil was dissatisfied with even that. Also, it hasn't been long since his exile was over, but is the Emperor telling him to go into exile again? So is the Emperor going to impose a ban on alcohol again? 

He wanted to complain, but the Emperor's face was unusually stern. Cassil suppressed his complaints.

***

The trial was held.

The last time she was sitting in the assailant's seat, Khanna was sitting.

"Why does he look like that?' 

Isaac was so damaged that he was unrecognizable. Not only his face but his entire body was swollen, so if it weren't for the nameplate in front of him, he wouldn't have been recognized. 

'You were tortured.'

Tsk tsk. 

Kanna clicked her tongue. She guessed he was holding out so as not to give away the information he had easily. So, it must have been that bad.

"Your Majesty the Emperor and the Empress!"

The Emperor and Empress enter. When they sat down at the table, the trial began. The trial went as expected. 

"His Royal Highness Prince Cassil. Your Highness kidnapped Duchess Valentino and attempted to murder her. Do you admit it?"

"I admit it."

Cassil nodded. It was just as his father had taught him. 

"Your Excellency Duke Valentino. His Excellency shot a total of three arrows at His Royal Highness Prince Cassil. Do you admit it?"

"I admit it." 

Sylvien smiled and nodded. Then the nobleman in the stands jumped up from his seat. 

"This is self-defense! What kind of man can leave his spouse alone when she is in danger of death?"

Then another nobleman stood up and shouted. 

"Besides, His Excellency the Duke would never have guessed that the other person was His Royal Highness Prince Cassil!"

"Who would have guessed? Who would have thought that the robber who kidnapped and tried to kill his wife was His Highness the Prince!"

Everyone stood up and defended. Sylvien as if they had made a promise. It was enough for Sylvien to just sit back and relax. He was a man who did not even need to open his mouth. Even if she didn't come forward, there were many people who would defend Sylvien.

'That is power. I envy you.'

She once again realizes the power of power in this world.

"I didn't know that woman was the Duchess Valentino."

Cassil, who was sitting confidently, pointed his finger at Kanna.

"Because I got beat up by that woman."
