‘It might be because of the documents I had dropped when I bumped into her!’
The documents consisted of summarized information regarding the revision of the legislation.
Only the vassals were allowed to see it.
But it would be impossible for ordinary people to understand the bill, only those who had studied law since childhood would be able to!
He couldn’t believe it.
‘Did she figure everything out while I was busy picking up the scattered papers? But isn’t she just a ten-year-old kid?! This is absurd!’
But Aria’s card didn’t end there.
“Solicitation, establishment of false institutions, embezzlement, tax evasion, prejudice against women… There’s no end to it. You dare try to deceive the House of Valentine by committing these kinds of crimes?”
Lloyd didn’t raise his voice, but it sounded as if it were completely ruled out of emotion—as cold as ice.
“How dare you?”
Damn it.
The scribe broke into a cold sweat.
Though the vassals were ignorant of the law, they wrote and organized the documents as tidy as possible. But in the end, their corruption still got caught.
It was a ridiculous mistake.
“Are these reports true?”
“……”
“I asked if these reports were true, Count Beauport,” Tristan asked while staring at Aria with a strange look.
Lloyd lifted his sword and pointed it to the count’s neck without saying a word.
“W-why me?”
All of the vassals’ eyes turned to Count Beauport.
The answer was obvious. Since he was the one holding the holy relic, it was obvious that he would be the representative of the vassals.
‘What should I do?!’
The Count looked around desperately, asking for help.
However, the other vassals just avoided the count’s gaze.
In the absence of any hesitation, Beauport gritted his teeth.
He had no choice but to answer.
He already knew the answer from the moment when the holy relic appeared.
“around.
Still, he had no choice. So he followed her for the rest of the day, not knowing what kind of order she was about to make.
However, Lloyd expected her commands to be more human-like.
‘Nasty and selfish.’
Of course, he was completely off the mark.
‘I didn’t give her the authority to use it for this.’
Thanks to Aria, Vincent was able to avoid being evicted under false accusation. She even dealt with all of the corrupt vassals at once.
