After Defeat, the Empress’s Negotiating Chip Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 244

244~ At a Loss…~

"I am the seventh princess born to my Father the King, Mo. Because my Father the King's health is poor, this announcement will be taken over by me."

......

Soon, under her speech, after announcing that Glaze Nation's chaos has ended and royal power has returned to Glaze's royal family, accompanied by waves of applause, this announcement came to an end.

"Wait! I object!"

Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.

"What do you mean the chaos has ended!? Clearly it hasn't ended yet!"

The little Princess froze on stage. She never expected someone would actually jump out to refute her. She'd never encountered this kind of situation before. This time, one suddenly jumped out...

But she still didn't understand what it meant.

"What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? My younger brother died! Killed in this chaos! And you, clearly had the ability to save him, yet you ran away alone!"

"Huh?"

When did she ever do such a thing? She doesn't remember this at all?

"Don't try to quibble! I saw it all! You and that damn Empress beside you walked out from inside the Barrier together, but refused to take us along, saying something about breaking the Barrier requiring time and not being convenient to disclose externally. But then you ran away yourself!"

"You clearly had the ability to let everyone evacuate, but refused to save us!"

"Aliang! Have you lost your mind!? That's Princess!"

A burly man rushing over from behind tightly locked "Aliang's" body and covered his mouth to prevent Aliang in his arms from continuing to curse.

This is Princess! Insulting royal family members carries severe punishment! Serious cases can even result in direct execution!

But soon, his hand was bitten. After loosening his grip in pain, Aliang started cursing again.

"What damn Princess! I think it's all an act put on for us!?"

Mo: "......"

The little Princess froze in place.

She really, this lifetime is the first time encountering this kind of situation. For a moment, she didn't know how to handle it.

"Give me back my younger brother!"

While speaking, he had already drawn a short blade from behind and charged toward the little Princess.

"Hmph... an ignorant fool."

Casually slapping Aliang's face, one slap sent him flying several meters away.

If not for considering that killing someone in public would affect the little Princess's prestige in Glaze Nation citizens' hearts, that slap just now wouldn't have deliberately restrained its force.

"Dare to attack Mo again, and I don't mind executing your entire clan on the spot."

The Empress warned.

Although she temporarily spared this guy, publicly assassinating a royal family member, and moreover Glaze Nation's First Princess, is already no different from being sentenced to death.

No matter what, commoners can never assassinate royal family members. Even if they did wrong, only Glaze's royal family internally can punish them.

This is iron law, unshakeable.

"Damn woman! You two both go to hell!"

With that, Aliang once again picked up the short blade and continued charging toward the Empress and little Princess. Then he was once again slapped flying away.

Picking up the short blade again and again, being slapped flying away again and again, Aliang's eyes had been completely blinded by hatred.

"Aliang! Enough! Wasn't it also Princess who opened this damn barrier to save us?"

Aliang could no longer speak a complete sentence, but he still chose to pick up the short blade and continue charging toward the two.

Not knowing if she was annoyed from hitting him, or if her patience had already reached its limit, the Empress condensed Magic Power in her hand, preparing to directly obliterate this guy who dared assassinate the little Princess without distinguishing right from wrong on the spot.

"Fei, stop!"

Hearing this, the Empress could only disperse the Magic Power in her hand and instead slap him again.

"Enough! Don't get up again! Do you want to be beaten to death here!?"

The little Princess rebuked angrily.

"First, I have never abandoned any single citizen of Glaze Nation. Going out was only to find a way to destroy this Barrier. Second, I am indeed putting on an act, acting as that flawless princess in your hearts, but I think I have a clear conscience. At least I've never done anything to harm Glaze Nation's citizens. Third, since you say your younger brother was killed by Alchemy Golems, then why should the blame fall on me?"

A spark of anger had already ignited in her heart.

Clearly she worked so hard trying to save Glaze Nation. Why in the end must she still face doubt?

"You damn woman! Clearly all of this was brought by you, wasn't it!?"

What...?

Aliang used all his strength to pull out a pill from his pocket and swallow it. Then his body, which originally had no magical talent at all, began erupting with Magic Power all over and started infinitely expanding.

This is Divine Power!?

Damn it! If this continues, everyone present will suffer!

This most primitive Divine Power, a person who hasn't practiced magic at all absorbing it has only one outcome: explosion!

She speculates the Empress perhaps can't stop it...

In her thoughts, the Empress had already deployed a Magic Power field attempting to suppress this Divine Power, but it only slightly slowed the speed.

Can't worry about so much now!

The little Princess pulled out an exquisite short blade from her Magic Storage Ring, a short blade she had already enhanced into a God-Slaying Weapon, a short blade that can sever divinity.

......

Hey hey... not seeing wrong, right? Glaze Nation's First Princess, who's always been physically weak and has no magical talent whatsoever, actually relied on a short blade to cut the person who just turned into a monster into two halves with one strike.

Mo: "......"

The little Princess, who received the impact, had the Disguise Magic on her body rapidly failing. A pair of cat ears and a cat tail were exposed before everyone.

"Mo!"

The entire venue fell silent.

Black cats have always been a symbol of misfortune in the Eastern Region. It seems to confirm what Aliang, who had already been cut into two halves on the ground, said. Their Princess is a symbol of bad luck...

"No way... how does Princess possess this kind of power? Isn't she... supposed to have no talent for practicing magic at all!?"

"Could it be that Princess made a deal with an Evil God?"

"This... is it true?"

During this period, almost the entire Eastern Region has re-recognized the existence of Evil Gods. Although only superficial, it doesn't prevent them from doubting.

These non-human characteristics, belonging to black cats, seem to confirm it...

When doubt exists and surface appearances are witnessed, suspicion becomes unavoidable.

The little Princess stood in place for a moment, not knowing what to say to explain. It seems like whatever she says is equally powerless. Maybe it would even make people doubt more instead.

She looked toward the Empress somewhat at a loss.

......

"This has become interesting now. Didn't expect Glaze Nation's First Princess actually accepted an Evil God's power~"

Maybe this can be used to shake the position of Scarlet Phoenix Nation's Empress who took this Glaze Nation's First Princess as Imperial Consort.
