Chapter 48 (2/2)

“Your Majesty, certainly this is probably related to slave buying and selling

They brought thear crates

Indeed, it is as though this is a fake record

Moreover, the foods that were loaded at the same time can cover more than double the number of the crew members”

“Duke Ernst, please show it to us too”

Otou-sama added an explanation about the docunitia aristocrats

In some of the books, it was clearly stated that he had loaded hus for slavery

Anger enitia aristocrats who had read through the materials

“N-no! This is false accusation!

I’ framed by those companies!”

“Besides these back books, there is a letter about the secret agreenitia and the royal faantia—the Gattine family”

“It’s forged!”

“Unfortunately, it’s genuine

The coat of arms which accompanied it was appraised, the seal stamped on this letter is unquestionably of the Gattine family

Perhaps Your Majesty

For exareeantia”

When Onii-sama took out a letter, Louis widened his eyes

He also forgot to blink and groaned with a hoarse voice

“W……why, is it here……, can’t be……this stupid……”

“Your house was quite strictly guarded, so I also burned a hand

But just a while ago, everyone

ago, everyone slept well

Thanks to you, I was able to bring out everything that you hid

I do not knoho did it, but I must thank him”

When Eduart-oniisama smiled devilishly, Louis shuddered

Auguste seemed to be unable to bear it and diverted his eyes

Yup, that’s right

No uste’s wide-area mental interference

Louis kept tre in despair for a while

However, he suddenly got up and turned a uste

“Eduart, you should check Auguste again

Auguste who is inferior to ons

He surely hides a grave foul play”

“Even if you are on in a fraudulent way……you want to say that?”

“Wh……, what are you saying! This quack alchemist!”

Louis cried out as if exploding

Apparently, his intention of dragging Auguste down backfired

Louis tried to stop hi, but he was i soldier

“Well, everyone, it is not just back books and letter that we had seized from him”

“Don’t! Stop it! I beg you, stop there!”

“Please look at this ical tool”

Ignoring the agony cry of Louis, Eduart-oniisama took out a small piece of metal from his pocket carelessly

Everyone who saw it inhaled sharply

It was a single nail

The nail head was engraved with the emblem of the white rose of the Gattine faical incantation from the South

That thing could enforce slavery if you eiant

If you ee for coinable pain

This little nail was the worst and the lowest torture tool produced by Gigantia

“He’s lying! I don’t know anything about Gattine’s Holy Nails and the like!”

Louis screamed shamelessly

But no one trusted him anymore

Gazes of conteainst Louis

“Well, I will not deny that I am a liar

This was not seized from Louis’ mansion

This on, Camellia

By the hat did you call this just now?”

“Guh……! Just now……that’s different! That was just a little mistake!”

The red face of the raging Louis turned pale in the blink of an eye

Eduart-oniisama hid his contempt with an indifferent smile, he turned towards Louis and said:

“Do not speak, Louis Ode-Ignitia

The only ones who call this a Holy Nail are the people of Gigantia……our enemy country

The people in the Union Kingdom call this a Cursed Nail

Whatever happens, ill not call this thing as so ‘holy’”

“……!!!”

Eduart-oniisama looked at Louis who became speechless

I could see the quiet anger in his eyes

“Your dragon, Camellia, refused for this to be extracted

As long as she harbored this aboical tool, she should have known that she would continue to experience hellish pain

She……surely, she tried to protect you”

As if she loves you, Eduart-oniisama continued

A serious gaze that was different from the dark smile from before was directed towards the other side

Unintentionally, it also drew ht toward that direction

In that direction, I wondered if Caht now

“More than

right now

“More than that, you have driven a dirty Cursed Nail into your dragon!?”

“Are you an idiot! You used a Cursed Nail for the sake of cheating?!!?

“Do you want to win that much, you fiend!”

“You stain the ihts! Compensate with your life!”

The anger of the people of Ignitia exceeded the boiling point, and condeainst Louis could be heard

It was not unreasonable

That was an unnecessary act of violation towards the dragon and was an abuse

Siainst the state

King Ignitia approached Louis with an expression of distress and pity

The King looked down at Louis quietly, but Louis didn’t try to ht

“I……I intended to replace your deceased father

However, I guess it is impossible

I am not in the position to inform you of important matters”

“Fuh……hahaha……AHAHAHAHA!”

To the words of King Ignitia, Louis responded with a hysterical laugh

“HAHAHAHA! You’re acting as my foster parent?

Not only the throne, but you’re also going to take my father’s son away!

I never once thought of you as my parent!”

Hearing Louis’ outcry, King Ignitia had a deep bitterness on his face

However, even against such nephew’spatiently persuaded hi his voice

“No

Eventually, Auguste will need a trustworthy confidant

I thought that it would be transmitted even if it would take me some time”

“Like my older stepbrother, you want to put a collar on me

I will decline such a thing I will not be tamed

Neither by you nor the cowardly Auguste”

Louis stood up, shaking off King Ignitia’s hand as trying to reach for him

Soon, both of his arain

“I will not accept your order

That’s right, I will never lower my head to you bastards!

Not to the King of Usurper, nor to the Impostor Crown Prince

Both of you are all alike, you see me with hypocritical eyes!

The royal family today is full of fakes!

The legitimate heir to the throne was supposed to be me!

Hahahaha! Be cursed!

Whoever attempts to unjustly steal my country, I will curse you all!

Hahahaha! AHAHAHAHA!”

King Ignitia shook his head with an exhausted appearance

The Queen supported the King, while Otou-saed looks with Eduart-oniisama

“Bring Louis Ode-Ignitia to the prison

Never let hion”

“Yes, I understand”

With the clanking sound of metals, steel handcuffs were put on Louis

Two soldiers ca Louis

As the tension loosened, everyone thought that with this everything was over

“……‘Never let hion’?

Hahaha What an idiot”

Together with Louis’ ominous murmurs, a small purple shadow jumped out of his tabard

When the shadow grazed it, the steel handcuffs that were hanging on both hands of Louis fell away

The two soldiers who had flanked his sides buered onto their knees

Ared as if twisted off and their clothes ith blood

A son perched on Louis’ shoulder

The s with blood

“Go, Silvetica! Kill the filthy usurper, kill Henry!”

The purple dragon Silvetica flew from Louis’ shoulder
