Episode 91.
“Your Excellency, This is the court.”
The judge general warned him when he was about to scream. The Duke managed to shut his mouth with a rough squeak. I could understand the feeling.
The youngest daughter, who had been strangled by the crown prince, suddenly confessed to having a “mutual” feeling. I’d be crazy, too.
“Hua, the Crown Prince, and the Princess…!”
The repercussions of my one word were great. The quiet room of the meeting quickly became noisy.
In it I encountered another blue eye hardened by shock. Derick was staring at me with his fists clenched.
‘You’re about to run out and grab me by the collar.….’
The top of his head began to blink dangerously. His spine was sullen by the tremendous momentum that spread from him.
It was actually dangerous if it fell further from “22%.” It was a time when I was continuously spilling over his head.
“Quiet! Everybody calm down!”
Tang, Tang,– Intead, The Judge struck the bong, calming down the tumultuous hall.
“Princess Eckart, go on with your statement.”
“… …but not long ago, I told you this to his highness.”
I nodded and used out-of-body speaking again. It’s as if I’m talking about someone else.
“I’m sure some of you at the eve saw me arguing with him at the banquet for that.”
“And I guess I saw it on the eve of the hunt……”
He tilted his head as if he remembered what some had forgotten.
‘Good thing I said loud then.’
What mattered was the huge scandal of the Crown Prince and Princess. I hurried back to the point.
“…..Shortly after the bear hunt, we encountered assassins who came to harm the Crown Prince.”
“That, That’s…!”
“While being chased by the assassins, His Highness was injured in their attack, and fell down the cliff together on the defensive.”
The aristocracy was all confused and shocked by the statement that was different from Viscount Gavoil’s own writing. I asked, looking back at my own work, which was going to be driven.
“I’m sure I’ve never shot a crossbow except a bear and an assassin, but I don’t know what’s wrong with anyone who fainted after being hit by my crossbow.”

“Oh, you’re lying! Well, I… I’m sure the princess was …..”
Viscount Gavoil stammered suspiciously. Marquis Ellen was quick to answer with a stiff face.
“But as the princess said, there’s something weird about it.”
“What?”
“Your Highness is now in a coma of unknown cause. The palace doctor said the apparent injury was minor and there must be another reason.”
“Yes. And?”
I asked back in a deep voice for a man as the person claimed to be a lover of the Crown Prince.
“If, as the princess claims, you were attacked by an assassin and you were injured, and you fell from a cliff, you should not be able to move until the search party finds you.”
“……”
“But then His Highness, the Crown Prince and the Princess walked the next day near the entrance to the forest. Soon after, the Crown Prince fell. It’s like a…”
Marquis Ellen blurted the end of his words in a meaningful way.
‘It’s like, you tried to lure him away and poison him on purposely.’
I had a rough idea of what to say when I didn’t finish. The Marquis Ellen seemed firmly convinced that there was no evidence of assassination.
‘Actually, you’re right.’
If the prince had not found an ancient magic map and had fallen, we would not have escaped the cave.
At the time of the suffocating silence in the hall
“Hey, Marquis Ellen!”
The Duke suddenly threw up his anger by hitting the armrest of the ‘tang!’ chair.
“You’re going too far just to keep your eyes on it. How dare you set me up! So my daughter was trying to undermine the Crown Prince!”
“It’s not necessarily but your daughter’s own dogmatic behavior.”
“You, you cheeky…..!”
“You talk too much, sir. I’m just having a valid doubts.”
Marquis Ellen’s grumpy grin at the angry Duke. And turned the protest back to me.
“Princess Eckart, tell me. Why did his highness lose conscious?”
“His Highness must have been poisoned.”

I replied with a blank face. He didn’t know I’d answer so openly, so the Marquis Ellen’s face was completely different.
“Well, how can a princess be sure of that? Sounds like a princess used poison on him!”
“Well, we’ll find out if we look into the evidence I took from the assassin.”
“What, what?!”
The Marquis, who had stuck to a relaxed attitude, jumped up from his seat at that moment.
“I can’t believe there’s been evidence…!”
“You mean the princess’ statement that she was attacked by a assassin is true?”
The hall has exploded to the point where it is different from the previous one.
“A lie, a lie! It’s all a lie..”
In the meantime, only the self-criticized Viscount Gavail tried to appease people senselessly.
“Your Honor, as evidence the dagger of the assassin who tried to harm the Crown Prince.”
It was the moment when I spoke out, taking out the dagger in my arms with my hands tied wide. It suddenly dawned on me.
