Chapter 266 Announcement
Minos sat on the highest holy throne, no longer wearing the plain white robe, but a complicated and gorgeous golden crown. The hem of the crown was very long, and it fell like a golden wave along the stone steps and flowed on the clean white marble floor.
He held his chin with one hand and glanced down at the people below. His face was still overly young and handsome, and his noble and lazy look revealed a hint of indifference that looked down on everything.
Sang Luo found it difficult to move forward.
It's not that she hadn't considered this possibility, but when the other party's identity was actually revealed, it was somewhat unbelievable and she felt very upset.
Was he... deliberately teasing her before?
Little did she know that from the moment she stepped into the hall, Minos's gaze had been fixed on her, and a touch of warmth appeared in his cold and narrow blue eyes.
Seeing her hanging her head in depression, the young man moved his fingertips slightly.
"What are you doing standing there like an idiot? How can you look directly at the Son of God? Come here quickly! Humph, this foreign female from a remote place is really uneducated." Vanessa sneered.
Elodie couldn't bear to watch any longer and was about to speak when the archbishop in front of him spoke first, "Selma, who is this?"
"This is the noblewoman of the Leonard family."
Selma was the holy messenger sent out to deliver the message.
He told him everything that had happened before.
The archbishop's face looked a little unhappy, and he glared at him sternly.
He also lowered his head in shame. There was no need to bring such a small matter to the temple, but this noble lady insisted on bringing him over to argue, and he had no other choice.
The archbishop thought about it carefully. If the foreign female really committed the crime of theft and had bad character, she would certainly not be in the eyes of the Son of God, let alone be qualified to become the future mistress of the temple.
"Your Highness, please postpone the summons for a few days. I will take people to investigate this matter first." The archbishop turned and said respectfully to Minos.
Minos withdrew his gaze, and a hint of obscurity flashed in his eyes.
Bringing such a small matter to him was a pure waste of time. On any other day, he would have kicked the person out long ago. The reason why he listened quietly to the whole farce was that he was curious about another equally quiet person - she didn't do this, so why didn't she make any excuses from beginning to end?
Could it be?
She just wanted to take the blame and be kicked out of the temple as a matter of course?
Why didn't she want to stay in the temple, by his side?
Females naturally prefer strong and beautiful males, and he should meet her mate selection criteria.
Minos was confused, but he didn't want to pry into her heart, perhaps... he didn't want to hear an answer he didn't like.
Seeing that the Son of God had not spoken for a long time, the Archbishop asked in a low voice,
"If Your Highness has no other instructions, I will take them away first."
"The family emblem is on her. What else is there to investigate?" Minos' voice was extremely low and indifferent. He raised his hand and waved it. A golden light flew out from Vanessa's body and floated in his palm.
Everyone saw that what was shrouded in golden light was her lost family emblem.
Vanessa suspected she had seen it wrong. How could it be possible! This family crest… she had clearly sent someone to take it out of the palace long ago, so how could it be on her?!
Minos said calmly, "If Lady Leonard Vanessa can't keep the precious family emblem safe, then I will take care of it for you."
The family crest represents the family title.
The implication is that the Son of God has deprived her of her title!
"No! Your Highness! It's not like that..." Vanessa was completely dumbfounded. This was different from what she had imagined.
She didn't have time to think about it. When she wanted to get the badge back and almost touched the golden hem of the crown, her body was suddenly bounced out of the palace gate by a huge force, making a loud bang. Tsk, Sang Luo felt pain in her flesh just by listening to it.
Minos frowned slightly, and with a pinch of his palm, the badge instantly turned into powder.
The archbishop and his companions were also shocked. How dare someone lie in front of the Holy Son? If it wasn't a female, she would have been beheaded long ago.
The Archbishop hurriedly said, "Come, take this man out and never allow him to enter the Holy Palace again."
Two tall and strong orcs, one in front and one behind, held Vanessa's arms and walked out of the palace. Vanessa's face was pale. "You can't do this to me. I was wrong about this. I shouldn't have deceived Your Highness! I am willing to atone for my sins. This foreign female is not a good person! I also want to drive her out for the sake of the Holy Palace!"
Vanessa shouted, "I know who blew up the church a few days ago! It was this foreign female!"
"Wait, let her go first and listen to what she has to say." The Archbishop had been leading people to search for the whereabouts of the saboteur for the past few days, but had no clues. He looked at Vanessa seriously and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
Vanessa lay on the ground, nodding repeatedly, her face flushed with excitement, "Yes, I can guarantee that it was her who blew up the church!"
She pointed at Sang Luo, and everyone's eyes fell on Sang Luo.
Vanessa, "When I was packing my luggage, I found the clothes and token she had stolen in her room. They were exactly the same as the ones the vandal had reported. Furthermore, she wasn't in the palace when the church was bombed... I, I have a lot of evidence here. Please examine it carefully, Archbishop!"
The Archbishop said, "Your Highness, I will take people to investigate right away."
Minos, "No need to investigate further, the one who blew up the temple was her."
Sang Luo's heart skipped a beat and she looked at Minos. She didn't expect that he would sell her out so quickly, although... he had no reason to cover up for her.
Sang Luo, "Well, I plead guilty. I am willing to pay compensation to rebuild the church. You all have seen clearly what kind of person I am. Please let me leave the palace."
The archbishop was furious. "The church houses statues of past angels. Restoring it would require a tremendous amount of manpower. How could a foreign female like you afford the cost? Blowing up the church is punishable by death, regardless of gender."
Elodi and Habaier also looked at Sang Luo worriedly. They didn't expect that she was the one who blew up the church. In previous years, not to mention anyone daring to blow up the church, any orc who caused damage in the church would most likely be sentenced to death.
The two wanted to help her, but were helpless.
The other holy envoys were also furious!
If you are convicted of bombing a church, you will be sentenced to death.
The hall fell into a dead silence. Minos stood up and slowly walked down the stairs, his clothes flowing like divine light. "I give you two choices: death or life. Which one do you choose?"
Sang Luo didn't even think twice and said, "Choose the path of living."
"Oh, good." Minos said in a gentle voice, "I will clear her of all charges."
The smile on Vanessa's face froze before it faded. She was hysterical. "She's just a female from another race. Why?"
The people in the audience were also shocked.
The archbishop even suspected that he had heard it wrong.
Minos walked up to Sanluo and took her hand.
The sound is clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.
"She is my chosen partner, the Holy Queen I wish to marry. In the future, we will produce angelic offspring together, and no one can condemn her."
Sang Luo stared at him with wide eyes, "?!!"
I went out for something today, so the update is late.
There is also one in the middle of the night, babies can watch it after they wake up!
