This sudden turn of events left everyone present utterly bewildered.
What exactly happened?
"Looks like it's almost done."
The woman slightly adjusted the screen's angle and then moved away from the camera.
After she left, the camera focused on the figure sitting on the throne.
It looked like an elderly man dressed in fine clothes, with white hair at his temples and a kind smile.
The nobles present, upon seeing the kind old man, were stunned as if struck by lightning.
Because everyone present recognized the old man in the shot.
'The Empire's most powerful emperor—Aubrey Saul VIII.'
Even Aurelion almost blurted out:
"Father!?"
The kind old man seemed to hear Aurelion's voice, and sat down with a smile.
Even August was stunned; he had no idea what Victor was going to do.
Suddenly, his gaze became fixed on the screen, and his pupils contracted sharply.
Between the palace walls, a warrior was bound hand and foot.
The other nobles also noticed this.
The warrior was wearing the kingdom's standard armor.
However, in this shot, it seems that the woman at the beginning was the main character.
She reappeared on one side of the screen, smiling as she introduced herself to everyone present:
"This person is named Chur. After identity verification, he has been confirmed to be a warrior from your Kingdom of Kant."
"He infiltrated our territory before and attempted to assassinate me, but failed. Now he's been captured and is being tortured to extract a confession."
Upon hearing this, everyone present exchanged bewildered glances.
The Empire almost never lies about such things, and there's no need to lie about it at all.
If you're determined to investigate, you can definitely find out the identity of the soldier on the screen.
And on that screen, even the emperor of the empire had made an appearance.
Clearly, with the emperor's endorsement, this matter could not possibly be faked.
What intrigued them even more was the woman who claimed to have been assassinated by them.
Who exactly is she?
"Sorry, I almost forgot to introduce myself."
Suddenly, a woman's voice rang out.
A radiant smile appeared on her beautiful face.
But this silenced everyone present.
“I am Leah Clavner, from Victor Clavner…”
"family."
Beep—
The image suddenly shrank, and the sound abruptly stopped.
Everything around seemed to freeze under these chilling words, and a cold chill crept up the spine of every noble lord.
Similarly, even August turned his head with difficulty to look at the expressionless man.
Viktor's voice rang out, like the tolling of death's bell:
"Now."
"It's time we settled old scores."
