Love And Secrets

Sacrifice Lin

"Alice.." The king came down from the throne and walked towards Alice. He patted Alice's shoulder tight enough that her body staggered slightly forward.

"You look so pale, are you okay?" Everyone looked at Alice and His Majesty the King.

"I'm fine, Your Majesty.."

"All right.." Then the King walked towards Laura, Laura was still crying, her face looked swollen.

"Laura.."

Laura looked at the King and wiped away his tears.

"Are you really pregnant?"

Laura's face instantly turned pale, her lips trembling.

"I..

"I'm really pregnant Your Majesty!!

"Why am I lying?

"That woman really pushed me!

"My Child..

"My Son Your Majesty..

Laura was crying.

"Alright, I don't know who's lying here, but for now Alice's a suspect in the prince's murder case."

Everyone present seemed satisfied, except for Gara, William and Eric.

Alice did not show any expression, it was very difficult for her to be free from prejudice, she had no evidence other than herself, as for Lin, she was not seen there, even though she was always beside Alice.

A few guards walked towards Alice, but quickly Gara blocked her.

"Stay away from Alice!"

One sentence came out of Gara's mouth, none of them dared to oppose. They walk away.

"Alice, are you okay?"

"Thank you, I'm fine with Gara."

"Dad!

"You don't trust Alice?"

The king sat back on his throne.

"Gara, son..

"I believe in Alice.

"However, what can I do if there is no evidence that can save Alice?

"I'm here as your King, not as your Father."

Because she was about to cut off the King's talk, Alice quickly forbade him.

"Cara..

"That's it.." Alice tried to smile.

"So today's court ruling that Lady Alice is guilty of killing and hurting Princess Laura, so the punishment for Alice is a life-long underground lockdown."

Everyone was satisfied with the King's decision, a happy look emanated from Laura's face, as soon as her cries receded and changed with a smile full of happiness.

William and Eric looked down, not knowing how to save Alice. Gaping tightly onto Alice's hand, tears piled up in her eyes, a tight hug as her body made all the shields Alice had made to shatter into pieces, her tears falling down her cheeks.

"Gaara's..

"I

"I didn't do it..

Oversight

Huuuu

"I'll use all Alice's means.

"Trust me!"

Some guards tried to separate Alice and Gara, they pulled Alice's hand forcefully.

"If you hurt her, I won't let you breathe when we meet again."

They were terrified to hear Gara's threat, then slowly withdrew Alice's hand. As Alice was about to be taken out of the Hall, someone shouted from the seat.

"I object!"

Everyone looked at a man in black clothes and a black cloth covered his face.

"Within.." Alice almost surged forward from being too happy to see Lin.

"Who are you?" The king spoke to Lin.

"Come here.."

Lin walked towards the King's throne, he knelt down and kissed the King's feet.

"Stand.." Lin stood up and looked at everyone who was there.

"What do you want to say?"

"Your Majesty..

"My name is Lin, I am a ninja with the best magic abilities. I'm sorry I couldn't take this cloth off."

The king nodded hearing Lin's explanation.

"I am the bodyguard of Lady Alice, it has been a few days since I was in charge of escorting Lady Alice, it all started from the attack that someone had done, she said, so Young Master Gara asked me to directly escort Lady Alice wherever she went."

Laura's face stiffened as Lin said the attack on Alice, she did not want to hear Lin's words any more.

"As you know, I'm a Magic Ninja where I can't show myself in front of anyone, but Lady Alice can easily see Me, even though I'm already using high-level magic."

"Just right, Your Majesty.."

"If you all don't believe it, then I will disappear right now." and right after Lin spoke so he disappeared.

"He's really gone."

"Alice can you see it?" His Majesty the King looked at Alice.

"Of course Your Majesty.."

"Where is he?"

Alice pointed in front of His Majesty the King.

"Lin is right in front of your face, Your Majesty."

Everyone laughed, they saw no one, the King was confused. But a second later Lin showed herself, and of course Alice was right, she was right in front of the King's nose.

"Oh Jeez!!" The king was surprised to see Lin before his eyes.

"Alice, can you really see her?"

"Truly Your Majesty.."

"Surely they are cooperating with His Majesty!!" Laura was hysterically screaming.

"They don't like me! they want me to go!" Laura was crying.

"But Alice, how do you prove that you know Laura's not pregnant?"

"I saw it for myself Your Majesty, his stomach is filled with black smoke."

"lik!

"He lied Your Majesty!!

"Basic women are Cunning!!

"You killed my son on purpose!

"Because you cannot give offspring to Young Master Gara!!

"You're jealous because I can!"

Alice's body trembled at Laura's words, she knew very well that she could not get pregnant, and it might have greatly disappointed Gara, but she wanted to believe that Gara would love her no matter what.

"Hm..

"Lin. all of those things do help a little, but still they can all be manipulated."

"Dad!"

For looking intently at His Majesty the King.

"Your Majesty..

"I'm sorry for my indecision, but I'm going to prove that Lady Alice is innocent."

"In magic, we can do anything, including repeating events in visual form, but requiring sacrifice."

Everyone listened quietly to what Lin said, but not Alice.

Alice stared intently at Lin, then alternately looked at Gara.

"How is Lin going to do?" Alice***-wring her hand.

"She's going to do something that Alice must do."

Lin looked at Alice, she smiled.

To her, Alice was already like her own master. And he did not hesitate to make a small sacrifice that would free Alice from all the charges that led to her. This he had prepared from the beginning if Alice was still found guilty.

The atmosphere of the court hall was very quiet, no one was talking, they were staring at Lin and following his every move.

With a quick and almost invisible movement, Lin took a very sharp sword from the back of his foot, then with a very fast movement Lin cut off his right hand. Fresh blood flowed from his already separated hands, everyone who was looking gaping could not believe what had just happened.

Alice who saw clearly screamed, her legs limp, she fell down, but Gara quickly carried her.

Every drop of his blood that came out evaporated into the air and displayed the events of yesterday very clearly.

Everyone held their breaths as Laura purposely knocked herself down and Alice quickly ran and shouted for help.

Alice cried, she felt bad because Lin had done all that to save her.

Alice tried to stand up and staggered towards Lin. He hugged Lin tightly, his tears dripping down and wetting Lin's shoulders.

Lin who was feeling inappropriate with Alice's treatment looked at Gara, Gara did not show any expression, her face tended to be flat, and Lin was very dislikeful of her.

"You fool!

"Why are you doing this Lin!!"

Alice tearfully looked at Lin's hand that was no longer perfect.

"I'm fine Ma'am, ma'am,

"Ma'amm..

"I'm sorry for my impoliteness, however..

"Can you let me go?

"Young Master Gara will kill me if you stay in my arms any longer."

Alice quickly let go of her embrace.

"I'm sorry..

"I was just so surprised and

"I feel so guilty.."

"No Ma'am, this is purely my wish.

"I'll be fine, and still the greatest ninja."

Lin smiled sincerely.
