Swordsman Runes

The Part 65

I had to attend the hearing and let Valerie take care of Monrra. At full speed I left for the capital.

3 Days of travel can be shortened to 2 days because we are in a hurry. As I walked into the courtroom, I got into a relationship with Marquess Eastria

"Master Marquess. What's the matter, actually?" "Ohh.. Viscount Monrra's. Must be hard to come here when there's a problem huh?"(The Marquess of Eastria)

"It's precisely because of that. The situation in my area is deteriorating rapidly. The monsters and the people take turns making trouble"

"I understand your situation. It's just that the prince's attempted murder was a serious crime"(Marquess Eastria)

"Wait first. The case of the attempted murder of the prince, the mastermind of the Marquess Marband? Isn't this just awkward?"

"I feel so too. But all the evidence points there"(Marquess Eastria)

"How come? He was almost poisoned, too. Does that mean he's trying to die together? Who would believe such a stupid thing"

"That's reality. After investigating the drink we almost drank it was a gift from the Marquess Marband before. In addition, the antidote was found from the poison in the Marquess train"(Marquess Eastria)

It's clearly slander. And all that can do this is the crown prince. But why did it get so

The crown prince had more support than the third prince. Which sucks, this thing can't be done anymore.

Marquess Marband could have been accused of being a traitor and received a sentence of extermination.

Not only him but everyone close to him will die with him. Both the Family, his subordinates, his soldiers even the Barons and Viscounts below him would be dragged along

From this alone it is clear that he is definitely not the culprit. Marquess Marband was slandered, if he really was a supporter of the third prince.

This would have a big impact on the third prince. Not only that the loyalty of his supporters will also shake

This way the crown prince will definitely be the next king. Me and Marquess Eastria entered the courtroom.

I've been watching this whole court. This courtroom is in the form of the letter U with the right part that is a supporter of the third prince

And the left is a supporter of the crown prince. I was confused where to sit

I finally chose to be in the last row from the right. This one is a new line of nobles.

Some of the nobles there noticed me "I just saw you in the third prince's faction"(Baron) "I don't support the third prince's faction"

"There's a crown prince faction"(Baron)

"I also don't support the crown prince's faction" "Means you're neutral? Why are you here?"(Barons)

I'm dumbfounded. Can't the neutral party be here? This nobleman was the nobleman who controlled the territory that the prince had conquered before

Thanks to that there are 4 small villages created. The four villages were given to 4 army chiefs in the previous war

The first village was Roland, followed by Terius, Vendra, and Mansturi. Naturally they are here, they are the support of the third prince

"I also don't know why I was invited here" "Invited? Meaning you're an important party, rarely have a neutral party invited here"(Baron Roland)

"Are you Vicount Monrra?"(Baron Terius) "Yes, I'm Vinscount Monrra" "Means you were present at the time, right?"((Baron Terius)

"I was there when it happened"

"Ohh so it is. Worth it, it's a good thing you chose this side"(Baron Roland)

What does that mean, too?

The king, the crown prince, and the third prince entered the room followed by the duke of Rucantry and Duke of Crambell

After that Marquess Marband entered while accompanied by soldiers to the central area where there is a small podium there

"Well let's start this trial"(King) The king, the third prince and the crown prince had a glance at me

Only the crown prince's face turned grim when he saw me "Marquess Marband. Is it true that you tried to poison the third prince?"(Duke Rucantry's)

"That's not true, your majesty. Servants in slander, servants were also there with the prince at the time of the incident, even the drink of the servant was also poisoned"(Marquess Marband)

"But the antidote was found in your carriage. Wisely you faked it as a vitamin drug typical of the Marband region"(Duke Rucantry)

"Hamba doesn't know about that. Our artificial vitamins never change the recipe, all the vitamins in the city have the same recipe as mine"(Marquess Marband)

"Sorry, your noble intrusion. Servant has an opinion"(Duke Crambell) "Say your opinion"(King)

"Thank you, your majesty. That is indeed the truth about the vitamin that is noble, just because the wine obtained from the Marband region does not mean the Marquess is the culprit, he said, after all, if the vitamin in question is the antidote does not mean if the prince drank it when poisoning will immediately recover? Looks like it's not the Marquess"(Duke Crambell)

"I understand if that's what you're expecting Duke. What if it wasn't the assassination of the Marquess but her revenge? How did the Marquess expect the prince to give something for saving her life?

There is no doubt that this was indeed a premeditated murder"(Crown prince)

"What about the poison? Is it possible that the perpetrator did it while on the road?"(Kings)

"In accordance with the examination it is impossible for him. We have examined it carefully and we can be sure the poisoned wine is more than 3 years old according to the production of the wine"(Duke Rucantry)

3 years? What the hell does this mean? "Can Duke Rucantry explain?"(King) "Okay, your majesty. The wine was already poisonous from the beginning after 3 years of its toxic effects weakened considerably because it was likely that the third prince could be cured immediately if taking vitamins from the Marquess"(Duke Rucantry)

Oh, my God, everything's clear. There are 2 conclusions from this incident whether it was Marquess Marband's intention or it was someone's act.

Looking at the pale paper-like face of the Marquess, it was clear that she was not the culprit. Then there was indeed a traitor in the Marquess residence.

The traitor made the poisoned wine and gave it to the third prince and fled.

After making sure the poison has an antidote contained in Vitamins Marband area

It seems to be the crown prince. From the beginning the goal was to kill the third prince, but even if the prince survived

He will shake the prince's stronghold with this incident "Do you have another defense of the Marquess?"((Duke Rucantry's)

"That's all slander. Servants are not related to any poison, nor do they have any connection to buy poison"(Marquess Marband)

"You can get someone else to do it. Better just punish him"(Crown prince) "So yes. What is the Duke's proper punishment?"(Kings)

"This act is a rebellion. His sentence of the extermination of the whole family"(Duke Rucantry)

"NO.... Prince please prince. Servants are always loyal to this prince all slander, servants have no intention whatsoever to rebel"(Marquess Marband)

"I'm sorry Marquess"(Third Prince) "No!!! Not possible"(Marquess Marband)

"Then"(King)

"Sorry to cut your majesty. Can I have an opinion?" My words made everyone there look at me.

Is this how the Marquess feels?
