The Return of the Female Knight

CHAPTER 61

"I heard someone talking about you. You should be honest if these rumors spread. "

Elena was just about to ask, "What are you doing?" But he swallowed his words. He could not understand where he was going with this, but he would accept what he said with the knowledge that he was by his side.

"Everyone is listening."

Carlisle fixed the room with a sharp look.

"Elena Blaise is my woman."

Carlisle's voice was clearly heard in the room, as everyone held their breaths. At the sudden announcement, the nobles swallowed or gave a brief shock. The truth about the rumor is moving in a new and exciting direction.

“Lady Blaise has seen me for a long time. I planned to keep it a secret before I officially announced it, but I don't expect this nonsense to spread. "

Carlisle walked through the room with a denouncing look, but Helen shook her senses and intervened.

"Then he cheated on you! There's a guy who says he's with Lady Blaise, and if you doubt – ”

Carlisle's expressionless face moved towards Helen.

"Who told you that shit? “

Carlisle's voice was very low, but Helen's only thought was the joy of having made eye contact with him. He initially breathed in embarrassment, but soon he put on the most innocent expression he could.

"Viscount says—"

But Helen's words did not last long. Carlisle issued a low command to the outside of the door.

"Bring here, Zenard."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zenard replied in a polite voice and stepped into the party.

"Let's put."

Zenard began to unscrew the cloth from the round object in his hand. The thing was released from its fabric ties and instantly fell to the floor and rolled forward.

Tong, keg, keg …

It stopped at the end of the table. What everyone saw–

The head of the man.

"Kyaaaaaa!"

The party was filled with the cries of the women. Everyone, men or women of all ages, turned pale and watched the scene with widened eyes. Carlisle's calm expression was very out of place.

"Is this the guy who said that?"

Helen looked at Carlisle in surprise, unable to answer. He cannot ignore who he is. He was a noble that he paid to pay for false rumors.

"… Oh. Oh. oh my god …"

Helen was completely numb. Carlisle responded casually.

"Take a good look and answer. If there were others like him, then I would do the same. "

The room, which used to hold the sound of joy, was now filled with silence. The music had stopped a long time ago, and everyone held their breaths as they watched Carlisle.

Sullivan has ruled for quite some time now. Until then, the emperors of the Ruford empire were war-lovers, brutal, and unafraid of spilling blood. After Sullivan was crowned emperor, the country remained in relative peace. This was the first time the young nobles experienced something like this, while the older ones had dark faces when they recalled the emperors in the past. For nobles who had lived most of their days through quieter times, Carlisle's actions had to be shocking.

No one said a word to Carlisle. His presence is incredible.

No one spoke, afraid of their necks. Having said that, with Carlisle as crown prince and Redfield as second prince supported by the empress, there was little room to step out of line. The Ruford Empire had been such a place from the very beginning, and the bloodstained history of the emperor proved it. The nobles were destroyed to be silent.

"…Your highness."

The soft sound penetrated the tense atmosphere. All eyes turned towards him.

And there stood Elena.

“You can stop now. They have learned the truth about the rumors. ”

Only then did Carlisle turn to look at her. Her face looked calm as usual, but Elena could see she was furious beneath the surface.

“You think this is enough? I will not calm down until I know who started this rumor and tore it to pieces. "

Carlisle's cold eyes immediately moved towards Helen, as if he knew from the start who was responsible. Then this might not be the end of it.

Elena felt she had to stop him. No matter how much the former emperor Ruford would spill blood, he did not want Carlisle to turn into a tyrant before everyone's eyes. And if he did this because of her, he wanted to stop her even more.

"Enough. I'm fine, Your Majesty. ”

Elena took Carlisle by the arm, and she could feel how powerful he was under her hand.

With a soft touch and warm body heat .. Carlisle's posture finally loosened.

"Mrs Blaise, you're my woman. And I hate it when other people touch mine. "

It's a warning to everyone to hear. Elena nodded in understanding.

“I'm sure they all know. Don't stay here anymore and come with me, Your Majesty. "

Carlisle furrowed his brows as he pulled his arm, but let himself go. Elena did not know about it, but everyone looked at her with the same astonishment as when the man's head fell to the floor.

Butcher, bloodthirsty demon, conqueror — there are many words to describe emperor Emperor Ruford, but they have never heard of the weakness of a woman. They could hardly believe there was someone who could take Carlisle away with such obedience when he seemed ready to kill anyone in this room just moments before.

Finally, Elena and Carlisle disappeared from the room.

The kwang!

The door was closed, but the room was still quiet as they tried to process what happened.

"… Heug."

Isak broke the silence. Helen cried and bit her lips. He rubbed his cheeks with both palms and looked up, his eyes glazed over.

"…How dare he. I'm gonna kill him."

Helen could not forgive Elena anymore for this. Carlisle's eyes met his. She must have admired her beauty, but suddenly, Elena took Carlisle's arm and stole it.

"Sick bitch, take my men from me."

Helen left the party shaking with anger, her two friends beside her. Sophie ventured forward cautiously.

"M-My Lady, what we–"

Helen cut it cold.

"Shut up! You useless thing. "

Sophie and Sarah gasped at the sharpness in Helen's eyes.
