"How did the king of Twilight City come here?!"

The people in the hall watched Todd slowly walk into the hall and talked about it.

Walking to the front of the main hall, Todd turned around, smiled and said to everyone: "Everyone, please be quiet, I believe many people will be curious, the reason why I am here ......"

Glancing at the throne beside him, Todd continued, "The Holy Acropolis and Twilight City are neighbors and allies in the diocese. It is known that when the Holy Acropolis was in a food crisis, the city was the first to lend a helping hand......"

"As for why I'm here? The reason is simple: when I heard about the election for the throne of the Holy Acropolis, I wanted to come and congratulate the new king after he succeeded to the throne. But the old king's madness caused the election to the throne to be postponed, and the timing of my visit changed from congratulatory to observant. ”

"Watching the ceremony?" Count Gordon shook his head and said, "King Dusk, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, the two candidates for the election for the throne of the Holy Acropolis, His Highness Sinclair and His Highness Matild, are now missing, so the election can only be postponed indefinitely." ”

The smile on Todd's face froze, "Two candidates?

Earl Gordon's eyes widened and he froze in place: "Three?!"

Outside the door of the main hall, the sun had set, and the confused moonlight was faintly sprinkled on the earth.

Under the bright and cold moonlight, a stunning woman in a white dress walked into the hall. Her skin is as white as falling snow, and her beautiful face gives people a dream-like feeling in the night.

Amid the exclamations of the crowd, Mary stepped on the stone slab under her feet and walked into the hall with her head held high.

Earl Gordon looked at the woman he had seen since childhood, and his mouth opened wide, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"This is ridiculous!"

A shout came from the crowd.

Todd followed the sound, Cardinal Jacob pointed at Mary, and rebuked loudly: "She is not qualified to inherit the throne of the Holy Acropolis at all! She is the queen of the Kingdom of the Silver Ring, and after marrying the king of the Silver Ring, she should have nothing to do with the Holy Acropolis!"

Jacob's words made everyone present agree.

In their eyes, although the Silver Ring Kingdom is already a dead country, the queen is the queen after all, how can she come to inherit the throne of the Holy Acropolis?

Mary's figure was still tall and her expression was still haughty, but Jacob's words had already uncovered the scars in her heart.

Her teeth bit her pale lips, her nails were deeply embedded in her palms, and her whole body looked crumbling.

Todd turned his face to Mary and gave her a warm smile, which made her feel better.

"Your Excellency, there seems to be something wrong. ”

Hearing Todd's words, Jacob, who was still proud, turned dark and said angrily, "What's wrong?"

Todmore rubbed his chin and said as he pondered, "If I'm not mistaken, when the Silver Ring Kingdom colluded with the barbarians, the church had a holy text and expelled the Silver Ring King. In other words, since then the King of the Silver Ring has become a pagan, and the Father no longer recognizes the Holy Marriage between Him and the Queen......"

Jacob's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide enough to fit an egg.

Todd pointed his finger at Mary and continued, "Since the Church no longer recognizes this marriage, then naturally she no longer has any relationship with the Silver Ring Kingdom, and rightfully has the right to inherit the throne of the Holy Acropolis......"

Jacob's mood is as disgusting as swallowing a fly raw.

What he never expected was that the church was completely lifting a stone and shooting itself in the foot this time. The expulsion of the King of the Silver Ring was tantamount to the termination of the marriage between the king and the queen, which allowed Mary, who was a member of the Heavenly Father, to regain her inheritance.

Jacob wanted to refute one or two, but he couldn't think of any other reason to explain the matter, so he could only stand still.

After thinking about it for a while, people also nodded their heads and agreed with this statement.

Todd smiled and turned his face to Earl Gordon: "I suppose there should be no one to dispute whether Mary has the right to inherit the throne, right?"

Gordon glanced at the arrogant woman beside him and sighed lightly: "No objections. ”

"So, let's let the candidates ...... next"

Jacob jumped out again at this time and said: "Now that the other two candidates are absent, how can the election be conducted?"

Todd looked at the people in the hall and said in shock: "Those two candidates are already disqualified. ”

Gordon was surprised and asked, "Disqualified, what do you mean by that?!"

"Let's start with His Highness Matild. Todd took a report from Dieng, who was limping from his walk, and said to everyone present: "I have here a record that clearly and unambiguously records the crime of His Highness Matild in selling food. ”

Gordon frowned, picked up the report handed to him, and looked at it carefully.

The paper details how Matild used his position to sell and embezzle relief supplies in the aftermath of the food crisis to meet his personal lavish needs. A long list of numbers is shocking.

Watching the report circulate through the hands of the nobles and officials, Gordon looked at Todd, "Are these numbers true?"

"Absolutely. Out of the corner of Todd's eye, he glanced at Tristan in the crowd, and then said to Gordon: "The handling of these goods has passed through several Twilight Chamber of Commerce, and all the sales data are well documented. ”

Listening to the people in the hall loudly reprimanding His Highness Matild's actions, Jacob rolled his eyes and said loudly: "His Royal Highness Matild is not virtuous, and may not be suitable for the throne of the king, which is why the Holy See gave up supporting him...... But what about His Highness Sinclair?!"

Gordon also reacted at this time: "Yes, His Royal Highness Matild is not a good choice, but His Royal Highness Sinclair loves the people like a son, is kind and generous, and is diligent in government affairs. Lord of Twilight City, how can you deny his inheritance?!"

Todd raised his eyebrows: "In my opinion, His Highness Sinclair seems to be inferior to His Highness Matild in terms of character......"

"What did you say?!"

Todd's words caused an uproar in the main hall, and Gordon was the first to roar: "Lord of the Twilight, please speak clearly! Even if your status is noble, you can't slander the heir of the Holy Acropolis at will!"

Todd looked around at the people with angry faces around him, and exchanged glances with Cumberland.

The latter waved his hand, and a small group of soldiers of the Order brought baskets of papers and books.

"If Matild's crime was merely motivated by greed, Sinclair's actions bordered on brutality. Todd pointed to the pages at his feet, which were a hundred times larger than just now, and said, "Because the latter is engaged in human trafficking, and it is sold to the people of the Holy Acropolis itself!"

Screams and roars nearly tore off the roof, and people shouted questions about Todd, and everyone called him an alarmist.

There was only one exception, Cardinal Jacob looked at the papers stacked on the ground more than half a meter high, as if he remembered something, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Todd asked Earl Gordon to get a few Kingdom clerks and pick out a few documents from the middle for them to read aloud.

From the names of the members of the refugee families, to the routes arranged by the fleeing organizations, to the logbooks and memos of the ship's voyages, to the records of the sales in the slave market, and finally to how the proceeds of the sales were laundered and found in Sinclair's pockets. These documents describe the appearance and size of each slave in great detail.

The voices of the people were questioning, and everyone had a jaw drop on their faces.

Gordon looked at the book in his hand, tears were in his eyes, slowly closed his eyes, let it fall to the ground, and muttered in his mouth: "Your Highness Sinclair...... How could this be?!"

Seeing this scene in front of him, Jacob knew that things were gradually developing in the worst direction, and he had no choice but to give it a go.

"These documents can be forged at all! None of them are true!" Jacob waved his arms and shouted excitedly, "The Twilight Kingdom must have been preparing for this day for a long time, just to confuse the public!

Todd looked mockingly at the jumping cardinal, snapping his fingers at Cumberland.

The latter asked the lieutenant of the Order to bring up two men.

A man and a child are like father and son.

Gordon looked at the two of them and suddenly exclaimed, "Pilar!

Looking at the puzzled eyes of the people around him, Gordon hurriedly said: "This man is the gardener of my manor, and the child is his son, but they should all have fled to the Duchy of Fenton...... Where has your wife, Vera, gone?"

"My master!" said Pilar, kneeling on his knees, hugging Gordon's legs, crying as he recounted the last six months.

With a longing and hope for a new life, Pilar took his wife and children aboard a merchant ship to evacuate refugees. Unexpectedly, a family of three was taken as slaves and sold to the ancient city of the Ulster Kingdom.

After that, his wife committed suicide in disgrace, and his son was severely beaten by the buyer and left with a lifelong disability......

Listening to the man's statement, Jacob sat limped on the ground.

The human and material evidence is there, and the general trend has gone.

After the turmoil, the election for the throne went smoothly.

This night is destined to go down in the annals of the Holy Acropolis. This militant and warlike nation gave birth to its first queen hundreds of years after its founding. (https:)
