Chapter 238: Despair

In the imperial capital, there has been a discussion about what happened at the triumphal banquet for the past few days.

Ordinary people did not have the opportunity to witness the confrontation that shocked the entire empire, but rumors of that confrontation blew into every household like the wind of early summer.

"I really didn't expect it, it turns out that Dylan guy is such a person, it's just a hypocritical villain!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Not only is he ambitious and wants to commit treason, but he also wants to awaken the ancient demon dragon! Is he crazy? Doesn't he know how many heroes of our Ganeman Empire died in order to kill that demon dragon back then!"

"Hey! This is the so-called separation of hearts and minds! Don't look at the fact that he has saved a lot of war exploits for the empire over the years, it turns out that everything is to cover up his various crimes!"

"That's right, what kind of secret brotherhood did he join, I heard that the secret brotherhood is full of fugitives, and many of them still have more than a dozen lives on their backs!"

"It's just such a person, we used to see him as a young hero, I'm really blind!"

......

On the streets of the imperial capital, similar voices can be heard everywhere, and these people do not have the slightest taboo, but their voices are deliberately raised, for fear that others will not hear them.

None of them were there at the time, but judging from the tone and movements of their voices, it was as if they had witnessed everything with their own eyes.

So where did they get the news?

Part of it was from Sophie, the "Ear of the Wind", who didn't know where to get the news of a lot of feasts, and he had already spread the whole thing just one day after the incident.

In particular, the seven charges were restated word for word, which shocked and indignant many civilians in the imperial capital.

Of course, many nobles who were originally very hostile to Dylan deliberately spread some rumors to describe Dylan even more unbearable.

Amid countless rumors of slander and slander, Dylan's image plummeted. Until yesterday, he was a hero among the younger generation of the Empire, but a day later, Dylan was a traitorous villain who everyone could spurn and insult.

Among some legions, veterans who already didn't like Dylan even passed the inside story of the battle in Warcraft Mountain.

Regarding Dylan's possession of the soul and bloodline of the elven race, as well as the identity of his mother Elena, many people have brought it up to talk about it!

Over the years, the relationship between the human race and the elf race has been extremely poor, and when I heard that Dylan actually had the blood of the elf race, many people even slandered and insulted Dylan.

It's no wonder they will betray the empire, it turns out that they are a mongrel themselves, and they are of different races, of course, they can't be heartfelt, etc.

What's more, the words also contain insulting words against Elena.

Among these people, some of them had seen Elena in their youth with their own eyes, and naturally they all had thoughts of the beautiful Elena. But they also knew very well in their hearts that it was impossible for a noble person like Elena to look at them squarely.

So, these people tend to have both love and hate for Elena.

They never reflect on the fact that Elena does not look down on their origins and appearances, but on their very dirty souls and minds.

People are like this, it is always difficult to see their own shortcomings, and they are obsessed with the shortcomings of others.

Back then, when Elena and Aofeng Green first met, Aofeng was just a very ordinary knight in the legion, and he didn't even have the title of officer.

It's just that Ao Feng is honest and funny, brave and resourceful, and kind-hearted, which won Elena's heart, and the two started a legendary interracial relationship.

At this moment, a horse-drawn carriage slowly approached from one end of the street.

The civilians, who were still talking loudly, quickly shut their mouths when they saw the family emblem on the carriage, and did not dare to continue to comment indiscriminately.

On top of the coat of arms was a shield drawn on it, and on top of the shield was a cluster of crimson flames, which was the family emblem of the "Vaer" family.

Look at the exquisite and luxurious two-horse carriage, it is a rare and superb car.

Generally speaking, according to the laws of the Empire, no horses were allowed to ride on the streets of the Imperial Capital, except for the carriages used to load goods and the royal carriages.

However, the new king granted the need of the Lefan family, saying that it was to reward Angela for her heroic deeds.

This extravagant carriage passed through the streets in such a majestic manner, and walked slowly towards the Cathedral of the Holy Light not far away.

Of course, no one dared to say anything, after all, the Vail family is now more prosperous.

Angela Vail was given the honorary title of "Guardian of the Empire" and the fiefdom of three provinces, which was a great honor that had never been achieved before!

They didn't know that the Great Magister who was lying in the carriage did not have the slightest emotion.

Inside the carriage, Angela's face was gloomy, as if she didn't care at all about the honor she had just won.

Beside her, there was also a beautiful woman in a red robe, none other than Amy Vail.

Angela suddenly sighed and said, "This time, you are too impulsive and too impulsive. You know, if you have a knighthood now, then at least you have a guarantee!"

Amy looked at her aunt, who was a little weak, and said, "That's not a guarantee at all, but a burden." Besides, I'd rather not have such a knighthood. ”

Angela frowned: "You also relied on your own military exploits in exchange for a knighthood, and it was not obtained by opportunism, why not?"

Amy pursed her lips and said, "Because I think it's unfair to judge! As long as there is an unfair reward for one person, I don't want to accept such a reward, let alone so many injustices this time!"

Angela sighed and said, "How can there be so much fairness in the world?"

But seeing Amy's resolute attitude, Angela had no choice but to give up.

The carriage made its way slowly towards the Cathedral of Light, moving extremely slowly, as if it was afraid of making the two masters in the car feel a bump. No one knew that Angela had told the groom in advance.

As the Van family's luxurious carriage slowly crossed the street, they did not know that on the ground in the corner of the street, there was an iron bar, and the dungeon of the Inquisition was connected below.

At this time, Dylan looked at the iron fence above his head with a blank expression, and his hands and feet were covered with iron chains with forbidden magic circles. As a result, even if he is a shadow mage, he will not be able to perform any magic.

Although the chains limited his magic, as a shadow mage, his senses were not affected. He heard all the conversations and discussions on the street clearly, but unlike the anger at the beginning, he was almost numb now.

For such an empire, he is speechless and desperate.
