Chapter 44: Debunking

At this time, the Countess of Angela was wearing an azure dress, without a skirt, and the skirt was dragged to the ground, and she looked even weaker and more charming along the way.

As if sensing Roy's gaze, she raised her head and was a little surprised to see Roy, then she smiled and nodded slightly.

Roy quickly nodded in response, watching her sit in the third row.

On either side of her sat two female counts, and since the affair between King Elul XII and the Countess of Angela, all the male counts who had been adjacent to her had changed places, and even the nobles who had had an affair with the countess avoided this place in full view.

It was not until the arrival of the king that the meeting began to deal with the affairs of Liminosi during this time, and it mentioned the establishment of a school for the orphans in the slum of Liminos, and the Countess of Angela was particularly concerned, and she got up from her seat more than once to refute the nobleman who was contrary to her ideas, and tried to bring about the school.

Roy looked at the roof with some boredom, the originally somewhat mysterious and solemn aristocratic council was now as boring in his eyes as the two aunts bargaining in the market.

Roy, the Countess of Angela's thoughts, probably understood, many of her methods were similar, using her ability to bring some benefits to the poor below, using the power of the poor to form her own banner, and when she established her image among the poor, she could encourage public opinion to use this power to interfere with the operation of government affairs.

At that time, in the eyes of those ordinary poor people, she is the only one who can bring them a better life, and the other nobles are all stumbling blocks to their better life.

The eldest princess Filia, who was sitting in the chair, smiled, as if the performance in front of her had nothing to do with her, and Roy looked at Lucas, who was standing behind the king with his hands tied, and he also looked like an old god, as if everything was under control.

After arguing with another female noblewoman for a long time, the king sitting in the chair also seemed to be a little impatient, and he struck the gavel in his hand three times in succession, and said: "Well, I agree with what Horges said, and all the nobles vote, and those who agree hold up blue signs, those who oppose them hold red signs, and the rest are counted as abstentions." With that, he took the lead in raising the blue card in his hand.

Now that the king had spoken, most of the other nobles did not feel the need to dwell too much on this matter with the Countess of Angela, after all, the expenses of the academy were subsidized by the state treasury, and they did not need to spend a penny.

The statistician hurriedly counted the number of people who raised their hands, wrote and drew on the paper, and then said to the king, "Your Majesty, there are seventeen people who agree to this. ”

The king raised his eyes to look at the nobles holding the red cards, and snorted in his nose, as if he was a little dissatisfied, but he didn't have a seizure, but just said, "Go on." ”

As the council progressed, a mage walked in from outside, holding a wooden box in his hand, and walked along the semicircular outer passage towards Lucas behind the king.

The two men muttered a few words quietly, and Lucas opened the wooden box again, looked carefully inside with his eyes, nodded with satisfaction, and then he turned around, and half-knelt before the king, and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report to you, and that is concerning the Countess of Angela. ”

Hearing that the incident was related to herself, Countess Angela sat up straight and looked at Lucas with her eyes narrowed.

The king seemed to come to his senses, and asked Lucas, "What is it?" ”

Lucas lowered his head and said, "Countess Angra has been killed, and this countess in front of her is actually someone else pretending!" ”

As soon as Lucas's words were finished, the whole hall burst into flames, and the councillors looked around to ask what was going on.

Countess Angela was naturally quiet here, and no one was stupid enough to go back and question the subject directly.

Her expression didn't change in the slightest, still squinting at the half-kneeling Lucas, she smelled the conspiracy.

As a black dragon, she was born with the talent to transform any race, and this talent made her disguise almost flawless, except for soul-detecting spells, but she never felt the feeling of souls being searched, and Lucas, a mage specializing in alchemy and fire magic, did not have the ability to hide the fluctuations that occur when releasing soul spells.

It's just that if it wasn't for searching for soul spells, how would he know about it? Guess? Without proper evidence, she would let him know the cost of talking nonsense.

The king, who was sitting in his chair, turned cold and asked Lucas in a loud voice, "What do you mean by that?" His words were a little cold, and his eyes were still glancing at the eldest princess Filia who was casually on the side.

Filia and Countess Angela don't deal with the king is known, but it's his daughter and his lover, and he is embarrassed to say anything, and Lucas and Filia are intimate, at this time Lucas attacks Countess Angra, he has no reason not to think that his daughter will be ghosted.

"Your Majesty, since the Countess of Angela returned to Liminosi, because of the contact with Your Majesty, the mage group has done magic detection for Countess Angela in private, but she is immune to these magic every time, which is not right in a person who has no ability, after our close investigation, we have every reason to suspect that Countess Angela is dead, and this person in front of her is the incarnation of a black dragon!" Lucas said.

The voices of the nobles grew louder and louder, and they all discussed Lucas's words, after all, he was a magician, and magicians represented truth and truth in the eyes of the world.

In fact, there are some doubts in Lucas's words, at least the Countess of Angela is immune to magic detection is fake, and detection magic will show false information, but the king is not a spellcaster, and he does not have a deep understanding of magic, and Lucas clearly bullied the king without knowledge.

However, Ajath understands that Lucas is lying, but she has no excuse to expose Lucas's lies, she is now an ordinary noblewoman who does not know any magic, and rashly refutes it is to give Lucas a handle.

"Silence! You go on! The king said in a cold voice.

Lucas hurriedly continued: "We have ready-made evidence in our hands to prove what I said!" ”

"What evidence?" The king asked.

Lucas took the wooden box in the mage's hand, put it on his hand and gently opened it, revealing the contents inside, and said, "Your Majesty, it is this Kunsaria larva, also known as dragon lice. ”

Inside the box, a gray-white mosquito-like insect the size of a baby's fist flew up, its eyes were huge, and a slender and sharp mouthpart stretched out, shining with a metallic shimmer, and it spun twice in the air, and then flew in the direction of the Countess of Angela.

At this time, Countess Angela's face was pale, she didn't expect this thing to be in the box.
