317,

Cyclone couldn't even blink when his gaze met Allen Wang's. But he couldn't see anything in Allen Wang's eyes. It wasn't until a woman's voice shouted that Cyclone realized he had been waiting for five seconds.

"That's enough! You bastard, don't think I don't know! "

It was Bettina who said those words.

An advanced female elf, she may not have a weapon in hand, but her ferocious speech was terrifying.

"All that you said is not for the sake of Allen City. It's only because of that witch that you dare to speak these idealistic words!"

"What?!"

"What does this mean? "

Bettina took a step forward and pointed her finger at Cyclone in front of the throne.

"Because this man has fallen in love with a demon witch!"

In an instant, the topic brought up by Cyclone was taken to another world.

Cyclone did not answer, but all the ministers began to whisper.

Among them, even some ministers who had not spoken before began to smirk.

"Wait! Hey! What do you mean by this?! I can't just listen and let it go!"

The last person among those Cyclone knew in this throne room stepped forward.

Miss Marder, the president of the Wand Research Association, approached him.

"Hey! Lord Cyclone, please clarify. Are you saying all this just for a woman, and that witch in particular?"

There was no answer. Cyclone chose silence.

"What the heck?!"

"So that's how it is."

"No wonder. I was wondering why we were just talking about protecting our own wives..."

"Yes, it was all planned."

"Really, I almost got fooled!"

Ignoring the gossip behind him, Marder took another step closer to Cyclone.

"Even if you were enchanted by the witch, you shouldn't... Lord Cyclone! Don't you know? Eileen's parents were killed by the Grand Prime Minister and the demons!"

"Your Majesty! Please order immediately, have this man dragged out!"

"Your Majesty!!!"

"Your Majesty! Please give the order, this man is not at all for Allen, he only..."

"Really..."

Cyclone looked up again.

"You guys..."

"Someone come!!"

"Open the gate!"

"You guys..."

"Where are the guards?"

"Hurry!"

The doors of the throne room opened, but Cyclone had no intention of giving up.

Because King Allen had not spoken yet, had not taken a stance, giving Cyclone a chance.

"You guys!!!!!!"

Finally, Cyclone didn't need to clap or do anything strange to attract attention.

Because, in that instant, Cyclone had become the focal point of everyone.

With his life on the line, he was now ready to gamble everything and fight.

"It's you guys!! Don't change the subject!!!!!!!"

Cyclone shouted, and all eyes turned back to him.

"Allen... Isn't he supposed to represent justice? This is not justice! It doesn't matter what my relationship with the witch is, that's irrelevant! What matters is whether you are willing to make a change!!"

The sound of Cyclone was extremely loud, and the opened door allowed the sound to reach the throne room.

"We already know what you want, it's useless. Even if His Majesty promised earlier, as long as we don't admit that the witch is your wife, that protection won't apply."

"Exactly, we wasted so much time!"

Ignoring Cyclone's shouting, Stanni and Basbashi took turns speaking.

Finally, Daniel summarized the situation.

"Even if what Cyclone said makes some sense, so what..."

Daniel couldn't think of a solution. The only option was to slightly change Cyclone's intention and hope that he wouldn't have to execute Cyclone.

But...

"All this talk is just empty words..."

Empty words, no power.

No matter how logical Cyclone's words were, it was impossible to break the common knowledge that was ingrained in people's hearts.

However, just as Daniel said the last word, he saw it.

Allen's hero, Cyclone Theodore, was actually smiling.
