However, her statement was followed by a dead silence from the Beast King. The bunny thought that he needed persuasion to finally deliver judgment.
However, she didn’t want to tell him about how she had seen Swan in her Saintess form as it might cause them to worship her even more.
She knew all the soldiers were already worshipping Swan as if she were their true Beast Queen and Goddess. If they knew that Swan could produce holy power, then they would definitely side with Swan no matter what.
"Your Majesty! I saw that Swan was using her dark magic to take Long Xiurong out of her prison cell! I truly saw them! Or else, there is no other way for Long Xiurong to escape, right? It’s all Swan’s dark magic!" Alice continued her accusation, wishing that the Beast King would finally believe her. "I am the only witness, Your Majesty. You must trust me!"
Gale took a deep breath and delivered his judgment, "Bring her to the city square."
The guards moved fast. They quickly seized her and Alice struggled as hard as she could.
"W-WHAT IS THIS?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! YOUR MAJESTY, I AM TELLING THE TRUTH!" Alice yelled as she struggled to break free. "I WOULD NEVER LIE TO YOU, YOUR MAJESTY!"
"Enough of your nonsense," Gale shut her down. "How dare you insult my wife like this. My wife spent the night sleeping in her bed. She had a nightmare because she was in pain, the cold weather made her leg ache!"
"S-she is using her dark magic, Your Majesty! She’s not actually crippled—!"
"ENOUGH! GET HER OUT!" Gale’s voice thundered again in the throne room. He had a few questions about his wife, but accusing her of suddenly appearing in the dungeon to save both Rock and Long Xiurong was just uncalled for. It was truly an insult because Gale witnessed with his own eyes how Swan was in so much pain to the point of having a nightmare last night.
The guards were already pissed by this chatty bunny, who kept on accusing their beloved Queen on top of creating this whole mess in the first place, so they couldn’t wait to execute her as well.
"LET ME GO! I SAID LET ME GO! I AM TELLING THE TRUTH!!" Alice tried to crawl her way back to the Beast King, but the guards already dragged her by her leg. She was yelling nonstop, wishing that the Beast King would believe her and let her go.
But even after she lost her voice, the Beast King didn’t move an inch from his mighty throne, nor did he say a thing to stop the guards from dragging her.
She finally lost her hope when she was finally dragged out of the throne room. She stopped yelling, but her eyes were still on the throne room’s door, wishing that the Beast King that she worshipped would come to save her.
Unfortunately, that never happened, and she had been truly abandoned by the Beast King.
