Alantina Online: The Greatest Sword Mage Reborn As A Weak NPC

Prince Edward's eyes were red, but his mouth was covered, so he could only let out muffled screams and curses. He looked at Sally with such murderous intent that even Sally couldn't help but shiver a little. After Sally left the floor, those who were captured took the floor and explained what they knew. But all of this was just their word against the prince.

That was all until the second to last witness was called forward. Judge Seeral looked around because calling out: "Jose Yielding, please take the floor."

A young man walked out, being escorted by knights with handcuffs on his wrists and ankles. Once Prince Edward saw him, his eyes went from a murderous glare to that of hope. Someone who was finally on his side appeared! Even Marquess Duglous let out a sigh of relief. This man was Prince Edward's closest aid. He was sure to help turn things around. But soon, this bit of hope would be crushed. "Sir Jose, please make your statement."

"Yes, your honor." Jose nodded before raising his head. Making eye contact with Marquess Duglous and then looking at Prince Edward. He opened his mouth and began to speak. "Everything that has been said so far by all witnesses and those who were the target are all true!"

Marquess Duglous stood up and yelled out: "Bullshit! You dare lie in the court of law!?"

"Marquess Duglous, I am not speaking untruthfully. I have already turned over all documents. This includes all ledgers that have every name of every person who has been assisting the prince for many years back. Including everyone who has also helped build up a military outside the capital to stage a coup. Marquess Duglous, you may not know, but this man you are supporting is deviant. He will force himself on women. Kill those who oppose him and even wanted to kill his own sister and poison his father.

"And you are no different. You have many maids coming to your estate every month. This is because you can not keep them alive long enough. After you soil their bodies and then drain them of their blood, these harmless young women who only wanted to make ends meet and support their families all died due to this sick idea you have of using a young woman's blood as a tonic to bathe in and drink to extend one's life." This statement stunned everyone! Vance was the one most stunned by all of this because he was spouting nonsense early. Come to find out, one of the nobles was really having lots of maids coming to his home!

"Don't speak nonsense!" Marquess Duglous yelled out at the top of his lungs. His eyes were burning with rage. He wished he could fly down to the floor and kill that man!

"I do not need to speak nonsense since all the proof was filed on paper and signed by the prince himself as well as you. Each statement, each time you came to use offering money and only asking for maid servants in return.

"At any rate, this trial is not about you. This trial is about Prince Edward. He has been trying to kill his sister since she was five years old. He tried to poison her but ended up poisoning a maid at her side instead. He tried to drown her but fell into the water himself when he pushed her. He tried to stab her but was caught with the knife by one of the knights and had it taken away.

"From an early age, he saw Princess Alice as a thorn in his side. Each time he has tried to kill her, he has always failed, and now it has led to his downfall. And I am also a sinner for this as well. I will hold up to my sins and will admit my guilt, but I can say that the man before you is not a prince. He is a demon in human skin. Just because he could not get a girl to like him, he snatched her and killed everyone in the village she lived in. He starved innocent children because he had no heart. If this is not a demon, then I do not know what is. And I, as his accomplice, will say this now. He is not fit to be king or a human being, for that matter!" Jose's words echoed throughout the court, striking a lot of people at heart. To have the prince's closest man say all these things, it all had to be true!

"You may stand to the side." Judge Seeral spoke up, not caring for the tension in the air. He could see Prince Edward was about to go insane. "Finally, I will have you, Duke Henry, come forward."

Duke Henry walked down the stairs to the floor but not before making a detour and slapping Vance on the back of the head and snorting. Vance rubbed his head and pursed his lips. He really wanted to know what he did! The King raised his hands and began clapping. "Good! My brother is the best!"

Sally and Alice both giggled while Vance's face went sour. These two cheap old men were just trying to bully him! Henry looked at the king and nodded with a satisfied smile. This entire time he wanted to smack that damn boy!

Henry took his spot on the floor and motioned for the guards to remove the prince's mouth gag. He then stepped forward and asked: "Edward, why? Why go through all of this? You could have had the throne without issue, but you ruined it by trying to kill your own little sister. What made you think a girl who had no desire for the throne was your biggest enemy in the world?"

"Humph! She has always wanted to take me down! Since the day she was born, she has wanted to take my spot!" Prince Edward's eyes began to glaze over. A strange aura began to form around him as black smoke seemed to rise off his body. "She has always been the reason why I seem to be lacking! She is why everyone talks down to me! She is why everyone keeps an eye on me. It is all because of her! If not for her, I would have everything! Even the world! Hahahahahaha! I will kill her no matter what! She must die! Die! DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Henry immediately noticed something was wrong as he yelled out: "Everyone get back he is demonizing!"
