“Arrest the criminals now!”
I stood up at the sound of the knight’s voice from afar. “It’s okay. You expected it, Daisy. Let’s not be afraid.”
Without rushing, I got dressed properly and prepared to leave the room.
‘Is this the end?’
Then he erased his gloomy expression and looked out the window coldly.
Duke of Libya, one of the founding families of the Odphylia Empire.
This place, which used to be a beautiful mansion representing the capital Bard, was Glled with somber energy that it was impossible to Gnd its former appearance.
The garden, which was famous in other countries because it was full of beautiful flowers as gifts from God, had long since been trampled on by knights, and the historic mansion was ruined by the sudden invasion of knights.
“How did this happen….”
I let go of the painful feelings and slowly walked out of the room. The inside of the mansion had already been occupied by knights.
The lobby was already full of knights, and the atmosphere was solemn.
The knights who found me guided me to the lobby very carefully, unlike their angry faces.
After a while, two women were dragged by the knights in front of a huge staircase that split on both sides.
The two tired women were thrown away without hesitation. ‘Liliana Libyatan, Viola Libyatan….’
My sisters.
They could not resist the strong hand of the knights and fell to the floor. “It is no shame that you dare to do this in the name of Libya!”
At the commander’s cry, the two slowly raised their heads. There was no regret or despair in their eyes.
From the beginning until now, he just kept his expressionless expression.
The knight commander clicked his tongue at such a sight.
I couldn’t stay still in the precarious atmosphere that seemed to wield violence at any moment.
“Please let me talk to my sisters for a moment.” “Stand back.”
The knight’s attitude was strong even though he stared intently. The fact that I couldn’t do anything was terrifying.
Soon, the words echoed in the lobby of the mansion that the employees also could not escape the sins of their masters.
The employees were trembling in fear and could not hide their resentment towards the two older sisters who were the culprit in everything.
My heart was pounding wildly with the growing anxiety.
As all the dukes of Libya gathered in the lobby of the mansion, unstoppable footsteps were heard behind Sir Jeronimo’s back.
“It’s really disappointing.”
At the low voice, the knights around them raised a salute. “I see you, the prince and the princess.”
Liliana’s eyes fluttered violently at the appearance of the 1st Prince Reynald Odphelia.
“It’s already messed up. Not fun.”
Princess Blair Odphelia glanced at the mansion once, uttered a sad voice, looked down at the two of them, and smiled.
“No. Isn’t it completely over yet?”
She raised her head at the words addressed to her second sister, Viola.
After opening her mouth a few times, Viola Gnally closed her mouth again and bowed her head.
“In November 575 of the Empire year, an emergency trial begins. Hear the sinners Liliana Libyatan and Viola Libyatan.”
In a serious atmosphere, 1st Prince Reynald opened his mouth.
“Liliana Libyatan touched the ideology of heresy by touching the learning of the demons, which was forbidden in the Empire. That’s not enough, do you admit the sin of selling the Empire’s information by interacting with the demons?”
“….”
The eldest sister, Liliana, did not say anything and kept her mouth shut.
When there was no sign of her mouth opening, Princess Blair, who was next to her, opened her mouth.
“The sinner Viola Liviatan, as the leader of the knights representing the imperial family, dared to act as a spy in the war against the demons and annihilated the knights. Do you later admit that you even committed desertion?”
“….”
The second sister, Viola, also kept her mouth shut. I clasped my hands together in a panic.
‘You have to deny it to the end.’
Unless you confess Grst, the emergency trial will not have much effect, so you will be able to buy time until a formal trial.
After waiting for a while, no answer came from either of them, Raynald and Blair looked at each other and nodded.
“Nothing can be solved by wasting time with silence. We can’t go on like this when there is solid evidence to prove the sins of the two people….”
Raynald patted his chin and said in a sad voice.
“Did you know that the Duke and Duchess have already been taken away because of your sins?”
At Reynald’s words, we were at the same time astonished.
It is only now that I know the whereabouts of my parents, who, until last night, said they would somehow solve this problem.
Following Raynald’s footsteps, Blair mocked the sisters with a laughter-Glled voice.
“I came to you last night and prayed earnestly. All of this is what they commanded them to do, to kill them! To die in vain because of having a wrong child. There will be no other dog death!”
When the ridicule was over, they opened their mouths without waiting. “Ask again. Was it done voluntarily? Do you both admit it?”
“… That’s right.”
Liliana bit her lip with a look of resentment at the answer. “I’m sorry, Viola. I really loved you.”
“… There is no face.”
To Blair’s voice full of joy, Viola erased her shaking eyes and answered.
As the two began to admit their guilt, Raynald added, as if waiting.
“Then do you also admit that you tried to revolt in the imperial family by colluding with the demons?”
Liliana hurriedly shook her head at his words.
“Liliana. You better not lie, even for the sake of your family.”
Then Raynald stroked her cheek with a gentle hand.
Liliana shook her body as if she had been insulted by the action, and then bowed her head.
“Viola led the demon army directly and tried to invade the imperial family, didn’t she? Even so, it was too much to kill all the men of the garrison.”
At Blair’s words, Viola had an angry expression on her face and couldn’t say anything.
“Do you admit it?”
Raynald asked again as if to conGrm, and the two of them could not stand the anger that was rising at him and started shouting desperately.
“Yes, we did. I don’t want to see your arrogant faces anymore, so I tried to kill you by colluding with the demons! I was about to hand over this empire into the hands of the demons!”
At Liliana’s cry, Viola also growled low.
“Is it now? Now that you’ve got the answers you want, you’ll feel refreshed!”
Looking at the older sisters who responded with evil, the two royal families smiled horribly.
“You’re begging me to kill you right now. Are you asking me to kill you as painfully as possible? What would you do if your whole family died
because of you?”
The future of the family rests in their hands.
Liliana and Viola quietly shed tears with their faces stricken with evil. Then, as if he had given up on everything, he Gnally burst into tears. ‘I think it’s really over. There is no hope for the peasants.’
The two of them, who had been crying silently, turned their gazes to the rest of me.
As I looked at the tears-soaked faces of the older sisters, I Glled my fearful heart.
‘I can’t give up like this.’
Now it’s only me who can save those who are standing on the edge of the cliff.
I took a deep breath, shook my head, and walked forward. “I have something to tell you, you two.”
Finally, I tried to Gght until the end.
Hoping that I would be the duke’s last hope, I risked my death to make a deal.
But as soon as I saw Raynald and Blair’s satisGed smiles looking at me, I knew something was wrong.
‘It’s no use.’
In the end, as if it would not be resolved if I came forward, I couldn’t stop the duke family from going extinct, even with a desperate wish.
* * *
I, the Duke of Libya, who was rumored to be the most beautiful mansion in Odphelia, lost its beauty as soon as the duke family was destroyed.
No, this change did not come only to the Duke.
All those who planned the rebellion were captured, but the imperial family could not stop the invasion of the demons.
Odphelia’s army resisted to the end, but in the end, they could not stop the pouring demon army.
The empire was invaded.
A white flag symbolizing surrender was hung in front of the gates of all nobles in the empire, and the imperial family was no different.
The demon chief sitting on the throne looked down at the emperor of Odphilia, who was kneeling with his legs crossed.
Without even raising his head in fear, the emperor trembled and approached the man one step at a time.
Then he stopped right in front of the throne and raised his trembling arms politely.
The emperor of Odphelia directly presented the white flag and the emperor’s crown to the leader of the demon tribe.
As soon as the emperor offered the white flag, the demons mercilessly dragged the kneeling royals outside.
Whether they became food for the demons’ pets or were tortured to death, the only thing that unfolded before them was a tragic death.
Knowing their own fate, those who were being dragged away begged for forgiveness, but no mercy returned.
“Is this the end?”
The person seated on the throne uttered a voice full of joy, and the laughter of the demons around him Glled the quiet hall.
It was the fall of the Odphylia Empire.

Daisy Libyan.
The youngest of the three daughters of the Duke of Libya. I was more special than others in many ways.
Unlike the outstanding sisters of the family, she was weak in body, and she was often compared to them because she was short-tempered.
Because she couldn’t even live in the academy, she gave up going to college, and in the end, she was a solitary princess with no friends around.
But I also had a secret that no one knew about.
It was that he had the ability to glimpse the future through dreams.
And seeing the future unfolding in my dreams due to that ability, I was now in a big shock.
Also, that’s ruined.
My family, the Duke of Libya!
