Morris III's words successfully frightened everyone present, including Nancy, whose thoughts paused for about half a second before she reacted.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" The patriarch of the Black Flame Crystal Family wanted to appear tougher.
"Where is your king! I heard from my daughter that you have a new queen! Let her come to see me. You unfaithful people have no right to talk to me!" Morris III also behaved very tough at this moment. While he was speaking, his hand was already on the hilt of the sword, as if he would draw the sword in the next second if someone said something that made him unhappy.
"That's not our queen at all, she is a regicide!" A member of the Sawblade family in the hall stood up and raised his voice.
But just as he finished speaking, the door of the hall was pushed open. The person who pushed the door was Elena Scare, the legitimate heir to the Scare royal family!
Elena's appearance caused the already emotional hall to go completely out of control.
"King...King Killer!" A fearless young knight suddenly shouted these three words to Elena.
Elena stood at the door of the hall and glanced at everyone present without saying a word. Some of the nobles who were stared at by Elena showed guilty expressions, while others showed hysterical anger.
"Soldiers! Capture this regicide!" Some nobles began to order the soldiers to capture Elena.
The Scarre soldiers who were in charge of guarding the hall surrounded them instantly. General Hubert had already reminded Elena of this scene. In the eyes of some people, Elena's throne was unorthodox.
But what does that matter
"Stand back." There was a hint of suppressed anger in Elena's voice. This emotional mobilization was told to Elena by Lu Cheng.
"When those nobles do bad things, think about how they treated your mother."
When Lu Cheng said this, Elena could feel her anger surging inside her.
The soldiers who were originally rushing forward with weapons in hand, retreated uncontrollably after hearing Elena's order, and finally stuck to the wall.
This is the power of the Holy Crystal to give absolute command to the seal holders and those without seals!
Elena is a monarch recognized by the Crystal Spirit, and her orders are far more effective than those of any other monarch in Skarre's history.
"You...you traitor who stole the earth's divine power..." Before the noble could finish his words, Elena gave a second order to everyone present.
The most appropriate order to be issued in this situation is to kneel down. But, adorable Lena has already decided to abolish this bad habit of kneeling down, so...
"Stand at attention." Elena gave an order that most people present could not understand.
Lovely Lianna knew what standing at attention meant. The action that materialized in her mind spread out with the holy crystal in her hand as the center.
The nobles and soldiers in the hall suddenly uncontrollably assumed a very standard military posture.
"Are you the new king chosen by God?"
Maurice III looked at the nobles standing in military posture around him, clapping his hands and walking towards Elena.
Seeing this stranger who could move within her 'command' range, Elena took a step back with some caution.
Before Elena could ask about the identity of Maurice III, General Hubert, who was following Elena, came forward and saluted on her behalf.
"I didn't expect that Your Majesty Maurice would visit here at this time. Unfortunately, we need to deal with some internal affairs and cannot entertain you for the time being." General Hubert said.
"It's okay. I have enough patience, and I really want to see how you can calm the anger of the people under the guidance of God."
Morris III took the initiative to give up his seat to Elena, and Elena took a deep breath and raised her arms.
The Crystal Spirit Skarre appeared in the air above the hall, colorful feathers slowly falling down, accompanied by brilliant light... This scene really looked like the arrival of a god.
In a sense, the Crystal Spirit can be considered a limited edition god of Skarre.
However, this god was the God of Judgement. It landed on the head of a noble, and the tail feathers behind it lit up.
"Four counts of condoning murder, seven counts of hiring someone to kill, and burning down three houses... sentenced to death." The Crystal Spirit made the verdict in an emotionless tone.
The noble wanted to speak out to explain himself, but under the power restrained by the ruler, he couldn't even speak. The expression on his face was almost distorted because of excessive fear.
The Crystal Spirit judged all the nobles in the hall one by one. In the end, there were forty-three people in the hall, including twenty-one soldiers, twenty-two nobles, and thirty-seven of them were guilty.
"Your Majesty, I... I only killed a disobedient slave!" After being released from his confinement, a noble tried to beg for mercy from Elena.
"From today on, Scarre will no longer own slaves." Elena made this declaration, which even attracted the attention of Maurice III.
… … …
"I didn't expect you to come back this way, my sister."
Mela clapped her hands on the long table in the hall. She was also one of the many innocent people. It should not be said that she was completely innocent, but her crime did not deserve the death penalty.
The Crystal Spirit still hovers over Meera's head, recalling some of the crimes she committed in the past.
The most serious crime Mela had committed in the past was attempting to subvert the state, which is treason, but this crime seemed unimportant at this time.
"Your sister is feeling irritable due to her aging, and the wrinkles on her face are the reason for her irritability now." The Crystal Spirit revealed some of Mela's secrets while testing her.
"I take care of myself regularly! Now is not the time to argue about this." Meera stared at her sister.
"Elena! Do you know how much extra resources it would cost to turn all those slaves into civilians? If you sentence the patriarchs of the three major families to death, the entire Skare will most likely fall into even greater chaos."
Mera now realizes that she is a prisoner, but her desire to revitalize Skarre has not diminished because of becoming a prisoner.
At least before going to jail, Mela wanted to find out what her sister wanted to do.
"I think we can afford it, sister, but in terms of management... there should still be manpower." Elena said this with some unconfidence.
She had come all the way here following the advice of Lu Cheng and General Hubert. Now she had arrested all the old nobles who had committed serious crimes. Soon these old nobles would be publicly tried, and the protesting people would get an explanation.
"Maybe there is a solution to this situation." Hearing this, Mera bit her nails and her brain began to think rapidly, thinking about how to save Scarre's situation.
In the end, Meila came to the conclusion of compromise.
