When Alexander heard Lisanna mention this matter, his face gradually turned cold. He was silent for a while and said: "Impossible."
"Why?" Lisanna took a step forward: "Don't you miss the old relationship at all?"
"Love is love, law is law. If that woman Enelise violated the laws of the empire, she must accept the sanction of the law!" Alexander said firmly.
"What about Regnar back then? He was a hero of the empire, why did you want to kill him?" Lisanna asked.
"I said, his existence will threaten mankind, and for the sake of mankind, I must kill him!" Alexander replied: "And, Inelise is Inelise, Regnar is Regnar, you Don’t confuse them! You have no idea how many innocent people Inelise has killed in the past few years! This woman has almost reached the point of being anti-human!”
"She fell into this state because of you and Alfred!" Lisanna raised her voice: "Don't put all the problems and all the responsibilities on others here! All these things happened long ago when Regnar killed Ned. It should be over when Hogg comes! The culprit of today's situation is you! No one else!"
Alexander looked at Lisanna seriously, and then said word for word, "I am for humanity and for the empire."
"So?" Lisanna sneered: "How many people have you killed with such a high-sounding reason?"
"..." Alexander remained silent.
"Don't want to answer? Then let me tell you." Lisanna pressed forward step by step: "Joffrey."
"You!" Alexander's eyes flashed fiercely when he heard the name. He took a step forward, and even subconsciously inspired fighting spirit.
It can be said that Joffrey is Alexander's Achilles' heel. On the one hand, the eldest prince is Alexander's biological brother, and brother-killing is a heinous crime no matter how you say it. On the other hand, and the most important thing is that Alexander's only purpose in killing Joffrey was to successfully seize the throne, which was different from him killing Regnar. Because Regnar's death was for all mankind, and Joffrey's death, although from an indirect point of view, gave the people of the empire a wiser king. But indirectness is indirect after all. No matter how well Alexander has done over the years, he still cannot get rid of the condemnation of his conscience.
Therefore, when Lisanna mentioned this name, Alexander's few reverse scales were finally touched.
But Lisanna didn't care about Alexander's sudden increase in momentum. She just looked at Alexander with cold eyes, and the latter gradually withered under her gaze.
"..." Lisanna looked at Alexander silently, and couldn't help but sigh at the care she took for him over the years. This man is as tall and handsome as he was more than ten years ago. Only the maturity and vicissitudes between his eyebrows can confirm his age. When the two of them first met more than ten years ago, Lisanna felt that this man was the most dazzling sunshine in her life. Perfect appearance, perfect conduct, perfect character, perfect person. However, all this is just the past. Although his appearance has not changed much from that of decades ago, Lisanna always feels that the person in front of her is so strange, so strange that it is as if she is seeing him for the first time.
The two stared at each other in silence for a moment. In the end, Lisanna could only reluctantly admit the irreversible changes that had occurred in this man. After realizing this, Lisanna also understood that no matter how much she tried to persuade her, Alexander would never let Enelise go. She sighed softly, and then said to Alexander: "I originally thought that you were the sun in my life."
"I..." Alexander wanted to say something, but Lisanna didn't seem to want to hear any answer at all. After she said this, she turned around and prepared to leave.
"Where are you going?" Alexander felt inexplicably flustered when he saw Lisanna leaving, so he asked almost involuntarily. Where else to go? Hasn't she been taking care of her father in the palace all these years? It’s just that I don’t see myself.
"Go home." Lisanna's answer did not surprise Alexander.
Alexander did not dwell too much on this issue. He just stared at Lisanna with an ugly expression and suddenly asked: "I don't remember that I gave you the pendant around your neck."
Lisanna stopped in her tracks, raised the pendant around her neck and said, "This? This is a gift from Regnar."
After Lisanna finished speaking, she left without looking back, and behind her, Alexander furiously destroyed everything he could see.
…
A few days later, it was the day of Inelise's execution. It was a beautiful and sunny day. Just like the time when Regnar was executed ten years ago, the residents of Merindel came to both sides of the parade street. They prepared enough rotten eggs and rotten cabbage to "send off" The cursed girl.
Compared to Regnar, their hatred for Inelise may be stronger. Although Regnar caused greater catastrophe at that time, the time was quite short. But Enelise is different. The shadows she leads have been doing evil and killing innocent people indiscriminately for ten years. The empire has reported countless atrocities in recent years, so all civilians hate this organization that prevents them from enjoying a peaceful and prosperous age. Today the leader of this organization was finally captured, which also made the civilians of the empire let out a bad breath.
Bang! Bang!
The rotten eggs of stone cabbage fell on Inelise like raindrops, but Inelise was completely unaware of it. Her eyes were dull and dull, as if she was an empty shell that had lost its soul.
"Revenge... revenge... revenge..." Inelise murmured in a voice that only she could hear.
"You killed my child!" A tall middle-aged man broke through the guards and stood in front of the Enelise prison car. He held a hatchet in his hand and shouted loudly: "You bitch! Why is this?! Why don’t you even let a three- or four-year-old child go?”
Enelise seemed to have come back to her senses. She raised her head and looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Children aged three or four? I have killed too many. How can I tell which one is yours?"
After hearing what Inelise said, the civilians became even more angry. They threw filthy objects at Inelise frantically, hoping to smash this inhumane woman to death.
"You might as well tell me what your son looks like!" Inelise said loudly to the middle-aged man who was pulled down by the guards: "In this way, I might be able to say hello to him for you after I get to hell! Hahahahaha! "
After getting rid of the sluggishness, Enelise seemed to be a different person. She loudly taunted the civilians who scolded her, and even cursed them with countless vicious jokes. In this way, Enelise came to the guillotine amidst everyone's angry condemnation.
"Daughter of the Curse, Inelise Light, I now use the king's..." Alexander, who stood on the high platform of the square, began the trial.
"Put away those high-sounding words, you despicable villain!" Inili interrupted Alexander's speech without politeness. She shouted with red eyes: "I killed those people! I won't deny it, They deserve to die! Everyone deserves to die! Especially you! These stupid pigs watching the show!"
"Kill her! Kill her!" the crowd shouted in unison.
"In that case..." Alexander took a deep breath, and then waved his hand to the executioner.
"I will damn you in hell forever! Forever!!" Inelise screamed in her last moments of life.
Ding!
The blade of the guillotine flew out before it fell. Everyone looked in shock, only to find that a slender one-handed sword was fixing the blade on the ground of the square.
"This sword is..." Alexander was stunned when he saw the long sword, and then his face suddenly changed: "Blast?!"
