Everyone Said They Were My Lover in a Dream - Everyone Said They Were My Lover in a Dream chapter 50

Lord of Spirits Vissus (4)

Vissus tightly clenched the wind bead containing the conversation between the Crown Prince and his followers.

“With this bead, I can prove the princess’s innocence!”

He was so eager to rush to where Cladia was immediately.

“But… how?”

Vissus was currently staying at an inn near the imperial palace, where Cladia was.

In order to find evidence that could prove Cladia’s innocence.

However, the trial of Cladia had already begun.

He should have caught the evidence and handed it over to Cladia before that, but it was too late.

“What should I do…”

If the verdict of the trial is confirmed due to the strict laws of the empire, even if other evidence is discovered later and the outcome is reversed, the contents of the verdict will not change.

That’s why Vissus had to enter that trial before the verdict was confirmed.

The problem was that the current Vissus was seen as nothing more than a nobody in the palace.

Originally, Vissus was a knight guarding Cladia, but fearing that the prince might blame Vissus if something went wrong, he was stripped of his position as a knight.

As a result, Vissus was unable to enter the palace where Cladia resided.

According to his plan, he needed to quickly find evidence that could prove the innocence of the princess and somehow contact Cladia to enter the trial.

“Is there no way to infiltrate the trial?”

No matter how much training he had gone through, Vissus, at best, could only exert the strength of an upper-level adventurer.

“Like this, I will… I will lose the princess.”

The confrontation among the royal family was cold.

If the prince were to win the fight for the throne, Vissus didn’t know what he would do to Cladia.

“Sylph…”

-Bzzt?

“Is there no way to enter the trial?”

-Bzzt….

“It seems you won’t do.”

There was no other choice.

Even if he were to be caught and imprisoned in the Empire’s underground prison, he had no choice but to try.

Having made up his mind, Vissus left the inn room.

* * *

“Phew… It’s high.”

Vissus hid himself in the bushes next to the palace wall.

He watched the knights and guards of the palace pass by, and began calculating how to cross the wall using Sylph’s power.

“It seems difficult here… Yes, this spot should be good. Sylph, lift me up.”

Using Sylph’s power, Vissus crossed the walls of the palace several times and entered further inside.

“Just a little more and I’ll be there.”

Great. If I go in this direction from here.

Just as he was about to enter the arena where the trial against Cladia was taking place.

“An intruder?”

Vissus slowly turned his head at the voice behind him.

“Just a little kid.”

There was a wizard there, wearing the typical robe of a wizard and stroking his long beard.

“The royal court’s official wizard…!”

“Hmm? Do you know me?”

Damn it! I’ve been caught!

He was known as the royal court’s wizard who had reached the esteemed level of Circle Seven.

Vissus knew that he couldn’t defeat or escape from such an opponent with his abilities alone.

“I don’t know why such a young spirit mage has sneaked into the palace, but…”

Uwung

Countless magic circles unfolded behind the wizard.

“It wouldn’t be proper to let an intruder who set foot in the palace go unnoticed.”

Kwaang

The pouring magic aimed at Vissus.

“Sylph!”

Kwang kwang.

Vissus summoned the spirit of wind and began to block the attack.

“Kuk!”

However, due to the significant difference in mana, practical experience, and skill between them, Vissus was no match for the mage.

-Beep!

Unable to withstand the mage’s attack, the spirit of wind was dismissed.

Wooong

Chains of magic power emerged from the ground and bound Vissus.

“Although you are quite exceptional for a spirit mage of your age, it’s a pity. But don’t worry, your talent is remarkable, and His Majesty will surely show mercy.”

Even if it means rotting in prison for a few years.

“No, I can’t let that happen.”

This cannot go on like this.

I don’t mind being imprisoned.

But… if that happens, I won’t be able to save the princess!

Whiiing

A fierce wind began to blow around Vissus.

“Huh?”

The concentration of magic power rapidly increased.

The bizarre sight before his eyes left the wizard dumbfounded.

“I can’t be captured like this… I can’t!”

Whoosh!

Zzzt

The magical chains binding the sorcerer’s secretary snapped apart.

Kwoong

And a massive portal opened in mid-air.

“This… this can’t be real.”

The sorcerer’s jaw dropped at the awe-inspiring presence slowly revealing itself within.

“A spirit with this much magical power… could it be… the Spirit King?”

A wind spirit, taking the form of a mature woman, embraced the secretary from behind.

“…Eh? Sylph?”

-Beep!

The beautiful woman before him was completely different from the little girl he knew before.

But the fact that she, Vysis, who was connected to his soul, was being embraced by the Wind Spirit King, Sylph, who was her own spirit, became clear to him.

“How… how is this possible?”

-I’ll explain everything later.

“But… can you speak?”

-We don’t have time for that right now.

“Ah!”

Secretarys, who were stunned by the shocking sight, recalled the purpose of their visit to this place.

The person they needed to save.

“Yeah. Silph, can you help me?”

-Of course. Everything is according to my master’s will.

Kwang

“Defendant Cladia. Do you admit the charges brought against you?”

“The girl…”

The formal trial held inside the palace.

From Noble mtl dot com

It was a special and solemn trial personally presided over by the Emperor of the Empire, as no one from another family could judge the noble blood of the royal family.

“If she admits her guilt here, she will be banished to a small tower in the palace.”

Exile for tarnishing the honor of the royal family and causing a scandal.

It meant that she would be completely eliminated from the succession competition for the Emperor’s favor.

Claudia thought back to her meeting with the Crown Prince in the room where she had been temporarily confined the night before.

“I know that I can’t escape. If you’re as clever as they say, you should know.”

“You…!”

“hehehe. If you admit your guilt in tomorrow’s trial, I’ll let that man you care so much about go.”

“!!!”

“How about that?”

For some reason, the Crown Prince realized that Claudia treated Secretarys differently.

He offered to guarantee the safety of Biserus in exchange for giving up the competition for the imperial succession.

“Biserus…”

At first, he was just a cute child.

I only thought of him as a capable talent suitable for the position.

When did this feeling grow so big in my heart?

“Biserus. If you can stay safe… then, Lady…!”

“Admit the girl’s guilt…”

Just as Claudia was about to admit to the unjust accusation against her,

Boom!

The massive doors of the courtroom burst open.

“Princessssss!”

The cry of the man she longed to see so much reached her ears.

“Biserus? Why?”

The sudden appearance of the intruder made the judge flustered.

“What are the palace knights doing? Capture the intruder!”

Even the emperor, in a daze, gave orders to the palace knights around him instead of the prime minister.

“Oh, no…”

Seeing Biserus again, and knowing that he had come all the way here to save her, made her happy.

But to invade the palace directly.

That was certainly not a problem that could be taken lightly.

No matter how well it was solved, the crime of escaping from the underground prison of the palace was a serious offense that could not be avoided.

To think that Vissus would end up like this.

I couldn’t just leave it alone.

Ugh.

“Kk!”

Cladia unconsciously raised her hand to activate magic, but she fell to the ground in severe pain due to the magic seal that restrained her arm.

“Princess!”

Kwoong.

As Vissus witnessed that scene, his emotions fluctuated, and the king of the wind spirits appeared behind him.

Ooong.

As a presence of a different caliber arrived, everyone around was overwhelmed by an oppressive aura.

Even the knights who were rushing towards Vissus were stuck to the ground under the pressure.

“To have such power… could it be… the king of the spirits?”

“How can a human… be the king of the spirits?!”

All the members of the palace, being powerful figures, had the opportunity to see numerous spirit users, but they had never seen a being of such different caliber.

“Vissus… you…”

Step by step,

Amidst the silence,

Vissus slowly walked towards Cladia.

“Why are you here…?”

“I am the Princess’s knight, after all.”

Secretaryus smiled brightly at Cladia, facing her directly.

“I have come to rescue you, my Princess.”
