"I should have guessed your identity earlier, Demon King. No wonder you refused my initial proposal. You were once the Demon King of the Upper Senate, but you were betrayed by the Mage Nation. I suppose this time, your revenge against the Crown Prince has been planned for a long time. With such deep hatred, I can understand you."
The Second Prince seemed to want to stir up emotions and get close, but Reji waved his hand, indicating that he was exaggerating: "Not to that extent, just a momentary impulse."
Danye: "..."
A momentary impulse, and then slaughtered the Upper Senate of the Mage Nation, and even killed the Crown Prince who had the most hope of inheriting the position of Emperor in the future?
"I'm very curious. My brother's strength is unfathomable. Even I dare not say I can hurt him. And you, you killed him. How exactly did you do it?"
Reji: "Not difficult, just use your younger brother's sword."
Younger brother's... sword?
The Sword of Oath?
"This sword specializes in killing evildoers. When it sees those extremely wicked people, it will take the initiative to attack. When it saw the Crown Prince, this holy sword just flew out directly. Mm... it seems your brother must have done a lot of evil deeds."
Seeing Reji across from him shake his head, seeming a bit sighing, the Second Prince was now making a quick judgment.
So that's how it was...
Indeed, the only thing that could kill the Crown Prince was a Hero's relic. It's just that this Sword of Oath originally had this kind of hidden ability. I have to make a good record of it later.
Reji: "Judging from your complexion, could it be that you're also worried about being hurt by the holy sword because you haven't done few unscrupulous things usually?"
"I'm different from them. I wholeheartedly serve the empire and the people. It's you, Demon King. You have already been captured by Lana now, but from your appearance, you don't seem that nervous?"
"Yeah, I've figured it out. On the way here, Captain Lana gave me a night of ideological education. Now I have deeply reflected on my mistakes and will accept any upcoming arrangements. Right, Lana?"
After Lana left, the Second Prince let out a long sigh. But very quickly, he still felt a vague unease in his heart, feeling that something had gone wrong there.
At this moment, he suddenly recalled a detail.
The fruit juice that the Demon King had placed on the table when he came in seemed to not be ordinary fruit juice. It was the kind that Lana often prepared for him? This kind of fruit juice couldn't be bought on the market. Only his personally trained female attendant, his childhood sweetheart who understood him the most, knew the recipe.
No, no, no.
I must be overthinking or seeing wrong.
In this world, no one understood Lana better than me. She is my childhood friend who could give everything for me. Betrayal simply didn't exist.
Moreover, if Lana really wanted to betray me, if she was being controlled, how could she still take the initiative to propose throwing that Demon King into Stillwater Prison?
Since the establishment of that prison, almost anyone who went in had absolutely no chance of coming out alive.

Shaking his head.
Danye told himself not to think wildly anymore. It was better to hurry and go take care of proper business.
After the Crown Prince's death, although he no longer had any competitors, just in case, he still needed a stage to showcase himself, an opportunity to transform the Crown Prince's death into his own prestige.
This was also why he would agree and quickly hold a Red Moon Judgment for Reji, this runaway criminal Demon King, and throw him into Stillwater Prison.
This was an excellent opportunity.
So this trial would be personally presided over by him. And although it was convened urgently, it still had to be done solemnly, had to be done grandly, had to be done in a way that would make people... remember it vividly.
