Chapter 421 For Justice

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Even if many people thought her statement was a little strange, most didn't really give it too much thought.

After all, there was no lack of injustice in the world, and many 'celebrities' would say similar grand standing words from time to time, but there was rarely any follow up effect.

Most of them participated in a few charities and moved on with their careers, if that.

Of course, while some really did it only for publicity, it wasn't as if there was no one in the world with good intentions. But it didn't take them long to discover the 'futility' of their actions.

With her newfound popularity, there was no lack of people willing to decipher her every word and action, and while many who already disliked her took the opportunity to ridicule her, most of her new fans were still full of support.

"Although she seems a bit too na?ve when saying such unrealistic things, I can't help but be a little convinced that she means it!"

Of course, when pressed for arguments, Emilia's side was weak and unresponsive, and could only counter with praising her looks and talent due to the lack of any other material.

"Even if her words are innocent and na?ve, her heart is unarguably sincere, is it not?"

Naturally, some didn't bother 'reasoning' at all, and directly attacked those who dared mock their newfound 'princess'. Just hundreds of these 'knights' had been enough to overwhelm the situation with sheer passion, but now that the number had increased many fold, puny things like reasoning and logic didn't bother them at all.

Surprisingly enough, though, the White Deer's representatives didn't seem to respond or try to manage the image of their little princess at all, and some people couldn't help but speculate.

"Did she fall out of favor after speaking out against her family like that?"

"Not only is she arrogant, but also ungrateful!"

The negativity suddenly surged, and Emilia's newfound fans couldn't help but fight back furiously.

"No way, did our little princess offend anyone? She just played a role in a show and won a polo match. What's with all this slander all over the place?"

"Anyone can see this is all planned marketing by someone who doesn't want her to look good. Whether it's attacking her family indirectly or the princess herself, though, I'm not sure."

Of course, those who sympathized with her were extremely dissatisfied with the White Deer family as well, and they couldn't help but wonder if the 'super doting older sister and parents' were really so quick to change their face. If so, how could they deserve the affection of their princess? Thinking of how wronged their little princess must feel, they couldn't help but be distressed.

No one knew, however, that the most dissatisfied of them all was actually this 'older sister' herself.

It was one thing for her little sister to not allow them to defend her from slander, but when she thought about the girl leaving them soon as well, Sam really couldn't hold her temper anymore.

To think she would fly in a hurry all the way from the capital to hear these kinds of words!

Looking at the tall girl stomping her feet petulantly, Emilia could only smile and reach out to hold her hand helplessly. "Why are you so angry, big sis? It's not like I'll be gone for long. And didn't you already agree before?"

The older girl couldn't help but pout. "I-I might have agreed before, but now that you're really about to leave, I realize that I really can't stand it at all."

Emilia sighed as she pulled her into an embrace. "It's only for a while. I'll be back before you know it, okay?"

With her soft and cute little sister coaxing her like that, there was no way Sam could stay dissatisfied, so she could only hum in agreement reluctantly.

In the Blue Dawn Republic, a storm was surging beneath the gloomy clouds that covered the heart of the country.

Even before the first day they had seen Emilia on TV, there had been plenty of rumors and pamphlets passed around, but no one dared to believe them.

After all, even if some rich girl from another country came here, it would not be without reason. And whatever that reason was, what did it have to do with them?

Whether her arrival was for satisfying her curiosity or to advance some agenda of her parent company, no one thought it would make their lives any better.

The ones who plunged them into this chaos were the same type of people after all.

For those at the bottom, there was no difference between the top-ranking corporations of the world, whether it be Gray Wolfe, Black Tiger, or White Deer.

They might have different philosophies and methods, but at the end of the day, they only had a single goal - maximum profit.

How could such people consider what it felt like to be in the position of a commoner in the Blue Dawn Republic, let alone really sympathize with them?

Of course, the efforts of Noelle's people weren't in vain, and they were still able to slightly soften their rigid judgment before the first episode aired.

With her performance and aura in 'The Princess, the Witch, and the Frog', Emilia tried her best to convince them of her nature and sincerity, causing their judgment to further crack.

And when her decisive words after her match were broadcast live, their skepticism really almost shattered.

There was no hint of falsehood in the girl's eyes, and she seemed ready to give up anything to realize her ideals.

Maybe, just maybe, it would be fine to entrust their hopes to this girl once.

After all, they didn't have much to lose.

A few days later, the news of the arrival of the 'princess' spread throughout the country's capital, and many people huddled together outside the airport to witness her arrival.

The private jet landed safely, and the crimson-haired beauty that exited the airport couldn't be mistaken for anyone else at all.

She really came!

Emilia smiled as she waved at the people watching her with fiery eyes from a distance, looking both ragged yet full of energy.

They didn't dare to cheer, but the fire in their eyes intensified.

"Miss Emilia, welcome to the Blue Dawn Republic! May I have the pleasure of escorting you today?"

Her smile didn't fade away under the glare of the government officials and security of the Blue Dawn Republic, and she greeted her 'escort' with a smile. "Hi. Thank you, please lead the way."

Looking at his sleazy yet condescending smile, she couldn't help but miss her little girlfriends more and more.

Of course, not to mention anyone else, she hadn't even been able to bring Noelle along.

It wasn't that she wouldn't have any help here, but there just wouldn't be many familiar faces, and she couldn't help but feel a little lonely when she thought about it again.

Obviously, they had already discussed everything with her friends and family in advance. So although there was some disappointment when she left, they weren't really too shocked, only worried.

After all, it wouldn't be long before they reunited again, and they couldn't break Emilia's wings just because they didn't want her to fly away. But what if she was bullied by outsiders?

Of course, Emilia was still able to temporarily assure them somehow, but she knew it wouldn't be long before they got worried again. Aside from being a little helpless, she couldn't deny the surge of warmth in her heart.

Meanwhile, when the news of Emilia's arrival in the Blue Dawn Republic became public, it inevitable caused another storm of furious discussions.

Although some had speculated, no one really dared to believe that this little girl would try to meddle in such a matter. When even major corporations and governments tacitly agreed to ignore it, what gave this 'child' the guts to try pulling off such a stunt?

Not to mention offending the Gray Wolfe and the Black Tiger, this was directly challenging the authority of the government!

Even if the Blue Dawn Republic wouldn't really be too ruthless considering her background and lack of ability to really pull anything off, this was still a nonsensical move from a seemingly smart girl.

After all, how can someone so talented be dumb?

It was only then that they realized that this girl probably meant each and every word that she spoke in her interview that day.

Aside from fresh waves of shock and ridicule, many couldn't help but express their admiration.

"Although it's unlikely that anything will happen to her, I can't help but admire her for being willing to give everything up for her ideals."

"Does she really plan to seek some form of 'justice' for the people in the Blue Dawn Republic? What is she going to do?"

"Beg the government, probably? I'd say it's na?ve, but I think it's still quite brave of her to do so, especially without her family's support."

Naturally, where there was support, there was also an increasingly large amount of ridicule.

"Of course, when you're rich, young, and beautiful, you really think you can do anything, huh? It's like the rules of the world don't even matter, do they?"

"I wonder when she will regret not listening to her family and rebelling by herself? If they really cut off her pocket money, would she still be able to be so willful and fly around the world like this?"

Of course, while people fought fiercely all over the place, there was no one more shocked about it all than one Alexander Gray, who was currently questioning everything in his life.
