The Return of the Destruction Level Death Knight Episode 99
Episode 99: Evidence (3)
“majesty! “This incident must never be tolerated!”
Alexander Apple arrived at the royal castle and headed to the throne room with nobles from the same faction.
“How much money was wasted due to the failure of the subjugation, and how many knights were sacrificed!”
The King was listening to Alexander Apple in silence. It was a very sad face.
“No matter how much you are the crown prince, this is something you cannot ignore!”
“i get it. When that child comes back, give him a hard scolding… … .”
“That is not enough.”
Alexander Apple spoke in a stern tone.
“What do you mean?”
“Isn’t it time for Your Highness to acknowledge it? Oliver, that child is not fit for the position of crown prince.”
The King opened his eyes wide. But Alexander Apple didn’t stop talking.
“You have to think calmly. “In the distant future, when that child inherits the throne, will he be able to lead the country?”
The King looked back at the nobles brought by Alexander Apple. All the nobles kept their mouths shut.
It meant that he implicitly agreed with what Alexander Apple said.
“Your Highness, you must make a decision!”
Alexander Apple shouted again. The King sighed deeply.
The king thought for a while before speaking.
“… … You’re right. “Oliver is not fit to inherit the throne.”
When those words came out of the King’s mouth, joy appeared in Alexander Apple’s eyes.
“Dethroning that child from crown prince… … .”
It was then.
“majesty! “Please stop for a moment!”
The door to the throne room opened wide and a group of people came in.
Alexander Apple frowned and shouted after seeing them.
“Oliver? “How are you here?”
“Uncle, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you.”
Alexander Apple couldn’t help but be taken aback by Oliver Apple’s greeting.
My nephew, who was always embarrassed when he was in front of me, suddenly changed.
That confident attitude was slightly annoying.
“You’re so proud of someone who failed to subdue you!”
Alexander Apple did not tolerate his displeasure. No, to be more precise, there was no need to endure it.
“You better be prepared this time! Your Majesty promised to hold you responsible for this failure… … .”
“If it was a subjugation, it was a success.”
Oliver Apple said in a calm tone. At those words, not only Alexander Apple but also the King looked surprised.
“what? Success? “Is that really true?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“what are you talking about. “Didn’t you send me a letter saying you failed?”
“There were circumstances.”
At that time, Alexander Apple shouted as if to stop saying nonsense.
“Where are you telling lies? Your Majesty, you must not be deceived! I’m afraid of taking responsibility for failure, so I say nonsense… … .”
Damian, who had been watching the situation from behind, came forward and turned over a large bundle in front of the King and Alexander Apple.
Thick fangs poured out. The king was astonished at the enormous amount.
“What is this!”
“These are the fangs of the orcs and ogres we killed in this subjugation.”
Damian said, throwing the empty bag behind him.
“As you can see, they are all canines. One for every four pairs. “Do you have any idea how many orcs and ogres we have killed?”
The King looked at Fang with wide eyes. The same was true for other nobles.
“then… … “Why on earth did you post a false report that it failed?”
The King asked with an expression of incomprehension. Oliver Apple raised his voice and answered.
“It was to find evidence to accuse a criminal who had toyed with the country and the royal family.”
“A sinner? “Who on earth is that?”
Oliver Apple pointed to Alexander Apple.
“It’s your uncle.”
At that moment, Alexander Apple’s expression twitched, but he tried to suppress it and spoke in a calm tone.
“Oliver, what do you mean! Why am I a sinner? “Don’t you know how much I devoted myself to my country?”
Oliver Apple gestured. The knights threw three women tied to a rope to the floor.
The moment he saw their faces, Alexander Apple’s face turned pale.
“Uncle, you colluded with warlocks and caused various incidents in the kingdom. “He increased his power and influence in the name of suppressing it.”
Alexander Apple’s eyes twinkled. Soon, he shouted as if it was unfair.
“majesty! It’s a frame! “I have no idea who they are!”
The king had a confused look on his face.
It’s also disconcerting that the subjugation that was thought to have failed was actually successful. Alexander Apple colluded with a warlock.
Alexander Apple was a trustworthy younger brother. The King could hardly believe what Oliver said.
“majesty! Oliver Apple is making up ridiculous lies to avoid responsibility for failing to subdue. You must be arrested immediately and save the face of the royal family!”
“Your Majesty Oliver is right.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Oliver Apple’s back. Alexander Apple looked there and muttered with a blank face.

“… … Sir Liam?”
Liam Bluegreen said in a quiet tone.
“This warlock here admitted to having an affair with His Excellency Alexander Apple before he was captured by me.”
Liam Bluegreen said, pointing to one of the warlocks.
“Lee, Sir Liam! What does that mean! “I am innocent!”
“Your Excellency, there is no use hiding it any longer. “I have already heard it clearly with my own ears.”
If Oliver Apple had been the only one to argue, even Liam Bluegreen joined in.
Liam Bluegreen was one of the few high-class members of the Apple Kingdom and a knight devoted to the royal family.
When such a person defended Oliver Apple, the scales tipped to one side.
“… … Soldiers, listen! Arrest Alexander Apple immediately.”
The king gave an order to the soldiers. The surrounding soldiers began to surround Alexander Apple.
“Your Highness, no, brother! You are making a mistake! “You believe what idiots like that say, not me!”
Alexander Apple desperately protested. But no one listened to that.
Alexander Apple gritted his teeth and looked around. Liam Bluegreen, who saw the scene, said:
“Your Excellency, if you are thinking of calling in the knights, give up. “I have already subdued it.”
Liam Bluegreen said in a calm tone. Alexander Apple shouted with a look of great shock on his face.
“Sir Liam, why are you doing this! “Didn’t you say you would support me?”
“Yes, I did. “I truly thought, Your Excellency, that you were the person responsible for the future of the kingdom.”
“Then why… … !”
“But that doesn’t mean we can’t elect someone who is allied with a warlock as king.”
Alexander Apple had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
“Your Excellency, please be arrested obediently. “It is for your honor.”
Alexander Apple gritted his teeth and looked around. No one took his side.
“… … “It’s all over.”
Alexander Apple sighed and said.
“Are you admitting guilt?”
“It doesn’t seem like anything will change if you don’t admit it. Yes, it’s all true.”
The king stumbled at those words.
“why… … “Why did you do such a thing!”
“Brother, why are you pretending not to know? “My brother is the culprit of everything.”
Alexander Apple twitched one corner of his mouth.
“Think about when you were young. The late King said that he would appoint the best one among the two of us as crown prince. So I worked hard.”
Alexander Apple continued.
“How was your brother compared to me, who was recognized as a knight early on? He was just looking through books in the castle. Anyone can see that I should have ascended to the throne, not my brother. But my father appointed my brother as crown prince.”
Alexander Apple’s voice grew louder.
“Still, it was my father’s decision, so I decided to accept it! I held back! But that idiot… … “Once Oliver was born, my patience ran out!”
Alexander Apple’s eyes turned to Oliver Apple.
“You foolish bastard who wasted your time doing stupid things when you were comfortably crowned crown prince just because you were an only child! But you kept that idiot in the position of crown prince!”
Oliver Apple bit his lip. Hearing my uncle’s inner thoughts for the first time was truly shocking.
“Can you imagine how I felt when I saw that tail? “It felt like lava was boiling inside!”
“… … So he joined forces with a warlock?”
“yes! I borrowed their power to increase my power! We gathered support! Everything… … “Everything was going smoothly!”
Alexander Apple turned to Damien.
“you! You ruined everything! “You are the culprit of everything!”
“Then you did a better job?”
Damian said as if he was annoyed. Alexander Apple’s expression became blank at those words.
“W-what?”
“Maybe we should make a more thorough plan. Why are you taking out your anger on me after failing? “I understand why the previous king did not make you crown prince.”
As Damian continued, Alexander Apple’s eyes turned red.
“… … Be careful what you say. “Do you not know who you are facing right now?”
“We are facing a criminal who committed treason. “There are so many people who will soon go to prison and await execution.”
At that moment, Alexander Apple’s anger reached its peak. He shouted, throwing his hands in the air.
“Back in my hands!”
A sword pierced the wall and entered Alexander Apple’s hand. It was none other than the relic sword Thorn Tree.
“Your Excellency, are you really planning to resist?”
Liam Bluegreen asked with sharp eyes.
“Sir Liam, I think you forgot. “I’m also high class now.”
“Not everyone in the high class is at the same level.”
As the level increased, the gap within it grew.
The ends of the middle class were longer than the ends of the low class. Likewise, the ends of the high class were much longer than that.
Liam Bluegreen reached the high class a long time ago. Since then, he devoted himself to training and became stronger.
He was of a different class from someone like Alexander Apple, who raised his level by borrowing the power of the relic sword.
“Is that really the case?”
There’s no way he didn’t know that, but Alexander Apple was easygoing.
“Idiot. This is not the time to sleep. “Get up quickly.”
Then, all of a sudden, he said something strange.
“Can’t you hear me? I need your strength. “If you don’t wake up now, you both die.”
Liam Bluegreen looked puzzled. No matter how you looked at it, it seemed out of context.
“Who are you talking to right now?” … .”
It was then.
A mouth appeared on the cross guard of the bramble sword held by Alexander Apple.
“Huh, huh!”
“Well, what on earth is that!”
Everyone was startled and took a step back. Liam Bluegreen also looked surprised.
-You idiot, what did I say? I said I never wake up before the sun sets.
“What a fool. Does he look like he might be sleeping right now?”
– Hehe, making a fuss over something that is not a big deal.
The sword was talking. Moreover, Alexander Apple and the sword were talking to each other.
Everyone could not help but be taken aback by the bizarre sight.
But there was just one exception.
‘It wasn’t a relic sword after all.’
Damian quickly figured out the identity of that talking sword.
The feeling of discomfort I felt last time was not an illusion. That’s not a relic sword.
‘It was a magic sword.’
A cursed object called the Devil’s Piece was in front of me.
