Aiden felt a bit dazed.
A princess from the Empire? In his prison? And now being pursued by the Gistastonian Secret Police led by Earl Hofman?
He had originally assumed the criminal was probably just an ordinary person almost driven to sell themselves by usurers, never imagining that such a big fish would come in.
"I have heard of your deeds, and judging from the fact that you are being hunted by the secret police, it must be quite close to the rumors, right?" Aiden suppressed the astonishment in his heart and said calmly, "But I didn't expect you to flee to the autonomous state... No, were you originally from the autonomous state?"
"I was born in Pine City because my mother is from the autonomous state, and my father didn't let me obtain Gistastonian citizenship, after all, I'm just an illegitimate daughter," Sera replied.
"If you were a Gistastonian, maybe you would have been sent there after the trial," Aiden responded, "Did your father do this to protect you?"
