Adriana cried for Cyril! That's right!
Other than the relief hug in the forest before being forced to come to the Lord of Miscello's castle, the news just now was as shocking as the previous one. It felt like it hadn't really happened and that Prince Algis was just bragging.
Cyril wondered what exactly was going on.
"Knight Cyril Liechtensee - I order you to come back to the capital with me. The decision about the escape and the faked death will be announced after further investigation!" Prince Algis wore a grave expression. "Until the decision of the trial is announced, you will remain in the custody of the Knights."
Cyril closed his eyes for a moment. This was not as harsh as he had imagined. Still, the decision to return to the capital was not a desirable one. He wanted to ask Prince Algis: Could he still be left "dead"? Cyril's death does not destroy a kingdom. It might be one of the ways for the kingdom to survive.
