The royal family's response was lengthy.
They first denied the accusations shown on the advertising screens, claiming the evidence was fake. They then shared a stirring statement to sway the emotions of the Alliance people, hinting at the involvement of the Alliance Army and the Academy, suggesting it was their plot to tarnish the royal family's reputation.
The post concluded with a demand for the rumormongers to cease immediately, threatening legal action.
Seeing the royal family's firm denial and their vow to defend their honor, along with their tough stance against the rumor spreaders, many who had previously criticized them started to back down.
The influence of royalists within the Alliance was significant. Despite the royal family's waning influence in recent years, they were still a force not to be trifled with by ordinary people.
