Don't confiscate my identity as a human race

Chapter 500 - 479

From now on, every sentence in the conversation between Duchess Cloris and Principal Rocky carries significant weight!

There was a video in Lanci’s room.

But Cloris and Xido knew about it too.

Cloris said these words in front of the Video Magic Device, aware that this conversation would be recorded and would also be a piece of evidence to Lanci, as a proof of sincerity.

The content inside the Display Crystal Stone ended in a short time, and the entire Franklin Hall was in an uproar.

They also couldn’t distinguish truth from falsehood now.

If what Duchess Cloris said is true, and Duke Morotian of the imperial capital Herram has been manipulated by a Puppet controlled by the Miss Duchess for a long time, then who is the Duke Morotian sitting here now?

Their gazes shifted back to Duke Berenhald again, this time with evident mistrust and disbelief.

Even the nobles sitting next to Duke Morotian began to feel uneasy, fearing that the Duke next to them might suddenly turn into the Black Robe Apostle depicted in the video showed by Sigrid!

"Obviously, it was Assistant Professor Xido Allendale who deceived my daughter, and now he has fled because of his crime. Cloris has also lied to you all. There was never a Puppet to replace me."

The turmoil of people’s hearts finally made Duke Morotian frown, he claimed loudly.

His steady aura brought a temporary calm to the situation again.

Upon witnessing the sudden personal appearance of Rocky McCarthy, Morotian could almost be certain that Rocky McCarthy was the invader causing the final chaos in the Northern Tundra!

Although Rocky McCarthy’s behavior still seemed neutral, and he did not appear to be deliberately making things difficult for him, he currently had no evidence to prove that Rocky McCarthy was the Saint of Hegemony.

But there is no need for proof now.

Just like Rocky McCarthy now knew that he was the Black Robe Apostle.

Both sides had no evidence, but both knew the truth.

Duke Morotian restrained the impulse to kill Rocky with force. On this stage at this moment, he had to play a game with Rocky.

The real trouble with Rocky McCarthy was not his combat power but his ability to manipulate people’s hearts.

This video, lacking substantial evidence, was useless in identifying the Black Robe Apostle in the previous picture.

But it was exactly what made everyone feel uneasy and encouraged people to start doubting, distancing, and fearing him, Morotian!

In the hall, Rocky McCarthy’s question and Morotian Berenhald’s brief action once again brought the situation to a standstill.

Even if the content of the picture was heavy, Duke Berenhald’s response was also a reasonable explanation, at least as long as there was no further evidence, the Duke could hold his ground.

Everyone was trying to analyze the situation in the next second, trying to understand the truth.

"Mr. Rocky, what is your purpose and intent in showing this picture at this moment?"

Though they believed Duke Morotian’s words were becoming more like slander, how could Rocky McCarthy be the Saint of Hegemony.

But Rocky McCarthy at this moment had fallen silent, not immediately refuting Duke Morotian.

"Do you dare admit it? Rocky McCarthy."

Morotian further pressured Rocky McCarthy, eyeing him as if he wanted to pierce that mask.

Sigrid, the Bishop of Hegemony, glared at Duke Morotian as well.

She couldn’t bear the Duke’s deceitful maneuvers for a single second.

Duke Morotian had preemptively struck out, made the first move, cunning and treacherous, and put them in a disadvantageous situation instantly.

Because it was indeed a fact that was difficult to acknowledge and refute!

Sigrid knew better than anyone that her Saint hated lying.

As long as Rocky McCarthy admitted it, his imperial career was practically over – the Protoss Empire wouldn’t let him and the Hegemony Church monopolise power!

Even if he didn’t admit it, the people of the empire would still be wary of them both because of Duke Morotian’s words at this moment.

No matter what, Duke Morotian’s scheme to spite their Hegemony Branch had already been successful; the only difference was in its degree of impact.

A few seconds passed.

Rocky McCarthy, whom Duke Morotian accused, was still not speaking in defense of himself, which made everyone increasingly bewildered.

Until they saw Rocky McCarthy finally react.

Surprisingly, he did not deny or avoid suspicion at this point but openly directed his gaze at Sigrid and even smiled at her.

"What if it’s so, do you think I would not admit it? Duke Morotian, I do not know the consequences of acknowledging it, but I know that denying it at this point would disappoint her."

Lanci stated his intention directly.

Sigrid instantly faltered and hastily turned her head away in confusion.

"What the... what’s going on..."

She pursed her lips and mumbled internally.

We agreed we would pretend not to know each other on this stage.

Looking at her suddenly like that, she had no idea how to act.

For a moment, the congress hall erupted into hushed, rushed exchanges everyone was unclear about the relationship between Rocky and Sigrid.

At least it didn’t seem like the relationship between a Saint and a Bishop!
