"The assassin is Roland! The Undying Roland murdered Empress Maria!"
"People saw him! It was definitely Roland!
Just a moment ago, I had felt that Maria's death would have nothing to do with me even if she died. But now, I was truly astonished.
"Me? What joke is this?"
Before I could respond, hurried footsteps sounded from outside the temporary residence I was in. Dark magic power was also gathering outside as powerful mages made their preparations against me.
"Damn it all!"
Now wasn't the time for me to think. If I really allowed myself to be surrounded, Maria's incredibly angry loyal retainers would never give me any time to explain.
"F*ck! I really fell into such a major pitfall this time!"
Even someone like me couldn't help but curse at the situation.
