章節 995: Chapter 995. Confronting the Culprit

"Everyone agrees that you are the culprit. Are you saying that you are innocent?" Princess Sindral asked. She was wearing her usual mask.

Jack continued to smile. "There are only the three of us here. I know that I won't be able to avoid my fate. At least I want to get this off my chest before you carry out my execution. I hope you don't mind humoring me in my last moment before you take away everything I have."

"I'm afraid I can't overturn the verdict, but we'll hear you speak, Mister Storm Wind," Mason said.

"Thank you, royal advisor," Jack responded.

"Now, I have been doing a lot of thinking in that jail, and all that idle time gave me all sorts of imagination. One such imagination just sorts of stuck in my mind. So, allow me to tell you a tale."

"A tale?" Sindral asked.

"Indulge me, will you, Your Highness? It's my last moment, after all," Jack said.

Mason didn't say anything but he gestured for Jack to continue.
