CAN I GO BACK ?
CHAPTER 21
" How is this lady? " Sabil said in panic.
" Call my brother's assistant, I want to hear more. " Say Alexia.
" Good lady. But, what about your plan to go out of the mansion together with Lady Agnes and Young Master Robert? " Sabil answered obediently and asked about Alexia's plan to leave the mansion.
Alexia was silent she was thinking.
| If I don't come out now, Agnes won't meet with Lais. Then I have to stay out, so Agnes can meet Lais.| Thought Alexia.
Alexia does not care about her brother's problems, because she thinks that her brother is just a character novel that will someday be forgotten by her.
Besides, Yustaf's destiny is like that.
He does not care about anyone's destiny, he only cares about how to make Killian a tyrant and sit him on the throne, and run the plot according to the novel even though the plot has changed a lot.
| To be honest, I admit that I am a bad person. Because I don't care about my own brother. | Thought Alexia.
" lady?! " Call for Sabil, who waits for an answer from Alexia.
Alexia came to her senses from her thoughts, and she immediately decided.
" I'm going to stay out, lest Agnes and Robert find out about my brother's problem. " Say Alexia.
" So, you're going to stay out even if you're in this situation? " Task Sabil in a tone of disbelief.
" Yes Sabil. I know, that you think that I don't care about my brother. Actually, I did this to divert my brother's case so they wouldn't worry. " Say Alexia lied.
Sabil nodded in understanding, he immediately went to call Assistant Yustaf who had just returned home.
...----------------...
Western continent.
In a cold, dark prison room, Yustaf was locked up there.
He was placed in a special prison for nobles, although the prison is not too bad. Still, Yustaf was not familiar with the place.
" I don't know what's going on, but it's definitely not me." Yustaf Mum.
| Although it was proven that I was innocent, the government of this continent did not release me easily, before I could bring the antidote. Because the law here is very different from the law in the kingdom of Lamond. | Thought Yustaf.
" How could he put poison into the wine, even though I have checked it repeatedly. There was no reaction after I drank it. " Yustaf thinks hard.
He would not have expected that he would be held up like this because of his poisonous wine.
" I've sent my assistant Fanny back to Lamond, so she can find an antidote to the poison. Because the sorcerer I was with said, if the poison came from Lamond." Yustaf kept thinking in the middle of the situation.
Yustaf also suspected, that all this had something to do with the King along with his loyal followers.
" I know that Pollin hates me, because I'm already the guardian of Killian. "
| I do not regret being the guardian of the child, for the child has no sin whatsoever and he has no right to be treated as such simply because he was born from the womb of a servant. | Inner Yustaf.
" If I get out of here I'll investigate everything. " Yustaf determined.
In the silence of the prison, Yustaf did not forget to think of his sister Alexia. He did not know what fate would befall him, whether he could come out or end up in execution.
" Alexia? are you worried now? I hope you're not worried about me, because you're going to try to put all my skills and people in search of the antidote. So I can go home and stroke your head. " Yustaf thinks of Alexia.
" May Fanny get the antidote, because the western government only gives 2 days. " Yustaf hope.
...----------------...
Alexia's living room.
But her left eye clearly looks very pretty.
Her face was so beautiful, she was Fanny Zeyyen. Who is Yustaf's personal assistant.
" I'm facing Lady Alexia. " Say polite.
Alexia who was sitting, she immediately let Fanny sit down and told her everything.
" Sit down, Fanny, I want to hear the full story of why my sister could be accused of carrying poison. " So Alexia was serious.
" Good Lady, I'll tell you. " Say Fanny as she sits.
Fanny who was already sitting down, she then spoke and told him everything.
" At that time, Duke Yustaf will sell his wine, there are approximately 35 thousand barrels of wine, Duke only sells wine to the western continent for about 7 thousand barrels and the rest will be sold to the southern continent. " Fanny told me.
" But, when the 7th barrel was brought to the western continent and consumed by the buyer, the next day all who consumed the wine were exposed to severe skin diseases. The sorcerers who were there began to be suspicious of the wine brought by the duke, so they took the wine stamps and tested it. "
" It's proven that the wine my brother brought was poisonous? And they took the splinters of those affected by the skin disease and matched them with the poison that was in my brother's wine? "Alexia pretended to guess when she knew.
" Yes, your guess is correct. The government there immediately put Duke Yustaf in jail, but you don't have to worry too much. Because he was still placed in a decent place because of his high title, the party still respected him. " Say Fanny.
| Why would I feel if Lady Alexia wasn't like a 14-year-old. Lady Alexia is more mature than I thought she was older than me. | Thought Fanny.
" Why did you come back? " Ask Alexia.
" In fact, before I came here, I had caught the man who had put poison in the wine, but the man committed suicide by biting his tongue. "
" There is already evidence that the duke is innocent of the charge of carrying poison, as that person is proof. Even so, the government there still did not want to release the duke before the duke brought the antidote from the poison. " Fanny explained seriously.
" I came here to find an antidote to the poison. " Say Fanny.
" Is the poison from Lamond? " Ask Alexia.
Alexia does not know where the poison came from and who is behind this conflict, because in the novel it is not told who the mastermind is. Alexia also did not read the novel until it was finished, she only read the novel until Killian met the female lead.
| After all, I will also die at the age of 19 for helping Killian in killing the King and Queen. So, I don't care about the mastermind. But, I suspect that the king is behind this conflict. | Thought Alexia.
" Yes, the witch brought by the duke said that the poison is purely based on Lamond, because Lamond is an area where many poison plants are scattered. "
" How long is it given? " Ask Alexia.
" 2 days." Fanny.
" That means you used teleportation magic to get here quickly? " Ask Alexia.
" Yes Lady, since the passing of the 2 days the duke cannot come out, he will be executed if he does not give the antidote. " So Fanny said softly.
" Then quickly find the antidote, hopefully the remaining time is enough to find the antidote. " Say Alexia.
" Good Lady, I will try my best. " Say Fanny.
| Yes, try. Because you'll never get that antidote. And time is up. | Thought Alexia.
| My brother will be executed, even his body hanged at the border gate of the continent. It is told in the novel. All those who fail to prove themselves guilty will be executed and their bodies hanged at the border gate for example. | Thought Alexia who remembered the novel part.

" Why are you forcing me to be king, when I don't want to be king, because being king will only make me suffer. Besides, I have much to sacrifice in order to become king. There is no profit I get. "
