The Second Life Liliana
Chapter 39. The judge himself

...🍀🍀🍀...

"Master Count, what's going on?" asked a kstaria outside the tent, he was surprised to see Arsen come out of the tent wearing his robe. Looks like Arsen is intending to leave his place of duty.

"Tell Marquis Xevare, I'll go!" Arsen exclaimed at kstaria.

"But sir count, your duty-"

"Tell him I'll be back, there's an emergency at Geraldine's mansion!" said Arsen leave a message on the kstaria for Marquis Xevare.

Arsen rode his horse in a hurry, he left alone without a bodyguard by his side. Arsen hoped that Liliana would be fine and Adara did nothing crazy.

He remembered Adaire, the woman who was poisoned and stabbed by Adara. Although he was the one who planned the murder, but the one who did it all was Adara. And he didn't want the same thing to happen to Liliana.

"You should be fine Liliana!" muttered Arsen anxiously. He rode the black horse swiftly, in the darkness of the night. His breathing also began to pant with fatigue.

...🍁🍁🍁...

In Max's room, the crown prince's palace. Max is seen sitting by the window, he looks at the night sky without stars. While daydreaming, he let out a long breath.

"It turns out the bedwet girl I met as a kid was her. And he was in the body of the fierce cat, what kind of absurd thing was this? Why did he enter the body of the fierce cat? Totally absurd, it feels hard for me to believe it."

Tok, tock, tock

Someone knocked on the door politely.

"Your majesty!" call Pierre from behind the door.

"Come in" he replied firmly.

Pierre opened the door to Max's room, then he approached Max, who was sitting at the window. The young and handsome man bowed respectfully in front of the crown prince, carrying a paper roll in his hand, "Goodnight, glorious night,"

"What's wrong?" max asked in a lazy voice not welcoming the man.

"Your Majesty, I have come to deliver a message from His Majesty" said Pierre, unrolling the paper in his hand.

Surely your highness won't listen to this, he has already chosen Miss Liliana. But I have to keep saying it.

"What else did he do?" max asks lazily arranged by his father who is always under the control of his stepmother, Queen Freya.

Pierre sighed, then he began to speak, "There are 5 candidates for the crown princess, among them is a princess from the neighboring kingdom, the daughter of the powerful Duke, too-"

"Stop Pierre!" Max trims Pierre's words. He stared angrily at Pierre, then took the scroll from his hand. Max burned the scroll with fire coming out of his finger.

Woshhh~~

"Are they deaf? I already said that I would choose my own crown princess!" max grumbled emotions at the King and Queen.

"Yes-his majesty!" Pierre frantically looks at the letter from the King that Max just burned without seeing the contents. "Your highness, you should have read the letter first," Pierre shook his head.

"You don't have to think about Pierre anymore, I've reduced your load" Max said with a grin. Max sat down by the window and looked up at the sky.

"Your Majesty, what shall I say to the King's emissary if his Majesty burns his letter?" Pierre was afraid of being angered by the King because his letter was burned.

"Say I burn the letter, what's the trouble? If you have nothing else to do, you better get out of here!" he asked the man to come out of the room because he was not in a good mood.

"All right, your majesty, please do not be angry. I have one more piece of news,"

"If it's about the King or the Queen, I don't want to hear it!" Max said with a witty.

"Not your honor, this is information about Miss Adaire Charise Geraldine,"

Max immediately came down from the window, he was interested and approached Pierre. His eyes showed a high sense of curiosity. "Say!"

When Pierre will say the information about Adaire. Someone came and knocked on Max's door.

Tok, tock, tock

"Who?"

"It's my majesty" replied Eugene from behind the door.

Eugene enters the room, saluting Max. He whispered to Max. "What's? He's in a basement?" Max is shocked to hear Eugeme's whisper.

Meanwhile, Liliana and Miley are still imprisoned underground. Liliana continues to provoke Miley into hating Adara and avenging Adara's treatment of betraying her. As Miley begins to be consumed by provocations from Liliana, she says she will seek revenge if she can get out of prison.

"I will take revenge and I will also return the favor of the lady" Miley said sadly.

Very good, not in vain I spoke at length to reach his sympathy.

"I'd love to get you out of here, but what's my day. I can't do it, because I'm in the same prison as you." Liliana looks clear.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" miley is confused.

"If you want to get out of here, maybe I can give you a little advice. I will also help you to get revenge" Liliana said.

"W-What should I do, miss?" miley asked curiously.

Liliana whispered to Miley. The woman nodded in understanding what Liliana said.

Shortly thereafter, Adara comes along with several kstaria prison guards dungeons. They had an interrogation session with Liliana, Miley just kept quiet and looked at her.

Miss Liliana is too brave, she will definitely get hurt. Inner Miley's worried.

Liliana is bound by a chain with a standing position. Adara was there and carrying the whip, she wanted to torture Liliana. "Are you going to admit everything? You stole my brother's necklace?" ask Adara.

"No, I didn't steal," Liliana replied with a grin.

"In these circumstances, you can still be arrogant. My father and my husband, as well as the people in this house, no one will save you. Are you having no problem dying here?" Adara grinned at Liliana.

"You can't kill me, because that would be a problem for you. Your Highness the Duke will punish you" Liliana said with a defiant smile.

"You're so confident!" Adara raised the chin of the girl hatefully. "Well, if you don't want to confess, I'll make you open your mouth,"

"I'm innocent, so I won't admit it!" Liliana was stubborn, she deliberately challenged Adara.

Arsen, father.. Where are you?

Adara whipped Liliana's back mercilessly. The vigilante seemed to have no father or husband there.

Already 9 times Adara whipped Liliana and made her back soaked with blood, but the girl still held back so that she did not scream or cry. "Hem! Ump!!"

Hold Liliana, hold!

"Why are you holding your voice? Let's cry?" Adara whipped the woman again, she could not wait to hear Liliana crying and begging her.

I won't cry, crying will only make her feel like she's winning.

Liliana's body was sweating, her face was pale, she was waiting for Duke Geraldine or Arsen to come soon. "Let's cry!!" Shouted Adara began to be annoyed with Liliana who was silent like a stone, even though the girl had received a loud whip from her.

As he was about to throw his 10th whip, someone held his hand and threw out the whip. "Nadara!" Shouted Duke Geraldine who was already standing behind him and looked at Adara angrily.

"A. dad!" Adara.

Arsen opened the chain and helped the helpless Liliana. He felt sorry to see Liliana's back being soaked with blood. "Tus..lord..."

Why are they so late? I'm not strong anymore.

Liliana fell into Arsen's arms, she was helpless and her legs were very limp. "Lily, are you okay?" arsen asked as he grabbed the woman and looked at her anxiously. "Master Count, thank you," Liliana smiled with relief at Arsen.

The deg!

From a distance was seen a man staring at Arsen and Liliana angrily. Especially when Liliana holds Arsen's hand.
