Chapter 776
At that point, Registus nodded slightly in front of the camera. It had to be said that he was skilled in acting and knew how to feign innocence.
With just a few simple sentences, he managed to distance himself from his guilt and give people the
illusion of a clean and faultless leader.
He seemed innocent, pitiful, and righteous. He was like the embodiment of a perfect monarch without any flaws.
The news report was not long.
However, in those brief minutes, it immediately caused a massive uproar within Florence and even globally like a Category 5 hurricane.
The Wolf King, Andrius Moonshade…
After just achieving a major victory, everyone thought that the Wolf King’s reputation would reach a new peak, and he might even become a “divine figure” of Florence. After all, he had accomplished magnificent feats of god with the body of a mortal.
Unfortunately…
As soon as the news broke, since it was broadcast nationwide simultaneously, it pushed Andrius into the eye of the storm.
“I didn’t know he was that kind of Wolf King!”
“He’s a traitor to the country. It doesn’t matter even if he’s the Wolf King!”
“Since he committed treason, there’s nothing to say. If the evidence is solid, then he should be executed mercilessly!”
“I was wondering how the Wolf King was able to agree to a peace treaty so quickly and even demand one third of the Western Nations‘ territories as compensation. It turns out he had ambitions of rebellion all along.”
“The Wolf King should be punished for his crimes, and the trial be broadcast worldwide. Bring him into the light!”
Half a minute later, a barrage of negative comments about the Wolf King flooded in, occupying all the comment sections and targeting the Wolf King. It would not be hard for someone attentive to realize that the narrative was being steered in a certain direction deliberately.
Unfortunately, there were few who remained calm and thinking independently among the masses. Most just followed the herd mentality.
Nevertheless, amidst the storm of criticism, the opposite narrative also emerged.
Many citizens who believed in the Wolf King, particularly those in the Western region or those who enjoyed peace near the borders, started to defend him.
“The Wolf King couldn’t have rebelled It’s like how the Florence football team will never lose to top–tier opponents in the World Cup because they’ll never have the opportunity to play against them.”
“If the Wolf King rebelled, I will swear to my singlehood this year. I’ll be willing to stay single forever.”
“Slander. It’s blatant slander. Anyone who has interacted with the Wolf King before knows that he treats enemies ruthlessly but his fellow Florencians with utmost kindness.”
“I’m willing to sign a petition declaring the Wolf King’s innocence!”
“I’m willing to sign a petition declaring the Wolf King’s innocence!”
Both sides of the argument were vocal, and a tug–of–war ensued.
In Sumeria, Belarus gathered everyone together as soon as possible.
“What do you all think about this matter?” Belarus‘ expression was dark as ink as he looked over the
crowd below.
“Andrius couldn’t have committed treason.”
Luna’s simple statement immediately revealed her stance. She believed in Andrius unconditionally.
Andrius risked his life and drank poison to save her. He gave up a promising situation on the battlefield and put himself in danger just to protect her.
How could someone like that possibly be a traitor?
“I feel the same.” Belarus nodded. He had no reason other than that he trusted his own judgment and intuition. Andrius would never rebel. He loved the land beneath his feet and the people of Florence.
His love was ardent and profound.
After those two spoke, even if Harry and the others had different opinions, they had no choice but to suppress them.
“Since this is a public trial, the emperor must consider the overall situation. They will find reasons for Andrius‘ rebellion and use them as arguments.”
Belarus narrowed his eyes and said, “Thus, let’s contact Andrius‘ former comrades and gather a petition of 10,000 signatures to prove his innocence and support him. What do you all think?”
“Sure.”
