Sylvia's POV:
"Guards, take Sylvia away as well."
Two soldiers immediately came up to my side and seized me.
Flora and Harry anxiously tried to stop them, but other soldiers had driven them away.
"Go! Go back to school.You are not allowed to stay here any longer!"
Even pointing their weapons at them, the soldiers threatened to drive Harry and Flora out.
Harry tried his best to stand his ground, but he ended up with ripped clothes from getting dragged away by some soldiers.
Stubbornly, Harry tried harder.
"I also interfere official affairs by assaulting the guards.Take me as well!"
But Ethan didn't say anything.
In fact, he didn't even look back at Harry.
Instead, he waved his hand in dismissal with impatience.
The guards ignored Harry and Flora and continued to drag them out.
Flora crouched down like a spoiled brat and weighed down the guard.
"No! I won't go!"
The guards didn't know what to do, since they were not allowed to use violence in the king's presence.
Harry and Flora had gotten the guards in a stalemate.
"If you keep making any more trouble like this, you will just implicate Sylvia all the more!" Ethan bellowed.
"You can't do this!" Flora protested.
Ethan sharply looked at her, which was enough to frighten Flora and shut her up.
"Flora, Harry, just go back to school."
Without Ethan seeing, I winked at them.
The face of the lycan king was already getting gloomier by the second.
If he got even more pissed off, I was afraid that no one would end up leaving safely.
Flora frowned.She didn't say anything, but I could see the unwillingness in her eyes still.
Harry also looked like a defeated rooster.
Slumping his shoulders, he removed himself from the guard's grip and stood up obediently.
"Okay, Flora and I will wait for you in school."
"Good.I'll be fine; don't worry."
I tried to comfort them.
I took a deep breath to calm down and replied as loud as I could, "I don't understand what you're talking about.I didn't do anything wrong."
Several gasps erupted in the air.
The atmosphere became even tenser, and I could hear my voice faintly echo throughout the hall.
A chuckle suddenly broke the ice.It was Ethan.
He proceeded to accuse me of several crimes.
"You disturbed public order, prevented the army from fulfilling their duty, and even hid the criminal.Just for that last one alone, I could already sentence you to death."
I looked Ethan in the eyes and my mind was filled with clarity.
"I do not admit to any of the charges you press against me.Prince Rufus is not guilty, so I did not hide a criminal."
"He lost control in public and even killed an innocent child! He injured several of my men! How could you say he is not guilty?" Richard retorted.
I retorted angrily, "Because Prince Rufus was framed.I think you would know something about this, Prince Richard.Prince Rufus and I were only acting out of self -defense.In fact, we didn't even inflict severe injuries on your guards.You, Prince Richard.Not only did you threaten the lives of students, but you also plotted to hurt us."
"That is slander!"
Richard gritted his teeth and glared at me.
"It's not slander!"
At this time, Flora came rushing in from the outside. She pulled down her collar and pointed at the wound on her neck.
"This wound was caused by Prince Richard himself.I was terrified.Richard is evil.If Sylvia hadn't saved me then, I would have already died."
