Looking at the trash under her hands, the Queen held her forehead in pain.

Since she couldn't count on these losers, she had to find a way on her own.

Her little mind was spinning, and finally she remembered the rumors about Marika.

"That savage seems to be able to resurrect from the dead...could she also master the magic of absorbing life force?"

"No, that's not right...the spell to absorb life force is not that convenient."

"Her situation looks more like the ability of the King of Ancestral Spirits. But the King of Ancestral Spirits has died long ago. Why does his blessing still exist?" Thinking of this, the queen's face showed anger.

"Melina!!!" the queen's roar sounded in the dungeon.

Melina, who looked confused, slowly raised her head. After this period of detention, she became much thinner than before. Her eyes were a little less cold and a little more gentle.

"Mom, what happened?" Melina asked.

Snapped! ! !

The queen came up and gave Melina a hard slap in the face.

"Why didn't you kill the King of Ancestral Spirits!!!" the furious queen grabbed Melina's collar and roared.

Melina's pupils shrank when she heard this. How did the mother know about this?

Seeing Melina's shocked expression, the Queen knew she had guessed correctly. The King of the Ancestral Forest is indeed not dead, and is even secretly plotting against him.

She didn't believe in any immortal legends. It was definitely the ancestral spirits secretly providing life force to Marika.

Marika just put on a show in front of those stupid people and then she can get the throne! How can there be such a good thing in the world!

The queen angrily threw Melina against the wall, and she wanted to beat Melina to death on the spot.

But soon, she calmed down.

"Since you still have feelings for that old guy, I'll use you to fish him out." She was ready to squeeze out the last of her daughter's value.

"What do you mean?" Melina subconsciously felt panicked.

"Hmph! Enjoy your last life!" The queen left the dungeon indifferently.

Then, a piece of exciting news spread in the royal city.

Melina has fornicated with foreign enemies, causing heavy losses to mankind, and will be executed in ten days.

The Queen placed all the blame on Melina.

Under the guidance of public opinion, the melon-eating people who did not know the truth also began to spurn Melina.

In addition, Melina has always presented herself as a spy leader, so basically no one in the royal city likes her.

Melina was imprisoned in a huge iron cage and paraded through the streets.

Countless curses came pouring out, which made Melina look a little confused. She didn't know what she had done wrong. Why does everyone hate her so much?

Some excited crowds even picked up stones and attacked Melina.

The flying stones hit Melina's body, making Melina's already numb heart slightly agitated.

But this excitement quickly subsided and turned into deep numbness.

However, this stone-throwing behavior was quickly stopped by the knights.

After all, Melina is a princess, so she still has to keep some dignity.

A drop of blood slowly flowed from Melina's forehead, and she showed a wry smile.

He is finally going to die. She felt a sense of relief for no apparent reason.

From childhood to adulthood, she has lived with the expectations of others. Mother’s expectations, subordinates’ expectations, and people’s expectations.

Although she had tried her best to achieve this, it was only now that she realized that she had not met anyone's expectations.

She is a complete loser and her life has no meaning.

Melina's large iron cage was placed on a high execution platform.

Several knights guarded the perimeter.

Countless people in the audience pointed at Melina and yelled curses, and the strange things thrown by angry people would be stopped by the knights.

Starting today, Melina will be abused by the angry crowd for ten days.

After ten days, she will be executed.

In the crowd, a young man with black and red hair was looking at Melina quietly.

There was a twinge of pain in his heart for no reason.

"Melina...daughter...uh!" The sharp memory fragments made Dio's head sting again.

Originally, he secretly sneaked into the royal city this time with the intention of contacting some spies here.

But as soon as he entered the city, he saw Melina's miserable appearance.

Dio covered his head and took a few deep breaths before finally calming down.

"This is happening again!" Dio slapped his head.

Dio pushed aside the crowd and stepped forward. He was now very curious about Melina's mood.

The moment the golden meteor touched Melina, Dio felt Melina's inner relaxation and numbness.

Melina rolled her eyes, and then she saw Dio crowded in the front row.

That special hair color reminded her of unpleasant memories.

However, the past is like smoke. Now the other party has nothing to do with him.

Melina smiled at Dio.

Dio lowered his head subconsciously. "What a perceptive girl."

Although Melina's tragic situation would make him sad, Dio had no intention of saving her.

After all, Melina almost killed herself in the first place.

Maybe he and Melina were good friends in his previous life, but each life had its own perspective, and he didn't want to confuse the experiences of the two lives.

Dio shook his head and disappeared into the crowd.

Melina looked at Dio walking away, her expression calm again.

She knew that Dio was a terrifying enemy, but she was no longer in the mood to protect her mother.

Dio came to the aristocratic residential area and walked to the residence of a minister.

"Who are you?" the servant guarding the door asked doubtfully.

Dio handed a ring to the servant.

"Ah~ So it's you! The master is already waiting for you!" After the servant saw the ring, he enthusiastically welcomed Dio into the door.

Passing through the long corridor, Dior was introduced into a luxurious study.

After the servant finished everything, he closed the door and left.

"Cuckoo Knight, what a pleasure to meet you!" The minister who once advised the Queen to move the capital smiled and shook Dior's hand.

Dio gave a wry smile. "I don't really like the name Cuckoo."

"Haha, what does it matter? Your strength has turned this name into a compliment." The minister stretched out his hand and asked Dio to take a seat.

After Dio took his seat, the minister went directly to the topic.

"The queen is not someone who is easy to fool. My misguidance is of no use to her. Moreover, her royal knights are still loyal to her. That is a terrifying force."

The minister poured a cup of tea for Dio and a cup for himself.

"It is not an easy task to defeat the queen. But if the two sides enter into a long-term confrontation, Princess Marika will likely be at a disadvantage."

"You must have seen the situation outside. The Queen even did not hesitate to use her own daughter as a shield."

"When people's anger subsides, the queen's influence will be stable again." The minister said solemnly.
