Life changed the throne, didn't it? "Only he knows this matter best, Sebastian must confirm with Bernie.

Bernie looked at him, he actually knew the secret, it must be the woman named Blake.

"You said before that the queen died because of magic, not because magic killed the queen, but because the king's decision killed the queen." Sebastian gritted his teeth.

"Sebastian..." Bernie couldn't deny it at all.

"All the people he executed, he was as guilty as them, he sacrificed Kimi's mother, it's like killing her with his own hands." Sebastian yelled uncontrollably.

Bernie just lowered his head. He also persuaded Hakkinen back then, but it didn't work. He was determined to win the throne.

"How could you not tell me." Sebastian didn't know how much the old man kept from him.

"I'm worried about what Kimi will do when he finds out the truth." Although Bernie is usually a little confused, he also knows that with Sebastian's personality, he can't hide such a big matter.

"He's found out now." Sebastian realized something immediately after saying that. "Where's Hakkinen?"

"The chamber." Bernie also realized the reason for his question.

After Kimi came back, she rushed all the way to the chamber to find Hakkinen with her sword in her hand.

"Kimi, where have you been, I sent a search party to find you but couldn't find you." Hakkinen didn't notice the anger in his eyes.

"I already know how my mother died." Kimi took a deep breath before she could say this.

"Get out, no one can come in without my permission," Hakkinen said to the ministers beside him.

"What are you talking about?" He wanted to pretend to be ignorant, but he knew in his heart that someone had revealed this big secret.

"You wanted to inherit the throne, so you used magic." Kimi couldn't believe his acting was so good that he could pretend it didn't happen at all.

"Blake told you? She was lying." Hakkinen denied without hesitation.

"You want to exchange Heikki's life, but your mother exchanged her own life for Heikki's life, which is only three months old. Your throne is covered with her blood. No wonder you have been reluctant to mention her. She is Your despicable and bloody past." Kimi gritted her teeth in hatred.

"It's not true, Blake lied to you." Hakkinen had tears in his eyes. He didn't expect that the one who lost his life would be his most beloved wife. The magician didn't tell him about it. The reason for the magic.

"That's why you hate the magician so much, instead of self-reflection, you find a scapegoat." Everything has been explained, and Kimi is ashamed to have such a father.

Hakkinen could only deny it. Kimi was his most beloved son, and he didn't want to lose this father-son relationship. "Would you rather believe in a magician than me?"

"You hunt down magicians like you hunt animals." He didn't dare to take responsibility, making Kimi even more angry, "How many innocent people did you kill to clear your name?" "What spell did Blake cast on you?" Hakkinen Slightly annoyed, "I'm just doing my duty to defend our kingdom."

"You are full of high-sounding words, but you are actually a hypocrite and a liar." Kimi finally couldn't help but exploded, accusing his father mercilessly.

Hakkinen couldn't listen anymore, he was always a hero in his son's heart, he must have been bewitched by magic for daring to disobey him like this, "I am your king and father, show me some respect."

Kimi didn't say any more, but took off the glove and threw it at his father.

"Are you crazy?" Hakkinen couldn't believe he wanted to duel himself.

"Pick it up." Kimi drew his sword and walked towards him.

"Kimi, I beg you, think about what you're doing." Hakkinen didn't know how he knew the truth, but he seemed determined to believe it.

"Pick it up and accept the challenge." Kimi said again.

"I will not duel with you."

"If you don't defend yourself, I will execute you without mercy." Kimi said with tears in her eyes.

His tears made Hakkinen see the hope of reconciliation between father and son, "You are my son, you will not kill a defenseless person."

"I don't think I'm your son anymore." Kimi's tears had another meaning, he wanted justice for his mother and those innocent magicians.

"Then you do it." Hakkinen pretended to have a clear conscience, he was betting that his son would not do anything to him.

Kimi looked at him, and suddenly raised the sword in his hand and slashed at him. Unexpectedly, Hakkinen drew his sword to block, so Kimi's sword didn't hurt him.

"I don't want to fight you." Hakkinen put down his sword. He lost the bet, but fortunately he was prepared.

Kimi didn't think so, he kept moving towards him and made quick attacks, but Hakkinen blocked them all.

One was attacking blindly, the other was just resisting. Soon Hakkinen found that his son was no longer a child, his strength and swordsmanship had surpassed his own, and his sword was knocked down by Kimi with one careless move, and the whole He kicked the man down on the throne, and the point of the sword was about to pierce his chest.

At this critical moment, the door of the meeting hall was knocked open from the outside, and Sebastian rushed in in time to stop Kimi.

"Kimi, no, I know you don't want to."

"He killed my mother." Kimi's sword tip was trembling, which shows how much effort he took back at that moment just now.

"Killing your father is useless, you have already lost your mother, do you still want to lose your father?" Sebastian carefully persuaded from the side, not daring to get close to him, for fear that he would kill the king immediately if he was provoked.

"Kimi, listen to him." Hakkinen seemed to grab a life-saving straw, he didn't expect this humble little manservant to help him at this time.

"You heard what my mother said, don't you think he deserves death?" Kimi was trembling with anger, "He kills people who use magic, and he is one of them. For his own ambition Even my own son was willing to sacrifice, causing so much suffering, today I will make a break."

"Blake is lying." Sebastian felt that ending their father-son feud was the most important thing at this time, so he could only choose to use lies to cover up this cruel fact, "What you saw was not your mother, it was just a phantom, I always I didn’t understand it at first, but then I slowly figured it out, summoning the undead requires too much energy, and Blake didn’t suffer much after doing that, so it must be a lie.”

After hearing this, Kimi seemed to be moved by the words. Instead of only having an angry expression on his face, he gradually calmed down, but the sword in his hand was still pointed at Hakkinen.

"Every word your mother said was from Blake, you know me, I can see it." Sebastian did not hesitate to imply that Kimi remembered that he was a magician in front of the king, "This is her conspiracy to make you father and son turn against each other, If you kill him the kingdom will be destroyed, and that is her purpose."

"Did you hear that? He's telling the truth." Whatever the basis for his statement, Hakkinen hoped he could convince Kimi.

"You swear your mother's death has nothing to do with you, swear." Kimi didn't know what to do for a while.

"I swear, I love your mother, and there is not a day that I don't want her to be alive." These are Hakkinen's sincere words, but he cleverly avoided the content of the oath, "I will never do anything to hurt her thing."

Kimi weakly put down his sword, knelt down in front of the throne and cried, "I'm sorry." He is now like a person who was rescued ashore when he just fell into the water and was about to drown.

"It's not your fault, kid." Hakkinen leaned down and hugged him.

Sebastian and Bernie both heaved a sigh of relief, and finally did not cause such serious consequences as regicide and patricide.

After returning home at night, Bernie talked with Sebastian in the room.

"Your trick today is really dangerous. I don't even know how you kept your secret." Bernie was praising him for revealing his identity. Fortunately, the king focused on the crown prince and didn't care what he said, " Hakkinen should thank you, if he's dead you won't have to worry about it like this."

Sebastian sat there frowning, wondering why on earth Blake had come to Lapland all of a sudden.
