Stealing The Protagonist's Yandere Lovers

Chapter 27 The Royal Family Gets Involved!

While Elandor was busy instigating David into a prison break, the royal palace was already in an uproar.

It's already been a few minutes since Leon was waiting outside the meeting hall and there was sweat continuously dripping down his forehead.

He swore to God that he had never felt so tense as today!

After leaving his brother at the guild, he went along with Evelyn and Eve to help interrogate Parul but just when he was about to get started, he was summoned by Princess Lena.

When he reached the palace he was shocked to see the panicked and worried face of the Princess.

He was lost in thought, 'What's with her reaction?'

'Isn't it just some artifact and letter that got stolen?'

A thought suddenly hit him, 'Perhaps she has already fallen too deeply in love with me and…that she is scared that if someone else reads her love letter addressed to me, then people may get the wrong idea about our relationship!'

'Oh is she scared that I will be punished for trying to court someone of royal blood?'

'Uwuu her worried face is way too cute! Don't worry when I return to my family, I will get back my fame and reputation and will have enough status to be together with you.'

But before he could speak some sweet words to coax her, she spoke in the most serious tone he had ever seen.

"Leon, I think we will also be arrested", these were the words that had been constantly ringing in Leon's head since the Princess talked to him.

He tried to recall everything again how the Princess told him...that she has stolen her family's heirloom, The hero's memory stone, which has been kept by the royal family since the times of ancient generations to help them tide over any potential life-death crisis.

She told him that according to her family records, a legendary technique that is even capable of challenging Gods is stored in the memory stone.

When Leon heard her, he instantly figured out everything and screamed in his mind.

'You damm Princess! Why did you have to steal something so important and even if you had to steal it, you should have given it to me personally!'

'Is her brain gone full dumb like those cows who mindlessly graze grass that she can't even think that such important stuff can't be sent out casually by weak people like Evelyn.'

Unknown to them Elandor has already used the memory stone to learn the legendary one-shot technique long ago.

But before they could figure out what to do, they were already summoned by the King who quickly found out that the heirloom was missing from the royal treasury.

Leon was praying to God, "It was this stupid Princess who stole… not me. Please I have nothing to do with this shit!"

He was getting more and more nervous while waiting outside the meeting hall.

At first, only The King and Princess were in the room, but as minutes passed, members belonging to the royal family and some who have high status in the royal court started entering through the door and joined them.

Seeing so many high-profile people entering in such a short time he already knew how intense the situation was.

He was sure that if they are not able to find the memory stone from Parul, he along with the Princess will have to suffer an unimaginable fate.

As someone from a rich family, he knew that heirlooms have a lot of significance for any noble household, they highlight the pride of their lineage and are like a symbol of glory for their future generations.

And nobles with their big pride will never allow someone to rob it and escape so easily.

And heck yeah! This was much greater than an ordinary heirloom, it was a fkin memory stone containing a legendary technique.

Someone has to take the blame, even if no suspect is found, someone must become a scapegoat to take the blame so that the king's image is not lowered in the eyes of commoners.

…

In the meeting room, Princess Lena was surrounded by her brothers and other cousins, seeing the glaring eyes of all the women she had called aunts since childhood, she was already too timid.

The king didn't waste much time and asked her directly where the heirloom was.

She was already too scared that she could barely even muster the strength to stand properly, her legs were already shaking too much but seeing the majesty of the king standing in front of her, like a broken record she told everything...about how she stole the memory stone sneakily from the treasure room to how she sent it to Leon via Evelyn to how it got robbed by Parul.

"But Dad, don't worry Evelyn has already caught Parul."

"She will soon tell us where she has hidden it."

But before she could speak more she was greeted by a tight slap, she looked up with her big watery eyes to see her Dad's angry face as she put her hands on her right cheek which had swollen-red after suffering the impact.

"Foolish girl! I never knew you were this stupid"

"Do you think a weak girl like Parul can alone dare to rob such a precious item?"

"Probably, she is just a pawn, who is following orders and the real mastermind must have already secured the memory stone from her hands."

"But luckily your subordinate Evelyn is still useful as she quickly arrested Parul while her dad was out".

"If the guild master had come early, we would not have been able to arrest her so easily."

"They already have many secret people supporting them and he would have definitely sent Parul to some foreign country before we could even take any legal action."

"It's already too late, we will wait for the night so that we can squeeze all the important information from Parul's mouth before we sentence her to death in the morning."

"It seems that people no longer fear the power of the royal family anymore."

"Tomorrow morning, when people witness how we publicly execute Parul, they shall once again feel the fear of going against the royal power and will know that only fate that goes against their king only ends in death", saying this, the King had a crazy expression on his face.

No one knew, at that moment under Elandor's lead, a pair of a boy and Lolli were already planning hard about how to break into the prison and run away with Parul.
