Chapter 1435


    "Tristan Acker!"


    Prisci''s heart was about to shatter into pieces when she saw him.


    Was he crazy?


    Didn''t he know that he was already a fugitive in Ango? How could he appear in front of everyone?


    However, a smile appeared on his handsome face, and he said faintly, "No one can hurt you if I''m


    around."


    His voice was so soft that only Prisci could hear it. But her head felt that it was about to burst


    open as fragments of her memory rushed through her head.


    She remembered that they were on a battlefield, and mes were covering the sky. At that time,


    Tristan had rolled away as he held Prisci tightly in his arms. He said then, "No one can hurt you if


    I''m around."


    She was fine that time, but Tristan was covered in bruises.


    That year, she was eighteen years old while Tristan was in his twenties.


    At that time, Tristan was still frail, and he didn''t have a goodplexion. He wasn''t good at fighting,


    but he came to save her repeatedly without caring about his capabilities.


    Prisci''s head ached terribly as she recalled this. Suddenly, she remembered everything that she


    seemed to have forgottenst time.


    It turned out that they had known each other for a long time.


    In fact, they used to be so close!


    Suddenly, Prisci could smell the pungent smell of blood, and she teared up immediately.


    "Are you stupid?"


    "Don''t cry."


    Tristan wiped her tears while a pistol slipped down from his sleeve. He then immediately aimed right


    at the captain''s temple.


    The pistol had a silencer, and it hit its target immediately.


    When the other people saw that their captain was dead, they panicked immediately.


    At this time, Teagan came back.


    When he saw Tristan''s injured back and how Prisci was crying uncontrobly, he was furious.


    "I will kill you b*stards!"


    He then raised his gun and went on a rampage.


    Didn''t they say that the Acker family had rebelled?


    He would show them what a rebellion looked like!


    When Tristan heard the gunshots, he turned around and saw Teagan''s reckless behavior, so he


    couldn''t help but frown.


    "Prisci, take good care of yourself. Today, the Acker family won''t be able to escape unscathed. As


    my father is no longer around, I can''t let anything happen to his only child by blood."


    "Let me do it?!"


    Prisci knew how important the Acker family was to Tristan.


    After all, she remembered everything now.


    She recalled everything that happened when she was with Tristan.


    Since he belonged to her, she was determined to pay the price for his actions.


    After all, Tristan had always risked his life for her. Hence, wouldn''t be a big deal if she did the same


    for him today.


    So Prisci pushed Tristan behind her. Even now, she was still hoping that Tristan would not expose


    his identity.


    At the same time, Prisci jumped up and kicked Teagan away while a bullet brushed past Teagan''s


    ear.


    Teagan was stunned when he saw this, and he immediately realized that Prisci had saved him.


    However, before he could say anything, Prisci had already joined the battle.


    At this moment, Teagan had mixed feelings.


    "What are you looking at? Let''s go!"


    Tristan endured the pain and pulled at Teagan while eximing.


    "Urgh! Who asked you toe back?"


    "Well, you''re my brother, so I can''t let you die here alone! This involves the Acker family, and you


    can''t do this!"


    Teagan suddenly started tearing up childishly.


    After all, they had grown up together. Although they were unrted by blood, they thought of each


    other as brothers.


    At that moment, tears welled up in Tristan''s eyes.


    He then grabbed Teagan and hugged him tightly while whispering, "Teagan, I am a soldier.


    However, I can''t allow Laborn to die now."


    Right now, he wanted to kill Laborn more than anyone else, but he couldn''t do that.


    After all, Laborn hadmitted too many crimes and needed to be put to trial in front of many


    countries. Hence, Tristan couldn''t let him die unjustifiably because of personal grievances.


    Well, Tristan knew that Teagan was going all out to kill Laborn. In fact, wasn''t he doing the same?


    On the other hand, his duty prevented him from doing so.


    After hearing this, Teagan paused for a while and then asked, "When can it happen then?"


    "We have to wait till the judge announces that he is guilty after looking at the evidence."


    "Hah! But where''s his evidence of his crimes? He''s so cunning and cautious, so he won''t leave any


    traces of his crimes! Bah! Are we going to allow him to continue escaping the hands of thew


    now?"


    Teagan was very agitated as he said these words.


    However, Tristan did not know how to reply to him.


    Meanwhile, Prisci had returned.


    She gave off an intense murderous aura. Hence, some of the guards had fled while most of them


    were injured.


    Then, Prisci whispered, "It''s fine. Even if he doesn''t leave evidence, we can fabricate the


    evidence. As long as others think that he is guilty, then he will be."


    At this time, Prisci held no affection for Laborn in her gaze at all.


    Teagan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and Tristan realized her intentions as well.


    "Huh? Are you trying to frame him?"


    "Am I framing him? Doesn''t everyone know about the fact that he detained so many daughters of


    high-ranking officials from other countries here? If I say that he was coveting the mineral veins of Z


    City and wanted to take them as his own, am I really framing him? He also tortured Uncle Barack


    and forced my mother to be with him. All of this is true, right?"


    Then, Prisci continued slowly, "Teagan is right. It would be extremely difficult to find evidence of


    Laborn''s crimes. Furthermore, he is cunning, and he won''t leave any evidence. Even if there were


    any traces of his crimes, they should be with As now. Before Altas bes king, the evidence


    would be his most powerful weapon as he needs to threaten Laborn. So no matter what we do, we


    won''t get the evidence from either Laborn or As. In that case, how long more will it take? Urgh! I


    can''t wait any longer! Laborn and As must be put to trial in front of the whole world."


    When Teagan looked at the hatred in Prisci''s eyes as she was saying this, he was puzzled.


    After all, wasn''t Laborn her father?


    Why was she so heartless?


    Meanwhile, Tristan could guess what Teagan was thinking, and he whispered, "Her mother died in


    Laborn''s hands."


    That was a secret that only the people in the pce knew about.


    After all, very few people knew that her mother did not die of an illness other the Prisci. Instead,


    she had been executed by Laborn. Back then, he had executed Prisci''s mother before thetter


    was of lowly status and could not help Laborn with political affairs. However, she was one of his


    wives, so Laborn could not marry other women who were more powerful.


    So her mother had to die.


    That year, Prisci was only six years old.


    She could never forget the incident. At that time, she was ying hide-and-seek with her mother


    and hid in the closet while waiting for her mother to find her. However, she ended up seeing Laborn


    strangling her mother with his own hands.


    That scene was like a nightmare, and it tormented her every night.


    After all, she could never forget Laborn''s heartless eyes and his vicious means.


    Her mother had cried for help loudly, but he covered her mouth and nose tightly and suffocated her.


    Prisci trembled in fear at this scene, but she didn''t dare to make a sound. After all, she was afraid


    that Laborn would notice that she had witnessed everything and get rid of her as well.


    At the age of six, she had understood what life and death were.


    Therefore, she had to endure the pain so that she could continue living. Hence, she did not dare to


    tell anyone about the truth behind her mother''s death.


    In the end, her mother did not even have a funeral. After being strangled to death, her mother was


    dragged out of the pce and thrown to the mass graves.


    At that time, Prisci had run through the rain to where the graves were. She was terrified when she


    saw the corpses, and she struggled to find her mother. In the end, she only managed to find half of


    her mother''s body. The other half had already been torn apart and dragged off by some wild beast.


    She was only six at that time, but she knew that it was useless to cry. So she found a clean ce


    and buried her mother''s body.


    She didn''t dare to give her mother a tombstone, nor did she dare to tell anyone where her mother


    was buried. Every year on her mother''s death anniversary, Prisci would sneak out of the pce


    and visit her mother at the mass grave, but she had to avoid everyone to do so.


    Since she was young, her mother had spent the most time with her. On the other hand, her so-


    called father had never given her any care and warmth.


    On the night of her mother''s death, she had a high fever. At that time, her maid went to notify


    Laborn. However, the head of the guards kicked her out before she could even see Laborn.


    Back then, Prisci didn''t know how she managed to get through it. Her temperature was high, but


    she was cold as well. When Prisci thought that she had seen her mother, she cried and wanted to


    die with her mother, but her mother reprimanded her and asked her to live on with a strong heart.


    When she woke up again, Prisci was exhausted, and there was no one around her. She didn''t


    know how long she had been unconscious and how her fever had subsided. Onlyter did she find


    out that Magnolia was the one who had sent her medicine and saved her life.


    Unfortunately, before she could thank Magnolia, Magnolia had died of illness.


    That year, she learnt and understood a lot.


    She knew that Magnolia probably could have died of a sickness, but thetter could also have been


    killed by Laborn, like her mother. However, she was so young, and she could not even protect


    herself. Hence, how could she avenge her mother and Magnolia?


    So she escaped from the pce in the night and followed a ship secretly trying to enter Z Country.


    After that, she had met Nathaniel there, and she finally survived.


    Ironically, she had left the pce for several years, but Laborn had never looked for her. Hah!


    Perhaps Laborn was trying to tell her that he could dispose of her anytime.


    Later on, Prisci came back to Ango. At that time, Laborn epted her because of the forces


    behind her and recognized her as one of the princesses of Ango. However, Prisci knew that


    Laborn had never taken a liking to her.


    However, she had never told anyone about her past, and no one knew about her history other than


    Nathaniel. So when Prisci heard Tristan telling Teagan the cause of her mother''s death, she was


    surprised.


    Meanwhile, Tristan knew what she was thinking and said in a low voice, "Let''s get out of here first.


    Laborn''s men suffered a loss, so they will definitely take action. There is a secret passage inside, so


    let''s go there."


    On the other hand, Teagan had a prejudice against Prisci before this. But now that he heard her


    secret, he had some sympathy for Prisci. Moreover, she was Tristan''s wife, so he decided to


    ept her.


    "Yes, Prisci. Let''s leave first and talk about thister."


    Teagan called her name with much sincerity, so Prisci couldn''t help but tear up.


    Then, Tristan leaned on Prisci and whispered, "If we don''t leave now, I''ll bleed to death, my dear


    wife!"


    Only then did Prisci remember Tristan''s injury.

    "Let''s leave now!"


    After saying that, Prisci supported Tristan and entered the Acker family''s mansion with Teagan.


    Then they went into the secret passage swiftly.


    Prisci did not know when Tristan had made a secret passage, nor did she know where the path


    led to. However, she followed him in because she trusted him. While walking, she said, "I''ve already


    sent my men to collect evidence that Arlo was framed by As. As long as we find the evidence,


    everyone will know As'' true colors. By then, he can never sit on the throne! Hah!"


    Tristan paused for a moment when he heard this. When he was about to say something, there was


    a loud bang outside, and the whole ground trembled. At the same time, the secret passage in front


    of them suddenly copsed!
