Chapter 2721


    ?


    Fade''s voice was very soft, thus, there were several reporters who didn''t manage to hear what he said. They continued to hold their microphones up and shoot him questions.


    "Mr. Chen, this is not China. This is Eand. No one will pay the bills for you. Have you already thought it through?"Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Mr. Chen, if no one attends, will you continue to hold your press conference?"


    "Mr. Chen, since it is a press conference, please answer our questions."


    Fade looked around at the aggressive foreign reporters. Then, he turned his gaze outside and said, "The VIPs you have all been waiting for are here."


    These reporters turned their heads to look at the door, but they did not see anyone.


    Immediately, they turned back discontentedly.


    "Mr. Chen, do you think this kind of joke is funny? I don''t think it''s funny at all"


    "If you are trying to make a joke, it''s noting off well."


    "Mr. Chen..."


    Just as the reporters were speaking, footsteps were heard getting closer. Everyone turned their heads back at once.


    The first person who came in from the door was a man in a ck robe, dressed like a priest.


    As soon as they saw the ck robe, many people immediately knew who he was. They aimed their cameras and started snapping away.


    "It''s members of the Sacred Hall!"


    "The people from the Sacred Hall are here. Fade is doomed."


    As the guards of the Sacred Hall came in, a man in his fifties, wearing a dark red robe, walked in with no expression on his face.


    When the man came in, the crowd could not help but exim.


    "That... That''s Mr. Garay. He hasn''t appeared in public for a long time. I can''t believe he showed up today."


    "Since Mr. Garay has shown up, it seems like the Sacred Hall is not nning to let this go so easily."


    Amongst the chatter, Garay looked over at Fade, who was sitting in the upper seat, deadpan. He came directly to the VIP seat and sat down.


    Fade did not speak, but just nced at him and continued to look at the entrance.


    Then, footsteps rang out again.


    This time, a group of armored soldiers came in. When the crowd saw the puma badge on their arms, they immediately recognized that they were the royal guards.


    "The royal guards are here too!"


    "Even the royal family is getting ready to take action. There''s no way out for Fade now!"


    "He offended the royal family and the Sacred Hall in Eand. The only way out for him is death."


    While they were talking, a middle-aged man wearing silver armor and holding a heavy cross-shaped sword walked into the venue.


    The man was about 50 years old. He was very burly, and his eyes under the hard helmet were like a puma. His gaze gave off a monstrous pressure. Just when the reporters saw the man, their eyes lit up, and their cameras began to sh even quicker.


    "That''s Gerante. He is one of the Knights of the Round Table!"


    "I never expected them to send a knight. The royal family is really taking this very seriously!"


    "Gerante''s ancestor was King Arthur''s righthand man in battle. He was one of the very first knights. Now, Gerante has carried on the legacy of his ancestors. How admirable!"


    Gerante didn''t say anything. He just nced around the scene. Finally, he fixed his eyes on Fade for a few seconds, then went to find a seat and sat down.


    With the arrival of these two distinguished guests representing the Sacred Hall and the royal family, the scene grew lively.


    The high-ranking nobles who had been hiding in the crowd earlier had also taken their seats.


    The initially empty seats had suddenly be packed.


    Seeing this, Fade''s gaze swept around. The corner of his lips revealed a smile as he faintly said, "Since everyone is seated, I shall begin this press conference."


    As he spoke, he coughed lightly and prepared to speak.


    However, at that moment, Gerante suddenly stated, "No matter what you say, remember that you have to take responsibility for it. You are not allowed to speak ill of the name of the royal family of Eand."


    After he finished speaking, Garay continued, "The Sacred Hall won''t be a pushover either. We will take back what we are owed."


    These statements from both men shocked a lot of people.


    Everyone looked at Fade.


    After all, the meaning of their threats was obvious. Now, the only question that remained was what Fade nned to do.


    However, at this moment, he was still as calm as ever. It was as though he hadn''t heard them at all.


    He said directly, "I''vee to Eand today to hold this press conference."


    "The reason being a piece of news that I saw."


    After that, he brought up the article that showed the Sacred Hall and the royal family seizing the Knight Association and the Blythe family.


    As soon as he brought this up, the crowd''s interest was piqued.


    He continued, "This article itself isn''t important. What matters is its contents. ording to this, I am the one who infiltrated the Sacred Hall to harm Saintess Celine and Princess Erin. That was the reason why the royal family and the Sacred Hall were after me." Content belongs

    "I would like to rify this matter!"


    "I neverid a finger on Saintess Celine or Princess Erin. The royal family of Eand and the Sacred Hall have no valid reason toe after me." As soon as he finished his words, the crowd burst into an uproar.


    The royal family and the Sacred Hall''s guards were arguing over each other. It was bing clear that some people couldn''t take it anymore and were ready to strike.


    However, Gerante and Garay gently waved their hands, instructing their respective teams to calm down and to continue listening.


    On the other hand, there was no way to keep the reporters in check. Hence, they werepletely riled up.


    "Mr. Chen, you im to be innocent. Do you have any evidence?"


    "Are you trying to deny that you havemitted a crime in the Eand?"


    "There were multiple witnesses who were at the scene of the crime. How would you


    exin that?"


    Faced with the reporters'' enthusiastic questions, Fade made a gesture to calm everyone down and make everyone quiet.


    Then, he smiled gently and exined slowly, "I will answer all your questions. Let me tell you what happened from start to finish."


    Then, he slowly started to talk about


    the night he pulled out the sword from the stone. He was celebrating with Erin She asked him to stay the night, and he did. Following Celine was drugged and mind-controlled. She sent herself to his room. He also exined what happened with Erin''s attack.


    Then, he ended the story.


    With an angry expression, Gerante


    red at Fade, gritted his teeth and spat out a few words. "What nonsense! Erin is the princess of the


    royal family. How could she be controlled by someone else inside her? That''s absurd." Content belongs

    On the other side, Garay slightly narrowed his eyes. His gaze sank but he did not say a word.
