Wang: "No need to identify. The Orc Overlord said himself that many nobles had secret dealings with him. This should be one of them. These letters are all real!"
Bernard waved his hand and said, "Did you hear that? The master has verified that these letters are all true! No more flogging! Duke Villefort, death penalty! Deprivation of all titles!"
The death penalty alone is not enough. Even if the Duke himself is executed without depriving him of his title, his heirs will still inherit it.
Therefore, the title must be revoked before the death penalty, so that it cannot be inherited by the heir.
The royal clerk had been prepared long ago and had directly completed the document of deprivation of title and had the soldiers take it to the Duke who had just been taken down from the whipping frame.
Villefort shouted: "I won't put my fingerprints on it!"
The Chamber of Commerce's private soldier was not polite either. He broke the Duke's nose with a punch, then pressed the back of the Duke's head and slammed his head onto the clerk.
The nosebleed mark is also a mark, and magic can confirm that it is the Duke of Villefort's blood.
The royal clerk took the document, looked at it, and shouted, "Valid!"
Then the Chamber of Commerce's private soldiers escorted the Duke, who looked like a pile of mud, to the center of the ballroom and placed their crossed spears against his neck.
The third private soldier swung the huge axe used to split doors, and Duke Villefort's head rolled to the ground.
Bernard watched this scene with satisfaction, and handed Villefort's private letter to the secretary beside him for filing, and ordered at the same time: "Where is his son? Kill him together."
Ten seconds later, Master Villefort's head rolled to the ground.
Bernal: "My daughter, too."
When there were no more Villeforts in the ballroom, the Emperor picked up the next letter.
The horrific execution continued until midnight, and except for two dukes of the upper echelons of the empire, all the others died that night.
People say that the setting sun is like blood, but in fact the rising sun can also be the same color as blood.
Later history books would record this moment like this: the appearance of dawn heralded the rebirth of this ancient and decadent country, and a new page in Monrovia's history was opened.

Chapter 140: Monrovia Emperor's Generosity
It was already the next day when Elizabeth woke up.
She sat up while rubbing her eyes, then stared at Marika for a few seconds as if she didn't know her, before her brain finally started working.
"Good morning - or good evening? Why are there only magical lights?" Elizabeth stretched and yawned.
Marika: "Good morning. We are now in the back room of the Emperor's study in Monrovia."
Elizabeth muttered, "The Emperor's study secret room? When did this happen? Wait, what about the war? What about the orcs? Where are the necromancers?"
Marika: “It’s over, and with it the old days of Monrovia.”
Elizabeth was full of questions. "I expected the Orc War to be over, so before I fell asleep I thought that maybe the King would have solved the Orc problem when I woke up. What happened to the old days in Monrovia? Is the King going to be the Emperor of the Empire?"
Marika: "No. It's just that the Emperor of Monrovia used the King's - and the Mage Tower's - cover to prove that a number of dukes had committed treason and stripped them of their titles."
Elizabeth's eyes widened: "Washed them all?"
"Yes, all washed." Marika nodded.
Elizabeth, who was also a child of the Duke's family, was shocked and said, "Then Monrovia will immediately go into civil war. The other nobles will not watch the emperor take away their power like this."
Marika: "Maybe in the future, but the emperor has the support of all the big merchants and shadow thieves, and some nobles have joined the emperor's side. For example, we met Bradford Border Earl once before."
Elizabeth was shocked: "He still has a role in this? I thought I would never hear his name again."
"He married his daughter to a big businessman as a bridge between the nobles who wanted to reform and the merchants. It seems that he had been planning this for a long time."
Elizabeth nodded: "As expected, the local powerful nobles are not easy to deal with."
"No, the dukes of the empire seem to be too economical. In short, Monrovia seems to be able to take this opportunity to get rid of the accumulated problems since the founding of the country. I don't know the details. After all, I have been watching you here. What I just said are just a few words they told me after they came back."
Elizabeth: "Did they come back after the fight?"
"Well, we are staying here for the night. After all, the city was in chaos last night. There were search and house-raiding teams and the dukes' regular soldiers - oh, now we have to call in the private soldiers. We are fighting back and forth with them. It is absolutely safe to stay here for the night. As long as the door is not opened, no one from outside can get in."
Elizabeth nodded. "So where are they going now?"
"I'm standing on the city wall watching the movements of the orcs outside the city. Do you want to join them?"
"Yes, I'm going to meet up." Elizabeth stood up and realized that she was only wearing pajamas.
Marika: "I helped you change. I have some clothes here if you want to change."
Marika said as she took out her dimensional bag.
Elizabeth asked in confusion: "How come you have a dimensional bag too?"
"I captured one when I killed the emperor's spy before," Marika replied, "so I can use this dimensional bag to carry some necessities for our trip, such as your spare clothes, as well as a spare whalebone chest brace and waist corset."
Elizabeth stared at the dimensional bag: "Does the king know that you have this dimensional bag?"
"I didn't tell him, but he should understand. After all, his dimensional bag is powerful, but if we want to use it, we can only put things in it and can't take it out. It's still quite inconvenient."
Marika said as she took out a new dress from her dimension bag.
Marika: "How about it? This one is perfect for celebrating a victory. It's definitely appropriate to wear it today."
Elizabeth nodded, then touched her belly with both hands: "I have to suffer for my waist again."
"Don't worry about it," Marika said. "Your waist is very slim without any constriction."
Elizabeth instantly thought back to Nini's waist, and then to Rosalie's waist - okay, this one wasn't really threatening, but, Nini's thin waist!
Don’t forget to also have the super-sized and ultra-thin waist white one!
Elizabeth said firmly: "Tighten it as hard as you can! Tighten it until the corset is in the smallest size!"
Marika: “I don’t want you to faint from suffocation.”
"The upper part doesn't have to be so thin, but the belly part has to be thin!"
Marika hesitated to speak, but finally decided to follow the princess's wishes.
**
Fast forward a moment, when Elizabeth climbed up the city wall, the sun had almost reached its highest point of the day.
As soon as she got on the wall, she exclaimed, "How could it be!"
Outside the city walls, smoke billowed over the fields of Monrovia.
"Without the suppression of the Overlord, the orcs immediately began to plunder." The king's voice came from a distance, "You finally woke up, our Sleeping Beauty Princess. Flint just urged me to learn from the fairy tale and wake you up with a kiss."
Elizabeth looked in the direction of the voice in surprise: "Did you kiss it?"
Marika, who was standing beside her, murmured quietly, “How could he kiss her?”
Wang's voice floated from a distance: "I think the close contact of the oral mucosa will not help you wake up at all, and you are just overdrawn. As long as you get enough sleep, you will wake up naturally."
Marika: “Look.”
Elizabeth smiled and walked quickly towards Wang, asking as she walked: "What is oral mucosa? Uh..."
Her pace suddenly slowed down.
Because she finally noticed Nini's maid outfit next to the king - a miniskirt version of the maid outfit.
Although this dress covers more area of the lower body than Nini's original elf forest dress, for some reason it actually highlights Nini's beautiful legs.
Elizabeth subconsciously checked her clothes before asking, "Why did Nini change into new clothes?"
Wang: "Isn't this dress nice? It was modified by Flint's wife from a lich's robe. It can resist blunt force damage. I thought you had protective wrist guards, so I gave it to Nini."
Flint snorted and said, "She made a mistake and thought Nini was Elizabeth, so she made it like this based on her figure. Now only Nini can wear it."
Elizabeth looked at the waist of Nini's maid outfit, touched herself, and then asked, "Nini, you...are wearing a corset too, right?"
Nini: "No. Wearing a corset will affect movement. I think not only me, but also the drow ladies don't wear it."
Xiaobai lifted up his short coat with both hands, revealing his waist: "I won't wear it either!"
Elizabeth almost lost her balance.
Marika quickly supported her and whispered, "Didn't you notice just now? The dress was originally meant for you, but the dwarf tailor made a mistake."
Elizabeth: "Oh...it seems so."
She regained her balance and cleared her throat: "So, the orc problem is solved?"
"I'm not sure if it's solved now." The king looked outside the city. "The orcs haven't left, even though they stopped building siege weapons and their unified command is gone. They've immediately started fighting over looting targets. But you see, so many orcs on the plains is definitely a problem."
Nini: "The good news is that there are no orcs guarding the crossbow position anymore, because all the orcs on the position have gone to plunder. The Star Chaser can set off now."
The king nodded. "Yes, that's what the elves observed with their own eyes. In fact, a cargo ship had already set out this morning to deliver futures. The orcs probably thought they could rob the cargo ship, but after chasing it on their wolves for a while, they found that the ship was still outrunning them, so they gave up."
The current wind direction is suitable for sailing downstream, and the ship can sail very fast with the sails pulled.
Elizabeth was shocked: "Is that so."
Her eyes kept glancing at Nini. Elves are good-looking, but their clothes are very plain. The forest elves' forest clothes show a lot of thighs, but there is basically nothing to highlight their beauty.
But this maid outfit is different. It is basically designed to highlight the elf's good figure.
Wang noticed that Elizabeth had been looking at Nini, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
Elizabeth: "What do you think of Nini now? Just... do you want to have sex with her?"
Wang: "No. It's very strange. I know that her charm has increased after she changed into a maid outfit, but I still don't have that desire. After the battle yesterday, my face hit her chest when I landed, but I still didn't have that thought."
Just as Elizabeth was about to speak, the wizard announced excitedly, "So I think Nini has a good chance of becoming my love interest! But I don't want to go on a business trip with her just yet."
Elizabeth stumbled, and it was Marika who held her up so that she wouldn't fall to the ground.
At this time, Xiao Bai protested loudly: "I object! This is wrong, isn't it? How can you fall in love with her if you don't even want to fuck her?"
Wang looked at Xiao Bai seriously: "Because my teacher said that love is a noble thing that is beyond vulgarity. Love can make both people better!"
Xiao Bai: "Don't say things I don't understand! I don't know what makes two people better. Love is about having children! If you don't even want to have sex, how can you have a child? Do you want an eagle to bring one to you?"
Wang took a stance: "Don't tarnish my sacred imagination of love!"
"You are the one. Don't make things unnecessarily complicated!" Xiaobai said with a hissing sound and entered combat state.
At this time, Nini said: "Half-elf, it's not good for the child's future, right? He will be discriminated against in both human and elf society."
Flint: "You are right. My old friend had to work very hard to be recognized and accepted. But if you have children, just bring them to the Mage Tower. He will receive the best magic education since he was young. It is really enviable."
