"can you!"

The prince's questions aroused growing discussion in the banquet hall.

Anke and d.d were both stunned for a few seconds and spoke almost at the same time:

"Your Highness——"

And the prince's smile cooled.

"But I don't like that!"

Thales roared angrily, interrupting the two people who were caught off guard.

"The Yankees may be barbaric," Thales raised an unknown wine glass and stretched it forward into the air, his eyes like daggers:

"But they never compromised."

Well, mostly uncompromising.

Thales gently let go and let the wine glass fall, shattering on the ground.

He looked at the hall full of people who were either surprised or confused, solemn or happy, and chuckled:

"So I want to add some bets to encourage that."

As soon as this statement came out, people in the hall were puzzled again.

Only Thales still smiled:

"Increase motivation for both of you."

A flash of light flashed in his eyes, locking the two duels within his field of vision:

"Make sure this is a thrilling, exciting and exciting game, and strive to win..."

"An unforgettable experience..."

Thales' smile turned into ice and his voice deepened:

"Duel to the death."

What?

The next second, when everyone from the nobles to the guard servants were surprised and failed to react, Thales shouted angrily:

"Ank Bailar!"

Anke responded nervously.

"I swear to the goddess of the setting sun in the name of the Duke of Star Lake, the second prince, Thales Bright Star!"

Thales's expression was solemn and indifferent as never before:

"If you win the duel, kill your opponent."

"My father, His Majesty King Kessel," Thales said coldly:

"He and I, we will fully support you, reopen the court for your family, and seek justice!"

Anke was shocked!

It wasn't just him, Mallos, Doyle, Vogel... After everyone reacted, they were all shocked and in disbelief.

Anke said in surprise:

"You... represent His Majesty?"

Thales sneered:

"It is the Bright Star royal family who will speak out for the Bailar family!"

"Until you are satisfied."

The guests in the hall suddenly burst into uproar, making noises one after another.

Anke was greatly surprised. He stared at Thales's expression, his breathing was disordered, and he couldn't help himself.

Full support……

Speak up for the Bailar family...

Doyle looked betrayed and looked at the prince he once served in disbelief.

Vogel was beside Mallos. He was frightened and angry and gritted his teeth and whispered: "Your Majesty...how can he represent your Majesty?"

"Still supporting Bailar... No, this is too reckless..."

Mallos frowned.

But Thales soon spoke again, his voice as serious as before:

"But, Anke, if you lose the duel, you will be defeated."

He said coldly:

"Then I also promise on behalf of my father and the Bright Star royal family."

"The controversy over the Bailar family..."

A cold light flashed in Thales's eyes:

"This is the end."

The meaning of this sentence was unclear, and the guests were puzzled for a while, until Anke, whose expression changed, tentatively spoke:

"Your Highness, I don't know..."

But Thales immediately raised his voice, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

"As a price for witnessing your glorious duel, as a punishment for your disrespect and transgression..."

Duke Xinghu’s voice echoed between the pillars of the Mindis Hall, making people stand in awe:

"If you lose."

"The case of the Bailar family will never be overturned, never retried, and there will be no objection."

Thales stared coldly at Anke, who was gradually becoming suspicious, and said in a voice as cold as ice:

"No matter how many grievances you have, how much legal evidence you have, or how much reason you have."

"The kingdom doesn't ask any questions."

“Let’s just turn it over.”

Amid the discussions among the guests, Anke was stunned on the spot.

It took him several seconds to understand the prince's "bet".

If you win the duel, give your full support...

If you lose the duel, the verdict will never be overturned...

Anke raised his head in a daze:

"But my family's land will never be overturned. I don't understand..."

Thales spoke coldly and interrupted his question:

"Anke, are you saying that you want to resort to a duel to recreate my legendary journey in the North?"

Anke frowned.

"Since you have chosen to solve the problem with the ancient imperial style, enjoy its convenience once and for all," Thales snorted coldly:

"We have to bear the price of its barbarism and backwardness."

Anke was stunned.

Thales raised his head and looked around at the people in the hall who were looking at him. Wherever his eyes went, the guests bowed their heads.

He said in a deep voice:

"This is the truth about dueling, the true ancient style of the empire and the way of the North."

Looking at the two duelists who were stunned at the same time, Thales curled up the corners of his mouth and showed a gentle smile:

"With such a bet, you will have the motivation to win, right?"

Discussions in the hall rang like buzzers, and everyone was wondering about Thales's intention.

"Okay, I think I understand a little bit."

Vogel thought hard and tried:

"His Royal Highness used the tyranny of royal power to block that guy's escape route. Now he must kill Doyle and give us the moral high ground in order to overturn the family's case."

The deputy guard captain looked at Mallos doubtfully:

"But His Highness is not afraid... the boy from the Doyle family, in turn, wants to kill the other party and settle the case in order to get the royal family to fulfill its promise?"

Mallos looked at Duke Xinghu's profile and lowered his head.

"No," the watchman whispered to Vogel:
