The Circumstances of a Trivial Villain (II) (3rd person pov cont.)

Of course, not everything went well.

The arrest of Morriett, the slave black market owner, whom Robert most wanted to capture, was only half-successful.

"Ugh... Uhh... I... I'm handsome... Uh..."

After the mirror called the 'origin of black magic' was broken, he lost his sanity.

After diagnosing him, the court Wizard shook his head and said:

"If not eroded by black magic, he wouldn't be so psychologically dependent. He was so influenced by the black magic that he couldn't come to his senses."

His ultimate goal of somehow capturing Morriett and finding a connection with Prince Carlon had failed.

Robert found and searched all the documents on the black market, but he could not find any traces of Carlon.

The main operators of the slave black market were all engulfed by black magic for a long time, so no one was alive.

'In the end, I couldn't find any conclusive evidence.'

However, there was an effect that made all the people of the Empire wary.

"Oh my God, black magic..."

After everyone confirmed the slaves who were known only in the black market, the empire fell into a shock.

Most people only heard that such a thing existed, but never imagined that the reality could exist so clearly.

Besides, they never knew the famous general store in the capital had such a big secret.
In particular, many people were astonished when the missing people came out as corpses of slaves.

The frustrations of those who had been searching for their families for years were enormous.

Being secretly kidnapped and used in slave trafficking without a soul would bring the wrath of anyone.

"Too many atrocities have been happening behind the Empire in recent years."

Robert made a powerful speech in front of the imperial people, announcing the identity of the black market.

"The imperial family or high-ranking aristocrats staying in a safe place are not affected by these backstreet crimes."

While everyone was shocked, the aftermath of the speech was great.

"When security becomes unstable because of these vicious groups, the people who get hurt are always ordinary people."

The people of the Empire were greatly moved by him, who overwhelmed the crowd with his sparkling green eyes.

'1 now declare a long fight against black magic. I will always do my best for the peace of all the people of the Empire. Please believe me, and..."

After a short but bold speech, Robert added politely.

"I would like to thank Ian Wade and Annabelle Reinfield once again for their unpaid cooperation in this investigation, solely for the sake of justice."

There was no one in the capital that did not know the names of Ian and Annabelle.

That speech, referring to Annabelle, had a very strange effect.

Ian was a very just person, so there were many reactions like, 'as expected of Ian Wade'.

It was not the first time he had acted for the public good, so it was nothing new.

"Annabelle? That Annabelle?"
