“In that state, I can’t lie,” Capeline revealed her trump card.
Shien’s eyes lit up.
Diere also reacted.
“So, in that state, anything you say is undoubtedly true and cannot be faked, right?”
Diere’s cold voice came from under her hood, attracting everyone’s attention.
Rockto stared at Diere thoughtfully.
Tilly was puzzled, seemingly guessing Diere’s identity.
Capeline frowned, either because of Diere’s sudden interruption or because someone whose identity she didn’t know spoke to her.
But she still nodded.
“If I lie, I will lose my impartial stance, and Goddess Artemis’s blessing will not only not protect me, but will also immediately punish me,” Capeline said with certainty, “Almost all the high-ranking officials in the Empire know about this.”
Therefore, in public, once Capeline prayed to Artemis, the Goddess of Justice, and requested an impartial stance to judge all injustice, her words would carry the greatest credibility.
If such a Capeline exposed Mara’s actions against her, then those things definitely happened.
In that case, Capeline’s words would prevail, successfully exposing Mara’s true face.
At that time, Mara would be unable to defend herself.
“If you have such an ability, why didn’t you expose her actions before?” Shien was puzzled.
“Before?” Capeline sighed, “Did Mara do any of those things in front of me?”
That was true.
Mara’s past actions definitely weren’t done in front of Capeline.
Without evidence or eyewitness accounts, any accusations would be just Capeline’s speculation.
That wouldn’t work.
“I must have concrete evidence or have witnessed it myself under an impartial stance to activate the judgment,” Capeline said, “Only Artemis herself can judge others and expose their sins at any time.”
That goddess truly had broken abilities.
Capeline was just her blessed one, possessing her blessing, and couldn’t reach that level.
Just like Lucy and Diere, who could only receive fate’s protection but couldn’t manipulate it, Capeline could only be passively just, unable to forcibly make everything fair, impartial, and transparent.
But now, Mara had acted against Capeline, fulfilling the condition.
“To prevent me from exposing that venomous Consort, the nobles of her faction will definitely try to stop me, and the venomous Consort herself won’t be able to sit idly by, she will definitely deal with me,” Capeline said slowly.
“She’s coming back soon.”
“When she returns, I will expose her.”
“That will be the time for the decisive battle.”
