Belle burst out laughing.
"You're already a prisoner under arrest, and you still think you can kill me? Given my status, don't you know that just saying that is already a crime?"noveldrama
Unfazed, Felix asked, "Since you say I'm going to be sentenced to death, can you tell me why you hate me so much?"
Belle's eyes nearly turned red with rage. Crossing her arms, she said, "Why? It's simple. You're not worthy of Ms. Summers. You should have broken off the engagement and gotten lost!
"However, you act so high and mighty, as if nothing can truly catch your attention. You rely only on your status as a member of Dragon Alliance and your martial prowess.
"Ms. Summers is kind-hearted and doesn't want to go against her grandfather's wishes, so of course I must eliminate obstacles for her. Ms. Summers's future husband should be an outstanding man. You, on the other hand, are nothing!" With that, Belle stormed out.
Felix said nothing, only concluding that she was delusional, having completely imagined
herself as Xena. (1
Meanwhile, in a certain part of Yartford, Xena received a phone call.
"Ms. Frost has brought Felix to the station and won't allow any of us to interfere or get involved, Ms. Summers."
Xena furrowed her brows. "I see."
What tricks was Belle up to this time?
At least as far as she knew, Felix hadn't committed any crimes. If she was doing this just to vent her frustration, it was going too far. Did she really think she could use the power granted by the people as she pleased? After trying to call Belle several times without success, Xena stood up.
"Belle, you can't act rashly!" she thought.
She immediately called Bradley, and he answered the call quickly.
"I'm almost there, Ms. Summers."
Xena was confused. "What do you mean?"

"Didn't you ask me to come to the province to assist local forces in eliminating bandits and thieves? Your signature is on the document from Ms. Frost."
Without saying another word, Xena hung up the phone, her body trembling slightly." You've got some nerve, Belle! Prepare the plane. We're heading back to Avesburgh immediately."
She suddenly had a very bad feeling and wasn't sure if she would make it in time.
At the Phoenix Legion's base in Avesburgh, Belle wasn't alone when she returned to the
room.
"Felix, here's the case report. You can sign it now."
Felix didn't even glance at it and directly said, "You know I won't sign it. Likewise, you also know that my refusal won't have any impact on what happens next, right?"
Belle smiled. "You're very clever. Indeed, it won't have any effect. I'm just going through the motions. You killed one person and crippled another, so sentencing you to death is proper and legal."
In the next moment, she leaned forward and whispered, "Once you're gone, Ms. Summers won't be held back by anyone. She won't have to waste time on you. Ultimately, your death is caused by your incompetence." Felix leaned back, placing his legs on the table. You'll soon find out whether or not I am competent."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was flung open.
"Come quickly, Ms. Frost! The Warlord of the East is here!"
