The crowd suddenly remembered that she was responsible for going to the Great Imperial Princess to request help, and hope was reignited for a moment.
After all, Hillena holds a transcendent position in the Empire, and her authority is far beyond what the lone Ivyst can compare to.
Just when everyone was looking at Aphaya with anticipation, who would have thought she would shake her head and say,
"The Great Imperial Princess also said she was powerless."
Upon hearing this, the anticipation on everyone's faces instantly froze, as if doused with cold water.
Morris frowned as he scrutinized her:
"Aphaya, you clearly returned unsuccessful, why are you still so happy?"
Only then did everyone come to their senses and realize that Aphaya's expression was somewhat out of place with everyone else present.
Everyone was almost in despair, unwilling to accept the harsh reality that Lynn was going to be executed.
