Chapter 540

Hearing the approaching footsteps, Athma looked up to see Thanatus. With anxious eyes fixed on him, she asked nervously, “Thanatus, does His Majesty

wish to see me?”

Thanatus looked a bit troubled. He bowed respectfully to Xander, who stood to the side, and said, “Your Highness.”

Xander nodded slightly. Then Thanatus turned to Athena and said respectfully, “Please rise, Viscountess. His Majesty requests your presence.”

Hearing this, Athena’s face lit up with joy as she rose to her feet, but in her excitement, she nearly stumbled back down.

ander steadied her with a hand on her arm. Meeting his worried gaze, Athana managed a faint but reassuring smile and said, “Don’t worry about me. I

handle this”

“Alright. I’ll go with you,” Xander said gently, staying by Athena’s side as they entered the Heaven Hall together.

The moment Athena and Xander stepped into view, Arthur’s authoritative gaze immediately fixed on them.

Athena fell to the ground. After performing a deep ceremonial bow, she raised the evidence high above her head. With conviction, she declared, “Your Majesty, Thave irrefutable proof that General Perkins never embezzled a single coin.

“Long before the military pay was even due, he had already sold off his assets and personally distributed all the money to the soldiers

“These pawn tickets clearly record the exact year, month, and day of each transaction, what items were pawned, and how much money were obtained.

“Furthermore, the precise use of every single coin is meticulously documented in this ledger for all to see.”

Athena’s voice was choked with anguish, every word heavy with sorrow as she fought back tears.

Kurtis had bome the stigma of infamy for years and was subsequently exiled to a remote region.

After he had suffered so much, Athena vowed to clear his name.

Thanatus handed the evidence to Arthur Arthur frowned as he examined the pawn tickets, his eyes misting over.

Kurtis sold off all his properties and land, keeping only a dilapidated home.

Every penny he made from the sales was distributed as military pay.

Even though Kurtis exhausted every possible means, the fund was ultimately insufficient, and many soldiers still went without their pay

The wires and children of unpaid soldiers went to Kurtis’s residence and wailed in despair.

Adults, children, and the elderly wept together, their cries merging into a heartrending chorus.

Even worse, some people who were desperate to feed their children were driven to prostitute themselves just to put food on the table.

Arthur looked at Athena, his eyes brimming with profound gratification, “You are truly remarkable. If your grandfather were to know, he would be deeply proud of you.”
