She Was Sent by God - Chapter 147.2
Similar to how she arrived, Vasa left without any trouble. As the day wore on, the night grew longer. Agnes struggled to fall asleep before dawn. Laslo opened his eyes wide when he heard the sound of tossing and turning. Through a small window, Agnes was observing the moon while seated in a chair.
“Agnes.”
“Too many people died…….”
She murmured without looking back. Laslo let out a small sigh.
“Come in and rest for a while.”
“I feel as though I am standing on their dead bodies and blood for my own glory.”
“That’s the way of the king.”
Calmly, Laslo said. Agnes turned to face him and looked into his eyes.
“I truly believed that rebelling would free the populace from Sebastian’s control and that this was the only way to save them.”
“…….”
“However, when I counted, the number of people I killed equaled Sebastian’s.”
Both sides suffered fatal injuries during the 10-day battle on the Nopron Plains. Both the Arpad army and the Count Barania’s army suffered significant casualties. Agnes was also taken aback by the death of Emmerich Cellon during the battle.
Laslo took out the covers and approached Agnes. The moonlight made her back appear rather small and frail.
“You’re headed in the right direction.”
“Laslo.”
“Be a good king; that will be your way of paying them all back.”
“…….”
“We’re almost there; in two days, we’ll break down the gate, make Sebastian kneel, and you’ll be done; no one has to die anymore.”
“Yes.”
Agnes softly laughed at Laslo’s sincere attempts to persuade her. He tightly embraced her shoulders.
“As you requested, I’ll bring the queen out tomorrow.”
“Are you sure you don’t mind?”
“You already know that the palace is empty; I’ll bring the queen out safely; please wait a day.”
As he spoke, Laslo kissed her forehead and crown of her head repeatedly.
“You know we really need the queen.”
“I know.”
Despite raising an army in the name of overthrowing a tyrant, she cannot escape the stigma of usurpation. The soldiers’ morale will improve significantly if the Queen comes to the palace to join Agnes. Laslo will break into the palace knowing this.
“After I take the queen out, you may enter; as you have always said, hanging Sebastian’s neck is filial duty; hang it in front of the castle with his sins written all over it.”
“Laslo.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be by your side no matter what.”
Laslo said. Agnes blinked very slowly.
The moon was setting.

Laslo led five elite knights into the palace the next morning. Laslo and the knights were on guard and keeping a close eye on their surroundings when he first crossed the wall due to their nervousness.

However, when they realized that the palace was empty, that it was hard to even encounter an ant, they gradually relaxed. At least, there was a little boundary around the queen’s palace.
“Stand right here; I’ll bring the queen.”
Laslo made his way into the Queen’s palace. A young maid was the only thing in front of the bedroom. The maid trembled and fell to the floor as soon as she saw the armed Laslo.
“Please, please, save me.”
“I’m not here to hurt you; is the queen in there?”
“Yes, yes.”
With her face on the ground, she gave a frantic nod. Laslo strode past the maid and softly opened the bedroom door.
Even though it was midday, the room was too dark. Laslo walked forward through the pitch blackness.
“Your highness? Are you there?”
From the bedside, a very faint groan could be heard. Laslo hurried over. She discovered that the queen’s arm was restrained and tied when she pulled back the bed insignia.
“Oh my God, who could possibly do this?”
Only one person would dare to treat a country’s queen in this manner. Laslo repressed his rage toward Sebastian. He quickly slashed a dagger through the knot holding Ilona’s arms together.
“Are you all right, Your highness?”
“Who, Ah, Duke Arpad?”
Ilona recognized Laslo’s face only after he pulled the curtain back and let the light in.
“Is this king’s work?”
“How did you get here?”
They simultaneously asked each other a question. First, Laslo responded to her question.
“The Arpad forces have already besieged the area near the palace; they’re going to break through the gate tomorrow; before that, I came to take the queen outside.”
“It’s already been that long? Is the war over?”
“How long have you been imprisoned here?”
Before Agnes got to her feet, Ilona’s time stopped. Laslo couldn’t hide his sadness. Anyone will be forced to feel sympathy for her due to the fact that she suffered the loss of two children in quick succession. In addition, she was nearly imprisoned in the palace by her husband, the king.
“Call the maid and simply pack your clothes and belongings and come out; Agnes is eagerly awaiting the king’s fall outside.”
“Really?”
Ilona was too composed. She struggled to stand up from her chair and only fiddled with her bruised wrist.
“What are you going to do with Sebastian?”
“He’ll be made to pay for his sins.”
Laslo said firmly.
“Isn’t that sweet?”
“What?”

“No, it’s nothing.”
With a pale face, Ilona shook her head. Then there was a commotion outside. Laslo briefly left the queen alone before proceeding to the bedroom door.
A well-forged dagger caught her attention after she was left alone. The dagger was used to sever the rope around her wrist. After giving it a blank stare, she quickly picked up the dagger and tucked it away in her sleeve. With a grave expression, Laslo went back to the Queen.
