Leaving aside the matter of the GMG, since we discussed all that back then, why should he go to jail over lying to Anna?

He is the freakin' king of the country and Anna is who again? Some random woman he never met before who came out of a door that supposedly leads to 400 years in the past. Neither Anna nor Layla have any kind of authority over ANYONE, much less the king of the country. Not to mention that lying to someone is not a crimilar offense.

Hell, trying to order a king around is more likely to be a crimilar offense!

Besides we don't even know IF the king broke that promise. For all we know he might have destroyed the gate and later built a new one. Or he might have tried to destroy it, but failed.

Remember that even Yukino and Lucy - both quite powerful mages - together couldn't put so much as a scratch on the damn thing and it was ultimately only destroyed when a Dragon crashed into it.
