Chapter 4 Objection あり!

A calm voice rang out.

Lynn quickly turned her head away, and at the same time, the atmosphere in those seats began to thicken, and some magicians even exclaimed.

Without him, the people who came were so famous in this clock tower.

If Lynn is famous for his deeds and personality, then Monarch Almeloy II is because of pure anomalies. Obviously a monarch (lord), even if his personal strength is added to the fame bonus, he is only at the level of the sacrificial position, and his qualifications as a magician are really mediocre to the extreme. But on the other hand, the level of being a lecturer surpasses everyone else, and even rumors have spread that "anyone who walks out of El Meloi's classroom will become the crown in the future", and he is a fantastic legend.

And......

"I think I should have no problem coming here, after all, no matter what, I am also the monarch of the modern magic department."

In a black vest, he wore a long red trench coat, a yellow ribbon around his neck, and long black hair that was not well groomed, and his brows were a little tight, but he didn't show any special meaning after all.

By the way. He held a cigar in his hand a little tremblingly, for him who was not strong in magic, this was the only way to let him walk in under the hostile gaze of many magicians.

"Cut, that's really giving me trouble."

After hesitating for a moment, Lynn still sighed, and the words made by Dayuan in his hand turned into a visible substance, circling around the second world, making a small barrier to block external malice.

In this way, even the weaker II can catch his breath a little, but it also makes those magicians look at themselves again.

However, the price was that a moment later, Lynn's left hand was also sealed in the same way, and he could no longer use his familiarity with the layout of the magic workshop here to make some sneaky small actions to facilitate prison escape.

"Thanks."

"It's okay, you're here to save me anyway, aren't you?"

"Make no mistake." The Second narrowed his eyes, "I didn't intend to save you from the beginning, and even more so half of these charges are true—I'm sure you really want to blow up the Tower of the Hours—but when the news of your public trial spread to the Magic Society, a stupid apprentice from far away in the Far East called me and begged me, as well as your aunt, the Helsings, who paid me a large sum of money. ”

"Well, it would be nice if you came over."

It looks like I'm going to have to give Tosaka a call to thank you when I go back. Lynn thought to herself.

"However, I didn't know you had a lawyer's license."

"I don't have a qualification, after all, I still exist as a magician anyway, and the law of ordinary people is not completely applicable here."

"So you have experience as a lawyer?"

Lynn expressed deep skepticism.

"Isn't the lawyer or something just quietly collecting evidence that the police don't know, and then Shi Shiran slapped the other party's face with language and logic, and came up with decisive evidence when he finally decided to turn the tables? Don't worry, I've done a lot of this kind of thing. ”

"Hey, don't bring your detective's mind here!"

Ignoring Lynn next to him, after tidying up his appearance, the second raised his head and spoke to the magicians sitting high in the seats.

"Back to the point, I should be fine as this guy's defense lawyer."

The magicians in the seats exchanged their heads for a while, and then the hook-nosed judge Shi Ran spoke, "Yes." Did anyone even make a new stool? ”

There was a snickering from the stage, and a moment later, a red-shirted wooden chair with a backrest silently appeared beside II.

Judge Hooknose continued: "Well, although there is a little episode, but the accusations will not stop because of this, so ......"

He took out a scroll from the somewhat messy table in front of him, and with a slight shake of his hand, the scroll rolled down the high seat and did not stop until it was close to the ground. There is no doubt that the above are all the charges of the clock tower against Lynn.

After repeating the accusation again, Judge Hooknose asked.

"It's a little late to say that, but are you sure you're Lynn Helsing Yogdomrainia herself?"

Seeing that he didn't pay attention to his own plans, Lynn could only hang his head and respond, "There is no doubt about it. ”

"Those hundreds of aether bombs that are enough to threaten the safety of the Magic Association were planted by you yourself under your own will, right?"

"Of course, I'm more than happy to blow up ......"

"And you also used this incident to threaten the Barsmelo family and Lord Zelrich on the spot, right?"

"Yes." "But the situation was ......," Lynn said.

"Don't interrupt the judge's questioning!" Judge Hook Nose casts a haze of sight from the shadows.

"Without the consent of the curse and the two family of plants, they stole each other's leylines without permission, right?"

"Yes."

"When I was in Japan, I clashed with the official forces and caused a major earthquake in the entire underground forces in Japan, right?"

"You may not believe it, but they did it first......"

"The most important point!"

Judge Hooknose suddenly raised his voice, completely overpowering Lynn's plea.

"That big barrier you unfolded in Fuyuki City may expose the magic world, and this is the most important thing!"

That's right.

Whether it's stealing the leylines, threatening the entire Clock Tower, or clash with other forces, it's a trivial matter for the cold-blooded and indifferent magician family. Not all families are related to those two factions, or have their families stationed in the headquarters of the Clock Tower, as for conflicts with other factions? I can't say that conflict is not in line with the common sense of magicians.

However, there is only one exception.

For magicians in the traditional sense, maintaining the mystery of the mystery and hiding the world is really like eating and drinking, and anyone who wants to expose magic is against all magicians. This is the reason why Lynn's actions have caused so much hostility among so many people.

"Yes." Feeling the angry gaze coming from above, Lynn closed her eyes and pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly but firmly.

"DPM011, [Garden of Love Dyeing], which is enough to block the space-time of a city in another world, the Cradle Garden Technique, which was launched by me."

"Well, the charge can be established, right?"

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It seems that the dust has settled.

Other accusations can be exonerated through judicial transactions and the like, but this is the only thing that the Magic Association cannot tolerate.

When Lynn admits that "he was the one who started the Great Enchantment", the mission of the court accusation is half completed, and the big people who hide themselves in their hoods look at Lynn with resentful and happy eyes.

The resentment is due to the fact that for most magicians, it is impossible to unfold such an enchantment even with the help of props, which is enough to be called crowned.

Fortunately, because in the end, the enchantment was not discovered by ordinary people, and the magic world was not exposed because of this.

So they laughed, sarcastically, and looked at their sacrifices with hungry eyes. As long as the hammer in the courtroom falls, Lynn, who is sitting in his seat and bound by chains, will be "torn apart" by them, completely plundering all value.

Even Lynn, as if resigned to his fate, lowered his head and covered his eyes with bangs.

Then, someone laughed softly.

In such an atmosphere, there are people who can laugh out loud.

While the big people in the seats looked around, one of the people in the audience slapped the chair hard and stood up.

"Objection!!"

That's the second who has been ignored by the jury before, and has been unable to interject just now. I saw him stand up, and with an unquestionable momentum, he raised his right hand, and the tip of his index finger pointed at the hook-nosed judge.

"I deny the claim of being convicted!"

Lynn: "Well, I'm honored that you've defended me, but what's going on with this enigmatic momentum, how do you feel like your hairstyle will turn into an exploding head in the next second." ”

"Oh, against the charges, Monarch Elmeloy II, I think you know what you're talking about." Judge Hooknose said in a somewhat dangerous tone.

"Even if the 'Modern Department of Magic' doesn't pay that much attention to mystery leaks, you shouldn't be so partial to this guy."

"Objection!!"

"It's not partiality, it's a basic logical relationship. You know, I don't really have a lot of affection for Yugdomilenya, but this time, I'm quite okay with him opening that enchantment. ”

II is talking about the last crime, the one that the magicians have attacked the most.

"Do you know what he did?"

"You know, you have solved a bunch of man-made monsters, solved a bunch of deep divers who came out of the seal, and saved the civilians of a city by using a otherworldly enchantment that can stand still in time and space."

After a slight pause, II took a hard puff on his cigar and looked at the big men above with an inorganic gaze without fear.

"Also, the mystery of the magic world is guarded."

As soon as this sentence came out, the people in the seats above shouted like a frying pan without reserve.

"There's a limit to joking!"

"Even if you are a monarch, you must take this sentence back to me!"

"That heretic can guard the mysteries of the magical world? You might as well say he can save the world! ”

Seeing this, the originally imposing II couldn't help but cover his face: "A group of idiots......"

"Reconsideration."

"Listen, Monarch Elmeloy II." After the commotion above had subsided a bit, Judge Hooknose slowly spoke: "No matter how much you have dealings with Helsing, please don't insult your reputation as an Elmeroy School, you have to think through your brain before saying it!" ”

"objectionあり!!!"

Lynn: "Why are you in that pose again, and is there any special significance?" ”

II: "I'm really wrong to expect from you...... Do you really know the current situation? ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

PS: It's a pity that the second is a black long straight, otherwise I would have been able to play with the stalk of the hedgehog's head and sharp horns (sigh)
