Chapter 331. Knight (5)

With heavy steps, Iger stepped into the courtroom.

Last night he didn't sleep well, he was used to meditating and falling asleep, and he didn't enter a meditative state until very late last night, and the psychological pressure went through the passage of time and the divergence of his own imagination, all kinds of good and bad associations made him feel anxious, and this anxiety has not appeared in his emotions for many years.

After so much time since the execution of the four Jun'en spies, it was very surprising and passive for him to be re-mentioned, and he had written about the espionage incident and the final results in his debriefing report, but because of the suddenness of the incident, and this incident was caused by his own cavalry Pato against his will, and he also used lynching.

After dealing with this matter at the time, he also taught Pato a stern lesson in private.

After the lynching was used, the tragic scene made it impossible to hold a public trial against them, although he later told the city lord Viscount Orin the details, and Viscount Orin also supported his actions, and did not mention the lynching of Pato.

He had thought about a lot of bad scenes last night, and the end result of each scene made him very heavy, but he had no regrets. Out of selfishness, there is no mention of Pato's lynching in his report, because once Pato's lynching is mentioned, Pato and the knight are completely lost, and a cavalryman who lynches a prisoner cannot be awarded a knight in any case, there is no doubt about it!

"Knight Egger, please go to the circle of judges. A heavily armed saber soldier beside him said to him.

Egg nodded, forced down all kinds of complicated thoughts and thoughts in his heart, and walked into the circle.

After closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, he slowly opened them, raised his head, and looked around the courtroom.

The rectangular courtroom was full of people, most of them were very familiar to Egg, looking at the various eyes of these people, Egger's heart calmed down a little, the row of judges and arraignors directly opposite him except for a few parliamentarians wearing parliamentary clothes, most of the others wearing knight's uniforms, he knew.

An old man in front of Egger with a dragon bell and a bright look in his eyes waved his hand to one of the guard knights beside him.

"Quiet!!" the powerful voice of the knight of the guard echoed throughout the Inquisition.

The courtroom quickly fell silent.

The old man nodded to the knight chief Oswald, who was sitting beside him, who slowly stood up.

"Today, we've brought everyone together for something to be happy or celebrated about. It's not a glorious thing. Oswald's deep voice was full of seriousness and solemnity.

"Today, a knight will be interrogated here from the Knights' Court and the Parliament, this knight may be a little strange to all of us, because he has been stationed on the borders of the Arissanret Empire for a long time, guarding the Arissanite Empire. His name, Egger Previa!" Oswald's words rang out from a cacophony of discussion on both sides of the courtroom.

"A week ago, the Knight's Court received a letter of complaint. Oswald took out a piece of parchment and held it up for the people in the courtroom.

The letter of complaint came from a woman named Muni, who commissioned a member of the Chamber of Commerce to write the complaint. With that, Oswald took the parchment to himself and began to read it aloud.

"My name is Moonie and my husband's name is Stan. He died and was buried in a cemetery outside the city. I am very sad that my child has lost his father. ”

"The knight told me that he was a spy of the Jun'en Empire. I didn't know, and I didn't believe my husband could be a spy, he was just a helper in the Chamber of Commerce, carrying grain and meat every day. I don't know why he died, I lost him, my daughter lost her father. ”

"The knight killed my husband, he killed the father of my daughter. Some people say that my husband was tortured before he died, and I am very painful, my husband is just an ordinary chamber of commerce helper, and I hope that the knight will confess to me and my daughter the real cause of my husband's death. ”

"I hope that the court of righteous knights will do justice to a widow who has lost her husband, and to my poor daughter who has lost her father. When Oswald finished reading this passage, his resolute face was full of pain, and his eyes were misty.

After Oswald finished reading the simple but heavy indictment on the parchment, the entire courtroom suddenly fell into a huge discussion, and all kinds of doubts continued to be heard from the courtrooms on both sides of the courtroom. Several of the agitated women even covered their faces with tears streaming down their faces, and the sound of crying was mixed with the sound of chaos.

Egger in the middle of the courtroom, raised his head slightly, his eyes were closed, his chest was constantly rising and falling, he kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm himself, but he couldn't help clenching his hands, and he kept trembling. He had already fallen into self-reproach when Oswald began to read the letter of indictment. Oswald's every word and sentence stabbed into his heart like a sharp steel arrow.

"Quiet! quiet!"

"Quiet!"

After the knight shouted loudly several times, the court fell silent.

Oswald asked Iger with a solemn expression, "Knight Egger Previa, now we will interrogate you on behalf of the Knight Court and Congress of the Arissanret Empire. We ask you to swear in your name as a knight and in the Holy Spirit that what you say and what you answer is true. ”

Egger's body couldn't help but tremble, and the violently beating heart made him feel a little out of breath, and he was in a trance for a while.

"Knight Egger Previa, swear in the name of your knight and the Holy Spirit!" Seeing that Iger did not respond, Oswald repeated in a deep voice.

Oswald's words brought Iger back to his senses, and he slowly opened his eyes, sincere and resolute.

He looked directly at Oswald, then at the familiar faces on the interrogation seat, each representing the dignity and will of the knightly court.

After taking a deep breath, Egger raised his head: "I, Knight Egger Previa, swear in the name of the Knight and the Holy Spirit that I will answer sincerely and without falsity from the interrogation of the Knight's Court and the Congress, and I swear that everything I say will be true and there is no falsehood!"
