There is an ancient bell tower in the city of angry waves, the bronze yellow bell is mottled due to the changes of the times, and the peeling copper pieces make the public look full of holes and scars, but he has faithfully abided by his obligations for centuries. The bell strikes four times a day, the first at six o'clock in the morning when the sun rises, the second at twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the third at eighteen o'clock in the evening when the sun sets, and the last bell at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, announcing the end of the day and the beginning of the second day, a new and new cycle.

The first bell rang in Angry Waves, and the dull, loud bell gradually resounded until it woke up all the inhabitants of Angry Waves.

Today is Judgment Day, and the dust will settle.

The nobles gathered in the archon, anxiously awaiting Duke McCarvey, the lord of Wave City and the supreme of the entire South, whose words would determine everything.

"Everything is ready, everything is ready. Julian soothed Berryron.

Julian's unwavering gaze reassured Berryron, who had a big fight with Duke McCarvey a few days ago in order to protect his sister because of the bastard. In the eyes of Berryron, maybe Julian will not be a qualified lord in the future, but he is legally recognized, the first in line to the throne, how can he let a lowly illegitimate son usurp his power.

Suddenly, the noise in the hall ceased abruptly, and fell silent, and the eyes of the people looked in the direction of the gate, and the tall wooden door was pushed open, and the Duke of McCarvey walked in, his face solemn as if it were ice, and suddenly the whole hall became solemn.

Duke McCarvey sat on his high seat, looked down at the crowd, and said, "Let's start!"

Julian stepped out of the crowd and saluted his father, then raised his head proudly and squinted at the other side of the crowd.

At this time, the Count of Noamon staggered to the front of the stage with the support of his friends, and at any time the Count of Noamon appeared, many nobles who had not seen him before couldn't help but shout in surprise, where is this the strong and mighty lion they are familiar with, obviously a sickly old man, the face of the Count of Noamon is defeated, and his body is thin like a living corpse that has just crawled out of the cemetery, what kind of torture did he suffer in his nightmarish night!

Duke McCarvey glanced at Noamun, and after a moment, said, "Today I will arbitrate two matters. The first thing to do is that Julian McCarvey, Count of Karazhan, claims that he has been assassinated by Andrew Noamon, Earl of Casterme, so he attacks the Great Rock City. The second thing is about the orcs arrested in Count Noamun's Great Rock City. ”

At the word orc, everyone could clearly feel Duke McCarvey's tone pause, his voice low and tinged with anger.

"And Julian, what evidence do you have that the Assassin was hired by Count Noamun?" asked McCarvey, looking at Julian.

Julian's face was solemn, and he opened his arms to the nobles and said, "Please believe that my life has been threatened like never before, and I have almost lost my life, just because I have the noble blood of McCarvey in my veins, which makes me hated by the mounds, which is undoubtedly very unfair. My sister Rosalind McCarvey was a guest in my city of Azuchi, and she can testify to me that my life is in danger and that I am standing here to speak to you because of the Father's protection. I...."

"Proof!" Duke McCarvey interrupted Julian rudely, "I ask you for proof that the assassination of you by the Assassin was at the behest of Count Noamun. I don't need you to talk and talk in my courtroom!"

Julian shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "No." I can't prove that the Assassin is from Boulder, and the only reason I've raised an army to attack Boulder is because I've gotten a vague clue and a few slight suspicions, but these things are hard to tell and hard to get into the lobby. I confess that the reason why I raised an army to attack Boulder was because of my blind impulse to panic when my life was so threatened. I can't prove that the Assassins are from Boulderstone. ”

Everyone never thought that Julian would admit defeat so simply, with different faces, some panicked, some doubtful, some joyful, and some contemplative.

"Julian!" Berrien whispered in a soft and angry voice, which was nothing more than he had envisioned, and the comfort that Julian had given him when he claimed victory had turned out to be a disaster.

It's no wonder that Bérilang is so eager, Duke McCarvey's younger brother, Marquis Andre McCarvey, is always stealing the power that belongs to his nephew, they have been lurking for a long time, and now they are beginning to show their hideousness, and at some point in the castle of Angry Wave City, another bastard child slipped in, Duke McCarvey doted on him, although he knew that the bastard's chances of victory were slim, but Berrylang was still worried.

Now Berry Lang is Julian's most loyal supporter, whether it is for his sister or for the entire Mogg family, he supports Julian, others can choose, but he can't, because Julian also has the blood of the Mogg family in his body.

Julian calmly comforted: "Don't worry, there is still a second trial yet!"

"Are you even aware of the seriousness of the matter?"

"Uncle, please believe me. Julian said earnestly, and the solemnity of his tone was obviously beyond question.

Seeing Julian's resolute attitude and calm complexion, Berry Lang had nothing to say but remained silent. To be honest, in the eyes of Berryron, Julian is just a second ancestor who can only get into trouble, mediocre and incompetent, and can only talk about it.

"Father, this is probably the only mistake you've ever made in your life. Berry Lang said to himself. Berry Lang revered his father very much----- the former Count of Slovenia, watching the life of his predecessor Count of Slovenia, cautious and shrewd, during the reign of Leoper, he was willing to endure the scolding as Leopold's dog and horse, as an executioner, the head of the Count of Gallach was cut off by him, and behind the scenes, but secretly gathered the nobles to conspire to overthrow Leopold, after Leopold left the city of Angry Waves, he learned that the original Count of Slonia, who was originally regarded as loyal, secretly confided his fangs to himself, and was the biggest rebel。

The Count of Slonia survived the dark and chaotic period, and was eventually honored by the nobility, and later, after Victor McCarvey succeeded to the Duke throne, he married his daughter Marianna to Victor, and proudly considered it the greatest investment in his life.

"My father probably didn't think that Mariana would give birth to such a fool. Berry Lang covered his face and laughed to himself.

Duke McCarvey was a little surprised, he thought that Julian would put up a desperate resistance without disturbance, and he did not imagine that he would give up so easily.

"So......" Duke McCarvey was just about to announce the punishment of Julian, when Julian suddenly said, "Father, please don't judge so easily, let me start the second trial first, about the Count of Noamun's collusion with the orcs. Julian said so, he said.
