-69- Fists are the last word
In the world of Miria, the nobles of transcendent status had many privileges, and even the Church, which was usually unable to arrest or interrogate the nobles beyond their lords.
However, there is one exception.
That is, when the nobles collude with the evil groups judged by the Holy Court, or when the nobles themselves are involved in evil things, and the evidence is conclusive.
There is no doubt that Castel, who has an ambiguous relationship with the Rose Society and hires a demon knight to make trouble at the time of the Judgment's divine ruling, has undoubtedly touched the bottom line of the Judgment Knight.
They met all the conditions for the Church to arrest the nobles.
As for what to do after the arrest, that's a later story, and the church will definitely negotiate with the feudal lords.
If you are not a demon, as a nobleman, your life will not be in danger under normal circumstances, but if you go through the trial, you will definitely have to pay some price, at least you have to peel off your skin.
Whether it is the nobleman himself, or the family represented by the nobleman after that......
Rajiv didn't need to worry about the follow-up, it was a headache for the duke and the high priest.
As the executor of the Inquisition, all he knew was that Castel who challenged the authority of the Holy Court and the Inquisition must be punished, along with the demon hunters who had their brains in the water and were somehow bewitched!
A total of five Judgment Knights of the Second Order of the Silver Moon who participated in the Divine Judgment stood up at the same time.
And behind them, more than a dozen Starry First-Order Judgment Knights, more than twenty Starry First-Order Judgment Priests, and more than a hundred trainee Trial Knights were also ready to move.
They soon surrounded Charlotte's carriage with more than a hundred demon hunters.
It's a rather terrifying force.
If it is placed on the battlefield, so many transcendents who have undergone special combat training are enough to easily deal with the army conscripted by the feudal lords.
The expressions of the demon hunters became serious almost instantly.
They gathered around Charlotte's carriage and watched warily at the Knights of Judgment who had gathered around.
The girl in the carriage was still calm and calm.
She jumped out of the carriage and came to the head of the knight of the Judgment, Rajiv, pinched the corners of her skirt and saluted gracefully:
"Hello Your Excellency the Knight of Judgment, I am Charlotte de Castre, Lord of Castre, and you are the Rajiv who led this divine judgment, right?"
"The Castel family has some objections to this divine ruling, and we have reason that this is a conspiracy against Castel by the forces behind the scenes, and we ask you to suspend the trial."
"Master!"
"Lord Charlotte!"
Seeing the girl getting out of the carriage, there was a burst of exclamations among the arrested members of the Rose Society in the manor.
Charlotte looked over and saw quite a few familiar figures inside.
There was no way, the Inquisition moved much faster than them, and even with the help of Castel's induction badge, some newcomers and Castel's old servants had already been captured by the Knights of Judgment.
At the same time, the core members of the Rose Society also raised their heads, looking at the girl with curious and complicated eyes, including the werewolf Lufu and the other sub-people.
As Sebas's followers, they naturally knew that Sebas had pledged allegiance to the maiden of Castel.
Sebas's decision cannot be changed, and they can only obey it after persuasion as a follower fails, but that doesn't mean they are equally loyal to Castel.
But at this moment, looking at the girl who led the demon hunter knight to hurry to stop the divine judgment against the Rose Society, their hearts were finally touched a little more, and at the same time, there was great confusion......
What is the relationship between the Rose Society and Castel?
Why did Lord Sebas pledge allegiance to Castel's heir?
Why are the heirs of Castel willing to stand up for the Rose Society under so much pressure?
That's a lot of pressure...... The Inquisition had so many privileges that no nobleman was willing to really deal with these fanatical madmen.
The members of the Rosary Society were very confused.
Charlotte was quite sober.
Because she knows that saving the Rose Society is also saving herself.
And she's not without hole cards.
"Don't worry, everyone, with me, the grievances of the Rose Society will be washed away."
Charlotte said to the people in the manor.
After listening to the girl's words, some people were grateful, some looked worried, but there were also many people who looked confused:
"Wronged...... Wrong? ”
Although I don't think my family really deserves the divine judgment of the Inquisition, my family knows what I have done.
How can the black and white in this world be so obvious, the boss who has been in the outer city for so many years, their ass ...... It's not very clean.
Anyway, they don't have the confidence to escape the verdict.
Many people are a little weak and their eyes are wandering.
"Charlotte of Castel......"
Rajiv secretly looked at the girl in front of him who had left many legends in Boulder in recent days, and muttered to himself.
As rumored, she has a beauty that looks like a god's blessing.
Even if he had already dedicated his body and mind to the gods, it was difficult to look away from the other party's perfect face carved by the most exquisite craftsman.
He suddenly understood why the Demon Hunter Knight was on the other side.
Such a beautiful lady and a wealthy family are really likely to be in the water under the double temptation of beauty and money in the bastards who want to fight against the trial every day.
What a bunch of idiots!
But alas......
The Inquisition never looks at how it looks!
Looking at the beautiful girl who stepped forward, Rajiv's words were still firm:
"Suspension of trial? Miss Charlotte, do you know what you're talking about? ”
"Do you think that by hiring these guys to stand behind you, you have the right to interfere with the trial work of the Inquisition?"
"Please respect yourself, if you disband your team at this moment, I can treat it as if nothing happened."
Rajiv said with a solemn expression.
It's just that even he didn't realize that his expression had eased a lot after all.
And...... At the beginning, the decision to arrest people when they were ready to meet them also became "please respect yourself" when it came to your lips.
Seemingly...... A face that looks good at fouls will still affect people's decisions.
Even if it's a knight of judgment with firm convictions.
"I'm sorry, Lord Knight of Judgment, I'm here to stop this illegal divine ruling."
The girl shook her head slightly.
Rajiv's expression instantly turned cold:
"Illegal? Miss Charlotte, do you teach what the Inquisition does? Do you think you have what it takes to say this? ”
"Or ...... Do you think that with this rabble, you can stop the inquisition's actions? ”
As he spoke, his gaze fell on the demon hunters.
Indeed, in the eyes of the Knights of Judgment, who have been cultivated as the core force of the Church since childhood, these Demon Hunter Knights, who were recruited by the Church from among the wandering knights, free mercenaries, and declining nobles, are indeed a rabble.
Looking at his contemptuous eyes, the demon hunters suddenly glared at him.
However, no one really dares to do it.
Rajiv snorted coldly, and looked at these demon hunters with even more contempt:
"Waste, no matter how much it gathers, it is still waste!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a cold female voice sounded:
"Oh? What if you add me as a piece of waste? I don't know...... Eligibility? ”
Hearing this cold, familiar voice, Rajiv's eyes froze slightly.
He looked behind the Demon Hunter and saw several horseback figures slowly appearing in the night.
At the head of the pack is the chief captain of the Boulder Demon Hunt, Kara.
Beside her, she was followed by three other Silvermoon Knights belonging to the Bolt Demon Hunter, as well as ......
Well?
The Duke's son, Leno?
Rajiv was stunned.
His face soon became gloomy:
"Lord Kara, is the Demon Hunt here trying to rebel? And also...... Does the Duke's Court also want to stand up for Castel! ”
Rajiv's gaze fell coldly on Leno's.
"Don't look at me, I don't represent the Duke's Palace now, only me, now I'm just a rude mercenary, taking money to do things."
Leno said with a smile.
After saying that, he whistled at the girl in front of the carriage:
"Miss Charlotte, don't forget my commission afterwards! It's about the same as a Demon Hunter! ”
Charlotte: ......
You called this guy?
She glanced at the black cat.
I can't get it! I didn't call him again!
It's too late for the Duke's Palace to steal fun at this time! How is it possible to come out and help!
Ness gave a pitiful, puzzled look back.
Charlotte's gaze shifted between Leno and Kara, her expression a little strange.
The illegitimate son of this duke's family......
It can't be that Nice called Captain Kara and sent it with a phone bill, right?
However, although Leno's help was somewhat unexpected to Charlotte, the addition of a new second-order knight undoubtedly made her a lot more confident.
In particular, the Knight of Judgment didn't know that the licking dog was probably just following Kara.
Eighty percent of them would think it was the Duke's Court supporting Castel.
This tiger flag, don't talk about it!
I saw her smile at the Judge Knight, her smile was sweet and cute:
"Honorable Rajiv, Kara-sama and Leno have arrived, and now...... Can we have a good talk? ”
On the other side, Rajiv's face sank completely.
Starry first-order and non-rank demon hunter knights, he can be scolded as a waste.
But the Silver Moon Second Order can't do it.
Not to mention, as the chief captain of the Ball Demon Hunting Place, Kara, who is the most promising person in Ball City to step into the Blazing Sun Third Order in recent years, and whose source power has faintly had a tendency to transform, Kara ......
She alone can beat several of them!
After all, fists are still the last word in negotiations.
In the absence of the Grand Knight, Rajiv and the other Judgment Knights looked at each other and fell silent.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Looking at the beautiful and charming girl, Rajiv suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly.
