Businessman Santos received a message from Boris's butler three days ago, and Boris butler made it clear on his letterhead that he had helped Santos settle the matter.

So when the news of the trial came from the Inquisition of the Elven Council, the merchant Santos did not feel apprehensive, and he even had some expectations, hoping to witness the wonderful scene of the trial with his own eyes.

Santos walked into the Inquisition and explained his identity to the elven guard at the door, who immediately invited him to a separate room.

Before entering the room, he also tried to ask the elven guards for specific details about the trial......

The elven guards didn't say much, and it was certain that the trial was not canceled.

A faint chill came out of Santos's feet, and he was a little flustered at this point.

He tried to push open the door and walk out of the private room, but was stopped by the elven guards outside.

Footsteps could be heard in the hallway outside, and the atmosphere became more and more dreary......

……

In the courtroom, Roy sat again in the bottom first row, with Claire sitting next to him.

After the two of them sat down, some more elves walked in one after another.

The seats in the courtroom weren't full, but there were many Silver Moon Elves sitting overhead, which still put a lot of pressure on Roy......

The biggest difference from the last trial is that the presiding judge has become younger, and he looks like a silver moon elf with extraordinary origins.

Roy wondered why the presiding judge was staring at him all the time.

He thought about it, and he didn't seem to have done anything out of the ordinary recently, so he wasn't afraid that the presiding judge would keep staring at him.

Sitting across from Roy were the three elven guards of the Castletown Harbor Guard, and this time they were the real accusers, and Roy did not complain about Santos and the elven assassins.

Once the auditorium was full, two elven guards escorted the elven assassin with heavy shackles on his hands and feet.

The elven assassin was still wrapped in a mummy on his chest, and his face was relatively poor, and after coming out of the iron prison, the elven assassin looked up at the audience for a moment, and then lowered his head in some disappointment.

The presiding judge, Orn, glanced at the elven assassin as the large iron door on the first floor of the Inquisition resounded with the creaking sound of rubbing.

Santos, the merchant, was escorted to the court hall by two elven guards, and the elven assassin saw Santos and his eyes glazed over......

Apparently he didn't expect it...... Businessman Santos was also arrested.

This was a change from what he had expected, the elven assassin did not look at the merchant Santos, and the two did not even communicate at all.

Presiding Judge. Ellington announced the official opening of the trial, and instead of questioning Santos, he asked the elven guards at the port docks in Castletown to testify.

The elven guards in the guard were clearly prepared, and the elven guard sitting in the middle stood up and asked Orn. Ellington says:

"Judge, after our investigation, we can confirm that the elven assassin Tracy assassinated Roy, a student of Elf Academy, at the intersection of Brown Street on the afternoon of July 11, and he first shot an arrow at Roy in the corner, and the arrow hit the magic book on Roy's chest, and the assassination failed. Tracy then prepares to flee the scene along a pre-designed escape route, but is stopped by the half-breed elves of Brown Street on the seawall and finally captured. ”

The elven guards of the Castletown Harbour Guard to Orn. Ellington recounted the incident.

"After our follow-up investigation, it was found that the reason why the elven assassin went to assassinate Roy was completely at the behest of the merchant Santos, and Roy's recent magical herb business affected the business of the merchant Santos, so he held a grudge and hired the elven assassin Tracy at the door of the adventurer's union and asked him to help assassinate Roy."

After the elven guard finished speaking, his eyes fell on the face of the merchant Santos again.

Santos, the merchant, heard the elven guards say this, and his whole head exploded.

Boris's butler made it clear in the letter, telling Santos that the trial had been settled.

Santos came to the trial this time purely to see the excitement......

But what the elven guard said was clearly an accusation against Santos, who felt his legs go a little limp, and he sat down in his chair.

Presiding Judge. Standing on a vine, Ellington flew around the halls of the Inquisition, then looked down at Santos, who was a little lost in his soul, and asked him:

"Santos, is there anything else you want to defend yourself?"

Santos, the businessman, had lost the last shred of his sanity and raised his head to Orn. Judge Ellington exclaimed, "...... I didn't want to kill him, I just wanted to scare him into giving up the magic herb trade, I really didn't want to kill him. ”

Ounn. Ellington frowned and asked Santos:

"So...... Santos, you admit that you instructed Tracy to assassinate Roy? ”

“……”

After some questioning, Santos, the businessman, really didn't know how to answer.

In the end, I could only bow my head and say: "I plead guilty, I am willing to accept punishment, and I am willing to compensate Roy for some losses to make up for the mistakes I committed." ”

Judge Orn immediately flew in front of Roy, and he looked at Roy again, he couldn't understand why his sister Edith was so impressed by the half-elf......

Judge Orn coughed lightly before staring at Roy and asking:

"Roy, do you accept out-of-court mediation?"

Roy and Claire beside him glanced at each other, although the elven assassin and elven merchant at this moment were pitiful, but as long as he thought of the appearance of Santos at the gate of the academy at noon that day, Roy said categorically:

"I don't accept it, and I hope that the laws of Castletown will teach them the lessons they deserve."

Judge Orn nodded, and the jury deliberated, and after another argument, the sentence against Santos and the Elven Assassin finally came down.

Presiding Judge Orn personally pronounced the verdict:

"Santos was sentenced to one hundred and fifty years in prison for murder, and Tracy was sentenced to one hundred years in prison for attempted murder."

The businessman Santos was a little dumbfounded at this time......

The Boris butler swore that he would help him withdraw the lawsuit, but now that his crime has been convicted, the Boris butler has not been able to help him get rid of the crime at all.

An elven assassin with a large amount of bandages on his body...... Tracy, at the moment, didn't say a word.

Because he knew very well in his heart that as an assassin, once the mission failed, being imprisoned was already the best end.

After the trial, Santos, the merchant, is detained by the elven guards.

The elven guards escorted him from the Inquisition to a prisoner cart, and the elven assassin sat across from him, Santos stared at the elven assassin Tracy with a gloomy face, his eyes full of deep resentment.

The elven assassin was also glaring at Santos and yelled at him, "You said ...... Even if we were caught, there would be no trouble, but now we have to sit in the prison van and wait for them to take us to the Parram Island prison......"

Santos, the merchant, immediately replied:

"You also said that this assassination was absolutely foolproof, fool, look what you have done!"

If it weren't for the two of them with shackles on both hands and feet, it is estimated that they would definitely fight.

The elven guards in the prison cart hurriedly stopped......

……

At the door of the Inquisition, Orne. Ellington was the first to leave.

However, when he passed by Roy, he stopped unexpectedly, and he turned his head to stare at Roy and asked:

"Do you know Edith?"

"You mean Edith. Miss Ellington? Roy asked rhetorically.

Ounn. Ellington nodded.

Roy quickly explained, "She and I used to study the modern history of the elves told by Princess Ophelia, and I was in the same group as Miss Edith, so Miss Edith would take a little extra care of me every time!" ”

At this time, the entrance of the Inquisition was crowded with a large number of Silver Moon Elves.

"I seem to remember something like that when you say that." Ounn. Ellington said, not daring to stay at the door for too long, and said to Roy, "I'm Edith's brother...... Ounn. Ellington. ”

"Hello, Lord Judge." Roy hurriedly greeted him.

Ounn. Ellington nodded, and left the courtroom first.

……

After all this toss, Roy became famous in the circle of magical herb firms in Castletown City.

It was rumored everywhere that the young half-elf young man who had just established a magical herb trading house had directly overturned Santos, a magical herb dealer, and not only sent him to the Pallam Island Prison, but also occupied a large number of primary magical herb markets in Castletown City.

It is estimated that Santos will not escape from prison anytime soon......

Subsequently, Roy, who had obtained the supply of low-level magical herbs from the Partington plane, took the opportunity to encounter a large number of magical herbs in Castletown City, and prepared to distribute them in large quantities.

The supply that Roy got this time was almost all the goods left behind by Padstow City, and the value of these primary magic herbs was low, and it was better than the quantity......

With this trial, Roy is not ready to sell it in the future.

Elementary Magic Herbs are among the least popular, but essential magic herbs in the early magic shop.

Roy delivered the magic herbs directly to the store this time, and the price was pressed down again and again.

With a low price, Roy successfully delivered a large number of low-grade magic herbs to the magic potion shop.

Because Roy had to deal with a large number of magical herbs every day, Roy couldn't keep himself busy, so Woods also began to help Roy deal with these magical herbs.

The Black Pearl had become a warehouse of magical herbs, and the cabins were just dry enough to store these low-level magical herbs without any problems.

The only trouble was the supply ships of the 17th Silver Pegasus Army, which had been docked at Castletown no longer in recent times, and Roy had to take the galleons on the harbor docks if he wanted to get to the Partington plane.

At the same time, the Magical Herbalist Chamber of Commerce also sent a notice to Roy, informing that:

'Roy is forbidden to lower prices and engage in malicious competition. ’

Roy happened to be on the Black Pearl when he received this notice.

They got a batch of magical herbs from Leysander on the Partingon plane, and the biggest problem with these magical herbs was that they were not systematically classified.

"What does the letter say?"

Woods asked aloud when he saw Roy sitting in the bow of the boat, his brow furrowed.

"It's a notice from the Chamber of Commerce, let's not maliciously lower the price, and there is also a page of magic herb price breakdown attached to it." Roy shook the notice in his hand.

"Are we going to adjust the price?" Woods asked.

"It's still going to be adjusted, at least to give an ......explanation to the Chamber of Commerce," Roy replied.

……

During this time, the rebels and elven headhunters on the Pajisto Plateau were still fighting.

Although Roy is secretly supporting the rebels, there is a large group of plateau mine owners standing behind the elven headhunters, so the situation on the rebels' side is very bad.

When Raysander brought in the magic herbs, there was no smile on his face......

I guess they have already made a decision, but Roy needs to poke this matter aside.

Roy personally visits the Earl of Swinburne and tells the news of the half-blood elves, mine owners, and elven hunters on the Pagisto Plateau.

"You're saying there are actually more than a dozen mines on the Pagisto Plateau?" The Earl of Swinburne sat at his desk with his fingers crossed and asked Roy earnestly.

"Yes, Lord Count." Roy admitted.

Earl Swinburn's eyes lit up, and he continued to ask, "Those mine owners can't buy elven slaves, so they want elven hunters to catch half-blood elves on the plateau?" ”

"Well, they've been doing this lately." Roy said.
