Episode 1224. What a great verdict!
Escorted by the Phoenix Knights, the guards and three wagons passed through the gates.
Andrea Jeter did not move with her back stiffly erect.
I thought he was a wandering adventurer, but he’s a count.
He was also a person with such a high level of retardation that the Marquis sent him to the knight commander.
To him, who was only a member of the baron family, the count was a difficult existence to dare to look at.
Even his wife, Shine Cowles, was alert and didn’t even breathe.
Born into a baron family, she was well aware of the ferocity of the great nobility.
The great nobility is, in a word, a tiger.
No one knows what the tiger is thinking.
To be honest, she liked but was afraid that Synclair’s teacher was a great noble.
It was like riding on the back of a tiger.
Unlike parents who were confused by expectations and fears, Synchreer Jeter was good.
It was because the Count was much better than the Master being a wanderer.
Meanwhile, in the other wagon, the Wayne Scotts were breathing heavily.
The two did not open their mouths after the identity of the adventurer was revealed.
I didn’t show it on the outside because of face, but inside I was indescribably distressed.
It’s not because I’m jealous of Synclare Jeter’s luck.
It was because he was worried about how he would come back to slander the adventurer without knowing he was the count.
It was the same with other nobles who joined the adventurer’s slander.
Aside from the complex screening of the nobles, the carriage ran smoothly down the road under the escort of the knights.

Written by Marquis Reg Evans.
Passengers, as well as the transportation manager and five guards, were ushered into the banquet hall.
When Elio and his party entered, the butler of the Marquis family shouted.
“Guardian of the Skutum (ice wall) that protects the continent from those ferocious demons! The legitimate ruler of the Duchy of Lorraine, Latinus, and Northern Slash Land! A great grand master who stands shoulder to shoulder with Archduke Kaiser Knauf, the fittest son of the sword! Count Elio Lagoa is entering!”
After his introduction, the waiting bardos started playing in unison.
Magnificent music shook the banquet hall.
After the short performance, the nobles gathered in the banquet hall clapped madly.
clap clap clap-!
The Marquis, Marquis Reg Evans, smiled brightly and approached Count Helio Lagoa.
“Come, Count Lagoa. I am Marquis Reg Evans, lord of Odessa. A warm welcome to Odessa, the gateway city.”
Despite his high position, he greeted Count Elio Lagoa first.
“This is Elio Lagoa.”
After greeting Elio, Marquis Reg Evans’ eyes turned to the back.
“They must be Count Omar of Larva and Baron Fabian Cloud. Nice to meet you.”
“I am Count Omar of Larva. It is an honor to meet you.”
“I am Baron Fabian Cloud.”
After a brief greeting, Marquis Reg Evans led Count Helio Lagoa and his party to the table of honor.
Marquis Reg Evans and Count Helio Lagoa sat side by side, and Count Larva Omar and Fabian took their seats next to them.
The servants of the Marquis took the standing passengers to seats on one side.
Marquis Reg Evans, who prepared this special banquet, got lucky first.
“I have heard a lot. Is Skutum safe now?”
“Yes, I heard that the rift is returning to its original state. It is said that the power of the creator god came back to life after removing the charat (bone fragments with curses).”
“iced coffee! I hope it’s good. I heard that he also fought against demon lords... Is that true?”
“Somehow it happened.”
The elderly Baron Gryan Scott collapsed on the spot as soon as he saw Marquis Legg Evans.
“Marquis! Please save my life!”
The performance stopped at the cry of Baron Gryan Scott.
Wayne Scott, who belatedly found his father, hurriedly ran forward.
said Marquis Reg Evans, frowning in displeasure.
“Why do you ask me to save you after committing a crime against Count Lagoa?”
Baron Grean Scott turned his head to Count Helio Lagoa.
“Count Lagoa! Help me!”
Wayne Scott, who finally understood the situation, knelt down next to his father.
“Wrong! Forgive me!”
Elio looked down at Wayne Scott and turned to the passengers.
The corner of his mouth went up when he noticed the white Iza Crow.
After a while, Elio’s mouth opened.
“Baron Scott. What is the punishment for insulting a great noble in the Empire?”
“Depending on the severity of the crime, they are sentenced to imprisonment, forced labor, slavery, hanging, etc.”
“If someone called me a pervert and a scumbag, what kind of punishment should I punish?”
Baron Gryan Scott closed his eyes.
I heard about it from the knight commander on the way, but I didn’t know it was that much.
“...hanging.”
“Okay, an honest man. Who do you think should be hanged, Baron? Is it the baron who raised the wrong child? Or is it the son of the baron who insulted me?”
After hesitating for a while, Baron Gryan Scott answered with a crawling sound.
“...I think that as an adult, you deserve to be held accountable for your actions.”
“Isn’t the baron guilty of raising his child wrongly?”
Then Baron Gryan Scott raised his head.
“I had two sons and a daughter, but the others were brought up right.”
that it’s not your fault
Wayne Scott, who was lowering his head, looked at his father with resentful eyes.
Elio asked Wayne Scott this time.
“Wayne Scott. Whose fault do you think this is? Is it the baron’s fault for teaching you wrong? Or did the baron teach you well, but are you the only one perverse?”
“Isn’t it said that children are the mirror of their parents? It is my father who made me this way.”
That’s true.
Now, Wayne Scott was in a state of despair when his father told him to kill him.
Elio looked down at the two and said with a satisfied face.
“with pleasure. I’ve been thinking about how to deal with this problem, and they gave me a very good answer. Since the two marquises each claim that it is the other’s fault, it is clear that both of them have sinned.”
An awkward smile appeared on Marquis Reg Evans’ lips.
You said earlier that you shouldn’t kill people too much, but you’re going to kill the father and son.
“Do you want Count Herman to hang them both?”
“The hanging seems a bit excessive, and I want to enslave them both. If you become a slave, you won’t be able to slander or curse others, right?”
“A fine judgment! I was truly moved by Count Lagoa.”
When Marquis Reg Evans suddenly stood up and applauded, the nobles in the banquet hall clapped along.
After a while, when the applause died down, Marquis Legg Evans gave the order to the knight commander.
“Deprive criminals of titles and nobility, and list them as slaves in Odessa.”
“yes!”
Before long, Count Berthe Pons beckoned to the escort knights nearby.
Four knights approached and grabbed Baron Scott and his son by the arms and pulled them out.
When Marquis Reg Evans winked at the Bardos, the music resumed.
