"Of course we are talking about this divine judgment."
"Lord Rajiv, as the heir of Castel and the Rose Society's true allegiance, I have reason to suspect that there is someone behind this sacred ruling against the Rose Society."
Charlotte said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the trial knights changed.
They looked at the girl with expressions that seemed angry and sarcastic.
Rajiv narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly:
"Miss Charlotte, do you know what you are talking about?"
"The Rose Society protects wanted pagan demi-humans, smuggles contraband, secretly colludes with the Blood Demon Order, and participates in several Blood Demon cases in Boulder. The president, Sebastian, even has contacts with the Adam Order..."
"These matters have been secretly investigated by the trial court, and the evidence is conclusive!"
As he said that, Rajiv's expression turned cold:
"Now that the matter has come to this, do you still want to excuse the Rose Society? Or is it that Castel wants to protect the Rose Society?"
Charlotte sighed and took out a roll of parchment from her arms:
"Lord Rajiv, this is exactly what I am going to say."
"In fact, I only officially got in touch with the Rose Society not long ago, and I know that the other party is the Castel family's secret agent..."
"These days, in order to understand what the Rose Society has been doing over the years, the Castel family has also done some investigations."
"The Castel family has also received some information about the things you mentioned, but there are some discrepancies with what you said."
"First of all, sheltering pagan demi-humans is a slander. To be more precise, the Rose Society takes in demi-humans. The real purpose is to help lost demi-humans return to the right faith!"
"These demi-humans were indeed pagans once, but they have long since changed their beliefs under the light of our Lord and become devout holy believers!"
After hearing the girl's words, Carla, who had a hint of brilliance in her eyes, paused slightly and couldn't help but glance at her.
And Rajiv, whose pupils were also filled with silver light, also frowned slightly.
However, they did not interrupt the girl, and Charlotte did not pause:
"Secondly, the Rose Society is involved in the Blood Demon case... This is not the case. In fact, the purpose of the Rose Society is to investigate the actions of the Blood Demon Order."
"Furthermore, Sebastian of the Rosary Society does have contacts with the Adam Order...but it is not a collusion as the whistleblower said. The fact is just the opposite. Mr. Sebastian actually offended the Adam Order and had to come.
To the Crescent Kingdom."
"Finally, as for...the smuggling of contraband, this is indeed a fact, but which underground force does not engage in this kind of behavior? The Castel family is willing to pay a fine for the smuggling of the Rose Society, but this...is not enough to bring down the Rose Society.
Defined as an evil organization."
"These things... the Castel family also has conclusive evidence, Lord Rajiv can check them one by one."
Charlotte was slow and concise.
After saying that, she handed the parchment in her hand to Nice and ordered him to hand it over to the Judgment Knight.
Rajiv took it and did not open it to read, but said calmly:
"Miss Charlotte, I wonder if you know that Judgment has a solidifying magic called the Eye of Truth, which can identify lies."
"Very few people can master this solidification magic, but I happen to be one of them..."
As he spoke, he looked at the girl coldly:
"Miss Charlotte, you lied."
As soon as these words came out, the judgment knights looked at the girl even more angrily, while the demon hunting knights also looked surprised and couldn't help but look at Kara.
Kara was silent for a moment and nodded slightly:
"She did lie."
When the demon hunting knights heard this, they immediately fell into a commotion and felt guilty for a moment.
Inside and outside the Rose Manor, everyone's eyes were focused on the girl, with surprise, anger, doubt, worry... all kinds of emotions included.
The girl's expression also seemed a little surprised.
Her expression changed, as if she was a little confused, but in the end she let out a long sigh:
"I'm sorry... Lord Rajiv, I did something wrong."
"You are right...I did lie."
"I don't know the real reason why Sebastian, the president of the Rose Club, took in demi-humans, so I can only give some high-sounding reasons..."
"However, I have been in contact with the demi-human companions of the Rose Society. I dare to swear to the Holy Light. The Holy Light will tell us that they are all true holy believers!"
After hearing the girl's words, Rajiv's eyes twitched.
The Eye of Truth told him that this time the girl told the truth.
Charlotte stood up straight, with a magnanimous look on her face.
The witcher knights all looked at Kara again.
"Truth."
The female knight said calmly.
The demon-hunting knights stirred for a moment, then straightened their backs one after another.
Some of them even whistled and started to cheer:
"Judgement, please give me a word!"
"Yes, what Lady Charlotte said is true and she also brought evidence. What else do you have to say?"
"The sacred ruling is illegal! This sacred ruling is illegal!"
Soon, the Demon Hunter Knights began to collectively boo the Judgment Knight.
It wasn't until Kara glanced at them coldly that they shut up.
Only the demi-humans from the Rose Society were stunned, looking at each other with blank expressions.
The True Ancestor is here!
When did they... become believers in the Holy Royal Court?
The demi-humans did not have a good impression of the Holy Royal Court, and some of the well-limbed and ill-tempered Wolf Ears even changed their expressions on the spot and were about to have a fit, but they quickly calmed down under the signal of their leader, the werewolf Luv.
The werewolf leader frowned and looked at the girl talking to the Judgment Knight.
Although he didn't know what the other party was thinking, but thinking about the respect that Master Sebas had for the girl and the confident look on his face, he had a strange thought inexplicably...
The other party may really have a solution.
This thought made Lu Fu himself feel incredible.
As the second-in-command of the Rose Society, this was the first time he had met Charlotte of Castells. Before that, he had even been vaguely dissatisfied with her.
However, at this moment, looking at the girl under the night, he didn't know why he felt an inexplicable belief in her words for no reason...
That feeling is like some kind of instinct.
The werewolf Luf was surprised and confused.
On the other side, the second-level judgment knight Rajiv gradually frowned.
This was a situation he didn't expect.
He originally thought that the girl was just messing around, but he didn't expect that he had proof in his hand.
only……
"Miss Charlotte, this is just your one-sided statement. Although the information on paper is detailed, its authenticity has not been verified, and it is not impossible to delay time and forge evidence. On the contrary... the trial court's accusations against the Rose Society
, but an investigation has been carried out.”
Rajiv said in a deep voice.
After hearing the words of the Judgment Knight, Charlotte smiled slightly.
After wandering around for a long time...she finally came around to this topic.
In fact, she had prepared the words first and then the truth, and her purpose was to continuously divert everyone's attention, so that everyone would eventually ignore the various loopholes in her words and focus on the identification of the trial evidence.
Really good...
"You are right."
"We are indeed suspected of delaying time to fabricate evidence."
"But the same thing...why isn't the reporting information in your hand carefully planned and forged?"
The girl said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, Rajiv was stunned.
His eyes swept over the demon-hunting knights, and finally looked at the leading girl, his expression turned cold:
"Miss Charlotte, are you questioning the ability of the Inquisition?"
"No... I'm just worried that the knights in the trial have been deceived. If my guess is correct, this report should be anonymous, right?"
"This divine judgment is full of doubts. I'm just worried...that the great divine light has misjudged its devout believers."
The girl shook her head.
"Presumptuous! Are you questioning the glory of our Lord!"
After hearing what the girl said, the other second-order knights beside Rajiv became furious.
Rajiv's face became even more ugly.
He signaled the other trial knights to calm down, looked at Charlotte deeply, and after pondering for a moment, suddenly sneered:
"How about this?"
"Since Miss Charlotte is so confident and distrustful of our trial, then let's hand everything over to the judgment of the Holy Light."
"The evidence may be wrong, but the Holy Light cannot lie. I have never heard of demi-humans changing their beliefs. What is the truth... I will leave it to the Holy Light to testify."
After listening to Rajiv's words, the girl raised her right hand, drew a standard ring cross on her chest, and said piously:
"Praise the Holy! This is the best. I believe...the great God will witness the purity of the Rose Society, the just Holy Light...will witness the piety of the Rose Society!"
Looking at the girl's enthusiastic look, Rajiv frowned slightly, somewhat confused as to whether she was really stupid or pretending to be stupid.
"Judgment of Holy Light?!"
The demon hunting knights were also startled and looked at the girl with strange eyes.
That's right, the Holy Light doesn't lie.
But at the same time, Holy Light is also more strict.
Especially the Judgment of Holy Light.
Judgment of the Holy Light is a sacred magic that judges the target's beliefs. It was first created by Benedict III, a saint of the Holy Royal Court.
Under the Holy Light, those with firm beliefs will remain unscathed, while disbelievers, those with weak beliefs, those without faith, and those who have committed sins will all be severely punished under the Holy Light.
It ranges from insanity to death directly under the burning of the holy light.
This is the most severe judgment method used by the Holy Royal Court.
The Tribunal may still judge the wrong person, but the Holy Light Judgment will not.
Not only that, for the most severe Holy Light Judgment, even stains that have nothing to do with this divine judgment are often magnified infinitely...
Hundreds of years ago, the most important reason why the Holy Court eliminated Holy Light Judgment from the Holy Judgment was that this magical art was too rigid, to the point of being rigid to the point of evil. In order to identify the camp, the Trial Office was originally intended to be absorbed into the Judgment Force.
All the sinners were “purified”.
At one moment, Rajiv even had an illusion.
The Inquisition just wants to wipe out the Rose Society and replenish the local Judgment Force with fresh blood.
But Charlotte of Castells...wanted the death of everyone in the Rose Society.
Even if the knights of the church are like this, the faces of the Rose Society are even greener.
"Well...can I join the Judgment Force directly without accepting the Holy Light Judgment?"
Some people were almost crying and even raised their hands.
Rajiv ignored the commotion at the Rose Club and said calmly:
"Since Miss Charlotte wants the Holy Light to judge, then prepare for the Holy Light Judgment."
At this point, it no longer matters whether or not people from the Rose Society are accepted into the Judgment Force.
The matter was such a big deal, he had to win back his face.
It was obvious that the young heir of Castel had no idea what a severe divine art the Judgment of Holy Light was.
Childish, simple, even a little stupid!
As an underground gangster, the Rose Society has a dirty butt. How could it possibly stand the judgment of the Holy Light?
Rajiv's expression became colder and colder.
This time, he must deal with the Rose Society and the Castel family severely, in order to warn the world about the authority of the Tribunal!
Following Rajiv's order, the Judgment Knights immediately took action.
They came to the members of the Society of Roses, raised their silver swords high, and spoke in fanatical and pious voices:
"My lord Harald!"
"You are the creator of the new world!"
"You are sacred in the royal court!"
"May your holy light come,"
"Give the evil spirits the most severe punishment..."
"..."
Many members of the Rose Society turned pale when they saw the knights and priests who came in front of them and began to chant incantations and release the judgment of the Holy Light.
"No! Don't! I plead guilty! Don't use Holy Light Judgment!"
some people exclaimed.
However, it's too late.
The Knights of Judgment have always been quick to act.
As they sang, the bright holy light suddenly bloomed in the Rosary Manor, drowning everyone.
Some people suddenly let out shrill screams.
But shouting, shouting, their voices disappeared.
Not dead.
Instead, his whole expression revealed confusion.
Looking at their own hands that also exuded a soft halo under the holy light, they were all stunned.
Eh?
Why... doesn't it hurt?
The demi-humans were even more stunned to see the light of faith in themselves.
Huh?
When did I really become a holy believer?
On the other side, looking at the members of the Rose Society and the knights of the church who reflected either dim or bright light of faith under the holy light, they were also stunned.
Good guy...some people's beliefs are stronger than theirs!
Rajiv frowned slightly.
He looked around, his eyes fell on a judge, and he threw the judge into the holy light.
Along with the shrill screams, the members of the trial team who were thrown into the holy light quickly turned into ashes...
Rajiv's frown deepened.
The holy light lasted for about half a minute and then disappeared.
Among the people in the Rose Society, some people were indeed purified directly, and many were in a trance. They obviously also received certain punishments, but the vast majority of them survived.
