“Yes!”
After a moment, Noir brought the judge over.
“Wolf King, I’m the Chief Judge of the court in Kiyoto, Cormac Pace.” The person who came was an old man in his fifties or sixties who appeared quite scholarly.
Andrius pointed at Tauren. “Let’s start with him.”
As he spoke, he handed over the evidence found in Tauren’s residence to the Lycantroops.
Cormac glanced at Tauren.
“Tauren Strand! He served as the Logistics Minister of the Central Warzone first battalion. During his tenure...” Cormac looked down at the evidence and frowned. “Although there were some indiscretions during his tenure, it doesn’t constitute a crime as a whole.”
What a convenient interpretation. Andrius could not help but laugh.
Although he already knew that Cormac was in cahoots with the ancient martial families, the blatant bias and distortion between right and wrong still surprised him.
“Are you sure there’s no crime?” Andrius narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. “During Tauren Strand’s tenure, he repeatedly handed over defense maps of the Central Warzone to the Swallow family. He leaked state secrets!
“Relying on his position as a general, he condoned his son’s abuse of power, resulting in three girls taking their own lives. He violated the law for personal gain! He also accepted bribes...”
However, before Andrius could finish speaking, Cormac snorted coldly. “Wolf King, I admit that you’re a professional in military affairs.
“However, passing judgment is my expertise. The power to interpret the law is in my hands. Everything you mentioned earlier has loopholes. I can defend Tauren for all of them!”
The power to interpret the law was in his hands? What a brazen thing to say! He was openly showing bias and exploiting loopholes!
“Is that so?”
Andrius let Cormac preside over the trial as a chance for him.
Unexpectedly, Cormac went so far as to exonerate Tauren and colluded with the ancient martial families...
In that case, Andrius had nothing more to say.
Bam!
He picked up a gun from a nearby Lycantroop soldier and shot Cormac directly. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
The scene fell into silence.
Whether it was the officials being tried or other members of the court, they were all shocked by Andrius’ ruthless methods. The Wolf King at ease meant peace in the entire world, but his anger would strike fear in even the greatest heroes! His dominance was truly unparalleled.
“You!” Andrius pointed at the Deputy Chief Judge, Keaton Morris, and said firmly, “Keaton Morris, you’re the Chief Judge now. You’ll preside over the trial!”
Keaton was so scared that he wet himself. He fell from his seat and knelt in front of Andrius.
“Wolf King... Wolf King, it’s not that I don’t want to preside over the trial, but the ancient martial families have control over my family. If I go against them, my whole family will suffer...” Keaton’s face was covered with snot and tears, painting a wretched sight.
Andrius narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. “If you don’t preside over the trial, I’ll send your entire family on their way right now.”
Keaton was also a high-ranking official on the list!
There would be no problem for Andrius to kill him.
“But- I... Wolf King, I beg you. Please spare me… I don’t want to work for the ancient martial families either, but I’m really in a difficult position. I can’t do it...” Keaton continued to grovel.
“You can’t do it?” Andrius stared at him and sneered. “There’s a broad road in front of you now. Can’t you walk it yourself?
“If you stand on my side and work for me and Florence, I’ll be your back. The emperor will be your backer! What is there to be afraid of? What’s so difficult about it?”
Andrius’ words were enlightening.
The ancient martial families were formidable, but the Wolf King was no worse!
If he won this bet, he could still live well, but if he did not comply, his head would be lopped off his shoulders...
“Okay! Wolf King, I’ll do as you say.” Keaton gritted his teeth and sat in the position of the Chief Judge.
“Tauren Strand! You served as the Logistics Minister of the Central Warzone first battalion. During your tenure, you abused your power for personal gain, accepted bribes, leaked state secrets, and violated the law knowingly...
“You are hereby sentenced to death!”
