Damn, I recarneted As A Judge in Fantasy World

Chapter 54: Skyler Sierra [1]

The dispatch of a western governor was put on hold for the time being. It was because such a huge incident had occurred.

"It's not that I don't want to go; it's all that rotten basterds fault, so what can I do?"

Of course, that doesn't mean I can't go west forever. Once the imperial edict was issued, it was impossible to refuse. However, it was not right to pass this incident on to someone else.

'Who on earth can handle that pressure?'

It's an incident involving the successor to the Duke of Sierre.

There was no one else who could take charge of it except me, the Supreme Court Justice.

"But why is there no response?"

"What are you talking about?"

"The western region is just as important as the kidnapping of Princess Justia."

"Yes."

"Shouldn't some guidelines have been given by now?"

Isn't there anything I can say?

Either tell them to finish it quickly or mediate within appropriate lines. The emperor really didn't move at all. This makes me feel even more anxious for no reason.

"Just do what you always did."

Judge Colund Emir gave a reasoned opinion.

It was a statement that made me nod in agreement.

When have I ever given consideration to me because I'm a big shot?

There were instances where the lands of powerful families were confiscated, and even the heirs of count families were imprisoned. Of course, they weren't going to give him any leniency just because he was the successor to the Duke of Sierre.

But Joseph was different.

From beginning to end, this guy only shouted opposition for the sake of opposition.

"No. It is highly likely to have a very negative impact on Imperial politics and society. Let's end it somewhere appropriate."

It was such a blatant defense.

Joseph just protect him because they are from the same party.

That's why I say you shouldn't let nobles get together.

They're just trying to make the irrational seem rational.

"Let's hear the results of the investigation first."

I just turned a deaf ear to Joseph's stubbornness. Anyway, that guy is useless except for taunting the Giovanni noble faction.

Finally, we entered the courtroom.

I was sitting down and being greeted by people as usual when suddenly a certain person caught my eye.

A guy who sits with an arrogant attitude and grins as if he finds it funny.

'He really doesn't listen.'

Looking at his neatly trimmed blond hair and chubby body, he was exactly like the Duke of Sierre.

That guy is probably Skyler.

Since I only had memories from when I was young, the face felt very unfamiliar.

This was the first meeting between the court and the prosecutors. He never showed his face during the entire investigation. It was all because of the Duke of Sierre's influence.

'Even so, you won't be able to avoid prison.'

The evidence was already overwhelming. In addition to Princess Justia, other victims were also appearing one after another.

Our beloved prosecutor Corbin Sears was biting and tearing like a hunting dog.

"There are a total of 37 high-level human trafficking cases that have been identified so far. If we include those whose status is low and therefore cannot be traced, the scale of the damage is expected to be even greater."

A grim-faced prosecutor, Corbin Sears, closed the trial proceedings.

Even though his sins were being exposed one by one, Skyler didn't care. He just crossed his legs and wiggled his ankles.

'No, is that okay?'

I didn't think so after seeing his arrogant attitude.

Even if you can't do it, it seems like you can easily lift over 100kg, but you can cross your legs?

I was just amazed at the transcendent flexibility. Anyway, he'll become as obedient as a sheep. Even though the capital city prison has been modernized, this was still the Middle Ages.

Even if it were just confinement (imprisonment without hard labor), it would be incredibly painful. It's dirty, there's no sunlight, and the food is terrible.

This is an environment where one could easily get sick.

'The diet will go well. You'll come out healthier, you punk.'

I forced my lips, which kept rising, down.

Then I stared at Corbin quietly. Now it was the prosecutor's turn to sentence.

"… So, sentence the defendant to 20 years in prison."

Honestly, I thought the sentence would be a bit higher. It's a crime that deserves severe lifetime punishment.

We also need to give the image of diplomatically severe punishment. But for Corbin Sears, this might have been the best option. I can't do anything about it, but I can put pressure on that guy.

'He must have had a bit of a headache.'

Still, 20 years wasn't bad.

While Skyler is in prison, he can be convicted of additional crimes to add to his sentence. I don't think he would have done anything more than that. I immediately took out the gavel.

"I hereby sentence the defendant to 20 years in prison. In addition, I hereby impose a fine of 2,000 gold coins for the relief of the victim."

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thus, Skyler's fate was decided.

The guy is 22 years old. After serving his sentence, he will be in his 40s.

He will spend his youth, which should be blooming beautifully, in a damp prison cell. Being dragged to the workhouse every day. It was the most fitting punishment for a wicked person.

But Skyler just smiled broadly.

'Smile?'

For a guy who ruined his youth, his reaction was too indifferent. I thought of the serial killer Lorenzo, who used to laugh and beg me to kill him quickly.

Then, when the death sentence was actually handed down, he smiled and said thank you a lot. It was to show that he was not afraid of death, but his feelings must have been different.

'He did that on purpose. He was so scared I thought he was going crazy.'

That guy will be the same too. The inside will be rotten and decaying. To find out if that was really the case, I immediately brought up the information window.
