Damn, I recarneted As A Judge in Fantasy World

Chapter 78: Human Trafficking [2]

As expected, like the master, like the servant.

For a guy like this, I have to show him the evidence right in front of his eyes before he will accept it.

Of course, I could have avoided it until the end, but that was none of my business. As long as it's reasonable, that's fine.

"The grand Duke of Sierre is holding an event in such a remote fortress? It's very suspicious. What exactly is going on?"

"Is it a crime to introduce a good job? If you want, bring in anyone and ask them. If they are innocent, you will have to pay the price."

The attendant proudly stuck out his chest.

It doesn't matter whether I ask or not.

The women who come here probably don't even know that they are being sold. But I accepted his offer right away.

"Really? Okay. Fine."

As I started to walk briskly, the soldiers flinched and retreated.

It was a natural reaction.

Isn't this a situation where you intuitively see your colleague getting beat up?

I even picked up a grown man and threw him with one hand.

Even those who have been trained cannot help but be afraid. As soon as the path opened, I moved straight somewhere.

But it was at that very moment.

"Now, wait a minute. Where are you going?"

Cold sweat formed on the forehead of the attendant blocking the way.

That must be proof that he was surprised.

I grabbed the bastard by the collar with a sweet smile on my face.

"Why are you asking?"

"This is just a warehouse. All the people are inside."

"That's funny."

Where does this guys sell his drugs? I've seen them put a fancy-dressed woman in there.

I pushed the attendant aside and turned the doorknob.

"Eww!"

Clank! Clank!

As expected, this place was locked tight.

It seemed there was a padlock and even a lock on it. Moreover, since the door was made of iron plate and boards, it was impossible to force it open with any amount of force.

But that's only the case for ordinary people.

'There are no such restrictions here.'

I immediately drew up my transcendent power. A powerful force that can destroy anything.

?Activation of Destructive Retribution?

Wiggle!

A huge force started in my arms and flowed through my entire body. It felt so heavy that it was on a whole different level from when I used it before.

Still, it was enough to aim at the target and pause the firing for a moment. But now, I felt like I couldn't bear it without pouring out all this strength.

'I just tried to break the door, but didn't the building collapse as well?'

I felt a strong sense of unease, but it was already too late.

Once the skill is activated, it will only end if it hits the target. I dodged the gavel to avoid damaging the building as much as possible.

Swoosh!

A brilliant blue halo drew a line across the sky. Parts of the door and wall were exposed to the catastrophic punishment, and a strange sound was heard.

Parsak!

It felt like a sandcastle was collapsing. As the gavel turned, a beam of light shot high into the sky.

Soon, the corner of the fortress literally disappeared without a trace. As if some giant monster had taken a bite out of it.

Pusssss....

In the blowing sand and dust, I held someone's hand. It was a woman wearing a dress that was torn in many places.

"I think this person would definitely testify?"

"Oh, shit..."

The servant was about to swear.

The words that followed were probably orders to attack. But he never had that chance.

My gavel was already flying.

Bam! Thud!

The attendant rolled his eyes and fainted from the blow. I curled the corners of my lips and blurted out a word.

"This is an arrest in progress. If you want to end up like this guy, you can rebel."

Soon after, the sound of weapons being thrown away could be heard here and there.

Chaeng! Chaeng!

Of course, the only option would be unconditional surrender. Since they're going to jail anyway, they should at least take good care of their heads.

The deepest part of the palace, the Emperor's office. Emperor Charon was reading the report with focused eyes.

Even today, the chief of staff, Adit, was sweating profusely.

That was because His Majesty had not said anything for 30 minutes already. He knew that he had to hold on no matter what.

If he broke his thoughts for no reason, he would just get scolded. The silence that had continued for so long was finally broken. Find adventures at m v lem|p-yr

"The restoration of Deliart is about halfway done. They achieved this in just six months?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"They earned the money by selling that medicine?"

"That's what they say."

Although it was all in the report, the Emperor confirmed it once again through the chamberlain's mouth.

That was because the content was so unbelievable.

Wasn't it the Deliat Autonomous Region that countless administrators have challenged so far?

The report's authenticity was questionable, as it normalized such a place.

"And they're even making something this strange."

In front of the emperor was a board game called Emper Trip. It looked quite interesting because the rules were easy but not too simple.

One, he couldn't try it right away. Because there were only two of us here. The chief inspector quickly handed over the next report.

"It seems to be quite popular not only within the Western Alliance but also within the Empire."

"If it looks fancy, it would be perfect for the nobility to enjoy. But then, wouldn't it not sell well?"

"They say that there are also commoners' coins with fake currency in them."

"You make all sorts of strange things, and they all turn into money? That's interesting."

The emperor smiled and looked out the window.

Lately, he had been really impressed with his cousin's actions.

In some ways, he was a threat to his position because Abel Carriers also had a right to the throne.

But Charon didn't think it was dangerous.

"If he shows his teeth, only eternal rest will remain."

The Emperor's eyes and ears, his sharp dagger, will take away his cousin's life. The light laughter soon turned into a bitter smile.

Knock knock.

While he was taking a moment to cool his head, someone knocked on the door.

When the emperor was on duty, no one other than Adit, the chief chamberlain, was allowed in.

And yet, someone knocked on the door? It meant that it was a very urgent matter.

"Come in."

Then the door opened and one of the Imperial Guard knights saluted.

Judging by the markings on his armor, he was a black agent like Cordell McNeil.

"Your Majesty the Emperor."

"What's going on?"

"The Duke of Sierre has been arrested and will be brought to trial shortly."

"...what?"

Emperor Charon looked bewildered for the first time in a long time.
