Black Haired King

93 guilty pleas.

In a very awkward carriage, we finally reach the royal palace, where we lead the samurai of the guide, proceeding in the order of the Duke of Septembalm, me and Mr. Germud.

When Mr. Germud asks if it doesn't have to be in front of me, he says it's just better behind me because it's better to stay away from the whole Duke of Septemberme.

Continue inside the royal palace and you will be guided to the moment of sight without waiting. When the samurai tells the soldier standing in front of the door that the Duke of Septemberme has arrived, the soldiers salute the Duke of Septemberme and open the door.

I'll leave my weapon with the soldiers then. I almost brought it in as it was. Danger. Danger.

After the Duke of Septembalm, I went in for a look... oops, this is brilliant again. The carpet is so soft that I wonder if I can step on it, it is decorated with artwork that I think will probably be expensive.

A red carpet is straightened from the door to the throne, and nobles stand on the left and right to pinch that carpet...... hence the mixing of Baron and Lady Gremond. Did the Duke of Septembalm call you?

Others are to General Raven and the Wristnick Marquis, and to Prince William to his sister. Baron and Lady Gremond, then my sister has a surprise look at me. Speaking of which, it's been four years since you've met the Barons of Gremond. You're a little old.

"His Majesty the King."

When he confirms that all the civilian people are in place, His Majesty the King enters between his glances. At the same time everyone bows their heads on one knee. I have to learn and keep my head down, too.

"Uhm. Give it a face"

Your Majesty's permission has been given, but is it good? That's good, isn't it? When I look flat on the side, I go up too because I'm raising it. Damn, I wanted you to tell me this in advance. It's so exciting.

"Duke of Septembalm. Isn't it unusual for the Lord to use the Duke's authority to gather us all together? I wonder how many things have happened that the Lord uses?

"Ha. I found a little troublesome. I would like to appeal to His Majesty the King to summon you all."

"Enough to be done. Did you have to call Baron Gremond and his wife for that story, plus William and Elicia?

"Yes, Prince William is not irrelevant to the horn, Baron and Lady Gremond, or Princess Elysia."

That's all the Duke of Septembalm says, he signals General Raven with his eyes. I guess I was talking to General Raven in advance.

When General Raven gave any instructions to the soldier who was on his side, the soldier left the room.

"But does the Duke of Septembalm gather us to say something about the engagement of Prince William?

It is the Wristnick Marquis who says so and laughs at Niyanya. Your fat stomach looks painful. Those twins inherit only a little shadow of their father, but little resemblance. I'm glad you look like a mother.

The Duke of Septembalm ignores the words of the Wristnick Marquis. I saw that, Wristnick. The Marquis looks uninteresting.

That's just where the door opens and the soldier who just walked out and walked in takes the lead. Behind it.

"Baba, Balto! Why are you here?

"Even Grukkas!

Baltic and Grucchus, bracketed with rope, came in. Baron and Lady Gremond, who saw the appearance, make a voice close to screaming. My sister also has a surprise look on her face by holding her mouth.

... Oh, Baltic's arms and legs are healing. Who cured you, here! I cut him off because of it!

Baltic and Grukkas are brought from just about everyone to the center position and forced to sit down. Behind you are soldiers holding down with long sticks to keep the Balts from moving.

"Was this guy definitely the eldest son of the Gremonds?

"That's right. This man, Bart Gremond, committed an unforgivable sin, so we captured him."

"... enough to bring everyone together. He must have done a lot of work."

"Yikes!"

Whoa, just one tone of His Majesty the King's voice dropped, and the air around him changed. Is this the king's intimidation? This alone keeps Baltic's body from trembling.

"Yeah. Bart Gremond is the boy next to me. As I'm sure you know, His Majesty the King will also see in the final of the rivalry, he will be the brother of Redius and the belly."

"Hmm. I heard that."

"Naturally, that spread in the school as well. As a result, Bart became pussy spoken of as' weak brother who can't beat brunette 'and' brother who does worse than brother '. Baltic, angry about it, tried to make Ledius a deceased, which was the beginning of this commotion."

"Become! Balto, you!

My sister was the first to react to the words of the Duke of Septembalm. They can't use magic during this glance, but there are occasional sparks scattered around my sister. You're pretty angry. That one.

"It's Elysia. Calm down, Duke of Septemberme, continue."

His Majesty the King stops his sister and urges the Duke of Septemberm to continue his conversation.

"Ha, and the first thing Baltic did was bring out Redius and his close associates. To that end, Baltic had threatened the Adventurer Alliance officials to get false requests for nominations from his people, and had hired Dark Alliance, mercenaries and bandits in the back to get ahead of the requested village."

"Were you letting the village get ahead of the bandits? Why would you do that?

"It's to wait for Redius' people coming to the village. That's why the bandits killed all the inhabitants of the village."

"What the hell!

Hearing Baltic's served sins, His Majesty the King slaps his voice absurd and slaps the chair as much as he wants. At the same time, the lady fell unconscious. Baron Gremond also manages to support his wife, but he is pale in the face.

"The village was that of my stepson, Viscount Barro. When I checked, the population of the village seemed to be about 300, but I asked the soldiers to confirm that a number of bodies close to it came out of the back of the village as undead"

... That was your first ear. I heard about it being killed, but I didn't know it was buried as it was.

"Ladius' companion, who has fallen into that Baltic trap, was able to help safely, but one of the two was badly injured and is still asleep. This is what they did."

The Duke of Septembalm finishes all his explanations. The aristocrats around them have silenced themselves with the scenes. Even that Wristnick Marquis has the look of crushing a bitter bug.

"... it's Raven. What do you think of this guy's disposition?

"Ha. When I hear about it now, the sins committed by Baltic are acts that hurt and betray a dear citizen of our country. Then it wouldn't be strange to think of the whole family as the death penalty."

"Wait, wait. Isn't that just too heavy? Sure, it's hard to forgive him for what he's done, but that's not the death penalty for the whole family."

And here I come with my mouth pinched by the Wristnick Marquis. Well, I guess the Wristnick Marquis is good if his sister is safe.

"Hmm, for now, the death penalty for Baltic and those who followed it is definitive. That doesn't change. Other families must also be punished in some way. But one says the death penalty and the other says it's heavy. What does the Duke of Septembalm think?

"Is it me? I first consider the deprivation of nobility to be definitive. And I think we should also think about what to do about the Princess Elysia King. One of our families has committed a terrible crime, and we can't have that family become the mother of the country."

"Hey, wait, Duke of Septiembalm! You're telling me that because of this, me and Elysia could be together, and you're pulling it apart!

The Duke of Septembalm proposed to stop talking about the deprivation of the aristocracy and the engagement of his sister, but naturally Prince William disagrees. But...

"Prince William. Speaking of which, I heard that you got permission to talk about this engagement as a reward because Prince William was active in the last war, right?

And, for some reason, the Duke of Septembalm tells a story about a time of war that has nothing to do with what we're talking about. You got something for me?

"Oh yeah, but what happened to that!?

"No, because what I heard was that it was another person who was active"

"Huh!"

And Prince William, who quite reacts to that word. If you react like that, you'll find out you're lying. See, His Majesty the King sees the face of King William and wonders.

"What do you call that, Duke of Septiembalm?"

"No, I don't know if His Majesty the King has heard of it, but the story tells us that it was helped by someone who was just in danger on Mount Nettle in the Kingdom of Britalis."

"Oh, naturally I'm listening to that. I guess the Britaliss army ambushed me where the army was going through Mount Neat. That's when William and his men fought back with a bunch of runaway soldiers."

Something I've never heard of before, that. It's a completely different story. Who told you that?

"Who told you that?

"Hmm? Those are the Kingsguards who were on the side with Williams? What's the difference?

"Yeah. That's not what I heard. The story I heard is that this Redius was ready to rebuild his body where the ambush made him dangerous."

"... what. Isn't it completely different? What do you mean, William?

"Oh, that's..."

"Don't be clear!

Whoa! Bit, I'm surprised! His Majesty yelled at King William's prince, who had gone astray. That was just unexpected, and the Duke of Septemberme is also circling his eyes. Something's fresh.

"William. Were you lying?

"... Gu, I'm sorry"

"... did Raven know about this?

"Ha, because I was getting a report from Kayness. His Majesty knows the story."

"No, it was General Kayness's men who came to Non. William, you can't be."

"… Yes, I gave the instructions"

His Majesty the King holds his head in the words of Prince William. Something just too unexpected has happened, and it's getting a little pathetic.

"... I have no choice. My name is William, and I will not speak of your king, Prince. Chill your head a little but good. The punishment of the Gremonds is firstly the death penalty for the main culprit Bart Gremond and those who followed his instructions. The Gremonds have been stripped of their title and banished from the country.

Elysia, I'm sorry to hear that your Lord has punished you as a Gremond. However, it is also with apologies that the Lord has also caused inconvenience that I lowered where it was originally the death penalty for my family to deportation. I hope you forgive me. "

"... Yes. I am the adopted son of the Wristnick Marquis, but also the eldest daughter of the Baron Gremond family. Let me take my sins for granted. I thank His Majesty the King for his consideration."

That's what I say, head down, sister. Thus, the cut-off to the Balts closed with a heavy crime: the death penalty and expulsion from the country.

... I had some anticipation, but it kind of turned out to be a bad aftertaste.
