Episode 16: I'm here because I don't have one * 5

So we went to court in King's Landing.

I wanted to go to court with Faye, Claire and Interlia, me and Laocles for when something else happened, and Carnelia, who seemed worried.

... these seven.It's a little big.

"If it's true, even the four of you, Fei-kun, Corn-kun, Interlia, and Carnelia..."

"As far as I'm concerned, it would be more comfortable for Claire to stay..."

"That's right. Outsiders, it looks like you can't do dirty things.Everything is going to be solved straight away.I don't hate it. "

Incidentally, Interlia and Laocles are simple force resolution personnel, and I'm a painter when something happens, but Krah seems to be a "dirty man."

... to put it very simply, when it comes to trouble, the people in the courthouse are enchanted by magic.Is it more peaceful than a solution by force... or not?

"... well, I guess Carnelia's better off with a lot of people.What do you think? "

Carnelia nodded nervously when she talked to Carnelia like she cared.

"Yes, it would be nice to have everybody here!

"Yes, thank God."

Carnelia laughed with a somewhat energetic face... and then she groaned with a bit of a magical face.

"... Angel, Lila, Onee-sama, and Princess Large would be more comfortable if they were here... and the knights of the forest and all the bones..."

... it's too big a zone, so that's no good.

And the bones aren't good for another reason...

Fay and Crowe are Red Dragons, Laocles and I are Alicorn, Interlia and Carnelia are on a horse, and Lian is on the move.

As the King's City approached, I couldn't help but calm down. [M]

... I wonder what Carnelia has to do with her bloodline.I can't imagine at all, I'm in trouble.

"... don't look like that.I can't help it where you seem worried. "

"I know."

That's what Laocles said when he glanced at my face, but if I try to calm down, I won't have any trouble.

"If you can't settle down, think of something to eat in King's Landing."

"Mmm...."

"... or think about what you want to draw in King's Landing."

Ah, yeah.

... but when I started thinking about something else, I might have been a little shaky.

Thinking about what you want to draw may be just right for when you don't want to think about it, or when you want to calm down.

When we arrive in King's Landing, we take an inn and spend the night there.

And the next day, I went to court.... very vigilant.

"It doesn't seem like there's any restraint on the way in."

"The exit has not been denied.Worst case scenario, if there's a disturbance inside, we'll get away with it. "

"Then I'll let Carnelia escape with Phoenix.I wonder if I can get out of the skylight. "

"If Carnelia flew out that skylight with a bird, it would be the second time...."

We enter the courthouse and wait for the opening of the meeting whilst we speak as we please.Carnelia seems to be a witness this time, so I decided to stick to the corner of the room...

I don't have a daughter.

... that's what Dioren said at the beginning of the trial.

We were losing our words in the frivolous court.

"So Phoenix is not the property of the Dioren family.Fines for Phoenix are an unreasonable request!... my main complaint is the withdrawal of an unjust request for a fine from the Dioren family.Claim that the fines imposed on the Dioren family are unjust!

Yes, Dioren raised his voice.

The courtroom is annoying.I can hear a lot of voices like, "What's impossible?"

"... Fay. What is this?"

Surprised, isn't it?

Faye, I, Claire, and Interlia all look amazed at Laocles.Carnelia and Lian look even more surprised.

... Giolen insists that Carnelia is not her daughter.

Phoenix claims that it is not the property of the Dioren family.

"The fine the royal family has demanded is 20,000 pieces of gold, which greatly exceeds the Dioren family's ability to pay and is too high in light of past jurisprudence!

The Dioren family's claim is that 'the fine is too high'.Looking just that way, it looks like Mr. Dioren is on the verdict.

Looks like you're complaining to the royal family, and it's probably true that you're aiming to reduce the fine... but if you don't want to pay the fine, I think that's what Giolen would rather say than seize Carnelia's Phoenix.

And yet, I am deliberately turning the Royals into enemies, suing for a reduction of the fine and denying Carnelia's kinship....

"No, the Dioren family has property.It's a huge asset called Phoenix. "

An official from the royal castle begins to object to Mr. Ziolen.It seems that I have prepared a lot of materials, and I somehow seem to be reluctant to roll it up.

"Buying Phoenix in the Royal Family will pay you 20,000 gold coins.The Diorens certainly want to keep it hidden..... "

The official of the royal family rolled up one sheet of the material and proclaimed loudly.

"It's obvious that the Ziolens have an unjust daughter!Here are some testimonies from House Drabe!

Apparently, the material is testimony from House Drub.Does that mean that you, Olivi, testified that Carnelia was the daughter of the Dioren family?I'm not Lian, but I'm not really busy... um, shouldn't I think about this...?

"As I mentioned earlier, I don't have a daughter.You want to dishonor me with just one testimony from a nobleman!I repeat, I don't have a daughter!I only have one son, Santos!

Dioren began to argue a little hysterically against a royal official.

"The royal family thought that the Phoenix owned by a girl named Carnelia might have been a property of the Dioren family and demanded an unreasonably high fine... well, isn't it?

Dioren shouts loudly as he increasingly stirs up the annoying air of the court.

"The royal family wants Phoenix and is trying to fabricate my unjust child!I bet you are!

"Watch your mouth! Blasphemy against the royal family!

"What!?Is there any blasphemy in the royal family that seeks to unjustly dispossess the nobles and the people?

The indoors are annoying.Anti-royalty people fly wild on the side of the Diorren family, and the royalty side swears at Diorren.

... this is...

"There is no justification whatsoever for expropriating the unrelated human Phoenix as property of the Dioren family!And the royal family and House Drabe, who have proclaimed the rumor that I have an unjust child, should apologize to us!

Mr. Ziolen began attacking people on the King's side and the House of Drabs.Somehow, whether Carnelia is related or not has become a better board.

"... awesome.The Dioren family. They're fighting the royal family. "

Fay whistles.It may be an imprudent behavior in court, but as long as I'm looking at the court now, where the curse flies with the wild, I don't think anyone can blame me this much.

"Well, if you come this far, it's not strange to think that it would be better to fight the royal family and rub against the nobles of the anti-royal family..."

Claire looks like, "It was unexpected, but it's not a bad hand for the Dioren family."I see. Is that what Dioren's behavior meant?

... but...

"... but I want to think that's not all."

Mm-hmm.

... Carnelia is staring at Dioren, holding her hand tightly.

It looks complicated.But it was filled with emotions big enough to scratch out all the complexity.

"Say it again and again!Dioren, there's no daughter at home!That girl..... "

After a slightly hysterical and a slightly runaway appeal, Dioren saw Carnelia.Carnelia staring at Jiolen, really just for a moment...

"... a girl who has nothing to do with me and has nothing to do with it."

"Just as I am not obliged to pay an unjust fine, so shall the girl not be unjustly deprived of her property."

I never saw Carnelia again.Dioren just looked straight at the presiding judge and said so.

... and then it appeared that Jiolen's son had prepared a family tree of the Jiolen family as evidence, that there was no trace of his daughter even when he searched the Jiolen family house, that on the contrary, a Royal Official came back to give the testimony of the Drabe family, and that he gave the current information about Carnelia, and so on...

"... I knew it, but this is a grand tour."

"Anyway, it's just a water theory.Carnelia is not in the bloodline, and even your mother's grave marker is not in the Dioren domain.There's no evidence. "

Of course, it is difficult to prove that there is no evidence.The demon proof?The teacher taught me something.

But on the contrary, it's probably harder to bring evidence that you don't have.I don't think there are any DNA tests in this world.

... so the Dioren family's claim and the Royal side's claim were brilliantly and magnificently watertight.

"Because Carnelia is not related, Phoenix is not the property of the Dioren family.Therefore, the claim that "20,000 gold coins are too many" and the claim that "Carnelia seems to be related, so let Phoenix seize" cannot be settled forever.

"Is this trial over...?

"Well, if there's not enough evidence, I think it's hard to insist on Carnelia being my daughter...."

... worried, we've been watching the two arguments forever.

Kyu.

I thought I heard a small scream, but Lian's voice came out.

"Ugh, wow, why did you come out?"

Lean whispers and hangs the undressed jacket on the lid.Although it's not very conspicuous because it's compact and round and comes out under the chair...

"Oh, hey. What are you doing?"

"Heh? Ah, heh, heh.No way! "

Then she stretched out her neck and pulled the hem of Carnelia's skirt.Carnelia bent down in a hurry to restrain the hem of the skirt.

... at that time.

"Ah."

Carnelia's chest was glowing with a jewel of pendant.

The jewels are crushing.

Fragments of the shattered gems burned and vanished in front of us bewildered.

"... eh"

Carnelia turned pale and checked her pendant.

The pendant has only a few gem shards that are about a third the size of a crack.However, the gem shards also raise the flame and fall to the floor.

... the gem containing the Phoenix has disappeared.

"... ahh!

Carnelia screams in detail.I've seen what's going on around me, but it's not that far.

"Well, what should I do? Where did you go?My, my.... "

With tears in his eyes, he desperately searched for pendants and burning jewels that fell on the floor.But there's no Phoenix anywhere.

... but...

"Ah, um, Carnelia...."

I can see it.

Um... gem shards that are still burning there.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, but...

... ah.

... after that, the trial progressed, repeated the grand tour several times, and the water was running out.

"... ask the witness"

The tired presiding judge turned to Carnelia.

"What's your name?

Carnelia burst into tears for a moment.However, when Lian gently gripped his hand, he stood up on the spot and replied magnificently, as if he had been braved by it.

"Carnelia. Carnelia Celeste."

... Carnelia replied, scrambling around.I've never heard of Celeste.Ah, Lian is illuminated...

Really? Now let me ask Carnelia Celeste a question.You are. "

She's not my daughter.

And Carnelia answered with dignity.

"I'm not that person's daughter.I'm not the daughter of the Dioren family. "

Carnelia stood still and looked at Giolen.It seems that Dioren is intentionally trying not to look at Carnelia, and is just staring at the presiding judge.

... but Carnelia smiled a little bit at Ziolen.

"So don't seize my Phoenix.Besides, I'm sure it's not worth it. "

"What, it's not worth it!?Phoenix is a precious beast!It was said to be extinct, a very precious creature with healing powers... do you know its value!?

"Yes! I know the value of this child!Cute and fluffy!And it's warm!But if it's cute, fluffy, and other kids, I think there's plenty more!

Carnelia says that to a royal official with dignity.Besides, the royal officials seemed very angry...

"See... this is my Phoenix!Sure is cute, but I wonder if this kid is really gonna get 20,000 gold coins!

Carnelia picked up "it" and put it up so that everyone in the room could see it.As soon as that happened, the official of the royal family suddenly lost his strength.

"No matter where she looks, she's a big chick!I bet you're not such a great creature!

Pie.

Phoenix, who was completely back in Chiyoko, was satisfied in Carnelia's arms.

... yeah.

Speaking of which, Phoenix was an immortal bird...
