"Why are you arresting me?" Enel, who has always stood above human beings, including some high-ranking nobles, never dreamed that such a day would come to her. As her emotions became uncontrollable, she cracked the stone tabletop with one palm and stood up suddenly.
"Please pay attention to your emotions. The more this happens at this time, the worse it will be for you." Sitting opposite her was her lawyer. She was not hired by her, but was assigned to her by legal procedures. He was experienced enough, but unreliable. But then again, in this kind of society, besides money, what else is reliable?
"I'm not guilty!" Enel clenched her hands, tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and sat down.
"But they said you were guilty. Everything was done according to legal procedures and it was very legal." Opposite him, he lowered his head and looked at the documents in his hand. There were a lot of words densely printed on several A4-faced white papers.
"What crime?" Whether out of curiosity or unwillingness, Enel wanted to know what kind of charges these humans had brought against her.
"The crime of massacre, the crime of concealing firearms, and the crime of treason are more serious. The rest are minor charges." The other party selected a few charges that caught his eye from the document and looked up at her calmly. "It seems that I don't need to waste any words. No matter which of these charges you are convicted of, your ending will be the same."
"..." Enel was silent for a while, then slowly unfolded her fisted hands, "What do you want me to do this time? Deal with the rebels in the south, the terrorist organization in the north, or the devil's minions!"
It had been like this every time before. If she didn't want to do it, then they would try their best to force her to take over. The methods were different, and those tasks were often difficult to complete. But this time, arrest was used, and there were so many death penalty charges. Could it be that she was asked to kill the Demon King directly?
"I don't understand what the lady is referring to." The other party shook his head. He really didn't know that today was the first time he met Enel, who was only famous in certain groups. There was no need for him to understand some of the unspoken rules surrounding this lady at this moment.
"What?" Enel stood up excitedly for the second time, and clenched her hands into fists again.
"Tomorrow is the final day of judgment. Please be mentally prepared, Miss. The result should not change much." The other party said and stood up, but he stood up to leave and leave this prison.
"I want to see Duke Stoker!" Enel knew that if there was still hope, it would be with him.
"I'm sorry, miss. Duke Stoker has asked me to come and see you this morning and tell you the seriousness of the punishment you have committed and the possible consequences. Now I have completed the task. See you tomorrow!" With that, he turned and walked towards the small door.
"I'm not guilty!" Enel, who had lost all hope, suddenly shouted at him, her face distorted with unwillingness and anger.
"Maybe!" The lawyer turned around and faced her, "Maybe sometimes, we just need such a result. As for the reason, I can only say that such a reason must exist. It may be as absurd as ladies needing new conversation topics, but it must be necessary for its existence. Goodbye!"
Watching the other party leave, the thick iron door closed again, and a loud "bang" shook Enel awake.
