Chapter 719


    All the cameras were pointed at James.


    He was filthy and unwashed all over.


    “I do,” James said in a feeble voice. Although the witnesses had exaggerated, it was undeniable that he


    killed them.


    “Good.” The Emperor stood up and cried out, “Since you plead guilty, what do you think your


    punishment will be in ordance with criminalw?”


    “Execution.”


    James looked the Emperor in the eye. His eyes were devoid of fear.


    Although he was enfeebled, his stare was as menacing as always.


    The Emperor was diposed. Feeling as if he was being targeted by a ferocious beast, he


    unconsciously took a few steps back. Immediately, however, he put on his facade. The panic which


    was written on his face disappeared. Scanning his surroundings, he announced, “James should be


    executed for his crimes in ordance with thew. Members of the jury, please discuss amongst


    yourselves.”


    Hearing this, they exchanged their opinions in whispers.


    Outside the courthouse...


    A convoy stopped in front of the courthouse‘s gates. The door opened, and a general in a ck robe


    with a one–star badge on his shoulder walked out.


    Around thirty years of age, his skin was tanned, and his expression was grim.


    In his hands was the de of Justice. It was a sword passed down thousands of years ago.


    Since antiquity, it represented the highest authority of the state. It gave the wielder the right to kill tyrant


    kings and treacherous courtiers.


    The sword was preserved with the establishment of Sol.


    Ever since then, it had been wielded by themander–in–chief of the ck Dragon army.


    “Halt.”


    Henry was immediately stopped by the Red me army. Holding the de of Justice high, Henry


    yelled, “This is the de of Justice of Sol! Who dares stand in my way?”


    “The de of Justice?”


    Hearing this, terror overtook their faces.


    “Move!”


    ring at the Red me army standing in his way, Henry yelled, “Today, the de of Justice will be


    used to rid Sol of its treacherous subjects!!


    The Red me army looked at one another. Then, they allowed Henry passage.


    Henry proceeded to enter the courthouse.


    The judges were in a lieated discussion. In the end, they arrived at a verdict.


    The Emperor stood and faced the reporters. “After discussion, the judges have determined that James


    will be executed for his crimes. His execution will be...”


    “Wait...!”


    A voice came.


    Everyone turned their heads. A one-star general walked in with a sword in his hands.


    It was Henry.


    Henry stood before the crowd and faced the cameras. “This is the de of Justice. It represents the


    highest authority ofw and has always been wielded by themander–in chief of the ck Dragon


    army. With this sword, James had purged Sol of its treacherous subjects.”

    Hearing this, the crowd was stunned. Though they had heard rumors about the sword, they had never


    seen the real thing. “Is that true?”


    “Is there really a sword in Sol that is above thew?”
