Chapter 101 (2/2)

I expected to see Olfred since he was the one that had brought me to the cell, but instead, I had the unfortunate pleasure of waking up to Bairon’s happy face; and by happy, I meant a scowl of impatience laced with a hatred for my very existence basically written on his face I don’t blaer brother, but I sensed, for some reason, that his death wasn’t the only reason for his blatant ani,” Bairon spoke sharply, opening the gate The lance grabbed edthe sealing artifact back onto you as well I see you’re notto keeph his cold glare spoke volumes As we made our way towards the exit, I noticed that the cell Director Goodsky had been held in was open

We arrived in front of a different rooh enough to ad from the other side

“You don’t knoforward to the trial,” Bairon said, his jaws tensing, while his grip on hter

“Don’t worry, I’ll be sure to treat your family with the same sentiments you showedupwards in a sh to reveal his sharp canine

You are reading on ReadReadNovelFullonlinecoht, Ithey were safely hidden and that for now the Council needed me alive and intact, his empty threats didn’t ht with a thirteen-year-old?” I shooklifted round and suddenly, I was face to face with Bairon “I don’t think you understand what’s about to happen to you right now You’re going to either end up dead or wishi+ng you had died while your pet is going to becos You think this only affects you? I’ll make sure your family and anyone you even remotely cared about faces a round

“Yes yes, the great Lance Bairon is going to take vengeance for his lunatic younger brother, who chose to go to the dark side and kill innocent students, by tor his fa surprised, but I suspected ht hand ball up into a fist, but he just clicked his tongue in disgust, tossingtowards the tall double doors Dusting myself off as best as I could withave Bairon a wink

<hr>

Either Bairon didn’t see or he chose to ignore , I heard faint sounds co with Sylvia’s dragon will,my senses and reflexes It wasn’t to the point where I would be able to last a fewwas strong enough to vaguely make out some familiar voices inside the protected room

“perpetrator of…”

“refusal to answer…”

It see for who I could safely assume to be Director Goodsky

“ sentenced to public execution”

The last state voice

After a ainst suddenly swung inithout a creak, causingup frouard, who had ad, regarding us without any euard said, shi+fting his gaze fro myself up, I was able to lock eyes with the former director of Xyrus Acadeuards

Her gaze was firer as she passeded towards the Council, I studied each of their faces

Sitting down on the single chair, wordlessly, I waited for them to start Bairon appeared behind Blaine Glayder and as the double doors shut with a loud thud, the roo was the first to speak, his eyes glued to the stack of papers he had begun shuffling through

“Boy, let it be known that the Council is ainst a fellow schoolmate would normally result in at least the incapacitation of your reed that since your actions were for the sake of the greater good, your sentencing will instead be as followed: Arthur Leywin is to be stripped of his previous title as a e all and the benefits that come with He is also to be irandiose ht of himself as benevolent

There was a brief silence; I suspected the Dwarf King aiting for ratitude and other forain

“Is there anything you would like to say?” he questioned

“Just a few questionsYour Majesty While h, what do you mean by imprisoned until ‘further notice’?” I tilted my head

“Upon the next feeeks, we’ll bewith the victih time has passed and the memories of your actions have more or less dissipated from the public’s minds, ill release you Think of it as a sort of provisional detain up a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes

“I see Fair enough, I suppose What of my bond?” I asked As soon as I was released fro with Sylvie, only to bekind enough to let you live, yet you ask forher thick pal your bond is another issue, Arthur Part of the sentencing where you lose your rights as a er be able to keep your bond” Alduin had been the one to tell me this Had it been anyone else, I would’ve reacted differently, but reading the subtle s in his intonations and words, I kneas only trying to keep me from trouble

As our eyes stayed locked for a few more seconds, I forced a stiff nod

“I understand, Your Majesties”

“Good Bairon, take him back to his cell but keep him chained up,” Blaine waved us away I studied the expressions of everyone there one last time While Blaine’s face was more self-assured than yesterday’s trial, his wife still looked pale with guilt The dwarves were both haughtily arrogant,me more certain that they were the ones most involved with the Vritra while the Alduin and Merial both wore stoic expressions as masks

I could tell Bairon was furious but he stayed silent throughout the trip back to onize him in his current state so I remained mute as well

I had expected to be taken to the saht down to a different holding place With an actual bed and toilet, I would’ve mistaken it for a roo

After tossing th than necessary, the lance left wordlessly My arether in front ofmy abilities

I couldn’t tell how ht or day since there weren’t any s, but as I sat there patiently, the sound of soft footsteps approached

“It seehed

My lips curled upwards as I gazed upon a strikingly familiar face

“About damn time, Windsom”
