Chapter 101
Who would believe that this place is meant for interrogating someone? Looking at the atmosphere, it was clear that this wasn’t a location for lawmakers and bureaucrats to question an individual.
It was rather a space where vassals present petitions to the king. That was the only way to explain it.
“Ahem- I shall begin.” The lawmaker in charge cautiously looked down at the list of questions in front of him. The questions were bluntly about the current status of Evilus Corporation.
He hesitated to ask such questions to Regalia, who stood before him, but lawmakers are the kind of people who would sell the country for a measly benefit.
“There are claims that Evilus Corporation is using illegal means to… exploit unjust profits from numerous cities.”
No sooner had the lawmaker finished speaking than the nearby superhumans activated their powers. An ability that makes lying impossible. An ability that compels further questioning in response to an answer. These were superhumans that could be lethal in a hearing.

“That has never happened.”
