Chapter 437 - 266 Judicial Court, Execution Privilege_2
However, it seems that there has been a change, and the Holy Dragon Emperor’s tolerance towards the fairies seems to have been exhausted by this group of insatiably greedy individuals.
A trial specifically aimed at fairies was held in the Central Square of Elisium City, with all judges and adjudicators being fairies themselves.
Although in the eyes of the citizens of Elisium City, this was just another grand play directed and performed by the fairies themselves, as the fairies have always been known to strike hard externally while being lenient internally within their own clan.
Yet even so, the Central Square was still crowded with onlookers, shoulder to shoulder, for regardless of their size, fairies are always pleasing to the eye, especially the Dragon Fairies presiding over the trial, who are the epitome of perfection.
The dragon-like features on the fairies, in Elisium City, where the pursuit of dragonification and the regard of dragons as beauty is the highest aesthetic standard.
"Erica, during your tenure, you abused your power, embezzled and solicited bribes... Do you plead guilty?"
The Great Fairy pressed down in the center of the square, felt the gazes cast upon her face from all around, only feeling her face flush with heat. She had no remorse, only a sense of humiliation.
Just a day ago, she was still the high and mighty Court Secretary of Moduo City, surrounded by nobles fawning over her, but now she had to kneel, accepting interrogation from a Dragon Fairy, subjected to the jeers of those peasants.
"I plead guilty."
Without the voice she had before capture, Erica weakly complied.
There was no use in arguing, as the Truth-telling Technique and Lie Detection Technique awaited her, arguing would only make her more embarrassed. It would be better to plead guilty early, end it soon, preserve some dignity, and at worst, just spend some time in Fairy Town, endure for a few decades, and once out, she could regain her authority.
