A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

Chapter 1349

A person who has been convicted and sentenced but refuses to plead guilty can request a retrial up to a maximum of two times.

The adjudicator could not refuse the request.

This is similar to the actual court procedure.

"Come on, do it again!!"

Xuanhao, who understood the technique of Hikari Kuanjian, said unhappily.

"Xuan Hao is suspected of killing a large number of civilians in Shibuya on October 2018, 10." The judge recounted Xuan Hao's crime.

"Yes, I killed him."

Xuan Hao was slightly stunned when he heard this, but he quickly calmed down and admitted it in a calm tone.

"I'm not going to lie about it or deny it."

Hearing Xuanhao's answer, Riche Kuanjian was slightly stunned and seemed a little surprised.

Because he could tell from Xuanhao's expression and eyes that this matter was not that simple.

"guilty."

"Confiscated!"

"death penalty!"

The judge pronounced angrily.

···········
At that time, Che Kuanjian was still a judicial trainee.

"Japanese car."

"Mr. Yoshizawa... As for the draft, I have already submitted it..." Hikari Hiromi said to the old man who called him.

"Oh, that's not it." The old man shook his head and smiled. "I've read the document. It's very well written. It can be used directly as a judgment. Have you ever considered becoming a judge?"

This was the beginning of Hiromi Nissha's journey to becoming a lawyer.

···········
"The Executioner's Sword!!"

As the judge sentenced him to death, the wooden hammer in Hikari Hiromi's hand turned into a dazzling lightsaber.

The heaviest sentence imposed by the judge is the death penalty with confiscation of property.

'Confiscation' will make the target unable to use magic, in Xuanhao's case it is cursed energy.

Higurashi Hiromi will get the "Executioner's Sword".

Without exception, all those killed by the 'Executioner's Sword' died.

At this moment, Riche Kuanjian was holding the executioner's hand as if he was holding Xuanhao's life and death.

He looked at Xuanhao seriously, his tone filled with anger.

"If you want to get close to a person's heart, you have to understand his weakness. The weakness of the victim, the weakness of the perpetrator. Every day, every day, every day, it's exhausting."

“Afterwards, whenever I got close to other people, I felt ugly.”

"Same to you...Xuan Hao!!"

"Everyone in this world!! Is weak and ugly!! No matter how much you hope to meet a noble soul, it's all in vain! The darkness before you! Is just darkness!! Even if you light a lamp!! You will only find that dizzying nothingness is spreading!!"

As he said that, he rushed towards Xuan Hao with a sharp blade in his hand.

However, the next moment, Xuan Hao overturned the chairs in the theater, and disappeared from his sight under the cover of these chairs.

"Disappeared!?"

But Hikari Kuanjian reacted quickly.

Waiting calmly for Xuanhao to show up.

In a trance, he saw a chair covered with Xuanhao's clothes, and his attention was distracted.

Xuan Hao himself took advantage of this opportunity to go behind him and prepare to launch an attack.

"!" Higurashi Hiromi was not fooled by the illusion for too long and soon caught the figure attacking from behind.

He swung the sharp blade, while Xuan Hao on the opposite side also swung his fist.

It's unclear whose attack will hit first.

···········
"I'm terribly sorry, but I'm not going to be a judge."

This is how Hiromi Higuru answered Mr. Yoshizawa at that time.

"Really? Then can you tell me the reason?" Mr. Yoshizawa asked.

Humans are weak and ugly.

Of course, Hikari Kuanjian did not answer like this: "...I am not ambitious and am not suitable to be a judge."

···········
"But at that time, at least until then, that stain that belongs only to humans is worthy of respect in my heart."

"Why, Xuanhao... why do you want to plead guilty...!!"

Riche was filled with anger and doubt.

"The evidence submitted by the judge was shared with the magician himself before it was opened."

"That evidence is exactly the information about the devil lurking inside you, Sukuna!!"

"You didn't kill anyone!!"

“But why!!”

"Why!!"

Thinking of this, the sword of executioner that Hiyori Hiromi was about to swing disappeared.

He waived the execution.

Because this goes against his original intention of becoming a lawyer.

Punishing the innocent was not the justice he was after.

boom--

As the Executioner's Sword disappeared, Xuan Hao's fist of course hit Hikari Hiromi without mercy.

Hisha Kuanjian was knocked flying by the punch and fell into a pile of chairs in the theater.

"Cough cough..."

"Hello!?"

Xuan Hao was a little confused as to why he suddenly stopped.

"Article 39, Item of the Penal Code..." Higurashi murmured, panting, "The ability to recognize and the ability to control oneself. If one of them is missing, you will be considered to be in a state of mental insanity. In Shibuya, your body was controlled by Sukuna."

"How do you know Sukuna?" Xuan Hao was a little confused when he heard this.

But Hikari Hiromi did not answer, but continued to mutter: "It means that you had no self-control at the time. And you did not voluntarily give up your self-control. Therefore, not guilty. You are not guilty."

"...But those people did die because of me." Xuan Hao lowered his head and said, "Because I was too weak."

"..."

Higurashi was silent for a while, then he sighed and said, "I see."

"Damn it...why did you cancel the spell just now?" Xuan Hao asked.

"Because I found my original intention." Hikari Kuanjian slowly stood up and responded. "Xuanhao, there may be many people in this world who have weaknesses like you."

"?" Xuan Hao had absolutely no idea what this guy was saying.

Hiromi Nichiba gave no explanation.

Just picked up a chair.

"Put on your clothes and sit down. I'll give you 100 points."

··········
Soon, the two sat opposite each other and began a conversation.

"Xuan Hao."

"Ok?"

"Have you ever killed someone of your own accord?"

"……Have."

“…Really? Doesn’t it feel terrible?” asked Hiromi Hiromi.

"……"Next, after understanding Xuanhao's request, Hikari Kuanjian summoned out some manager Xiao Jin.

"Xiao Jin, I want to add some rules."

"Points can be transferred between players, and of course this is also counted as 'changes' in Article 8 of the General Rules."

"..." Xuanhao looked at Xiaojin's reaction nervously, fearing that such a rule would not be allowed to be added.

"Additional approval granted."

Fortunately, Xiao Jin's answer made him feel relieved.

"General Rule 10. Players can transfer any points to other players."

"Huh~" Xuan Hao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the rules were added smoothly.

This way, there is no need to kill people to ensure that the technique will not be taken away.

"Xiao Jin, give my 1 point to Xuan Hao." Just after adding the rules, Hiromi Hiromi tried to transfer the points.

"Okay." Xiao Jin responded.

"!"

Xuanhao waited eagerly for the score transfer to be successful.

"I got one point from Hikari Kuanjian." As expected, his Xiao Jin soon began to announce, "In this way, neither of you will recite the Deprivation Spell for 19 days."

Seeing that the rules were being executed smoothly, Hikari Kuanjian slowly stood up and left: "Take care."

"!!"

Xuanhao looked at Riche Kuanjian's departing back and asked in confusion, "Riche!! What are your plans for the future? If you don't mind, can you come and help us?"

"...The two points I have left were earned by killing the judge and the prosecutor before coming to Tokyo." Hikari Hiromi responded calmly, "I will probably turn myself in after the barrier is opened. Before that, I will think carefully about what I should do. Besides, if I stay with you, I'm afraid I will hate myself more and more. Sorry... I don't mean to blame you. See you later."

As he finished speaking, Hikari Kuanjian closed the door of the theater, leaving Xuanhao alone.

···········
clap clap-

Applause echoed in the corridor.

"Not bad, not bad. Pass."

Looking at the jade dog summoned by Fushiguro Megumi, the man opposite laughed and applauded.

"Hmm?" Fushiguro Megumi was a little confused by this action, because it seemed that the other party didn't want to take action.

"You can see it. I know it very well. Your Shikigami is very powerful." The man said with a smile, "You are very strong, right? After all, if you were a weakling, you would become our fat sheep and be killed. You are very good, so become our partner."

"?"

The woman behind Fushiguro Megumi was also confused by the man's sudden words.

"What do you mean? I've never heard him say that before."

"What do you want to do?" asked Fushiguro Megumi with a cold face.

"How much do you know about death and return?" the man asked with a chuckle.

"It's a ritual," Fushiguro Megumi said calmly. "The purpose is to use the cursed power of the players within the barrier to teleport the humans in Japan to the other side and turn them into non-human beings."

"!" Hearing Fushiguro Megumi's answer, the man was slightly surprised and asked curiously, "Why? Do you know Kinsou?"

"!!"

Fushiguro Megumi was slightly startled when she heard the man mention this name, "I knew there would be a magician related to the silk rope...!!"

"What you just said about using the player's magical power is probably a lie." The man laughed and said, "No, rather than saying it's a lie..."

"What?" asked Fushiguro Megumi.

The man replied, "I think there is a second or even third purpose. It is based on three factors: the number of players, the difference in strength between the players, and the law of the barrier."

"Assuming that approximately 1000 players are evenly distributed to 10 barriers, there will be 100 people in each barrier. And among the players... there are powerful sorcerers like Lu Ziyun and Riku. The two of them alone have eliminated 60 sorcerers. There should be at least one such person in each barrier."

"In the initial stage, only the strong ones are left..." Fushiguro Megumi also seemed to sense something was wrong. "Indeed, I also felt that the barrier was too quiet...!! Then will the death and return journey enter a stalemate?"

"It already is..." the man said as a matter of course, "At least that's the case in this Tokyo Second Barrier."

"In addition, there is also 'teleportation' when invading the barrier. Dispersing people is also one of the purposes, but the more important purpose should be to promote the early secondary awakening of modern magicians."

"We should try to get more magicians to fight more frequently and for a longer period of time."

"The premise of 'long-term operation' in the general principles is actually just a disguise for the real plan."

"I am sure of that."

"When only the strong ones are left in the Huiyou, Sukuna will drop the 'bomb'. Then the mission of destroying the Huiyou will be completed."

"We don't know what the bomb is and it's not going to happen in the near future, or even right now."

"So we have to plan ahead, gather powerful partners, and accumulate points." The man explained.

"...I have a few questions to ask." Fushiguro Megumi asked, "First of all, I don't think this person is that strong."

As he said this, he pointed to the woman behind him.

If only the strong can cooperate with them, then this woman is too weak.

"She is responsible for making up reasons to lure the magician here as bait." The man responded with a faint smile.

"Women make people let down their guard."

"And after you've used her, you can just kill her and turn her into points," Fushiguro Megumi added jokingly.

"What are you talking about~" The man shook his head slightly, "How is that possible?"

"Mr. Lingshi is my true knight," the woman said. "As long as I work hard to complete my mission, he will protect me."

"You are such a fool."

Seeing this man with big breasts and no brains, Fushiguro Megumi sighed shamelessly.

Then, he ignored it and asked Ling Shi: "Do you two and the other so-called companions have 00 points together?"

"Well..."

··········
"sit down."

In front of the circular conference table, the senior executives spoke indifferently to Sukuna who had come here.

"Thank you for inviting me." Lingshi spread his hands and indicated helplessly that he had not.

"There will be additional rules in the near future, and players can transfer points before that." Fushiguro Megumi stroked the jade dog that was ready to go, and threatened lightly, "Call out all your points. If you do as I say, I can consider becoming your partner."

"Negotiations break down~"

Lingshi's tone was somewhat helpless.

pop-

He clapped softly.

call--

The next moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the corner of the corridor not far behind Fushiguro Megumi.

The man was agile and his fingers were like sharp claws as he attacked Fushiguro Megumi.

"Disappeared!?"

However, the man's grab missed.

Megumi Fushiguro's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

"!?"

The next moment, the person suddenly felt that he was stepping on empty air.
