Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

"You jest, old priest."

The judge smiled obsequiously, "Your granddaughter is naturally exceptionally intelligent, but capturing the Asura was truly your achievement. Your strength is truly worthy of a priest..."

"Stop, don't try to get close to me."

Old Bao didn't even lift his eyelids: "I remember you said before that I had already stepped down and shouldn't interfere in Xu Fang's affairs?"

"How could we dare say that?"

The judge broke out in a cold sweat.

That old man is a real scoundrel! I clearly told him to go back to his country to retire and rest, but he actually exaggerated it to my face!

"In short, I captured Shura. As for whether I am a priest of the Holy Judgment Court or a hunter of the Azure Sky Hunting Grounds, we'll talk about that later."

"you···"

Old Bao ignored him and swaggered away with Shura in his arms. The judge had no choice but to report to his superiors.

······

Xu Fang changed into a clean shirt and even tidied his blond hair.

"Let's go," said Zu Xiangtian, who was guarding the entrance to the courtyard.

Xu Fang casually tore the unfinished bread into small pieces and threw them all into the pond in the courtyard.

"You even keep fish?" Zu Xiangtian hadn't been here for a few days. Looking at the pond that had appeared in the yard at some point and the fat, leisurely koi carp in it, his eyelids twitched violently.

"A person shouldn't be too idle," Xu Fang said with a smile.

The Holy Court wasn't far from this small courtyard; it was just a few minutes' walk away. Pushing open the door, all eyes turned to them.

Bathed in the gaze of so many powerful figures, Xu Fang felt no discomfort whatsoever. He smiled, nodded, and walked to the defendant's seat in the center.

Not bad, there's still one seat left.

Although it looks like it was just set up, at least it's there now, right?

"Let's begin." The high priest, the holy judge, looked around and felt a chill run down his spine as he saw the countless gazes fixed on him from all directions.

This is definitely not an easy job!

"Let's start by talking about Xu Fang killing Hecasa..."

"I have objections."

A clear, girlish voice rang out.

Just as the Holy Judge was about to shut up the girl who seemed to have snuck out of some middle school, his gaze fell on her [Hunter Master] identity badge.

"It wasn't Xu Fang who killed Hecasa, but Heiting Hongyi!"

Lingling said in a deep voice, "The red-clothed Asura used forbidden techniques to prevent Xu Fang from using light magic, and then detonated them at the last moment of the battle to create the illusion that Xu Fang had killed someone!"

"impossible!"

The elder of the Casa clan shouted, "What reason does Shura have to kill the young duke?"

"First, Black Court acts erratically and ruthlessly; killing without any grudge is perfectly natural for them. Second, Black Court wants to kill Xu Fang; Hecasa is merely a tool."

"What did you say!?"

The elders of the Casa clan were furious.

Is his own little duke just a tool?

Hearing this was even harder to accept than hearing that Hecasa had died!

“Hecasa is merely a tool,” Lingling said in an absolutely rational voice. “Hecasa is not qualified to have the Red Robe take action; a super-rank executioner is sufficient.”

"Then Xu Fang is qualified?" the elder roared.

“In fact, more than one super-level assassin has already perished on the way to assassinate Xu Fang.” Lingling nodded toward the audience.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a stylishly dressed elderly woman stood up.

"I killed those people, and I used their bodies as fertilizer."

His tone was casual, as if killing a few high-level mages was nothing special.

"It's Senior Lü Yi!"

"She still has a connection with Xu Fang?"

"You just connected your office to the intranet? Who doesn't know that Senior Lü Yi is currently growing vegetables and raising dragons in Jinlin City?"

Lü Yi is the goddess of the older generation of Asian monks, and her appearance caused a stir at the scene.

"Even without Senior Lü Yi's protection, Xu Fang's combat power is among the best even among the super-class. Hecaza, who is of the same level, was beaten into a pulp, uh, beaten without any power to fight back."

Lingling said, "If Black Court wants to deal with him, ordinary assassination is simply not enough. In addition, I suspect that the mastermind behind this is not Shura, but Salang."

Salam!

The scene erupted in excitement once again.

If we were to create a ranking of the world's villains, even Pope Black Court wouldn't be confident that he could rank above this "brilliant" cardinal.

"What evidence do you have?" the judge asked sternly.

"Salang orchestrated the Ancient Capital Incident, but it was thwarted by Xu Fang."

Lingling said, "Among those who assassinated Xu Fang afterward, many confessed to the name Salang after soul searching. Including this incident, we originally planned to investigate further through Yan Qiu, a maid of the Casa clan, but instead we were hunted down."

The elder of the Casa clan turned green with anger and hurriedly said, "Yan Qiu is not a member of my Casa clan; she comes from the Rhine family!"

"Where is Yan Qiu?" asked the Holy Judge.

"He has disappeared and did not reappear until Shura was arrested."

Lingling said in a deep voice, "Everyone here should know about Shura. Although he is not very intelligent, he is cruel and suspicious. His subordinates have all established soul enslavement with him. If they are his subordinates, they would not be able to hide."

The reasons are actually quite sufficient.

As the priest on duty today, the Holy Judge actually has considerable discretionary power.

Normally, he would simply declare Xu Fang innocent, as a gesture of respect to so many powerful figures.

However, among Xu Fang's crimes, killing Hecasa is the least serious.

Most importantly, there is the "calamity," which has been absolutely forbidden since the founding of the Holy City!

Looking at Xu Fang's blond hair and then thinking about his standard Chinese bloodline within three generations, the Holy Judge had a headache.

"I'll say something."

A military mage carrying the rank of staff officer said, "Xu Fang is the pride of our Chinese military mages. He has slain countless demons and protected countless civilians. His light magic is controllable and will not cause any damage to the existing magical order."

The Holy Judge said, "If it's just empty talk..."

"Of course there is evidence."

The staff officer said, "There are two thousand people in total, from the ancient capital, Xinjiang, Jinlin, the South China Sea, as well as Japan, South Korea, Egypt, and Africa. They are currently at the foot of the Alps."

Chapter 564 Xu Fang, Released in Court

The witness panel was brought by Jiang Shaoxu.

Since Xu Fang was taken to the Holy Tribunal, Jiang Shaoxu quickly assessed the situation and rushed back to Asia to assemble this large group of witnesses.

Things went even more smoothly than she had expected.

After learning the truth, countless people rushed to the Holy City to testify, and these two thousand people were carefully selected representatives.

The plane was too slow, so Zhan Kong and Zhang Xiaohou piloted the Flying Dragon Squadron across Asia to deliver it.

"I'm just a fisherman. Once, I encountered demons at sea..."

"Have you ever seen such a huge demon? With one sword strike, General Xu cleaved it in two!"

“I’m from Bocheng. Back then, Xu Fang was just a senior high school student, but he led the military mages to open up a safe zone for us.”

"Those damned warlords only know how to fight for territory. If it weren't for Xu, I would have died on the way to escape and been eaten by hyenas long ago!"

"I...I used to be a spirited young man. Xu Fang saved me from the one-eyed demon wolf..."

"You want to put Xu Fang on trial? You idiot! Haven't you read 'The Island of Demons'? In that absurd, dark world, Xu Fang is the only ray of light, and now you're telling me you want to destroy it?"

The witness was very excited and surrounded the holy city monks who came to inquire.

Xu Fang is not a villain!

Xu Fang is an upright and kind hero!

The Holy City mages were in a flurry of activity; normally, they wouldn't have taken these ants who couldn't use magic seriously.

But not now, there are so many eyes watching!

They had to force out a friendly smile like Chinese soldiers and bend down to patiently communicate with these people.

"It seems the facts are already clear."

Upon receiving the witness reports compiled by his subordinates, the Holy Judge said:

"Xu Fang's evil deeds in the duel with Hecasa are not established. As for whether it is related to the Black Court, we still need to conduct a soul search interrogation on the captured Shura."

After a pause, the Holy Judge deliberately looked at Old Man Bao.

Old Bao nodded slowly.

The Holy Judge breathed a sigh of relief, his tone becoming much lighter: "Given the above reasons, Xu Fang has been temporarily ruled to have violated the rules by using forbidden magic. In accordance with custom, he will be transferred to the Asian Magic Association for further review and will not be allowed to leave the country for six months!"

Handing it over to the Asian Magic Association?

The elders of the Casa clan were about to jump up in excitement.

Who doesn't know that Shao Zheng from China is going to be elected Speaker of the Asian Parliament? What's the difference between that and being acquitted?!

"We don't..."

What was the jury's opinion?

The jury's vote was also in, overwhelmingly finding Xu Fang not guilty.

Snapped!
