The Witch Trial Begins with the OO Buckethead Zombie

"Yes, Ms. Tachibana Sherry has confessed to her crime without reservation. The deduction is accurate. A small deduction will be made." The owl didn't care what Hannah Tono thought; it just reported the facts.

Confirm the situation, and then continue reporting the crime.

"Then, Noah Kinosaki used strong-smelling spray paint to paint in the prison cell, the mansion, and many other outdoor places, polluting the environment. He should have lost a lot of points. However, considering that he later used magic to clean up the traces, leaving only an unpleasant smell that affected others, he lost a little points."

After Shirley Tachibana confessed, her crime seemed to be easily overlooked, and the owl didn't even put up a big screen to calculate and sort the deductions in real time.

The deductions were vague and unclear, and the calculations were completely arbitrary.

Hoshino Utsunomiya was once again certain.

The point deduction is just a very casual excuse.

"Huh? Does Noah have to lose points too?" Noah, who still seemed sleepy after being called out, raised his head: "But Noah cleaned everything up, so we can't deduct points from Noah."

If points are deducted, they won't be allowed to draw anymore.

She couldn't accept this.

“Just because it’s clean doesn’t mean it hasn’t affected anyone else, Miss Noah.” The owl paced back and forth on the guard’s narrow shoulders. “Such an explanation will not be accepted.”

It seems to really want to move to another place.

“Noah didn’t affect anyone else.” Noah’s cheeks puffed out slightly.

"It has an impact."

"It has no impact."

"The Great Witch said you had an impact."

Noah said Noah had no effect.

The very low-level argument seems poised to continue indefinitely.

"Who was affected?" Hoshino Utsunomiya sighed and asked, "I wasn't affected."

Having understood what Utsunomiya Hoshino meant, Nikaido Hiro also raised his hand: "It didn't affect me."

“It didn’t affect me either,” Emma Sakuraba added.

Sherry Tachibana: "+1".

Tono Hannah hesitated for a moment: "Me too, it won't affect me."

If the goal is to protect Tachibana Sherry, then she should actually find a way to ensure that Noah Kinosaki's penalty is enforced.

After all, the warden had previously stated that the witch with the most demerit points would be executed.

Besides reducing your own demerit points, increasing the demerit points of others is also a means of self-protection.

It's just a bit awful.

So in the end, she didn't try to kick someone when they were down.

Just as the group was expressing their opinions, seemingly intending to deny the charge,

"..."

The smell is unpleasant.

Natsume Anan flipped through the sketchbook.

"So, as I said, some people have been affected." The owl looked quite helpless: "The evidence is conclusive, and I won't accept any rebuttals."

"..."

Noah Kinosaki fell silent.

After a long while, she finally raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes, and looked at Utsunomiya Hoshino: "Points deducted."

"Will Noah be unable to paint anymore?"

She asked that question.

"Noah, Noah is going to turn into a witch."

She said this.

It's a very frustrating problem, and a very powerless resistance.

It's like a child who, after having their favorite toy confiscated, sincerely raises their hand to the adult and shoots out an Ultraman beam.

I'm going to become a witch, so you can't stop me from drawing.

"You can still draw, as long as Noah isn't the one who loses the most points or does the most bad things, it's okay," Hoshino Utsunomiya said softly, trying to reassure him.

Noah Kinosaki will definitely not be the one who loses the most points.

Because the person who received the most demerit points was clearly someone else.

"Ms. Noah Kinosaki has no way to refute this, the evidence is conclusive, deduct a small point."

The warden ignored their conversation and continued his report:

"Hanna Tono... No penalty record."

The owl seemed somewhat surprised that among the seven, there was actually a good child with no demerit points who had been recognized by the Great Witch.

"Ms. Tono Hanna is such a good girl."

After making a casual remark, it skipped over Tono Hannah and prepared to announce the next sinner.

The owl paused for a moment, glanced at Hoshino Utsunomiya, and then spoke casually:

"Sakura Emma and Utsunomiya Hoshino have impure romantic relationships, so this is a big deduction."

Beneath those brief words lay the first major deduction in the trial at this moment.

And the charges.

It refers to 'impure heterosexual relationships'.

The entire courtroom fell silent.

Sherry Tachibana glanced at Hoshino Utsunomiya and Emma Sakuraba, then at Hiro Nikaido.

The girl's eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved.

Emma and Hoshino were judged to have an "impure heterosexual relationship," so why was Hiro, who was also a trainee girlfriend, left out?

This is really a very interesting thing.

Is the witch Hero?

So far, all three demerit points have been witnessed by Herro.

Do you object?

However, the warden didn't care what they were thinking.

It simply urged calmly.

Therefore, Tachibana Sherry couldn't help but turn her gaze to Sakura Emma.

Hmph, Miss Emma, ​​how are you going to refute that?

"—That's not true." Emma Sakura took a step forward, resting her waist against the witness stand in front of her. She looked at the owl and spoke softly.

"Our relationship is purely platonic."

she says.

Chapter 127 I didn't date Hero today.

Heh heh, I see. Is this the move you're going to use?

Instead of refuting relationships that people wouldn't want to refute in the first place, focus your rebuttal on whether the relationship is pure or not.

Since you said that impure heterosexual relationships will result in points being deducted, then as long as I can prove that my relationship with Hoshino is purely heterosexual, that will be fine.

but......

Sakura Emma, ​​the standards for deducting points are all in the hands of the witch. No matter how you try to prove that your feelings for him are pure, the witch will always have reasons to refute your explanations.

"..." After a pause, the owl pressed on, "How do you mean 'pure'?"

Explaining something, but merely offering one sentence doesn't constitute an explanation.

"Hold hands, hug, stick together," said Emma Sakura, leaving her seat and walking towards Hoshino Utsunomiya.

She grabbed Hoshino Utsunomiya's hand and hugged him tightly.

“That’s it,” she said.

Rather than demonstrating the purity of her relationship with Hoshino Utsunomiya, she was asserting her dominance.

Today is mine, today Hoshino is mine, even if you want to hold some kind of witch trial, Hoshino is still mine.

A slight, unusual friction sound came from an unknown direction.

It's a bit like grinding your teeth, and a bit like rubbing the ground repeatedly with your toes.

"Isn't it pure?" Although she wanted to keep hugging him, Emma Sakuraba let go of Hoshino Utsunomiya contentedly and turned to look at the owl.

"..."

The owl fell silent.

"Excuse me for asking, Miss Sakura Emma," it paused, then asked, "when did you two start dating?"

It is indeed a bit presumptuous, but considering its current adjudicative status, it is not so presumptuous.

They were quite polite.

just.

"Does this have anything to do with whether my relationship with Emma is platonic or not?" Hoshino Utsunomiya asked softly.

From the warden's words, it seems that he was unaware of how long he had been seeing Emma.

That would be very strange.

Logically speaking, if he was aware of his relationship with Emma, ​​he should also be aware of his simultaneous relationship with Heero, meaning he should know about the advice given by the "trainee lover" on Monday.

Sherry Tachibana and Hannah Tono were eavesdropping at the door at the time.

Sherry Tachibana is not a witch.
