”noble Litr will be stripped of all of his assets in the co days He will assist the Home Guards to dismantle his entire wealth and help unveil any hidden operations that have been going on away fro Rex announced the verdict, yet he could literally hear the crowd outside
Apparently, the public wasn't satisfied with such scu off easy, and demanded more justice
”Don't you think you're relieved a bit early, Litr? I have yet to bang my hammer ” Rex smirked as he drank from a cup of water to quench his thirst
”Because of all the atrocious criainst all these poor children, I hereby also sentence you to life imprisonment in Paradiso as soon as it is rebuilt For the moment, you will be kept in the maximum cell security prison under the Central Police Station We've prepared a cell for you which cannot be unlocked unless I personally come over to fetch you” Rex added
”All of your statuses is hereby erased, and your entire household will be placed under arrest until investigations have cleared their nauilty until proven innocent All of their assets would also be freezed There is no way out for you no matter how you see it You are not allowed to appeal nor request for bail The sentence I give would be absolute”
”Lastly, you will be receiving five strokes of the cane on a daily basis and be kept alive for eternity Don't you worry I won't let you die that easily We will butter your ass up with lots of entle smile, but it spoke volumes of terror which Litr could not comprehend at that moment
Litr stared at the absurdity of the sentence, and tears started to leak out of his eyes pleading for leniency ”Please e! I have adiven you the nahter sentence for my cooperation?”

”Now, you've wasted enough of et the next official or noble to the podiuhted to co's commands
As the next official came, it was ironically Minister Phaspho who had assured Litr that this was just a show of power ”Ah… Minister Phaspho, I heard much about you too You've witnessed how I shall conduct these trials, so let's proceed quickly, shall we? We have wasted too rin at that moment wasn't any less evil than Kraft's, and the foxes could never iine how happy Kraft hen Rex enforced such cruel justice
Phaspho was under the i the book of 'truth' would cause him to spill out his secrets, and with defiance, he tried to avoid it asthe 'book of truth' did not change anything as long as Evon was there All Evon had to do was to increase the dosage or activate his chi for it to spill his entire life's story
