“Lord! We, the deenerations after generations That day, after expending rassland But just as ere loosening the restraints on our darlings, the des and even tried to take away our possessions Look, she even said that she was a law enforcer [1] Where on earth do you find such a thief-like law enforcer?”

In front of nant demirams These short and dily talkative Right now, tears were flowing down their cheeks and their faces screareat injustice

“My Lord, you rievances! Our entire fortune has been stolen by these deht! My poor little Sia He was barely 2Yet, he was taken away from his mother by those demons How can this be allowed!?”

“When the wind blows fro, but that heartless wolf came to our house and…” [2]

I had seen athering in a group, crying and laot to see every day As expected of the artistic derievances

Initially, I was still rather touched, but after watching it for half a day, I realized that their standards were so-so and their lines were repetitive I lost an to announce uilty of oats under custody after paying their fines This is my final verdict The plaintiffs [3] are not to file any appeals”

“My Lord!!”

“This is unfair!!”

On the defendant [4] stand, Town Security Vice Captain Yawen heaved a sigh of relief The plaintiffs were still busy be to the heavens about the verdict, but I refused to budge from my stance

“Court Police, take them out Next”

“Corrupted officials are rae sides with the evil officials!!”

Sigh, it always ended up like this However, I felt slightly displeased at being called a foolish judge to the face

“Intentional slander towards the judge! I sentence you to a fine of 10 gold coins On a side note, the next tireenery, your cattle will be directly confiscated”

While they did have the rights to rear their cattle, they had used Sulfur Mountain City’s own greenery for ranching It was no longer a proble public property

Just within the past 6 ed grasslands and gardens, and this was just calculating the cost of the resources and manpower required for the operation On the other hand, what the derass feed

This ti had worked against themselves They actually tried to sue the Town Security forlaws—they surely ht, the one who said that I was a foolish judge just now, go to the community center and volunteer for 2 months of free labor Anyone who adds in anyrass patches to buy grass feed or ranch outside of the city If you were to continue ranching as you please, your entire tribe will be driven out of Sulfur Mountain City”

Towards the scheoats out for ranching was already an extre job for them

To make them work like the other races could be considered a harsh punishreedy them to do free volunteer work for others was definitely a harsher punishment than the death penalty

The et punished Instantly, the crying and singing stopped as they lined up orderly to leave the court

Thus, I nodded my head, satisfied

“Next!”

I looked at the case files for the next hearing, but as I stared at the s defendant, I couldn’t help but frown No wonder the other judges left this case to me It wasn’t an easy case to tackle at all

“Defendant, Beifeng [5] Herault, Dracon [6] Hunter Accused of kidnapping and inappropriate sexual actions”

The evidence on this felloas sufficient, and the man himself had confessed to the act, but this case still leftheadache

Hishad just co a druid as a pet However, after he succeeded, he committed obscene acts with his ‘pet’ in public on numerous occasions What’s rify into a bear, sometimes a panther, sole time they did it in hu was a ! This severely affects the social values and culture of the entire Sulfur Mountain City I strongly request subjecting this homosexual with a fetish for beasts to the death penalty under the reason of ‘correcting the social values of Sulfur Mountain City'” The goblin prosecutor [7] on the plaintiff seat spoke passionately This case had been brought up froe, and noas the critical period to push it through

“We must heed notice to the identity of the dracon defendant In their eyes, ‘being partners with beasts’ is a tradition and a natural thing to do Citizens of Sulfur Mountain City have long prided the towards the culture and traditions of other tribes The basic principle of our codex states that we can only punish those who have tread on the laws and in our codex, is the act of engaging in sexual activities ild beasts prohibited? Since it isn’t prohibited, then it isn’t a criuilty and evenout his interpretations towards the codex, the Elf Defense Attorney Krose [8] ain the upper hand, despite his looks of despise and disdain towards his defendant

In the eyes of the elves who respected nature, Hunter Beifeng’s behavior should have warranted his death a few thousand times, but in the court, he could not coains

Just as Krosethat his actions were a crime, the prosecutors were not even able to name out the exact name of his cri

“Which codex of laould outlaw such a disgusting crime like beastiality!! If this bastard turns out to be innocent, then how can we continue to uphold the dignity and fairness of the law!”
