Shota’s Isekai NTR Adventure

General Gardner’s eyes immediately fell onto this group as soon as they came in.

As expected, he didn’t recognize a single person in that group.

No, there were two that he recognized.

It would be impossible for him to not recognize these two since they had been deeply ingrained in his memories as the ones that had captured him.

It was Duke Zwein and the fourth prince.

After this real jury came in, they sat where the fake jury had sat before and didn’t say a thing as if they were waiting for something.

The king gave a nod to them before saying, “Let the trial begin.”

General Gardner’s face twisted when he heard this.

From the very beginning, it seemed that he had been dancing in the palm of their hands as he made a fool of himself. He had thought that he would be able to easily get out of this, but now…

Since the fourth prince and Duke Zwein were on that jury, it should mean that there was something else that they were planning.

That was what he was worried about.

The defense attorney also knitted his brows, but he patted General Gardner’s hand and looked at him as if he was telling him to trust him. General Gardner gave a nod in response, but there was still a worried look in his eyes as he looked forward.

After the king said this, the prosecutor came forward to put a packet of papers in front of each of the members of the jury. Once he finished, he stood in front of them and said, “Please take note of these numbers. This is a record of all the prisoners of war that could have been captured, but was executed by the general. This is a war crime of the highest level, so I hope that everyone will recognize the severity of this crime.”

The defense attorney knitted his brows before saying, “Objection! This is clearly misleading the members of the jury with his words!”

The king waved his hand casually as he said, “Overruled.”

The defense attorney knitted his brows even more when he heard this, but he couldn’t say anything since the king had already spoken.

The only thing that he could do was reach his hand out towards the prosecutor as if he was asking for something. But to his surprise, he found that the prosecutor actually ignored him.

In cases like this, the evidence should be offered to the defense as well so they could cross examine it, but the prosecutor actually ignored him.

The defense attorney made another objection, but it was once again overruled by the king.

When this happened, the defense attorney revealed a very ugly expression.

At this point, even a fool could tell that they were targeting him and General Gardner.

There wasn’t a single thing that was fair about this trial, it was all designed to make General Gardner seem as guilty as possible.

There was a moment where the defense attorney had the urge to just leave, but he knew that this was impossible. Not only would they have to fight the royal guards that had gathered because of the king, it would be impossible to repair their reputation if they ran.

So the only thing that they could do was endure this humiliation and find a way to reverse this trial.

It was just too bad that there really was nothing that they could do.

Once the prosecutor finished showing these things, he turned to point at General Gardner and said, “Other than these war crimes, there are other crimes that General Gardner has committed. We will be exposing all of these crimes one by one and I hope that you will see that he is not someone who is worthy of his position.”

The defense attorney immediately said, “Objection! We are here to discuss the crime of treason, how could we bring other matters into this?”

But once again, the king just said with a casual wave of the hand, “Overruled.”

The prosecutor turned to look at General Gardner and the defense attorney before revealing a smug smile.

The way that the prosecutor looked at the two of them, it was almost as if he was daring them to do something.

This really pushed the buttons of both the defense attorney and General Gardner.

This pushed him to the point where he couldn’t take it anymore as he raised his fist and slammed it down on the table to say, “You say that this is a trial, but you haven’t even given us the chance to speak! You call this a fair trial?”

The prosecutor didn’t answer this time and instead turned to look at the fourth prince.

The fourth prince gave a nod before standing up and saying, “Of course this isn’t a fair trial. Why would you think that you would be given a fair trial?”

General Gardner was shocked to hear this before turning to look at the crowd around him.

He had hoped that at least one of them would be on his side, but he found that all of them had a calm look on their faces even though the fourth prince had admitted to rigging the trial. It was as if they had all been aware of this from the very beginning.

This shocked him even more since he had heard them speak up for him when he walked in…

It turned out that this had all been a ploy to make him let his guard down so that it would come as a bigger shock when everything was revealed.

At this point, he realized that he was nothing more than a fool who had been completely manipulated by the fourth prince…

But there was something that he still didn’t understand.

“Why?” General Gardner asked through gritted teeth.

The fourth prince looked at him for a second before sitting back down and giving the spotlight back to the prosecutor without answering this question.
