"Hero?" The grand judges were confused. They had heard about Laufey Ardagan, so they were so sure that Laufey was a traitor. How could Duke Lorelei call him a hero?
They all thought the same thing. Rather than the facts, the grand judges couldn't help but ask, "Duke Lorelei. Are you under threat because of this testimony?"
Yes, they might think Noel had pressured Duke Lorelei to give a certain testimony. Then again, even if they knew about this threat, they couldn't do anything about it.
Who could fight a spirit king? The constitution? Even if Noel became a king, people would definitely welcome him. After all, he was a good lord in his land, and his reputation was without blemish.
Duke Lorelei understood it as well, so he shook his head. "You don't have to worry about this, Your Honor. I haven't committed any crimes, including perjury. There is no threat either. What I'm about to present to you is the reason I dare to call him a hero."
