Chapter 29
""Your Majesty! Did you hear all this? Please punish these guys severely!"
Besta said, not noticing Ling Yan's smiling face.
The Dwarf King kept his eyes closed and did not move.
After confirming the Dwarf King's reaction, the attendant spoke for the King.
"Silence! The verdict will be read out next! The main offender, Kaijin, is sentenced to twenty years of forced labor in the mines."
"The other accomplices were sentenced to ten years of forced labor in the mines. The trial ended here.——"
"——Wait a minute."
A deep, calm voice interrupted the closing statement.
The dwarf king opened his eyes and stared at Kaijin.
"Long time no see, how are you, Kaijin?"
"……Yes! Your Majesty is well, and I am glad to see that you are in good health."
After a pause, Kaijin responded
""No need to be polite, we have nothing to do with each other."
The Dwarf King responded to Kaijin, and then asked the key question,"Compared to all this, do you plan to come back?"
This treatment seemed to be a special case, and the surroundings began to make noise.
Besta's face turned blue in an instant.
Rimuru looked in a certain direction inadvertently, and saw that the agent who had just betrayed them had a deathly pale face.
"My king, please forgive my intrusion! I have pledged my loyalty to the new master! The bond between the new master and me is as precious to me. Even if there is a royal decree, I am unwilling to give up this treasure!"
Everyone present changed their expressions when they heard this, and the guards even released murderous intent towards Kaijin.
Although he became the target of public criticism, Kaijin was still fearless. Instead, he held his chest high with a clear conscience and looked at the king intently.
Seeing those eyes, the king closed his eyes again.
"Yeah……"
The surroundings fell silent again.——
"I hereby announce the verdict, listen carefully! Kaijin and his accomplices are exiled. They are not allowed to stay in our country after midnight tonight. You must disappear from my sight!"
The dwarf king opened his eyes wide and pronounced the verdict in a loud voice.
This is the king's domineering power! The oppressive feeling makes people tremble all over.
However, the king seems to be very lonely.
Kaijin also kept shedding tears. It is unknown how many years it will take for them to meet again after this separation....
"Elf King Lingyan, do you have any objection to this verdict?"
The Dwarf King asked Lingyan who was standing beside him.
"Me? No, that's it."
"I believe that the actions of your minister, Besta, only represent him personally, not the armed state, Dowagang."
"This will not affect the friendship between our two countries."
"That's great."
The trial ended here.
Besta swallowed his saliva. The Dwarf King remained silent, which made him more and more scared.
The next moment, as if to break the silence.
The Dwarf King Gazel spoke,"Okay, Besta, what do you want to say?"
"King..I...that"
"What a pity, I lost a loyal minister"
"Your Majesty, why do you say that? People like Kaijin...Instead of pledging allegiance to you, he also teamed up with a slime of unknown origin...."
"Besta, you misunderstood."
"Eh"
"The loyal minister I lost is..."
The dwarf king didn't say anything, and Besta was stunned.
Besta's heart began to beat wildly.
What the king meant was...
Besta was too scared to think
"I, your servant, am terrified.……"
"I am looking forward to your performance and have been waiting for you."
"The same thing about the magic weapon, I have been waiting for you to tell the truth"
"I, your servant, am terrified.……"
"This time is no different……"
The dwarf king, contrary to his usual behavior, looked at Besta with a pleasant expression.
But his smile was not real, and his words were sharper than a sword, piercing Besta directly.
""Look at these."
The king pointed at two things.
The attendants had brought these three items at some point.
Besta looked at them with empty eyes.
The first one was something Besta had never seen before, a bag-like sphere filled with liquid.
The second one was a long sword.
The third one was a trade agreement.
"Do you know what this is?"
"Explain it for him."
After receiving the king's order, the attendant began to explain.
It took Besta some time to get his brain working and listen to the attendant's words.
That was not a resurrection potion, but it was a pure extract of the Hippocut herb, which was a complete recovery potion.
Even if the dwarves' technical quintessence was gathered, at most only 98% of the essence could be extracted.
98% - this ratio can only be used to make high-level recovery potions, but the spherical object has a concentration of 99%!
Besta was so scared that his face was distorted. He wanted to know! He wanted to know how to extract it - more shocking information was still to come, and the relevant instructions drilled into Besta's ears.
"The slime is the one who brought these finished products. Because of you, we lost the opportunity to work with the monster. What do you want to say?"
This sentence is the key, which makes Besta understand how angry the king is. He has nothing to say.
"Your Majesty, I have nothing to say."
"And the trade agreement, the Elf King named Ling Yan can tear up the trade agreement directly."
"Our country has always been short of fruit-based food. What you did disappointed the Elf King named Lingyan."
"I heard that you splashed water on a female elf. Besta, let me ask you, is that elf in our country? Should she be protected by our country?"
"But you poured water on her. What you did not only disappointed me, but also disappointed the elves in our country."
"Because of what you did, we will lose the friendship of the elves"
