1509 I Testify
Outside the Elder Council Judgment Hall was an even taller, majestic, and palace-like building.
In this palace, the Judgment Hall was only one of the very ordinary rooms. In another room on the other side, a group of people were gathered. A huge virtual screen opened in front of them, and what was playing was the situation in the Judgment Hall.
If Chu Nan was here, he would definitely be shocked.
This was because, among the group of people who were paying close attention to the trial, other than the familiar Prince Lekas and some other Declan royal families, there were actually Angie Prairie and Supremacy Oville who he was even more familiar with!
Supremacy Oville stood with Prince Lekas while Angie Prairie stood beside her.
Although the current Angie Prairie did not have a dejected and sad expression like the video Chu Nan had shown him in Cleveland, she did not always have a happy and hearty smile like usual, let alone any casual appearance. She only raised her head slightly and her gaze locked onto Chu Nan on the virtual screen. Her expression was calm, but her eyes revealed an extremely complicated gaze that was extremely difficult to see on her.
Her expression was extremely focused as she looked at Chu Nan on the virtual screen. She was not even willing to blink as if she would disappear as long as she looked at him less.
Beside her, Supremacy Oville glanced at Angie Prairie sideways and frowned slightly. She sighed in her mind and turned to look at Prince Lekas on the other side.
“Lekas, I don’t understand why you have to make such a judgment. Don’t you think it’s very unnecessary? With the usual style of your Declan royal family, there’s no need to do this. Either you kill Chu Nan directly or force him to make a choice now. Why do you have to go through the motions?”
Beside him, Angie Prairie’s body shook slightly. She finally retracted her gaze from the virtual screen and turned to Prince Lekas with Supremacy Oville.
“No, this is very necessary.” Prince Lekas shook his head, “To an ancient clan like ours that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, rules and procedures are very important. Only by persevering with these rules and procedures can our family last longer.”
“I don’t think your Declan royal family likes to talk about rules and procedures. Your image in the entire Milky Way is always domineering and unreasonable, right?” Supremacy Oville retorted bluntly.
When the other Declan royal families behind Prince Lekas heard this, they looked at Supremacy Oville angrily. However, Prince Lekas smiled and said, “That’s only an attitude towards outsiders. This time, it also involves our own clansmen. Moreover, this clansmen’s status in our race is a little special, so we need to be especially careful.”
Supremacy Oville followed Prince Lekas’s gaze and turned to look at the virtual screen. When she saw that the scene was focused on Pamela, she could not help but frown slightly.
She had heard some things about Pamela being with her and Chu Nan from Angie Prairie and knew some things that had happened between him and her. She knew that this young princess who had changed her body greatly because of a genetic mutation was indeed a little special, but was her specialness so special that the Declan Royal Elder Council had to treat her specially?
Prince Lekas suddenly stood up from his seat and tidied his clothes slightly. He smiled at Supremacy Oville and Angie Prairie and said, “It’s almost my turn. Wait here for a moment. I hope to see Chu Nan give a satisfactory answer later.”
Supremacy Oville shook her head.
“You should know very well that no matter how he answers, we won’t be satisfied.”
“Oh, is that so?” Prince Lekas spread out his hands, “Then you can expect him to give you the least dissatisfied answer.”
After saying that, Prince Lekas turned around and walked out of the room.
Supremacy Oville watched him leave and sighed softly. She turned to look at Angie Prairie and thought for a moment before holding her hand.
“Heh, Angie Prairie, have you thought about it?”
Angie Prairie stared at Chu Nan on the virtual screen for a while before suddenly turning around and blinking at Supremacy Oville with a brilliant smile.
“I’ve thought about it. No matter how he answers, I won’t be disappointed in him, because I like him no matter what, right?”
Looking at the bright smile on Angie Prairie’s face that was as bright as before, but clearly mixed with a trace of the same emotion, Supremacy Oville sighed deeply in her mind and reached out to rub her head.
“Alright, it’s good that you can figure it out. Next, let’s see what answer Chu Nan will give.”
In the trial hall.
Prince Montique walked to the witness stand and looked at Chu Nan with a calm expression.
Chu Nan glanced at him and was a little puzzled.
Logically speaking, Prince Montique had the highest relationship with Pamela. He also knew the best about his relationship with her and knew even better what was going on with Princess Pamela’s so-called private impartation of the Exterminating Heart Technique to Chu Nan. He should have become Chu Nan’s staunch ally and become a witness beneficial to him.
However, ever since Prince Montique entered this hall, he had always ignored Chu Nan and Pamela and did not look at them. This was the first time their gazes had met.
If it was said that he was doing this to avoid suspicion previously, now that the two of them were looking at each other, he should more or less reveal some information.
However, this guy was still expressionless and did not say anything. Could it be that he was really so careful?
“Montique, did you privately impart the Exterminating Heart Technique to Chu Nan?” After Prince Montique stood still, President Anduin asked directly.
This was the first question every prince and princess would be asked. Prince Montique shook his head and replied simply, “No.”
“Then, do you think Chu Nan has any thoughts or signs of secretly learning the Exterminating Heart Technique?” President Anduin asked again.
This was also a question that every prince and princess would be asked. When faced with this question, the different princes and princesses naturally had different answers.
For example, Prince Safnis, Prince Ramos, and the other princes and princesses who had been eliminated by Chu Nan from the Garden Hunting Assembly for various reasons would naturally answer with certainty. As for Princess Romanti and Princess Viennelle, who had a better relationship with him, they would naturally answer no.
In fact, Princess Romanti even gave an even more detailed answer in person. She described the first few battles between her and Chu Nan in detail and expressed that the cultivation method he used only looked a little similar to the Exterminating Heart Technique, but it was actually not the true Exterminating Heart Technique. Therefore, he had not learned it at all.
Moreover, Princess Romanti also emphasized that with Chu Nan’s talent and strength, there was no need for her to take the risk of secretly learning the Exterminating Heart Technique because even without it, he was still much stronger than the others.
In order to emphasize this, Princess Romanti even admitted that she was inferior to Chu Nan. Even if she used the Exterminating Heart Technique with all her might, she could not gain any advantage in front of him.
This answer caused the other Declan royal families who were watching the trial to sigh in surprise.
Princess Romanti and Prince Montique were called the most outstanding princesses and princes among the next generation of the royal family of Declan. They were seen as the new generation of the royal family that was very likely to break through to the Star-Grade Martial Artist in the shortest period of time.
However, now, she calmly expressed that she was inferior to Chu Nan. With her usual famous arrogance, this was really rare.
Now that this question was asked to Prince Montique, Chu Nan’s gaze landed on him and he thought to himself that his answer should be the same as Princess Romanti’s and choose to firmly deny it.
However, Prince Montique glanced at Chu Nan again.
This glance still did not contain any emotions, but Chu Nan instantly felt a basin of cold water splash down on him.
Prince Montique slowly spoke.
“Yes, Chu Nan secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique. I’ll be the witness.”
