Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

When he had finished saying this, a bulky noble slowly emerged from behind the iron bars of the defendant’s area.

The noble flashed a provocative smile at Kael.

Kael’s expression remained indifferent as he looked at the Noble Council and spoke again, "If he is willing to pay the price for this, then I have nothing more to say."

Wels, who had been silent until then, finally showed a hint of a smile on his face, knowing that the most troublesome part was over for him.

With three people sharing the responsibility, the punishment allocated to each was severe but no longer lethal. With some operation, it was not impossible for them to get out early.

"But..."

Kael spoke up again, "I protest that Wels and the other two not only posed a threat to my personal safety but also violated my property."

"You’re spouting nonsense!" Wels shouted loudly.

"Didn’t you hear what I said? Do not interrupt me when I am speaking," Kael raised his head to look at Wels, his deep blue eyes gradually undergoing a change.

"Baron Helois, please restrain your power. The Noble Council’s session is a solemn and serious occasion.

Of course, Mr. Wels, I also ask you to shut up, otherwise, I will consider your behavior as disrupting the council’s proceedings," said an elderly noble with graying hair, tapping his cane and snorting coldly.

Hearing the old noble’s warning, Wels could only lower his head, not daring to speak further.

Would he dare? To Kael, that was because he had already become Kael’s enemy, without any room for maneuver.

But if he provoked the old judges of the Noble Council further, he would suffer in the future.

Seeing this situation, a smile finally appeared on Kael’s face, "Judge, since my father Anthony was alive, we have been continuously supporting several orphanages in the neighboring towns.

According to the nobles’ regulations, these orphanages are my property. Concerning this recognition, don’t you agree?"

"Agreed, the orphanages are the sacred and inviolable property of Baron Helois."

"Given that, not only was my property directly abducted by Mr. Wels, but it was also sold to other nobles through his own business.

Doesn’t this constitute a substantial encroachment on my property and directly cause me loss?"

Kael did not choose to speak directly for the peasants whose children had been trafficked because he did not hold such a position.

However, the orphanages belonged directly to his own industry, and someone had been abducted from there, which fell within his realm of direct intervention.

"Judge, the girl who was abducted by him was identified by us as a genius, who could go far on the path of a mage if she were to receive extensive training.

Over the years, we have invested a great deal of effort in training the girl, who now, along with another abducted child, has lost her life.

They could have received the best education during the happiest times and become knights of Lancaster, but now they can only lie in the Ice Coffin, an overwhelmingly painful outcome!"

Sack, realizing something was amiss, glared at his inept comrade. What was he talking about that has now led others to catch a fault?

Therefore, he spoke up, "Baron Helois, what evidence do you have to prove that you made a substantial investment in that deceased lady?"

Kael’s lips curled up in a slight smile, saying, "On this matter, our Lancaster accounts have recorded every funding for the orphanage and the expenses of such funding.

Just the education investments alone have cost us over 240,000 purple gold coins over the years, not to mention some special materials supplied internally by Lancaster itself.

Now I can show the relevant records to the judges for examination, and there is a detailed description also on the list of the hired teachers.

You are free to learn more about this, as it includes several high-level teachers from the Mage Academy.

Moreover, let me add, Mr. Sack, do not doubt our support for geniuses, restore that dead genius girl’s innocence."

This record of providing education for the orphanage children, this act was a kind gesture left by my father.

But now, with the "fact" that a great number of teachers had been hired for teaching, this could lead to many manipulations.

Wels laughed angrily. If, as it was said, this account book could be produced and withstand investigation, then he was essentially accused of violating a noble’s significant property.

The pressure this carried was comparable to a direct violation of a noble’s personal safety.

He scoffed angrily, "That girl might not have truly been a genius; you’re spreading rumors, and you lack evidence!"

Several nobles below laughed, pointing out his hypocrisy in disregarding evidence when it suited him but loudly challenging it when he found himself in trouble. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, Kael sneered and said, "You attempted misconduct against me last night, and I accuse you of violating a noble’s safety."

"Produce the evidence then!"

"You might not have truly attempted to violate me, just lacking evidence. It’s embarrassing to say, but I, Kael.D.Helois, seem to always appear in some indecent clips of the Royal Capital.

Although this displeases me, doesn’t it also suggest that many are coveting my tainted body?"
