The King of Knights in a Different World

The King of Knights in a Different World Chapter 22

"Conspiracy..." At this moment, Siegfried's voice hesitated.

"What about a hundred?"

"Riot killing!"

"Yes! You seem to know the laws of Britain well, too. There is never a statute in my laws that says our birth is a sin. To be born with a sin is a religious bastard's practice, not ours. The laws of the country of knights. Do you understand?"

Many religions regard a person's birth as a sin, and as long as various names are added, a person can be judged smoothly. Even in the name of justice. Such an approach made Lucifer feel ridiculous.

Want to be a partner in justice? You must at least have the awareness of Emiya Kiritsugu.

"Yes!" Siegfried already understood what Lucifer meant.

It's not that Wang doesn't understand what's going on here, it's just that Wang is thinking about a country, not some people here.

"Since you understand that killing a hundred people is a crime, why do a thousand people? A thousand people with malicious intentions want to use this barbaric method to execute a girl? Tell me! Is this the so-called justice? ?" Lucifer raised his volume, and his voice reached the ears of everyone present.

Hearing these words, some knights who were a little hesitant immediately straightened their waists. That's right, the person in front of them was planning to kill an innocent person in such a dark way before. Together they could all be murderers. Thinking of this, the doubts in the knight's heart disappeared immediately.

"No! Justice is definitely not what it looks like in front of you." Siegfried looked at Lucifer again with determination in his eyes.

Yes, he hesitated just now. Because the people below were supposed to be the objects of their protection, this made him subconsciously think that it was the girl who had a problem, not these people. Now he has strengthened his knighthood even more.

"Yes, quite ridiculous."

Lucifer stood up, he made a certain decision.

"Now, I will give you a chance to choose. If you firmly believe that she is a witch, then stand to the left. If you give up the previous accusation, then stand to the right. After that, I will personally investigate what happened here. If the facts Prove that everything was her crime, and I will execute her myself and give each of you a medal of honor for accusing her."

Lucifer's words at this moment surprised everyone. They subconsciously thought that Lucifer was blinded by the witch before, and now he recovered.

In fact, most of the people here were unconvinced, because Lucifer was the king who suppressed them by force, and they still naively believed that they were the party of justice.

And what Lucifer has to do is to break this false and boring justice.

"Really? Did you hear that?" Fefar immediately began to force the rhythm again, so he thought he had escaped. But he didn't notice Lucifer looking at him at all.

Before the crowd reacted, Lucifer continued his previous speech.

"However, if after investigation, I find that she is just an innocent girl. Then everyone on the left will be executed for malicious attempted murder. Now, choose! If you still insist on your previous will, then go to the left , prove it to me."

Lucifer gave a choice. A choice that couldn't be simpler, before these people didn't realize that they were murderers, now Lucifer just let them clearly understand what he was doing.

This time, the crowd was dead silent. Before that, most of them held in their hearts that even if they were investigated, with so many people here, could it be a fluke that they were all caught in prison.

But now, this luck was ruthlessly shattered. Lucifer clearly told them that they would become murderers, and under such circumstances, they did not have the consciousness to be responsible for their own actions.

After a dead silence, almost everyone walked to the right silently. Before, they only thought that their actions would have no consequences, so they dared to rush forward. When they realized that they might be executed because of the murderer, they had long since lost their initial anger.

At this time, only a few leaders are still standing on the left. Their expressions were very guilty, and after looking at each other, another one of them ran to the right. And then like a knock-on effect, everyone goes to the right.

Even Furfar, the loudest.

Fefar's actions aroused contempt from all around. He didn't have the consciousness of being a martyr, nor did he have the courage. Someone spit on him, and others started to spit, because his behavior made others feel cheated, even betrayed.

In the end, it was the knights who maintained the scene so that there was no chaos again. After seeing the scene, the knights became more convinced that their king possessed the wisdom called wisdom.

At this time, Artoria also returned here. She had just found out what was going on here.

"See, Leah. These guys are boring people from a county. They only dare to point their weapons at people who are weaker than themselves, and they still have luck in their hearts. The fact is that they never kill or be killed Enlightened." Lucifer said lightly.

After temporarily handing over the town to Agguvin and the town diplomacy to Siegfried, Lucifer is going to go with Artoria to see the witch who was slandered before.

"I thought it would turn into a large-scale rebellion, but it turned out to be like this. Sure enough, as long as there is a king, these are just small things." Walking, Artoria expressed her opinion. *

The group of people behind had lost the possibility of unity, and Lucifer used the fact of death to split them internally.

"No, it's not a small thing.

This is a very dangerous signal, remember what those nobles who rebelled said to me before?"

Lucifer took the words with great interest.

"That's slandering the king."

Arturia immediately retorted loudly.

During the previous year's rebellion, those rebels also unfurled various banners, some said that Lucifer was a robber who took everything from the royal family.

Some said he was a tyrant, some even said he was just a lucky coward and so on.

Although Lucifer himself didn't care about it, the knights in his hand hated it extremely.

"But some people still believe it, don't they?"

"..."

"Those people down there are so boring and stupid they don't even know what they're doing.

Such a person can easily become a tool in the hands of someone with good intentions to subvert the country.

So if you want to protect them, the best thing to do is not to forgive directly, but to let them understand the serious consequences of what they did."

Lucifer said calmly.

The direct and tolerant treatment is indeed very easy for people to get the title of virtuous king.

But that... will lead to more serious consequences, and make people feel that as long as they join a group, even murder or even rebellion can be forgiven.

Once this is started, the domestic environment in Britain, which has finally improved, will deteriorate again.

For this reason, even if none of the leaders went to the right just now, Lucifer will not be relentless once it is found out that they are guilty.

As long as the people behind them understand that it is useless to do things in this way, they will give up.

Otherwise they'd still be doing it.

"The correct method, the correct rule, the correct jurisprudence, the king created these...... Wasn't it to guide the country in the right direction?"

"That's right, that's our expectation.

But unfortunately not everyone understands this correctness."

Speaking of this, Lucifer smiled self-deprecatingly, and said.

"Although I have been vaguely dubbed the title of a virtuous king by many people, in fact I don't have too many expectations of them, I never thought that I would be understood, I never thought that I would be sympathetic.

Liya, a person who is too influenced by ordinary people can't be a king!"

Artoria looked at Lucifer's going away figure, thought for a moment and then followed with a smile.

This is probably...the difference between them, and Arturia understands this very well.

At this moment, the mayor's hall of the small town has been temporarily requisitioned as Lucifer's command post, surrounded by knight guards.

Before that, Artoria was...sending Joan here.

It was also when she was giving it away that she discovered a small problem that she hadn't noticed before, that is, the girl in front of her was actually very similar to her.

Of course, only the face is very similar.

Lucifer came to a lounge on the second floor, looking at Joan of Arc out of the window in frustration.

The twist-like braid...is unraveled, and she looks a little girlish now, but her expression is gloomy.

Thinking about it carefully, it is impossible for anyone to be cheerful after going through that kind of situation.

Lucifer looked at the girl's face, and found a trace of familiarity.

Yes, I seem to have seen it many times before, but the hairstyle is different.

"Do you feel better"

Lucifer approached and asked softly.

At this moment, Joan of Arc noticed the two people approaching, she got out of bed in a little panic, and pulled up the hem of her sackcloth skirt with both hands, doing a very poor etiquette.

"Thank you! Much better! Jeanne d'Arc has seen the king."

Although Joan tried her best to look like the noble young lady whom she had met several times before, this kind of imitation made Fei Dan look different, and it couldn't highlight her own temperament at all.

"..."

Lucifer was silent, and the knight Ji next to him couldn't bear to look directly at her.

Based on their experience of participating in countless balls, the salute in front of them is really quite speechless.

However, Lucifer......... didn't laugh at anything.

The girl in front of me is just a little clumsy, and she doesn't want to show it deliberately.

Their silence caused Joan to misunderstand.

"That... is there anything strange about it?

I'm sorry..., I haven't studied etiquette, and even some characters I just learned were heard through the public school founded by Wang, please forgive my rudeness, Wang."

Jeanne was a little flustered.

In her life so far, the biggest person she has ever met is only the eldest lady of a second baron.

Seeing the king all of a sudden, the level jumps a bit high.

Lucifer didn't pay attention to her etiquette issues, but suddenly discovered an interesting thing.

"I haven't discovered it just now, and now I suddenly discovered it.

Leah, you two have very similar faces.

It's just that Liya's face is a little more heroic, and this girl looks more gentle."

Yes.

There was some dust on the girl's face just now, and she looked a little dirty.

Lucifer didn't pay attention either, only now did he realize that she looks very similar to the knight Ji beside him.

Reminds me of the girl's name being Joan of Arc.

Hmm, does this count as winning a grand prize by accident? In my previous life, as an old player who started the server, I didn’t get a French village girl until I crossed over. Now that the physical version is out, Lucifer suddenly feels that he is cut from France. Coming to this land was one of the most correct decisions in previous negotiations.

"I can't deny that."

Arturia's expression was a bit complicated.

In an instant, she regained her composure.

Just like what Lucifer said, there is only a similarity between them, and they are not exactly the same.

Coupled with the problem of body shape, it is basically impossible to recognize the wrong person.

"It looks like a knight, I...I..."

Joan of Arc seemed to have discovered this subtle problem at this time.

She blushed a little.

After all, she is still a little happy that she is the same as the right hand of the... high above the king.

"The fact is...the fact, there is no need to deny it."

In Lucifer's tone, he tried his best to make her forget the barrier of identity.

Joan didn't forget, but she didn't just feel awe like other people who met for the first time.

"But suddenly someone said that I look like Lord Knight, this person is still a king.

The mood is a bit complicated. Before that, I never thought about the situation now. I have always felt that I am very ordinary.

She is an ordinary country girl."

The Joan of Arc in front of him made Lucifer feel a little funny.

It seems very rare for me to admit that I am a village girl from the countryside.

If other people are facing themselves, they probably try their best to show their own advantages, even if they don't have advantages, they will pretend to have them.

I have seen this in many noble ladies.

"Looking like you is a village girl does not contradict you, does it?"
