Will of chaos
718 Cap 716: The price of justice
Pov Allan (Hero of the God of Justice):
Arriving inside the Palace my group and I went straight to the 8th Prince Gordon's room, the Soldiers, Knights, and Guards were not able to stop us as they couldn't keep up with our speed, Bianca would have difficulty if it wasn't for the item that increases her speed to follow us.
When we got to the room he was nowhere to be found and it looked like a lot of things had been taken.
"He's not here, where is the passage where we found the records?" (I)
Bianca takes a map out of her storage item and we ran after her to the secret room, but it was also empty, we found a broken teleportation magic circle, it must have been him to erase her tracks.
"He must already be heading for the escape route." (Bianca)
"But which one? We don't have time to look at all the escape routes he's prepared that we've found so far." (I)
"With the city being destroyed he must want to leave fast, he must be in the Palace harbor on the new ship he built." (Darcia)
"Come on, we can catch him on the way, he shouldn't be far, on the way keep looking for him." (I)
We started running towards the river behind the Palace, this river leads to the Ocean and only royalty can sail this river.
As we were running there we saw two people in the middle of a crowd, but while the crowd of servants was running towards the Palace to possibly protect themselves from the disaster happening all over the city, these two people were heading in the opposite direction.
While I thought Darcia had already acted, she stopped in front of the two suspicious people and took off their hood, just seeing the two of them was enough for me to recognize the man as the 8th Prince Gordon, I recognized him from the images I saw of him during the investigation.
"I found you." (I)
I use my Aura to scare nearby people away from me, when Darcia moves to grab the 8th Prince the second person next to him moves to stop Darcia, but I grab his hand and throw the Maid up.
"Huh!?" (I)
"Jennifer." (8⁰ Prince)
"Young master, run." (Jennifer?)
I look at my hand and see a bite on the side of my hand where green goo oozes out, from the slight numbness it seems to be some kind of paralyzing poison.
"< Constraint > ×2" (I)
I use my Aura and mana for a spell that creates shackles and chains to restrain both the Maid and the 8th Prince, I also close their mouths, I don't have time to listen to pleas for mercy or hysterical screams.
"They're attacking Prince Gordon, CALL THE KNIGHTS!"
I understand people trying to protect this fool, but I don't have time to explain the situation and I can't let anyone interrupt.
"Bianca, seal the area." (I)
"< Barrier of Retribution >" (Bianca)
A barrier forms around us for a few dozen meters, I go over to the maid to see what she has with her while Darcia does the same with the 8th Prince.
After a quick look, I found some storage items, I wound everything inside, but it only had men's clothes and a few dresses plus other random stuff, nothing to worry about or what I'm looking for.
"I found!" (Darcia)
I go to Darcia, the 8th Prince had his clothes damaged, Darcia must have ripped parts of his clothes to take out anything that might be hidden, she is much more aggressive than I am in that sense.
I approach and look at various items on the floor like jewelry, money, magic items, weapons, scrolls, books, and other items.
Darcia was holding a bag that she opens and turns upside down, dropping what she would describe as multicolored pieces of metal that emit a slight, easily felt natural energy.
"Flow Choir." (Bianca)
"We already knew it was him, now we have the proof." (I)
"We don't have time, do Bianca." (I)
"Yea." (Bianca)
Bianca knelt as she prayed to the God of Justice Justhos while hers Aura to boil with a power that encompasses both good and evil.
"< I am the impartial balance by which justice is revealed.
My voice only tells the facts.
My hands point out the crimes.
My eyes see through falsehoods. >" (Bianca)
Her every word makes an image of a scale become more and more solid as it absorbs her Aura and the holy power of her body.
"< May I be the means by which justice is served.
May I be the means by which crimes are revealed.
May through me the one who bears the Divine responsibility to bring justice to the world make the judgment. >" (Bianca)
Soon the scale becomes almost solid, the simple scale contains a bloodstained silver sword on one side and a multicolored feather on the other side.
"< God of Justice Justhos, I who serve your justice ask you to judge the evils of the world.
May your impartial eyes judge criminals by bringing retribution for their crimes.
May justice be fulfilled by means of the scales to which I place myself at your service. >" (Bianca)
At that moment Bianca removes the crystal containing the blessings of an Elf Queen outside, holding it in one hand while pointing to the 8th Prince Gordon with the other hand.
"< Reveal Your Crimes >" (Bianca)
The once transparent chains and handcuffs restraining the 8th Prince turn golden and his eyes glow as the image of a large translucent eye forms above his head, when this eye opens what contains within it are images of the 8th Prince's crimes passing in quick succession.
"< Judgement >" (Bianca)
The scale leans completely to the side of the bloodstained sword, as the sword leaves the scale and pierces 8⁰ Prince Gordon from the top of the head through the entire body to the ground.
His body is incinerated in golden flames as strands of energy of all kinds emerge from the flames to be absorbed by the crystal that begins to light up.
"May your crime be punished by using your energy to atone for your crime during your death." (Bianca)
When the golden flames went out there was nothing but the sword which was no longer stained with blood, the sword was completely clean when it returned to the scales disappearing as the crystal containing the Elf Queen's blessings turned to green energy that becomes a flow of green energy going somewhere in the city.
I look into the distance not knowing what will happen now, I just hope this is enough to save the city and the people who live in it.
I look at where the 8th Prince Gordon once stood, there's nothing left of him, then I look at the maid still in chains, her eyes were shedding tears nonstop as her eyes became empty.
"That's the price of justice when doing something so wrong for clearly wrong reasons must be ready for justice in the same proportion." (I)
