The trial continues with applause, cheers and shouts.
The noises in the center of the square were so loud that even people outside the town could hear them. You can imagine how excited and fanatical the people at the scene must have been at that time.
Maybe human nature is like this, maybe humans are born to be lively, and many things that happen may not be related to issues of good and evil, right and wrong.
No matter what happened to a person during his or her lifetime, many incidents will often be brought to light after the person dies.
There are good and bad things. However, most of them are evil things. Many things that you dare not say or are embarrassed to say when you are alive will often spread among the crowd at the fastest speed after someone dies.
What's more, tax officer Bakar was not a kind person when he was alive. Although he did not commit murder and arson, he did do evil things by taking advantage of his power.
Therefore, everyone pushed down the wall, and after his death, accusations continued to fall on him.
Most of them are true and have evidence to support them. However, there are also a small number of accusations that are purely false and are simply the product of some people adding insult to injury to seek benefits.
However, this is the time when everyone is having a big carnival, how many people can pay attention to these details?
Even if Romon noticed it, but based on his thoughts, he still wanted to let the tax official force fall as hard as possible. How could he explain anything to his opponent?
Anyway, the person is already dead and was killed by him. The more unforgivable the other party's crime, the lighter his responsibility.
Although the second lady and others proved that he committed the murder in self-defense, the other party was a member of a noble family. Romon was still afraid that the other party would one day reverse the verdict. Only by constantly putting a hat on the other party's head would it be beneficial to his own safety.
What's more, Bakar was killed by him when he found an opportunity, but what about the priest? He had to find a way to do it once and for all.
Therefore, he chose to ignore the ugliness hidden under the great harmony on the surface.
"You have sinned deeply..." At this time, on the high platform in the center of the square, Pastor Tennis was pronouncing the sentence on the accomplices in the tax collector's case.
The young man wearing a white priest's robe looked a little pale at this time and his voice was a little hoarse. However, under the gaze of everyone, he still managed to remain calm and insisted on reciting the words of the priest before the sentencing.
In front of Pastor Tennis, there were two people with their heads lowered and trembling.
It was none other than the two people who accompanied Bakar to the appointment. At this time, they were not as arrogant as before. Without their backer, they were worse than a lost dog.
Since the chief culprit Bakar has been executed, the trial of the accomplices is not too important and is only placed at the end.
The second young lady was speaking with her father, the lord, and as a priest, Pastor Tennis also had the responsibility and obligation to preside over this meeting.
Therefore, although in Pastor Tennis's heart, he did not want to go on stage to read the verdict, he could not shirk it because of the pastor's responsibilities.
While reading, Pastor Tennis's eyes were also wandering around. He was constantly observing the reactions of those below, for fear that others would see his uneasy mood at this time.
Yes, uneasy.
Ever since he learned that Bakar was killed, he suddenly felt like a rabbit was dead and a fox was sad.
Although Bakar and he only had a relationship of mutual use, but with the death of the other party, he gradually lost confidence in his own safety.
There was a history between him and Romon. Even if we go into details, it seemed that he was the one who confronted Romon in the first place, not Bakar.
Now, Bakar has been killed by Romon. Regardless of whether the other party killed someone in self-defense or deliberately, it's just that the person was killed by Romon anyway.
A person died, and he gained notoriety and was scorned by others. This kind of result really made Pastor Tennis feel chilled. It also made him worried about his situation.
He was not a noble, and relied on the powerful Church behind him. However, now he suddenly found that his little sense of superiority was no longer enough to deal with Romon. This knowledge made him feel uneasy.
Suddenly, his wandering eyes met someone in the crowd, and he was stung by the ridicule in the other person's eyes. Pastor Tennis's voice trembled obviously as he read out.
"... On behalf of Temple, I would like to express my punishment to you... deprive you of your Free Citizen identity, and hang you immediately..." Soon discovering his gaffe, Pastor Tennis quickly retracted his gaze, and then, looking at his nose and asking his questions, he read out all the sentences that followed meticulously.
He saw several soldiers coming up and dragging the two people away like dogs. When the two people wailed long and far away, he finally took a breath, then walked off the stage and wiped the sweat on his head in a deserted place.
Thinking of the piercing look that Romon suddenly cast his eyes on just now, his heart couldn't help but thump.
Yes, Romon will never let him go!
If he doesn't find a way as soon as possible and strike first, he will become the next Bakar.
Square Assembly held it very successfully, at least, everyone except the Lord and Pastor Tennis thought so. Seeing that everyone slowly dispersed, the Lord also ordered someone to drive the carriage over and got on it.
"Eileen, go back." Seeing that the second daughter was still standing there, looking at the young man not far away in trance, the lord's face became more and more ugly, and he opened the curtain and shouted.
"Father, I have to go back to Temple to review my courses, so I won't go back with you." Eileen was originally looking at Romon, looking at the young man, but when his father called him, he immediately woke up.
However, thinking that she still had unfinished business in Temple, she refused her father's offer to take her back to the castle. When the lord saw that his daughter would not go back, he got back into the car more and more depressed, and then ordered the carriage to start.
Listening to the noise getting further and further away from him, the Lord, who was already worried, began to think more and more at this time. Just now, he even had a murderous intention towards Romon. However, if he really wanted to operate it, he could not afford not to consider it carefully.
It is easy for him to kill a civilian. It is not too difficult to kill a Second-Level Druid. However, there are also some negative effects. Moreover, it is too difficult to do it flawlessly under the attention of his daughter.
"Sir Baron, there is a group of adventurers gathering in front, blocking the road. Do you need your subordinates to go down and scold them?" the coachman suddenly asked outside.
The lord frowned and was about to order someone to do it, but soon, his eyes lit up, as if he thought of something, and the gloom that had been hanging on his face was swept away.
"No need, wait until they leave before the carriage passes by." He ordered with a rare good temper. The lord leaned his head on the soft pillow in the car and curled up the corners of his mouth.
At the same time, Romon, who had returned to the pharmacy, was hiding in his room counting silver coins.
A bag of silver coins was placed in front of him. This was the silver coin awarded to him by the second lady on Square Assembly on behalf of Temple and his father.
In fact, when Bakar went to the appointment, one of the two bags he brought contained about one hundred silver coins.
At first, Romon offered Bakar a price of one thousand silver coins. Later, Bakar actually took the money to the appointment. Probably because he was worried that Romon would take the action of seeing the money first and then handing over the goods.
Most of this huge sum of money was returned to the public, that is, it went into the pockets of the lords. Another small part was compensated to some victims, and the rest was given to Romon as a reward. Romon counted the money, feeling happy but somewhat regretful.
In fact, it's not that he doesn't lack money now, it's just that compared to money, he lacks a piece of land that truly belongs to him.
Unfortunately, in this world, even if you have money, if you want to have a piece of land that truly belongs to you, you still need the approval of the lord.
The place like Jefa in the forest was only built with the permission of the lord.
As a Second-Level Druid, if you have a homestead and medicinal field that truly belongs to you, it will be of great help both in cultivation and in dealing with medicinal herbs in the future. After all, medicinal herbs in the space are harvested four times a year, which is different from the harvest time of this world. If you can have a place and build a greenhouse like Jefa, then not only will you have more land and plants to practice Druid abilities, but it will also be a good shield for you to deal with space herbs.
Moreover, in the previous life, Romon's house was very spacious, with a garden and a yard in the front. In his spare time, he could plant some green vegetables in front of the two-story building where he lived. When the wind blew, the fragrance of flowers and herbs would bloom. That kind of life was really enjoyable.
Being used to living in that kind of house, Romon felt very uncomfortable with the small living space at this time.
If you had no money before, you would have to endure everything, but now that you have money, you still have to endure it. This is simply a pain for Romon.
After receiving the silver coins in the space and storing them, Romon lay flat on the bed, thinking about how to have a house and medicine field of his own.
Just at this moment, Nick pushed the door open and came in, saying, "Romon, the lord sent someone to call you over."
"Lord, are you looking for me?" After getting dressed and coming out, he discovered that a man who looked like a guard was waiting in the lobby of the pharmacy.
When he saw Romon coming out, he was not polite and directly asked the lord to see him and asked him to tell him about the castle immediately.
Since it was the lord who sent someone to call him, Romon naturally couldn't shirk it and had no choice but to follow this person and walk all the way to the castle.
Along the way, the guards did not speak. Romon asked a few questions, but when they saw that the other party was unwilling to answer, they had to give up. Finally, after walking for a while, a castle appeared in front of them.
