Chương 175: Chapter 175

The entrance of Lord Balrus inside the court house alerted everyone, including Artemis. The Lord never visits the court, he thoughts the good folks complaints were dull and untrue. Some cases the good folks should solve themselves instead of putting it to the Master of Laws, Lord Balrus could be heard saying that.

Hence his presence there could only mean one thing, he had something to say. Artemis stood up and everyone who was seated quickly rose up as a sign of respect for the King. Then he led the way and Aurora followed him behind, Lord Angun abandoned the cases and walked outside to hear what Lord Balrus had to say.

When four of them were outside the court standing in the corridor leading to the council chamber, Lord Balrus started to speak: "Lord Leoric has betrayed us Your Grace" and this was his first sentence. The next words that came out of his mouth sounded like treason in Artemis's ears even though it wasn't.
