Chapter 169 Return (66 plus 19)
After wandering around outside for a while, Herbert and Valentina left the others behind and returned to the Misty Monastery.

Although she was extremely reluctant on the way back, after returning to the monastery, Valentina took the initiative to enter the Third Discipline Room.

Herbert was stunned by the smooth operation.

To be honest, he seemed to see a Shiba Inu holding a rope in its mouth and crawling into a cage after returning home.

Have a very good sense of self-management.

This is still a dog... Ahem! Is this still her!?
But after thinking about it, Herbert understood the meaning.

She had been in the Third Discipline House for too long and had some resentment in her heart. She had even tried to persuade Herbert to take her away.

But to be fair, apart from being a little hungry, she didn't suffer any torture there. She just slept every day...

Valentina actually doesn't have much resentment towards the Third Discipline House.

After taking a stroll outside and fully enjoying the feeling of freedom, she no longer felt that there was anything wrong with it.

Just think of it as going home to sleep after playing outside.

She just walked away and went back to sleep, but Herbert was not as relaxed as her.

After returning, he was immediately taken to the court.

In the silent hall with only two people, the presiding judge looked at Herbert silently for half an hour.

Just when Herbert was wondering whether he was angry, the presiding judge smiled with satisfaction.

"Hahahaha!"

The presiding judge patted him on the shoulder and said loudly: "You did a great job!"

"You made those people understand what a true trial is! Good! Haha! Very good!"

"Very good, very much like our Inquisition!"

Seeing him like this, Herbert also laughed.

Will the Bishop of Thorns be angry?
Do you think Herbert went too far?

No.

The position of presiding judge has never been one that can be held by just any good man or woman.

This Bishop of Thorns was an executioner known for his bloody brutality and he showed no mercy in judging criminals.

Although Herbert's operations within the kingdom were somewhat suspected of being a conspiracy, to the presiding judge, these were just harmless details.

Judging from the results, Herbert successfully eliminated the evil nobles and greatly improved the lives of civilians.

That's enough.

As for whether the nobles live or die...what does that have to do with them?

Anyway, compared to the life and death of the nobles, he cared more about the lives of the common people.

That's why he called Herbert to his presence as soon as he received the message from Sister Kaplan.

Haha.

This guy is really good!
As expected, he came out of our court!
Yes, I always thought he could do something like this!
After praising him for a long time, the chief judge shook his head again, patted him on the shoulder, and taught him earnestly:
"But I think you are still a little conservative. If you really want to be thorough, you should include the king..."

"Cough cough."

The figure of Bishop Rusty Nail emerged from the shadows, interrupted his old friend's idiotic speech with a cough, stared at him with dead fish eyes and asked:
"If the goal is to kill all the nobles, shouldn't he send the Silver Wing Archduke to the gallows as well?"

"The Grand Duke of Silver Wing? Kill him! Why keep him alive? Kill him, kill him. Anyway, the nobles... Ugh!"

The judge, who was in a murderous mood, answered without hesitation, and then realized the problem.

He scratched his bald head and smiled awkwardly at Herbert: "Ahem, don't kill, don't kill, but don't kill innocent people."

Grand Duke Silver Wing is the biological father of the young man in front of him.

Even if it means killing, he can't do it himself!
Herbert shook his head, signaling the presiding judge not to worry about it, and bowed to the Knight Commander.

"Your Excellency the Knight Commander."

"Well, you did a good job, very good."

Bishop Rusty Nail nodded, looking at Herbert with a satisfied look. Compared to the judge's unreasonable hostility towards the nobles, he, who was born into a noble family, knew better what kind of death those nobles deserved.

If we hang them all, there might be some innocent people, but if we hang every other person, there will definitely be some that slip through the net.

Every nobleman should find his own gallows.

Not only the two bishops, but almost all the monks in the monastery had a significantly improved opinion of Herbert after learning what happened in the Frost Crystal Kingdom.

It is no exaggeration to say that Herbert did many things that the Paladin had always wanted to do.

There were many monks who had been bullied by the nobles, and monks of noble birth knew better what the nobles had done.

No one thought that what Herbert did was too radical, and these conservatives even thought that he was a little conservative.

"You did a great job. You are worthy of being a member of our Knights. You are much better than the guys in the Inquisition."

"Um!!?"

Upon hearing this, the chief judge's expression immediately changed, and he said angrily: "What are you talking about? Herbert is the elite of our court!"

"Oh, you know what I'm talking about?" The Knight Commander smiled coldly and said lightly: "You bunch of rubbish almost buried the talent!"

"You fart!"

"Ah!"

A war between the two bishops began.

After the two bishops began to quarrel mercilessly, Herbert tried to interrupt twice, but failed each time.

In the end, Herbert could only quietly leave the scene of the battle while they were not paying attention.

After leaving, Herbert looked back at the hall and couldn't help but sigh: "You are showing off in front of me, right? Ha, two old men."

"You two have such a good relationship!"

When Herbert returned to the ordination center, Valentina had fallen asleep as expected.

Also because she was familiar with Herbert's scent, she did not react when he appeared beside her and continued to sleep as usual.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep. All you do is sleep all day. Oh, how can you sleep at your age?"

Herbert shook his head, not feeling anything strange, turned around and pushed the door open to come to the Deep Water Prison.

He came to keep an appointment.

Before leaving, he made a promise to Freme that he would sing with her the first thing he did when he returned.

Now, he has returned as promised.

Herbert walked into the water prison, feeling the familiar fluctuations of water elements, and looked at the figure who had been waiting there for a long time.

"Fleming, I'm going back..."

But before he could finish, Herbert was stunned.

Herbert saw a scene he had never expected before!

At this moment, a pair of smooth, delicate and slender jade feet were trembling on the water.

Jade!
wrong……

leg!!?
That familiar yet somewhat strange figure was using its tail to support itself from behind, walking cautiously on the water!
Freme has evolved legs!

"Ok?"

Miss Siren seemed to have noticed something as well. She turned her head blankly, saw Herbert, and smiled with surprise.

"Herbert!"

then……

thump.

She fell into the water.
