Chapter 283: General Lovecraft

Chapter 283 General Lovecraft

When Michael and I arrived at the Hall of Justice, I realized it was much more lively than I had imagined.

The hall was filled with whispers. Many people were gathered here, and everyone was talking as if they were all enthusiastically discussing today’s trial.

I looked at the table in front of me. It was already full. In the middle was the judge, and there were three seats on each side of the judge, making it a total of six people. Everyone had a name plaque with their names written on it. They were all officials of the Werewolf Court Committee. I saw them exchanging documents and occasionally talking in low voices.

On the right side of the entire court are a few rows of long stools. I assumed they were for the jury. They hadn’t entered yet.

I tugged on Michael’s sleeve and asked in confusion, “It’s just an early judgment. Why are there so many people?”

Michael’s brows furrowed as well. He scanned the entire court, but he didn’t answer me.

I noticed that Michael’s gaze was fixed on one person.

“Why is he here?” Michael mumbled. His voice was very soft, and I could barely hear him.

I didn’t have time to ask him who that person was when Michael had already strode over to that person. I quickly followed him.

It was a tall and well-built royal Lycan. He didn’t look young anymore, and the hair on his temples had been dyed white with time. However, he still stood tall and straight, like a straight javelin, with the determination of a soldier.

“I didn’t expect to see you here, General Lovecraft,” Michael said.

The man turned around, and when he saw Michael, he seemed surprised. Then, he saw me behind Michael, and a strange emotion flashed in his eyes. Although he quickly hid it and turned into a cold look, I still caught the anger in it.

Why did he hate me?

“I didn’t expect to see you here either, Your Highness.” General Lovecraft bowed to Michael and ignored my existence.

General Lovecraft looked around and then pointed in a direction. He said to Michael, “Your Highness if you want to watch the trial, your seat should be over there.

Michael’s face darkened as he heard what General Lovecraft said. “Are you telling me what to do?”

“I didn’t mean that.” General Lovecraft sighed. “Your Highness, I’m also very sorrowful over what’s happening. I hope you can understand the feelings of a father. This is not what I want to see. But the court has its own rules. You shouldn’t be here.”

Michael snorted coldly. “I hope you remember what you said. The court has its own rules. No one can manipulate them.”

“I’ve always remembered,” General Lovecraft said slowly.

Michael glared at General Lovecraft for a while, then took my hand and walked to the front, sitting on two tall armchairs. I saw a sign next to the chair with the words ‘Royal Guests’.

With one hand, Michael pulled me and placed me on his thigh. He played with my fingers one by one while his other hand leaned on the armrest. The anger in his eyes did not diminish.

“Who was that just now?” I asked softly.

Michael glanced at me and calmed down slightly. He said, “He is Joanna’s father.”

I pursed my lips tightly. I could already guess from their conversation, but my heart still couldn’t help but clench when I heard Michael confirm this.

I knew that Joanna’s parents had been trying their best to exonerate her these days.

I heard from Michael that they even asked the Lycan King for help. Fortunately, the werewolf court and the royal family’s power are independent, so the Lycan King couldn’t interfere too much.

Initially, the King controlled the power distribution of the royal Lycan family. However, with the rise of the werewolf court, the situation changed.

The werewolf court had the power to judge. They made laws and had the right to explain them. When they found a person guilty, even the Lycan King could not pardon that person. On the other hand, Lycan King had all the administrative power. He managed the country’s affairs and had an army. He held power.

The Lycan King and the werewolf court were prohibited from doing anything beyond their authority.

Therefore, generally speaking, the royal family would not attend court trials. On the one hand, few people dared directly violate the royal family’s rights and interests. The werewolf court even had special legislation to protect the privileges of the royal family over other Lycans and werewolves. On the other hand, the royal family members would also consciously avoid appearing on such occasions to prevent being impeached for favoritism and fraud.
