I really can't control myself

The host seemed to have a prop on his hand that could amplify the sound. It was probably a magic prop similar to a microphone, so the audience heard clearly what Linton said just now, but they didn't understand Linton's pulse yet. I just think this young man is quite interesting. When they heard that Linton was about to speak, they also wanted to hear what Linton had to say.

The host was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, it seemed that it was not against his principles, so he handed the props to Linton.

"Ahem..." Linton cleared his throat, held the magic microphone, and said: "Everyone, this is Linton Meroway. He comes from the Meroway family that everyone has never heard of. This is a family in the southern part of the empire. From the perspective of the imperial capital, a small family is nothing."

The audience looked confused. Why did Linton say this?

"Our family was originally a family that had nothing to do with the world. We have always lived a peaceful life in the south. Look at me, look at my nephew Gasein, do we look like bad people? Please look at the dock, this He’s my nephew, he looks stupid, do you think he’s a conspirator?”

"You look so stupid!" Garsain couldn't help it in the dock.

"Look at me again, maybe you don't know me. I am a good person, and I have a dream, which is to use magic to bring smiles to everyone..."

"Can you TN stop talking nonsense and hurry up and finish the fight?" Garsain couldn't help shouting, mainly because what Linton said was complete nonsense. That kind of magic will not bring smiles at all, okay? .

"But... a family like ours that was originally independent of the world has experienced great changes in this month." Linton suddenly changed his tone, "You may not know that after the death of my father, Baron Meloway, My eldest brother, my second brother, and my eldest brother's two sons were all assassinated within this month. I myself was attacked two or three times by assassins. My nephew, as soon as he arrived in the imperial capital, was immediately sentenced to death. Now you are still being tried by combat here, you are all sensible people, do you think this is a coincidence?"

"What?" The auditorium suddenly became chaotic, and people were talking a lot. Yes, everyone knew that this couldn't be a coincidence. Someone seemed to be targeting the Meloway family, and they wanted to destroy their whole family.

Garsain was also stunned for a moment. He suddenly understood what Linton was doing. He was putting pressure on him. At present, their murderer has not yet surfaced. Everyone knows about Linton's troubles, and the pressure from the public will make the authorities step up their efforts to solve the case.

"Knight Bayar, how much do you know about the matter I'm talking about?" Linton suddenly said to Bayar across from him, "You should have at least read my information. Regarding my family, do you think it is a coincidence? ?"

"I've seen it, and I think someone is indeed targeting your family." Bayar thought for a while and said.

"Then... who do you think it is?" Linton said, "The person who specially invited you here..."

"No one asked me to come," Bayar said.

"Really? In other words, when you were traveling, you suddenly had an idea and thought that there was someone in the imperial capital who needed to be judged, and then you came back, right?" Linton said, "Mr. Bayard, honesty is the responsibility of a knight. One of the virtues, who invited you here?"

"You...the person who invited me here is Duke Luo Yan, but he doesn't..."

"Are you sure?" Linton asked directly, "The four lives of my family are here, and your eloquent words may set the tone for this matter. I hope you can say it fairly at this time, you really Do you think Duke Luo Yan who invited you here is not suspicious at all?"

"..." Bayar fell silent. Yes, he couldn't answer Linton's question because he wasn't sure.

Bayar's silence made his answer clear to everyone. Therefore, the public is still easy to deceive. When you say this, everyone's attention immediately turns to Linton's side, and their family suddenly becomes a victim. This is definitely a conspiracy.

Of course, Linton actually didn't know whether Duke Luo Yan was the mastermind behind the scenes. He really wanted to find the person who assassinated them. He couldn't let them keep causing trouble there. The accounts still had to be settled. Give him some pressure. The people above helped him find the murderer. On the other hand, Duke Luo Yan may not necessarily be the mastermind, but he jumped out of nowhere to cause trouble for him. Linton also took note of this. He likes to jump, right? Then he will take the blame on you. If he is really not the mastermind, , it can only help find the murderer and prove his innocence, so he has more people to find him.

Another point is the direction of public opinion. Linton was indeed helping Garsain. He said this mainly because he wanted Garsain to be framed after being released from prison, rather than a criminal who escaped punishment. Although trial by combat can lead to legal innocence, there are some things that do not mean that you are not a criminal if the law cannot convict you. So now Linton claims to be a good person, and he is indeed very confident in what he says.

At this point, the scene was a little chaotic, and people were talking a lot. However, at this moment, a man suddenly stood up, making the chaotic people quiet again. The person who stood up was the Emperor of the Empire, His Majesty Wigley.

"Linton Merloway." Wigley said, and his voice also spread throughout the entire venue. There should be similar magic props there, "I already know about your family's affairs. In the name of the Emperor of the Empire, I I promise you, no matter what the outcome of this trial by combat is, I will investigate this matter clearly and give your family an explanation. No matter who the murderer is or what his identity is, he will be judged justly."

"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor." When the goal was reached, Linton also gave up. The emperor's guarantee also made Garsain and the others safer. If something happened to the Meloway family again at this time, it would be a slap in the emperor's face. This was of course one of Linton's purposes.

After hearing Emperor Wigley's words, the people also became quiet. They still trusted the emperor very much. However, there are still changes. There are obviously fewer people shouting Bayar's name before, because public opinion is biased towards Linton, and Bayal has become a bit like an accomplice of the murderer. This makes all the people People's favorability towards him plummeted.

Bayar also felt this meaning, and felt that his visit this time was a disaster, and he really caused SAO.

"Anyway, can we start now?" The host here also waited for a long time to check the situation and finally came out and asked.

"Let's get started." Linton looked at Bayar in front of him, whose expression had changed a little. "Uncle, I think you don't look very good today. Are you sick? It wouldn't be good if you suddenly collapsed..."

"I'm not sick, let's get started." Bayar said with a frown.

"Really? Then don't fall down at the beginning." Linton said.

"Start." Bayar said directly to the host next to him.

"Then, I declare that the trial by combat... begins!" The host nodded, then waved his hand and said.

As soon as Bayar heard the sound of "ding", he drew his sword directly, and then looked directly at Linton in front of him. However, the first thing he noticed was Linton's eyes that had turned red.

"Tsukuyomi!"

There was a "bang" sound, which was the sound of Bayar standing on one knee. Yes, under the surprised eyes of the entire audience, Golden Phoenix Flower Knight Bayar fell to his knees just one second after the start of the match.

"What? What happened?"

"What happened to Knight Bayar? Did he suddenly fall down?"

The audience didn't know what happened, but of course there were a few who knew, such as Princess Yalan.

"Sure enough, I did it anyway." Princess Yalan held her forehead again, feeling that Linton was unreliable. She was really worried about what would come, and told him not to use it. It was really just the beginning. Are you really completely disobedient?

"What happened? Why did Bayal fall?" Princess Fulla next to her also asked strangely.

"I guess you are... feeling ill?" Princess Yalan said.

"No, it has something to do with that kid." Leafa next to her suddenly became serious, "Although I didn't feel any magic fluctuations, but... it was definitely done by that kid."

Princess Yalan is very anxious. Master has indeed noticed it. How can I explain this?

At this time on the court, Linton also directly spread his hands and said to the host next to him: "It's seconds. If you have anything to say, end it quickly."

"This... Lord Bayar probably hasn't..."

"Plop", before the host finished speaking, Bayar fell directly to the ground. The host looked at Linton speechlessly. He thought that Bayal and Linton said the same thing. I was sick and weak for a while, but then I really fell down? How could he be so sick? I couldn't see it at all just now.

Although I don't know what happened, it is a fact that Bayar fell to the ground now. If this is the case, then he can only act in accordance with the regulations.

"End of the competition..." The host raised his hand, but just when he was about to say the last word, there was a sudden "buzz" sound, and the atmosphere around him suddenly changed, and a huge sense of pressure came from the stage. appeared and interrupted the host abruptly.

"Look!" At this time, the audience on the stage also exclaimed. Bayar, who had fallen to the ground, suddenly emitted a dazzling green light. This was not a simple fighting spirit, but a kind of light.

"What?" Seeing this, several people in the royal stands stood up directly. They didn't understand what happened when Bayar fell before and didn't react, but now, they were really shocked.

"What's going on? Master?" Princess Yalan also asked strangely to Leafa who was getting up next to her.

"The Glory of the Holy Level... Bayar has been promoted to the Holy Level." Leafa said.
