我唾弃你的坟墓1

Early the next day Galos City was bustling and rowdy as many individuals made their way to the streets to try and catch a glimpse of Aron as he was being taken to the docking area.

Among these individuals were the former members of his faction who were still in disbelief after they received the news last night.

"It\'s really true..." Riya muttered as she stood alongside her friends trying to get a clear view of the situation.

"What can we do?" Another concerned voice asked but at this time Jagu and Jin also appeared on the scene.

The two didn\'t look particularly worried seeing as Aron wore a calm expression on his face. "Nothing you can do, if even Lady Uva couldn\'t end this matter then what can a commoner do? Just leave it to them." Jin advised but he too felt rather helpless in this scenario.

Meanwhile in the upper residential district, Claudia was hurriedly making her towards the scene as she had just received the news.

Ever since the whole breakdown of the Sovereign faction, she had isolated herself in her home. Even refusing to receive letters from her parents.

Despite the breakdown of the faction the deal concerning trade between the Komi Islands and Ettenheim was still in effect as Jagu told her so. She only needs to ready everything and the two could work out the details later.

After informing her family of this and asking they make preparations it was only natural they inquire more as to how she managed to achieve this feat but she sent no letters in reply.

"Claudia wait!" A concerned Xavier called from behind her in what was now an empty street as everyone had gone to observe what was happening. Despite him calling out to her Claudia continued to run with great worry on her face. "I need to see for myself!"

"You won\'t make it! All the carriages have been banned from operating so by the time you make it there they would have already left." Xavier chased after her while trying to explain his reasoning but she continued to run as if she couldn\'t hear him.

....

At this time however Aron along with the Galos upper echelons and emissaries had already arrived at the docking areas and were getting ready to set off.

Even now Aron looked completely calm and uttered no words. This made some emissaries and even professors quite angry but what could they do except abide by the laws especially with Lady Uva and Lady Rose personally standing close to him at all times, a variable many of them didn\'t expect.

In the end they could only go along with everything as the airships took off for the city of Vonstein.

The Journey was rather uneventful and took six days to complete before they arrived at the city\'s docking area.

Vonstein was a military type of city hence its location being a high mountain range which gave it a geographical advantage.

This mountain range acted as a sort of natural boarder as one would first have to pass this to enter the Ettenheim\'s upper class region which housed all the great families and was home to the capital.

Around the city of Vonstein were numerous forts and camps with thousands of soldiers. Airships patrolled it\'s skies and numerous glyphs covered the natural terrain of the mountain range, alerting the forces should any individual try to break past illegally.

All these factors contributed to why Vonstein City held the greatest defense in all of Ettenheim.

,m It now made sense to Lady Rose why they insisted on holding the trial there. Naturally since it was difficult to enter then it was just as difficult to escape. \'Seems we have no option but to win this trial.\' Lady Rose thought as she stood on the deck of a Galos City airship and observed the landscape below.

The City of Vonstein itself had many of it\'s buildings bearing the color pattern of the Vonstein family crest which was black and silver.

Numerous flags of all sizes could be seen hanging over the city walls and even some buildings giving a sort of united aura and feel to the city.

"The airships shall be docking soon!" A servant went around tingling a small bell and repeating this announcement.

Aron who was currently locked up in a cell on the lower floor also heard this sound clearly and showed a small smile. "Seems we\'ve arrived."

Lady Uva stood right outside his cell and nodded at his words. "Yes, please rest assured that I will personally see to it that the truth is uncovered." She said seriously with a hint of anger in her voice. "I\'ll trust in your words then." Aron answered shortly just as two individuals came downstairs to retrieve him.

"We\'ll be escorting you out." They bowed towards Lady Uva and she let them pass her to open the cell and lead Aron out.

...

Once the airship docked and they began to descend the platform, they noticed quite a number of soldiers sporting black and silver armor surround the airship.

They did the same to the other airships belonging to Galos Academy but in smaller numbers.

"What is the meaning behind this?" Lady Uva furrowed her brows towards this display and immediately inquired about it. Lord Treiss who was descending the platform beside her didn\'t seem at all surprised by what was happening. "Considering the gravity of the situation, he will be treated as all suspects are prior to their trial according to Ettenheim laws." He explained but Lady Uva didn\'t look at all in agreement with this.

"So they are here to take him into custody yes?" Lady Rose who was a bit further ahead quickly understood the situation and perhaps the implications behind it.

Since they were no longer in the Galos region they had to abide by Ettenheim\'s laws. Lord Treiss nodded at Lady Rose\'s inquiry and as she predicted once they descended the platform they were handed a decree that granted the soldiers permission to hold Aron in custody until the day of trial.

"We aren\'t even allowed to visit? This cannot be right." Upon reading the piece of parchment handed over to her, Lady Uva looked even more displeased and could obviously see they were trying to keep Aron isolated from them.

Unlike Lady Uva who kept her thoughts to herself, Lady Rose clearly stated her thoughts. "They are trying to keep him from us, perhaps to try and force information out of him. This is quite obviously the case." She suggested bringing frowns to the faces of the surrounding professors and inquisitors who came with them.

Lady Uva of course thought of this as well but arguing at the moment would get her nowhere. "Fine then, but do tell your superiors that should anything happen to our Harbinger..." Lady Uva turned to the uniformly dressed armored individuals and warned seriously.

She didn\'t give off any mana fluctuations and just spoke in a regular tone but those who observed couldn\'t help but be reminded that she was considered the most powerful existence in Pesia despite her feeble and gentle appearance.

Aron\'s chains clang heavily as he was escorted down the platform and towards the armored men waiting for him. He quickly scanned the present scene without uttering a word but instead keeping his thoughts to himself.

...

After being handed over to Vonstein\'s military, Aron was lead to a detention center where he would stay until the day of the trial.

The process of taking him there however was done in such a manner that was obviously to belittle him. Walking in chains while numerous aristocrats who lived in the city observed him and cast comments of mockery.

\'They waste no opportunities to shame commoners whilst trying to promote their own people\'s feeling of superiority. They\'ll all pay…\' Aron expected as much upon arriving. Those responsible for attending to Lady Uva and the others only gave excuse after excuse to explain the actions being taken.

The carriages are under maintenance... Aron\'s arrival must have been leaked... People have a right to say their thoughts.

The excuses made were quite poor and Lady Uva felt she was being made a fool of. It was only after Lady Rose intervened that she was able to focus on the bigger picture.

"Proving his innocence comes before anything else, however after that..."

Lady Uva could only reluctantly agree with Lady Rose\'s words before the two went their separate ways. Not surprisingly each of them was assigned a servant to assist them with anything they might need during their stay.

This however was simply just a way to monitor and observe the actions of the academy officials. After all knowing their movements played a great factor in what they could and could not do with Aron.

...

The detention center was a large rectangular building made of brick and marble that stood at a height of over twenty meters. The strangest thing however was that it didn\'t look at all like somewhere one would keep prisoners due to its luxurious outer appearance.

It wasn\'t until Aron actually entered the premises that he understood just why it looked like this. \'Underground...\'

Although Aron couldn\'t sense mana he hadn\'t been in direct contact with he was still able to feel mana fluctuations emanating from below the detention center. The only other way such fluctuations would come about is if a large group of individuals where gathered in an enclosed space for long amounts of time.

"Hey, who said you could stop?" One of the armored guards who were known as Encaptors saw Aron pause and proceeded to try and shove him. However the disparity in strength was far too large and Aron didn\'t move at all.

He turned his head to the individual who performed this action and cast him a cold glance before proceeding to walk without uttering a word.

\'Damn commoner... just you wait for the young Lord to arrive.\' The encaptor thought while showing a sinister grin under his helm.
