Chapter 31 Penalty

Ke Wen regarded the many eyes on him as nothing but air.

He was also looking at the 'space bag' at this time, and an idea immediately came to his mind.

Therefore, he did not make the introduction as everyone expected, but looked at the financial officer who looked gloomy: "I'm sorry everyone, I think it's better to wrap up the previous matters first."

"you……"

Anduin Lothar was about to point at Corwin and say something, but his arm was suppressed by King Wrynn who raised his hand first.

King Wrynn stopped his friend, and then nodded to Coven: "Okay, young man, can you tell us about this pocket afterwards?"

"Of course." Kewen nodded.

King Wrynn showed a satisfied and expectant smile, lowered his head to look at the debris on the ground at his feet, and then walked back to the throne and sat down.

After sitting down, King Wrynn finally showed an expression befitting his status.

His face was expressionless, and he exuded an oppressive aura.

He stared at the financial officer and said calmly: "I remember every noble and every official in the kingdom, Nabil Munster, so do you have anything to say?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...I..."

Nabil Munster, the treasurer, finally tasted the bitter fruit of his own doing. When facing King Wrynn, he was completely speechless.

One misstep turned into eternal hatred. In the past, I was always fine with little or no greed, but I didn’t expect that I was completely stumbled by this incident...

King Wrynn saw that the other party had no defense, so he did not want to waste time and directly pronounced: "Nabil Munster, I will take back your identity as financial officer."

"Yes... thank you, His Majesty the King..."

Nabil Munster showed a dejected expression and bowed with a wry smile.

However, after he lowered his head to avoid everyone's sight, a look of joy suddenly appeared in his eyes.

He secretly cheered in his heart. He was glad that there was no more punishment on him, not even a fine. It seemed that the king still took care of him.

That's right, after all, he is a noble, and he is not comparable to those mud-legged adventurers like Ke Wen.

Thinking of this, the corners of Nabil Munster's mouth couldn't help but want to curl up, but he tried hard to suppress it.

But he laughed too early.

Because King Wrynn's voice sounded again: "Soldier, put him in prison, and then continue the relevant investigation! I want to know how much he has embezzled in total during his years as a financial officer."

"yes!"

The two guards responded and at the same time reached out and grabbed Nabil Munster's arms.

Nabil Munster was dumbfounded.

He looked up at King Wrynn in shock. When he was dragged back by the guards, he finally came to his senses and screamed quickly: "No - Your Majesty the King, please be merciful! I am a noble! I apply to the nobles."

Parliament appeal! Wait, don’t drag me! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I am willing to donate the fine! Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."

King Wrynn felt that the other party was too noisy, frowned slightly, and raised his hand to wave away.

Seeing this, the two soldiers completely lost their strength and used force at the same time to drag the struggling Nabil Munster out of the room.

The sound of screaming and crying gradually faded away until it was no longer heard. Then King Wrynn sighed slightly, feeling low that there were such officials in the kingdom.

However, he quickly thought of important matters, so he adjusted his mood and said to Ke Wen: "How? Young man, does this punishment make you feel fair?"

Ke Wen nodded: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"snort……"

Anduin Lothar sneered lightly, with a malicious look on his face: "Boy, don't forget, he is not the only person in charge of this chaos. Next, is it your turn to accept it?"

A fair trial?"

"Your Majesty the King."

Corwin did not pay attention to Anduin Lothar, but stood up from his seat, saluted King Wrynn with a slight caress on his chest, and then said: "Thank you for your justice. In this case, we will not quibble about our faults."

"Although our team did not cause any casualties in this chaos, it still constituted a bad situation that disturbed the people."

"For this, we are willing to accept punishment."

"I am willing to make several 'space bags' for Your Majesty as compensation for the losses the kingdom has suffered during this chaos."

"I don't know..." Ke Wen looked at King Wrynn with sincere eyes: "What do you think?"

Everyone was stunned, and many people couldn't turn their heads for a while.

Because what Coven said not only changed many concepts, he also blocked the definition of this chaos.

He reminded that there were no casualties, and then changed the concept of the chaotic scene into disturbing the public.

Moreover, he had just noticed King Wrynn's emphasis on the 'space bag', so he took advantage of the situation and proposed a 'space bag' as compensation.

He firmly believed that King Wrynn would be tempted by the 'space bag'.

And things developed exactly as Kewen planned.

King Wrynn was very moved.

In his mind, he instantly imagined many scenes, many scenes in which the 'space bag' provided perfect assistance to the army.

But as a politician, how could King Wrynn fail to hear Coven's sneaky ideas?

But he was completely caught again.

Angry and amused, King Wrynn looked at Kewen and hesitated several times.

In the end, he could only shake his head with a smile, put his hand on his forehead, and chuckled as if he was admitting defeat: "Okay, young man, I have been convinced by you."

"hehe……"

Unable to help but chuckle, King Wrynn raised his finger and pointed at Kewen, and said helplessly: "Then I pronounce the verdict, you guys uh..."

"Kevin Quinn."

Kewen smiled and said the name, and pointed to three teammates: "Garken Garan, Natalie Baghdadi, and Tager."

"good."

King Wrynn nodded: "I declare that the chaos caused by the above four people, Kewen Quinn, Galkan Garan, Natalie Baghdadi, and Tager, is excusable. I use the king's

I will pardon your prison sentence, but you must use the 'space bag' as compensation to the kingdom."

"His Majesty?"

Anduin Lothar was a little dissatisfied. He felt that this sentence was a bit light. After all, Coven's actions severely damaged the prestige of the kingdom.

King Wrynn understood what Anduin Lothar meant, but he valued the 'space bag' too much, so he could only shake his head slightly to indicate that the matter was over.

When Anduin Lothar saw this, he could only step back a little depressed...

Next, King Wrynn did not ask Cowen to give him the 'space bag' immediately, but asked Cowen questions with great interest.

He was very interested in the experiences that Ke Wen compiled. After all, even he, the king, had only heard of the existence of the 'Western Continent'.

He knew nothing about the place beyond the continent at the foot of the kingdom.

Perhaps out of curiosity, or perhaps wanting to hear more information, King Wrynn temporarily put aside other matters and continued to communicate with Kewen.



This exchange continued until it was almost dinner time.

Although King Wrynn was very kind, he was not so friendly to the people that he lowered his status and invited Coven and others to have dinner with him.

Therefore, although the exchange with Kewen was very pleasant, King Wrynn still controlled his emotions and announced that the exchange was over.

King Wrynn left all subsequent matters to Anduin Lothar to handle.

With the respectful farewell from everyone, King Wrynn left with his queen.

The meeting hall became silent.

Anduin Lothar stared at Corwin, who was constantly making him frustrated. He felt that Corwin was annoying, but he also had nothing to do with Corwin.

Kewen once again showed a look of disgust, and he didn't even look at Anduin Lothar seriously.

So in the eyes of other people, Coven and Anduin Lothar were like two children who were at odds, acting childishly in a funny way.

Finally, Anduin Lothar's stomach made a growling sound, finally breaking the atmosphere.

Under Ke Wen's even more disgusted look, Anduin Lothar said somewhat depressedly: "You... follow me to the military camp, and after handing over the 'space bag', leave Stormwind City!"

Ke Wen turned around and left. As he walked outside the castle, he said, "Forget it for today. We need to find a place to stay overnight in the city first. We will talk about the space bag tomorrow."

Anduin Lothar frowned and shouted dissatisfied: "What is your attitude! Can the punishment on you be postponed?"

Ke Wen said quietly without looking back: "I am hungry and exhausted. If I make a 'space bag' now, the result will definitely be a failure, so we will talk about it tomorrow."

After saying that, Ke Wen greeted the restrained Galken trio again, and then quickened his pace to leave.

Anduin Lothar once again had no way to deal with Corwin, so he could only secretly order a soldier in anger: "Bring someone to me to keep an eye on them!"

"yes!"



On the other side, Ke Wen and others quickly walked out of the castle, but two figures suddenly jumped out and blocked their steps.

The visitors were the two old mages, one with a bald head and a long beard, the other with a bald forehead.

The person who had communicated with Ke Wen was the bald old mage.

At this time, they stopped Ke Wen and others, and then the balding old mage said impatiently: "You are finally out! Please wait!"

"Is there a problem?"

Ke Wen was stunned. Listening to the other party's tone, had he been waiting for him at the gate of the palace until now?

Facing Ke Wen's inquiry, the old mage quickly raised his hand and pointed to a tall tower not far away: "Over there! That's our mage tower. Young man, can we invite you to sit there?"

Hearing this, Ke Wen already had a guess in his mind. It was estimated that these two old mages were interested in his magic, and their curiosity for knowledge broke out...
