Rick asked Arjun through mental connection, "Boss! What exactly the City Lord is trying to accomplish here?"
Arjun and Rick were sitting in the commoners place. Arjun replied, "I don't know."
"Did he see the recording crystal last night?" , Rick asked. His question has a trace of worry behind it.
"I don't know." , Arjun said, "He should have seen it by now. We took all the necessary precautions."
"But if something unexpected happened?" , Rick asked.
Arjun sighed and said, "If that is the case, then our family has to spend a little in the prison cell. But they won't die. I am sure about it. If City Lord wanted to klill them, then they would have been dead by now. He wouldn't have talked all this nonsense."
"Then why do you think he is doing all this rubbish?" , Rick asked a little disappointed with Ferlin's actions.
"We will know soon." , Arjun said, "Wait patiently and see."
The Pope of the Church of Deception frowned. This is something he did not expect. But the way the City Lord spoke, It made him think that the city Lord's deception is going towards the release of the captives. And this raised alarm in the City Lord's heart. His heartbeat started to get louder.
At that time The pope of the Church of war stood up and spoke, "My Lord! I think your reasoning is logical. One should not punish other person for committing no crime. And even if you suspects someone without having a concrete proof, then also you should not punish them. You may let hundred seniors go. That's nothing. But you should not punish even one innocent. If you punish even one innocent without any ironclad proof, then it is an unforgivable crime."
"That's right!" , Pope of the Church of Thief said, "I agree. You may pet hundred sinners go. But you should not let even a single innocent get punished. It's a grave sin which is totally unforgivable."
"That's right!" , Pope of the Church of Deception said, "But What if they are not truly innocent? What if they are truly the sinners?"
The other Popes frowned once again. The way things are going on with the Church of Deception is really strange. Their statement and their timing of arrival is truly making them believe that they had some kind of with the death of the son of the City Lord.
City Lord indifferently said, "There is only one way to know the truth. We cannot judge the truth based on a little information. I didn't ask all this week. So I'm going to ask the captives in front of all of you."
City lad then turned towards Jimmy and others and said, "If you have anything to say in your defence, please say it. n.o.body will object you now."
Jimmy confidently came forward and spoke, "Thank you for your concern City Lord. Thank you very much for this opportunity you gave us to prove our innocence. And we won't let you down."
Jimmy took a deep breath and continued, "First of all, we didn't kill your son. Your son was killed by an arrow. That means the killer is an archer. We are the natives of a small and poor realm known as the Life Realm. We came here in order to move forward in the journey of cultivation. Because the spiritual energy in the Life Realm is so thin that you could consider yourself great if you reach the first origin stage. That's how horrible the situation in the Life Realm is. So we came to an agreement and we decided to go to a better place. We wanted to go to a place where cultivation is very suitable."
Jimmy continued, "But at the same time we know that we lack in the battle experience. So with the poor battle experience and at the same time with the weak cultivation base we know that we couldn't survive in the G.o.d Realm for long. So we cancelled the option for going to the G.o.d Realm. First we need a place where we can nurture our combat skills. So we chose to come to the War Realm."
Jimmy continued, "And when we came to the War Realm, it didn't even past 15 seconds before young master Feril approached us on his own. He started to ask us about our ident.i.ty and our residence and stuff like that. And we told him honestly who we are. And we came from. We were having a nice conversation."
Jimmy became serious as he continued, "It didn't even pa.s.s one minute since we set our foot on the War Realm, and Young Master Feril was killed right in front of our eyes. But what was strange is, even one minute hasn't pa.s.sed since young master's death and the great elder appeared out of nowhere. How coincidental, right?"

City Lord didn't speak. His facial expression was in different. No one could judge what exactly the City Lord was thinking.
But the Great Elder Jinx shouted, "So now you are trying to blame me? Young Master Feril's followers and friends themselves admitted that it was you people who killed Young Master. They are the best proof. And you are trying to s.h.i.+ft the blame on me? How cunning?"
Jimmy smiled. He said, "Then tell me. When those Young Master's followers were trying to tell the truth why did you probe them? You use the name of the City Lord and installed fear within their heart. You have forced them deliberately to put the blame on us. And those panicked youngsters put the blame on us without having a second thought."
Jinx smirked. He said, "You're very good at making up bulls.h.i.+t stories. You say that I deliberately made them to s.h.i.+ft the blame on you. If that is the case, then where is the proof? Show us the proof and then you speak."
Jimmy smiled and said, "You want proof? Fine then. I will show you the proof."
Jinx was stunned. But he didn't give it much thought. After all what kind of proof or seven days prisoner could provide against him? And that is also about the thing that happened on the day he was imprisoned. So jinx relaxed himself a bit. He knew that the situation hasn't gone out of the hands yet.
But then he found Jimmy take out a recording crystal from his pocket. Jinx started to feel nervous. Even though you knew that things might not go that weirdly, He still felt a little bit amount of fear.
