The Sponsored Heroines Are Coming for Me Chapter 62

Thats how it happened.

Sharon Pierce finished her testimony.

In summary, all four female students rejected Ians confession, and they all read the threatening letter left by Ian.

Clang

As if waiting for her testimony to end, Professor Todd Cam slamd the table and exclaid.

Is this acceptable in an Academy of sacred learning? S*icide threats just because they didnt accept a confession! This is why young people these days Lets expel him imdiately!

Every ti Professor Todd Cam shouted, spit flew, but Sharon calmly held her position at the witness stand.

Her composed attitude added credibility to her words.

Moreover, the weight of the testimony from a Pierce family mber differed from that of ordinary students.

After she stepped down, opinions were naturally expressed.

It seems trustworthy.

Professor Todd Cam has a point. He is indeed soone with clear reasoning.

So professors nodded, and there were even those who took the opportunity to flatter.

It was well-known that he held influence in the Raymond family.

Violet frowned at the scene.

Everyone, calm down. Except for the letter, isnt everything else circumstantial evidence?

Professor Todd Cam raised his temperature on his toad-like face.

Professor Violet! All four cadets gave the sa testimony in the preliminary hearing! Why do they say different things after hearing it together?

Theres no physical evidence.

Theres consistency in the testimony! And, more importantly, its about the victims feelings, isnt it? Feelings! Emilia Raymond, Sharon Pierce, Saint Candidate Aria, Lina Rosewellall of them are promising students, arent they? Those kids are suffering like that, and you speak so coldly!

Was he appealing to emotions rather than logic?

Professor Todds opinion is correct. If we show leniency, it wont end well when the reporters start asking questions.

We need to decisively cut ties.

From the beginning, Ians reputation wasnt that great.

It wasnt just not great. It was the worst. The absolute worst.

A back-and-forth exchange among Professor Todd Cams group.

Violet sighed lightly as she watched them.

Then she intervened.

Wait a mont. Professor Suzy Dismal has sothing to say. Professor? Please speak up.

Uh .

Feel free to speak.

During the last dian House attack, Student Ians help was significant. He provided information about the blue mushroom spores in advance, allowing us to prepare the antidote to so extent.

Whats the conclusion?

In my opinion, Student Ian Blackangers is not entirely in the wrong? Saying it like that might be unreasonable.

Clinical Magical Pharmacology Professor Suzy Dismal.

As soon as her story ended, Violet grinned.

Now, isnt it a bit too tense based on circumstances alone? It might be better to consider evidence-based on the disciplinary committee regulations even at this point.

So professors, leaning towards neutrality, nodded at Violets words.

Hmm Co to think of it, didnt he also not receive a comndation during the last ceremony?

Reflection might be possible, but maybe his inherent nature is correct.

Todd Cams face contorted in an instant.

Those b*tches!

Why were they making such a fuss over sothing insignificant?

But there was no need to worry too much.

Information had already co from the Raymond family.

It was ntioned that there was a discussion with Lina Rosewell in advance.

Originally, only Sharon Pierce was planned to testify, but just in case, Lina Rosewells testimony was also prepared.

In the end, whether this way or that way, the Disciplinary Committee followed the flow and montum.

Todd Cam, having made his calculations, once again slamd the table.

Clang!

His fat neck shook with the impact.

Well then, lets call Student Lina Rosewell as well. Since she was able to attend as a witness today.

Unless theres evidence, its aningless

Are you going to ignore the voice of the victim? The Disciplinary Committee is for the victims. Student Lina Rosewell. Please co in.

Seeing Lina Rosewell enter as the door opened, Professor Todd Cam chuckled inwardly.

Money is rolling in on its own.

If he handled this matter properly, the amount of gold coins he would receive from the Raymond family would be substantial.

But that was not all. With Raymonds support alone, reaching higher positions in Lichten would also be possible.

I am Lina Rosewell.

He glanced at Lina Rosewell.

Her b*****s may not be large; it seems shes been losing weight here and there.

Professor Todd Cam quenched his appetite.

With a sly smile, he opened his mouth with an oily voice.

S*icide threats, it must have been a difficult mory to overco to co forward with testimony. It might be a painful mory for the students, but could you please describe your feelings at that ti in detail?

Lina Rosewells testimony.

She, known for her endless friendliness, could completely dominate the atmosphere of this disciplinary committee if she shed tears.

Evidence? How amusing.

Just like this. Confirm Ians disciplinary action, receive the money.

As Todd Cams lips curled up, Lina spoke.

I dont believe Student Ian did such a thing.

Really. It must have been difficult if you experienced such an event No, what?

I believe Student Ian is being falsely accused.

What are you talking about! Clearly, even during the pre-hearing

There was a misunderstanding at that ti. I apologize for the incorrect testimony, but it was a case that was difficult to judge rationally. The contents of the will were shocking. Moreover, at that ti, there was pressure from other victims Well, now Im not sure if theyre victims, but there was pressure on us.

What was she talking about?

Wait a mont.

He had planned to use Lina Rosewells detailed testimony to drive the point ho emotionally.

But what was she saying?

She didnt think Ian would do such a thing?

She feels he might have been falsely accused?

The story was different.

Todd Cam began to break into a cold sweat.

Um Wait

But Violet Professor didnt miss the opportunity and interrupted.

A false accusation There seems to be a need to clarify this part a bit. Isnt this a completely new testimony?

The atmosphere of the committee rapidly changed.

Even though Todd Cam tried to speak.

Well Just a mont.

What do you have to say?

No, its not that

He couldnt co up with a suitable remark.

Taking advantage of his hesitation, Violet spoke up.

Now it seems like its ti to hear Ians testimony. Please call Ian.

A shady area in the Disciplinary Committees observation room.

Creak

Emilia Raymond was grinding her teeth.

That useless human.

Seeing the pathetic figure of Professor Todd Cam, Emilia Raymond shook her head.

She hadnt expected Lina Rosewells betrayal But there was nothing difficult to handle in that situation.

If youre going to stumble over receiving a recent disciplinary action, then just do it.

Why couldnt she do such an easy thing?

Emilia felt a sense of nausea at Todd Cams toad-like face.

This is why you should spend money wisely when you spend it.

If only she could acquire a more useful professor.

She simply kept a low profile during this committee session because there were many eyes watching from the outside.

When even the bishop of the church ca out, she was a bit surprised.

Well, as long as Pierces side is sincere, it should be fine.

She glanced at the journalist walking out of the observation room.

Ian entered abruptly.

Kwaaaaang!

And right behind him, the door to the eting room was slamd open.

A sudden rudeness.

It was natural for everyones attention to turn to the door.

What in the world Who are you!

While so professors were getting angry

The Crimson Fla Knights?

On the contrary, professors who prioritized substance recognized the uninvited guest.

Although Lichten Academy may have seed like an independent institution at a glance, it was ultimately an Academy within the Empires sphere of influence. The Crimson Fla Order, one of the two major knight orders serving the Emperor. Among them, knights with significant responsibilities were beings that differed significantly from ordinary professors at the Academy.

A few professors quickly assessed the situation.

Amidst your busy schedule, youve co all the way here. May I ask what brings you here?

So professors seed to be busy getting angry, but others didnt show it.

No good could co of challenging Imperial authority.

I am here to serve as Miss Sharon Pierces guardian.

A brief pause as the knight, Aran, caught her breath.

A loud sound erupted from her lips.

Threatening s*icide to the Pierce family? And you intend to let it slide? Are you all insane?

Aran Alteach, with eyes filled with madness and contempt, looked around at the professors.

Each professor who t her gaze flinched.

However, a courageous professor cautiously spoke up among them.

Just looking at it, there are conflicting testimonies, and theres no clear evidence.

What? Evidence? Hey, Professor there.

No. Just calm down for a mont.

Still, I thought Id watch over this prestigious academy, but this isnt right. Does the na Pierce an nothing to you so easily?

Of course, thats true, but this is an academy with a clear extraterritorial jurisdiction

She pulled sothing out from her bosom.

A badge indicating the authority for imdiate judgnt.

Silence fell in the eting room.

If this incident is properly handled, it could be nothing.

She stepped into the center of the room.

But if not.

Then, looking at each professor, she spoke each word carefully.

You should be prepared for what youre doing.

Silence enveloped the space.

In the midst of it, Ian was rolling his head.

Though he ca in with Aran, he seed overshadowed, present but unremarkable.

Aran overwheld the eting room with her montum.

However, there was a clear dissatisfaction with her presence, even though she hadnt stepped forward.

It might be good to break the atmosphere a bit and go in.

Should I do it myself?

Just as Ian was about to speak.

Clunk!

Once again, the door opened.

Is this the level of the Disciplinary Committee of Lichten Academy?

Creak, creak.

With a lively sound of footsteps, soone walked in.

Who dares to

Aran Alteach was about to retort with arrogance, but she stopped on the spot.

What a ss. Is this almost like a street brawl? Dont nobles behave like this? Its fun. Its like a cheap play.

P-Princess Asteria? How did you end up here?

She bowed, showing respect.

A slight disturbance erupted in the eting room.

-P-Princess?

Princess Asteria chuckled lightly.

Oh, right. I ca to enroll in Lichten Academy. I ca down for registration and decided to check things out. I love courtroom plays.

One of the professors spoke up.

Princess, were currently in the midst of the Disciplinary Committee, so it might be a bit awkward unless youre involved. If you want to watch, theres a separate way

Turning her head towards the professor, Princess Asteria gave a playful smile.

Oh, I didnt know how to do that. Arent I famous? The Third Princess Asteria, known for being foolish. Oh, right. Didnt you just point that out, Professor?

N-No, its not like that! I didnt an to insult the royal family. I-I apologize!

No, whether its true or not, and since its botherso, an apology is enough. Anyway, it looked like it would be fun, so I ca to see.

Swish. Princess Asteria extended her hand.

More than that, is it proper to judge the situation by the volu of the voice? Its noisy and has no substance. Isnt the primary focus in court supposed to be the battle of truth?

Silence among the committee mbers.

The princess then turned to Ian.

And I think youre a suspect, but dont you have any evidence? In plays, when soone says, Objection! its cool and all. Do you have evidence?

Standing there silently, Ian finally spoke.

Ive prepared the evidence to submit.

What is it?

A portion of the will that the victim claims I wrote, and SIlvia Laurent as a witness and a handwriting expert vouched for by her.

Hmm?

Smirking, Princess Asteria laughed.

Now it feels a bit more like a trial. Ill watch from above then.

Swiftly turning around, the Princess glanced at Ian.

In that mont when their eyes t, one of her eyelids blinked and then opened wide.
