They were surprised by my answer.
Normally, when there was an accusation, one would say that they were not guilty or that they killed the other in self-defence, but I said Hearsay.
This shouldn't be how they thought that it would go. So the surprise on their faces and the constant mutterings.
"Hearsay, boy what do you an by that? We have the statent from the Death Seeker that you killed Dorian Halter", one of the old n spoke.
"Hmm, are you alright?" I asked in 'concern'.
"Why do you ask?" he asked back
"Because what you said sounded like Hearsay. You believed soone's word that I killed a student, and accusing of the cri but I see not a single shred of evidence", I said.
It made everyone in the room frown.
One of the old n slamd his hand on the table and stood up, raising his voice, "Death Seekers are soone who can see what happened just before the death of soone as long as they have the dead person's items. It is a known fact. How can you say that it's Hearsay?"
"You are accusing based on soone's words. That is what HEARSAY ans. Can't your brain understand that? oh, it looks like old age is catching up", I chuckled at the old man.
It infuriated him and he almost flew up to to strike down but the headmaster stopped .
"Stop it Orlen. This is an academy, where we nurture young minds, not kill them because they belittled you", the headmaster warned the old man.
Hmm, it looks like the headmaster has a head on his shoulders, which others lack.
"Haha, you dared to strike a student just because of a few words. I wonder how you survived this long with so many battles that happened in your lifeti or you never participated and sat at ho like a coward", I provoke the old man.
It infuriated the old man but before he could say anything the headmaster inserted himself.
"That's enough, both of you", he shouted.
"Mr. Frostwolf, Death Seekers are used by every law agency in the world to find out the culprits who might have committed the murder. It was sothing that was followed everywhere. As a noble descendant, you should be aware of this fact but why are you saying Hearsay?" the headmaster asked.
"Tell , headmaster, are there no corrupt kings, nobles, rchants...?"
"You don't need to answer. That's rhetoric. There would be good and evil, irrespective of their position or profession. You accused based on the words of one person. Can you gurantee that he wasn't bribed by soone?" I asked them, and they were stunned.
They couldn't say that they guarantee the results as I said before, Death Seekers can lie too if they were paid or sothing along the lines. There was no guarantee.
"Except for his words, do you have any shred of evidence that can say that I killed him?"
"Forget about his credibility. Let's say I killed him but do you know what caused to kill him?"
There was no answer either.
I knew that. As long as they accuse directly or indirectly, I would produce evidence of my 'innocence' and the guilt of the other party. It would be a big win for but now it is going to be a huge win for .
They started chatting and there was a lot of nodding among themselves. It looks like they were thinking that were quick to accuse him and had to search for the evidence.
"Haha, you are very funny. You want to look for evidence now, after accusing soone of murder, how hilarious? Don't need to suddenly stretch yourselves for sothing you don't do", I made a jibe at them.
Sure the academy is supporting the students as best as they can, and I respect them for that but that changed when they sent that asshole of a professor.
They should have known that this one hates nobles, yet they sent him. If not, I would have directly shown them the video when they accused . I wouldn't have dragged the matter for this long.
"What do you an?" one of the old n asked .
Instead of answering their questions, I pulled out a drive, "Do you have a video player?" I asked them back.
"Yes, we do", the headmaster said, "Thomas, set up the video player".
Thomas, the assistant to the headmaster, was setting up the player while the stupid professor extended his hand, indirectly asking for the drive.
I am not going to trust that idiot with such important evidence.
"No thanks. I know how to use it", I said as I placed the drive into the device and it started to play the videos, one by one.
The first one was of course the conflict between and Dorian for the resources. I edited out the fight, as I didn't want to see my skill. Though they knew that he burned, I am not showing the exact skill.
When these audiences saw that the fight was instigated by Dorian, they gasped.
They already knew that Dorian killed two of the students. Those two were noble children and they believed that those two provoked Dorian but now their assumptions might be wrong in those cases.
This is a disaster for them.
"Headmaster, now you can see that I killed him in self-defence. At that ti, it was either I kill him or he kills . So I chose sothing that was in my favour", I said to them.
"We can see that. It was wrong of us to accuse you without proper proof. My apologies", the headmaster bowed his head slightly.
"It's okay headmaster. There was no need to bow. I wasted too much ti here. I need to be so place else. Now if you excuse ", I said as I excused myself.
"Go, we'll take care of this", the headmaster spoke.
I was at the exit when I made a dramatic turnaround.
"Headmaster, before I go, I believe when you summoned here, that was because I am under investigation, correct?" I asked him with a smirk.
"Yes", he replied but his face says it all. He understood that sothing bad for the academy was going to co out.
"Huh, I thought it was a fish farr wives gathering", I spoke with a sarcastic voice.
"What do you an?"
"Well, it looks like soone leaked that I killed Dorian to the students, which I suppose shouldn't have happened while the investigation was in progress", I said with a smile.
"No, it should", the headmaster said with a frown.
It is a serious breach of code if the investigation information was leaked before it was completed. He already made a mistake about . So there was no way that he would let it slide.
The professor is in trouble I believe or probably it was William. I don't care which one it is but those two or this idiotic professor would be in trouble nonetheless. I should help with that a bit too.
"Oh, and professor, I recorded everything since I opened the door", I gave him a sinister smile, turned and left to exit the room.
The professor was horrified as soon as he heard speak. He tried to make an asshole in front of the leaders of the academy but now he beca the biggest buffoon.
It would be a miracle if he could keep his job after the shinanigan cos out. he would be out of the academy or at least from my life.
I was about to leave but turned around again, "Headmaster, I believe that you hired that Death Seeker to find the culprits that were responsible for the deaths of those five students, because of the rumours. Am I right?"
"Yes", he replied.
"You might want to take a look into this", I said as I threw another drive towards the headmaster. This has evidence about the conspiracy that William and Dorian planned and the reason behind the conspiracy, my fiance Elisha.
Though I never got any evidence regarding the rumours, I believe that at least the headmaster has a head on his shoulders to know what was happening. he can easily conclude who spread the rumours. The direct evidence regarding that, they can find it on their own. I am a student of the Royal Academy, not their servant.
There is going to be a storm in the near future, which will change the lives of a lot of people, including that of my family. This storm would clear a lot of thorns from my path and probably even in my father's path. I only see chaos in the future.
I look forward to the chaos that is about to descend, as this would be in my favour, no matter what.
Everyone thought that they were the kings or Queens and saw as a pawn. Now they would learn who is the pawn and who is the king.
